Chapter 1362 She Changed Her Opinion About Luca

Nina looked at her forearm and began to smile. It was red and hurt a lot, but she did not cry.

The pain on her arm was nothing compared to the agony and depression that she had stored in her heart for the past few years. In fact, it made her feel alive.

The waitress opened the door to the private room and noticed that Nina was still sitting there. She asked, "Excuse me, Miss, may I take your order?"

Nina did not stand up. She spoke to the waitress without turning around. "Yes. Please givethe lunch set."

"Alright, coming right up," the waitress replied and closed the door. The noble woman had left earlier and paid the bill. She thought that the other woman would leave too, but instead, the woman ordered something to eat.

Nina remained motionless while sitting on the chair. When the waitress cinto the room again with her food, she pointed at the mess on the floor. "I accidentally dropped this earlier. Please clean it up. If the cup is broken, add it to my bill, and I'll pay for it later."

The waitress looked at the mess on the floor and noticed that Nina's arm was red. She thought that it was not an accident.

In her mind, she had already made up a fantastical story. The young woman sitting in front of her must be the

mistress of the noble woman's husband. That made the waitress look at Nina with contempt.

However, the waitress did not say anything because she was still on the job. Instead, she nodded and said, "Alright, I'll clean it up later. Enjoy your meal, Miss."

The waitress left the room and closed the door after that.

Nina looked at the food in front of her and picked up a fork. She ate the food in big bites, seemingly unperturbed by the pain in her arm.

Even though she did not feel hungry at all, she finished half of the plate. Then, she took the napkin and elegantly cleaned her mouth.

While she ate, the waitress did not cinto the room to disturb her.

Nina stood up and looked at the teacup on the floor. It was chipped, like her heart.

She left the room and went to pay at the counter.

The cashier noticed that Nina's arm was scalded and said," Miss, you ought to put sointment on your arm.

Otherwise, it might leave a scar."

"I'm fine." Nina left the restaurant after paying her bill.

She sighed to herself. Even though the restaurant staff did not say anything, she could notice that their reactions toward her were different from before.

'Looks like I can't eat here anymore,' she thought. 'It's a pity

though. The food here is quite nice.'

Back at the company, Nina tried to cover the injury on her arm, but Sue happened to notice it. She grabbed Nina's arm and asked her, "Didn't you say that you went on a date?

What happened to your arm? It's so red. Were you scalded?"

"Mm, it was an accident," Nina pulled her arm away and said softly. She did not feel happy that her friend was concerned about her, but instead, she felt as though nothing could change her mood, and she was nothing but a lingering phantom.

She knew that Sue thought that she went on a date with Percy, and she did not offer to explain herself.

"You're too careless... Was it you or Percy?" Sue felt sorry for Nina. The injury looked painful.

"It's my fault," Nina said.

Sue shook her head. "You're so bad at lying, Nina. You can't possibly hurt yourself on this part of your body. Was Percy violent to you?"

Sue hated men who deliberately injured women. Thinking that Percy might be the one who caused Nina's injury, Sue wanted to get even with him.

Nina could see that Sue was about to and hunt down Percy. She shook her head and said, "It's the waitress. She accidentally spilled the milk tea when she was bringing it over.”

"Really?" Sue asked, still feeling suspicious. She thought that

Nina was covering up for Percy.

"I'm telling you the truth. I haven't washed my arm yet, and you can smell the tea if you cclose," Nina said as she lifted her arm.

"Nah, it's fine. You didn't have to cover up for the waitress though," Sue said as she took a close look at Nina's arm. It was very red, and it would definitely leave a scar. She needed to get Nina shigh- quality ointment.

"I'm worried that you'd pick a fight with the waitress," Nina said with a sigh. "It's not too serious, and I don't want any trouble."

"You're too kind, Nina. You can't just let it go when the injury looks so serious," Sue said. "You'll have to find sointment for your arm. See, blisters are forming already."

Nina did not seem to mind the blisters. "It's fine. If it's too painful, I'll wash it with cold water."

"That won't do. It'll be a pity if you have scars on your forearm, and you won't be able to hide them in warm weather. Right, I know a medical researcher, and she might have something for you. Letask her." Sue suddenly remembered Luca.

Jason had told her that Luca was a genius medicine maker. She was able to produce her own herbal concoctions that could not be found in the market.

"You don't have to trouble anyone," Nina said. She was not concerned about her arm.

"I'll go and contact her," Sue said insistently while sending a message to Luca.

Her opinion of Luca had changed completely since the dinner. She did not hesitate to ask her for help.

At the moment, Luca was resting in her office. When she read Sue's message, she immediately replied: [I have something for scalds. I'll give it to you after work.]

Sue received Luca's message. In her reply, she invited Luca for dinner. Then, she said to Nina, "Come to my house for dinner tonight, Nina. My friend has just created an ointment that's good for treating

scalds. She'll be coming over after work."

Nina wanted to refuse, but after thinking that she would be halone with Percy, she changed her mind. "Alright, thank you," she said.

Sue grinned brilliantly. "Don't be a stranger, aren't we friends? n

Nina felt a pang of envy when she saw Sue's smile. Ever since Sue decided that she would marry Jason, she had never stopped smiling.

After Luca went off work, she first went to her apartment to take the ointment that she had concocted, then caught a cab and went to Jason's house.

She could not refuse Sue's invitation.

At Jason's house, Sue opened the door and saw Luca standing outside. She smiled and said, "You're here, Luca. Please cin."

Luca smiled; Sue's smile was contagious. She walked in and said, "I was in a hurry, so I didn't prepare any gifts for you."

"Don't be a stranger, Luca. You don't have to bring anything," Sue said enthusiastically as she took Luca's arm and led her into the living room.
