Luca nodded in understanding and came downstairs with him.

Nina was not there.

She could not help but ask curiously, "Aunt Neile, is Nina not coming back for dinner tonight?"

Aunt Neile replied as she served the dishes, "Mrs. Mallory just called me. She said that she received an unexpected guest at the company, so she won't be coming back for dinner. She told us not to wait for her."

Luca did not think much about it, but Luke said, "Percy is back."

"Huh? Mr. Mallory is back?" Luca was surprised. "How do you know?"

"I guessed. You'll see later. Nina probably will come back tonight to pack her things and move out," replied Luke.

It was more like a calculated guess rather than information leaked by Percy himself.

However, Percy had made it clear that he wanted to surprise Nina, so he asked Luke not to tell Luca to avoid any accidental slip-ups.

Therefore, Luke knew when Percy would return, but Nina did not.

Luca did not know either because Luke had agreed to keep it a secret as per Percy's request...

"Well, that's good too. It saves Nina from thinking about him in her dreams. She's been eagerly awaiting the return of her loved one." Luca chuckled. Nina was shy, so Luca would not joke like this in her presence.

However, Nina was not here now. Luca was happy at the thought of the couple's reunion, so she could not help but make the joke.

Luke shook his head with a smile on his face.

Tommy asked curiously, "Ms. Luca, what does eagerly awaiting the return of her loved one mean?"
