“Okay, stop walking. Sit down and have some bread." Jack took the bag from Luke and put it aside. He


    grabbed Queenie''s hand, almost squeezing it. He asked her to sit down on the bench.


    Queenie''s face was pale white, and there was a worried look on her face. "I''m not hungry. Go ahead."


    "You haven''t eaten anything since morning. How are you going to have any energy if you don''t eat


    now?" Jack frowned unhappily. He did not say a word after everything she had done for Leia.


    However, Jack could not help but speak in a stern voice when he saw her not eating anything just


    because she was worried about Leia.


    The reason Jack allowed Leia to stay in his house was only that he had taken this situation into


    consideration. Queenie needed a daughter by her side tofort her anxiety.


    However, he did not expect that Leia could be such a hassle.


    "I..." Queenie looked at the bread and milk. Jack was already mad at her.


    Jack opened the bread packaging and said in a serious tone, "Eat it."


    Luca went along with him and said, "Mrs. Norman, you won''t have the energy to take care of Ms.


    Normanter if you don''t eat something. She needs your attentive care after she gets the surgery. At


    least eat something. If you don''t eat anything, you''ll feel dizzy once you get busy due to low blood


    sugar. Should the caretaker look after you or Ms. Norman then?"


    "Alright, I''ll eat some," Queenie had no appetite as she was worried. She did not feel hungry.


    However, what Luca said made sense. She had to take care of herself first to look after Leia.


    Queenie took the bread and milk from Jack and took a nibble.


    Queenie ate half of the bread and could no longer eat anymore. She said, "I''m done."


    Her appetite was usually small. Jack did not ask her to eat more. He took her bread and finished the


    rest of it for her.


    Luca shot a nce at Luke. He did not eat much. He was probably not used to it.


    Luke only took a bite or two of the bread. Luca said in a soft voice, "Mr. Crawford, there''s a restaurant


    near the hospital. Why don''t you have lunch there?"


    "No, thank you. I''m not hungry," Luke no longer forced himself to eat the bread and threw the bread into


    the trash bin.


    He had gotten used to eating Luca''s yummy home-cooked food. The bread was tasteless to him. It was


    hard for him to swallow it.


    "But.”


    Luke interrupted her, "I ate a lot for breakfast. That''s why I''m not hungry."


    Luca did not say anything more.


    Luke often skipped meals when he was busy with work. Hence, it was normal for him.


    Another half an hour had passed.


    Johann finally walked out of the operating room when Queenie was worried sick.


    "Dr. Park, how''s Leia?" Queenie was the first one to charge toward him and ask about Leia''s situation.


    Even though Johann was wearing a mask, Queenie''s eyes were sharp enough to recognize him.


    "The surgery is a sess, but she''s too weak. We''ll transfer her to the ICU for a night. If there''s


    nothing wrong with her tomorrow, we''ll transfer her back to the ordinary ward," said Johann.


    Luca let out a sigh of relief when she heard that the surgery went smoothly.


    Queenie was thrilled. Tears welled up in her eyes as she confirmed with him again, "Is Leia really


    okay?"


    "The surgery went well so far. Besides, nothing happened during the surgery, but she has to be under


    medical observation for some time. We''ll need to see if she develops anyplications after the


    surgery and whether or not her body can ept the liver. If her body doesn''t reject the transnt, she''ll


    be discharged from the hospital and allowed to go back home to rest," Johann provided a detailed


    exnation to her.


    "Doesn''t that mean Leia might still be in danger..." Queenie''s brows furrowed again after relieving them.


    "This is a situation that might ur to every patient. The hospital will keep her under observation, and


    treatments will be given to her based on different situations. So, don''t worry about that." Johann looked


    at it from an objective point of view and exined to her what the situation was now.


    "Then, can I see Leia now?" Queenie was upset. She thought everything would be fine after the


    surgery.


    She did not expect there were so many follow-ups that they had to pay attention to after the surgery.


    She was truly worried that Leia would not be able to survive this.


    "Sure, but you have only five minutes. Only one person is allowed to enter the ward. The ICU ward is


    on your left. Tell the nurse at the entrance and she''ll guide you," Johann pointed in the left direction.


    "Okay. Thank you, Dr. Park," Queenie immediately thanked him.


    "Thank you." Jack, who was standing beside her, expressed his gratitude to Johann too.


    "It''s my job." Johann returned to the operating room after that. He had not taken off the surgical gown


    on him. There were some post-surgery documents that he needed to sign and deal with.


    "Dear, let''s go and see Leia," said Queenie.


    "Okay." Jack helped Queenie up and they walked toward the ICU ward.


    "Then, we." Luca turned to look at Luke. She was not nning to visit Leia. She only showed up here


    today just because she was worried about Queenie.


    "Let''s go," said Luke.


    "Okay," Luke walked next to Luke. The two of them followed behind Jack and Queenie.


    Queenie put on the istion gown to take a look at Leia''s situation.

    Jack stood at the entrance waiting for her. He would be the next one who was going in. He turned


    around and shot a nce at Luke and Luca. He asked, "Are you going in?"


    "No," Luke was answering on behalf of Luca when he was answering his question.


    Jack nodded without saying another word.


    Although he knew Luca''s true identity was Bianca, he did not expect there to be any sisterhood


    between Luca and Leia.


    After all, there were hardly any younger sisters who would harm and set their elder sisters up.


    Queenie was reluctant toe out of the ICU ward when she saw how weak Leia was. The nurse


    eventually asked her to leave. Only then did she weep and walk out of the ward. "Leia looks so pale.


    She''s still so young. Why does she have to go through this..."


    Luca and Luke exchanged nces with each other.


    Was Leia going through a lot?


    Luca thought it was nothing.


    Leia was initially healthy. She was the one who shot herself in the foot. Her body was just exhausted


    from carrying the burden and she ended up in such a condition today.


    Hence, she did it to herself. No one made her do this, and it was not God who let her suffer this. She


    brought everything upon herself.


    The so-called suffering was the pain that one did not deserve to bear.


    Therefore, Leia''s case was not one of them.


    Jack looked at Queenie, tears streaming down her pale-white face. It was as though she would pass


    out at any time. The look on his face was awful. He had no choice but to ask Luke and Luca, "Please


    help me look after her."


    "Don''t worry, Mr. Norman," replied Luca as she helped Queenie to take off the istion gown on her.


    Jack nodded and walked into the ward with the istion gown on him.


    He stood at Leia''s bedside and nced at her. The look on his face was indifferent. There was no sad


    expression on his face. His expression was as stern as a judge''s expression in the court. It was not an


    expression a father should have for his daughter.
