Chapter 1341
Chapter 1341 Dr. Craw Is Not Bad
Sue and Jason wanted to invite Luca for dinner to thank her. They did not want to make it too restrictive, which was why they had planned for a home-cooked dinner.
Now that Luca had cto their house bearing gifts, it felt too formal.
It would be rude for Sue not to accept the gifts, so she took the bulging shopping bag from Luca's hands. "Thanks, but you shouldn't have. We should be the ones to thank you."
"You're welcome," Luca smiled and said. She saw Jason cout of the kitchen wearing an apron. She smiled and said, "So this is how you look when you're out of a suit, Mr. Doyle."
Jason smiled. "Don’t tease me, Dr. Craw. Sue, what do you plan to do with the fish?"
"How about roasting it with herb stuffing?" Sue said, then turned to ask Luca, "Dr. Craw, do you like roast fish? Letknow if you'd rather eat something else. We've prepared a lot of ingredients today."
"I'm not picky. I'd be glad to eat whatever you serve," Luca said.
"If that's the case, I'll make you all my favorite dishes!" Sue said. She handed the shopping bag to the caretaker, then rolled up her sleeves and went into the kitchen as though she was ready to showcase her skills.
Jason could not help but smile when he saw Sue's expression.
He knew the level of Sue's culinary skills. She would rather stay away from the kitchen, but she had to learn how to cook so that her children could eat healthily.
Jason had tasted Luca's cooking while in New York, and he could tell that Luca was a far better cook than Sue.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Sue, Dr. Craw is a very good cook. I tried her cooking once in New York. It tastes better than many of the popular restaurants you can find here," Jason said.
'Really? I'd like to try." Sue widened her eyes in excitement when she heard that. She was a huge food lover.
"But Sue..." Jason cleared his throat, reminding her that they were the hosts tonight, and Luca was the guest. It would be inappropriate to ask their guest to cook for them...
"I'd love to taste your cooking sother day, Dr. Craw. You'll have to taste mine today," Sue said with a wide grin on her face.
"Of course," Luca replied with a smile. She was happy to see this other side of Sue's personality.
It meant that Sue treated her as a friend.
Sue went into the kitchen and said to the caretaker, "Make a cup of tea for Dr. Craw. Dr. Craw, please make yourself at home. Dinner will be served soon."
"Alright." Luca nodded and sat down on the couch in the
living room. She wanted to help, but her current identity was not that close to Sue yet, so she gave up on the idea.
The caretaker served her a small pot of tea. "Please have stea, Dr. Craw."
"Thank you." Luca poured herself a cup of tea and took a sip. Kari and Teri cover with their dolls and a dollhouse.
"Ms. Luca, can you play with us?" Kari said.
Luca nodded and said, ’’Alright."
Sue and Jason were busy in the kitchen.
"You say that Dr. Craw is a good cook?" Sue suddenly asked.
"Yes." After Jason gave his reply, he was afraid that Sue might overthink, so he added, "Little Mr. Crawford wanted to eat Dr. Craw's cooking while we were taking care of Mr.
Crawford in the hospital, so I was lucky to taste it."
Sue did not misunderstand him. After all, she trusted him.
She nodded and said, "Did any of you tell Bianca about how Luke ended up in the hospital over there?"
"I don't think anyone did. We were very busy in New York, and we barely returned to our hotels. Most of the twas spent in the office," Jason said. During that period, he rarely saw Luke do anything else outside of work, so Luke probably did not tell Bianca.
"So does that mean Bianca doesn't know?" Sue remembered how she had tried to hint about it to Bianca, but Bianca had given her an impatient reply. Subconsciously, she applied more strength to her knife.
"Are you still thinking of telling her?" Jason shook his head and took the knife from her hands in case she hurt herself because she could not control her emotions.
"No." Sue went to wash the vegetables instead. She replied," I think that Dr. Craw is a nice person. She also saved Kari's life, and she's considered your colleague. I don't think it's right forto speak ill of her."
"It's good that you understand," Jason said with a smile. His impression of Luca had changed over time. He thought that Luca was not the type of woman who wanted to get close to Luke because of his wealth.
In fact, he could tell that Luca would occasionally deliberately distance herself from Luke.
"Right, can you check with your boss to see if he's really coming?" Sue said. She was not the one who invited Luke. Of course, Jason did not invite him either.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLuke happened to be nearby when Jason was discussing with Sue over the phone about inviting Luca over for dinner. When he heard that, he asked if he could ctoo.
As his subordinate, Jason could not refuse.
"I've asked him earlier. He said that he’ll be here soon," Jason said.
Sue put the washed vegetables aside. She could hear the children playing happily in the living room. Occasionally, she could also hear them calling out "Ms. Luca." She guessed
that Luca and the girls were having fun together.
"I don't know why your boss wants to come. I bet Dr. Craw would be so surprised when she sees him later."
Jason shook his head and placed the fish on the baking tray. Suddenly, he said, "Don't you find Dr. Craw familiar somehow?"
"No," Sue shook her head and said. "I haven't been acquainted with her for very long, so I don't find her familiar."
"Sometimes, Dr. Craw givesthis feeling that I've known her for many years. I must have been mistaken though.
She's from Russia, and I don't think that I've met her before," Jason said.
Sue frowned slightly. Now that she thought about it, she realized that Luca seemed too friendly at times.
They had only met once, but she had tasked her younger brother to protect her and the children from the shadows.
"Right, have you met Dr. Craw's younger brother? Dr. Craw has Caucasian features, but her younger brother has ethnic features. How did that happen?" Sue tried to find smore information from Jason.
Jason handed the tray to her and said, "Dr. Craw said that their family adopted the boy when he was young, and that's why they don't look alike. I've cleaned the fish, and the rest is up to you.”
