Keith immediately stopped talking. He widened his eyes and looked at Johann in disbelief. ‘He’s a doctor! How dare he yell at the patient's family?! I must file a complaint!’Johann looked at him coldly and said, "Dr. Craw is just joking, yet you can't tell? All you’ve done is chatter non-stop. Do you want your cousin to get better?""How do I know whether she's joking or not? Besides, you’re saying that she's joking but maybe she truly doesn't understand anything and is just acting in front of you!" Keith said in anger. ‘How dare he accuse me of being ignorant?!’He was not ignorant. He just did not believe that a woman who looked after people would be capable of curing Tyrone.Johann felt a headache coming on. ‘Why is he so hostile toward Luca?’Many in the hospital wanted to get Luca's help. He once asked her for help on their behalf but she turned him down saying that she was not interested in practicing medicine. Luca would not be helping Tyrone if it were not for Nina."I
"Hello, Dr. Craw," Dr. Wood greeted her as Johann did."Hello. We’re about to start. Family members, please wait outside." Luca's tone was cold. Unlike other doctors, she took no notice of the feelings of patients and their family members.Mrs. Hugh stood up and walked outside the ward.Keith wanted to stay but was pulled away by Larry. "Come on. You being here will only affect the doctor's mood and the treatment."Nina glanced at Luca. She thought long needles as such were scary, so she left the ward as well.Luca asked Johann, "Where are the medical gloves?""I'll get them for you." Johann turned around and grabbed two pairs of gloves from a cabinet by the door. One pair was for Luca, while the other one was for Dr. Wood.Dr. Wood looked at Luca's sterilized needles and asked, "Dr. Craw, are you going to use this set of needles to treat the patient?""Yes." Luca patted Tyrone who had his eyes closed and said, "Take off your clothes and lie down with your back facing us."Tyr
Dr. Wood was annoyed by what Keith said. "Not anyone can do it. Dr. Craw's dry needling methods are different from the traditional way. They’re more complicated and precise. And that’s why her methods yield such good effects. If you don't believe her, you can go to other hospitals to try. The effects of their doctors’ dry needling treatment definitely won’t be as good as Dr. Craw's.""I just—" Keith started saying.However, he was cut off by Larry, "Okay, that’s enough."Keith could only stop talking.Mrs. Hugh was afraid that what Keith had just said would offend Luca. If she refused to continue treating Tyrone, his recovery might be indefinite.Yesterday, she heard the nurse and the doctor discuss Tyrone’s condition. They mentioned that the probability of recovery was low. They were discussing how to prepare her mentally.When she heard that, she felt as though the sky was falling.Tyrone was still single. Even if Nina would compensate their family with a lot of money, she was
He mentioned Luke...Luca felt helpless. After Luke's car accident, Luke's brand was put on her body.However, she could not bring herself to hate what they were doing.That was because if the incident before had not happened, she would have been Luke's.After Luca left the prescription, she turned around and left. She took the elevator to the first floor and unexpectedly bumped into someone she did not want to see.Jean Langdon...Jean had just come out of the detention center. He was still in handcuffs and was accompanied by two policemen in uniforms.When everyone saw them, they were worried that Jean was a murderer and all fled.When Luca saw that it was Jean, she was about to turn around and leave via another exit. However, it was too late. Jean called out to her, "Luca!"There was a little trace of joy in his tone. He did not seem to feel ashamed that he was handcuffed and escorted by police.Luca had to stop. She turned around and looked at him with a frown."It is yo
"Mm." Luke's tone was still calm. After he found out that Luca had gone to the hospital, he guessed that she was there to help Nina.Her friendship with Nina and Sue had never changed.However, their relationship had changed a lot.Luke felt hurt when he thought of that. "You can leave now.""Okay," Luca did not say anything else. She left the room and closed the door for him.She went upstairs with her backpack. As soon as she returned to the bedroom, her phone rang.Luca thought it was Nina calling. She took out the phone and saw that it was a string of garbled characters. It was not Nina but Abel...She took a deep breath and answered the call. As soon as she put the phone to her ear, she heard him ask, "Did you get the bidding document as I asked you to?""The project bid hasn’t been completed." Luca frowned."Not finished yet? Ivana, who are you kidding? How could Luke's company be so inefficient?" Abel did not believe her.Luca could not help but feel a burning rage. If
"Is that so? Get some rest after dinner. Food is ready," the maid said with a smile.Luca felt that the maid was too involved. Maybe she was acting on Luke’s orders...When she heard the maid say that food was ready, she went into the study and said to Luke, "Mr. Crawford, dinner is ready."Luke nodded and picked up the thick stack of documents on the side. "Bring me the crutches."When he was discharged from the hospital, the hospital nurses had thoughtfully provided him with crutches but he never used them because he thought that it was bad for his image.Luca glanced at the documents in his hand and looked away casually, feeling a little guilty. She had seen the word ‘project’.‘Is that the bidding document?’She quickly hid her emotions and brought the crutches in the corner to Luke.Luke's mood sank when he saw the metal crutches. He thought that he would never use the crutches until he recovered, but he did not expect to have to use them now.Luca sighed to herself when
"Is that so..." Luca frowned slightly. He still wanted to attend the event even though he was injured."I don't feel comfortable handing the task over to others for important occasions as such," Luke said. He finished the warm water and put it on the table.Luca looked at his cast and said, "But your leg...""Start packing. You’ll be going on a business trip with me," Luke said. Not only was he going, but she was going too.If he had to go by himself, it was impossible for him to find out who was controlling Luca when he had to face so many bidders.Luca felt awkward. "I'm going too?""I need someone to take care of me. You’re more attentive compared to Jason. Do you have any objections?" Luke asked."No, I’m fine with the arrangement." Luca shook her head. ‘Am I allowed to say no? Of course not.’Even if the wound on her waist had not healed, she could not say anything. Since Luke asked, she could only say yes..."Get ready. We’ll leave next week." Luke finished speaking and
What he wanted to see most was Luke being pushed into the abyss by the woman he loved most.Luca was angry, and her current mood was complicated. She wanted to put a knife to Abel’s neck but did not even know where he was at the moment..."Are you done?" She took a deep breath. She wanted to escape from it all."No." Abel chuckled and continued talking, "Since you’ve completed the task I assigned you, I should give you an appropriate reward, right?"Luca wanted to turn him down because she knew that his so-called reward was of ill will.Abel said, "You haven't found what drug is in your wound, right? I’ll tell you.” "No need." Luca hung up the phone, not believing a word of what he said.Past experience told her that Abel's rewards and good deeds were all lies.If she believed him, it was most likely that her wound would worsen and she would not be cured.Abel pursed his lips when he heard the busy tone on the other end of the phone. He browsed through the photos Luca sent an
