Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2577

“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 place 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 popular celebrity, they would look forward to Leia coming 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 claimed 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 become the laughing stock of high society.

They just did not laugh 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 a commotion 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-in-law 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-class 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 no compassion 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.
