Rainie's words left Luke speechless.
"Who taught you to say that?" Luke’s mood darkened as he took Rainie's hand.
‘If I could say such sweet words to Luca, why wouldn’t I?’
If he did, he was afraid that he would scare Luca off. It would not be worth the loss if she opted to retreat and escape...
Moreover, he did not like to use his words to show his affection. He believed that his actions spoke louder than words.
However, the situation that Luca was in did not allow him to act so recklessly. After all, she still had some scruples holding her back.
Luke did not act as he did before considering that she could not reveal her identity. Plus, there was still someone who was manipulating her behind the scenes.
"No… No one taught me to say that. I just think that what Aunt Nina said made sense..." Rainie shrank her neck and could not help but wonder. She overheard the adults speak, so she thought that that was how things should be. That was why she repeated it to Luke.
"This does not apply to Ms. Luca. Anyway, she can't run away. You’re a kid. You should be good and stay out of adult matters." Luke urged. He did not want the kids to overthink.
"I know, Daddy..." Rainie nodded.
"I still have some things to attend to. You should go downstairs," Luke said as he continued to work on the documents.
His recent workload had increased due to the acquisition of Hampton Company on top of preparing to win over the development rights of the suburban land.
The busier he got, the more things he had to deal with.
Luke could only squeeze some time here and there. He even asked Lliam to drive him to and from work so that he could work in the car.
However, he did not feel tired. He slept with Luca in his arms every night, so no matter how little he slept, he would always wake up feeling full of energy. It was unlike before when he needed to rely on cups of coffee to keep his energy level up.
Downstairs, Luca brought the breakfast she prepared to the table. She did not see Rainie, so she asked, "Has Rainie woken up yet?"
"Rainie went to look for Daddy," Lanie sat in the chair and replied.
Luca nodded in response. She guessed that the father and daughter had something to discuss in secret, so she did not say anything.
She walked into the kitchen again and placed Luke's breakfast on the tray. "Aunt Neile, please send this upstairs."
Luke could eat breakfast while working. However, it would affect his digestion and it would not be good if the children modeled after his behavior. Hence, he never ate while working at the dining table.
He would only do that in the study.
"Okay." Aunt Neile picked up the tray and was about to head up when she thought of Luca's health. She stopped in her tracks and asked, "By the way, Ms. Craw, do you want me to prepare some brown sugar tea for you today?"
"I don't need it today." Luca was stunned. Her body was not so fragile that she needed to drink brown sugar tea often. She only drank it because Luke asked Aunt Neile to prepare it.
"Brown sugar tea is good for a woman's body," Aunt Neile said.
"My period is almost over, so I don’t need it." Luca shook her head, put on some mittens, and took the toasted bread out of the kitchen.
Rainie had finished talking to Luke and was sitting in the chair by the dining table.
"Let’s eat," Luca told them as she put the toasted bread on the table.
The three children obediently ate the bread and milk.
