“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 ce 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 popr celebrity, they would look forward to Leiaing 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 hated Leia now.


    "Also, let me know when she gets better." Jack had no intention of knowing about Leia''s condition in


    detail.


    "Why?" Queenie asked curiously.


    "She''s not getting any younger. Look at Bea. She''s only a few years older than her, but she already has


    three kids. When she gets better, arrange some dates for her," said Jack. He did not want to raise Leia


    for the rest of his life.


    He would not mind raising the old Leia forever if she did not get married.


    However, after finding out about her true nature, Jack just wanted her to stay away so that she would


    not harm Queenie.


    Besides, someone who imed to love him and his family would not tamper with the supplements and


    cause chronic poisoning to their own mother.


    "Dates?" Queenie recalled Leia''s previous scandal with Brody and Wayne. It had caused public


    outrage. Basically, Leia had be theughing stock of high society.


    They just did notugh in her face because of Luke.


    She was afraid that it would be hard to marry Leia off through arranged dates...


    "Do you have anyone in mind?" she asked.


    "All that crap she did before has caused amotion in A City, so it definitely won''t be someone from


    A City," said Jack. Even an average family in A City would not want a daughter-inw like Leia, so he


    felt apprehensive about matchmaking her with someone in A City.


    He was worried that the other party would do so just for his power and influence, so he had no intention


    of matchmaking her with someone local.


    "That''s what I thought, dear. If it doesn''t work out, just let Leia stay with us. We have enough resources


    to raise her in this lifetime anyway." Queenie was worried that Leia would suffer if she got married off.


    Those who came from well-off families would definitely look down on Leia''s past.


    As for the middle-ss families, Leia''s spending habits and ill health would only burden the other


    family.


    Plus, Queenie was not willing to let Leia live a harsh life.


    "She''s not a kid anymore. If she''s not capable of earning a living for herself, is she not capable of


    marrying someone too? If people outside of this city won''t do either, then let''s find a foreigner," Jack


    said with a frown. He intended to let Leia live far away from home so that she would no longer disturb


    their peaceful life again.


    It was not that he had nopassion but that Leia was no longer worthy of being treated as family.


    "No way. If she gets married to someone outside of the city, we won''t know what troubles she might


    face and we won''t be able to be there for her first thing. As for foreigners, do you think she can get


    married to someone overseas with your status?"

    "As long as she''s under Dexter''s custody." Jack had thought it through.


    Leia''s identity was indeed special. If she could not leave the country, she could do so by cutting ties


    with the Norman family and returning to Dexter.


    "That''s not a good idea. Dexter is..." Queenie was not willing to let Dexter get custody of Leia.


    "I''m not asking her to take care of Dexter, nor am I asking Dexter to take care of her. I''m just giving him


    custody of Leia so that it''ll be easier for her to get married overseas." Jack was unwilling to budge.


    "Hm. Let''s not talk about this first. Let''s wait until Leia gets better." Queenie did not want Leia to move


    far away, so she put off the topic for now.


    She intended to persuade Jack when he was in a better mood. "It''s gettingte. Go sleep."


    The conversation between the two was overheard by Leia, who was standing in the corner of the stairs.


    She felt thirsty in the middle of her sleep and came downstairs to grab a ss of water.


    She did not expect to hear the conversation between Jack and Queenie.


    Get married? Overseas? Give Dexter custody?


    What a great father he was.


    He might not be her birth father, but how could he send her away so easily?


    Leia turned around and tiptoed back upstairs, then she locked herself in her room. Her eyes took on a


    sinister look. Since Jack was so heartless, he should not me her for being ungrateful.


    He was more attentive toward Lucapared to the daughter he had raised for more than 20 years.


    Was he not afraid that others wouldugh at him if they found out?


    If that was the case, there was no need for her to be considerate.


    The most important thing was for her to have the Norman family in her hands.


    She had nothing to lose anyway, so what was she afraid of?


    Leia''s lips curled upward as she read her conversation with Mandy. If their interception did not work


    out, they may need her help, so she might as well get this over with.


    Leia typed in the chat: [Since you''re breaking into the Norman Residence anyway, please take care of


    Jack and Queenie as well. If they''re not dead, at least scare them out of their wits.]


    Mandy was still awake, so when she saw the message, she replied: [You want to mess with your


    parents?]


    Leia said ruthlessly: [Parents? They don''t deserve to be called that.]


    Mandy confirmed with her: [You''re heartless. They''ve raised you for so many years even though you''re


    not blood-rted. Are you sure about this?]


    She knew that all of Leia''s expenses were paid by Jack.


    Yet, Leia wanted to get rid of Jack and Queenie, which she was surprised to hear.


    [I''m sure.] Leia sent those two words to her without hesitation.


    After a while, Mandy replied: [I''ve asked Mr. Matysh, and he agreed. But if any ident happens, you


    can''t me him.]


    [If any ident does happen, I''d have to thank him.] Leia smiled sinisterly.


    The next day.


    Warren''s car pulled up in front of the mansion on time, and Rain was sitting in the backseat waiting for


    Luca.


    She fiddled with her earphones and said, "I''m picking up Ms. Craw, and we''ll leave from Exit A of the


    neighborhood. Don''t forget to follow us."


    Warren looked at Rain from the rearview mirror. They had an urgent meeting at midnight as there was


    a high chance that Matysh would make a move today, so everyone was being extra serious.


    Moreover, the order that Luke gave was that Matysh could noty a finger on Luca.
