Chapter 1311
Chapter 1311 She'll Be My Mommy
Luca was at the conference at Solomon's tof death, so she could not have been his killer. Even so, Luke could not help but have the feeling that was something more to the incident.
Luca could tell that Luke was trying to find out something, but she remained calm because there was no direct link between her and Solomon's death. She shook her head and said, "It's not surprising even if a fellow gang member did him in."
Amur was silent as he listened to Luke's probing questions.
The police had concluded that Solomon died in a gang conflict, so Amur did not have to say anything. In any case, the police would not track him down, and they would not disturb Luca either.
"Mm." Luke nodded. He had been observing Amur from the corner of his eye. Even though Luca had told him that they were not biological siblings, he could not help but think that they were not siblings at all.
When Amur cin, he caught a scent of drugs on his body.
Luke continued asking, "Mr. Amur, why did you cto New York this time?"
"I had sbusiness," Amur said.
Luca glanced at Luke, then at Amur. She could sense that the hostility between the two men was growing, so she tried to distract them. "Mr. Crawford, what are the police going to do with the two students?"
"The law will deal with them," Luke said. He did not show them any sympathy at all.
Luca had expected him to say that. Luke would show no sympathy to anyone other than his family, especially toward those who tried to harm him.

Luke raised his eyebrows. Amur sounded like a parent who tried to harbor their children's faults, though he was a little more than a child himself.
Amur continued, "But I can't forgive them if they try to harm my elder sister. We shouldn't let them get away with it so easily."
Luke nodded. "Of course."
Luca was not sure how to feel about the conversation. It was the first tLuke and Amur agreed on something.
The doorbell rang once more. "That should be the room service," Luca said.
At the stime, Luke stood up. ' Mm. I should head back."
When Tommy heard that, he also stood up, though he was feeling a little frustrated about why they had to leave so soon. His father would definitely not allow him to stay, so he did not ask in the first place.
Luca opened the door. Just as expected, the attendant pushed the meal cart in and took away the breakfast cart.
After the attendant left, Luke said at the door, "Finish your food."
"Yes." Luca nodded, though her heart began to beat faster when Luke said that.
Amur did not know what to feel when he saw the change in her expression.
She might not have noticed it, but that single-word reply was filled with affection. It was as though she was a young girl speaking to her crush.
Luca turned around and met Amur's gaze. She smoothed her hair and said, "Have you had your dinner? If not, we can share the food."
"I've had dinner," Amur said. He could not hold it back anymore. "If you want to protect Luke Crawford, it's best that you keep your distance from him."
Luca's expression stiffened. She knew about that fact without him saying it. All of this would not have happened if she had not becLuke Crawford's wife.
If she did not want Luke and the children to get hurt, the best way was to stay away from him. However, it was easier said than done...
Before Luca returned to A City, she had thought of staying as far away from Luke as possible, but she failed to do so.
Even though there was a barrier between them, she could feel that they were getting closer and closer.
"I know..." She said.
Amur could sense the sorrow in Luca's eyes when she said that. He knew that she loved the man, and she was willing to sacrifice everything for him.
After his experiences on the Island of Despair, he thought that Luca was playing with fire.
"You can sacrifice yourself for that man, but you have to remember that Nyla needs you. She's still young, and she needs a mother," Amur reminded her. Nyla was the only reason why Luca remained alive...
Luca nodded. She clenched her hands into fists when Amur mentioned her youngest daughter. No matter what, she would have to bring Nyla away from the horrific island.
Amur sighed. Luca had saved his life, and he could not bear to see her suffer because of that man. He did not want to see her die...
He stood up and said, "You should eat your dinner. I'll be returning to my room."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Alright." Luca nodded. After Amur left, she looked at the food on the meal cart, but she had no appetite at all.
Tommy was led into the elevator by his father. He looked at Luke and asked, "Daddy, how could you let Ms. Luca be alone in the sroom with that man?"
"They're brother and sister." Luke tapped his access card on the sensor, and the elevator began to move upward.
Tommy nodded and said, "But they don't look alike at all, and I think that man has a crush on Ms. Luca."
Luke did not know how to respond to that.
Seeing that Luke did not speak, Tommy wagged his hand and said, "What are you thinking, Daddy?"
"Nothing," Luke replied.
"If you don't seize the opportunity, someone else might snatch Ms. Luca away," Tommy mumbled.
"Why do you say that?" Tommy's voice might be soft, but Luke could hear those words clearly in the cramped elevator.
Tommy looked at Luke. "I like Ms. Luca. I want to live with her."
'Live with her?'
Luke suddenly understood what Tommy meant. "You still have a Mommy."
Tommy frowned. "I know. I didn't dare to say that at first because I have a Mommy."
"Would you have said that if you didn’t have a Mommy?" Luke said jokingly. The elevator arrived at their floor, and Luke led Tommy out.
"Of course I would. If I don't have a Mommy, I'd want you to
marry Ms. Luca so that she can be my Mommy. Also..." Tommy paused.
Luke tapped his access card at the suite entrance. "Also what?" "Also, you don't like Mommy at all, not ever since she lost her memories." Tommy was young, but he was quite observant.
