After learning that Bianca was not coming back, Queenie's eyes grew dim.

The reason why she put all her attention on Leia was because of Luca's absence. She could not even worry about her if she wanted to.

Besides, Bianca was not always reachable.

“I guess I won't be able to see Bea this New Year's again. Luke, Jack and I aren't getting any younger. Who wouldn't want to have their children by their side at this age? So, I want to tell you something." Queenie put down her utensils, and her face stiffened with dismay.

Luke understood the situation and put down his utensils as well. "Yes, Mother-in-law?"

When Queenie glanced at Jack to see him shake his head indicating that she should not say what she was about to say, she ignored him. Then, she looked at Luke and said, "There's actually something we've been hiding from you... Leia is back."

Luke remained silent.

Queenie tried to decipher Luke's expression, but no emotion could be seen on his face as he was too calm.

She had no choice but to say, "Leia is critically ill. It's so serious that if we keep it from you any longer, she might leave us any time now. Luke, I know that Leia made many mistakes in the past, but she got the punishment she deserved. I hope that you'll let bygones be bygones. At least let her recover here for the time being. We can further discuss it after she's fully recovered."

"I understand," Luke said indifferently as he picked up his glass of water and took a sip. He could not say that he had fallen into a trap as he was aware of what Queenie wanted to talk to him about.

Queenie noticed that he did not react badly, nor did he say that he would send Leia back to New York. She heaved a sigh of relief and said, "So, are you okay with Leia staying here to get treatment?"

"Isn't she sick?" Luke asked in reply.

Queenie nodded. "It's a liver disease, and the doctor said that the only way she can survive is to get a liver transplant. However, my blood type and Mr. Norman's blood type are not compatible with Leia's. So, we want to make it known to the public to see if there are any kind-hearted people out there who can help her—"

"You want to find a voluntary donor for Leia?" Luke then knew that Luca probably had the same idea. However, when she suggested it, she did not think about Jack.
