Nina nodded, reluctant to discuss anything about Pierre.
However, she was still the one who brought up the topic. Nina nodded after Scarlett asked her that question, hoping it was enough of a reply.
"It's been so many days sincet he’s been kidnapped. There's still no news from the kidnappers?" asked Scarlett. Normally, if the kidnappers were after money, they would have contacted the victim's family to negotiate the terms for a ransom.
It was unusual for someone like Pierre to be kidnapped without anyone contacting his family.
"No," Nina understood Scarlett's doubt. Kidnappers would usually either ask for ransom or proceed to traffick them.
It was unlikely for someone as recognizable as Pierre to be trafficked.
When they first heard of Pierre’s kidnapping, everyone thought the kidnappers were after the money. Therefore, they were investigating the case while waiting for the kidnappers' phone call.
However, they have yet to receive any news despite it having been such a long time.
Some people were speculating that Pierre might have offended someone and got kidnapped because of that. If that was the case, the kidnappers would not be after money, and his life would be in danger.
No one dared to voice such an idea since it was the Mallory family who was involved in this.
Luca flipped through the photo album samples silently.
Abel would contact the Mallory family to ask for the ransom tomorrow. There was finally some progress.
Luca's hand could not help but tremble with fear at the thought of Amur personally getting the cash from them himself. She was worried about Amur’s safety.
"Luca, why are your hands shaking?" Nina raised an eyebrow as she noticed Luca's hands were slightly trembling.
"Huh? No," Luca pretended to glance at her hands. Then she smiled. "You must be mistaken. I'm just stretching my fingers."
Nina was confused. Were her eyes failing her?
She clearly saw Luca's hands shaking earlier. Also, the look on her face showed that she was worried about something.
Nina felt that Luca could not possibly be worried about Pierre's situation. Hence, she eventually concluded that she must’ve misunderstood.
The three of them helped Nina pick her photoshoot style. Nina eventually selected five photo albums that matched her preferred style.
"Finally, it’s done. Thank you, girls." smiled Nina before she glanced at the door of the other private room. "I wonder how they're doing over there."
"They're probably not done yet. Why don't we sing some karaoke while waiting for them?" winked Scarlett. Since the soundproofing in the private room was good, the three ladies could sing as loud as they wanted without disturbing anyone in the other rooms.
So, they started to sing, waiting for the others to finish their discussion.
The moment Nina picked up the microphone, there was a knock at the private room door.
"Have they finished their business?" Nina looked at the two, "Come in."
A waitress pushed in a food cart, "Ladies, I brought you some fruit and drinks.”
The waitress then served two plates of seasonal fruits, “Enjoy the fruits. Just ring the bell if you need anything else."
There was a phone in the private room. They could communicate with the waitress if they needed anything through the phone.
After the waitress left, Nina walked toward the karaoke machine and turned to Luca and Scarlett. "What songs would you like to sing?"
"I’m not a good singer. You should sing with Ms. Craw." smiled Scarlett gently. Then, she glanced at luca.
Luca seemed preoccupied all night. She remained silent most of the time.
