When Queenie ended the call, Leia was eager to know what she said. “Mom, is she coming?"

"She's almost here," said Queenie. Then, she proceeded to frown and nag at her when she recalled what Leia said earlier. "Leia, you shouldn't say the things you said just now in front of her. You're asking someone for a favor right now, so don't say those things."

They had been waiting in the living room for some time, but Luca had yet to arrive, so Leia began to suspect that Luca made an empty promise to Queenie.

Thus, she kept badmouthing Luca.

Finally, Queenie had to call Luca to confirm after Leia urged her to.

Leia grunted and criticized her, "How pretentious of her. Do you really think she wants to help me? She's just doing it to please you and dad because it might be beneficial to her in the future."

Queenie went pale and looked toward the stairway. Fortunately, Jack was not coming downstairs. He would have thrown a fit if he heard that come out of her mouth.

Ever since Luca saved her, Jack thought highly of Luca, so he would not tolerate Queenie and Leia talking badly about Luca.

"Enough, stop it. Your father will be mad if he hears this. Besides, Luca is here to help you. She won't have any other intentions." Queenie hurriedly pressed Leia's hand to signal her to stop talking.

Otherwise, she may be kicked out if Jack heard her.

Leia pouted as Queenie was still siding with Luca. What a joke.

She was just asking for it at this point.

Leia stood up.

Upon seeing that, Queenie said, "Leia, don't make a scene. Luca will be here soon. Just sit down quietly."
