Jack agreed.

No matter how long this adopted daughter had stayed by their side, she would never be a good daughter. As such, he had no problem with Luke wanting to teach Leia a lesson on behalf of Luca.

Nevertheless, Queenie was soft-hearted, so he kept this part from her.

"I trust Luke, but you have to tell him not to be too rough with her. Leia is a girl, after all," Queenie frowned from worry that Luke would be too harsh on Leia.

"He knows what he’s doing. You don't need to worry. Promise me you'll stay home tomorrow and not go to the hospital," Jack said. He did not want Queenie to be in contact and suffer with hooligans like Dexter.

"Mm." Queenie nodded, but she was still a little worried.

"Luke did so much for Bea's sake. He doesn't want to see Bea worry about us, so he'll be mindful," Jack added.

Leia would get to stay alive. As long as that was the case, he did not care about the means used to get there.

They had done everything for Leia after they adopted her from the orphanage.

In the villa.

After Luca put the kids to sleep, she waited in the living room for Luke to come back.

She was worried that Dexter would not agree to their proposal.

After all, Leia was not doing well. If it dragged on, not only would her life be in danger but it would also drag Queenie down.

There was a sound of a car parking outside the house.

Luca stood up immediately and looked out of the house through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Luke had returned.

She walked into the kitchen, brought out a glass of warm water, and waited at the entrance.

When Luke opened the door and walked in, there was some cold wind. Luca was not wearing very thick clothes, so she shivered instantly.

"Why are you standing here?" Seeing this, he quickly closed the door. The cold wind was blocked.

"Drink some warm water." Luca handed the water over. The wind was stronger at night, so she knew that it must be cold outside since a snowstorm was coming.
