"That's wonderful!" Nina looked at the skewers on the tray and saw that there were many vegetables and meat, all of which were
her favorites.
"We're having a tea party between friends. We're not rich ladies getting together, so it feels natural to eat some down-to-earth
food." Luca winked playfully at Nina.
"There are a lot of things here that I like to eat! Luca, you're too good to be true." Nina sighed with joy. She only had a few meals
with Luca and had not expressed her preferences openly but Luca just seemed to know.
"I'm glad that you like them. Vivian helped too." Luca looked at Vivian, who was beside her smiling shyly.
Nina gave Vivian a hug and thanked her, "Vivian, thank you."
"Nina, you're welcome." Vivian hugged her back.
Luca put the tray on the table, looked at Aunt Neile, and said, "Aunt Neile, there are some skewers in the kitchen. Please bring
them to Mr. Crawford and get the children to come down for some snacks."
"Okay, Ms. Craw." Aunt Neile smiled and went upstairs.
Luca brought out the coffee, milk tea, and various baked snacks. It was a tea party between adults, so she put some snacks for
the children on another plate and asked them to watch TV in the living room. The three adults sat on chairs in the dining room,
chatting and tasting the delicious food.
"Mm, it's appetizing! Luca, I love all the food you cook!" Nina picked a skewer and took a bite. Her taste buds were instantly
conquered.
"Yeah, it's so flavourful!" Vivian echoed. Having tasted the skewers made by Luca, she felt that the skewers in the school food
street were not all that.
Luca's skewers were much better.
"Eat more if you like them." Luca poured some milk tea for Nina and looked at Vivian. "Vivian, do you want to have some?"
"Try it. Don't just drink coffee. Milk tea and skewers is the perfect combination!" Nina was distracted by the delicious food in front
of her and temporarily forgot about the Mallory family.
She found that no matter when and where, the sadness in her heart could always temporarily melt away when Luca was around.
Luca seemed to have a magical ability that made her misery disappear for the time being.
"Okay, I'll try some. Thank you." Vivian smiled shyly as Luca poured her a cup of milk tea. She took a sip and fell in love with the
taste. "I thought that you have to have tea or coffee at a tea party. I didn't expect that milk tea would taste so good!"
"The milk tea made by Luca is top-notch." Nina praised. She knew that it was not a takeaway as soon as she tasted it.
"Luca, you're great! Anyone who lives with you will have a wonderful life." Vivian could not help but sigh with admiration.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Luca smiled awkwardly as the two praised her to the high heavens.
"We're not talking nonsense. The milk tea, skewers, and baked goods are really delicious," Nina said with a smile. She asked
Vivian's opinion, "Vivian, what do you think?"
“Mm, you're right. They're mouth-watering," Vivian nodded in agreement.
Tommy came over with two cups in his hands and said in a childish voice, "Ms. Luca, can you give us some more milk tea? Lanie
and I both want another cup."
"Of course. Come here and give me your cups." Luca agreed. After all, she made this milk tea herself. It was made with organic
ingredients and did not include any additives, so it was great for the children.
She poured two cups of milk tea and served it to them instead of letting Tommy do it.
Vivian could not help but say, "Luca is so kind to the children."
"Yeah, she treats the kids just like her own. She said children have no bad intentions. They'll treat whoever treats them well just
as much. Luca takes good care of the children, both in front of and behind people. The kids love her." Nina sighed.
Vivian grinned and could not help but wonder how great it would be if she had a child too.
'Who can I have children with...?'
After Luca brought the milk tea to the living room, she returned and continued to hang out with them.
On the other hand.
In the hospital.
After Pierre sent Madam Mallory's ID card to the hospital, he paid the deposit and went through the admission procedures under
the guidance of the nurse. After that, he went to her ward.
Madam Mallory had not woken up yet.
Percy sat on the sofa in the ward. He nodded slightly when he saw Pierre walk in. His gaze was cold as he said, "You're here."
"What did you do? You made Mom like this!" Pierre said indiscriminately and stepped forward to confront the person sitting on
the sofa.
Percy explained in a cold tone, "She has high blood pressure."
"You're talking nonsense. Mom has never had high blood pressure. I asked the doctor. Her blood pressure rose because she
was triggered. You know that she doesn't agree with you being with Nina, but you still pissed her off so badly! The Mallory family
doesn't welcome you!" Pierre's mood darkened as he tried to grab Percy's collar.
The two were about the same height, so Percy swatted his hand away when he noticed his intentions. "Don't think I don't know
what you're up to."
Pierre snorted coldly and replied, "You're cornered, Percy. After this incident, do you think you can still run amok at Mallory
Corporation? When you're fired, you can't even protect Nina!"
"Even if I'm not at the Mallory Corporation, I won't make your life easy. Also, Nina is my woman. Don't even think about touching
her. She's your sister-in-law no matter if I'm running Mallory Corporation or not. Pierre, you'll have to call her your sister-in-law for
the rest of your life." Percy knew what he was thinking.
Pierre's desire for Nina was inexplicable. He could not understand it.
Nevertheless, he would not let Nina go without a fight.
'It doesn't matter even if I'm no longer the CEO of Mallory Corporation. I've prepared for a long time to protect Nina.'
"Hoho, brother. This may be the last time I refer to you as my brother. I'll own everything that you care about, including Mallory
Corporation and Nina. Do you know why? That's because I'm smarter than you. I'll make Nina leave you to be my mistress.
When you have nothing, maybe I can give you a bite to eat if you beg me." Pierre's tone was gloomy. The corners of his mouth
were raised slightly as he imagined how it would be when he had everything he wanted.
At that time, he would be blazed in eternal glory.
'Percy would be worse off than what I have to go through now!'
When he thought of having Percy beg for mercy at his feet, the smile on Pierre's mouth became even more wanton. It revealed
his inner thoughts.
Percy calmly replied, "You'll never succeed."
After that, he glanced at Madam Mallory, who was still lying on the hospital bed. He turned around to leave.
It would only make Madam Mallory angry if he was there when she woke up. He preferred to have Johann keep him posted on
her condition.
