Mo placed two cups of coffee and coffee creamer from the tray in front of both of them before leaving.

After the door closed, Luca took a sip of her coffee before asking cautiously, “It seems like something is bothering you. Did you not get enough sleep last night?"

"Yeah." Nina did not try to hide it as she told her about Karen staying over at Percy's place.

Luca frowned. "She didn't make things difficult for you, did she?"

"No, I've done my homework. She has to find excuses if she wants to make things difficult for me, but..." Nina paused as she added creamer to the bitter coffee and took a sip. "But Old Master Mallory sent a message this morning telling Percy to bring me to Mallory Manor for dinner."

Although she was married to Percy, she did not think she was associated with Mallory Manor in any way.

Besides, none of them gave their blessings to her marriage with Percy.

Luca silently held the coffee in her hand for a few seconds before setting it down on the table. "Do you know why the old master did that?"

"Percy doesn't know, and neither do I." Nina shook her head. So what if she was Old Master Crawford's god-granddaughter?

The Mallory family only stopped using those little tricks on her for the sake of the Crawford family.

That did not mean that the Mallory family accepted her.

"No matter what, just be yourself. Percy is always on your side, so he won't let them hurt you." Luca knew what she was worrying about, so she could only provide her comfort.

In the end, Nina still had to face it on her own.

After marrying Percy, she had to face the Mallory family at some point in her life.

"I know he'll be on my side." Nina nodded. Percy was not the type to listen to his elders. He may take some of their advice, but most of the time, he stood his ground.

"You have nothing to worry about, then. The worst that could happen is them expressing their disapproval of your marriage to Percy, but your marriage has been registered. With the law protecting you, they can't do anything about it. Perhaps Old Master Mallory wants to reconcile with Percy this time. In that case, you'll be the key to their reconciliation." Luca smiled.

Nina nodded in agreement.
