The three of them arrived downstairs.

Luke and Luca were at the lobby, waiting for them.

The moment they appeared, Luca nodded before turning around and walking out of the hotel entrance.

Luke walked toward Marcos and Kastov. He was not surprised to see that only Marcos and Kastov came. He immediately said, "Let's go. I have a good bottle of red wine waiting for us at home."

He immediately felt more lax being around Marcos now that Ethan wasn't around.

The two of them no longer had a reserved partnership, they treated each other like friends instead. They were more at ease with each other now.

They left the hotel together.

Jason, Marcos, and Kastov got into Lliam's car. After all, Marcos were not silly enough to enter the same car as Luke and Luca. He would just be a third wheel.

He took the initiative to sit in the passenger seat, leaving the back seat for the two of them.

Luke's car was ahead of them, and Lliam followed behind.

An hour later, they arrived at Luke's villa.

When Aunt Neile heard the noises coming from the garden, she brought out the wine and finger foods she had prepared. Then, she stood at the foyer, waiting for them to come in.

Luke and Luca were the first to come in.

Aunt Neile greeted them politely, "Welcome home, Mr. Crawford, Ms. Craw."

"We have two guests," said Luke, reminding Aunt Neile. Jason had left after dropping them off.

He had some other work to attend to.

"Okay, sir," nodded Aunt Neile, taking out two pairs of disposable men's slippers out of the shoe cabinet.

While Luca did not mention the gender of her guests, she nevertheless told Aunt Neile to prepare wine. Therefore, judging from her past experience, she reckoned that the guests Luke were bringing home were most likely men.
