Luca felt a surge of warmth in her heart. Those compassionate words sounded like they came from a parent caring about their child's daily life.

"It's alright. Although I'm taking up another job, I'm still able to manage it," said Luca. She finished drinking the chicken soup and picked up the spoon to help herself with the food.

Queenie prepared all the dishes. They were home-cooked for the guest.

Luca took her time tasting the dishes. Although they were not particularly tasty, they had the taste of home—something that she had been missing.

Queenie and Jack exchanged glances with each other, then asked, "Oh, Luca, where are you staying now? I'll ask the driver to send you back home later."

Luca thought of Luke. If the driver were to send her back, then her current address would be found.

She shook her head and said, "Thank you, Mrs. Norman, but I can go home by myself."

"It's cold out there. There won't be as many drivers working this late at night. Don't reject my offer and let my driver send you home, alright? We're all staying in A City. How far can it be?" Queenie insisted.

Luca pondered for a moment. She had no choice but to agree.

She must not let the driver send her back to the villa, though. She would head to Amur's place after dinner and check in on how he had been doing these days.

Queenie continued to ask her when Luca agreed to it. "Luca, I've never heard you mention your love life after knowing you for so long. Are you dating someone?"

Luca paused when she was halfway picking up some vegetables. They wanted to send her home, and now, they were asking about her love life. All they wanted to know was whether or not she was dating Luke.

Luca did not want to lie to them. She had no plans of getting together with someone to put on a show either. She shook her head and said, "I'm swamped with work now. How can I possibly have the time to date someone?"

"How can you not have time for that? Although work is important, dating is important too. Love can sweeten your life. You just have to find someone suitable who understands and supports your career. Previously, Jack was busy with work too when he was pursuing me. But I could understand him. That's why he could balance work and family very well." Queenie put down her spoon and held Luca's hand. "Luca, a few outstanding single men are working at Mr. Norman's company. Why don't I introduce some of them to you? If there's someone you like, Mr. Norman and I can fix you up with him. Women should date when they're young. You can't keep focusing on work only."

Luca listened to her advice. Queenie was very concerned about her love life only because she was worried that Luca would interfere in Luke's marriage.
