Chapter 1706 It Did Not Win Her Heart As He Had Hoped

[You're not feeling well? What's wrong?] Sue asked caringly.

[It's nothing. I just want to take a rest for a day or two. You don't have to worry about it. If there's any important work that needs my attention, I'll head to the office to handle it.] Nina replied. She had always asked for leave too when she was together with Percy.

However, she had never delayed her work at the company because of her absence.

Sue replied: [Alright. Take good care of yourself. You can come over to my place if you're struggling with anything. I can take care of you.]

[Don't worry. I've asked Luca to come here to keep me company.] Nina replied. She had always been sick and weak in Sue's impression.

Still, she used to be healthy and was nothing like this now. Now, she had to take pills to make her sleep. She would often catch a cold if she was unlucky.

The reason why she ended up like this today was that she met the two brothers of the Mallory family.

Nina pondered and picked up the concealer to try and cover the hickeys on her neck.

She thought of Percy, then Pierre came into her mind again. She wondered if she had done anything to offend the Mallory family in her past life, which was causing her to suffer so much in this life.

Luca packed a few clothes and hailed a ride to Nina's apartment.

Nina had informed the guards at the entrance in advance, so everything went smoothly when Luca came in. When she reached the door, she knocked on the door and said, “Nina, I'm here."

Nina heard her voice. She quickly checked herself in the mirror a few times to make sure the hickeys that were left on her neck were concealed. Then, she went to open the door.

"Luca, come in!" Nina invited her to come in. She thought that Percy would not do anything to her if Luca was here.

Although she was not disgusted by him, Percy had taken advantage of her, after all. She refused to let this happen again.

It was uncertain and confusing...
