Queenie was still hesitant because after what Luca had done for their family, they should be the ones thanking her.

Now, it was the other way around, which was inappropriate.

After noticing Queenie's hesitation, Luca said, “Aunt Queenie, this is just a token of appreciation. You know there's no hidden meaning to it. Since it's New Year's, I wanted to gift you two some things to show my gratitude."

Nina also said, "She's right, Aunt Queenie. If it makes you uncomfortable, you can just gift Luca an envelope with money when the new year is here."

Queenie looked at Luca with her lips slightly open as she nodded. "Okay. Thank you, Luca."

"You're welcome, Aunt Queenie." Luca smiled faintly after Queenie accepted the gifts.

Queenie saw that Luca was not angry in the slightest bit. She even gifted her a whole bunch of things. It would be rude of her to continue dwelling on what had happened yesterday.

Her heart softened after seeing Luca's smiling face as if the bitterness in her heart that was caused by Leia had been washed away.

After dinner, Luca and Nina both helped Queenie with the bags as they went to the underground parking lot of the mall. Then, they sent Queenie to her car and watched her leave.

Nina looked at her face and said thoughtfully, "Luca, you seem to care a lot about Aunt Queenie."

"Is that so? Perhaps it's because Aunt Queenie reminds me of my mother who suffered a lot to raise me." Luca smiled.

"Your mother is amazing." Nina's eyes grew gloomy when she mentioned her mother. Other mothers could do such things for their children, yet her mother...

"It's getting late. Did you drive here?" Luca asked.

Nina shook her head. "No, I came in the driver's car, but I knew I was going to have dinner here, so I let him go back first. I have to inform him to pick me up now."

"No need to go through so much trouble. Just take my car. I'll go home after sending you back," said Luca as she estimated Percy's mansion to be quite far from the mall.
