Chapter 989 He Could Not Be Back On Time

After they were done with groceries, Bianca drove Nina home. She planned to cook, so she parked the car in the villa.

Nina got out of the car and stared at the Maserati in a daze.

"Nina, what's the matter?" Bianca also noticed the Maserati, which she knew was not Nina's car.

Nina had a complicated look on her face. "He's here."

"Who?" Bianca was puzzled and glanced at the numbers on the license plate. The license plate ended with three eights. The person who owned the car was well to do. Bianca immediately knew who the car belonged to.

Percy Mallory.

"Master Percy of the Mallory family." Nina retracted her gaze. Percy had not called her for a while. She thought that he had gotten bored with her and did not expect him to appear out of the blue.

Percy treated her place like a hotel. He came and left a s he pleased.

Bianca frowned, grabbed the groceries, and held Nina's hand. "Don't be afraid, I'll go in with you."

Nina smiled gratefully at Bianca. She was not afraid, but considering her recent encounter with Pierre, she did not want to deal with Percy.

The brothers looked similar, and she would think of Pierre when she saw him.

The two went into the living room and saw Percy sitting on the sofa. He had opened a bottle of red wine and was tasting it alone.

"Where did you go?" Percy raised her eyebrows when he saw Bianca next to Nina.

'When did she get hurt?' He noticed at first glance that her forehead was bandaged. He felt inexplicably unhappy.

"I just came back from the hospital." Nina was expressionless as she turned to Bianca and said, "Bea, please put the groceries in the refrigerator. I'll cook for myself later."

Bianca was stunned. She wanted to say something so she could stay with Nina a little longer.
