Jean remained seated there with his legs crossed. He had no intention of standing up. He raised his eyebrows in the face of Nina's fury. "What's the matter with you? I'm only telling you the hard facts. The salary you get from that company is less than what you get from Mr. Mallory in one night. You've been doing this for three years. Why are you still acting like you're offended?"
Nina was trembling with rage. If she had a knife in her hands now, she would not hesitate to plunge it into his heart.
There was no familial love to speak of. If she had not realized that by now, she would have lived her life in vain.
Jean remained nonchalant even though Nina was furious. "Don't be angry. Everyone in A City now knows that you're Percy's mistress. It might not be a glamorous thing, but no one can deny your ability to stay by his side for so long. Listen to my advice and quit that stupid company. The company belongs to that b*tch Bianca, right? Have you forgotten what she did to me? It's ridiculous that you're still working for her!"
Clearly, Jean had not learned his lesson. Nina glared at him coldly.
All he knew was that he was sent to prison because of Bianca, but he had forgotten about what he did to Bianca.
Nina was disappointed that the years he spent in prison did not teach him a lesson. He had not repented, and he only blamed other people for what happened to him.
He was sent to prison because of what he did, and Nina thought that he fully deserved it!
Nina wanted to crack open his skull to see if maggots had eaten his brain. Otherwise, she could not explain why he could not discern right from wrong.
"I don't have money for you. Get lost right now!" She said angrily as she pointed at the door.
Jean felt humiliated by Nina's treatment of him. He stood up and said, "I'm your elder brother, Nina!"
"My elder brother isn't like this!" Nina said as she took a step back. She was disgusted by how he acted and the clothes he wore.
"You!" Jean clenched his fists. He wanted to slap her, but he remembered that she was Percy's woman.
He could not get physical on her because he relied on her for money. Otherwise, if Nina tattled on him to Percy, he would have to suffer.
"It doesn't matter what you think. I'm still your elder brother. You used to love me and respect me when I was in my prime, but I'm sure that you find me an embarrassment now because I went to prison, don't you? How cold-hearted you are, Nina!" Jean said derisively.
"When were you in your prime? Was it when you returned to A City? Jean Langdon, if you're a man, then stop blaming other people for your faults. Our family wouldn't end up like this if only you could reflect upon yourself. Look at you now. What else can you do other than eat, sleep, and go to nightclubs? A woman had cheated you of your money once, and history has now repeated itself because you never learn. Why can you man up and take responsibility for yourself?" Nina roared at him when her arms crossed in front of her.
She did not hope that Jean would listen to her.
"That's utter nonsense!" Jean blurted, feeling humiliated by those words.
"First, it was Marie Rayne, and now there's that woman. How many times has it been? You should know very well! When are you going to learn your lesson? You've been cheated of all your money, yet you still want to pretend to be rich. I'm also human, Jean, and I'm not your personal ATM. Stop asking me for money when you don't have money!" Nina said mockingly. If she had her way, she would have disowned her elder brother.
Even if she had distanced herself from the family, Anna and Jean would still find her and ask for money.
Jean had enough of it. He punched the air with his fist, but he dared not touch Nina.
Percy had told him that he could not hurt Nina if he wanted money.
