"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.

"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.

She opened her eyes and habitually looked beside her, but Luke had already gotten up.

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

She got up and listened carefully. There was no sound coming from the bathroom. When she was about to get out of bed to wash up, her phone, which was on the bedside table, rang.

Luca answered the call.

"Luca, are you okay?" Nina's voice that came from the other end of the line sounded deeply concerned. She stayed up late last night, and while she was scrolling through news pages, she saw a viral video on the internet.
