The room was getting hotter and hotter, and the two were about to sink into one another when they heard a knock on the door. Luca broke away from Luke's embrace as if she had come to her senses.

"Mr. Crawford, someone's at the door." Luca's face was scarlet red when she turned to look at Luke, who seemed cross.

He had a look of discontent on his face.

“I heard.” Luke could not wait to chase away the person at the door who interrupted them. “Who is it?"

“Mr. Crawford, Mr. Mallory is here. Would you like to meet him?” Aunt Neile's voice came from outside. Luca listened carefully and could hear the anxiousness in her voice.

She reckoned that it was because she heard Luke's annoyed tone.

The man was usually calm and steady, but when he could not get what he wanted, he simply could not hide it. Luca thought that this side of Luke was funny and kind of adorable at the same time.

"What's he here for?” Luke asked. Ultimately, Percy was the one who interrupted his time with Luca, not Aunt Neile.

Now that he was married, was he so overly happy that he thought he could come and disturb others as he pleased?

"I... I don't know, Mr. Mallory said you didn't pick up your phone, so he sent me up to inform you..." Aunt Neile trembled as she relayed Percy's words.

Percy and Luke were best friends, so when he rang the bell, Aunt Neile let him in without a second thought. However, Luke sounded upset from the other side of the door.

That was when Aunt Neile knew that she had interrupted something.

"Tell him to wait." Luke's tone was still stiff.

“Okay.” After Aunt Neile replied, there was no sound at the door.
