Queenie felt very uncomfortable when she looked at the harmonious scene presented in front of her eyes.

She went back to the master bedroom. Jack was facing the dressing mirror putting on his tie. He noticed Queenie coming in and asked her, “Are Luke and the others awake?”

“They’re awake,” Queenie said. Seeing how composed Jack was, she stopped herself from saying more.

Jack noticed the expression on her face. “What’s wrong?” He asked out of concern.

“Jack, I think you should speak to Luke whenever you have the time. When I went over to wake them up, I found Luca in their room…” Queenie said worriedly.

Luca was an outstanding woman, and she was a good match for Luke. However, Luke was already their son-in-law. Even if Bianca had lost her memories, her love for Luke did not lessen. She would not accept it if Luke were together with another woman.

Jack stopped what he was doing and frowned. “Did they sleep together?”

“No. Luke was sleeping on the floor. He said that the children could not sleep because they missed their mother, so he asked Luca to come over and tell them a bedtime story. They might not be sleeping on the same bed, but that’s because the bed isn’t big enough. If the bed were big enough, who knows if they might be sleeping together?” Queenie voiced her concerns.

Even though they were not sleeping on the same bed, Jack thought that it was very inappropriate. He fastened his tie and said, “I’ll talk to Luke.”

“Mm. You have to. Bea might be overseas now, but that doesn’t mean Luke can do whatever he wants. There’s no reason for them to sleep in the same room,” Queenie said. She thought that Luke should have carried out his responsibility as the children’s father instead of asking Luca to take over.

Moreover, it was even more concerning that Luca managed to coax the children to sleep. It proved that Luca was very important to the children, as though she could replace Bianca’s position…

Jack nodded. He put on his coat and left the bedroom.

Queenie did not follow behind him. She did not want to join in the conversation between men.

Jack went to Bianca’s bedroom. Luke had already cleaned up. Luca was in the attached bathroom helping the children wash their faces.
