Jason smiled wryly when he saw Tommy's frustrated expression. He shook his head and went back to work.
Five minutes later, he stood up and said to Tommy, "Hey, Little Mr. Crawford, I can't do anything if you miss Ms. Luca, but I can bring you to someone else. Do you want to go?"
"Is it Madam Tina?" Tommy asked.
Tommy chuckled. Luca and Tina were about the same age, but to Tommy, the former was a "Miss" while the latter was a "Madam."
Tina would lose her mind if she found out about it.
"Yes. I'll need to attend a meeting with Mr. Crawford in a while. Why don't you go to Madam Tina's office?" Jason said. He did not want to leave the young child alone in his office.
"Alright then." Even though Tommy missed Luca, he did not want to burden Jason with extra trouble.
Jason took his hand, and they left the office. After handing him to Tina, he rushed to Luke's office to remind him that the meeting was almost starting.
It was already half-past nine when the meeting ended.
Tina had taken good care of Tommy. She made sure that he ate dinner on time, and she also got some supper delivered.
Luke officially got off work at ten o'clock. Tommy was already asleep on the couch in the secretary's office.
His heart melted when he saw Tommy sleeping soundly. Even though Tommy could be naughty at times, he was Luke's youngest child, and Bianca had been through a lot by giving birth to the boy. That was why Tommy was very special to him.
"Mr. Crawford," Tina stood up and greeted Luke when she saw him. She tried to keep her voice low so that she would not wake the sleeping child up.
Luke nodded, walked over to the couch, removed the quilt that covered Tommy, and picked him up.
"Thank you for your hard work. You can go home," Luke said before leaving the secretary's office.
Tommy did not wake up even though he was picked up. Instead, he snuggled into Luke's arms.
The elevator took Luke down to the basement parking lot. He carefully placed Tommy on the back seat, fastened the seatbelt on him, then removed his coat and draped it over the boy.
After that, he sat in the driver's seat and started the car.
Tommy was still fast asleep sitting in the backseat. In his dreams, he mumbled, "I miss you so much, Ms. Luca."
Luke was surprised. He looked at his son through the rear-view mirror and realized that he was sleep-talking.
He could not understand why Tommy was so fond of Luca, though he could guess that Tommy must be feeling very sad that he did not get to visit Luca today.
It was not a difficult request, but Luke had failed to fulfill it.
He thought for a while and turned the car around at the intersection.
Half an hour later, he parked his car under Luca's apartment.
Luke sat silently in the car. He was not sure why he drove all the way there. Was it to satisfy Tommy's wish?
However, it was already so late, and Tommy was already asleep. Going there would not make Tommy happy.
Moreover, by the time Tommy woke up, he would have forgotten why he was angry in the first place. He was not worried that Tommy would bear a grudge against him.
Suddenly, Luke heard a slight noise coming from the backseat. He turned around and saw that Tommy was already awake. The boy rubbed his eyes and looked at his father, "Daddy, aren't we going home?"
After knowing that Luke did not force Luca to work overtime, Tommy had stopped being angry at his father.
"…"
Tommy realized that the car was not moving. He sat up, looked out of the window, and instantly recognized that they were in front of Luca's apartment.
