Jack stood his ground with those words.
Luke knew what he meant. Queenie was probably going to try and talk to him about Leia.
Although Queenie realized that Leia had crossed the line, she still adored her.
Seeing Leia hurt must have wavered her.
Luke and Jack walked to the door of the custodial ward.
Queenie was leaning on the wall while looking inside.
The door of the custodial ward was made out of metal, and there was only one tiny eye-level window to see the inside.
At that moment, Queenie was not allowed to go in and check on Leia, so she could only tiptoe to see what was going on inside with a worried look on her face.
“Mom, you're looking for me?” Luke walked over and saw how worried Queenie looked, which further convinced him that Queenie was going to want to help Leia.
However, Jack said that Leia had to go to jail and pay for what she had done.
Luke had no intention of showing mercy.
“Luke, can you do me a favor?” Queenie stood up straight as she was starting to feel better after finally calming down.
“Just say it.” Luke did not agree, nor did he refuse. He just wanted to hear what she wanted to say first.
“I want to go inside to see Leia. Can you get the police to agree?” Queenie bit her lip as she spoke hesitantly.
According to the law, family members were not allowed in custodial wards.
She had mentioned it to Jack before too, but he rejected her, saying that it would affect his political activities.
In fact, the police had already given them special permission to visit the hospital.
Besides, Leia’s identity documents were still in the Norman Residence when she was first treated. Doctors were not supposed to treat patients without any identification.
Queenie knew that Jack could not go against the law because of his position, so she pinned her hopes on Luke.
He held significant power in A City, so the police department might agree with him.
“That’s not allowed, so even if I talk to them, they won’t agree to it. The doctor said that she’s in stable condition and there’s a policewoman taking care of her in there too, so you can rest assured. If anything goes wrong, the doctor will be here,” Luke comforted Queenie.
He could not make the police bend the rules.
Plus, this situation was directly related to Jack.
Luke saw the disappointment on Queenie’s face, and when he looked toward the door, he said, “She’s not an ordinary person. If someone finds out they let you in, it won’t just be me abusing my power but Dad too…”
He stopped there.
Queenie understood what he was trying to say. If she really insisted on visiting Leia, it would not look good for Jack.
She nodded without saying anything more.
Luke saw the doctor walk out while taking off his mask, so he went up to ask him, “How is she doing?”
“The patient has woken up, and the wound has been bandaged. For now, she’ll be fine, but we’ll only know her vital signs after doing a check-up tomorrow.” The doctor dared not guarantee that Leia was fine.
After all, someone might be fine on the day they hit their head, but it was common for hemorrhages to occur after a day or two.
The doctor said that as a precaution.
Queenie’s peace of mind was disrupted after hearing what the doctor had to say. “Doctor, are you saying that Leia might be in danger?”
The doctor frowned as she seemed to have read into his words too much.
“Mrs. Norman, I don’t know the specifics, but she won’t be in danger. Let her stay in the hospital for a while, and I’ll do a check-up on her tomorrow.” That was all he could say.
