[I'll be right back.] After Luca replied to his message, she lifted her head and smiled at Amur. "I'm going back now. Take care of yourself."

"Okay." Amur nodded.

Luca did not let Amur escort her to the lobby, so he walked her to the door instead. As he watched her step into the elevator and heard the doors slowly close, he closed the door.

Mrs. Selley walked out carrying a bag of garbage. She glanced at Amur as though she wanted to ask him something. However, she sighed and shook her head at the thought of what he had said before.

Mrs. Selley gave her relative's daughter a call after Amur rejected her.

The girl could not help but burst into tears after she heard what Mrs. Selley said on the phone.

Mrs. Selley felt sorry for bearing bad news. Thus, she spent some time comforting her before reluctantly ending the call.

She ran into Amur when she was about to take out the trash.

Amur did not bother to greet her and closed the door right away.

Mrs. Selley could not help but mutter to herself, "That was rude."

She headed to the elevator and turned around to glance at the apartment door. Then, she mumbled to herself in a regretful tone, "He's good-looking. Now I know why she can't stop thinking about him. It's a shame that such a handsome man is already taken."

Luca headed downstairs and found Warren waiting in the car.

Even though it was springtime, it was chilly at night. Luca got into the car. The car heater warmed her up.

"Ms. Craw, would you like to go home now?" asked Warren as he turned up the heat in the car.

"Yes. Let's go." Luca nodded, thinking that her children would be asleep by the time she returned to the villa.

As she watched the scenery outside the window pass by, Luca could not help but secretly heave a sigh. Time was not something that could be wasted.

Luca wanted to spend more time with her children, but it seemed like something would always take up all her time.
