After Madam Mallory hung up the call, her phone rang again.
She answered, her tone full of impatience, "What's the matter?"
"Madam, something terrible has happened! Young Master Pierre woke up and is twitching from the pain!" The nurse on the other end of the call was flustered. Madam Mallory could hear Pierre's wailing through the call.
Madam Mallory's complacent mood was instantly disturbed. She quickly returned to the elevator and went upstairs. "Inform the doctor immediately. I’ll come now."
...
After Queenie left the hospital, she was still thinking about what Madam Mallory had said. She felt uneasy.
The doubts that had been suppressed before were now springing up like bamboo shoots after rain.
She did not want to doubt them, but she could not help it. She called Jack and said, "Dear, are you in the office now?"
"Yeah, I'm still processing some documents. What's wrong?" Jack noticed that his wife's tone was off. He quickly asked, "Did Leia do something wrong again?"
Leia kept trying to buy organs from other sources but was stopped by the people arranged by him and Luke.
As such, Norman Residence had not been peaceful.
"It's not Leia. Can I go over now?" Queenie asked.
"Come," Jack listened to her uneasy tone and did not dare to let her go home alone.
Queenie’s health was fine, but because of Leia, she had neurasthenia. The doctor's advice was for her to get more rest and the company of her family.
With his consent, Queenie got into the car and asked the driver to take her to the provincial office.
When she walked into Jack's office, Jack was talking business with someone on the phone. When he saw Queenie walk in, he motioned to her.
Queenie nodded knowingly. She sat on the sofa beside her and waited.
Jack continued to talk with the person on the other end of the phone.
The assistant secretary came in with a cup of tea and said softly, "Madam, this is your tea."
"Thank you." Queenie took it. She was elegant and did not lose Jack's face. She picked up the teacup, took a sip, and waited quietly.
Jack was talking to others about urban planning and some important events that would be held in A City in the coming month.
Queenie listened and saw how busy he was.
She felt that she should not bother Jack because of Luke and Luca.
While Queenie thought about it, Jack was done with the work call.
Jack asked with concern when he noticed how upset his wife looked. "What's wrong? Why do you look so bitter?"
"Nothing..." Queenie smiled slowly, trying to ease the ugly expression on her face. She had made up her mind not to tell him her doubts.
She could investigate this matter on her own.
"You have worries written all over your face. How can you be okay?" Although Jack was an alpha male, they had been together for decades. He was thoughtful when he needed to be, especially when facing Queenie.
He sat beside her, sighed, and took her hand. "What happened?"
