NovelEnglishChapter 1508
Luca deleted the text after reading it. Then, she leaned back in her chair with her phone in her hand. She closed her eyes.
She did not want Luke to know that she was uncomfortable, so pretending to be asleep was the best way out.
She thought about it for a while, then took out the earphones from her pocket and put them on.
They would be on the high-speed for more than seven hours. Luca planned to play dead for the entire journey so that Luke could not do anything with her.
She wanted to pretend to be asleep, but Luca really fell asleep.
She leaned her body against the window. Even when she was sleeping, she did not forget to stay away from him.
Luke looked at her occasionally nodding and wondered if he was that scary to her. She could have opted for a more comfortable position to sleep in.
At noon, the dining cart pushed past the first-class seats. Luke looked at the lunch box on the dining cart, frowned, and chose the meatloaf.
After the high-speed train staff handed the meatloaf to him, he asked, “Sir, what does your wife want to eat?”

Luke glanced at Luca, who was still sleeping. She was deeply asleep. She did not even wake up when it was tfor lunch.
“She’ll have what I have,” he said.
The staff took another meatloaf and handed it over when he heard his reply.
Luke scanned the QR code to pay, glanced at Luca, and then glanced at the meatloaf in front of him.
Bianca’s least favorite dish was meatloaf. Even though she was not usually a picky eater, she was not a fan of meatloaf at all.
He could not say he liked it but compared to the other choices, the meatloaf looked best.
Luke opened the box and took a few bites.
The people around them also ordered their food because it was mealtime. They started to eat.
Luca smelled the aroma of the food in her dream. She slowly opened her eyes. Before she could see the scene in front of her, she heard Luke’s voice. “You’re awake?”
She realized that she was still on the high-speed train. She slowly sat up straight, nodded, and said, “Mm.”
“Let’s eat,” Luke said.
“Eat?” Luca blinked. ‘Is it tfor lunch? I slept for so long?’
For sreason, as long as Luke or the kids were around, she could sleep soundly without using drugs to numb herself.
They were her best hypnotics…
“You were still sleeping when the food cart cover, so I ordered something for you,” Luke explained.
Luca looked at the table, and sure enough, there was a lunch box beside his thermos.
She opened it and realized that it was meatloaf.
Luca took another look at Luke’s lunch box and found that he had ordered meatloaf too.
This was the dish she hated most…
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“What?” Luke noticed that she was looking at the lunch box. It seemed like she did not intend to eat it.
“It’s nothing. I’m not hungry, so I’ll just leave it for now.” Luca did not like this dish, so she lost her appetite when she saw it.
She had breakfast this morning, so she reckoned that it would not matter if she did not eat lunch since they would reach B City before dark.
She could just eat whatever she wanted after getting off the high-speed train and arriving at the hotel.
“Not a fan of meatloaf?” Luke asked suddenly.
Luca blinked and shook her head quickly. “No, I’m just not hungry.”
“This was the most appealing option out of all the food on the dining cart just now. I didn’t know that you also don’t like eating meatloaf,” Luke ate a mouthful of vegetables and said in a neutral tone.
Luca’s heartbeat a few beats faster. ‘He said… also?’
It meant that he still remembered that she did not like eating meatloaf.
However, she was Luca, not Bianca, which explained his choice of words.
“No, I’m not a picky eater. The high-speed train meal just doesn’t look appetizing…” Luca opened the lunch box, grabbed the utensils, and took a bite.
