Chapter 2579
"Luca?" Queenie hurriedly stood up and looked at Leia reproachfully. She did not expect Leia to maketrouble at such a time.
Luca was about to leave, but she paused and eventually turned around to say, "Mrs. Norman, I'm sorry.Ms. Norman doesn't have any trust in me, so I think she should go to the doctors in the hospital. Afterall, they're registered professionals with the license to practice."novelbin
Leia watched her leave and hurriedly called out to her, "Stop! Who told you to leave?"
Jack also stood up and said loudly, "I told her to."
"Dear!" Queenie looked at him quickly. She expected him to say something to help with the situation orforce Leia to apologize.
However, she did not expect that he would support Luca leaving.
"Luca is right." Jack walked up to Luca. He could not bear to see his biological daughter being bulliedby Leia.
Leia was the one who needed help, yet her ridicule and suspicion made it uncomfortable for anyone tolisten to her.
"Come on, Luca. I'll send you home," Jack said. He intended to drive her as he did not know thatLuke's men were standing guard on the outside.
"No need, Mr. Norman. Get some rest. My friends are waiting for me outside," Luca said.
Jack raised his eyebrows and realized that the friends she was talking about were probably arrangedby Luke. He nodded and said, "In that case, I'll send you off."
"Dad!" Leia fretted and stomped her feet. Her eyes wandered back and forth between the door andLuca.
"What? Are you not satisfied even after offending our guest?" Jack was angry. If Leia were not ill, hewould not have been able to control himself from giving her a tight slap.
‘How could I have adopted such a good-for-nothing?'
"I'm your daughter!" Leia said, her eyes teary. She did not need to stop Luca from leaving. She was justtrying to drag it out.
‘Damn it, why haven't those men stormed in yet?' "My daughter would never be as ill-mannered asyou!" Jack was furious and wanted nothing more than to kick Leia out of the house.
His daughter was Luca, and she was a daughter who made her father proud. Luca was unlike Leia,who would only bring shame to the family.
"You..." Leia's sentence came to an abrupt end when she saw some men barging in from the door.
Those men had weapons in their hands, so she quickly ducked aside to avoid getting hurt in theprocess.
Jack also heard the footsteps. He looked at the men who rushed in and noticed that they held daggersand iron bars in their hands. He frowned and asked, "Who are you? Do you know where this is?"
"Let's go. Grab that woman!" The man in the lead commanded his subordinates and acted as thoughhe did not hear Jack.
Luca knew that they came for her the moment she saw the men.
Luke's subordinates, like her, did not expect the thugs to be so bold and rush in without any regard.She called Rain in an instant.
She was unsure whether the call was connected. She held her phone tightly in her hand and looked atthe men who rushed over. She took advantage of the situation and pulled Jack, who was beside her, tohide.
The group of men immediately chased after Luca.
"Mr. Norman, protect Mrs. Norman." Luca pushed Jack away and ran straight out.
Luke's men were outside. She would be safe if she could get outside.
"This woman wants to run. Chase her!" The leading man realized Luca's intention and immediatelyshouted.
Leia hid in the corner and screamed with displeasure to get the men's attention when she noticed thatthey were so focused on their pursuit of Luca that they forgot about Jack and Queenie.
"Ah!" A scream pierced through the roof.
The leader then remembered their extra task and rushed over to Queenie and Jack with a dagger in hishand. "Hmph, I didn't expect a bumper harvest today."
Luca had already got to the entrance. She turned around and found that those men were also headingtoward Jack and Queenie, so she bit her lower lip and said, "Didn't you want to catch me?"
The man stopped in his tracks. He was wearing a mask, so she could not see the expression on hisface. However, she felt his sinister and vicious gaze.
"Do you care about them?" The man seemed to have discovered new information.
Meanwhile, Luca was surrounded by several men.
She closed her eyes and did a quick analysis in her head. There were four men in total. Two of themhad knives in their hands, and the other two men also had iron rods in their hands.
If she grabbed the dagger, she might be stabbed.
However, if she instead grabbed the iron bar, the worst that could happen was that she would be hit.
Luca clenched her fists and tried to distract them by talking, "Your target is just me, and now I'msurrounded by your men. Don't you want to have me delivered to whoever hired you and get yourpay?" "That sounds right..." Before the man finished speaking, Leia, who was on the side, said, "Yes,you must never hurt my parents! Do you know who my father is? If something happens, you'll never getaway with it!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the man raised his head and howled to the skies. He looked atQueenie, who was being protected by Jack. He said gloomily, "Is that so? I'm going to kidnap Mr.Norman and his wife today. What are you going to do about it?"
He took a step forward as he said that.
Jack frowned and guarded Queenie. "Don't hurt my wife."
Luca frowned. The scene seemed familiar as Leia once tried to use this method to get the villain to letgo of Queenie.
‘How stupid.'
The people around her were also distracted by Leia. Luca took advantage of them not paying attentionand grabbed someone's rod. With a loud smack, the iron rod landed on the man closest to her.
The sound caught the attention of the others.
The man who was assaulted by Luca fell to the ground and yelped in pain.
"Get this woman under control first!" The man realized that Luca had some skills and quicklycommanded his subordinates. Jack and Queenie were not part of the plan. The most important thingfor them was to get Luca.
Leia watched all the men crowd around Luca. She gritted her teeth and looked at Queenie and Jackwith resentment.
They were alright.
Queenie hid behind Jack, pale and overwhelmed with fright.
When he saw them acting as such, Jack roared angrily and shouted, "What's the point of you going ata woman? Come at me instead!"
"Dear!" Queenie understood that Jack did that because Luca had helped their family. She looked at thephone beside the table, reached out tremblingly, and wanted to call the police.
The leader turned around and pointed the dagger at Jack's body. "Don't worry, we'll give you a knife assoon as we subdue this woman."
Queenie was reaching for the phone. At this moment, Luca was waving a rod and taking a defensiveposture.
It was a little difficult for her to face so many men by herself.
No matter how difficult it was, Luca would never allow these men to hurt Jack and Queenie!
Leia noticed Queenie's actions and knew she was about to call the police, so she deliberately actedfrightened and called out to her, "Mom!"
