"Now you know why I asked you to do this, huh?" Rain rose to her feet with a smile on her face and patted Gale on the shoulder.

It was originally her job, but Leia disgusted her so much that she entrusted Gale with the task instead.

Rain was in charge of some other matters.

Gale shook his head and went upstairs, resigning himself to continue investigating Leia.

They followed Luke's instructions. They had to compile a list of all the bad things Leia had done and show them to Queenie.

Luke and Jack both believed that Queenie should not be soft-hearted toward Leia. It was the best way for her to get to know the real Leia.

"Ask your subordinates to do it for you if you find it too disgusting," added Rain.

"I'll do it when I can't take it anymore." Gale walked up to the second floor and continued with his work.

Rain returned to the third floor to continue work too.

Luca was surprised. When did he get up? How did she not notice?

Luca answered the call.
