"I love them!" Tommy immediately shook his head. He enjoyed everything Luca made!
He did not expect their father to suggest something so ordinary to eat.
"As long as she makes it, I'll love it," said Luke.
Tommy nodded and then heard his brother remind him, "Daddy is just worried about Ms. Luca. He doesn't want her to be too tired."
Luke threw him a glance of appreciation.
It made sense that the eldest son was the smartest. Luke had not said anything, but Lanie could understand his intentions.
Whether it was barbecue or tacos, even if Aunt Neile were to help, Luca would be busy. Hence, Luca suggested having a simple meal, which would make it much easier for Luca.
"Are we doing something wrong, then..." Tommy thought to himself. There were three meals, and their mother would probably have to prepare for a long time...
He did not want to make his mother tired either. The kids began to reflect on whether they should not have been so noisy just now and whether they should not have made such unreasonable demands.
"You didn't do anything wrong. It's the weekend. You deserve good food. And cooking for you all doesn't tire me," Luca said to the kids.
The three kids’ expressions becrelaxed when they heard Luca say so.
Even though only Tommy said it out loud, they all felt the sway, thinking that the requests they made were too much for Luca.
"That's great, Ms. Luca. I'll help!" Rainie spoke first.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I'll help too!" Lanie and Tommy chimed in.
"Good, then you'll all help, and we'll enjoy good food together!" Luca smiled at them.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the living room beclively again.
Aunt Neile walked out of the kitchen. She had been listening to their conversation all along.
Over the years, Aunt Neile had watched the kids grow up.
Bianca changed drastically after losing her memory. Not only was she unable to take care of the kids, but she also caused trouble for Luke. Aunt Neile had seen Luke being busy with work while also taking care of the kids all these years. It was not easy.
Now, with Luca around, it seemed that many burdens could be relieved. Aunt Neile thought to herself that if Luca stayed in this family, the atmosphere of this family would only get better.
At the thought of this, Aunt Neile smiled, looked at them, and said, “Mr. Crawford, Ms. Craw, you're back."
"Yes, Aunt Neile. Thank you for tonight. You may go hnow," replied Luca. They were going to eat outside, so Aunt Neile delayed her off-duty tto take care of the kids at home.
"Okay, Ms. Craw,” said Aunt Neile as she took off her apron and prepared to hang it up in the kitchen. Then, she heard Luke say, "Aunt Neile, Lliam is waiting for you outside. He'll drive you home."
"Oh, sir, there's no need to bother!" Aunt Neile immediately waved her hands. "How could I possibly accept that?"
"Aunt Neile, it's late, and it's not safe for you to go halone. We're worried, so let Lliam take you. Driving his quicker and won't take up as much time,” convinced Luca. She had been wondering why Luke asked Lliam to wait for a while a moment ago.
She thought Luke had to go out for something later, but she did not expect it was for Aunt Neile.
Luke was still very attentive, and he never mistreated those who were loyal to him.
Although Aunt Neile only did housework, Luke treated her well.
Luca thought to herself that she loved Luke not just for who he was but also for his qualities. He never looked down on others who helped out, despite his own wealth and background.
He never treated anyone poorly as long as they sincerely helped him.
Aunt Neile felt it would be impolite to decline further. Thus, she replied, "Alright. Thank you, Mr. Crawford. Thank you, Ms. Craw. I'll head off from work now."
"Okay, Aunt Neile." Luca nodded, then glanced down at the three kids. "Have you finished your homework?"
"All done! We were just waiting for Daddy and Ms. Luca to cback and check it!" answered Rainie.
They were obedient kids. The first thing they did when they chwas to do their homework. Even though they knew their parents would not cback immediately, they did not slack off or delay. They dropped their backpacks after coming hand began doing their homework at their desks.
This was basically their routine every day after school.
Luca was very satisfied. She nodded and looked at Luke. "I'll check the kids' homework. You may go ahead and do your work."
"Okay." Luke nodded. While they were on their way back, he checked a few emails.
Even though he left work on ttoday, it did not mean the employees at the company were not working overtime. He had to handle those emails too.
After Aunt Neile left, Luke went upstairs to work while Luca stayed downstairs with the kids.
They watched cartoons while she checked their homework. After checking, she reached for the signature space at the back of their workbooks. Tommy asked, "Ms. Luca, can you sign your own name instead of Dad's?"
"Huh?" Luca blinked her eyes in surprise.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"You always sign Daddy's name, but we want you to sign your own," added Tommy.
Luca understood what they meant and smiled. She shook her head and replied, "Not yet, but I promise I'll sign my own nin your workbooks in the future."
She then signed Luke's name.
Her nshould not appear in the kids's workbooks for now.
Luke had already set up a backstory for her old identity, so she was supposedly studying abroad now.
How could someone studying abroad suddenly cback?
If the teachers found out, they might suspect something. She did not know whether or not Abel had arranged someone at the school, so she had to be careful.
There was a flicker of disappointment in Tommy's eyes, but it was just a moment. He nodded. "Okay, Ms. Luca. We understand."
Luca knew the children were disappointed, but there was nothing she could do. After signing Luke's name, she told the kids to put away their workbooks.
They did not say anything else and put away their workbooks. By then, the cartoons had finished playing.
Luca went back upstairs with the children.
She glanced at Luke, who was working in the opposite bedroom. She then went back to the master bedroom to freshen up.
After washing up, she sat in front of the dressing table. With a pen and paper in hand, she began writing a list of groceries needed for the weekend.
The kids had requested food like tacos and barbecue, so they needed quite a few ingredients to make it enjoyable. Otherwise, the ingredients would be too limited, and it would not be as good.
Also, she had never made these things at hbefore. Hence, the kitchen might lack some seasonings. She had to write the list in detail to make it easier for Aunt Neile to help with the shopping.
While she was writing the list, Luke walked in and saw her busy doing something at the dressing table. He asked with concern, "What are you doing?"
"I'm making a grocery list. The kids want a lot of things, so I'm getting it all down. It'll be easier for Aunt Neile when she goes shopping," explained Luca, showing him her grocery list.
