Luca understood the meaning in Luke's eyes. Even though she did not agree, she continued to grill the meat without saying much.

Vivian also witnessed the scene. Although unsure of what was happening, she felt a bit worried. Hence, she asked in a soft voice, "Luca, are they okay?"

"It's nothing, just a conversation between a mother and son." Luca shook her head, refraining from gossiping to Vivian about Louis and Susan.

Vivian was not one to pry. The reason she asked was because she could not shake off her concern seeing that both of their expressions were not quite right.

When Luca said that, she did not press further. She simply nodded and passed over her already-cooked food to Luca. "I can't finish all this. Could you help me with some?"

She noticed Luca either passed the cooked food to Luke or the kids, hardly eating anything herself.

Luca accepted it and replied, "Thank you. You're really good at grilling."

Vivian modestly responded, "During the university's anniversary celebration a few days ago, the university allowed us to set up stalls on campus to sell snacks or small toys. I sold barbecued food with a few friends. They were the ones who taught me how to grill."

Luca nodded and took a bite. The meat was succulent and perfectly grilled. Impressed, she gave Vivian a thumbs-up. "Vivian, you're really good at this. It's good."

"Really? You guys should try it too." Vivian noticed that even though everyone was grilling on their own, they still shared with the men opposite them. Thus, she generously offered her food to them. "Thank you, Ms. Vivian." Rain took it and expressed her gratitude.

"Just call me Vivian," replied Vivian shyly. She was not some aristocrat in A City now, just an ordinary person.

Rain understood what she meant and nodded. "Thank you, Vivian."

Nina, Scarlett, and Sue also took a few pieces, thanking Vivian like Rain did.

Gordan, who was at another table, overheard their conversation. His eyes darkened, especially when Vivian spoke. The cunning gleam in his eyes grew even deeper.
