Sophian was surprised when she heard how Allison described Bianca.
Sophian had always thought that successful men like Luke preferred sexy and alluring women. She did not expect
he would like women who were pure and innocent.
She lowered her head and looked at her body figure. There was no way her curvy figure could look innocent. She
could only change her makeup style to make her look that way.
“I got it," replied Sophian.
Allison raised her brows, looked at her, and asked, "Although Bianca looks innocent, her tricks aren't innocent at all.
She found ways to get closer to Luke and gave birth to two children. Only then was she acknowledged as his wife.
So, let me tell you, he might not like pure and innocent women. It's just that her tricks happened to work on him."
Sophian wanted to tell her that being good at wheedling was considered amazing too as long as she could attract
Luke.
However, Sophian dared not to say such things in front of Allison when she had shown so much hatred and disdain
for Bianca.
Then, Allison added, "I know there's another woman with Luke now. I know what the woman looks like. I assume
that's the kind of woman Luke likes. Let's talk about it again when the time comes."
Sophian cheered up a little. It would be much easier with Allison's help.
"Thank you, Ms. Allison." Sophian gave Allison a sweet smile.
Allison pulled a long face and reminded her, "Keep in mind how I'm helping you now. Don't let Luke find out about
this no matter whether you succeed or not."
"Okay, Ms. Allison." Sophian understood why she would remind her of this.
Allison said, "If you succeed, remember that I'm your mother-in-law. You'll have to think about me no matter what
you do in the future. If you fail, remember that I'm your senior. I helped you to achieve your dream, so don't burn
your bridges."
Sophian nodded vigorously.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe thought that it would be easier for her to succeed with Allison helping her.
Allison looked at Sophian's face. She could not help but let out a sigh. A face full of collagen sure looked pretty.
When would her face be able to go back to how it looked before?
Allison touched her face wistfully.
Sophian noticed a hint of melancholy flashing across Allison's eyes. Allison often had this expression on her face
when she was in Seoul. She walked toward her and said in a soft voice, “Ms. Allison, don't worry. The doctor is good
at his job. Many celebrities have gone to look for him to get their faces done. He has a lot of clinical experience. I'll
accompany you back to Seoul after the new year to get the surgery done. You'll be able to become beautiful again
after the surgery."
"You sure know how to say nice things. Everything you say is what I want to hear, and your words are pleasing to
the ears," replied Allison. She liked people who were honey-tongued.
Previously, Bianca would only say what she should be saying. She would behave submissively when she did not say
anything. However, she would refuse to listen to what someone told her, which was annoying.
Sophian slightly pursed her lips. She concealed her feelings and secretly rejoiced.
After spending some time with Allison, she knew Allison was the kind of person who did not like making a fuss over
petty things.
That was why Sophian did not reveal her joy.
In the villa.
After Luca knew Luke would be taking Old Master Crawford and the kids here this morning, she prepared some
homemade snacks and dessert early in the morning.
She used sugar substitutes to make the desserts so that the old master could eat them, and it was also to ensure
Old Master Crawford could enjoy himself without worrying.
Luca still remembered that Old Master Crawford liked the desserts she made when they went to the Rayne family's
house. That was why she prepared these for him.
Luca let out a sigh of relief after she was done preparing everything. She picked up a croissant and took a bite of it.
She enjoyed the buttery taste of it.
She had been busy all morning, so she had yet to have breakfast. She made the croissants last night, and it was her
dinner. She could not finish them all, so she left some for today. Although the croissant was not freshly baked, it
tasted fine. She took a few bites of it and poured herself a glass of milk.
Luca took a bite of croissant and took a sip of the milk. She had enough for her breakfast. Then, she placed the
other croissants back into the fridge.
She sat on the sofa in the living room with the TV turned on. The channel was replaying the show last night.
She watched it yesterday.
Luca fell asleep on the sofa while she watched TV. When she woke up, the New Year Gala had just finished counting
down. She received a message from Luke, and it was a New Year's greeting.
After she replied to Luke, she found out that he would be coming back tomorrow morning and did not ask too much
about it. Then, she took a shower and went to bed.
Hence, she missed out on a lot of interesting performances.
Luca watched the New Year Gala and suddenly heaved a sigh. What she had missed out on was not only this year's
New Year Gala. She had not had the chance to watch it for the past few years.
Then, she heard some noises coming from outside while she was lamenting.
Luca immediately picked up the remote control and turned down the volume. She put on her cotton slippers and
walked to the door. She saw that Luke was helping Old Master Crawford wa over, and the three kids were following
beside Luke.
Luke noticed that Luca was standing at the door waiting for them. It warmed his heart. It felt like home when Luca
was here.
Luca stood at the door, welcoming them back. Luke could not wait to run toward her and give her a warm hug.
“Luke, I can walk by myself." Old Master Crawford teased him when he noticed the slight change in Luke's
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmemotions.
"Grandpa, it's snowing heavily. Be careful." Luke put on a cold expression on his face. Even though he got teased,
he kept himself calm.
Old Master Crawford shook his head and mumbled to himself, "Let's see how much longer he can hold on."
Tommy was the fastest. He ran swiftly toward Luca and said, "Ms. Luca, we're back. I missed you."
Then, he grabbed Luca's hand and constantly rubbed it, showing how much he had missed her.
Luca did not know if she should cry or laugh when she looked at what Tommy was doing. She stroked his head and
said, "Hey, aren't you back now? Get in there. I made your favorite snacks."
"Really?" Tommy's eyes lit up as he ran into the house happily.
After Lanie and Rainie greeted Luca, they headed to the living room too.
They were children, after all. No matter how mature they were, they would not be able to resist good food.
Old Master Crawford looked at the children. He secretly felt happy for them. Luca was the only one who could make
the kids happy other than Bianca.
"Old Master Crawford, Happy New Year." Luca carefully helped Old Master Crawford up by holding another side of
his hand.
Old Master Crawford was delighted when the two of them were by his side, helping him. Then, he said in a cheerful
tone, "Happy New Year, Luca."
Luca glanced at Luke and blinked her eyes as a greeting to him. After Luke saw it, Luca shifted her gaze and helped
Old Master Crawford to the living room.
The living room was comfortable with the heater on. Old Master Crawford sat on the sofa. Luca said, "Old Master
Crawford, why don't you take off your jacket? It'll be too warm for you later."
"Okay." Old Master Crawford leaned his walking cane on the sofa and took off his jacket.
Luca took the jacket he handed to her. After she hung the jacket, Tommy, who could not find the snacks, came
running toward her. Then, he lifted his head and asked, "Ms. Luca, where are the snacks? I can't find them."
