Chapter 3325 What Are You Two Doing?
Luca glanced at Luke, silently asking for his input.
He gave a slight nod, signaling his approval.
Luca replied, "Alright, we'll be there. What time is it in the evening? Where's the venue?"
"I'll send you the exact time and location later. Don't worry, Dr. Craw. It won't run too late," Gale reassured her, knowing they had kids to take care of. Since Luca was out, Aunt Neile would probably have to stay late at home to help.
"Great, we'll definitely be there." Luca smiled as she hung up the phone.
"What's he planning?" asked Luke. From what he overheard, it almost sounded like Gale was about to confess his feelings to Luca.
However, Gale was not that type of person, so Luke was curious about who had caught Gale's interest.
"You don't know?" Luca was surprised. Luke always seemed to know everything, like when Percy started liking Nina, but he missed Gale's feelings for Rain?
Luke shook his head, indicating he had no idea.
He had spoken to Gale earlier today, but he seemed busy, so Luke left things to Rain to handle.
"What's Gale planning?" Luke asked again, feeling a bit out of the loop since even Luca knew.
Suddenly, he had the strange feeling that everyone else was in on something he was not.
Luca smiled. "He's in love with Rain."
"I see." Luke nodded. He had noticed that Gale acted suspiciously every time Rain's name came up.
"You knew?" Luca was shocked.
"He's had feelings for her for a while," replied Luke.
He was not stupid. How could he not have noticed?
However, Luke was not the type to meddle in others' relationships, so he stayed out of it, waiting for Gale to figure things out on his own. As for whether they would end up together, Luke did not have a strong opinion.
If it was meant to be, it would happen.
Just like it had with him and Bianca.
After multiple breakups and reconciliations, they still ended up together. There were still a few obstacles, but Luke was confident they would overcome them. He and Bianca would be happy.
Nothing could stand in the way of their happiness.
"You noticed but didn't say anything?" Luca was surprised. Then, she smiled and added, "If you had pointed it out earlier, Gale wouldn't have needed to drink his sorrows away."
Luke slipped his hands into his pockets. He was completely relaxed, his demeanor all laid back. He gazed gently at Luca in front of him and said, "I don't get involved in other people's relationship drama. I'm just focused on keeping my own love life in check."
Luc's face turned red. Yes, their love life.
It was something he had to protect.
Feeling a little flustered, she added, "Rain has already confessed her feelings for him too. But Gale, being his straightforward self, blurted out his confession without doing anything special, so Rain turned him down. That's
why he hired a company to plan a proper confession."
"He's such a fool," Luke said with contempt.
Gale handled everything else with precision, but when it came to romance, he was not only late to the game, but he was totally clueless. Luke found himself feeling a bit frustrated just thinking about it.
Luca nodded. "Well, the fact that he thought to hire a company to help plan his confession is already a step in the right direction. We'll go tomorrow and show him some support."
She could already imagine how nervous Gale would be during his confession.
He was someone who remained calm and collected in dangerous situations, yet was completely clueless when it came to matters of the heart. That was why she figured that Gale would be pretty nervous during his confession.
That kind of contrast could be amusing.
"I won't be there to support him." Luke shook his head.
Luca looked surprised, then heard Luke continue, "I'll be there to support Rain."
She burst out laughing. "Your two closest friends are about to start dating. If they can't keep work and romance separate, what would you think about that, Mr. Crawford?"
"It's like the student I've been nurturing for years is getting snatched by Gale, that damn pig," said Luke without holding back.
He was not worried Luca would take it the wrong way, though. She knew exactly what Rain and Gale meant to him.
They were friends who had survived life-or-death situations together, and they had helped Luke a lot. Of course, she would not get jealous over that.
"I can't wait to see Gale's reaction when he hears your analogy." Luca was amused. Luke really sounded like a protective father.
The only difference was that he saw Rain as a partner, not a daughter.
Luke scoffed. "Rain has always been kind to him, but he's been so oblivious this whole time. Isn't he just a fool? I wouldn't be surprised if Rain ends up speechless from his clueless behavior once they're together."
"You've got it all figured out, yet you still didn't say anything. You're something else," Luca replied helplessly. She thought that it was unfortunate for Gale to have someone like Luke as his boss.
If he had clued Gale in earlier, maybe he and Rain would have gotten together a long time ago. Instead of beating about the bush under the guise of friendship, they could have been happy already.
It was kind of frustrating.
Luca admired Rain for being so patient, having feelings for Gale all this time without saying a word.
As Luke held Luca's hand and led her upstairs, he said, "Some things can't be said out loud. People have to figure it out for themselves. Saying too much would ruin things. Now, Gale knows he likes Rain and is ready to confess. Isn't that great?"
"You're right. Gale has always been reliable when it comes to work, but when it comes to relationships, he's pretty careless. Even if he had realized his feelings for Rain earlier, he probably wouldn't have confessed.
"Maybe, after all these years of circling around each other, now is the perfect time for them to get together. After dating for a while, they can just go ahead and get married," Luca agreed, glancing at the man beside her. After all the twists and turns in their own lives, she still ended up back at his side.
"What gift are you going to give if Gale and Rain do get married?" asked Luca.
"I'll definitely give them something big," answered Luke.
They shared a bond forged in life-and-death situations. Luke would give them something big and wish them a lifetime of happiness together.
"I'm really looking forward to tomorrow," exclaimed Luca.
"Why wait for tomorrow? How about looking forward to tonight?" After they reached the second floor, Luke immediately leaned in and gently rested his forehead against hers. They looked into each other's eyes.
Luca's breath quickened.
"Luca, tonight, you're mine," muttered Luke. "You had me all worked up this afternoon. If the kids hadn't come in, I wouldn't have had to hold back all day. You're definitely going to make it up to me tonight, right?"
Luca's face flushed bright red. Her shyness made her bloom like a delicate flower.
Luke's eyes darkened with intensity, filled with a burning desire. He longed to pull her into his arms and make love to her passionately. His precious, his one and only...
The door opened with a creak, and Tommy stepped out of his room. When he saw his parents standing so close together, he paused for a moment, then asked, "Daddy, Ms. Luca, what are you two doing?"
