All Luca could do at this point was help him feel at ease.
“Okay.” Luke nodded.
When Gordan heard him mention Vivian, he could not help but frown. “Why do you care about her, Dr. Craw?”
Luca shot him a helpless glance but did not respond. Instead, she said, “I’m heading downstairs.”
Then, she turned around and walked out of the bedroom, carefully closing the door behind her.
Gordan was left feeling puzzled. “Did I say something wrong, boss?”
“With Dr. Craw getting chummy with Vivian, what do you expect? She’s not going to let that slide,” teased Gale.
Gordan clicked his tongue. He knew that women usually defended each other, but he did not think Luca was that kind of person. Still, she seemed pretty annoyed with what he said.
At the thought of this, Gordan decided he needed to be more careful with his words around Luca in the future. Otherwise, he would just be asking for trouble.
…
Downstairs, Luca found Vivian deeply engrossed in a book.
“What are you reading?” Luca asked as she sat down next to her.
“It’s a book on architectural design. I saw it on the coffee table and just picked it up,” replied Vivian, smiling with her lips pressed together. “I didn’t expect it to be so interesting!”
“You can understand it?” Luca was a bit surprised.
“Not really, but I think the drawings are pretty cool.” Vivian shook her head and pointed at the book. “Look at this blueprint! Just from this, I can already picture how the courtyard will look. That’s why I find architectural design so fascinating.
"European-style courtyards are just so gorgeous! If I ever settle in A City, I'll definitely get a house with a European courtyard.”
“That sounds great! A lot of people in A City are choosing European-style courtyards over gardens these days. If you want to design one later, I’d be happy to help if you don’t mind,” offered Luca.
Vivian’s eyes widened. “You know architectural design, Luca?”
Luca froze for a second. Earlier upstairs, she had been chatting with them as Bianca.
She had not switched back yet. When she heard Vivian say that, she quickly made up an excuse. “Well, not really. I’ve just had some exposure to it. I was interested in it back in school, so I learned a bit. But honestly, it’s nothing compared to what Mr. Crawford knows.”
Vivian looked at her in awe. “That’s still impressive!”
“Nah, it’s not a big deal,” Luca replied modestly.
“Not a big deal? You know about pharmaceuticals, you’re awesome in medicine, and you even know how to fight! That’s incredible! I wish I could be as amazing as you one day,” replied Vivian. Her eyes were sparkling with admiration. “You’re seriously my idol.”
“Aww, you're making me feel kind of shy here.” Luca’s cheeks tinged with pink. No one had ever spoken to her like that before.
Vivian might have been exaggerating a bit, but she seemed genuine.
Luca was a little embarrassed. “If you’re interested in architectural design, I can grab a few introductory books for you to check out.”
"Really? That would be awesome!" Vivian was eager to explore fields she had not touched before.
Even though she had applied for a degree in business administration at Capital University, she could switch to any major that interested her as soon as she finished her language classes.
Now, she was in the exploration phase.
