After the nurse has left, Luca lay back down on the bed. Her mind was replaying the statement Luke gave. 'I owe him an apology?'Luca stared at the ceiling. She was clueless why she had to apologize.After Luke left the ward, he received news from Ray. After thanking Ray, he told the latter that Luca's condition was stable after taking the medication and she was under observation. For the time being, she did not need to be treated further. After Ray learned about it, he replied to Luke's message telling him that he could just text him whenever he encountered a problem.Then, Luke controlled his wheelchair to a side of the corridor and waited.Jason bought two bottles of water and came over. He saw Luke in the corridor and asked, "Sir, is the doctor in there treating Luca?""No," Luke said. The moment he entered, the nurse came out. Currently, only Luca was in the ward."Then, why are you here…" Jason looked at the ward, puzzled. He noticed the door was closed."She needs res
After the reminder, Luke placed his phone down and controlled his wheelchair back to the office table. He said, "Let’s settle some work.""Yes, sir." Jason pulled out another chair and started working together with Luke.After settling the important matters, Luke's phone vibrated a few times.He picked it up and took a glance at it. It was a message from his subordinate.He said he had gotten the video recording from the car driven by Luca. However, the footage from that day seemed normal. The places recorded were T Corporation and the villa. There were no other suspicious places. Luke placed his phone down.Luca had definitely gone to another place. The only explanation for that would be that she did not drive to that place herself.'She intentionally did not drive there. She definitely went to meet someone special, and that's why she got injured…'It had been quite some time since this issue was over. Luke knew it would be difficult to investigate it. He would need some time
“Uhh, bathing…" Jason let out a troubled expression. "Mr. Crawford, I've never done this before. I don't know how…"Luke knew Jason would misunderstand and said with a dark expression, "I don't need you to help me. I just need you to help me get into the bathtub."'He doesn't need me to help him take a bath!'Jason let out a breath of relief and said, "No problem with that, Mr. Crawford."Luke looked at Luca's door which was closed tightly. With a dark look in his eyes, he said, "Your Russian must be bad, right?"Jason scratched his head, feeling embarrassed. "I don't speak Russian, Mr. Crawford. I always use English when I'm communicating with the hotel staff."As he did not know Russian, it took him a long time to get the hotel management to find him a driver who knew English. He also needed an exclusive kitchen."Prepare the translation software. Tomorrow, you'll be my main assistant," Luke decided and said. Initially, he decided to have Luca attend. Apart from everything els
Misha's speech angered Gordan. 'It was Vivian who suggested divorce, and now she's sending a lawyer over to negotiate with me. What is she plotting at?'"I can only talk about my requests with Vivian. Even though I'm in a hurry to divorce, I'll not sign this agreement. Pass my word. If Vivian doesn’t take the initiative to talk to me, we’ll just drag this on forever. Anyway, I'm not in a hurry," Gordan said and hung up the call.He was not afraid that Vivian would regret it and refuse to divorce him.Currently, the divorce papers that had been signed were in his hand. If the worst situation were to occur, which was Vivian regretting it, he would just sign the papers and submit them.He would sell the villa after the divorce and transfer half the money to Vivian's account. That way, he would not owe her anything.Gordan had it all planned out, and he really was not in a hurry. He believed that Vivian would show up once Misha passed on his words.His mood changed, and he got up to
"He’s not satisfied with the contents of the divorce agreement. He wants to meet you." Ray passed on Misha’s words and did not hide them from Vivian.She was an adult and could make her own decisions. She should take responsibility for herself."Not satisfied? Which part of it?" It was as if Vivian did not hear the other half of the statement and only enquired about the first half."He's not willing to tell Misha. He only said he wants to meet you," Ray said."If there's anything, just get Misha to do it. I don't wish to meet him," Vivian blurted out. She would keep wanting to meet him if she met him again. She suppressed her yearning for Gordan. She could only let go of him if she did not meet him again. It was not easy making this decision, and she did not wish to be fazed because of this."It's good that you refuse to meet him, but you might not be able to divorce him like this," Ray reminded her."He’s the one in a hurry to end this marriage, not me. If he wants more money,
She was wounded, yet she was still preparing breakfast in the kitchen as if nothing had happened.It was no wonder no one noticed her injuries prior. He wondered what she had gone through in the past three years to become the tough woman that she was now.Her wound was inflamed, but she was able to get out of bed and make breakfast after only one day of treatment. It was normal to assume that her wound was not a serious one based on how she acted.However, he had seen her wound the day prior. Although there were sutures, the doctor said that her wound ran deep and bone was exposed."It's just a minor injury. I feel better after a night's rest," Luca turned around and said. That was the only way she could face his concerned tone.Luke noted her calmness. He could not do anything. The height of the table was beyond his reach."Mr. Doyle will bring you breakfast later." He looked at her running around and felt helpless when he noticed that it did not seem like she intended to stop.
"I won't let you take the risk without a reasonable explanation," Luke said. Her complexion was doing much better, so he believed that she could participate in the meeting.Jason was caught between them. He did not dare to breathe loudly for fear of being screamed at by either one of them.Luca took a deep breath and quickly thought of a reason that could explain everything. "I was caught up with work and didn't pay much attention to the wound. It was infected with a type of fungus, but this fungus isn’t ordinary. It took me some time to figure out what it was. I wrote a prescription for myself but forgot to bring it to Russia."She did not take medicine in time, which caused the wound to be inflamed."What caused your wound?" Luke asked. If she gave him a reason, whatever it was, he would agree to let her attend the meeting.He estimated that the meeting would not take too long as it was only an announcement of the results."I was robbed when I went to Amur's house. I resisted a
"Thank you," Luke thanked him politely. Jason and the driver helped Luke out of the car and into his wheelchair.Luca got out of the car as well.The three walked into the lobby of M Group together and bumped into Pierre."Hey, Mr. Crawford." Pierre grinned happily when he saw Luke. The hotel he booked was different from Luke's, so he had not seen him for the past few days. He was slightly upset that he could not find fault with Luke. Although he had been a having good time in Russia the last few days, he had not seen Luke. He could only think about how depressed Luke would look after the meeting. He wanted to mess with him."Second Young Master," Luke called out to him to remind him that no matter how capable he was, he was second in line in the Mallory family.The heir of Mallory's had long been designated as Percy, who was the eldest son, by Old Master Mallory.Pierre's mood darkened immediately. He understood the reason for the change in addressment.Luke was reminding hi
