Another nurse helped Leia to pack the things on the bedside table. These would be taken to be disinfected later.Leia noticed that the nurses did not answer her. Instead, they began to take her stuff away. She immediately said, “You have no right to touch my stuff!”“These belong to the hospital,” said the head nurse. The water bottle and some other items belonged to the hospital. They were for the patients in the VIP wards. The water bottles downstairs were not the same design.“I’m not moving.” Leia insisted. The head nurse did not know if she should be laughing or crying when she saw Leia behaving like this. She had no choice but to explain to her, “Ms. Norman, Mr. Norman is the one who’s paying for your medical expenses. Now, he’s requesting to transfer you to a normal ward. We have no choice but to follow his instructions.”"Don't touch anything. I'm calling my Dad," said Leia. She was disgusted at the thought of moving downstairs. She was a person with high social status. W
“I don’t…” Leia still wanted to resist as the thought of living downstairs made her feel ashamed.Moreover, she was the talk of the town. If she went downstairs, she would be surrounded by spectators.Leia wanted to plead with Jack.“That’s the final decision, and don’t disturb your father. He’ll get even angrier if you look for him now. Just focus on recovering in the hospital.” After Queenie finished speaking, she hung up.She did not care if Leia would go to her grandparents.Anyway, the old master was pissed after seeing the video anyway.If Leia knew better, she would not bother the two old people and bring about her own destruction.In the hospital ward.Leia lay down and tossed her phone aside.After listening to her long conversation with Queenie without interrupting, the nurse finally said, “Pack up and we’ll help you move downstairs.”“Don’t touch me.” Leia widened her eyes and glared at the nurse in front of her.The nurse was unfazed and said, “Ms. Norman, please
A mother would always worry about her child, and Queenie was no exception.It was just that Leia made her worry too much.When Leia was still in the entertainment industry, Queenie constantly used her connections in the industry to help develop her career so that she would not sell herself to get resources like most celebrities.However, Leia still went astray and did everything she could to get what did not belong to her.In the end, she even drugged Queenie to take revenge on her.At the thought of this, Queenie felt that the bitterness in her mouth could never compare to the bitterness in her heart.“Mrs. Norman, is the medicine really bitter?” The maid noticed her frown and asked worriedly.“It’s fine.” After the pills had disintegrated under her tongue, Queenie drank a big glass of water.The maid brought over candy and said, “Mrs. Norman, have some candy.”Queenie shook her head and glanced out the window to see that it had stopped snowing. Then, she asked, “How many mor
In the past, all of Percy’s clothes were custom-made.However, he did not have the time to customize his clothes as he was busy with work this year, so Nina decided to pick out some clothes for him at the mall for New Year’s.Besides, wearing new clothes in the new year was good luck for the year ahead.“Mr. Mallory is so lucky to have a girlfriend like you,” Queenie said with a smile. Nina was Bianca’s best friend. Regardless of what the news reports say, she still admired the candid person in front of her.“Aunt Queenie, it seems like you’ve bought quite some stuff. Did you get clothes for Mr. Norman and Ms. Norman?” Nina noticed that the salesperson beside her was already holding a bunch of clothes.Some even had bright colors. Although she could not see the style, she guessed that some were meant for someone younger.Queenie probably bought the clothes for Leia.Bianca had gone through so much because of Leia, and Leia had done so much to hurt Queenie and Jack, yet Queenie s
Queenie recalled that Leia did not like taking the doctor’s advice either, so she shook her head in distress.“Aunt Queenie, what’s wrong?” Nina said with concern.“Nothing, I just hope that everything will get better after the new year,” Queenie expressed her wishes.Although Nina loathed Leia to the point that she would not even pity her if she were to die, Queenie would be sad if Leia died. Bianca cared the most about her biological mother, so she still comforted her, “Don’t worry, Ms. Norman will be able to recover and be discharged soon. Plus, there’s still Luca. She’s great at treating patients, so she can help Ms. Norman anytime.”Queenie could no longer smile at the mention of this.After seeing the smile on her face disappear, Nina realized that she had said the wrong thing, so she asked with caution, “Aunt Queenie, did I say something wrong?”Queenie shook her head and frowned as she told Nina about last night’s events.Although Luca had sent her a message afterward sa
Queenie was still hesitant because after what Luca had done for their family, they should be the ones thanking her.Now, it was the other way around, which was inappropriate.After noticing Queenie’s hesitation, Luca said, “Aunt Queenie, this is just a token of appreciation. You know there’s no hidden meaning to it. Since it’s New Year’s, I wanted to gift you two some things to show my gratitude.”Nina also said, “She’s right, Aunt Queenie. If it makes you uncomfortable, you can just gift Luca an envelope with money when the new year is here.”Queenie looked at Luca with her lips slightly open as she nodded. “Okay. Thank you, Luca.”“You’re welcome, Aunt Queenie.” Luca smiled faintly after Queenie accepted the gifts.Queenie saw that Luca was not angry in the slightest bit. She even gifted her a whole bunch of things. It would be rude of her to continue dwelling on what had happened yesterday.Her heart softened after seeing Luca’s smiling face as if the bitterness in her heart
Jack put down his utensils in his hands and looked at Queenie.He was the only Norman family member who knew that Luca was Bianca. As such, Queenie would not be able to understand a lot of what he was talking about."We’ll just get Luca something for New Year’s," Jack said. After all, Luca was their daughter. It was normal to give presents to one’s kids during the new year.That was the best blessing parents could give to their children during the festivities."Would it seem too tacky?" Queenie was hesitant. Although it was common for elders to give gifts to juniors, Luca did not seem like the kind who would get them so many gifts to get something in return from them.On top of that, she heard from Luke that Luca grew up abroad with her mother.They might not practice the same traditions, she was worried that it might seem too casual if she went to get a return gift. "That's the most sincere blessing we can give to someone. How can it be tacky?" Jack picked up his fork and cont
As he listened to Queenie’s chatter, Jack picked up the shirt and put it on. "It’s not only the right size, but it’s also the right color and style. I’ll wear this on the first day of the new year!"Queenie noticed how happy Jack seemed.Leia had also bought a lot of clothes for the two of them before.Jack would always react calmly to Leia’s gifts. He had never been so happy as when he received gifts from Luca. Luca was better at picking clothes than Leia. The size, style, and color of the clothes she bought were suitable for their age. However, at this moment, Jack looked as happy as a father receiving a carefully selected gift from his daughter.Jack carefully put his clothes on the sofa, picked up the other set of clothes, and placed it on Queenie. "Mm, they’re perfect for you. This color is so festive. It’s suitable to wear during the new year. We’ll wear these on the first day of the new year.""Okay, you can do whatever you want." Queenie went along with his wishes. "Dear
