Luca did not force him when he refused toe in. She dragged her luggage along and entered the


    apartment.


    The apartment was still clean even after she had been away for a few days. High-end residences were


    quite different from the others. There was a big area of greenery, so there was not much pollution. The


    dust would not go into the house either.


    Luca left her luggage aside. She took out her phone andy down on the couch carefreely.


    She was exhausted after traveling all the way here. She only wanted to sink into the couch…


    She was reluctant to show how tired she was when Luke was there just now. Her waist was already


    protesting silently after enduring the pain throughout the journey.


    Luca spent some time lying down, then she sat up. She took the painkillers out from her bag, filled up a


    ss, and drank it with the medicine.


    She did not even have the energy to boil some water.


    Although the injury on her waist was nothing serious, the dull pain that kepting back to her was the


    deadliest.


    Luca let out a sigh. If it was not bad to consume medicine with an empty stomach, she would have


    taken the medicine at the hotel before she got onto the ne.


    She looked at her phone after taking some rest. Amur had sent her a messagest night. She was


    already fast asleep at that time. She did not get the chance to look at her phone when she woke up this


    morning.


    Luca smiled when she saw his words of reminder. After she replied to him that she had already


    reached A City safely, she closed all the tabs.


    She then remembered Nina.


    She sent a message to Nina when she crossed her mind, asking how she had been doing recently.


    Nina replied to her message quickly. She only wrote two simple words. [Pretty good…]


    Pretty good?


    …


    Luca thought it was not Nina’s style to answer like this. If she was truly doing fine, she would have


    added a few more words, then ended with a greeting at the end of the sentence.


    Atst, Luca looked at those words and asked: [Did something happen?]


    Nina called after a while.


    Luca answered the call. Her heart sank when she listened to Nina’s exhausted voice. She knew


    something must have happened to Nina.


    “Luca, have youe back from the trip? I didn’t think it’d be that fast.” Even though she said it calmly,


    Luca could sense the istion and fatigue in her words.


    “Yes, I’m back. What happened to you?” Luca asked with concern.


    Nina let out a sigh and answered, “Nothing. I’m fine. Why did youe back so soon? Did the


    company end the trip earlier?”


    “No. I have something to do here, so I followed Mr. Crawford back. What the hell happened to you?


    You sound tired. Did something bad happen?” Luca asked. She insisted on finding out the reason why


    Nina sounded so upset.


    Nina paused for a moment. She felt a lump in her throat when she saw how much Luca cared about


    her.


    She had been going through a tough time these few days. People would point at her and call her


    names whenever she went out of the apartment, iming that she was the mistress who ruined other


    people’s rtionships.


    The rtionship that they were referring to was the rtionship between Percy and the daughter of the


    Johnston family.


    Nina was extremely depressed. How did she ruin their rtionship?


    She took the initiative to leave once she knew Percy was getting married to the daughter of the


    Johnston family. She never contacted that man again. However, a bunch of people was now mocking


    her. What was the meaning of all this?


    Everything should be determined by the order of arrival. She got together with Percy before the


    daughter of the Johnston family. Although she kept her identity hidden, she was the one who appeared


    first.


    Why was she being med for ruining their rtionship now? Whose rtionship was she ruining?


    Sh*t happened every time. Apart from the matter with Percy, there was Anna’s affair, her loser brother,


    and Jean’s matter.


    Nina only wanted to end her life when all these things befell her. She refused to face them.


    Nina was so quiet on the other side of the phone, and Luca knew something bad must have happened.


    She asked her in a soft voice, “Nina? Do you want toe out and grab a drink?”


    Nina refused to talk on the phone, so Luca could only ask her out. Although she was feeling unwell,


    she felt much better after taking the painkillers.


    The person on the other side of the phone gave a dyed response after a while. “Sure. Pick a


    location. Oh, the ce has to have private rooms. I’d like a private room.”


    “Sure.” Luca chose a coffee shop that was not far away from Nina’s apartment, which also had private


    rooms.


    She called to reserve a private room there. Then, she changed her clothes, went out, and hailed a ride.


    Nina got there faster than her. She was already waiting for Luca in the private room when Luca


    reached the coffee shop. Luca entered and sat down. She was startled for a moment when she saw


    the haggard look on Nina’s face.


    She knew something must have happened to her…


    Luca was not allowed to have coffee now, so she ordered a ss of juice.


    She asked after the waiter left, “Alright. Tell me. What happened?”


    Nina smiled bitterly. She did not feel like telling Luca about it on the phone, but now when she was


    looking at Luca, she felt a sense of intimacy. She had the urge to tell her everything that was in her


    heart.


    “Is there anything you want to know?” Since she was willing to talk to Luca about it now, then she


    would not hesitate or refuse to say anything.


    Luca replied, “Everything.”


    Nina smiled bitterly while she was stirring the coffee in front of her. She sighed and said, “I don’t know


    where to begin.”


    Luca looked at how distressed Nina was and she knew she must have gone through a lot in the past


    few days.


    Luca was a little frustrated. If she had not gone on the trip, she probably would have been able to keep


    Ninapany.


    However, too many things had happened during the trip. She could not even manage to take good care


    of herself, not to mention find the time to care about Nina.

    “Then you may start from the biggest trouble in your heart.”


    The biggest trouble?


    Nina thought for a while. What was her biggest trouble?


    Was it Anna’s condition? Was it Jean’s stubbornness? Was it the annoying Percy and the daughter of


    the Johnston family?


    Nina thought for a while and said slowly, “People have been calling me a mistress recently.”


    “Percy?” Luca frowned. She did not ask the details but she knew that this had something to do with


    Percy.


    Nina was together with him for such a long time. He was the only man who would get her dragged into


    such a situation.


    Nina nodded. “I don’t know how the daughter of the Johnston family knows about our past. Now,


    everyone is calling me a mistress and ming me for ruining their rtionship. I didn’t do anything. I


    even took the initiative to return him to her. Everything I’ve done was to make sure I can live with no


    regrets for the rest of my life. But I’m being scolded like a person hated by everyone. I feel so


    ufortable. Even if I was Percy’s lover back then, he didn’t have a girlfriend or fiancee when I was


    together with him. How did I be the mistress?”
