Luke would never call if there was nothing.

Queenie signaled Leia, who was sitting beside her, to be quiet. She told her not to speak. Then, she answered the call. “Luke, what’s the matter?”

Leia, who was sitting beside her, was already feeling uneasy. She got even more restless when she heard Luke’s name. Why was this man calling at this time?!

Could it be that he had already found out she had sneaked back here…

Leia was listening to the call while comforting herself at the same time. She had found an agency to help her. The agency’s people had been forging her traces to show that she was still in New York.

Hence, Luke should not have noticed anything amiss. He was so busy. How could he keep an eye on her?

While Leia was comforting herself, Qunnie was worried too.

On the other end of the phone, Luke said, “Mother, Tommy told me he’s missing his grandmother. I’m planning to bring the kids over for dinner with you and Father. Is that alright?”

Queenie glanced at Leia when she heard that. “Today?”

“Yes, the kids have a school holiday tomorrow. They can stay a little longer,” Luke said. He looked like he was asking for their opinion but he had already decided to head to the Norman family’s house.

“Sure. I’ll ask the maids to make preparations.” Queenie had no reason to reject him.

After the call ended, Leia said unhappily, “Mom, how could you agree? Isn’t he going to find out that I’m here if he brings the kids over?”

Queenie’s expression was complicated. She had obviously thought about that too. “You only have to hide in your room and not make any noises. Everything will be fine.”

“His kids are annoying. They keep running around. What if they run into my bedroom? You shouldn’t have agreed to let him come over,” Leia muttered. Previously, she was in love with Luke and thought he was perfect.

However, fear and hatred were all she had for him now.

If it had not been for Luke and Bianca, she would not have ended up like this today.
