Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 3225 In That Fleeting Moment, It All Fell Into Place For Her

Jack was aware of Queenie's words. Thus, he dismissed the idea.

Luke and Luca went home together.

As soon as they walked into the living room, the three kids gathered around them.

Tommy, with his chubby cheeks puffed out, was about to start complaining when Luca pulled out some cookies made by Queenie. "Look what I brought for you!"

"Wow, cookies!" Tommy's eyes lit up, and he immediately forgot his complaints when he saw the cookies.

He reached out to grab one, but Luca held the cookies higher and said, "Your grandma made these."

"Ms. Luca, I want one, I want one," cried Tommy, jumping up and down, trying to get a cookie. However, no matter how high he jumped, he just could not reach them, making Lanie and Rainie laugh. "Tommy, can you stop being so greedy?"

"I want one." Tommy pouted his mouth.

"Didn't we just finish dinner? And you ate so much. Can you really eat more cookies?" Rainie bluntly exposed the truth.

"Of course, I can!" Tommy waved his hands. "I eat a lot, and if I eat more, I'll grow taller than you."

"I'm not worried about you growing tall. I'm worried you'll turn into a little fat boy," Rainie shot back. Then, she turned to look at Luca. "Ms. Luca, how are Grandma and Grandpa?"

"They're doing well. Don't just stand there. Come sit down and have some cookies." Luca thought that even though the kids had just had dinner, a couple of cookies would not hurt. "Okay!" The three kids sat down to enjoy the cookies.

Luca placed the cookies on the coffee table and let them help themselves.

Aunt Neile, who had been taking care of the kids, could get off work now that they were home.

After Aunt Neile left, Rainie came over and said, "Ms. Luca, when will you take us to Grandma and Grandpa's place? It feels like we haven't been there in a long time."

The last time they visited, Leia had already been discharged from the hospital but was not confined to Norman Residence, so the kids did not feel any tension. They had not visited during Leia's confinement.

"Alright, but doesn't Tommy have a competition this weekend?" Luca looked at her youngest sоп.

She remembered that Tommy's math competition was coming up.

Tommy nodded. "Yes, I do!"

"Then let's go next weekend. Tommy has his competition this weekend," replied Luca, not wanting to rush around too much.

Going to Queenie's place after Tommy's competition would be too hectic.

"Alright!" Tommy agreed.

Luke added, "Your grandpa is probably busy this weekend anyway."

Lanie looked at him curiously. "Dad, how do you know?"

"There's a big project bid coming up, so he'll probably be very busy," explained Luke. Even though Jack was not directly managing the project, whenever there was a large project bid, all departments were extremely busy.

Therefore, Jack would likely be very busy that weekend, so Luca's decision not to bring the kids over was the right one.

"I see." Lanie nodded and took a piece of cookie. Even though he did not have a sweet tooth, he always appreciated treats from his elders.

He would at least eat one or two, unlike his dad, who would not touch them at all.

"Grandma's homemade cookies are really good," Rainie complimented.

"Yes!" Tommy agreed.

Luca recorded their compliments and sent them to Queenie.

Queenie could not stop smiling when she heard the kids praising her.

"What are you smiling about?" Jack walked into the room after his shower. He saw Queenie leaning against the headboard, happily looking at her phone.

"Listen to this. The kids are complimenting me." Queenie proudly played the recording of the kids' compliments.

"My wife is indeed talented," replied Jack, sitting down next to her. He set his phone aside and then said, "Queen, we need to talk about Leia."

Earlier, Queenie was in a good mood because of Luca's company, but Lela had always been a sore spot for both of them.

Given the current situation, Jack felt that even his subordinates looked at him differently.

They probably wondered how someone so fair and strict could raise a child who committed such heinous and immoral acts... Hence, Leia remained a difficult subject for them. She had cast a long shadow over their lives.

"What's left to discuss?" Queenie opened her message and found Leia's contact. She pondered for a moment before blocking and deleting her.

Jack noticed her actions. "You're right. There's really nothing left to discuss."

"Dear, I went to see her today. We were worried she wouldn't meet with us. So, I used Luke's name. The staff, knowing I was your wife, let me in. She thought it was Luke visiting and agreed to see us.

"After she saw us, she got very emotional, blamed us for everything, and accused us of all sorts of things. But I can't even remember the specifics now," Queenie said slowly.

She tried to recall what Leia had said but could not. Perhaps it was because the words were too hurtful, or perhaps they no longer mattered to her.

"She only agreed to see us because she thought it was Luke? What's going on in her head?" Queenie turned to look at Jack.

Jack frowned and shook his head.

"But her rant really hurt me. It made me come back to my senses at the same time. Here's how I see it. We adopted her from the orphanage, gave her a great life and education, and even paid for her medical treatment when she got sick. We've done more than enough, haven't we?" asked Queenie.

Jack nodded. It was all part of what parents should do.

However, the problem was, the child repaid kindness with betrayal.

Leia was adopted into the family. Yet, she repaid their kindness with betrayal, even harming her own mother.

With such a situation, most families would have cut ties with long ago.

Just as Queenie said, they had done more than enough for Leia.

"We've done plenty. Some people just don't know how to be grateful. Queen, don't burden yourself with this anymore," Jack comforted her.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Queenie shook her head with a smile. "I don't feel burdened. In fact, I've thought it through.

"I have nothing to feel guilty about. My current health issues are partly because of her. I don't expect her to get any better in there. Good or bad, I don't want her as my daughter anymore," declared Queenie.

Jack was a bit surprised that she had come to this conclusion so quickly. Queenie figured it out in just one day. No, it only took her one afternoon.

However, considering her previous hesitation, he asked again, "Are you sure?"

"Yes, I'm sure." Queenie modded. "We have a wonderful daughter. Isn't that enough? Let's stop worrying about those who don't matter," added Queenie. She felt that having Luca around was enough.

Back then, Leia had done so many things and caused Luca so much harm. If it were not for Luke considering their reputation, Leia would have been locked up long ago.

Things would not have waited until now.

Queenie felt that if some people did not want to stay around, there was no point in keeping therm. In that fleeting moment, it all fell into place for her.
