Luca sighed and looked at the hot air she breathed out. She could not help looking at the streetlights on the side of the road.
It turned out that, unknowingly, the weather was already so cold. The breath exhaled was misty.
Taxi could not stop where she was, so Luca could only continue walking.
Her phone rang, and Luca, who was immersed in recollecting her past memories, was startled as she took her phone out of her pocket.
It was a string of unfamiliar numbers.
Luca frowned. She was unfamiliar with the number, but when she saw the numbers eight and nine, she knew that whoever was calling was rich.
She answered, "Hello."
"Is this Luca Craw?" There was a proud female voice on the other end of the line.
Luca could not see her expression, but she could imagine the disdainful look of the other party. "Who’s calling?"
The woman on the other end of the phone did not expect her to ask such a question. She was stunned, then she said, "You’re Luca Craw, right? I have something to talk to you about. Come to the cafe on the top floor of International Center."
"If you don't say who you are, I won't be there, Ma'am. I'm sorry." Luca finished speaking and hung up.
The voice on the other end of the phone sounded slightly different because of the transmission methods, but Luca could still tell that it was Percy's mother who called.
The reason she called her probably had something to do with Pierre.
Johann had informed her about Pierre's condition, so she knew how many times he had taken painkillers, what painkillers he took, and how long the effects lasted each time.
A minute after she hung up, Luca's phone rang again.
Seeing that the number was still the same, she curled her lips slightly and answered the call.
The other party did not wait for her to speak this time. She directly stated her identity, "I'm Pierre's mother."
Luca knew that she would not have gotten it wrong. When she heard her say that, it confirmed her suspicions.
"Mrs. Mallory, what can I do for you?" Her tone was neither humble nor servile. She was even a little arrogant, which made Madam Mallory furious.
"There’s something you can do for me. I want to meet you," Madam Mallory said. Percy was madly in love with Nina, while Pierre was lying on the hospital bed, unable to move.
If she wanted Pierre to get better, she had to find this woman.
"It's not convenient for me to go there because I don't have a car. How about you come here?" Luca did not plan to go to International Center seeing that she was asking to see her. Hence, Madam Mallory should be the one traveling.
"You..." Madam Mallory was surprised. This was the first time she was being ordered around.
With her status in A City, as long as her assistant made a call, there would be many who would be willing to go to where she was to please her.
However, Luca did not know chalk from cheese.
Sure enough, those who hung out with Nina were just as annoying.
Luca did not wait for her to vent her anger. She looked around, chose a cafe, gave Karen the address, and hung up.
Not wanting to be harassed by Percy's mother, she simply blocked the number, walked into the cafe, found a window seat, ordered a glass of juice, and sat down.
She knew that Madam Mallory would definitely show up.
Madam Mallory would not do it for anyone else but she would most definitely do it for Pierre.
After what had happened, Luca could see clearly that Madam Mallory favored Pierre.
