“That’s the reason why I called you today. We plan to make a move soon. We’re waiting for you to see if there’s any chance.” Mandy asked.“I can do it anytime, but I need to prepare before it…” Leia recalled what the doctor said today. Was it not a good chance?“He’s running out of patience,” Mandy reminded.“I haven’t finished talking yet. There’s a good chance now,” Leia said in a lazy tone. What the doctor said in front of Queenie had given her a good opportunity.Mandy’s spirits were lifted at once, and she replied, “Really? When?”“Let me confirm again first. Ask your sugar daddy to be patient. It’ll be in the next few days. He’ll be able to sleep with that woman he has longed for soon.” Leia smirked. Thinking of Luca being taken away by Matysh and what would happen to her after that boosted her mood.The pleasure came from the hatred she felt for Luca.“He isn’t the only one who’s in a hurry. I want to end this too. Life has been boring these days,” Mandy could not help bu
Leia looked down as a hint of malice flashed across her eyes. Leia did not expect things to go so smoothly. Queenie was really planning to ask Luca to help her nurse her health.It seemed like she would be able to get Matysh’s money soon.“Leia?” Queenie was worried Leia would disagree with it when she saw that Leia had fallen silent. She planned to convince Leia again.This would be good for her health, so it had to be taken seriously.“I’m worried that she’ll play a prank on me after what I’ve done to her. She might even harm me…” said Leia. She did not immediately agree to it as she thought of speaking ill of Luca in passing.Luca should not hold such an important position in Queenie’s heart.Queenie heaved a sigh, shook her head, and said, “Luca isn’t that kind of person. She’ll try her best to help you since she’s promised to help.”“How can you be so sure about that?” Leia could not help but feel jealous.How long had Luca stayed in A City? What did Luca do to make Quee
Queenie waited until after the maid finished dividing Leia’s medicine to call Jack. She decided to tell him about her decision.Although it was a Saturday, Jack still had to work overtime.She had to tell him in advance that Leia was coming home to stay for the night so that he would not put on a long face after realizing that Leia was there when he returned.People tended to be sensitive when they were sick. Leia’s condition was already bad to begin with, and now Jack’s blood pressure was not looking too good either. Hence, she did not want to see the father and daughter quarrel.Queenie waited for quite some time, but Jack did not pick up.Then, she recalled that Jack mentioned that he had a meeting to attend today before he left.Queenie guessed that Jack was in the meeting right now and his phone was muted, which was why he could not answer.Therefore, she left him a short message. By the time the message was sent, the maid finished packing two days’ worth of medicine for Le
After listening to what he had to say, Luca still could not comprehend why Matysh was so desperate for her.There were many better-looking women out there with nicer bodies than her, yet he still wasted so much time and effort on her.Luke had to be on guard at all times to prevent him from getting his hands on her, and the same went for her. She had to be on alert every time she went out in case she fell into Matysh’s hands.The scariest part was that she had no idea when Matysh would make a move.“Maybe they’ll make a move tomorrow,” Luke guessed as Matysh was not the type to be patient.According to Matysh, Luca was the only woman he could not get his hands on even after plotting for so long.Luke had a gloomy look on his face. Luca was his.She was his woman, so there was no way he would let him have her.“So, tomorrow…” Luca frowned. If he was going to make a move, should she go or not?If she decided not to go, hiding in the mansion was not the way to go either as she st
“In that case, we should have a nice meal tomorrow. We can’t slight Luca,” said Jack.He favored Luca, but Queenie thought that he was nice to Luca in Leia’s interest.“I know. Don’t worry about it. I’ve informed the supermarket regarding the ingredients. They’ll send someone over first thing in the morning, and I’ve asked for the freshest,” said Queenie. The supermarket near their place had a delivery service, so it was convenient for them.“Okay, send Leia back after the meal,” said Jack as he picked up his briefcase.“Oh, okay.” Queenie’s heart ached upon seeing how Jack was unwilling to let Leia stay.She was then reminded of the old days.When Leia was a popular celebrity, they would look forward to Leia coming back to have a meal with them during the New Year holidays.At that time, Jack thought highly of Leia. Even though he did not like the idea of her entering the entertainment industry, he still silently supported her from afar.However, it seemed like Jack really hat
After Rain ended the conversation, Warren asked all of a sudden, “Ms. Rain, are you nervous?”Rain was caught off guard, so she just blinked. “Nervous about what?”“I’ve been working with you and Mr. Gale for so long, and it’s the first time where my mission is to protect someone, so I’m a little nervous,” said Warren.When he was driving Luca to places, all he had to do was check his surroundings, so he was not nervous about it at all.Now, the situation was different. The meeting last night made him anxious about what could go wrong and potentially put Luca’s life in danger.Although he had good driving skills, he was still nervous about protecting the woman Luke cared about most.Rain shook her head and leaned forward to pat his shoulder. “Don’t be nervous. Believe in yourself. Your driving skills are the best on our team. Just drive like you normally do and leave the rest to us.”Warren nodded, and he seemed to calm down a little after Rain reassured him.“By the way, do yo
When Queenie ended the call, Leia was eager to know what she said. “Mom, is she coming?”“She’s almost here,” said Queenie. Then, she proceeded to frown and nag at her when she recalled what Leia said earlier. “Leia, you shouldn’t say the things you said just now in front of her. You’re asking someone for a favor right now, so don’t say those things.”They had been waiting in the living room for some time, but Luca had yet to arrive, so Leia began to suspect that Luca made an empty promise to Queenie.Thus, she kept badmouthing Luca.Finally, Queenie had to call Luca to confirm after Leia urged her to.Leia grunted and criticized her, “How pretentious of her. Do you really think she wants to help me? She’s just doing it to please you and dad because it might be beneficial to her in the future.” Queenie went pale and looked toward the stairway. Fortunately, Jack was not coming downstairs. He would have thrown a fit if he heard that come out of her mouth.Ever since Luca saved he
"Are you here to wait for Ms. Craw too?" the maid smiled and said. She glanced at the time and presumed that Luca should be arriving soon.Leia did not respond to her and just stomped her feet on the side. She then took out her phone and called Mandy, "I've opened the backdoor. It's covered but not locked. Make sure the men pretend to hurt me when they come in. I don't want Luke to suspect anything after he sees the surveillance footage.""Will do," Mandy replied."Also, come in only after I send you some numbers. I’ll connect to the surveillance system at home and delete the footage of me opening the door," Leia said. She was familiar with doing this sort of thing because of Wayne Blatt."You’re asking for so much but okay." Mandy could not help but complain.Leia lowered her gaze and deleted all of their chats. After that, she glanced at the time before she exhaled hot air and complained, "Why is she taking so long?""It’s a Sunday. There might be a traffic jam on the road."
