"Father-in-law." Luke nodded at him.
Luca also greeted Jack, "Hello, Uncle Jack. Long time no see."
"It's been a long time, Luca. If you're free, come visit me and your Aunt Queenie more often," Jack said. He knew there was a reason why Luca did not visit often.
Luke had told him about what happened to her in Russia.
As such, Jack knew that Luca was in danger all the time and could not acknowledge him and Queenie as her biological parents for some reason.
"Okay." Luca finished writing and handed the paper to the maid. "There you go."
"What's that?" When he saw that, Jack put down his briefcase and sat down near Luca.
"It's a few recipes for your diet and a prescription for Aunt Queenie to condition her body," Luca replied.
"Condition her body? What's wrong?" Jack became nervous. He and Luke asked Luca to come over to check on Queenie's pulse as an excuse. He did not expect that something would be wrong with Queenie’s body.
"It's nothing. I’ve been having a lot of dreams when I'm sleeping, so Luca checked my pulse and gave me a prescription," Queenie said to reassure Jack.
"Are you sure you’re okay?" Jack was still worried, so he looked at Luca and asked her.
"It's nothing. She just needs to condition her body and let go of her thoughts. Then she’ll naturally be able to sleep well." Luca nodded and smiled slightly. She was envious of her parents' relationship.
Her relationship with Luke had always been good. However, too many twists and turns had left them where they were now.
It was as though they were not meant to have a peaceful life.
Jack breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I’m glad to hear that."
Queenie's smile got bigger and bigger when she saw her husband’s nervous reaction. "I told you that I’m fine. My body is in tip-top shape."
"If all is well, you wouldn’t have to take herbs to condition your body. You still have to pay attention to your health." Jack disagreed with Queenie's statement.
Luca looked at her parents with envy.
Seeing this, Luke cleared his throat and said, "Father-in-law, can we step aside to talk?"
"You want to ask about the development in the western suburbs?" Jack knew what he wanted to talk about. He asked him to come over for dinner so that he could tell him more about what he wanted to know.
Nevertheless, even if the answer was given to him, it was up to Luke whether he could win the project.
Therefore, Jack was comfortable sharing the information. After all, he knew that Luke would not screw him over even if he knew the information.
“Mm." Luke nodded.
"Let’s talk in my study," Jack said. After all, the maid was still in the living room and their conversation should not be heard by outsiders.
"Okay." Luke stood up.
Jack stood up as well, handed the maid the bottle in his hand, and said, "Let the bottle breathe. We’ll drink it when we have dinner later."
"Got it, Mr. Norman." The maid took the wine and walked into the kitchen.
Luke followed Jack upstairs.
In the living room on the first floor, Luca and Queenie were the only ones left.
Luca knew that Queenie did not like her, but she could not help but make small talk. "Aunt Queenie, how’s Leia doing?"
