Marie bit her lip. She knew all of that?
She instantly felt guilty when Wanda looked at her.
Luca was puzzled when she heard Wanda's words and looked at Marie's guilty expression.
What else did Marie and her mother do that she was not aware of?
Nina stood at the side and apologized to Wanda, "I'm very sorry, Aunt Rayne. If this happens again, please just call the police
immediately without informing me."
She already knew that she would not be able to chase Jean away even before she came.
It was because this was the first time this had happened, so she wanted to apologize to Wanda personally.
"Nina, what did you say?" Jean did not believe the words that came out of her mouth. He instantly could not bear the sight of her
and raised his hand to slap her.
Luca reacted quickly and blocked him. She raised her hand and forcefully grabbed Jean's wrist. "If you dare lay a finger on her,
I'll make you regret it."
Jean looked at Luca's exquisite face. Even though she was barefaced and looked angry, she still looked pretty. He could not help
but be captivated by her beauty. He embarrassedly pulled back his hand. "I was just messing with Nina. I wouldn't actually hit
her."
Luca dusted off her hands as she felt disgusted that she had touched Jean.
After being around Luke for some time, she became like him—a germaphobe.
She said, "Leave right now. If you don't, it's you who'll suffer."
"On what basis? This is the Rayne family, and my last name is Rayne. What's an outsider like you yakking about here?" Marie
saw Jean not taking his eyes off Luca. He even spoke to her in an ingratiating tone. She immediately got angry and reached to
pinch his waist.
She used great force and did not show Jean any mercy.
"Hiss! What are you doing, you crazy b*tch?" Jean's gaze temporarily left Luca, and he glared at Marie.
Marie said sarcastically, "I'm helping you save your soul. Otherwise, your soul would've been snatched by that wh*re!" "You're
crazy," said Jean. They came here today to ingratiate themselves with the Rayne family and benefit from it.
The reason he listened to Marie was that he was lacking money. At the same time, he agreed with her words. Wanda was just a
city girl who dared not offend Percy and would not cause any trouble for Luke.
They did not expect that they would summon Nina before they could even go in.
Luca was not interested in hearing them talk and gave an ultimatum, “If you don't leave, Mr. Crawford's people will be here
soon."
"Luke?" Jean gritted his teeth. That man must be haunting him.
He stole his woman and ruined everything!
"Mr. Crawford knows you came here to cause trouble, so he got some people to come over. They should be here anytime now.
They're coming to send the both of you to the police station." Luca glanced at her watch.
"You..." Jean did not expect that Luke would intervene in such a matter.
Marie shrunk out of fear when she heard Luke's name as he was a man of his word. She was detained for a few days before.
Ever since then, she did not dare make noise outside the gate. For a long time, she could only wait for Wanda to come out after
being chased by the security guards to the opposite road.
"Forget it, Jean. Let's not bother arguing with the likes of them. Let's go. I'll contact Grandpa myself." Marie hurriedly pulled his
arm and left.
Jean thought that Luca was bluffing to frighten them and had no intention of leaving. "What are you afraid of? No, I can't go
home empty-handed today."
"You've already disgraced yourself by coming to someone else's doorstep. What more do you want? Money?" Nina stomped her
foot in anger. Luca had warned them and given them a chance, but they still refused to leave?
Marie pulled Jean's neck and whispered something in his ear.
Jean became grim-faced and viciously spat on the ground after she was done talking. "Just you wait. I won't stop here."
After his harsh words, Jean and Marie left in a hurry.
Nina breathed a sigh of relief and could not help but think that she was almost forced to go to the police station again to bail out
the loser that was Jean.
"I'm sorry, Aunt Rayne. I didn't know that Jean would go so far," apologized Nina.
Wanda shook her head and said helplessly, "It's not your fault. I think he was incited by Marie. How could he."
She dared not judge what others did, so she did not continue.
Nina smiled awkwardly and finally looked at Luca. "Thank you, Luca."
"No problem. Do you have a tissue?" asked Luca. She got out of the car in a hurry and did not wear mittens, so her skin came in
contact with Jean.
She felt dirty.
Nina looked into her handbag and pulled out a wet tissue. "Is a wet tissue okay?
"Yes, thanks." Luca opened the packaging and pulled out a wet tissue to wipe her hands.
Nina glanced at Luca and added, "Good thing you were smart enough to think of a way to scare them. Otherwise, there's no
telling how long they would continue making noise here."
“I meant it." After wiping her hands clean, she put the wet wipe back into the packaging to throw it away later when she came
across a trash bin.
"Really? But isn't Mr. Crawford out of town on a business trip?" Nina's eyes widened.
Luca glanced at Wanda. Since Wanda was looking at her, she could only make up a small lie, "Mr. Crawford was looking for me
for some work-related matters, and I was worried that Jean and Marie would get into big trouble, so I told him."
Nina's thoughts were written all over her face. She nodded and said, "Mr. Crawford is awesome."
"Luke's people had sent Marie to the police station before. That's why she's so scared. What are you both standing there for?
Come in and have a seat," said Wanda. She did not have a problem with Nina as she was not the same kind of person as Jean.
Plus, because of her relationship with Bianca, she quite liked Nina.
"No, thank you, Aunt Rayne. I have some stuff to do, so I'll be leaving," Nina said in a hurry and looked at Luca. "Want to come
with me?"
"I'd better wait here. Mr. Crawford's people should be arriving soon." Luca felt that it would be troublesome to inform Luke and
then have him inform those people again, so she planned to wait here.
Nina thought of going back to teach Jean a lesson, so she left first.
Luca saw Wanda still standing there and said, "Aunt Rayne, it's cold out here. You should go back in. I'll leave after I take care of
everything here."
Wanda shook her head slightly, and her eyes looked even more gentle. "I'll chat with you and keep you company. If you don't
have anything to do later, come in for a cup of tea."
"Sure." Luca accepted Wanda's invitation instantly as she missed her grandpa.
She usually would not have an excuse or opportunity to visit the old man, so now that Wanda had given her the chance, she
immediately agreed.
Wanda swiped her card and walked out. She stood next to Luca and chatted with her.
