WHO IS THAT GRUMPY GIRL?

Biserka Apartments, Shanghai.

"What do you mean she's going to live in my apartment, you mob bastard?! I can't entirely agree! You and Pavlo better get out of my apartment, and you find your place to live with your sister!" Biserka hissed in annoyance.

*flashback on*

"Who else did you bring here, you fucking mobster?!" Biserka asked before allowing Benvolio and Callista, Benvolio's sister, into her apartment.

"She's my sister. Her name is Callista."

"And she'll be staying in your apartment for a while with all of us," Benvolio continued his words in a cold tone.

"Huh?! Why does it have to be in my apartment too? Is my apartment a shelter for Constanzo's family? Have Constanzo's family fallen into poverty so they can't afford to pay for lodging and have to stay in a CIA agent's apartment?"

Pavlo tried to calm Biserka down and asked Biserka to let them in first and talk in her apartment with a cool head. "Could you let them in first? You couldn't possibly want to make noise in the corridor, could you?"

Biserka glared at Pavlo and ignored him, then she left them all and sat down in the apartment's living room. "Quickly close the door and take off your sandals!" Biserka let them, Benvolio and Callista in.

Callista, who did not know anything about this situation and did not know that Benvolio would take her to an apartment belonging to a girl she did not know, could only remain silent to observe the problem first.

She wondered who the angry girl was and what it had to do with Benvolio and Pavlo. Then why did Benvolio bring him here?

"Is that girl Benvolio's mistress or maybe Pavlo's girlfriend? Could it be both? Considering she lives with the two of them in her apartment. Wow, what a great girl! Befriending her would be very challenging!" Callista smiled at the thought of it all.

Benvolio turned to Callista, and he was suspicious of Callista's bizarre smile expression. He knew there must be something wrong with his sister's thoughts. "Non pensare a sciocchezze e resta in silenzio mentre parliamo con Biserka. (Don't think nonsense and keep quiet while we talk to Biserka)."

Callista pursed her lips in displeasure at Benvolio's words, "You wish!" then she stuck out her tongue, mocking Benvolio and would not obey the words of her adoptive brother.

Benvolio wore an annoyed expression and gave off a cold aura as if he wanted to devour someone for the umpteenth time, which made Callista unable to move and afraid of him. "Si, si. (Yes, okay)."

Benvolio and Callista stepped into Biserka's apartment and walked over to the girl sitting in her living room.

"I want my sister to stay here with all of us for a while until things are under control and safe. You know Biserka, 'monster lairs' still roam freely out there without us knowing their identity. They can harm Callista," said Benvolio. Flatly explained his request to Biserka.

*flashback off*

"Why are you all acting like this?! Then if I allowed Callista to sleep in my apartment, in which room? There's no room left in my apartment!" Biserka replied and put her hands on her hips.

They were all silent, thinking about a solution to the problem. Biserka hissed in exasperation at the expressions of those who had not thought of this matter before. Biserka couldn't believe all of this. Those who asked him to accept Callista and those who had not thought of a solution regarding where Callista would rest in Biserka's apartment.

Biserka breathed heavily, and she was considering whether to allow Callista to rest in her room or not. But as a fellow girl, she also couldn't bear and didn't have the heart for Callista if she had to stay at a hotel alone in this chaotic situation in Shanghai.

When she was considering this and had not had time to answer that Callista could rest in her bedroom, Biserka experienced shortness of breath and felt uncomfortable all over her body. Even her standing was unsteady.

Pavlo, Benvolio, and Callista, who saw Biserka suddenly like that, were suddenly shocked and immediately held Biserka to avoid her body dropping. Callista directly led him back to sit down before she was utterly helpless.

Pavlo then went to the kitchen to get a glass of water.

And Benvolio, he didn't know what to do with Biserka in her current state---he was at a loss for what to do for her.

"Call the doctor, stupido! Why are you even silent seeing him like this?! Call the doctor quickly!" said Callista scolding Benvolio who was silent seeing Biserka like that.
