"That'll be great!" Nina's eyes lit up when she heard about the grilled lobster.

“I know that's your favorite," Luca said smilingly.

“We haven't known each other that long, but you already know me so well. It's like we're sisters." Nina put her arm around Luca's shoulder and smiled.

“I can assure you that you're not sisters," said Luke with a gloomy face while he walked upstairs.

His voice startled Nina. She turned to look at him while he stared back at the both of them with resentful eyes.

“Mr. Crawford, you almost scared me to death, speaking out of nowhere like that." Nina looked upset.

“It's because you were too engrossed in your conversation." After speaking to Nina, Luke turned to Luca and asked, “Aunt Neile asked if you want anything else other than lobster tonight."

“What do you want for dinner?" Luca asked Nina. Lobster alone was not enough, so they had to think of other dishes to have too.

Luke got jealous when he saw her ask Nina instead of him. She had asked him in the car just now. Why did she not ask him now?

Nina noticed Luke's expression and said, “Anything goes. I'm fine with whatever, but I want you to cook for me."

“I'll go downstairs and prepare, then," said Luca while standing up.

“There's no need to rush. It's still early. I'll help you out later so that I can learn your secrets." Nina tugged at her arm and looked at Luke.

As she expected, the man looked even more upset.

Nina was having fun teasing him. If she were a guy, Luke would have thrown her out by now since she was occupying Luca.

“Oh, you're right. How silly of me." Luca smiled at Nina before turning to Luke and asking, “What do you want for dinner?"
