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 ims 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 youe out here and deal with him?" the man suggested. He felt a headacheing


    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 ce that made her


    feel safe. She was not nning 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 hees in, I''ll make aint. For the rest of the matters, you can decide for yourself." Nina


    finished speaking and hung up the phone.


    Luca stood by her side and touched Nina''s head tofort her.


    "I don''t want what''s left of my peace to be ruined by him. Luca, do you think that I''m ruthless?" Nina


    asked with her gaze lowered.


    "No, you did the right thing. It''s not like Jean doesn''t have anywhere to live," Luca said. She rubbed her


    head again and continued, "He''s an adult and can take care of himself."


    Nina nodded. She felt a little better with Luca''sfort. Since she was a child, she was told that Jean


    was the only boy in the family and as his sister, she should give in to her brother.


    Anna had never thought that Jean should ever give in to his sister.


    Therefore, when she rejected Jean, she inevitably felt a little guilty.


    Nina was d to have Luca''sfort. Her guilt minimized following her gentle words.


    "Yeah, I''ve taken care of him enough. Luca, thank you for reminding me of that." Nina''s eyes became


    filled with tears as she felt the warmth of Luca''s palm.


    Half an hourter, the delivery man called and said that the food had arrived. He was at the entrance


    and needed a pass to bring it in.


    Nina was toozy to go downstairs to pick up the food. Besides, her legs were sore, so she gave him


    the passcode.


    After a while, the doorbell rang.


    "It must be the delivery man. I''ll open the door." Nina stood up.


    Seeing how weak she was, Luca took her hand, stood up, and said, "I''ll go open the door. Why don''t


    you go wash your hands and get ready to eat?"


    "Okay." Nina nodded.


    Luca went to open the door. She presumed the delivery man was at the door, so she did not check on


    the situation outside through the peephole. She opened the door and was stunned when she saw two


    men outside.


    The one standing at the door was the delivery man while the other was Jean.


    "Dr. Craw, you''re here too!" Jean had bribed the delivery man and asked him to bring him up. He did


    not expect to bump into the woman he had been thinking of day and night.


    When he was hospitalized, he had asked Nina to bring Luca to visit him.


    However, she always responded by saying that she was not close to Luca. As such, he never saw Luca


    when he was hospitalized and his heart itched when he thought of the woman he liked.


    He did not expect to see her here. He thought that it was an unexpected and pleasant surprise.


    The delivery man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I''m d you know each other."


    Jean said proudly, "Of course, we know each other! This is my sister''s house. Come, give me the


    takeout."


    The delivery man handed the food to Jean. He was merry when he thought about how he had made


    some extra cash from this order, so he said, "Miss, your takeaway has been delivered. Enjoy your


    meal."


    After that, the delivery man quickly left.


    Luca stood at the door and stared at Jean. She knew how he got in.

    "Give me the takeaway. You should leave." Luca persuaded him. If Nina saw him, she would be in a


    bad mood.


    Nina has had a bad day. Luca wanted to make Jean leave.


    However, since Jean found a way to get in, he naturally would not leave so easily. He said sullenly, "Dr.


    Craw, I still have your takeout in my hands. How could you shoo me away like this? Is this how you


    treat your friend''s brother?"


    Luca looked at the takeaway and said with a nk expression, "If you''re hungry, you can take the


    takeaway with you."


    "Are you chasing me out?" No matter how stupid Jean was, he knew that he was not weed. If it


    were someone else, he would have pushed them and rushed in but the woman in front of him was his


    prey and target. Jean did not want to shed all pretenses of cordiality just yet.


    "Nina doesn''t want to see you," Luca said.


    "I''m her brother. Dr. Craw, I don''t want to hurt you. If you''re smart enough, get out of the way.


    Otherwise, don''t me me for being rude." Jean warned her coldly. "You know what I do, and I don''t


    have any patience."


    "You want to break in? You can try... but is your woundpletely healed?" Luca looked at where his


    liver was.


    Although she was not the chief surgeon of his operation, she knew the approximate location.


    Jean was nothing to her.


    Jean subconsciously touched the spot where he had been operated on. Although the doctor


    discharged him from the hospital and the wound on the surface had healed, the flesh inside would take


    some time to recover.


    "You! Don''t think that I won''t dare to touch you just because you''re a woman!" He warned as he held


    the takeaway in his hand. He did not make a move as he said, "This is my sister''s house. What right do


    you have to stop me?"


    Nina came out of the bathroom and heard Jean''s voice. Her heart fell as she walked quickly to the


    door. Sure enough, the person standing outside was Jean.


    "How did you get in?!" she yelled as she felt as though her only quiet space was going to be lost.


    Luca replied on behalf of Jean, "He bribed the delivery man and got into the building with him."
