Chapter 3223 Mother-Daughter In The Kitchen Making Dinner For Him

"Mrs. Norman," Luca called out to Queenie.

"Yes?" Queenie's eyes were filled with warmth. She seemed eager to shower Luca with affection.

After visiting Leia today, Queenie finally understood that Leia hated her and her husband deeply.

Even when they had no idea about Luca's identity and treated her indifferently, Leia was jealous and resentful. It all stemmed from Leia's deep-seated hatred toward them. She would also resent anyone who was close to them.

Hence, Queenie knew she had to slowly let go of Leia as her daughter. It was best to act as though she never had such a daughter.

Only by doing so could she feel better.

Without Lela, all she had now was Luca. As a mother with just one child, she wanted to give Luca the best of everything.

However, Luce had grown up and was a mother of four. There was only so much she could give now, and even if she could, it was too late for many things.

Luca pointed at the bed. The guest room bed was big enough for both of them to sleep comfortably. "Mrs. Norman, can I take a nap with you?"

Queenie was taken aback for a moment, then quickly nodded. "Of course."

Before adopting any children, she had always dreamed of soothing her biological daughter to sleep.

Now, even though Luca was grown, she was giving her this chance. Queenie walked to the other side and got on the bed.

Luca followed.

The two lay down together. Luca asked, "Mrs. Norman, do you know how to tell stories?" Queenie felt a bit embarrassed. "I used to tell Leia stories when she was little, but as she grew older, she didn't need them anymore, so I stopped."

"Could you tell me one? I'd love to hear a story." Luca wanted to experience the feeling of falling asleep to a mother's story.
