If she were some other woman who got kidnapped and was threatened with a knife, she would have been so
frightened till she started begging for mercy or she would just pass out.
However, Luca was unusually calm. She did not cry or ask for forgiveness even when someone was holding a knife
in her face, which was covered by a gunny bag.
She was different from the others.
The man who held the knife was slightly surprised. He sneered and kept the knife away.
Luca could sense that the knife was kept away. She said, "I can't breathe with the gunny bag over my head."
“Cut the nonsense. Believe it or not, my brother and I will kill you right now!” Another man was feeling uneasy
because of her unusually calm demeanor. He was trying to frighten Luca with his loud voice.
"I know both of you don't want me to see you, that's why you covered my head with a gunny bag. I'm guessing
you're also wearing masks right now. How are you going to explain to the mastermind behind you if I run out of
breath?" Luca was not afraid of his loud voice.
"You!" The man was pissed off after she got on his nerves.
"Enough. Take the gunny bag off of her," another man said with a deep voice. They had put on masks before they
took action to prevent people from seeing their faces.
The gunny bag was meant to make the woman lose her sense of direction.
There was another simple reason behind their action. It was because the mastermind told them that the woman in
front of them was good at kicking. She was not an easy target.
The man heard him and took the gunny bag off Luca's head while cursing.
Luca looked down, only to see that her hands and legs were tied together. Even though she was pretty good at
kicking, she would not be able to break herself free anytime soon.
"Were you sent by Pierre?" She tried to sound them out.
One of the men sneered while another stuck a piece of cloth into her mouth. "I didn't take the gunny bag off your
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthead to listen to your bullsh*t. Shut up."
Luca did not struggle when the man shoved the cloth into her mouth. It was useless for her to struggle now.
She turned to look at the windows.
The man noticed her gesture and hurriedly pulled the curtains. Luca turned around and shot him a cold glance with
a menacing look in her eyes.
The man shivered for a moment when he saw the look in her eyes.
The woman's gaze was terrifying, and there was a hint of menace in it. It seemed like she was not a woman who
could be messed with.
The man felt a little regretful, but he came back to his senses all of a sudden. It was merely a glance, and there
was nothing to be afraid of. Why should he regret doing this?
The mastermind behind them was a rich man. They would receive a reward with a huge amount of money if they
handled this well.
Luca noticed the van was still new and clean. Why were they using such a good van to kidnap her?
Even if it was not Pierre, it looked like the mastermind who was behind this was a wealthy person. Otherwise, they
would not have been able to use such a good van.
However, if Pierre was not the one behind this, who was? Why did they kidnap her?
She was just an ordinary person in A City.
Luca could not figure it out.
On the other hand.
Luke drove back to Crawford Manor. Tommy came to him the moment he stepped into the house. “Daddy, what did
you do today?"
“I tried out some dishes," replied Luke. He took his coat off, which the maid took from him.
Luke looked at his youngest son as he pestered him. He knew the child would throw a tantrum if he did not explain
to him.
"Why didn't you bring me along to try the dishes? I want to eat something delicious too." Tommy looked upward
with a greedy look on his face while wondering why his father did not bring him along.
Luke stroked the back of his head and thought of the DNA test result. "Where's Lanie and Rainie?"
"They're reading upstairs," Tommy answered honestly. However, he felt unhappy and pouted his mouth.
"Ask them to head to your bedroom. I have something to tell all of you," said Luke.
Tommy nodded as he broke into a run and headed upstairs.
Old Master Crawford, who was sitting in the living room, asked curiously, "What are you going to tell the kids? Can I
join too?"
"Grandpa, it's about them." Luke decided not to tell him.
The old master had always wanted him to have a normal family. He would do something if he knew that Luca was
Bianca.
Bianca was still hiding her identity now. Hence, it would be inappropriate to tell the old master the truth.
"Alright. You should care more about your children. Lanie and Rainie's class teacher came to visit today. She told
me about how the kids are doing at school. Rainie is obedient and behaves herself at school. She enjoys having fun
with the other kids. But the teacher told me Lanie seems to be an asocial person." Old Master Crawford told him
what the children's class teacher had told him.
Luke raised his brows. Lanie's personality was similar to his. He was cold and quiet, but not completely unsociable.
Lainie just thought that the things taught in school were too simple for him, and his classmates were too childish. It
was not a big deal.
He was the child's father, so he naturally knew about it.
If it were not because Rainie was studying in the same class as him, he would have let Lanie skip a grade.
Although Rainie was good in her studies, she was not as smart as Lanie. She would not be able to catch up if she
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfollowed her brother and skipped a grade.
Luke chose not to let Lanie skip grades so that both of them could be together. The children understood why he did
so too.
"Alright. I'll talk to him," said Luke.
Old Master Crawford shook his head as he knew it would be useless.
It was because Luke had behaved like that too when he was young. Like father, like son. Lanie resembled his father
in some ways.
Furthermore, Luke raised Lanie all by himself since the child was young. It was normal for him to resemble his
father.
Luke went upstairs and entered Tommy's bedroom. The three of them were sitting on the rug, waiting for him.
"Daddy, Tommy said you have something to tell us. What are you going to tell us?" Rainie's voice was sweet and
lovely. She gave him a smile and showed her little teeth.
Luke looked at his daughter. He noticed that she resembled Bianca a lot. She was a mini Bianca.
However, Bianca's looks had changed now. If he told them Luca's real identity, would they be able to accept that?
Would they be able to accept that their mother had come back with a different appearance and approached them
with a different identity? Could they accept the fact that she lied to them?
Luke hesitated for a moment.
Tommy sat there and looked at his Daddy. Then, he said, "Daddy, did you take my hair for a DNA test that day?"
Luke looked at his youngest son. He was usually so innocent, but he was always smart when it mattered most.
Lanie and Rainie looked at him. "Daddy?"
Tommy had never mentioned it, so they did not know about it. They got even more curious after finding it out. Who
did their father do the DNA test on using Tommy's hair?
Luke closed the bedroom door. Then, he sat on the rug for the first time.
Usually, he would not sit on the rug when he was spending time with the kids. He would choose to sit on the chair. It
was because he thought that such sitting posture was bad for him.
