Diana had argued but was unable to dissuade him. What a nuisance!
Whilst she sat quietly, staring out the window, she had no idea that Brian was extremely nervous at that moment.
He was not sure whether this was the right thing to do.
Diana had a very different personality from his mother. What if they didn't like each other? That would be the worst thing for Brian.
But, they were on the way, Kate was informed, and Diana was with him. There was no backing out now.

Brian parked the car in front of his mother's villa. Diana felt a different aura there compared to other wealthy people's houses.
Everything was peaceful and straightforward. There were all kinds of flowers and plants in the garden, beautifully arranged but without being pretentious.
Brian got out and opened the door for Diana.
Their eyes met for a brief, awkward moment before both quickly looked away.
