"Okay..." Tommy did not continue to pester her when he noticed that Vivian seemed to be fine.
Vivian liked Tommy so much. She pinched his chubby little face.
Tommy waved his hand and said, "Ms. Vivian, if anyone bullies you, you must tell me. I'll beat them up for you!"
"Okay. If someone bullies me, you'll beat them up for me, okay?" Vivian held Tommy's hand.
Tommy nodded vigorously.
"Okay. I'm going to the kitchen to check on Aunt Neile and see if dinner's ready." Luca saw how close Tommy and
Vivian were. She smiled and headed to the kitchen.
Aunt Neile was about to serve the soup on the dining table. She asked Luca when she saw her coming in. "Ms. Craw,
is Mr. Crawford working overtime again today?"
Aunt Neile made a guess when she saw that Luke had yet to come back.
"Yes. I forgot to inform you just now," Luca replied embarrassedly. She was supposed to tell Aunt Neile about it, but
she hurried upstairs to look for Vivian when she came back and forgot about it.
"It's alright. I'll save some soup for Mr. Crawford, then," Aunt Neile replied with a smile.
"Leave it to me. Please serve the soup first," said Luca. She thought there must be some soup left in the pot.
Luca picked up the ladle and carefully filled the thermos bottle with the soup left in the pot. Then, she put it aside.

came back.
After Aunt Neile placed the soup bowl on the dining table, she returned to the kitchen and served the other dishes
on the dining table with Luca.
After dinner, it was time for the kids to watch their cartoon show.
Luca and Vivian accompanied the kids to watch the show. When the advertisements were playing, Luca clicked on
the push notifications to see the news preview.
Luca frowned when she saw the news pinned on top. She rose to her feet and headed upstairs.
Rainie watched Luca from behind and asked, "What's wrong with Ms. Luca?"
"She probably has something to deal with," said Vivian. She stared at Luca from behind with an envious gaze.
Although it seemed inappropriate for Luca to stay by Luke's side, Luca had never used this to get anything she
wanted. Luca put in effort for everything she did. It made her who she was today, and all the achievements she
earned were hers.
Vivian was envious of that.
She wondered when she could become someone like Luca. Luca was successful and stunning.
“That's true. Ms. Luca has always been busy," said Rainie.
Rainie could feel that after their mother returned, she became busier than she was back then. She seemed to
always have something on her mind too.
However, there was nothing the kids could do to help her.
Luca came upstairs and called Nina.
The phone rang a few times, and only then did Nina answer the call. "Luca, why are you calling at this hour? What's
the matter?"
Luca could hear that Nina was out as it was a little noisy. It did not sound like she was at home. Luca was worried
that she might have disturbed Nina, so she made it short. "I saw the news. Are you both okay?" Luca went straight
to the point, but she asked tactfully too.
Luca had just seen the press conference held by Old Master Mallory.
He was forcing Percy to choose between the Mallory Corporation and Nina.
"You saw it too..." Nina sounded helpless. She turned around and glanced at the meeting room. She was at Mallory
Corporation now.
Percy was attending a meeting. He was worried about leaving Nina alone at home. That was why he asked the
chauffeur to pick her up and bring her to the office.
Nina had been waiting until now since Percy was still in the meeting.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What does Mr. Mallory plan to do next?" Luca asked. Although there was nothing Luca could do to help them, she
cared about Nina.
It was not easy for Nina to live a happy life again. She could not let it be destroyed easily.
"Don't worry. We're fine. Percy isn't planning to give up on me. He's having a meeting now. I'm at Mallory
Corporation too. Everything's fine." Nina knew what Luca was worried about.
Nina did not realize she would be reminded of Bianca whenever Luca showed her concern.
Compared to Bianca, who had lost her memory, Nina thought the person in front of her was similar to the Bianca
she used to know.
"Okay. I'm glad to hear that." Luca let out a sigh of relief. Although she knew Percy was not that kind of person, she
had to find out the details.
Luca did not want to see Nina getting hurt again.
"Luca, don't worry. He'll never let go of my hands no matter what awaits us in the future. Besides, we've already
gone through the marriage registration formalities in the country. Our names are listed in the country's marriage
records now. Percy said that after the shareholder's meeting, we'll hold a wedding," said Nina. Percy had promised
Nina that he would give her a grand wedding.
Old Master Mallory held the press conference to give Percy an ultimatum.
However, Percy told her that he wanted both the company and her. Since it had been announced to the public, he
would do it thoroughly. Once he was done dealing with all the problems, he would hold a grand wedding for Nina.
