Chapter 3397 Overwhelming Longing Chapter 3397 Overwhelming Longing As soon as Luca returned to her bedroom after dinner, she received a video call request from the kids.
It had been a long tsince she last saw them. When she saw the call request, she locked the door, put on her headphones, and immediately answered.
"Ms. Luca!" As soon as the call connected, the faces of all three kids appeared on the phone screen.
"Sweethearts!" Luca blew them a kiss.
"Ms. Luca, we miss you so much!" Tommy was the first to express how much they missed Luca.
Luca's heart stirred with waves of longing when she heard them.
She had been so busy recently, hoping to finish everything here quickly so that she and Luke could reunite with the kids. That was why she had not contacted them much.
Plus, with Old Master Crawford taking care of them, she felt at ease.
Now that Luca saw the faces of the three kids, her longing for them instantly surged and overwhelmed her. Her eyes reddened. "I miss you all so much too." Rainie, always the thoughtful one, noticed her emotional shift and comforted her, "Ms. Luca, we're being really good at Crawford Manor. Don't worry. We're already on summer vacation. We're doing our homework like we're supposed to and practicing calligraphy every day.
"Tommy doesn't like it, but I'll help him. You and Daddy are busy, so we'll be good and wait for you to finish everything and cback." They said daughters were the most thoughtful, and Luca felt her heart warm when she heard Rainie's words. She nodded and replied, "I know you all the best. Even though I'm not with you, I know you'll listen to us and make us proud." "Yes, Ms. Luca. You don't need to worry about us," all three kids said together.
Luca's mood lightened as she listened to them. "Also, now that the weather is cooling down, remember to cover yourselves with a blanket when you sleep at night. Make sure you're covered, or you'll catch a cold and feel bad." Even though they were being well taken care of, Luca still could not stop worrying.
"Got it, Ms. Luca. We're eating well and always cover up with our blankets at night. Mr. Griffin always checks on Tommy to make sure he's not kicking it off, so don't worry about us. We're doing great!" Rainie reassured her.

Hence, they were quiet and patient, just expressing their longing for their parents. They were waiting for their parents to handle everything and bring them home.
"Alright," replied Luca. Her heart was eased by her daughter's thoughtfulness.
Yes, they were being well cared for. She and Luke just needed to focus on their own tasks.
Once all the worries were settled, they could have a good life together with the kids.
Luca felt more energized at the thought of this.
No matter what, she and Luke would solve the problems at hand and bring all the kids back to their side to live the peaceful and happy life they once had.
Luca put on a smile at the thought of this.
After she ended the video call with the kids, she received a message from Luke.
[I've arrived at the base here. Someone will replacein a couple of days. Don't worry, everything is fine.] [Alright, stay safe.] Luca felt her worry finally ease when she read Luke's message.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Luca asked, "Who is it?" "Ms. Craw, it's me, Gerald." "What is it?" asked Luca.
"Ms. Sanchez isn't feeling well. She asked you to go over," answered Gerald.
Luca frowned, feeling like Hera was not actually unwell but was looking for trouble.
"Alright, I'll be right there." Luca pushed the door open.
Gerald stood there and quietly said, "Luca, I don't think Ms. Sanchez is actually unwell. She probably has something to discuss with you." "What does she need to discuss with me?" Luca wondered.
"What else could it be? It's about Lucius. There were other people around during dinner, so I couldn't say much. But she actually calledout earlier and asked for Lucius' contact information. I didn't have it, so I couldn't help her. She was upset and had a sour look on her face for quite a while," explained Gerald.
Even when he delivered food to her, Hera still had a scowl. She was clearly displeased that he did not know anything "Alright, I got it." Luca felt helpless. She did not expect Hera to still be so attached after Luke had already been reassigned.
Hera had barely seen him, so why was she so obsessed? This feeling cout of nowhere. Luke could hardly believe it, and it was the sfor her.
It made her wonder if Hera was being used by Abel to test Luke.
"Ms. Craw, please don't be mad. After all, Lucius has never paid her any attention." Gerald tried to calm her downl He knew how dangerous it could be when two women started competing over a man. He was trying his best to soothe Luca, hoping to avoid any confrontation between the two.
"Why would I be angry?" Luca looked at him, perplexed.
Gerald gave an awkward smile. "As long as you're not angry, that's fine." Luca found his reaction strange. Luke was an exceptional man, so it was understandable that someone would like him.
If she were to question him every tanother woman liked him, she would be angry all the time, and that would not solve anything.
Luca walked over to Hera's room and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" Hera's voice cfrom inside, sounding displeased.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLuca replied indifferently, "It's me, Ms. Sanchez. I heard you're not feeling well, so I cto check on you. May I cin?" "Cin." Hera's tone was haughty.
Luca pushed open the door.
Hera was sitting on the couch, her expression dark with frustration.
Luca walked over to her and asked indifferently, "Ms. Sanchez, where do you feel unwell?" "My heart," replied Hera, taking a drag from her cigarette. She was clearly annoyed.
It was as though something had upset her.
Luca was rendered speechless. "If it's he your heart, then only heart medicine can help. If you miss the boss, just call him." Hera blew out a puff of smoke. "Who told you I miss him?" After witnessing Abel's terrifying side, she had no desire to think about him at all.
Furthermore, she had just cinto a large sum of money, so for now she was not as not m thinking about him at all.
If she ran out of money one day, perhaps she would think about him then. Luca did not say anything.
Hera noticed her silence and pressed on. "Do you have Lucius' contact information?" "No," replied Luca.
"You can't possibly not have it. Aren't you two close? You two are so close, yet you don't have his contact info? Who are you trying to fool?" Hera refused to believe it. Luca raised an eyebrow. "Who told you that Lucius and I are close?" "Who else? Of course, it's Gerald!" Hera's tone was sharp. She was pushing Luca to give up Lucius contact details.
Luca turned her cold gaze toward the door, where Gerald stood.
Gerald immediately waved his hands frantically, signaling that he had nothing to do with it.
He had never told Hera anything! She was just making wild guesses! Besides, Luca and Lucius were indeed close. If anyone were to pay attention, they would easily notice it.
