"Because Daddy said that the family is not peaceful now and it''ll affect our quality of life. That''s why we
moved out. It''s not just us. Even Uncle and his family are moving out," Rainie said.
Queenie knew that this was because of Allison''s return.
Kids would not tell lies, especially a little girl like Rainie.
Queenie nodded, indicating that she understood. With a gentle smile, she said, "Alright, Rainie, you
can go upstairs to y."
"Alright, Grandma." Rainie got up and headed upstairs with little steps.
Queenie''s heart faltered when she saw the child''s back. ''If only Bianca was in the country. If she was
around, the family would be a happy family.''
Luca stood in Jack''s study and watched him search for his oil paintings in the collection rack. She did
not say a word.
Apart from loving to drink while socializing, his other hobby was collecting oil paintings.
However, due to his status, he did not reveal this hobby of his.
"Oh, Luca. I should apologize for the things that have been happeningtely." Jack took out an oil
painting and ced it on the table. He apologized to Luca.
Luca looked at him, astonished. "I beg your pardon, Mr. Norman?"
"I''m talking about the blind date with Enoch," said Jack while taking off the cloth that was covering the
oil painting. "I learned about some of the things that happenedter on. Enoch has given you a lot of
trouble, hasn''t he?"
Luca nodded and did not hide it from him. "A little. Actually, it''s not that much trouble."
"Are you saying this only because you''re afraid I might punish him?" Jack asked. If a civil servant were
to be targeted by his superior, that would be the end of his career.
Luca shook her head. ''Why should I be afraid that Enoch will be punished?
''I didn''t do anything. Even if Enoch is really punished, what does it have anything to do with me?''
Luca was worried that Jack might tell Luke this so that he could avenge her.
"Back when I first introduced Enoch to you, it was because I thought that he was a decent guy. I didn''t
expect him to be such a burden. I got to know all of this through Mrs. Norman. It seems I owe you an
apology," Jack said. If he had known much sooner that Luca was Bianca, he would not have done such
a thing.
"I''m the one who should be med for this issue. If I had made myself clearer before this, none of
these things would''ve happened.” Luca shouldered all the me herself.
Jack shook his head. He changed the topic after realizing she did not me him and Queenie.
After putting down the oil painting, he called out to her, "Come, these are the oil paintings I recently
collected. Come take a look and give yourments on them."
Luca nodded with a smile.
While both of them were evaluating the oil paintings, Queenie knocked on the study''s door and came
in. She said to them, "The chef has prepared dinner. You guys maye down and have dinner."
Luca heard it and nodded. She turned around and noticed that Queenie''s expression was much better
now.
Jack kept the oil paintings and said, "Let''s go. Call the kids toe down and have dinner."
Queenie nodded and sighed silently when she saw both of them. It seemed that Jack had been treating
Luca better since two days ago.
The moment she entered the study, she had a feeling as though both of them were father and
daughter.
''What did Luca do?
''How did she make Jack change into another person?''
Queenie saw Luca walking to the yroom next door, and after calling out to the kids, they headed
downstairs together.
The three kids walked happily beside her. Queenie wanted to call the kids to go over to her side, but
when she opened her mouth, no words came out.
Luca was really close to the kids. If Queenie called out to them, it would make her seem ignorant.
After Luca and the kids apanied Jack and Queenie for dinner, they sat in the living room and had
tea.
After some time, Jack took out a photo album and said happily, "Luca, do you want to have a look at
the old photos of me and Mrs. Norman from when we were younger?"
Luca was curious about their past. After all, she was not by their side in the first two decades of her life.
She immediately nodded and said, "Sure. I would love to see them."
Jack ced the photo album in Luca''s hand. "This photo album contains all our memories, from the
time I got to know Mrs. Norman to when we got married. There are also photos from a few events that
happenedter on. They''re all photos of us. You can slowly go through the album."
Queenie saw Jack passing the photo album to Luca. Indeed, that album contained all their photos
together.
She had a habit of collecting photos of herself and Jack to keep as memories. As for the other album, it
contained photos of them and Leia.
It was Bianca that Queenie did not get the opportunity to create a photo album for.
Luca opened the photo album, and the first photo in it was a photo of Queenie and Jack when they
were young.
Both Queenie and Jack were wearing the most fashionable clothes in the 70s.
Tommy was sitting beside her. He pointed at the photo and asked, "So this is grandpa and grandma
when they were young?"
"Yeah," Luca answered.
Tommy praised, "Grandma is so pretty, and Grandpa is so cool!"
Jack was thrilled at the child''s praise andughed. "Oh Tommy, you''re so good with your words."
Luca smiled at Tommy upon seeing how sweet of a talker he was before flipping to the next page.
"When was this taken?"
She pointed at one of the photos and asked.
Queenie took a nce, then looked at Jack.
Jack was looking at her as well. "You''re the one who arranged these photos. Why don''t you exin?”
Queenie then said, "This was when Jack was about to propose to me. He brought me to a park. He
had nned the proposal with his colleagues. In the photos after that, you can see when the proposal
took ce."

Luca nodded and said, "I didn''t expect Mr. Norman to have nned a proposal."
Jack scratched the back of his head, feeling embarrassed. Back then, he was indeed very careless but
was fortunate enough to have his colleagues remind him. Queenie was not one of those conservative
women but a celebrity. If he wanted to increase his chances of a sessful proposal, he had to make
sure the proposal was trendy.
Hence, with the help of his colleagues, he nned a proposal.
"It was all because I was afraid Queenie might not agree to the proposal if I did it casually," said Jack.
As Jack spoke, Queenie began to recall the past. At that time, she never expected the future to turn out
like this.
She then said while feeling shy, "You were the one who nned the proposal. I didn''t ask for it!"
"Yes, it''s all because you deserve the best." Jack nodded. He said the sweetest words in front of the
kids.
Luca smiled, and the sound of the kids''ughter was heard.
"The kids are still here." Queenie did not expect Jack to say such a thing in front of the kids just to coax
her.
"It''s alright. Today is our wedding anniversary. Sweet talk is important to show them how good their
grandparents'' rtionship is," Jack said while looking at Luca, who was still flipping the pages of the
album to look at more photos.
