Chapter 1698

"I'm sorry, Luca. I shouldn't have doubted you," Nina said apologetically. If Bianca were not already in the picture, she thought it would be great if Luca and Luke got together.

However, as a friend of Bianca's, she could not stand watching Luke cheat on her.

Luca patted her shoulder and said, "It's alright. I understand."

Nina let go of her and reminded her sincerely, "Bianca is alone out there now. I don't know how she's doing, so I'm always concerned with Luke's private life."

Luca listened to her concern and smiled bitterly. "I'm the one who didn't try my best. If I had stayed away from Mr. Crawford from the very beginning, you wouldn't have misunderstood us."

"I'm just too sensitive. After all those things I've gone through, I rarely believe in men anymore. That's why I doubted you." Nina let out a sigh and realized her problem.

Even though Luke was powerful and influential, there was no way he could control what Bianca did.

Luke sent her abroad, but she could have returned anytime if she wanted to. She would not have waited until now.

Hence, that was probably what Luke meant by saying that there were many things she did not know about.

Luca felt a little sorry for Nina when she saw Nina defending her without knowing it.

She wanted to tell her everything too, but if she told Nina, that would mean she was dragging Nina into this. This was way too complicated for her. Luca refused to see her best friend risk her life for her.

"Alright. Enough of that. Would you like to have some fruits?" Luca asked.

Nina shook her head. Even though Luke had suddenly shown up, it did not affect her appetite. After all, the soup base that Luca made tasted good, and the meatballs and vegetables were delicious. She ate a lot.

"I'm full after eating the hotpot. I can't eat anything now." She touched her belly. It was rare to see her stomach bloated.

Luca smiled as she looked at Nina's slightly bloated stomach. She said, "Is it really that good?'

"It's so good. The last time I ate such a good hotpot was made by Bea too. I didn't expect you to be so good at making hotpot too. That's great. I ate too much without knowing it." Nina recalled the taste of the hotpot she had just now. It tasted almost like the hotpot soup base that Bianca made.

Unfortunately, it had been so long. She could only vaguely remember that it tasted almost the same, but she could not differentiate if there was a difference and what the difference was.

Luca smiled. "You'll grow fatter if I make you eat my cooking every day."

Nina was too skinny, and she did not look healthy at all. She looked weak and lacked nutrients. Luca still preferred the chubby version of her back then.

"Then I shouldn't be eating the meals that you prepare every day. It's easy to get fat but it's harder to slim down. Everyone wants to be slim nowadays. It'll be hard for me to slim down if I get fat again."

"You look better when you're a little chubby." Luca looked at Nina's thin face. Her face would be pale white if she had no makeup on.

"Alright, alright. You haven't done the dishes, right? Let me do them. Hurry up and get back to work." Nina listened to her. Bianca had said that to her before.

She did not know why Bianca would come into her mind whenever she was talking to Luca. Perhaps it was the way they talked, that was why she could not stop thinking about her.

Nina took the job of washing the dishes and let Luca continue with her work.

Luca looked at her heading to the kitchen from behind. She smiled and shook her head. Then, she entered the bedroom and continued to translate the remaining documents.

The three documents remaining did not have as many pages as the previous one. It only took her three hours to finish translating the rest of the documents. After she completed her job, she checked through her work again to make sure there was no mistake. Then, she sent it to Luke.

Not long after that, she received a reply email from Luke's work email.

He sent her an address right away.

Luca looked at the address. It was the address of a shopping mall nearby.

She did not know why Luke would send her the address. She sent a message to him to ask about it.

Luke replied, "You have to go there on your own today."

He did not mention what he wanted her to do. Luca was confused about what his plans were. She could only listen to his orders and follow them.

She put on something that she could wear outside. She walked out of the bedroom and saw that Nina was lying on the couch, taking a nap.

The TV was still switched on, and the volume was low. Luca shook her head as she looked at the woman who was fast asleep. It was late. If Nina continued to sleep, she probably would not be able to sleep tonight.

Therefore, Luca walked toward her and shook her. "Nina, Nina..."

Nina opened her eyes slowly. She woke up and looked at Luca with her groggy eyes. "Luca, what's the matter?"

"It's late. If you continue to sleep, you won't be able to fall asleep tonight. Get up. Come with me," Luca said gently. She lowered her voice when she saw Nina in a daze after waking up.

Nina nodded her head and sat up. She picked up her phone and glanced at it. "I've been sleeping for so long?"

"It's normal to feel sleepy after filling your stomach," said Luca. She would take a nap too if she was allowed to.

"I'm not sleepy. I'm messing up my sleeping schedule like this." Nina opened her Instagram and saw the message that Sue sent to her. After she replied to her, she turned to look at Luca. "Luca, are you asking me to go out with you?"

"Yes. Mr. Crawford assigned me a task. He told me to head to the mall nearby. Let's go together?" Luca said. She wanted Nina to hang out with her.

"Sure," said Nina. She used her fingers as a comb and ran her fingers through her hair to tidy up her messy long hair. Then, she asked with confusion, "By the way, do you have any idea why Luke asked you to go to the shopping mall?"

"I'm not sure about that." Luca was changing her shoes. She wanted to get something out of him, but he refused to talk. Hence, she had no choice but to make a guess, "He probably booked something and is asking me to collect it."

Nina frowned and said with some confusion, "He's good at telling people what to do, huh? Previously, you were just a research professor working in a lab. Now, you're a part-time translator. This time, he wants you to run errands for him?"

"It's just a guess. Let's go and take a look." Luca finished changing her shoes, then she left arm in arm with Nina.

They chose to walk because the shopping mall was just nearby. 15 minutes later, Luca walked into the shop according to the address she was given.

It was a store selling luxury goods.

Luca said to the shop assistant at the entrance, "Hello, I'm—"

Before she managed to finish her sentence, the shop assistant said passionately, "Hello, you must be Ms. Craw. Please come in."

Luca was startled at once. She exchanged glances with Nina.

Nina had no idea what was happening too. She held Luca's hand and said, "Let's go inside and take a look."

Luca nodded and walked into the store together with her. A few shop assistants suddenly surrounded them.
