The antipyretic fluid entered Nina''s vein little by little.


    After Johann adjusted the speed of the drip, he looked at Percy and saw how in pain he looked. He


    joked, saying, "It''s just an injection. Her fever is so high that she won’t feel any pain no matter how


    sensitive she is to it."


    Percy frowned even more when he heard that.


    Seeing that Percy was not in the mood to talk, Johann touched his nose and did not continue the


    conversation. He went through some of the things to be mindful of and left.


    ...


    Luca was in the vi worrying about Nina while taking care of the children.


    Her refusals about Luke moving in with the three kids had gone unheard.


    The truth was that she wanted more than anything to live with the children and Luke...


    The cleaningdy arrived to help take care of the children. As per Luke’s instructions, she bought a


    bunch of ingredients before she came to the vi.


    When Luca saw her, she took the initiative to put the groceries in the refrigerator.

    Lanie and Rainie were both doing their homework in the living room. When they saw Luca carrying the


    ingredients into the kitchen, Rainie whispered to Lanie, "Ms. Luca won''t leave, right?"


    "Daddy was so unconvincing. I had a long chat with Ms. Luca yesterday. I don''t think she’ll leave?"


    Lanie muttered. If their daddy could convince her to stay, they would not have to be so worried.


    Rainie gave him a thumbs-up and praised him, "Lanie, you’re awesome! If Ms. Luca stays, we should


    all thank you."


    Lanie looked at his sister''s admiration and grinned from ear to ear. "It’s no big deal as long as we can


    make Daddy happy and protect our family. Rainie, you have to put in some work too, okay?"


    "Ah, what should I do?" Rainie nced at the kitchen and saw that Luca was still inside, so they


    continued the discussion.


    "Ms. Luca is soft-hearted. You’re a girl, so acting weak will soften her heart." Lanie gave her an idea.


    "Spend some time with Ms. Luca to show her your vulnerability and how you’re scared of


    Greatgrandpa. By then, she’ll not have the heart to leave and we can leave the rest to Daddy."


    Rainie nodded, indicating that she knew what to do.


    Just as they were done chatting, Luca came out with a te full of cut fruits. She looked at the twins


    and said, "I cut some fruits for you. Do you want to have some?"


    "Yes!" Lanie and Rainie said in unison.


    Luca put the te in front of them. She did not see Tommy, so she asked curiously, "Where''s Tommy?"


    "Tommy finished his homework and went upstairs to look for his coloring book," Rainie replied.


    Luca nodded and looked at their homework. The children had grown up and were smart. They did not


    need her guidance toplete their homework. She could not help but sigh for missing out on the


    period when the children were still growing up.


    Rainie picked up a piece of apple with a fork and held it to Luca''s mouth. "Ms. Luca, have some."


    Luca smiled slightly. Rainie''s heart-warming action made her feel as though her heart had melted. She


    opened her mouth and carefully ate the piece of apple given to her by Rainie.


    The apple was refreshing and sweet. Luca ate it slowly.


    Rainie smiled, her eyebrows curving like the moon. "Ms. Luca, is it delicious?"


    Luca looked at her smile and it reminded her of when she was younger. She nodded and said, "It''s


    delicious. You should have some too."


    Rainie got a piece and chewed it slowly like her.


    "I''m going to ask Tommy toe down." Luca stood up and was about to go upstairs to get Tommy


    when she saw Luke walk in.


    "Daddy, have some apples. Ms. Luca cut them for us!" Lanie greeted him when he saw Lukee in.


    Luke walked over, looked at the sliced apples, then at Luca.


    "Have you found Nina?" Luca asked immediately, not even bothering to say hello. She was worried sick


    about Nina. If she was not worried that calling them might affect their operation, she would have called


    to ask if Luke had found Nina.


    "We have. She''s in the hospital now," Luke said.


    Luca''s heart tightened, her eyes showing concern for Nina as she asked, "Is she injured?"


    "No. She has a fever and is being treated in the hospital." Luke knew she was worried about Nina and


    did not hide anything from her.


    Luca nced at the children with a hesitant expression.


    Even if she did not say anything, Luke knew what she was thinking about. "If you want to go to the


    hospital, go. I can stay here to watch the kids."


    Luca was stunned. She did not say anything but he knew exactly what was in her mind.


    They were still so in sync even though three years had passed.


    "Thank you," Luca said. She turned around and went upstairs, intending to change into a fresh set of


    clothes and head to the hospital. She suddenly thought of Pierre, so she turned around and asked,


    "Did Pierre do it?"


    "Yes." Luke nodded.


    "Will Mr. Mallory be going after him?" Luca continued to ask. Pierre escaped cunningly the time she


    was kidnapped. This time, she did not want to see Pierre get off scot-free.


    "Yes," Luke said. Even though Percy did not say what he was going to do with Pierre, Luke knew that


    something was about to happen.


    Pierre had done so many terrible things that Percy''s love for his brother had long been exhausted. Not


    to mention, Nina was his everything. No one was allowed to touch her.


    Pierre had publicly offended his woman, so a break between the two brothers was inevitable.


    Luca nodded and went upstairs to change. Tommy saw here out of the bedroom, walked over, and


    hugged her hand. "Ms. Luca, where are you going? Take me with you? "


    "I''m going to the hospital to visit Aunt Nina. There are many germs in the hospital, so I can''t take you


    with me," Luca said. Since Nina had just been rescued, she must be in shock. Bringing the child over


    would only make a scene.


    Tommy still wanted to follow her but when he saw Luke walk upstairs, he said obediently, "Okay, Ms.


    Luca. Come back quickly. I''ll wait for you at home."


    Luca noticed that Tommy mentioned that he would be waiting for her at home, not ''here''...


    She was unsure if he said it unintentionally or intentionally.


    "Okay." She patted Tommy''s head, turned around to leave, and saw Luke. She nodded and went off.


    Luke said suddenly, "I''ll drive you there."


    "You''re going too?" Luca was stunned. ''Didn''t he just say that he would stay here to take care of the


    kids?''


    "Mm, I have something to discuss with Percy," Luke said.


    Luca nced at Tommy behind her and asked, "The kids..."


    "With the cleaningdy here, it won''t be a problem," Luke said. Although the cleaningdy he arranged


    was not from Crawford Manor, she was someone he could trust. The children would not make a fuss


    about going out, so one caretaker was more than enough to take care of them.
