”Got it.” Percy understood what he meant.
It was already midnight by the time they finished their drinking session.
After drinking, the three had their respective drivers drive them home instead of driving themselves.
Luke sat in the backseat while looking at the bright lights of A City. Even though it was already midnight, the streets were still lively as if the nightlife was never-ending.
“Boss, do you need me to turn up the heater?” Lliam asked faintly as he looked at Luke through the rearview mirror, who was silent the entire time.
“No need.” Luke withdrew his gaze and leaned back on the chair with his eyes closed. He drank a little too much today, so he was feeling a little tipsy.
He drank this much not because of Pierre but Luca…
The woman he loved most.
Luke wished that he could just get rid of the Island of Despair for good, but he could not do it yet for the sake of Luca’s health.
How long would he have to wait before Luca developed the antidote and escaped the clutches of the Island of Despair?
Lliam’s driving was stable, and the road was not busy, so he was able to send Luke back to his mansion in less than half an hour.
After entering the mansion, Lliam opened the back seat door. When he saw that Luke still resting with his eyes closed, he said in a low voice, “Boss, we’re here.”
Luke slowly opened his eyes to see the garden illuminated with the lights that Luca had left on for him.
The lamps emitted a warm light at night and were a sign that no matter how late it was, there would always be someone waiting for him at home.
Luke wobbled a bit when he got out of the car.
Lliam immediately went up to support him. “Boss, let me assist you.”
“It’s okay. It’s getting late, so you should go home. You don’t need to get up early to pick me up tomorrow. I’ll get another driver.” Luke waved his hand and followed the trail of lights into the house.
Lliam looked at him worriedly as he wondered if he would be alright after drinking so much.
He just stood there and watched Luke walk into the house before turning away once he was out of sight.
When Luke made it into the house, he took off his coat that was reeking of alcohol and sat on the couch.
The maid walked out after hearing noises, and when she saw him, she asked concernedly, “Mr. Crawford, did you just come back?”
“Yes.” Luke leaned against the sofa and planned to sober up first before going upstairs.
“Would you like some hangover tea? Ms. Craw prepared it and said that you should have some when you come back,” said the maid.
“Sure.” Luke rubbed his swollen temples.
It had been a long time since he last drank so carelessly, so he was dizzy with a headache when the alcohol hit.
The maid brought out the hangover tea and placed it on the coffee table. “Here, have some, Mr. Crawford.”
Luke picked up the cup of warm hangover tea and instantly knew that Luca had thoughtfully placed the cup in hot water to keep it warm as the bottom of the cup was wet.
He tilted his head back and downed the soup. Immediately after that, his headache was alleviated.
However, he knew that it was just a placebo effect since Luca was the one who prepared the hangover tea for him.
The warm tea slid down his throat and into his stomach. It made him feel warm and cozy…
“Sir, would you like more?” the maid asked as Luca had prepared two cups of tea.
“No need, you can go rest.” Luke stood up and headed upstairs.
He gently pushed open the door to Luca’s bedroom and walked to the edge of the bed. He did not make much noise and was about to lie down with his clothes on.
