“Smokin' Hot Steakhouse? Alright, I'm coming down now." Luca knew Queenie was looking for her because of Enoch, but she bit the bullet and went to meet her.

"Oh, I reserved a private room. Just mention my name to the waiter when you come in later," said Queenie.

It was different this time. Last time, Queenie was hoping Luca's colleagues would know that Luca was on a blind date. That was why she picked a cafe without a private room.

This time, Enoch needed to talk to Luca. They needed a quieter place to have a conversation. Hence, Queenie reserved a private room under her name.

"Alright, Mrs. Norman. Please give me a moment. I'm heading there now," replied Luca. She hung up the call, stood up, and walked out of the office.

While she was in the elevator going downstairs, she wondered if she should make it clear to Enoch in front of Queenie.

She knew Queenie would be able to understand her. Love and relationships could not be forced, after all.

What made Luca worried was that if Queenie knew Luca was not interested in Enoch, maybe she would arrange for another man to go on a blind date with her immediately. It was to make sure nothing was going on between her and Luke.

She felt helpless at the thought of this.

Luca left T Corporation and headed to Smokin' Hot Steakhouse. It was the white-collared workers' favorite Western restaurant nearby. Hence, the place was fully booked when she reached the restaurant.

It took some time before Luca found a waiter and asked which private room Queenie was in.

Luca pushed the private room door open. Sure enough, other than Queenie, Enoch was there too.

Queenie smiled and waved to Luca. "Luca, come here and take a seat."

Luca walked into the private room helplessly. Queenie was still trying to set her up with Enoch.

Luca could see Queenie was anxious about matchmaking her and Enoch.

"Mrs. Norman." Luca walked into the private room and closed the door. After that, she sat on the chair.
