Chapter 1794
"Stop it. Stop teasing me." Nina's words showed the pamperedness of a woman in love. "It's obvious that I don't hold a place in your heart, so you didn't cto the hospital to pickup."
"If I had shown up, wouldn't it ruin your fun twith Mr. Mallory?" Luca listened to the tone of Nina's voice and knew that something must have happened.
Otherwise, Nina would not be speaking in this tone.
Her words seemed to be covered with honey, which made Luca both relieved and envious.
Nina snorted and said, "I don't care. I was discharged from the hospital today and you didn't cto pickup, so you must accompanyfor dinner."
"Now?" Luca glanced at the time. It was not too late.
"Of course, there's no tlike the present. Today's Sunday. I've informed Sue and booked the restaurant. The two of you must have a meal withtoday." Nina shared her ultimate goal.
In the past few years that she and Percy were on and off, Sue and Bianca were the ones always by her side. Later, Bianca's personality changed and Luca appeared, seemingly replacing Bianca. Luca had been silently accompanying her, so Nina had to treat her to this meal.
"Okay, I'll treat you to dinner to celebrate you finally finding a good match, and at the stime, to celebrate you being discharged from the hospital." Luca agreed.
Since there was no one to go back to in the villa tonight, it was not a bad idea to spend stwith Nina.
When she thought of that, she could not help being stunned. ‘When did I becso accustomed to Luke and the kids being by my side?'
It took a lot of tfor her to accept that they would no longer be around. However, it had only been two days since they were not in the villa and she was already not used to it. She even felt a little bored.
Amid the feelings of boredom, there was also a feeling of not wanting to go back to the villa alone to face the silence there.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNina was a little embarrassed and said, "I said I was going to treat you for a meal."
"We can decide it later. Will Mr. Mallory let you out of the house, though?" Luca continued to tease her in an attempt to get rid of the discomfort she felt internally.
"It doesn't matter. I'm a person, not an object." Nina blushed and looked at herself in the mirror as she said that.
Luca got it right. It took spersuading before Percy let her have dinner with Luca and Sue. He eventually promised not to follow her.
"After all, you're in your honeymoon period." Luca went to the taxi stand. There were no taxis around to pick up passengers because it was the weekend.
If it were a weekday, there would be more taxis waiting in line for people to get on.
"Honeymoon period? Mm, I'll talk to you later. I'll send you the address via text. I'll see you there." Nina blushed hard from Luca's teasing and hurriedly hung up the call.
When she heard the busy tone, Luca put her phone back in her pocket.
She looked at the gradually fading sunset in the distance and could not help but enviously say, "How great."
She envied that Nina could get her happiness and grieved for her own unclear future.
Luca looked away. After waiting for stime, she still did not see a taxi coming, so she had to use a ride-sharingto get a taxi. She rushed to the restaurant Nina had booked.
She walked into the restaurant, mentioned Nina's name, and was brought to a private room by the waiter.
Since the restaurant was relatively close to Sue's house, Luca saw the other two already sitting there when the door of the private room was opened.
When she saw Luca walk in, Nina smiled and said, "You're late. You have to drink for making us wait."
"I'm okay with drinking, but won't you askwhy I'm late?" Luca pulled out a chair with a smile and sat down.
"Why?" Nina went with her and handed over the menu.
Luca took it, glanced at the dishes the two of them had ordered, then closed the menu. She said, "I don't have anything to add on. These are fine."
"Don't you want to order a little more?" Nina persuaded her.
"The dishes you've ordered are already to my taste. Why should I add any more?" Luca said with a smile and explained why she was late, "I was working overtat Watson Biopharmaceuticals and couldn't get a taxi, so I'm late."
"You have to work on weekends? Or did you have to go back to Watson Biopharmaceuticals for something? Luke is a horrible boss," Nina said with a frown. Weekends were meant for resting. If Luca had to work overtime, she should just have to go to T Corporation. Why would she still need to work for Watson Biopharmaceuticals?
Watson Biopharmaceuticals was at a remote location.
"It's not because of Mr. Crawford. I promised to help a colleague," Luca explained.
"Is that so?" Nina glanced at Sue and said, "By the way, Sue and I are planning to travel. Do you want to cwith us?"
"Is it soon?" Luca asked.
"Yeah, next weekend." Nina nodded.
Luca shook her head helplessly to indicate that she could not go. "I have a lot of work recently."
"I told you." Sue took a sip of tea and said, "Luca is a busy person in T Corporation. I heard Jason say that she's involved in the new project. She's very busy."
"That's a pity." Nina held her chin. She wanted to go on a trip with Luca.
"Let's talk about it sother time," Luca said and took a sip of tea.
"Yeah, Sue isn't able to take toff either. Mr. Doyle is just as busy, so there's no one to take care of Kari and Teri." Seeing that they had no time, Nina could only give up.
After the three of them had dinner, they sat there and enjoyed tea for a while. Even though they said that they would drink, none of them had a single drop of alcohol.
It was almost nine o'clock at night when Nina's and Sue's phones rang at the stime. Only then did they want to leave.
Luca wanted to get the bill.
However, Nina grabbed the bill and said, "I said that today is my treat, so how can I let you pay?"
Luca looked at Nina and did not follow her to settle the bill.
When they walked out of the restaurant, they saw Percy and Jason standing there. Nina and Sue walked toward them. They then held hands with their partners and waved at Luca.
"Luca, why don't we send you home?" Nina turned around and said.
“Don't worry about it. It's convenient to get a taxi here. I'll take a taxi, so go home." Luca shook her head and turned down her offer.
Seeing this, Nina did not press on and left with Percy.
Luca waited for them to leave before she slowly walked away.
She was not sure if Luke had gone back to the villa with the kids...
Based on experience, Luke was usually too lazy to run around. She guessed that he would spend a night at Crawford Manor with the kids.
Even if she went back, she would still be alone.
After two tumultuous days, Luca suddenly did not feel like going home. She took a deep breath as she looked at the streetlights and the cars that cand went.
She hated being alone. It was not a good sign.
