The maid widened her eyes and said, “Do you mean Dr. Craw? I only know that she’s a research professor in a pharmaceutical company. I’m not sure about anything else…”
Leia pounded on the couch when she listened to the maid’s worthless words. “Useless piece of sh*t.”
After Queenie sent Luca off, she paced back to the living room without saying anything. She then ordered the maid, “Go to my bedroom and bring my bag out. Oh yes, and Leia’s bag too.”
“Mom, where are we going?” Leia saw her in a hurry and was confused.
“To the hospital. I’m bringing you to the hospital for a check-up now,” Queenie said. Previously, Leia was pregnant with Brody’s child and her body was already in terrible condition then. When she was in New York, she got pregnant with her boyfriend’s child. However, they ended up aborting the child.
Her body’s condition had deteriorated after undergoing an abortion twice. Queenie did not expect Leia to have liver and kidney problems other than gynecological issues.
She did not know about it back then, but she believed Luca, so she was going to bring Leia for a check- up at the hospital.
“Mom, don’t listen to her nonsense. She would have written me a prescription if she’s that impressive. I know my body well. You don’t have to bring me there.” Leia was strongly against going for a check-up at the hospital. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
Queenie’s eyes turned red when she looked at how disobedient she was. “Leia, I’m going to be angry if you refuse to listen to me.”
Leia looked at her kind mother, stepped forward, and held her hand. “Mom, I’m still young. Don’t listen to what she said.”
Queenie had first-hand experience with Luca’s medical skills, which was why she trusted her so much.
Luca was not someone who would talk nonsense…
“Leia, have you forgotten what you’ve promised me?” Queenie had no choice but to remind her.
The day Leia secretly came back, she knelt in front of the villa for a long time. Jack did not allow her to enter the house. In the end, it was Queenie who convinced him. She made Leia swear that she would listen to Queenie in front of Jack. It was only then she was allowed to enter the house.
Leia recalled it after she reminded her.
She did not expect Queenie to take it seriously when she had just casually made a promise. Was she going to have to listen to her for the rest of her life?
Of course, the answer was no.
However, Leia was left with no choice now. She could only say, “Mom, I’ll listen to you.”
“Alright. Go get your ID. I’ll make an appointment with the doctor now.” Queenie could not be bothered that much. She was being straightforward. After all, her children’s health was the most important thing to her.
However, Leia did not think so in her heart. Queenie was such a hassle.
…
On the other hand.
Gale was standing beside Luke, reporting to him the progress of his work.
After Luke finished listening to him, he said, “We can’t stop keeping an eye on her. Luca’s brother is still in B City. There’s still no news on him. Find someone to investigate what her brother is doing there.”
Gale replied, “Yes, I’ll send someone to find out about this. But Boss, there would be information about him if he’s a normal person. His movements and expenses would have left a record. If they’re hiding his tracks, he’s most likely involved in something illegal…”
Luke knew that. “I need you to find out what illegal activities he’s involved in.”
“I know what to do,” Gale replied. His boss had never stopped investigating Luca and Tia. For some reason, between these two people, one of them had a perfect background. They even knew what award she had won at different ages. On the contrary, there was a gap in the other person’s background information. No matter how they had investigated, they could not seem to find the missing gap.
“And, Boss, I’d like to report something,” said Gale.
“What is it?” Luke stood on the balcony and stared at the sky. The security system was the best in this suburban villa. They had even blocked the signals by installing a jammer.
The alarm would be triggered if there was any foreign equipment used to eavesdrop on their conversation.
“Leia has secretly returned. She has US citizenship now and used her family name when she came back here. Our men didn’t notice it at first,” Gale said. It was their mistake, or it could be said that Leia was too cunning.
If it had not been Rain who checked the data recently and found Leia’s ID photo, they probably would have never known about it.
“She’s back?” Luke raised his brows. He did not expect her to have the guts to come back here.
He made her suffer when she was abroad, so she had always been thinking of a way to escape and come back here. It was out of his expectation that she would use her family name to come back.
“Yes, she’s back. We tracked her down and found out that she’s now in the Norman family’s residence,” Gale replied. After he knew Leia came back, they began to track her down immediately.
“And Mr. Norman didn’t say anything about it?” Luke asked. Jack had agreed to everything he did, but he kept silent this time…
It looked like Leia had found a way to stay here.
“Boss, what should we do now?” asked Gale. If the boss agreed, they could forge fake evidence of her entering the country illegally and she would be sent back.
“Let’s see what’s going on with the Norman family.” Luke did not take action on Leia instantly. Although Jack already knew how evil Leia was, he still let her stay this time. It indicated that he was not a heartless person, after all.
However, Luke understood why he did that. After all, he had spent many years raising his daughter, Leia. Moreover, there was another person involved too—Queenie. She was the soft-hearted one.
“Alright. Got it.” Gale nodded. His phone vibrated for a while. After he took it out and glanced at it, he said, “Boss, the person who’s watching the Norman family just sent a message telling me that he saw Dr. Craw leaving the Norman family’s house. Mrs. Norman is bringing Leia somewhere. Our men are following them now.”
“Have them follow them. Let’s see where they’re heading.” Luke lifted his arm and glanced at the time. It seemed like it was time to bring his children to visit the Norman family.
Leia thought no one would realize her return. If that was the case, he should let her have a taste of fear.
“Yes,” Gale answered. He gave the orders hurriedly and asked their men to continue following them.
After Luke left the villa, he picked up his phone and called Queenie.
Queenie was sitting in the car. She was startled for a moment when she saw him calling her. Even though Bianca was not in the country now, Luke still performed his filial duties to Jack and her. He would make a call to greet them on every festive occasion, and he would buy them supplements too.
