Chapter 1017 She Did Not Want Bianca to be the Winner

Queenie held Rainie's hand and smiled. "Are you sure? I thought that we're eating out because you're tired of my cooking."

Jack coughed lightly and said, "You did mention that you were craving

bouillabaisse yesterday."

Bianca was warmed by her parents' interaction. "Didn't Leia come along with you?"

Queenie explained, "Leia is busy making preparations for her wedding, so she couldn't come along."

Bianca nodded in understanding. "Luke reserved a private room for us. Do you want to join us for dinner?" She invited them.

"Is it a business dinner? Then we shouldn't disturb you," Jack said. He gently pinched Tommy's face; he was very fond of his youngest grandchild.

Bianca smiled and shook her head. "I wouldn't have brought the children along if it were a business dinner. It's just a normal family dinner. You should join us."

Tommy was happy to see a bigger crowd around the dining table. "Grandpa, Grandma, I'm also inviting you to join us!"

Jack and Queenie looked at each other and accepted the invitation. "Alright, alright, let's have dinner together."

They sat down around the dining table in the private room. A while later, Luke came in.

Bianca had already informed him by a message that she had met her parents at the hotel and had invited them to join in for dinner. That was why he was not too surprised.

"Dad, Mom," Luke greeted them and sat down next to Bianca.

"Where is Gordan?" Bianca asked. She thought that he would bring Gordan along.

"He went back to his hotel because he has some other business," Luke said. He did not tell her that he did not invite Gordan. After all, the dinner was supposed to be a private family affair.
