Nina stuck out her tongue, thinking that Karen was crying because her bond with Percy had weakened.
However, it turned out that she was actually upset about losing her status in the Mallory family.
Nina could not understand why people chased after so many unnecessary things.
A simple life had its own beauty.
Chasing after all that nonsense was what truly made life exhausting.
Nina glanced at the time and said, “I’ll be heading back to the apartment in a bit. I want to get some decorating done over the weekend so that things won’t be so hectic right before the wedding.”
Percy agreed, “Alright. Need any help?”
“Nope. What kind of decorating skills do you have anyway? I’ve already asked Luca and Sue to help out. They’ll be coming over." Nina, recalling the playful flick from earlier, could not resist giving his forehead a playful flick of her own.
Percy felt a bit more at ease seeing that Nina was not dwelling on Karen’s situation.
Nina seemed carefree on the outside, but she was actually quite sensitive. That was why he always paid close attention to her feelings and was careful about many things.
The little incident in the morning did not affect Nina at all. By noon, after having lunch, Nina headed over to the apartment.
All the little decorations she had bought for the wedding and the apartment had been delivered there. The property's management staff were kind enough to hold onto everything for her.
Nina made several trips upstairs, carrying the items.
A young woman from the property's management also helped out.
After they finished, Nina tried to give her a tip, but she refused, shaking her head. “Thank you, but no need. Mr. Mallory specifically asked us to help out. It’s our job.”
When Nina heard this, she immediately understood that Percy had already asked them to help.
When he made a request, no one would say no.
Nina thanked the young woman again and then went back to the apartment, pulling off all the dust covers.
Just as she finished, the doorbell rang.
Nina opened the door to find Sue and Luca both there.
“How did you both get here together?” Nina smiled, welcoming them in.
“We just happened to run into each other downstairs,” Sue replied, letting go of her hand as Kari and Teri ran excitedly to the couch, looking at the unopened packages.
“Ms. Nina, do we get to open all these?” asked Kari and Teri.
“Yes, they’re all for decorating,” replied Nina cheerfully, only realizing now just how many packages she had ordered.
There were so many that she could probably sell the cardboard to a recycling collector and make a few bucks.
“There’s so many!” exclaimed Kari.
Rainie, who was a bit older, let go of Luca’s hand and said to Nina, “Ms. Nina, I knew Ms. Luca was coming today, so I tagged along too. Don’t worry, I won’t cause any trouble!”
“You’re all such good kids. I know none of you will cause any trouble. Come on in,” replied Nina.
They all entered the apartment.
After Nina closed the door, she grabbed the drinks she had just bought from the store downstairs. “There’s nothing here yet, so I had to grab some drinks from downstairs. If you want anything specific later, just let me know and I’ll order it.”
“As long as we have something to drink, that’s fine. No need to go out of your way,” Sue said casually, watching Kari and Teri circling around the stack of packages. She urged Nina, “Come on, Nina, start opening these boxes so that we can help you out.”
“Yeah, let's get started,” added Luca. She was not too surprised by the mountain of things Nina had bought.
