Percy paused for a moment and continued, "What I'm trying to say is to let Nina stay over at your place for the time being."

Earlier, he received a call from the maid at the villa telling him that there were reporters outside the villa and she could not chase them away as they insisted on staying until they saw Nina.

He had to stay in the office to settle this issue and could not return, but he could not do anything about this either as it involved Nina.

"About this..." Luca felt troubled. "Are there many reporters at your villa? Why not have Nina stay at the previous apartment?"

"She needs company now. That's why I thought of this arrangement. Actually, she already knows about what's going on between you and Luke, so you don't have to worry too much about it," said Percy.

Luca was speechless and wondered how Percy knew that she was staying together with Luke.

However, when she thought about the relationship Percy and Luke shared, it was possible that Luke had told Percy about it.

Indeed, both Luca and Luke were innocent. Despite staying in the same house, they had never done anything intimate and had never crossed the line.

However, after listening to what Percy said, it sounded like she and Luke shared some sort of deep relationship.

As Luca listened, she became helpless.

"I'm just staying together with Luke. That's all," she emphasized. "We're like housemates."

"I know. That's why I'm asking you to look after Nina," Percy replied to her, but he was also teasing Luke inwardly. 'It seems that he still hasn't won over Luca.'

Luca was at a loss for words as she felt that Percy had a point, but before that.

She felt that something was off. Even so, she had no choice but to agree. "Alright, no problem."

"Thanks. After this issue is over, I'll treat you to a meal." Percy seldom asked for favors from a woman, but when things were related to Nina, he was willing to beg everyone all for Nina's sake.

"You don't have to treat me to a meal. Just treat Nina well," said Luca. She did not wish for others to repay her. All she wanted was for them to treat their beloved ones well.
