Chapter 1017 She Did Not Want Bianca to be the Winner
Queenie held Rainie's hand and smiled. "Are you sure? I thought that we're eating out because you're tired of my cooking."
Jack coughed lightly and said, "You did mention that you were craving bouillabaisse yesterday."
Bianca was warmed by her parents' interaction. "Didn't Leia come along with you?"
Queenie explained, "Leia is busy making preparations for her wedding, so she couldn't come along."
Bianca nodded in understanding. "Luke reserved a private room for us. Do you want to join us for dinner?" She invited them.
"Is it a business dinner? Then we shouldn't disturb you," Jack said. He gently pinched Tommy's face; he was very fond of his
youngest grandchild.
Bianca smiled and shook her head. "I wouldn't have brought the children along if it were a business dinner. It's just a normal
family dinner. You should join us."
Tommy was happy to see a bigger crowd around the dining table." Grandpa, Grandma, I'm also inviting you to join us!"
Jack and Queenie looked at each other and accepted the invitation." Alright, alright, let's have dinner together."
They sat down around the dining table in the private room. A while later, Luke came in.
Bianca had already informed him by a message that she had met her parents at the hotel and had invited them to join in for
dinner. That was why he was not too surprised.
"Dad, Mom," Luke greeted them and sat down next to Bianca.
"Where is Gordan?" Bianca asked. She thought that he would bring Gordan along.
"He went back to his hotel because he has some other business," Luke said. He did not tell her that he did not invite Gordan.
After all, the dinner was supposed to be a private family affair.
The children had been traumatized by the incident in Crawford Manow, especially Lanie. He might seem fine on the surface, but
he had fallen sick because of the shock.
Johann had told him that the family should spend more time together so that the children would recover faster.

"Who is Gordan?" Jack asked. He had never heard of that name.
"He's Luke's friend, and he's here to help with an investigation,” Bianca explained while pouring a drink for Luke.
"Is he here to investigate the break-in at Crawford Manor?" Jack asked. He had asked his friend at the police department about
the incident. The investigation was difficult because there were not enough leads.
That was why he could instantly guess that the investigation that Bianca had mentioned was about the break-in. i "Yes, Dad."
Bianca nodded and took a sip of tea.
"Did Old Master Crawford say anything about the incident?" Jack was very concerned about the incident. The crime rate in A
City was generally low, and the incident had created shockwaves.
After all, the Crawfords were quite prominent in A City. Now that a thief had broken into their mansion without leaving any traces
behind, the other citizens were worried about their safety, and sales of high-tech security systems had soared recently.
Luke took a sip of tea from his cup. Before he got off work, he and Gordan had reviewed the security footage again and found a
new lead.
"My grandfather has tasked me with the investigation," he replied.
"Let me know if you need any help," Jack said.
"Thank you, Dad," Luke said. He glanced at Bianca and took her hand that was under the table.
Queenie glanced at the couple and said, "We're a family now. You should let us know if you are faced with any difficulty. We
wouldn't have known that Luke's brother's daughter was in the hospital if Jack's colleague hadn't informed him." "I didn't want
you to worry," Bianca said. She figured that they were busy with Leia's wedding, and it was best not to disturb them.
Queenie shook her head in disapproval. "What should I do with you..."
Jack and Queenie had always thought that they owed Bianca, and so they wanted to help her as much as they could.
Queenie's phone rang. The call was from Leia. "Hello, Leia?" "Mom, where are you and Dad?" Leia asked.
"We're having dinner with Bianca. Why is it so noisy over there?" Queenie asked. Leia had told them that she would be going to
the wedding planner, but she sounded as though she was on a busy street.

Leia paused. 'Bianca again!' Instantly, she made herself sound aggrieved," Something happened to me, Mom. Can I go over?"
"What happened?" Queenie replied anxiously. She glanced at Luke and Bianca and did not answer Leia's question.
"Mom, Brody left me downtown. I'm so hungry. I haven't had dinner yet." Leia pretended to be pitiful. She did not want to see
Bianca, but it was a good opportunity.
"Did you and Brody have a fight?" Queenie said softly so that no one else heard her.
"I'm so tired and hungry, Mom. Can I go over?" Leia could tell that Queenie was reluctant and hated her forthat. Bianca might be
Queenie's daughter, but was she not her daughter too?
Was Queenie afraid that she might disrupt the harmony?
Bianca could see the hesitation on Queenie's face. "Is it Leia?"
Queenie nodded.
"She can join us for dinner if she's free," Bianca said, knowing Queenie's dilemma.
Queenie told Leia the address and to be careful on her way here. Then, she ended the call.
"Shouldn't she be at the wedding planner's?" Jack did not seem too pleased.
"She quarreled with Brody." Queenie gently held his arm, thinking that he was not happy because Leia had gotten herself
pregnant before the marriage.
"She's about to become a wife, yet she doesn't know how to control her temper.” Jack thought that it was all Leia's fault, even if
Brody might be the one in the wrong.
Luke and Bianca listened to their conversation and said nothing.
They knew what kind of person Leia was, but they did not want to shun her. After all, she had been the Norman daughter for
twenty years.
Queenie was unhappy when she heard what Jack had to say about Leia.
She was also responsible for Leia's attitude.

Half an hour later, Leia came into the private room. She looked at the harmonious scene jealously and instantly felt like an
outsider.
"Dad, Mom, Sis, Bro, good evening." She hid her true emotions and greeted them with a smile.
"Good evening." Bianca smiled and pointed at a vacant seat next to Queenie. "Please sit down."
Leia sat down at that seat. Luke was positioned right opposite her.
Her heart skipped a beat when she saw him.
What Luke had done to her had become a nightmare. Even though she had Brody now, she could not forget those emotions
when she had a crush on him.
It was impossible for her to be together with Luke, but she did not want Bianca to be the winner either.
