“Do you know why he chose X City?” Amur shot her a glance and continued to clean the vegetables.
When he first learned that Abel had chosen X City as the final destination, he was surprised.
After all, their base was usually in A City.
Luca picked up a slice of beef and placed it in the mixer. After she pressed the blending mode, she answered Amur’s question, “Well, if it’s just the Mallory family that bothers Abel, he wouldn’t have much reason to choose X City. But what if it’s a joint investigation by the Crawford family, the Mallory family, and the Holston family into Pierre’s kidnapping? If Pierre is still in A City, he can be easily found.”
"Three families? How do you know that the Crawford family and Holston family are helping the Mallory family?" Amur frowned. He knew that Percy, Luke, and Jim were close friends.
However, Percy and the Mallory family had fallen out, so how could the Crawford family and the Holston family help the Mallory family?
Nowadays, the younger generation of these three families ruled the roost in the family. The older generation basically did not care about these things.
“Percy can’t ignore the Mallory family. Even if he wants to, Nina will convince him not to do so. So, once Percy gets involved in this, the Crawford family and the Holston family will help too,” assured Luca.
If Nina knew about this and Percy did not do anything about it, she would definitely talk to him.
She would persuade him to investigate Pierre’s kidnapping.
It was not that Nina had forgiven Pierre for what he had done in the past, but she did not want to see Percy drift apart from his family.
"Are you sure about that?" Amur looked at Luca in surprise as she took out the minced beef and started seasoning it.
“Perhaps they’re already drinking together tonight,” replied Luca. She picked up the seasoning and seasoned the beef.
When she told Luke that she would be having dinner with Amur tonight, Luke said that he would be drinking with Percy tonight.
This was a signal that Luke would be helping Percy.
The three of them were like brothers. They usually had a drinking session whenever one of them needed the help of the other two.
After the drinking session ended, they would reach a collaboration.
Amur nodded, but he felt bitter inside.
Luca had been away from Luke for three years, but she still knew him so well.
It made him inexplicably jealous knowing that Luca knew him inside out.
Did Luca know him that well too? Amur secretly asked himself.
Suddenly, there was an answer in his heart. Luca knew him well, but it was far from the way she knew Luke.
Luca would never have feelings for him that were similar to love.
“Amur.” Luca blended the meat again and began to prepare tonight’s dishes.
“Yes?” Amur placed the vegetables in the basket.
"I'll tell you some good news if you help me make some pot pies and croissants tonight," said Luca.
"I'm all thumbs when it comes to this..." Amur hesitated. He could help with washing dishes and vegetables, but he was not good at fiddly jobs like these.
It was not that he had never tried before. He learned to make pot pies and croissants from Luca when they were on the Island of Despair, but they came out really bad. Eler was so amused that she laughed at him for a long time.
The shape of the croissants and pot pies he made looked strange. Even Nyla refused to eat them when she saw them. Even though she was told that the fillings and the crust were prepared by Luca, the child was reluctant to have them. She even said that they tasted unpleasant just by looking at them.
Amur never made pot pies and croissants again after that.
“I can teach you. Don’t you want to find out what the good news is?” Luca knew what he had in mind.
