There was fear in Nina’s voice. Luca could not just sit idly by.


    She nced at theboratory and made a decision at that moment. She walked toward the office.


    “Don’t open the door first and block it with the cab. Wait for me.”


    When Nina knew Luca wasing, she felt calmer. However, Perrie was no angel. A thought came


    into her mind and she said worriedly, “No, don’te over. I’ll barricade the door with the cab first.


    If he can’t get in, he’ll probably stop after a while.”


    Perrie Mallory was the second young master of the Mallory family. Only a few in A City were able to


    deal with him, so she dared not to call the police either.


    It was because she knew that when the police heard it was Perrie, they would certainly leave him


    alone. They might even think of a way to open the door for him and wee Perrie in.


    Luca would probably fight with Perrie if she came here.


    Nina did not want her best friend to get into trouble because of her, so she stopped Luca after she


    thought about it for a few seconds.


    She was so frightened that she did not know who she should look for help from. She called Luca when


    she came into her mind. Nina was unwilling to drag Luca into this.


    Luca knew what she was worried about. Perrie was famous for being ruthless. Although he was not as


    cruel as Percy, he only appeared that way. Many were still scared of him.


    He was a vindictive man as well…


    “Don’t worry. There’s nothing Perrie can do to me,” said Luca. If it was about fighting and martial arts,


    she was sure she was pretty good at them.


    Even though she had never fought with Perrie, she had faith in herself.


    When Nina heard that Luca wasing, she got anxious. She truly did not want Luca to mess with a


    man like Perrie. “Luca, if you muste, bring Mr. Crawford along with you.”


    Luca walked back into the office, as she was taking off herb coat, she switched on the phone’s


    speaker and put it on the table. She paused for a moment when she heard that.


    Nina realized she was not talking, and she said in a hurried tone, “Luca, please don’te here alone.


    Please ask Mr. Crawford toe with you.”


    If only a few people in A City were able to stop Perrie’s crazy behavior, then other than Percy, the other


    person would certainly be Luke Crawford.


    Should she ask Luke toe along?


    Luca was hesitating. Luke was probably together with Tia upstairs…


    “Luca, did you hear me?” Nina realized Luca was still not talking, so she asked anxiously.


    “I heard you. But I think Mr. Crawford is busy now, and I’m too embarrassed to ask him. I’ll go alone.


    Remember to protect yourself, and don’t open the door for him until you hear me.” Luca told her as she


    did not n to ask Luke toe along.


    Besides, he was dating Tia now. Even if they were not, she was in no position to ask for his help.


    Nina replied immediately when she heard what Luca said. “You don’t have to ask him. I will, and both of


    you wille together. Let me call Mr. Crawford.”


    Before Luca could say anything, Nina hung up the phone.


    She thought that if Luke was willing to help, that would be best. After all, Perrie would have to show


    some respect to him.


    However, if she were to ask Luke toe along herself, then she would rather fight with Perrie.


    Luca stopped thinking about this. After she took off the white-coloredb coat, she asked Rhett to ask


    for leave on behalf of her. The reason was that she was not feeling well.


    After what had happened at the apartment, this would be the best reason to ask for a leave. Luke


    would not know about it either. After Luca was informed that her leave was approved, she left the


    company immediately.


    She took the elevator and came to the ground floor. When she was about to hail a taxi, a Bentley


    stopped in front of her.


    She recognized this car. It was Luke’s.


    When Luca thought if she should just turn around and leave, Luke pushed the car door open and got


    out of the car. He stood up straight and was staring at Luca.


    “Dr. Craw, where are you going?” Luke asked.


    “I’m not feeling well. I’d like to go to the hospital. I’ve already taken leave,” Luca said, but she was


    secretly wondering. Was he not talking to Tia upstairs? Why was he down here at this time and even


    driving his car?


    Could it be Nina? Before she hung up earlier, she told her that she would inform Luke.


    If he was truly going to Nina’s apartment, then Luca had just shot herself in the foot by telling him that


    lie just now.


    “Get in the car,” said Luke.


    Luca stood there. She had just lied, and her eyes were shifty. She was quietly ming herself for


    responding too quickly.


    She was always unable to calm herself down whenever she ran into Luke.


    When Luca was feeling frustrated, she heard him speak again, “You’re bringing Nina to the hospital,


    right? Let me send you over.”


    Luca nodded her head once he finished talking. She confirmed that she was going to Nina’s ce. She


    got into the car without dy.


    “Give me the location,” said Luke. He did not think much after he received Nina’s phone call. However,


    what surprised him was Nina telling him that she had informed Luca as well.


    Nina and Luca only got to know each other not long ago. Even so, both of them got along like sisters,


    just like Bianca and Nina back then. Their close rtionship astonished him.


    Luca was fastening her seat belt and telling him the address of the neighborhood where Nina was


    staying.


    “There?” Luke raised his eyebrows.


    Luca gave him a confused look. There were many districts in A City. The neighborhood that Nina was


    staying in was considered high-end, but it was nothingpared to the districts and locations of Luke’s


    properties.


    “Is there anything wrong with that neighborhood?” Luca asked, but she already had an answer in her


    heart. They might be thinking the same thing.


    “Nothing. Let’s go.” Luke did not tell her Perrie had a property in that area.


    When Perrie first bought that apartment, Luke had even asked him why he chose that apartment. After


    all, he was not short of cash and there was no need for him to rent the apartment to earn a living.


    Moreover, Perrie would never stay in that apartment.


    The facilities of the neighborhood were not considered the finest.


    At the time, Perrie only smiled mysteriously and said, “I’m saving it forter. It might y a role.”

    It seemed like this was the reason why.


    It was working hours now. There was barely any traffic on the roads in A City. Luke stepped on the


    elerator and sped up. Soon, they were reaching the entrance of the neighborhood.


    Nina had informed the guard earlier, so the guard let them in immediately.


    Luca had apanied Nina to survey the area before. She had a good memory, so she was able to


    point out the building Nina was staying at sessfully.


    Luke had just stopped the car when Luca already unfastened her seatbelt and pushed the car door


    open in one go.


    She was worried about Nina, so she did not care about what Luke would think of her.


    Luke watched her run off in a hurry as if she was worried about Nina’s situation. At the same time, it


    looked like she wanted to fight with Perrie.


    He had listened to every word of their conversation through the surveince camera when she was


    talking to Nina on the phone earlier.
