Nina looked at Luca with a serious expression. Sometimes, she felt like Luca had known her forever.
How did Luca know her so well?
“Luca, have you been secretly investigating me?”
“No, I haven't.” Luca was surprised. “What makes you say that?”
“You know me so well. It's shocking!” replied Nina. “Sometimes I really wonder if you can read my mind. How else could you know me so well?”
“Is that so? Do I know you well?” Luca smiled. “Even if I did investigate you, I wouldn’t be able to do it so thoroughly. I just feel like you’re that kind of person.”
Nina nodded. “Yeah, things have definitely changed after getting married.”
Luca listened to her without saying anything.
“To be precise, after the wedding, I've been feeling like I need to work harder to stand by Percy’s side and not be a burden to him. The old, go-with-the-flow me is gone.”
“Working hard isn’t necessarily a bad thing,” replied Luca. It was not that Nina’s old way of life was bad. Everyone would choose different ways to live at different stages of life.
Nina changing her lifestyle now showed how much she cared about her marriage with Percy.
“Yes, even though it’s a lot of pressure, I’ll do my best to be a good Mrs. Mallory,” Nina said cheerfully.
She did not know why, but she felt like Luca was like a life mentor to her.
Every word she said was full of wisdom and seemed to resonate with her mindset.
Luca’s words always seemed to soothe her inner restlessness.
After Luke and Percy left, they soon returned.
Luca noticed a change in their expressions and asked instinctively, “Why do you both look like that? What happened?”
“Nina’s…” Luke frowned and thought for a moment. Although they had blood ties, their family relationship had long been severed. Thus, he said, “Anna and Jean are coming."
Nina was surprised and asked, “How do they know we’re at Crawford Manor?”
“Jean gained a lot of shady connections when he was running his business,” explained Percy.
He figured those people probably told Jean.
“Damn it! Nina cursed. “They just won’t quit!”
Luca frowned. Jean and Anna would do anything for money.
Percy added, “He’s also called a few thugs to come over here.”
“What is he trying to do?!” Nina shot up angrily. “When will it ever end?”
“Nina, don’t get upset,” Luca tried to calm her.
“Do they have any shame?” Nina was extremely annoyed. It made sense why she was feeling that way earlier. Perhaps she had sensed trouble ahead. She said, “Percy, let’s go back. We shouldn’t cause any more trouble for the Crawford family.”
It would be better to handle this kind of thing at home to avoid causing trouble for the Crawford family if Jean came over.
“It’s too late,” replied Percy, “The security guard notified us as soon as he knew they were coming. Jean even mentioned that he wanted to make trouble for Luke, so he’s already on his way here. Even if we leave, they might not leave right away.”
Nina frowned. Jean not only wanted to cause trouble for her but also for Luke?
“Has he lost his mind? How can he still dare to cause trouble?” Nina paced back and forth, her frustration evident. If she were not wearing a dress today, she would probably be in a full-blown rage.
“Causing trouble is fine,” said Luke when he saw how frustrated Nina was. “As long as you don't let your emotions get the best of you, he won't be able to cause much trouble.”
“I won’t let this happen. The moment they chose money over me, I was done with them.” Nina’s gaze darkened.
Luca put a comforting arm around her shoulders.
