Crawford Manor would be like a battlefield if Allison was there. The old master would definitely be willing to come over.

"No problem,” replied Luca. There was another guest room upstairs. It was just that there was no elevator in the villa. It might be slightly difficult for the old master to climb the stairs.

“Alright, I'll bring them over first," said Luke.

“Okay.” Luca nodded and followed him downstairs. After she watched them leave, she sat on the sofa.

After Luke took the kids away, Luca felt an emptiness in her heart.

Luca looked around the living room, only to realize that after she moved here, there had never been a quiet moment. She could hear the noises of the kids playing around happily.

She could not get used to the sudden silence.

Luca picked up her phone and looked at her contacts.

Sue's name showed up. Luca reckoned that she was probably busy preparing for the new year with Jason.

Luca saw Nina's phone number and made a call.

The phone rang twice, and it was put through. Nina greeted, "Good afternoon, Luca.”

“Good afternoon. Have you eaten lunch?” Luca crossed her legs on the sofa. No one was here, so she did not have to maintain her image. Besides, it was comfortable to sit like this.

"Yes. Why do you have free time to look for me? Aren't you busy preparing for the new year?" Nina asked happily.

“There's nothing much to prepare. You know I've been living abroad previously. These traditional festivals aren't that important to me." Luca was being ironic.

Then, she said, "I was wondering if you were available. Perhaps we can look for a restaurant, enjoy a relaxing afternoon tea together, and have a chat?”

Nina was startled for a moment, then she replied helplessly, “Luca, I'm sorry. I'm overseas now. I can't accompany you."

"Did you go on a vacation with Mr. Mallory?" Luca was surprised. She had been busy for the past few days and had not been paying attention to what was going on with Nina.
