Chapter 453 - Home Sweet Home



She patted his back. “This boy, you’re a lot bigger than before.”

Luke nodded with a smile. “That’s right, I’m still growing.”

Sandra was lost for words.

Giving her a meaningful glance, they went into the house, and after whispering together for a while, Sandra hit him a few times with a smile. “You clever thing.”

She couldn’t help but heave a sigh. “This seems more suitable for a proposal.”

Luke broke out sweating when he heard this and laughed hollowly. “Well, let’s take the stuff out first. Selina prepared a lot of gifts for all of you but never had the time to send them over.”

A few minutes later, Luke got back into the car.

Sandra urged again, “You really aren’t staying? At least have dinner here before you go back.”

Luke shook his head. “Haha, that would make Catherine mad. I’m leaving; I’ll see you tomorrow night, Sandra.”

After that, he said goodbye to the siblings who came over and then left in the car.

Parking the car in front of his house, he sighed nostalgically. “Home sweet home.”

He got out with a suitcase which held gifts for his family.

Opening the door with the key that he hadn’t used for quite some time, he went in and happened to meet the gaze of the person who was bent over to change her shoes.

With a smile, he reached out to rub her head. “Haha, are you surprised?”

Stunned for a moment, she suddenly yelled, “Luke, why are you back? Ahhhhhhhh!” Saying that, she threw herself at him.

Hugging her with a smile, Luke nudged the door shut with his foot and carried this teddy bear as he walked. “Can’t I come back? It’s not like I’m going to stop you from going out to play.”

“Tsk, I’ll just call them and tell them I’m not going. It’s just a boring pre-graduation party anyway.” She did her best to climb onto his back from within his arms as she spoke.

“Claire, your bestie will be devastated when she hears that.” Luke smiled and supported her with one hand in case she fell.

This big teddy bear was naturally his sister, Claire.

Too lazy to reply to Luke’s boring comment, Claire simply asked excitedly, “Why did you come back? Are you coming to the dance with me? Wow, look at your muscles. How did you work out to get these?”

Helpless, Luke could only let her touch his back.

Claire was a fan of muscles, and moreover, had a very high requirement.

To use a description from Luke’s previous life, her ultimate type was — King Kong barbie.

She liked a gentler type of good looks with distinct muscles that didn’t bulge exaggeratedly.

This was naturally a very harsh requirement. Unfortunately, Luke was very close to this description.

There were footsteps from the kitchen, and Catherine was surprised and delighted as she stood at the kitchen doorway. “Luke, you’re back?”

Luke smiled and gave her a big hug. “Haha, surprise! I missed you.”

Catherine embraced him tightly and didn’t let go until quite some time later. “It seems your life’s pretty good. You didn’t gain weight, at least.”

Luke struck a fit pose and said, “I work out a lot. Hey, Claire, how much longer are you going to be on my back?”

Claire pretended she didn’t hear him.

She didn’t have many chances to cling to Luke’s back with good reason.

Someone ran down the stairs. “Luke, Luke, you’re back?”

With a smile, Luke turned around and picked up the little guy with one hand. “Joseph, what’s primary school like? Molly and Scarlett still giving you snacks?”

Joseph laughed hard as Luke tickled him. “Haha, stop tickling me. Haha, I switched girlfriends. It’s Jessica and Daisy who give me snacks now.”

Luke: “...”

Claire: “...”

Catherine: “...”

After coming down hard on Joseph, who seemed to have it all at so young an age, Catherine returned to the kitchen to continue making dinner.

Luke gave his brother and sister their presents in the living room.

“This perfume is for Catherine, and so is this skin lotion and the earrings...” As he took out the gifts, Luke said, “Claire, you take them to her room later.”

Claire was bummed. “There’s nothing for me?”

She wasn’t angry that Catherine got so many gifts.

Catherine had always loved Luke most. Claire had been jealous of him when she was little.

It was a good thing that Luke had grown up before Joseph could understand things, or Joseph would’ve been jealous too.

Waving his hand at her with a smile, Luke had her sit next to him before he took out a few boxes from his suitcase and opened them one by one.

Claire was going to scream after the boxes were open, but Luke had seen it coming and covered her mouth. “You can wear them every once in a while, but don’t wear them all at once, or Catherine might scold you.”

Claire nodded quickly and closed the boxes before rushing back to her room with them.

“Come back after you find a safe place for them. Catherine’s gifts are still here,” Luke shouted, unsurprised at her reaction.

His gifts for Claire couldn’t be considered expensive. They were the latest watches produced by Swatch, which cost one to two hundred dollars each. Even combined, they weren’t as expensive as the skincare set which he had bought for Catherine.

Those watches were colorful and novel, and more fashionable than they were practical.

Compared with the famous watches that were worth thousands of dollars, these were the most suitable watches for girls since they weren’t too cheap and were very pretty. They could be easily switched out for newer models after they went out of fashion in a year or two.

Luke had brought back several versions for Claire, which suited this fickle girl just fine; she could choose whatever color or pattern she wanted to wear, depending on her mood.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t afford expensive watches, but that it was unnecessary.

Claire didn’t have a proper view of money yet, and nor did her friends.

She might be a source of admiration if she went out with a watch worth thousands of dollars, but the other girls would curse her behind her back.

Joseph disdainfully watched his dumb sister Claire leave before he gazed at Luke silently.

Luke chuckled and took out a book wrapped in kraft paper. “This is a study guide which I specially got from a famous primary school in Los Angeles. It’s yours now.” It was as if Joseph was struck by lightning. “What?!”

Looking at his aghast expression, Luke finally burst out laughing. “I’m kidding. This is the new storybook that’s been popular recently, Magic Academy. Haven’t you always liked... that beautiful little sorceress?”

“Ida Vincent,” Joseph said firmly as he grabbed the book.

Looking at Joseph, who was examining the new book fondly after tearing off the kraft paper, Luke said with a smile, “Hey, reading isn’t everything. There’s also this...”

He took out a football and said, “It’s the football officially used by the Los Angeles Rams, but it isn’t autographed.”
