“Of course, you're welcome. Have a seat. Do you want tea or juice?" Luca asked. She knew that Nina had trouble sleeping, so she forwent coffee as an option because it was already late in the afternoon.

"I'll have juice," said Nina.

"Alright, one moment. I'll go to the kitchen to see if there are any snacks I can bring you." Luca nodded and walked into the kitchen. She had the maid squeeze some juice, while she brought out some snacks to the living room and placed them in front of Nina.

"The juice will be done in a bit. Why don't you try the snacks first?" she said.

"Sure, I haven't had lunch yet, so I'm a bit hungry." Nina picked up a piece and helped herself.

"Why didn't you have lunch?" Luca asked out of curiosity.

Nina swallowed a mouthful of the snacks before taking her time to explain, "I planned to go to Mr. Louis' house directly so that we could make it for the luncheon, but Percy had an emergency meeting, so we stopped by the Mallory family's place. The meeting went on for a long time, and it lasted until the afternoon, so we rushed over here after the meeting. We thought that we could at least have some dessert, but you weren't there, so I came here without eating anything."

"I'll go get you some more." Luca stood up to get her more snacks.

"No need, this is enough." Nina was embarrassed as she came here to chat with Luca and not to freeload on their food.

"This biscuit has a pretty strong coconut aroma. Isn't this your favorite flavor?" Luca said with a smile and walked into the kitchen to get her more biscuits.

Nina froze as she stared at the snacks on the table.

There was a brand of biscuits that she liked a lot, and it was the coconut-flavored biscuits, which were her favorite.
