SWNOVELS Chapter 3157
Chapter 3157 It Was Better To Avoid Meeting
"Great!" When the three kids returned, Aunt Neile served them some fruits, so they were not hungry now.
Suddenly, Luca remembered the cartoons she had downloaded earlier and said, "I'll play the cartoons I downloaded. Didn't you miss some of it the day I came back? I downloaded the episode."
Then, Luca played it on the TV screen.
Tommy cheered, "Ms. Luca, you're awesome!"
"I originally planned to let you watch it on the weekend, but since you've finished your homework so early today, you can catch up now." Luca put her phone down and started to check their homework.
These days were peaceful. She spent her evenings with the kids while waiting for Luke to come back. She found these days quite fulfilling.
However, she also knew that this tranquility could be shattered at any moment by Abel. That was why she cherished these moments even more.
Luca's smile faded slightly at the thought of Abel.
Who knew how long this peace would last...
"Ms. Luca, what's wrong?" Rainie was sitting beside Luca, and she sensed her change in mood.
"It's nothing." Luca shook her head. "Just checking your homework!"
Rainie furrowed her delicate brows and glanced at what Luca was doing. Luca was checking Tommy's homework. She asked, "Is Tommy's homework very bad?"
Tommy heard his name being mentioned and immediately looked nervously at Luca. He said, "No, mine isn't bad at all. I did it very seriously!"
"No, it's quite good." Luca shook her head, signing her name behind Tommy's workbook.
"Okay." Rainie felt that something was off with Luca's mood, so she leaned closer and whispered, "Ms. Luca, don't be upset. We're here for you!"
"I'm not upset." Luca looked at her daughter. Moved by Rainie being so
thoughtful and considerate, her smile returned. "Don't worry, I'm fine. Everything's okay."
"Okay." Rainie nodded, then her gaze fell back to the TV.
Lanie suddenly rose to his feet.
"Lanie, where are you going?" asked Rainie.
"To get a book," replied Lanie as he made his way up the stairs.
"Oh." Rainie did not say anything more. She knew her brother was not actually interested in these cartoons. He was just watching them with them.
He was usually uninterested in them, and now rewatching them would be even less interesting to him.
After a while, Lanie came back with a book and also brought a small booklet.
He handed the small booklet to Luca.
"What's this?" Luca looked up and saw the red booklet being handed to her. There were two big words printed on it-Honor Certificate.
"It's Lanie's certificate. Lanie won the championship in the school's math competition," Rainie said.
"I'll win the national math competition next," said Lanie. He felt this award was too small. He did not intend to show it to Luca.
He had not even thought of taking it out.
The moment he received the honor certificate, he stashed it away in a drawer without ever considering taking it out.
However, when he heard Rainie say Luca did not seem very happy a moment ago, as though she had something on her mind, he suddenly recalled that parents always liked seeing their children succeed.
If Luca knew he had won an award, she would definitely be happy!
Hence, Lanie this as an excuse to show Luca the certificate.
She would be happy to see it.
For parents, regardless of the size of the award, it was all about honor. It was something that filled them with pride.
"Really? Lanie, that's amazing!" Luca put down the workbook, took his certificate, opened it, glanced at the ranking, and smiled broadly.
Her son was truly amazing.
"This is just a small award. I'll bring back a big one next month," said Lanie. He never pursued these things. He only participated because the teacher asked him
to.
Therefore, he did not have much pursuit of rankings.
People called him a genius, and he displayed the qualities of one. As long as he participated in competitions he was good at, he always came first.
Math was his forte.
As Luca looked at Lanie's calm little face, she smiled and replied, "Okay, then I'll wait. Shall we display the certificate in the living room?"
"Okay." Although Lanie did not think it was a good idea, he went along with Luca.
Tommy chimed in, "Ms. Luca, I have a competition next week, and I'm going to
get first place too!"
"Great. Tommy, you need to work hard too!" Luca looked at her talented children. She felt a surge of warmth in her heart.
No other children could be as outstanding as hers.
However, she also felt it was not her achievement. It was Luke's.
Luke had excellent genes and educated the children well, which was why they
were so exceptional.
As Luca thought of her husband and then of her children, Luca felt a sense of
superiority.
Lanie sat back on the couch, and Rainie could not help but mutter softly," Lanie, didn't you say you wouldn't show it?"
"I wanted Ms. Luca to be happy," Lanie explained coolly.
As Luca listened to their conversation, the worry that had just arisen in her mind
was immediately dismissed.
They were all her treasures...
After Luca finished checking the children's homework, Luke came back.
After dinner, Luke went upstairs to deal with work.
Luca spent some time watching cartoons with the kids before going upstairs too.
She planned to tidy up the herbs Gale had sent over.
She came to the second floor. Instead of going straight into the study, she went
to Luke's bedroom where he was working.
The door was left ajar. She stood by the door and knocked.
"Come in," said Luke.
"Luke, I have something I want to ask you," said Luca.
"About Louis?" Luke guessed what Luca wanted to ask right away.
She nodded. "Has Louis patched things up with his mother?" Luca asked
straightforwardly.
"No." Luke shook his head.

"Then why did you still invite him
over? Aren't you afraid that Madam Crawford will find but later and come over to cause trouble? Perhaps another family conflict will erupt."

Luca was worried. Whether it was Karen causing trouble in their house or hers, it
was no good.
After all, the relationship between Louis and his mother was on the edge now. If they met again, would there not be another family conflict?
Luke answered, 'The relationship between them has reached a breaking point. It's time to break the ice. Staying stuck like this won't help.
"Mother still can't reach Louis, and she's constantly running to Crawford Manor,
disturbing Grandpa's peace every single day."
Luca was taken aback for a moment and replied slowly, "I see..."

"Yeah, some things need addressing.
This isn't working out for Louis either, so I might as well give them a chance
to sort things out. If they want to make a scene, let them. The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest chapter there!

"It's either they patch things up or
continue being at odds, but it's better than Mother constantly running to n. the old house," Luke explained to her. The content is on Novelxo.org!

Men and women often thought differently.
Luca thought that if Louis did not patch things up with Susan, it meant Louis still
had grievances and it was better to avoid meeting.
Still, Luke did not see it that way.
