“Mm,” Luke replied. He did not know why his daughter suddenly said that.
Rainie continued, “I dreamed of Mommy last night. She told us to be good and listen to you. She also said that she’s
always by our side.”
Luke’s grip on the steering wheel tightened subconsciously. When Rainie mentioned her Mommy, he inadvertently
thought of Luca.
By now, the Normans must be suspecting Luca.
Luke had deliberately planned that. When the children asked him to invite Luca to tell them a bedtime story, he did
not object.
He wanted the Normans to see the scene in the bedroom.
Luca’s true identity was still under suspicion. Luke hoped to protect the Normans. After all, Jack and Queenie were
Bianca’s birth parents.
Even though Luca had cured Queenie’s illness, he could not help but think that Luca had deliberately approached
them.
That was why Luke came up with that plan.
“That’s not fair, Rainie. I didn’t dream of Mommy.” Tommy did not sound too happy.
Rainie smiled and patted Tommy’s head. “Mommy told me to take good care of you.”
“I wish I could dream of Mommy too.” Tommy crossed his arms in front of him like a little adult. However, he soon
grinned when he remembered that Luca had hugged him to sleep the night before. “Ms. Luca hugged me to sleep
last night. I slept very well too.”
Rainie smiled and gently pinched Tommy’s cheeks.
She could sense that among the three of them, Tommy was the most fond of Luca. Perhaps it was because he was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe first to know Luca. Moreover, Luca had saved him before.
As for Lanie and herself…
Rainie stole a glance at her twin brother. Lanie was sitting there coolly, unwilling to join in the conversation.
Even though Lanie did not say anything, Rainie could tell that he did not hate Luca. It was just that he did not know
how to express it.
For the past three years, the woman who had impersonated their mother did not give them enough motherly love,
and that had made Lanie’s personality even more aloof than ever.
Tommy leaned onto the driver’s seat and said, “Daddy, when are you bringing us to go on a vacation? You should
bring Ms. Luca along too.”
“We’ll see.” Luke did not give a direct answer. “Go back to your seat. It’s dangerous.”
Tommy pouted. He was not too happy that Luke did not agree with him.
‘Sigh, I want to go on a vacation with Ms. Luca…’
Rainie could sense that Tommy was unhappy. She took out a piece of candy from her pocket. Queenie had given it
to her before they left.
“Here, have some candy,” she said as she handed it to Tommy.
Tommy immediately smiled when he took it. “You’re the best, Rainie.”
Luke glanced at the three children in the rear-view mirror. He swore to protect them, for they were the children of
his most beloved Bianca.
Back at Crawford Manor, Tommy excitedly told Old Master Crawford about what happened at the Norman
residence. The old man was entertained by Tommy’s stories.
Luke went upstairs to settle some company matters.
Even though all the T Corporation employees were still on vacation, the company’s operations did not stop. He had
to deal with the business emails he received in his mailbox, as well as the reports from the different subsidiary
companies.
Without Jason’s help, Luke would have to spend more time than usual dealing with them.
While he was hard at work, Old Master Crawford came into the study. “Luke, are you free for a chat?”
Luke stopped working and nodded. “Please have a seat, Grandfather.”
Old Master Crawford sat on the chair in front of the other desk. Bianca used to sit in that chair.
Luke had bought the desk and chair for Bianca when she first started her company. He wanted them to be able to
work together in the same room.
“I’ve heard from Tommy what happened last night. Did Luca sleep in the same room as you?” Old Master Crawford
asked. Tommy had told him everything, including the part where Luca told them a bedtime story and coaxed them
to sleep.
Old Master Crawford felt obligated to speak to his grandson about it.
“We didn’t sleep on the same bed,” Luke said.
“So, do you have feelings for her?” Old Master Crawford asked out of concern. Now that he knew Bianca was an
impostor and the real person was nowhere to be found, he wished for Luke to find another wife to take care of the
children. However, Luke had to handle the matter with the utmost care. Old Master Crawford did not want to see
Luke’s reputation ruined. Worse yet, T Corporation might be affected too.
“I don’t have any feelings for her, Grandfather.” Luke immediately denied it. He could tell what the old man was
thinking. “Sleeping in Bianca’s bedroom made the children miss their mother. I only asked to help the children
sleep.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOld Master Crawford frowned. He did not believe what his grandson said.
Seeing that Luke remained impassive, Old Master Crawford sighed and stood up. “In the family, only you and I know
what happened to that impostor. I’m not against you looking for a new mother for the children, and I’m happy that
the children seem to accept her. She’s a good candidate, but you’ll have to make sure you don’t let anyone get any
dirt on you. Also, the Normans don’t know about Bianca, right?”
“They don’t.” Luke could sense a ripple of emotion in his heart when his grandfather mentioned Luca.
Luke suddenly had an idea. ‘Maybe I can find out more if I apply some pressure on Luca.’
Outside the door, Susan had been eavesdropping on their conversation. She was utterly dumbfounded by what she
heard.
‘Bianca is an impostor? The Bianca that’s supposed to be studying overseas is an impostor? Where’s the real
Bianca then? Has she never come home at all?
‘How interesting…
‘No wonder that impostor Bianca left the household without any announcement. Luke said that she’s studying
overseas, but he’s probably keeping her captive somewhere. Who knows, she might not even be alive anymore…’
Luke was Louis’s elder brother and was more capable. Because of him, Susan and Louis had a lowly status in the
household.
‘It’s time…’
She thought of using the information about the impostor Bianca to overthrow Luke. If Luke left T Corporation, the
board of directors would definitely recommend Louis to take over…
Susan smirked as she plotted her next move. She was very confident after knowing that Bianca was an impostor. If
the Normans knew that Luke had feelings for another woman and did not intend to search for the real Bianca, Jack
would be furious.
He might impose sanctions on T Corporation. When the directors knew what happened, they would not stand on
Luke’s side.
