Hearing from her serious tone that she had mistaken what he meant, Johann quickly wagged his hands and shook his head. "You say that the two people are college kids, but they have to know certain people in order to get their hands on this poison. Mr. Doyle is still at the police station, isn't he? Get him to keep a close eye on the two kids. Don't let them get away." Luca pressed her lips when she heard that. The nurse had injected the serum earlier, and it had not taken effect yet. "I'll go and make a call," she said. "Mm." Johann nodded. "I'll take care of him." Luca went to the balcony. A gust of night wind made her shiver. It was only then that she realized that she went to the hospital in her pajamas. In her anxiety over Luke's condition, she had forgotten to change her clothes. She gave a call to Jason and told him about Luke's condition. Jason was furious when he found out that Luke was poisoned. "I won't let them off so easily." "Mr. Doyle, Mr. Crawford has alread
He could not remember anything that happened after that. Luca saw that Luke was struggling to sit up. She sighed and said, "The knife that injured you last night was coated in snake venom. You were poisoned." 'Poisoned?' Luke raised his eyebrows slightly as though he could not believe what was told to him. He could only remember that he was in great pain and that he threw up before he passed out. "After the snake venom took effect, Tommy heard your cries of help and gave me a call." Luca turned around to look at the child. He was still sleeping on the couch. "And then?" Luke asked. "Then I gave Dr. Park a call, and he arranged an ambulance to send you to the hospital. The doctor ran a toxicology test and found that you were poisoned by a snake found locally." Luca did not tell him about feeding him the antidote pills. Luke nodded. Luca continued to talk in case Luke had doubts. "Your poisoning has nothing to do with my powder. If you feel the need, you can get Mr. Doyle
"Thank you." Luca did not refuse Johann's gist and took the bag. After all, she was in a public place, and even though her pajamas were not revealing, it was not very appropriate for her to wear that. She went into the bathroom and closed the door. When she opened the bag, she realized that not only had Johann prepared a coat for her, he had also given her three sets of toiletries. Luca opened a set and brushed her teeth. She put the coat on and left the bathroom. The coat reached her ankles. It was long enough to cover her pajamas. After Luca came out of the bathroom, Tommy ran over and hugged her legs. "I want to brush my teeth too, Ms. Luca." "Alright." Luca glanced toward the bed and saw the nurse taking Luke's blood sample. She brought Tommy to the bathroom and opened another set of toiletries for him. When Tommy was done brushing his teeth and they stepped out of the bathroom, The nurse had already taken the blood sample and was walking out of the door. Tommy went
What happened to Luke might seem like an unfortunate coincidence, but if Luca thought carefully about it, she could not help but shake off the feeling that Abel was somehow involved with providing the snake venom. Jason shook his head. "After preliminary investigations, there isn't anything suspicious about the two students' backgrounds." Luca frowned. 'There's nothing suspicious about them?' Luke noticed Luca's reaction to what Jason said, but he chose not to say anything about it. Jason continued to speak to Luke, "William, the student who harmed you, is a student in his junior year in university, and his father is a successful local entrepreneur. Right, his business has relations with the New York branch of T Corporation. As far as I can tell, they are wholly legitimate and don't have any shady dealings. "The other student's name is Paul. His background is much more normal than William's. His parents are typical white-collar workers, and they don't have any dealings with t
After breakfast, Jason asked the nurse for a bag to keep Johann's coat. Then, he began to pack up. He noticed that Luke had barely eaten his food and asked, "Is that going to be enough for you, Mr. Crawford?" "Take it away." Luke did not feel hungry at all. Tommy was sitting on the couch drinking milk. When he heard that, he said, "Daddy is a picky eater. He only likes to eat food that Ms. Luca cooks for him." Luke shot a glance at his son. Then, he used the remote control to lower the bed. Jason cleared his throat and said, "I can get you something else to eat if you don't want sandwiches." Luke shook his head and said, "Go to the company and get me my documents." Jason was quite surprised. Why would Luke want to work when he could not even get out of bed? Luke noticed that Jason was still standing there. He glanced at him coldly, "Didn't you hear what I said?" "I did, but the condition of your body…" Jason said hesitantly. "Shall I repeat myself?" Luke said. Jas
Luca stashed the notepaper in her pocket after giving it a brief glance. Then, she stood up and said, "That knife, you were preparing to use it on William, right?" Paul's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes opened wide as he watched Luca leave the room. He had put on a convincing disguise so that other people thought that he and William were best pals despite their differences in family backgrounds. Many people thought that Paul was willing to be William's lackey so that he could gain some benefits from him. However, no one, including the people on the same football team, knew that he hated William to the bone. How did the woman in front of him guess it so easily? Paul clenched his fists tightly as he watched her leave. If William found out that Paul had meant to cut him with the knife, Paul would no longer have a future. After Luca left the police station, she caught a cab and returned to the hotel. Meanwhile, Jason was informed that Luca had appeared at the police stat
Tommy could not wait to open his food box. The aroma of the food assailed his nostrils. Jason glanced at Tommy's dinner. There was a variety of food in the box, and it seemed very delicious… He could not help but gulp down a mouthful of saliva. He was not as picky about food as Luke or Tommy, but the food at the hospital was not appetizing at all. Jason hoped that he could have a taste… Luca handed him a box. "This one's for you, Mr. Doyle." "I get to eat too?" Jason was quite surprised. He noticed that Luca had brought three boxes of food and thought that there was none for him. "Mm, this one's yours," Luca said as she picked up the last box of food. "If you gave me this box, what about you?" Jason asked. "I've already eaten." Luca brought the box of food to the bed, then raised the table. "Dinner is served, Mr. Crawford." Luke nodded and put the documents aside. Luca noticed that there was a stack of documents on the bedside cabinet. Even though he had been serio
"Mm." Luke turned a page, then put the paper aside, saying, "Stay here tonight."Luca was not sure how to react. "Do you have something else to do?" Luke asked.Luca initially planned to go to the address Paul gave her to see if she could find that person. However, she could not say no to Luke since he had asked.She rubbed her hands and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you on my own. Should I hire a male nurse for you?""No, it’s nothing serious. You wouldn’t have to do much," Luke said.Luca understood what he meant and knew that she could not leave. He made it clear that he wanted her with him. She had no choice but to agree. "I understand, Mr. Crawford.""Bring me a wheelchair." Luke immediately started ordering her around.Luca nodded, walked out of the ward, and asked the nurse for a wheelchair. She then pushed it into the ward.Upon seeing this, Luke continued to give her orders. “Help me into the wheelchair."Luca nodded. After being told so, she s
