As Luca heaved a sigh, Lliam had already parked the car at the entrance of Blue Coast Restaurant.

After Luke and Luca got out of the car, they were led into a private room by the waitress at the entrance, where Percy and Nina were already waiting for them.

"Sorry for being late," Luke said to Percy. When they returned, they encountered some traffic, so they were ten minutes later than the agreed time.

"Mr. Crawford is a busy man. I'm used to it." A hint of mischief flashed across Percy's eyes as he teased Luke.

Nina wore a helpless smile and replied, "It's okay. Actually, we just arrived."

"I didn't expect traffic on the way back, sorry," apologized Luca. They all valued punctuality. That was why being late required an apology.

"Dr. Craw, it's okay," replied Percy. He could joke with Luke but not with Luca.

After all, Luca was now arguably the most capable among them.

Most importantly, Luca was Nina's good friend.

There was a saying, a man should never offend his girlfriend's or wife's best friend. Otherwise, he would experience what despair truly meant.

Even though Luca had another identity, one day, she would inevitably return to her true identity as Bianca. He could not afford to offend her.

Besides, Luca had indeed helped Nina a lot.

Luca was slightly surprised. Why was Percy so polite to her?

However, when thinking about their relationship dynamics, she instantly understood and returned a smile.

Luke had nothing to say about Percy's differential treatment. He just helped Luca pull out the chair and gently said, "Have a seat."

"Okay.” Luca sat down. With Luke's help, she scooted forward slightly.

Luke then sat beside her.
