“This cup of coffee is from that gentleman for this lady.” The waiter smiled as he explained, placing the cup in front of Luca.
Hera followed the waiter’s gaze and immediately recognized the man Luca had been looking at earlier.
Her eyes darkened. She had noticed the man glancing in their direction. However, she had assumed he was looking at her.
After all, she was dressed seductively, had put on makeup, and was undeniably beautiful. Any man who saw her would be attracted. If a man’s eyes lingered on her, it was not surprising at all.
Realizing that the man had been watching Luca the whole time instead of her, Hera suddenly felt annoyed.
Luca noticed her displeasure, glanced at Gordan, then smiled and said to the waiter, “Please thank the gentleman for me.”
“Of course, miss. Enjoy your coffee.” The waiter, sensing the tension between the two women, quickly grabbed his tray and left before Hera’s sour mood could affect him too.
“Hmph, feeling proud of yourself?” asked Hera.
Luca took a sip of her coffee. It was rich and bitter, with no milk or sugar. It was just the way she liked it.
Hera leaned back and asked, “Does it taste good?”
“Not bad,” replied Luca. This café was a national chain, so, of course, the quality was decent.
“You just drink whatever people give you? Be careful. It might be poisoned,” scoffed Hera.
Luca almost wanted to reply that this was a café, not a bar.
However, after spending some time around Hera, she had come to understand her personality well. Instead of arguing, Luca swallowed her words.
It did not matter what she said. Hera would always find fault with her.
Luca simply took another sip of her coffee.
Hera, feeling completely ignored, grew even more irritated. She picked up her own cup, took a sip, then grimaced. “Ugh, this coffee is overpriced. It tastes awful. Even the instant coffee my boyfriend brings me is better than this.”
Luca wanted to laugh.
However, knowing that Hera would explode if she did, she kept quiet and continued drinking her coffee.
She had a feeling that once Hera’s health report came back, things were about to get busy.
Hera seemed ready to say something else, but when she saw Luca ignoring her, she got even more frustrated. With a huff, she waved over the waiter, handed him a black card, and told him to settle the bill.
Luca knew she was in a bad mood, but she did not comment. She simply took her last sip of coffee and was about to stand up when her phone started buzzing repeatedly.
She picked it up and glanced at the screen.
It was a message from the hospital.
Some of Hera’s test results had come in.
As Luca scanned through the numbers, comparing them to the normal ranges, her expression tightened.
“What are you looking at?” Hera suddenly had a bad feeling from Luca’s reaction.
Luca lifted her gaze and looked at Hera.
Hera’s heart tightened for a moment.
“It’s nothing,” replied Luca as she slipped her phone back into her pocket before standing up and gathering all the shopping bags.
Seeing them getting ready to leave, Gordan also stood up, instinctively stepping forward to help.
Noticing his movement, Luca shook her head slightly, signaling that there was no need.
Gordon froze and then withdrew his hand.
