Luca saw how happy Nina seemed. 'People will be in good spirits when they're happy.'
She nodded and said, "Yes, I promised the kids yesterday, so I have to honor it."
Nina heard the faint hoarseness in her voice and immediately noticed her exhausted demeanor. She quickly asked,
"Luca, did you catch a cold? Your voice is a little hoarse..."
"No, I'm just tired from working yesterday." Luca made up a random excuse.
'My voice is hoarse all because of Luke...'
"No wonder. You must have been tired from being an assistant yesterday. You're so tired but still insist on making
breakfast for the children. Why don't you take a break..." Nina followed her into the kitchen.
Luca touched her face. 'Do I look that bad..'
She did not pay much attention when she was washing up.
"It was snowing lightly yesterday and I stood outside for a long time. I was sitting and working most of the time, so
it's normal that I feel a little tired," Luca explained in a casual tone.
Nina nodded in agreement.
"Making breakfast isn't a complicated matter. It'll take me about half an hour," Luca said as she opened the
refrigerator to take out the ingredients.
"I'll help you. I'm not very good at cooking, but I've become interested in it recently," Nina said.
Percy got a maid to take good care of all aspects of her life over the last few years, so she had not made any
progress in her amateur cooking skills over the years.
Nina wanted to learn how to cook with Luca seeing how amazing of a cook she was.
She wanted to prepare a sumptuous dinner for Percy herself.
Luca smiled at her and said, "Are you thinking of cooking for Mr. Percy?"
"Yeah, I haven't cooked a meal for him yet, so I want to learn how to cook." Nina admitted to her feelings openly.
She used to be shy about their relationship, but now that they were legally married, she would unabashedly
acknowledge their loving relationship.

Luca said.
"Will the food taste the same as when you make it?” Nina thoroughly enjoyed Luca's cooking.
Percy had also praised how delicious it was.
"Yes." Luca nodded. She came up with all the recipes on her own.
When she lived with the Rayne family, her life was difficult although her grandfather and father loved her with
everything that they had. She would occasionally go hungry.
She had to study and cook by herself. She was very talented at cooking, so over time, she developed a set of
recipes that suited her taste.
"That's great, Luca. Thank you!" Nina thanked her.
"I'll pass you the recipes later. Let's start with 10. Try to figure it out for yourself and let me know if you don't
understand anything," Luca said.
Nina was not stupid. Luca believed that she could figure it out with some detailed instructions.
"Okay, thank you!" Nina thanked her once more. With Luca's help, she believed that she would be able to prepare a
sumptuous dinner for Percy when she returned to A City.
"What can I help you with now?" she asked.
"Help me wash the greens," Luca said. She planned to cook a rich breakfast since it was breakfast and Percy and
Nina were around.
"Okay." Nina put on an apron, rolled up her sleeves, and helped with washing the vegetables.
On the balcony.
When Percy was about to go downstairs, he saw Luke on the balcony, so he went back to his bedroom, put on his
coat, and opened the glass door of the balcony.
"What are you doing?" he asked, only to see Luke smoking when he got close.
Although the sun was out, Luke was smoking in the cold, so Percy thought that something was wrong with him.
"There's something on my mind." Luke put out the cigarette.
The ash fell on the snow and was instantly extinguished.
Percy raised an eyebrow and said, "Dr. Craw?"
Luke glanced around to see if Luca was around.
"Don't worry. My wife just texted me that she's downstairs learning how to cook from Dr. Craw." Percy knew why he
was looking around.
Neither Luca nor Nina could be there for their conversation.
When Luke learned that Luca would not come up, he said in a neutral tone, "I haven't found the location of the
Island of Despair."
"They've become more alert since you joined hands with the Russian police to eliminate them the last time. It's
normal that we can't find them for the time being." Percy analyzed.
Not only were Luke's men looking, but Percy was also mobilizing his forces to search for them.
There were also foreign forces involved. They were all looking for the Island of Despair.
However, the person in charge of the Island of Despair was cunning. Even though there were many forces after
them, they were not able to find any trace.
Luca was the only one that knew where the Island of Despair is.
However, she could not tell them about it.
Luke was unsure how the other party was controlling her to the point where she still did not reveal anything to Luke
even in such a situation.
"I have a hunch that the Island of Despair is still where it was." Luke narrowed his eyes.
He was a businessman, and it was taboo for any businessman to act on a hunch.
However, Luke's hunch was inexplicable, and he was firm with it, which was why he got someone to monitor the
former site of the Island of Despair.
"Although there are still several islands near the old site of the Island of Despair, your men are monitoring the area
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmday and night. It's impossible that your men wouldn't notice them if they're still there. So, do you want to change..."
Percy suggested.
He had already suggested that to Jim Holston.
Instead of having a group of people monitor a deserted island, they should be searching elsewhere.
"I'm not giving up," Luke said. He insisted on monitoring the site.
Ray's men had conducted investigations. They parked every case around the world that was not claimed by any
organization under the Island of Despair.
With so many cases, the Island of Despair was definitely growing in terms of manpower.
Therefore, they need a large base to accommodate these people.
The Island of Despair was different from other crime organizations.
Those working under other crime organizations were bold and did not have to worry about their family members
being affected. They had free space and time to live like normal people.
However, the Island of Despair's management style was strict. Only those who were high-ranking could contact the
outside world.
As such, the Island of Despair needed a big place to keep these people in captivity.
Percy patted him on the shoulder. He was unsure of how to comfort him at that moment.
"We have so many people. I don't believe that we can't find them. We'll search all over the world. It's just a matter
of time." Percy said.
If time permitted, they could indeed run a global search.
However, they did not have that kind of time.
Luke had been carefully watching Luca's expression whenever Luca listened to the children speak. He could tell that
she had a lot on her mind.
There was not much time left for them.
He had to move faster.
