Chapter 1459 She Was Afraid

The mansion belonged to Percy, and she was only an outsider. Once their illicit relationship was over, what right did she have to remain there?

Moreover, she was emotionally unstable now. She was afraid that she might confront Percy if she went back, and she would only be humiliating herself.

Luca knew the reasons why Nina was unwilling to go back. She nodded and said, "Alright, let's go together. I don't think I have the courage to face that family myself."

Nina looked at her, feeling slightly confused. "It's not like you wanted it to happen. To be fair to you, you didn't kill the security guard. You have nothing to be guilty about."

Luca laughed dryly. There were so many things that Nina did not know...

"Yes, I didn't kill the security guard, but the thief wouldn't have gotten into my apartment if I had better locks," she said while inputting the address into the navigation app.

"Nobody wanted that to happen," Nina said.

Luca nodded, started the car, and drove toward the security guard's house.

It had been a few years since she last took the wheel, so she drove very slowly. Nina did not rush her.

Their minds were occupied with different things, so neither said anything throughout the drive.

Half an hour later, Luca parked the car at the side of the road. According to the navigation app, the security guard's house was at the end of the narrow alley.

"Are we here?" Nina asked.
