Chapter 1294 Her Darling

Tommy stared blankly at her with tears in his eyes as if he would baw! his eyes out if she said she

did not like him.

Luca was mad at herself. She thought she had hurt his feelings with the tone of her voice.

“Ms. Luca, I won't bother you. Please don't dislike me.” Tommy rubbed his eyes as he tried to

contain his tears. Just the sight of him would melt anyone's heart.

“No, I don't dislike you. Stop overthinking.” Luca grabbed his hand and said, “I just went to the

supermarket. Guess what I bought?”

Tommy still had tears in his eyes as he looked up at her. At least he was somewhat distracted now.

“What?”

“Your favorite snack,” replied Luca as she opened the drawer. She was going to be here for two

weeks and would meet Tommy anytime, so she prepared them.

She picked up a bag of chips that kids liked and handed it to him. “Here you go. Treat this as an

apology from me. Don't be sad, okay?”

“You didn't do anything wrong.” Tommy was very happy when he saw the bag of snacks that he

liked. His eyes were sparkling with delight, and the tears that were welled up in them before were all

gone.

He knew Luca pampered him when he saw the drawer full of snacks.

From that moment onward, he had no reason to be sad anymore.

Luca watched as he tore open the bag of snacks. She brought him over to the sofa and said to him,

“Tommy can I tell you something?”

“Is it about going to your friend's house?” asked Tommy as he bit into a piece. He knew what was on

her mind even if she did not say it.

Luca nodded.

Tommy asked again, “Ms. Luca, can I follow you?”

“This is a very important matter, I can't bring you with me. Besides, it might be a little dangerous,”

replied Luca as she caressed his face.

“Dangerous?” Tommy tilted his head as he thought about what she just said. After a while, he asked

her, “Are you going to do something good? Like that time you saved me?”

“I guess so... I can't bring you along with me. If I put you in any danger, I'll feel very guilty,” said

Luca. She had no intention of fooling him. After all, he was a smart kid. If she tried to fool him, he

might realize it.

Even though she was confident in protecting him, she did not want him to experience too many

things like this.

After all, her darling had to grow up in a warm and safe environment.

Tommy suddenly understood what she meant. He replied, “I understand, Ms. Luca. I'll wait for you

here.”

“I'm worried about leaving you alone here, so I'll send you back.” Leaving a kid in the room alone

was not the safest option

“But Daddy should be out by now...” Tommy took another bite of the snack as he tilted his head. He

was sent here because his father would be going out for a discussion, after all

“Then...” She suddenly thought of another person, so she said to him, “I'll send you over to Rhett's

place and I'll come to pick you up when I'm done, okay?"

She did not want to ask Dr. Albus and the others. These people were a bunch of gossips, so she

could not be bothered. Rhett was the only one she could trust.

"Alright, Ms. Luca.” Tommy nodded.

Luca breathed a sigh of relief when he agreed with her. She then said to him, “Let's go over there

right now. I'll leave after I drop you off. By the way, don't tell anyone else what I'm about to do.”

“Not even Daddy?” Tommy asked.

Luca thought about it for a moment and then nodded. She extended her hand for a pinky promise.

“It's better not to tell him. I don't want too many people to know. This is our secret, okay?”

Tommy extended his hand and hooked his pinky with hers. After that, Luca brought him to Rhett's

room.

After leaving the child to him, she went back to her room, changed into a set of clothes, and left the

hotel.

Luca hailed a cab and gave the driver the address that Paul gave her.

The moment she left the hotel, Luke immediately caught wind of it. He then asked the person on

the other end of the call, “Did she bring Tommy along?”

“Boss, Dr. Craw didn't bring Tommy with her. She left him at Rhett Link's place,” said the person on

the line.

Luke responded, “Mm.” After two seconds, he then instructed, “Continue following her.”

“Yes, Boss.”

After Luke knew that Luca went to the police station, he arranged for some people to follow her.

They had undergone professional training. If they did not expose themselves, it would be very hard

for Luca to suspect anything

Jason sat beside the driver's seat as he listened to Luke's instructions. He thought to himself, “It

seems that Luca does have some motives of her own. Boss was right.’

They could bring Tommy to the place that they wanted to go, but they deliberately left him with

Luca.

However, she still managed to find a solution to Luke's challenge.

Interesting...

Jason turned around and looked at the man in the back seat. The sky was getting dark, and his face

was hidden in the shadows. As the street lights flashed past, his arrogant and dignified aura was

magnified infinitely by the light.

“Boss, what is Dr. Craw going to do?” Jason asked. He was getting more and more curious about

Luca.

Luke replied coldly, “We'll know when she gets to her destination.”

Jason smiled. Dr. Craw was about to make his boss go on a chase...

Luke had done many things before, but Luca was still a mystery to him. However, she did not seem

malicious at all.

Jason was patiently anticipating the day his boss would expose Luca's true identity.

Luca sat inside the cab and glanced at the car following her.

It seemed that the car had been following her ever since she got out of the hotel. Was she

mistaken?

Luca noticed the distance between them and smiled. She was unsure if Luke sent people to follow

her or if it was Abel.

She looked at the driver and said to him, “Excuse me, I'm in a little bit of a rush. Can you drive a little

faster?”

The cab driver was a straightforward man. The moment she gave her instructions, he gave her the

“okay’ sign and stepped on the gas pedal.

The cab was now twice as fast as before.

Luca looked back once more. The car behind them had picked up the pace as well.

At that moment, she was sure that the car behind her was not tailing them by coincidence. The

driver had motives.

Luca looked at her phone and checked the location of her destination. She then decided to get off

two streets away from the place.

When the driver took the money, he said to her, “This area is a little shady. You'll have to be careful

out here.”

“I got it,” said Luca as she took the change from the driver. She got out of the cab and saw the other

car waiting in the distance. She grinned.
