There was no expression on Luke’s face as he listened to Tia trying to provoke him.
He knew exactly what she was up to. He would never talk to such a woman in the past.
Luke took a sip of coffee and changed the topic of the conversation. “Let me continue explaining my mother’s condition.”
Tia had already expected he would not say anything. After all, a man like him would never say it out even if he was dissatisfied. She was looking forward to how he was going to deal with Nina.
She deliberately gave him a gentle smile and said, “Sure. Tell me more about your mother’s situation, including events of the past. I can only treat her better if I understand more about her.”
Luke looked up. He was calm as usual despite the tenderness that she showed to him.
He continued to talk about Allison.
…
Luca and Nina left the coffee shop after paying their bill.
Nina was holding Luca’s hand, and she asked worriedly, “Luca, how are you feeling? Are you injured?”
“I hurt my waist during the trip.” Since Nina already learned about it from Luke, Luca did not intend to hide it anymore.
"Oh my, why are you so careless? How did you hurt it? Why aren’t you getting some rest? You're still running around after getting hurt. How dare you!" Nina blocked her. Although Luca did not look like she was feeling uncomfortable, anyone could pretend and act.
Just like her. Although she was feeling extremely upset, she had to pretend nothing had happened to her in front of others.
Luca smiled and said after she listened to Nina babbling with concern, “I’m alright. It’s just a minor injury. The doctor gave me ointment and medicine. I’ll be fine.”
“It takes a long time for our bones and muscles to heal. No way, let me send you home.” Nina could not be bothered about anything else anymore, even giving up the thought of asking Luca to go for a facial treatment. She held Luca’s hand and they walked toward the parking lot.
Luca did not resist, and she followed Nina submissively while being dragged along by her.
Nina said, “Oh, you mentioned that you came back from the trip early. Did you come back together with Luke?”
“Yes, it’s something related to Mr. Crawford,” said Luca. She considered that Allison’s condition would be exposed to the public after she got out of jail, so she would not try to hide it.
Moreover, Nina was not a gossipy person. Even if she was curious, she would only be curious about the people she was familiar with.
“His matter? Why did he drag you along, then? Did he not know that you’re hurt?” Nina muttered as she recalled him being on a date with Tia in that private room. She was defending Bianca in her heart. “You’re helping him to do things while he’s busy dating.”
Luca felt uncomfortable when she saw Luke and Tia were together in a private room. However, looking at it from a different perspective, they were probably not on a date at all.
Luke went looking for Tia most likely because of Allison.
The lawyer had told him about Allison’s mental condition. Indeed, she needed a psychologist. Sometimes, treating psychological trauma was much more difficult than treating physical wounds.
“Mr. Crawford is probably busy.” Luca defended him.
Both of them entered the parking lot. Nina found her car, opened the car door, and got in. "Forget it. He has nothing to be busy with. Oh, what did he ask you for help with?"
Luca told her about Allison’s matter.
