Chapter 3333 You're Making Your Mother Sleep In The Guest Room Allison glared at Luke but dared not to talk back.
She followed him into the bedroom and took one look around. She was instantly dissatisfied when she saw the size of the room. "Why is this room so small?" "This is the only bedroom left," replied Luke.
"So, this is the guest room?" Allison shrieked. "I'm your mother, and you're actually makingsleep in the guest room?" "All the furniture here was bought brand new, specifically from the brand you like. No one else has slept here. If you're not satisfied, you're welcto stay at a hotel." Luke was not usually a talkative person, but when it cto Allison, he found himself having to say more.
Even a couple of words felt insufficient to quell her sharp tongue.
Allison inspected the newly arranged furniture. It seemed it had been set up just for her. She even noticed the plastic wrapping on sof the pieces.
Allison did like this brand. She thought it was Luke's arrangement. Figuring Luke must have spent quite a bit on the furniture, she did not complain further. She sat on the couch and, in a commanding tone, told him, "Bring up my other two suitcases. I need to start my skincare." Luke's eyebrow twitched slightly.
Skincare? Did her skin even need that at this point? He could not be bothered to argue. As long as she was staying put without causing trouble, it was fine by him.
Heading downstairs, he spotted Luca rummaging through the drawers by the TV stand.
"What are you looking for?" Luke walked over, crouching down, planning to help her.

"I remember seeing it in this drawer just a few days ago." As Luke opened the drawer, he found the tub and held it up. "Is this the one?" "Yes, that's it. I even specially ordered it from the pharmacy," confirmed Luca. This brand was widely used on the Island of Despair for treating injuries and was highly effective.
"You go ahead and help Aunt Neile with her back. I'll bring up the suitcases," said Luke, helping her stand as he held her hand.
Luca asked with concern, "Does she know she's staying in the guest room?" "She knows," replied Luke. "She didn't like the arrangement at first, but when she saw the new furniture from her favorite brand, she dropped it." Relieved that Allison was not making a fuss, Luca nodded.
"So, you're bringing up both suitcases? They're pretty heavy. Be careful and take care of yourself," Luca reminded him.
Even though Luke was strong, she could not help but worry. She felt a pang of concern seeing him carry such heavy items.
"Alright, go take care of Aunt Neile," replied Luke, lugging one suitcase to the staircase before hefting it onto his shoulder to carry it up.
Watching him, Luca thought to herself it was probably tto get that elevator installed. She had thought about it before but had not taken any action.
Making a mental note of this, Luca carried the medicinal cream into the maid's room.
"Ms. Craw." Aunt Neile clutched her back as she saw Luca enter and stood up to greet her. "Aunt Neile, lie down," said Luca. "Letdo a quick check first. If it's not too serious, I'll just massage the area with smedicinal cream. But if you've pulled something, we may need a dry needling treatment." "Alright, Dr. Craw. Thank you." Aunt Neile had no objections to the treatment methods.
It was because she trusted Luca.
"Oh? Do you really trustthat much?" Luca sat down on the edge of the bed, gently lifting Aunt Neile's shirt.
"With skills as good as yours, of course, I trust you!" replied Aunt Neile.
Luca felt a sense of warmth. Allison's harsh words had not fazed her at all.
Sensing her thoughts, Aunt Neile added, "Ms. Craw, I've worked for the Crawfords for decades. I know the madam's personality well, so don't let her words bother you. She just likes to talk, but it's all hot air. She doesn't really cause harm." "I know," replied Luca, beginning her examination. "Does this hurt?" "No, it doesn't," answered Aunt Neile. "So, don't worry. If she says something unpleasant, just ignore her. Just think of it as nothing more than hot air passing by." Luca chuckled at her words. Aunt Neile rarely shared such thoughts. "I won't let her get to me. Her words won't affect me. How about here? Do you feel any pain?" "No pain there either," answered Aunt Neile, relaxing under her touch. Since she knew Luca was not bothered, she said no more.
After all, as a maid, it was not her place to comment too much on family affairs. She just did not want Luca to dwell on it.
After all, Allison had a sharp tongue. She could be unreasonable and infuriating.
However, as long as Luca did not take it to heart, there would be no harm done.
After pressing around to locate the tender spot, Luca finally concluded, "Thankfully, it's nothing serious. Keep applying the cream for a few days and it should help. Just remember to use warm water for showers. No cold water." "Thank you, Dr. Craw," said Aunt Neile. She appreciated Luca's thoughtfulness despite knowing that Luke already had a wife.
However, if there were truly no feelings left between them, it would not be such a bad match for him to be with Luca for the long haul.
Luca, unaware of Aunt Neile's musings, scooped smedicinal cream and carefully applied it to her back. The cream soon turned warm against Aunt Neile's skin.

Even though Luca knew that the injury was not severe, it would still cause spain.
Without a good massage, Aunt Neile would likely be up all night in discomfort.
"Dr. Craw, you're an amazing masseuse," murmured Aunt Neile, feeling like she was receiving a top-notch wellness treatment.
Although this was a medical treatment, she felt really good.
She was not lying.
"This is a traditional massage technique, but I only know the basics," Luca explained humbly. "Real experts have much more skill in massage." It was a technique she picked up from Shanks.
Back when she had free time, she used to give massages to Eler, and over time, her technique becmore and more refined.
"Oh, what's going on here?" Allison walked in with a face mask plastered across her face and sneered sarcastically at the scene.
Aunt Neile heard her voice and tried to push herself up from the bed.
Luca gently held her down. "Aunt Neile, the massage isn't finished yet, and d the treatment isn't complete. You shouldn't interrupt it."
"Oh, okay." Aunt Neile had no choice but to stay put, silently hoping Allison would not order her around or criticize her for being "rude".
Allison let out a cold sneer. "Just because you know now medicinal youth you think you're The little about m content is on novelenglish.net! a real doctor now? You're a massage expert, huh? Why don't you giveone? I'm sore from that long flight." She lightly pressed the face mask against her skin, trying to get it to stick better to her deeply lined face.
