Sue shook her head and said, “Which of their plans would involve a psychologist?”

Nina shook her head to show that she did not know. Percy was on an overseas business trip, and she did not know what was going on.

Sue looked at Luca, who had been keeping silent. “Luca, aren’t you working at the T Corporation building? Have you heard any stories?”

“If Mr. Crawford and Mr. Doyle were really planning something, they would have done so in secret. I’m only a researcher, so what could I possibly know? I hear many other employees gossiping about the news, and that’s about it,” Luca said with a smile. She ate the last bite of the cake and felt full.

She did not want to hear her friends talk about the issue. The taste of the cake seemed to have changed, and the cream clung to her throat and made it hard to breathe.

Luca was uneasy for the rest of the party.

Until the party ended, Luke and Jason remained upstairs discussing something.

The other parents came and brought their children away. Only Kari, Teri, and Tommy were left in the living room. They were tired from the party games and were sitting on the couch watching cartoons on the television.

Luca and Nina helped Sue clean up the mess in the living room.

Even though the children were well-behaved, messing up the living room was inevitable because there were so many of them.

Sue sighed with relief and said, “Thanks to you two for helping me. If it were left up to me and the caretaker, we don’t know how long it’ll take us. Now, I finally understand why Jason suggested hosting the birthday party at an event venue. It’s so much of a hassle to clean up.”

“It’s true that party venues are more convenient, but I’m sure that the children would appreciate it better when you host their birthday party at home,” Nina smiled and said.

After they tidied up the place, Luca saw that it was getting quite late. She told Sue that she wanted to go home.
