Chapter 1136 The Mysterious Benefactor
Tommy looked at the snacks in his hands and pouted. "Ms. Luca, after I go home, will I ever get to see you again?"
Luca thought for a while. She wanted to meet the child in the future too. She took a piece of notepaper and wrote
her phone number on it. "This is my phone number. If you miss me, you are welcome to call me any time. We can
also have a video call. What do you think?" "This is great!" Tommy grinned. He had a phone, but he did not bring it
in case they were able to track his location with it.
Luca was reluctant for Tommy to leave, and she knew that her reluctance was growing by the minute. She opened
the door and said, "Let's go."
Tommy held her hand, and the two people went downstairs.
When they stepped out of the elevator, Luca noticed the bodyguards in black suits. She asked Tommy, "Is that one
of your Daddy's men?"
Tommy could recognize a few of them. He nodded and said, "Yes!" "Go then. Be a good boy, alright?" Luca could
guess that his father would scold him when he returned home.
"Aren't you sending me over there?” Tommy looked at her reluctantly.
"I don't think I should. I'll just watch you from here." Luca let go of Tommy's hand. She did not want the bodyguards
to tell Luke about her.
Tommy could only walk over alone while frequently turning back to look at her.
Luca waved at him. She only left after seeing Tommy return to the bodyguard's side.
Those people shall not know about her.
The bodyguards asked Tommy many questions, though Tommy did not answer them. When he turned his head
again, Luca was already gone.
Tommy felt very dejected.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe bodyguards noticed that Tommy was feeling down. They asked," What's wrong, Master Tommy? Are you feeling
unwell?" "No." Tommy felt a little better after looking at the snacks in his hands and thought about the phone
number in his pocket. "I'm tired. Bring me home." "Yes!" The bodyguards were relieved that they found the boy.
They escorted him to the car while informing Jason about it.
Jason relayed the news that Tommy was found to Luke.
Luke instantly abandoned his work and drove straight home. Tommy was already sitting on the couch while being
surrounded by a few people.
"You're back, Sir," the butler said courteously.
Tommy was startled when he heard that. He hopped off the couch and wanted to run away.
"Tommy," Luke called him and blocked his way.
Tommy lifted his head and looked at Luke's stern face. He looked at Old Master Crawford, knowing that his great-
grandfather was the only person who could save him.
He had already told Old Master Crawford everything the moment he got back to Crawford Manor, including the fact
that a woman named Luca had taken him in for the past two days.
"Where have you been since yesterday?" Luke asked. Jason had only told him the general area where the
bodyguards found Tommy, but that was all they knew. No one had provided them with any leads, and Tommy had
appeared in front of the bodyguards all of a sudden.
"Hmph!” Tommy pouted and did not answer his father's question. He knew that his great-grandfather would protect
him.
Even though he was back home, he was still angry at Luke!
Luke's expression sank. Before he could lose his temper, Old Master Crawford took Tommy's hand. "Tommy, are
you hungry?"
I'm hungry, Great-Grandpa," Tommy immediately answered.
"Alright, let's go and have dinner.” Old Master Crawford was furious after hearing what Tommy had to say. That was
why he sided with his great- grandson.
Lanie and Rainie exchanged glances, and the four people went into the dining hall.
The only people left in the living room were Luke, who was still angry, and the butler.
"Mr. Griffin," he called out sullenly.
"Yes, Sir." The butler stood behind him and nodded.
"Where has Tommy been for the past two days?" Luke asked.
"According to Master Tommy, a young woman took him in. Earlier, the woman saw the bodyguards going around
her neighborhood looking for Tommy, so she let him go," the butler said. "The woman has taken good care of
Master Tommy. When Master Tommy was found, his clothes were clean, and he was holding a pile of snacks in his
hands. It seemed that he had an easy time." "Did he say who that young woman was?" Luke placed his hands in his
pockets. Why would someone take Tommy in but not identify herself?
Did the woman not know who Tommy was?
"Yes, but...” The butler paused.
"Speak." "Master Tommy only told the identity of that woman to Old Master Crawford, and I did not hear who she
was. Moreover, Old Master Crawford doesn't want you to know who that woman is," the butler said.
Old Master Crawford knew that Luke would be suspicious. If Luke knew the identity of the person who took in
Tommy, he would send someone to investigate her.
That person had taken Tommy in without asking for anything in return, and she was not willing to reveal herself. It
meant that she did not want to be disturbed, and that was why Old Master Crawford did not tell anyone else in the
Crawford family.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLuke sighed helplessly and went upstairs.
The butler looked at his strong and well-built back and sighed too.
Luke did not have it easy. Ever since Bianca lost her memories, he was caught between his wife and his children.
It had been two years since the last serious incident in the family. Any other family would have been devastated by
now.
At night, Tommy went back to his bedroom early.
Luke stood in the corridor. He leaned against the wall and faced Tommy's bedroom door.
Rainie came out of the bedroom and saw her father. "Tommy is fine, Daddy, " she said.
"Mm." Luke nodded. He did not knock on the door, nor did he ask the little boy to come out and face him.
"He might be angry at you now, but he'll probably forget about it by next morning." Rainie was a sensible girl. She
comforted her father.
Luke looked at her and asked, "Do you know who was the person who helped your little brother?”
Rainie nodded and said, "I know, but I can't tell you."
Tommy had already told Lanie and Rainie about Luca when he got back. He also said that he would bring them to
meet her.
"Why?" Luke frowned.
"Old Master Crawford told me that if you find out who she is, you'll try to investigate her. That woman is a good
person, and she doesn't deserve to be disturbed!" Rainie said.
Luke frowned even harder when he heard what his daughter said.
The more Luke thought about it, the more confused he was.
Rainie smiled when she saw her father’s confusion. "I'll be back in my room studying, Daddy," she said.
"Mm." Luke guessed that Tommy would not be opening his bedroom tonight. He went back to his study.
Bianca came out from the bedroom. She had overheard Luke and Rainie's conversation earlier. That made her
even more curious about the mysterious benefactor's identity.
