Female Novel
Chapter 3046
"That'll be great!" Nina's eyes lit up when she heard about the grilled lobster.
“I know that's your favorite," Luca said smilingly.
“We haven't known each other that long, but you already know me so well. It's like we're sisters." Nina
put her arm around Luca's shoulder and smiled.
“I can assure you that you're not sisters," said Luke with a gloomy face while he walked upstairs.
His voice startled Nina. She turned to look at him while he stared back at the both of them with
resentful eyes.
“Mr. Crawford, you almost scared me to death, speaking out of nowhere like that." Nina looked upset.
“It's because you were too engrossed in your conversation." After speaking to Nina, Luke turned to
Luca and asked, “Aunt Neile asked if you want anything else other than lobster tonight."
“What do you want for dinner?" Luca asked Nina. Lobster alone was not enough, so they had to think
of other dishes to have too.
Luke got jealous when he saw her ask Nina instead of him. She had asked him in the car just now.
Why did she not ask him now?
Nina noticed Luke's expression and said, “Anything goes. I'm fine with whatever, but I want you to cook
for me."
“I'll go downstairs and prepare, then," said Luca while standing up.
“There's no need to rush. It's still early. I'll help you out later so that I can learn your secrets." Nina
tugged at her arm and looked at Luke.
As she expected, the man looked even more upset.
Nina was having fun teasing him. If she were a guy, Luke would have thrown her out by now since she
was occupying Luca.
“Oh, you're right. How silly of me." Luca smiled at Nina before turning to Luke and asking, “What do
you want for dinner?"
Luke was even more jealous now. Why was he always second place when Nina was around?
He would let it go before Luca admitted her identity because he feared that Nina would find out.
Since she had not admitted who she was, Nina was still the priority.
Luke kept his jealousy to himself, thinking that one day it would get better.
Then, he said, “If you're cooking, I'll eat anything you make."
Nina gasped, causing the two of them to look at her.
"What is it?" Luca asked.
Nina chuckled. "I didn't think that Mr. Crawford would say such things. Amazing."
Luke could sense Nina's mockery. How childish. Then, Luke said to Luca, "I have a meeting to attend."
"Okay." Luca nodded before standing up. "Nina, let's go downstairs."
"What's wrong? Why do we need to go downstairs?" Nina was confused.
"Mr. Crawford said he has to work. I think he's going to be joining an international conference call, so
it's best that we don't disturb him," said Luca as being upstairs would disturb Luke.
"You're so considerate of him." Nina smiled and shook her head. She stood up, not forgetting to take
her book with her.
Luca noticed the book in her hands and asked, "Why are you reading this kind of book all of a
sudden?"
"The psychology book? I'll tell you later." Nina went downstairs and greeted the children before takingnovelbin
Luca to the pavilion in the front yard.
After sitting down, she explained, " I'm sure you know that I was in a bad place before."
"Yes, I do." Luca nodded. Percy was quite worried because of her poor mental health.
Not only did he find the best psychiatrist for her, but he even took time out to listen to psychological
talks with her. He was afraid that something bad might happen to her.
"How should I put it? I know what these people are going through because I've been through them
myself. They tend to selectively ignore their problems and blame them on others. Now that I've
recovered, I want to learn more so that I can help people in need."
Nina said while she flipped to the last page she read.
"Is it because of Mr. Mallory's mother?" Luca asked. She knew Nina well. She would not voluntarily
study a certain topic for no reason.
Nina was not a fan of reading.
She was never the academic type, even when she was a student, let alone after she started working.
Nina was always the spontaneous type.
"You caught me. I want to understand what she's going through so that I can maybe help her." Nina
nodded and smiled embarrassedly.
Perhaps Nina and Pierre were the cause of Karen's unstable emotions.
Whatever the reason may be, there was undoubtedly something wrong with Karen's emotions. If she
did not seek help soon, the problem might get even worse in the future.
Karen needed a professional psychiatrist.
Nina was studying all of this so that she could get closer to her. She wanted to communicate with her
without Karen always getting irritated so easily.
"She needs help from a psychiatrist, not you. Maybe you should tell Mr. Mallory about this." Luca gave
her some advice.
Some people just liked getting themselves into dead ends. After Allison's face was ruined, Luke found
her a psychiatrist, but she refused. In the end, it got worse.
Luca did not know whether it was the psychiatrist's problem or Allison's rejection of therapy.
In the end, Luke took her to a different plastic surgery clinic. After the procedure, she was in a much
better state.
“He knows what's going on too, but his mother is just stubborn. We don't have any other choice." Nina
sighed. "I'll go make some tea. What tea do you want?"
"No, I'll go. Do you have any preference?" Luca shook her head and stood up.
"I'm fine with anything," said Nina.
"Read your book. I'll go get a book too. I'll bring some snacks over after I brew the tea," said Luca.
Good thing the weather was nice. The light breeze made it the perfect day to have some tea and read
a book outside.
"Get me anything," said Nina.
Luca walked into the kitchen and made a pot of jasmine tea. Then, she took out some snacks and
asked Aunt Neile to send them over to the front yard. Meanwhile, she went upstairs to get a
pharmacology book.
After walking out of the study, she passed by Luke's room and saw that he was focusing on the
computer screen. He was speaking fluently in a foreign language.
She tried to tread lightly so as to not disrupt his work.
When she got to the front yard, she sat on the other stool and started reading with Nina.
