Jack agreed.
No matter how long this adopted daughter had stayed by their side, she would never be a good daughter. As such, he had no problem with Luke wanting to teach Leia a lesson on behalf of Luca.
Nevertheless, Queenie was soft-hearted, so he kept this part from her.
"I trust Luke, but you have to tell him not to be too rough with her. Leia is a girl, after all," Queenie frowned from worry that Luke would be too harsh on Leia.
"He knows what he’s doing. You don't need to worry. Promise me you’ll stay home tomorrow and not go to the hospital," Jack said. He did not want Queenie to be in contact and suffer with hooligans like Dexter.
"Mm." Queenie nodded, but she was still a little worried.
"Luke did so much for Bea's sake. He doesn't want to see Bea worry about us, so he’ll be mindful," Jack added.
Leia would get to stay alive. As long as that was the case, he did not care about the means used to get there.
They had done everything for Leia after they adopted her from the orphanage.
…
In the villa.
After Luca put the kids to sleep, she waited in the living room for Luke to come back.
She was worried that Dexter would not agree to their proposal.
After all, Leia was not doing well. If it dragged on, not only would her life be in danger but it would also drag Queenie down.
There was a sound of a car parking outside the house.
Luca stood up immediately and looked out of the house through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Luke had returned.
She walked into the kitchen, brought out a glass of warm water, and waited at the entrance.
When Luke opened the door and walked in, there was some cold wind. Luca was not wearing very thick clothes, so she shivered instantly.
"Why are you standing here?" Seeing this, he quickly closed the door. The cold wind was blocked.
"Drink some warm water." Luca handed the water over. The wind was stronger at night, so she knew that it must be cold outside since a snowstorm was coming.
Luke took off his coat, took the water glass in her hand, and drank it.
He finished the glass of water, and the cold he felt from being outside was dispelled immediately.
"Thank you," Luke said.
Luca took the empty cup in his hand, struggled for a moment, and then asked, "Well, did you find Dexter?"
"We found him and finalized the price. I’ll pay first, so no one will be able to trace it back to the Norman family," Luke said as he put on his slippers.
His few simple words dispelled all the doubts in Luca's heart.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
"I’m glad to hear that," Luca said. Although Dexter may not be able to successfully match with Leia, at least there was hope.
Queenie needed some hope that Leia could stay alive.
Luke took the initiative to pay the money to avoid Jack being caught by his political opponents.
She was grateful for what he had done for them.
"Tomorrow, Dexter will go to the hospital for a check-up." Luke took her hand and walked into the house. "Don't worry, Johann will notify me as soon as the result comes. If it’s a match, he’ll be hospitalized immediately. The operation can start as soon as possible."
"Okay." Luca wanted to cry.
She could not stay by his side with her real identity, but he had done so much for her parents.
Luca counted her lucky stars that she had met Luke.
Luke took the cup from her hand, glanced at the time, and said, "It's getting late. Let’s go to bed."
"You..." Luca's face blushed slightly.
The more Luca thought about it, the more guilt she felt toward Luke. She could not help but turn to her side and lie face-to-face with him.
Luke pulled her into his arms.
Luca did not struggle. It was the first time she was awake when she was hugged into his arms. Even his slender legs were covering hers.
The two bodies were close to each other, and Luke regretted it instantly...
Even though they had their pajamas on, he could feel that the body in front of him was curvaceous and soft...
She was no other woman. She was Bianca...
Even with a different face, she was still the love of his life, Bianca.
No one but Bianca could arouse his deep desire...
"Luca..." Luke's voice was hoarse, and he sounded helpless.
"Huh?" Luca's voice was also hoarse. The cells of her body quickly captured the subtle seduction that was happening between their two bodies.
"I can't help myself…" Luke made his desire for her clear.
Luca's face was flushed. She immediately put up some distance between them.
"I can't!" she said as she turned her back to him.
"I know." Luke hugged her and pressed his chest against her back. It was better compared to face-to-face. At least with his back to her, he could control himself. "I'm titillated."
"Then… what do you want me to do about it?" Luca bit her lower lip and buried half of her face in the blanket, her voice becoming muffled.
"Don't move. Go to sleep," Luke said as he wrapped his arms around her waist. He ordered himself to ignore the pain in his lower body and close his eyes.
Luca did not dare to move and closed her eyes obediently.
Before she fell asleep, she felt Luke's hand move up slightly.
