Nina chose an Italian restaurant nearby, added some dishes to her cart, and showed it to Luca.

Luca added another dish.

Nina saw it and said, "How is this enough? I'm treating you to this meal, so please order a few more dishes."

"I'll leave the decision to you," Luca said.

Nina ordered several dishes before she submitted the order. "I always eat alone. Now that you're with me, I finally have the opportunity to eat more dishes."

"You ordered so many. I doubt we can finish everything," Luca said. The dishes they ordered were enough for three or four adults.

"What does that matter? I'm overjoyed that we're sharing a meal," Nina said. Her phone rang and she pressed to answer. "Hello, who is it?"

"Ms. Langdon, I'm calling from your property management. There's a man at the door who claims to be your brother. We dare not let him go in without your consent. He has been wandering here. Can you kindly deal with it?" the man on the other end of the call said.

"Don't let him in." Nina's mood turned sour as soon as she heard that Jean was loitering around her residence.

"We didn't let him in but he's making a fuss at the gate. It's not a pleasant sight. Are you his sister? Why don't you come out here and deal with him?" the man suggested. He felt a headache coming when he saw how insistent Jean was on staying in the area.

"He doesn't want to leave, right? Give him an ultimatum. If he doesn't leave, have the police take him away." Nina was ruthless. Although the property belonged to Percy, it was the only place that made her feel safe. She was not planning to move just yet.

She would never let Jean in to ruin her peace.

"Isn't he your brother? Would that be a good idea?" the man said.

"If he comes in, I'll make a complaint. For the rest of the matters, you can decide for yourself." Nina finished speaking and hung up the phone.
