"Because Daddy said that the family is not peaceful now and it'll affect our quality of life. That's why we moved out. It's not just us. Even Uncle and his family are moving out," Rainie said.

Queenie knew that this was because of Allison's return.

Kids would not tell lies, especially a little girl like Rainie.

Queenie nodded, indicating that she understood. With a gentle smile, she said, "Alright, Rainie, you can go upstairs to play."

"Alright, Grandma." Rainie got up and headed upstairs with little steps.

Queenie's heart faltered when she saw the child's back. 'If only Bianca was in the country. If she was around, the family would be a happy family.'

Luca stood in Jack's study and watched him search for his oil paintings in the collection rack. She did not say a word.

Apart from loving to drink while socializing, his other hobby was collecting oil paintings.

However, due to his status, he did not reveal this hobby of his.

"Oh, Luca. I should apologize for the things that have been happening lately." Jack took out an oil painting and placed it on the table. He apologized to Luca.

Luca looked at him, astonished. "I beg your pardon, Mr. Norman?"

"I'm talking about the blind date with Enoch," said Jack while taking off the cloth that was covering the oil painting. "I learned about some of the things that happened later on. Enoch has given you a lot of trouble, hasn't he?"

Luca nodded and did not hide it from him. "A little. Actually, it's not that much trouble."

"Are you saying this only because you're afraid I might punish him?" Jack asked. If a civil servant were to be targeted by his superior, that would be the end of his career.

Luca shook her head. 'Why should I be afraid that Enoch will be punished?

'I didn't do anything. Even if Enoch is really punished, what does it have anything to do with me?'
