Chapter 1239 The Familiar Taste of Spaghetti
Luca's eyes opened wide. She did not expect Luke to sit down, much less eat a cupcake.
Rainie picked up a cupcake and peeled the liner away. "Try one, Daddy."
Luke took the cupcake. It looked petite and delicate in his hand.
He was not very fond of cake, but he had to try the cupcake that Luca baked.
The three children looked at him eagerly.
In one bite, Luke ate half of the cupcake. Luke carefully tasted the sweetness of the cake that melted in his mouth, though he
seemed to be pondering something.
He finished the rest of the cupcake in another bite.
Rainie smiled and asked him, "Daddy, isn't it very tasty?” "Not bad." When Luke said that, he turned around to glance at Luca.
Luca was standing there ever since Luke came into the house, as though she were the guest.
Rainie smiled at Luca. "Ms. Luca, Daddy likes your cupcakes!"
Tommy also added, "Daddy doesn't only like Ms. Luca's cupcakes. He loves her cooking too!"
Rainie nodded. It was not a surprise that their father loved Luca's cooking because it was so delicious. She picked up another
cupcake and said," Have another one, Daddy!"
Luke took it and ate it slowly.
Lanie had been silent all the while. He suddenly said, "Daddy, I guess you haven't had dinner?" "Mm," Luke replied casually. He
was busy with work at the company. After that, he had to go to the hospital to check on Bianca before coming to Luca's
apartment to pick up the children. He did not have the time to eat.
Rainie said tenderly, "You must be too busy with work, Daddy. Uncle Johann said that you shouldn't skip dinner because of your
gastric problems!"
Luca was slightly taken aback when she heard what Rainie said.

Since when did Luke have gastric problems? She guessed that it must be because of his irregular mealtimes.
Tommy placed his hands on his waist as though he was ready to reprimand his father too. "Rainie is right, Daddy. You shouldn't
skip dinner!"
Luke did not say anything when his children reprimanded him. Instead, he reached out to take another cupcake.
Earlier, he did not feel that he was hungry, but after eating two cupcakes, he realized that his stomach had been empty.
Tommy was slightly worried when he saw that his father was going to eat all the cupcakes. Immediately, he said, "You can't only
have cupcakes for dinner, Daddy. Why not ask Ms. Luca to make some spaghetti for you?"
Luca was surprised when Tommy mentioned her. "Spaghetti?"
Tommy nodded and took the plate of cupcakes away. "Ms. Luca, won't you take pity on our father? He hasn't had dinner yet, and
cupcakes alone won't fill him up. Won’t you make some spaghetti for him?"
Luke did not say anything when he heard his son pleading on his behalf. He remembered how Luca's cooking tasted like, and he
wanted to taste it again.
Luca waited for Luke to tactfully refuse, but the man said nothing.
Her fingers clenched the hem of her clothes. Seeing that the man did not refuse and that the children were all looking at her, she
realized that she had to make that plate of spaghetti no matter what.
Tommy was happy that he managed to save the rest of the cupcakes, and he would get a taste of the spaghetti too. He looked at
Luca eagerly and said, "Is it okay, Ms. Luca?"
Luca did not know how to say no. Luke had helped himself with the couch and the cupcakes as though he owned the place. She
could only smile and ask, "Is there anything in particular that you'd like to eat, Mr. Crawford?"
Tm fine with whatever," Luke said.
Luca sighed discreetly, knowing how hard he was to please. "I'll just make you spaghetti with tomato sauce then." "Okay." Luke
did not complain. He would eat whatever Luca cooked, even if it were literally only spaghetti and tomato sauce.
Luca nodded slightly. She knew that Luke would not leave if she did not produce a plate of spaghetti for him.

She walked into the kitchen and took out a pack of spaghetti she had bought earlier. She had bought that pack earlier, and she
did not expect that it would come into use so quickly.
While the water boiled, Luca thought that she should add something to the meal. She mixed some minced pork into the sauce
and blanched some vegetables. In total, she made two portions.
After the sauce was done, she seasoned it with some chopped herbs to make it taste even better.
She carefully brought the plate to the dining table and said, "Your spaghetti is ready, Mr. Crawford." "Mm." Luke stood up from
the couch and walked over while the three children followed behind him.
Luca was caught in a daze when she saw that scene. Three years ago, she had made supper for Luke, who had skipped dinner
because he worked overtime. The three children had also followed behind him just to get a taste of her cooking.
"That smells so good," Tommy exclaimed as he stared eagerly at the spaghetti on the dining table.
"I've made some for you too," Luca said. "Sit down at the table, and I'll get you your spaghetti."
One of the portions was for Luke, while the other was to be shared among the three children.
Tommy's eyes sparkled when he heard that Luca had made supper for him too. He sat down on the chair and said, "How did you
know that I'm hungry again? You're so nice to me, Ms. Luca."
Lanie and Rainie sat on their respective chairs too.
Luca split the other portion of spaghetti into three bowls and brought them out to the dining table. "You had dinner and dessert
earlier, so I didn't cook too much for you."
The three children took a whiff of the spaghetti that was served in front of them, and they said, "This smells so good."
Rainie noticed that Luca did not make spaghetti for herself. She asked," Aren't you eating, Ms. Luca?” "I don't usually eat supper.
You should eat," Luca said while removing her apron. She put it in the kitchen, then went to the coffee table to clean up the fruit
plate.
Tommy began to dig in.
Luke looked at his plate. Clearly, it was not only spaghetti with tomato sauce.

He had not eaten supper for a long time.
Sometimes, when he came home late from work, he would not ask the cook to make supper for him even though he had not
eaten dinner. If he was too hungry, he would fill his stomach with a cookie.
It had been three years since he had eaten spaghetti for supper. That was what Bianca used to make him before she was
abducted.
As he took in the fragrance of the spaghetti, he was lost in the memories of three years ago.
"Why aren't you eating, Daddy?" Tommy asked after taking a bite.
Luke came to his senses. He picked up the fork, twirled some spaghetti, and put it into his mouth.
"Does it taste good?" Tommy asked with a smile.
"It does." Luke ate the spaghetti slowly, thinking that it tasted very familiar.
