Chapter 1134 "I love them!" Tommy nodded his head. Luca smiled and patted his head. She was Tommy's birth mother, and it was not surprising that they loved the same things even though it had been so long. Luca brought the shopping cart to the checkout counter. She had a shopping bag in each of her hands, while Tommy also carried one bag. The two people left the supermarket. "Where are we going now, Ms. Luca?" Tommy asked. His shopping bag was not heavy, and one of his hands clung to the hem of Luca's clothes in case he wandered away. "We're going home." Luca saw that his eyes were the only facial feature that was not covered. She was worried that he might not be able to take the late morning heat. "Okay!" Tommy smiled and nodded. The supermarket was a short walk from Luca's apartment. They arrived at the gate after walking for five minutes. Luca saw several men in black suits interrogating random people not far away. She felt nervous and lowered her head to look at Tommy. Tommy also noticed those people too. He lowered his head when he realized that they were his father's subordinates. "Keep calm and continue walking." Luca remained composed. She shifted the shopping bags to one hand, and the other hand took Tommy's hand as they walked toward the elevator. Fortunately, the bodyguards did not stop them After they got into the elevator, Tommy breathed a sigh of relief. "Phew, luckily they didn't see us," he said. "You'll have to go back sooner or later,” Luca reminded Tommy with a smile. "We'll worry about that some other time.” Tommy did not want to go back so soon. He wanted to stay there for a few more days. "Don’t you miss your parents?" Luca was not sure how to react to that. The elevator stopped at their floor, and they walked out. "I'll return to them soon enough. Also, Daddy always says that I'm a big boy now, and I need to learn how to be independent.” Tommy stood at the door, waiting for Luca to unlock it. Luca had no retort to those comments. She unlocked the door with her keys, after which Tommy cheered, ran inside, and took off his cap and mask. She stepped inside and closed the door. "It's so hot, Ms. Luca!” Tommy said coyly and pouted. "Alright, I'll turn on the air conditioning.” Luca knew that he was feeling stuffy. She put the shopping bags away, picked up the remote, and turned on the air conditioner. Tommy felt a lot more comfortable after the chilly air from the air conditioner cooled down the house. He grinned and said, "Ms. Luca, can you tutor me now?" Luca was happy that Tommy took the initiative to learn. "Of course. I'll have to put the ingredients in the fridge, otherwise they might spoil.” "Yes, Ms. Luca!" Tommy nodded, took out his textbooks from his backpack, and sat on the couch to wait for Luca. After Luca put the ingredients in the fridge and came out of the kitchen, Tommy was sitting on the couch and reading a story aloud. Luca smiled gently, went over, patted Tommy's head, and began to tutor him. Meanwhile, Luke's subordinates searched the entire area and found nothing. They had gone around the neighborhood with Tommy's photo and asked the residents if they had seen the boy, but no one gave them a positive answer. Jason could only tell the results of his findings to Luke. The atmosphere was tense in the spacious office. After Jason made his report, he stood still and waited for Luke to reprimand him. Luke took a drag from his cigarette and exhaled a smoke ring. He looked coldly at Jason and the bodyguards. "If you haven't found him, then continue to find him." Jason could feel his scalp tingle from those cold words. "Should we still look for him in that area, Boss?" "Did you see him in any other area?" Luke replied. Jason shook his head. "No. I'll go and make arrangements now!" Tommy had already been missing for two days and two nights, and there was no news of him. Luke hoped that he was deliberately hiding from them. It was hard to find a small child in a big city. Even if they did not hear any bad news about him now, they could not guarantee that he was safe. They had to find him as fast as possible. The people left the office. "Stop dawdling around. Let's go and look for Tommy," he urged. "Yes!" The bodyguards nodded and brought their subordinates to look for Tommy. In the evening, Luca went downstairs to take out the trash. She noticed that there were several bodyguards in black suits lingering around the area. When a bodyguard noticed Luca and wanted to approach her, she nimbly hid herself. After throwing the trash into the dumpster, she returned to the apartment. Tommy was watching cartoons on the couch. Luca sighed. For a brief moment, she thought that what she was doing was wrong. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ƒindηʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Even if she wanted to live together with her child, that was not the way to do it. To satisfy her selfish desire, she had to make Luke worry. "What's wrong, Ms. Luca?" Tommy heard Luca sigh and turned his head to look at her. "Tommy, your Daddy's subordinates are looking for you downstairs.” Luca walked over and sat on the couch. She wanted to convince the child to go home. Tommy pouted. "They're still searching for me?" Luca lowered the volume of the television. "It's probably his fault that he scolded you, but didn't he do that because he cares for you?" Tommy blinked. "Are you on Daddy's side now, Ms. Luca?" "I'm only telling you as it is.” Luca crossed her legs and turned his body to face him. "He sent so many people to search for you. That shows that he cares for you. He might not know how to express it, but I'm sure you know that he loves you. You've been missing for two days now, and he'll only be more and more worried. I'm guessing that he can't eat or sleep properly.” Tommy looked at the pile of snacks on the coffee table, then imagined his father losing his appetite over him. Suddenly, he felt guilty. He was enjoying himself in Ms. Luca's apartment, while his father was worrying at home. He realized that he was at fault. "What should I do, Ms. Luca?" Tommy lifted his head and looked at him. "It's not that I don't want you to stay with me, Tommy, but this isn't your home. You shouldn't let the people who love you worry about you. If you're willing, I'll bring you downstairs," Luca said. "Alright, Ms. Luca.” Tommy was reluctant to leave, but he could not bear to let his father worry about him anymore. "Let me help you pack up." Luca was relieved that she managed to convince him. She did not want to force the child to do something that he was not willing to do. That was why she had to obtain his consent before she sent him away. Luca packed up his clothes and books, then stuffed the snacks into his hands. "Let's go home." Search the FindNovel.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
