Chapter 1200 He Was Curious About The Woman's Identity
Jack knew what Old Master Crawford's intentions were by giving him the kolinsky sable paintbrushes at this timing. He nodded and accepted the gift. "Please thank Old Master Crawford for me. When Queenie feels better, our families should have a meal together." "Sounds good," Luke nodded.
Old Master Crawford knew that Jack would do better than ever after he returned to politics, so T Corporation would be riding on his wave then.
The caretaker walked over with a bowl of herbal concoction and said softly, "Madam, the concoction is ready."
Queenie smiled and picked up the bowl. She chose to gulp it all down in one sitting instead of drinking it sip by sip because the concoction was bitter.
After she finished it, she frowned slightly as she could still taste the bitterness of the concoction in her mouth.
The nanny handed her a piece of candy and said, "Madam, you'll feel better if you eat something sweet."
Queenie shook her head to turn her down.
Luke asked, "Mother-in-law, how do you feel after taking the concoction?" "I feel much better and am not afraid of the cold as much as I was before. The temperature of the air conditioner in the house today is lower than it usually is. Although the effects aren’t immediate, I do feel much better." Queenie smiled. Even though she could still taste the bitterness in her mouth, her heart was finally at ease.
After she started taking the herbal concoction, she felt that her health was improving by the day.
"That's good." Luke nodded and thought about the mystery woman who gave Queenie the herbs. He was curious about the woman’s identity.
Queenie's gaze fell on Bianca again, she said, "Bea, stay for dinner. I’ll have the caretaker cook your favorite dishes." "Yes, that sounds good," Bianca nodded.
Queenie said, "Bea, the flowers in the garden are in full bloom. You used to love looking at the flora and fauna in the garden. Why don't we go for a walk?"
Bianca had no interest in plants and wanted to turn her down.
However, Luke was there, so she had no choice but to nod, stand up, and say, "Okay."
Queenie was pleased to see that Bianca was not as resistant toward her as before. The corners of her mouth were raised as she stood up and said," Okay, I'll take you there."
Jack urged her, "Put a jacket on." "No." Queenie shook her head and smiled. "The sun is warm and wonderful. I don't feel that cold today."
With that, she held Bianca's arm intimately and they walked out together.
Luke watched them leave and said, "Queenie is doing much better." "Yes. At midnight last night, she told me that it was too warm and wanted me to remove the blanket." Although Jack's expression was still serious, he could not conceal his joy.
He was happier than anyone that Queenie was getting better.
Luke said, "Father-in-law, I want to find out the identity of that woman."
Jack nodded, pondered on it for a while, and then said, "Your mother-in-law doesn't want us to pursue this. Since that woman chose to go about it anonymously, she thinks that the woman does not want her
identity to be known." "Everyone already knows how you met her and is concerned about her identity. This is a villa area and the security system is excellent. Even if we don't look into it, others will," Luke said.
"I know..." Jack knew that news about what happened to Queenie had already spread throughout A City. Since then, everyone thought of the mystery woman as a goddess-like figure.
Anyone who was sick wanted to contact this woman for treatment, so of course, people were motivated to investigate this matter.
"If I find out who she is, I can misdirect the public and protect her privacy," Luke said.
Jack thought that what he said made sense. If they did not investigate, the woman would still be found by others sooner or later.
He looked at Luke. "Go forth with the investigation, then. I want to thank her face to face. By the way, there's one thing that'll help you."
Luke nodded and knew what he was talking about.
Jack asked the maid to take the box from his study and handed it to Luke." This is the box that the herbs were packed in. I haven't torn off the courier note on it, so you have an advantage over the others who are trying to find her." "Thank you, Father-in-law." Luke took his phone out, snapped a photo of the courier note, and sent it to Jason.
The parcel was sent from the same city. As long as he had the tracking number, he could find out which employee picked up the parcel.
This was faster than going through the security footage.
"Find this person, but don't let your mother-in-law know. She's grateful to that woman. If she finds out that she has caused a lot of inconvenience to that woman, she'll feel guilty," Jack said.
"Okay," Luke nodded.
Jack poured him a cup of tea. "Here, have some tea."
Luke picked up the teacup, took a sip, and heard Jack say, "You asked Bea to come over today, right?"
Even though Jack had not said anything about this matter, he still noticed the unwillingness hidden in Bianca’s smile.
"Johann said that being in a good mood will speed up the discharge of toxins." Luke did not deny it. Jack had been in politics for decades and was proficient in reading body language.
He could tell at a glance whether Bianca came willingly or not.
"Yeah, what she wants now is to see Bea and the children." Jack took a sip of tea and sighed.
In the garden of Norman Residence.
Queenie held Bianca's hand, not knowing that she was uncomfortable with it.
Although it was morning, it was way past dawn so the sunlight was getting stronger. Bianca felt uncomfortable when the sun shone on her skin. : owner of this content.
Bianca still had several layers of gauze wrapped around her body. If she sweated, the gauze might stick to the wounds and she would have to deal with it when she got home.
When she thought about that, she said, "Mom, let's go sit in the pavilion."
Queenie was still admiring the flowers. When she heard Bianca say that, she thought she was tired and nodded. The two went to the pavilion to rest.
Queenie looked at the children who were playing not far away and said," Bea, I'm very happy that you and the kids are here to visit me today."
In the past, Luke would bring the kids to visit but Bianca would never make an appearance.
In addition to feeling lost, Queenie would also feel sad.
As such, she was overjoyed that Bianca had taken the initiative to pay her a visit today.
"If it makes you happy, I'll come by to visit more." Bianca squinted to look at the kids while she half- heartedly replied Queenie.
She was not interested in fulfilling her promise.
"Really? That's great!" Queenie was overjoyed. "Bea, when I get better, let's go abroad together." "Where?" Bianca asked casually.
"We can visit your sister," Queenie said, "Your sister has a boyfriend and they want to get engaged. Of course, we have to go there! I'll have to talk to your dad, and I'm counting on you to help. We can just tell him that we're going on a vacation abroad. How does that sound?"
