The hotel doorman was being careful. After he asked for Luca's name and made sure that her name was on the
guest list, he enthusiastically brought her upstairs.
The doormoon pushed the door open when they arrived at the private room, “Ms. Craw, you came early. Please
take a rest first."
Luca frowned and asked, "No one's here yet?"
"Yes. You're the first to arrive," replied the doorman.
Luca nodded. If she had known she would be the first to arrive, she would not have left the office so early.
Luca walked into the room.
A waiter immediately entered the room to serve a fruit plate and pour Luca a glass of water. The service provided
was swift and attentive.
"Miss, may I know if you need anything else?" asked the waiter in a soft voice.
"I'm fine. Thank you." Luca shook her head. The waiter's attitude was friendly and she was simply not used to it.
Luca had experienced all kinds of hospitality when she accompanied Luke in the past.
Now however, it had been a long time since she had stepped into the social circle of the upper class.
The warm hospitality was no longer familiar.
Still, it was fine. Her past experiences allowed her to take things in stride.

Luca was then left alone in the private room.
She counted the chairs. There were a total of six chairs.
There would be Percy and Nina, Luke and her, then the rest of the chairs should be for Jim and Scarlett.
Luca picked up her phone and began to scroll the news on the online forum.
The decision of the shareholders' meeting had been announced by Mallory Corporation. Many investors and
netizens were optimistic about it, but at the same time, they were slandering Pierre.
Some of were even discussing how the people from the Department of Justice and the police officers were looking
for Pierre now, but Pierre had yet to show up. It seemed like he was trying to escape.
Luca raised her brows. Would Pierre run away?
Pierre was a cunning man. It was unlikely that he would just try to escape. He was probably trying to put it off and
figure out a way to deal with it.
The people who helped him to handle these problems were from the Mallory family.
The Mallory family would not sit and watch Pierre him sent to prison without doing anything to stop it. They could
not afford the shame.
Luca continued to scroll through the news. After a while, the door was pushed open by the waiter. "Mr. and Mrs.
Mallory, this way."
Nina and Percy walked into the room, hand in hand. She saw Luca and smiled, “Luca, you're here.”
“Yes. Congratulations, Mr. Mallory.” Luca rose to her feet and congratulated Percy.
Percy kept his job in Mallory Corporation and successfully registered for marriage with Nina. It was two
simultaneous happy events to him indeed.
Percy gave her a faint smile and nodded. "Thank you. Let's sit down."
Luca sat down again.
The waiter pulled out two chairs for them. Nina turned sideways and said to Percy, “I'd like to have a chat with
Luca."
“Okay. Then I'll go outside to return a call,” replied Percy. He then turned around and walked out of the private
room.
Nina pulled out the chair beside Luca and sat down. She apologized, “You must have waited for a long time, right?”
“No. I just arrived here not long ago.” Luca noticed that Nina was wearing another ring on her finger. Then, she
asked, “When are the two of you planning to hold the wedding ceremony?”
“How did you know about that...” Nina trailed off.
“You're wearing your engagement ring and wedding ring on your fingers. How can I not know that?” Luca winked at
her to hint that she saw the two big rings on her fingers.
The size of the diamond ring Percy chose was big, but it was modern and stylish. It looked beautiful on Nina's long

“He gave me the ring yesterday. He told me that I'd have to wear it if he's still sitting in that position, and I agreed
to do so,” explained Nina.
Nina did not go to Brilliant today, but she followed Percy to Mallory Corporation. When he was attending the
shareholders' meeting downstairs, she was watching the live broadcast upstairs.
Nina immediately put on the ring after the result was announced.
“That's great!” exclaimed Luca. It had been so many years and Nina was finally living a happy life.
“We're planning to wait until it's warmer, and only then we'll hold the wedding ceremony. Perhaps two months later,
when the spring comes and flowers bloom. I won't feel cold even if I'm wearing the wedding dress,” Nina told Luca
about Percy and her plans.
As for the wedding ceremony, Percy was hoping that they could make it sooner. The sooner, the better. He could
not wait to see how beautiful Nina would look in her wedding dress.
However, to make it perfect, they would need time to prepare. The weather would be perfect for the wedding
ceremony in two month. It would be warm and flowers would be blooming. Nina could put on her beautiful wedding
dress and hold their wedding ceremony on a sunny day.
“Two months later sounds great. It'll be warmer then." nodded Luca.
Nina elapsed Luca's hands in hers and asked, "Would you be able to come? To be my bridesmaid."
