Chapter 2185
“You didn't have to get up early. Besides, sleeping a little longer is good for you." Luca served her abowl of oats.
Nina smiled and said, "It smells so good. Would I still have gotten such a hearty and delicious breakfastif I had continued to sleep?"
Aunt Neile stood aside and smiled. "Ms. Nina, the breakfast reserved for you is still in the kitchen.Since you're awake, I'll bring it out right now."
"Thank you," thanked Nina.
Luca placed a bun on her plate using tongs and said, "That's Aunt Neile, the maid who works here. Tellher if you need anything, and try not to go out during this period of time. If you really have to go out,there are cars in the garage. You can ask Aunt Neile for the keys."
"The cars in the garage belong to Mr. Crawford, right?" Nina took a bite out of the bun and immediatelygave Luca a thumbs up. It was delicious.
"They're Mr. Crawford's, but it doesn't matter," said Luca as Mr. Crawford had mentioned that if shewanted to drive, she could drive those cars anytime. He would not mind.
However, she still had not used his cars as they were expensive. Her driving skills were subpar. If shewere to accidentally bump or hit something, she would be in trouble.
Moreover, those cars were too eye-catching. She might be surrounded by onlookers if she were todrive them out.
Luca preferred to keep a low profile.
"We can talk about that later. I guess I'll just be a coward and stay here for the next few days, but I canbe responsible for picking up and dropping off these three cute little kids." Nina winked at the threekids.
"They don't need your help. Uncle Zander is usually responsible for that. He's outside right now," saidLuca while glancing at the kids.
The kids ate breakfast a little slower as they were listening to their conversation, so Luca remindedthem, "Pick up the pace and go to school once you're done or you'll be late."
The three children hastened their movements.
Nina was amused by the children's actions.
Aunt Neile came out with breakfast and placed it on the table. "Ms. Nina, enjoy your meal."
"Aunt Neile, the breakfast you made tastes great." Nina gave Aunt Neile a thumbs up as she thoughtthat all these were prepared by Aunt Neile.
Aunt Neile shook her head and smiled. "Ms. Nina, most of these were prepared by Ms. Craw. I was justassisting her."
Nina widened her eyes and looked at Luca. "You're amazing, Luca."
"No, I'm not. Hurry up and eat," said Luca as she gave Tommy another bun. "Here, have more."
"Ms. Luca, the buns are delicious. You're amazing," Tommy complimented her as well.
Luca smiled and finished breakfast with the children.
After breakfast, the children went to school with their backpacks. Luca watched them leave beforewithdrawing her gaze to see Nina's inquisitive look.
"What's wrong?" Luca asked while putting on her jacket to get ready for work.
"You looked like a loving mother who was sending her children off to school," Nina said what she felt asBianca used to be that way.
After watching Lanie and Rainie get in the car, Bianca would usually go back to minding her ownbusiness. If she was not busy, she would even take the kids to school herself.
At that time, Nina envied the life Bianca had.
She still remembered it to this day.
Luca chuckled without answering her directly and just said, "The children are so cute. You stay here. I'llgo to work."
"Okay, be careful on the road." Nina watched Luca go out and was a little envious.
She admired professional women like Luca. Although she had her own career, she would never make itas far as Luca.
If Bianca had not invited her to Brilliant Architectural Design LLC, perhaps she would have had to relyon Percy to find a job or just be a mere employee of T Corporation.
She would not get far either way.
Moreover, she used to not have a stable job because of Percy. Now that she finally had a steady job,things like this happened. She could not even enter the company.
Plus, to stop the reporters from asking more about her, Sue had to play bad cop and stop the people atthe company from spouting nonsense to the reporters. If she found out that they had done so, theywould be fired.
Nina sighed. Percy was not the only one in her life. She also had these close friends who were worriedabout her and willing to go out of their way for her.
It seemed like the hardships she faced in the past were not enough for fate to favor her, so now, fatewas playing a joke on her again.
The more Nina thought about it, the more despondent she became.
"Ms. Nina, what are you thinking about?" After Aunt Neile finished tidying up the kitchen, she walkedout and saw Nina stare out the floor-to-ceiling window. She looked to be in low spirits.
"Nothing much." Nina came back to her senses and saw a bag in Aunt Neile's hands, so she asked,"Aunt Neile, are you going grocery shopping?"
“Yes, and by the way, Ms. Craw informed me that you can tell me if you need anything. I'll help you buyit at the supermarket," said Aunt Neile to avoid making two trips.
"I'll go with you." Nina did not have any of her personal belongings, and she could not keep on usingLuca's things.
Although she and Luca had similar body types, Luca was a little more voluptuous than her, so herclothes would not fit her very well.
Aunt Neile recognized her at first glance and said, "Ms. Nina, you're the talk of the town. If you go out,you'll be recognized. I don't mean anything else, but it's better for you to stay in the villa."
Nina was taken aback and smiled bitterly. "You're right. Celebrities like living in this area, and there aremany reporters here too. In that case, I need to trouble you to buy some clothes..."
"Okay, no problem. Just give me your size. However, there's one issue. You might not like the clothes Ipick as my taste is a little old-fashioned. I hope you don't mind," said Aunt Neile.
"I don't mind as long as I can wear it." Nina texted Aunt Neile her size and measurements.
She had intended to ask Sue for help, but since Aunt Neile was here to help, she would not need totrouble Sue anymore.
After Aunt Neile received Nina's list, she nodded and said, "I've received your message. By the way, isthere anything you want to eat for lunch?"
"Nope. In fact, you don't have to prepare lunch. I'm still very full from breakfast." Nina touched herstomach. Luca's cooking was too good!novelbin
"How can I not?" Aunt Neile shook her head. "I'll decide on what to make for lunch. Well then, I'll beheading out first. Just call me if there's anything."
"Alright, stay safe." Nina smiled and waved at her.
After Aunt Neile left, she was the only one left in the huge villa.
Nina picked up her phone and took a deep breath. She then opened a website and looked at theeyecatching headlines, only to see that they were all related to her.
