“In that case, we should have a nice meal tomorrow. We can't slight Luca," said Jack.

He favored Luca, but Queenie thought that he was nice to Luca in Leia's interest.

"I know. Don't worry about it. I've informed the supermarket regarding the ingredients. They'll send someone over first thing in the morning, and I've asked for the freshest," said Queenie. The supermarket near their place had a delivery service, so it was convenient for them.

"Okay, send Leia back after the meal," said Jack as he picked up his briefcase.

"Oh, okay." Queenie's heart ached upon seeing how Jack was unwilling to let Leia stay.

She was then reminded of the old days.

When Leia was a popular celebrity, they would look forward to Leia coming back to have a meal with them during the New Year holidays.

At that time, Jack thought highly of Leia. Even though he did not like the idea of her entering the entertainment industry, he still silently supported her from afar.

However, it seemed like Jack really hated Leia now.

"Also, let me know when she gets better." Jack had no intention of knowing about Leia's condition in detail.

"Why?" Queenie asked curiously.

"She's not getting any younger. Look at Bea. She's only a few years older than her, but she already has three kids. When she gets better, arrange some dates for her," said Jack. He did not want to raise Leia for the rest of his life.

He would not mind raising the old Leia forever if she did not get married.

However, after finding out about her true nature, Jack just wanted her to stay away so that she would not harm Queenie.

Besides, someone who claimed to love him and his family would not tamper with the supplements and cause chronic poisoning to their own mother.

"Dates?" Queenie recalled Leia's previous scandal with Brody and Wayne. It had caused public outrage. Basically, Leia had become the laughing stock of high society.
