Chapter 1473

Luke walked into the guest room, and Luca was right there lying on the bed.

He went closer and reached out to put his hands on Luca’s forehead. Her body temperature wasburning…

“How long has she been having a fever?” Luke asked.

“She was having a slight fever when it was noon, but I have no idea when her fever got worse,” Ninaanswered helplessly. She believed that Luca must have gotten worse during her sleep.

Luca did not even mention it when she was feeling uncomfortable.

Luke shot Nina a glance when he heard that and remained silent.

Just a glance and Nina knew he was blaming her for being careless. She then said, “I thought she wasjust tired. I didn’t think much about it. And I dared not to wake her up in the afternoon…”

Luke threw off Luca’s sheets and carried her in his arms right away.

“Are you sending her to the hospital now?” Nina watched him carry her away and asked.

“I’ve informed Johann. He’s waiting at the apartment,” Luke replied and carried Luca out of the guestroom. It was probably because Luca did not have an identification document, so staying in the hospitalwould be troublesome, which was why he informed Johann.

Nina watched as he left. She hurriedly grabbed her phone and room key before following behind.

She got into Luke’s car and took care of Luca in the back seat.

Luke drove quickly to the apartment. Nina put her hand on Luca’s forehead to check on hertemperature from time to time while exclaiming how fast the car was moving.

It was supposed to be a 20-minutes drive but they arrived in only 13 minutes.

After Luke parked the car and opened the car door to get Luca from the back seat, he carried her in hisarms out of the seat.

Before Nina had the chance to say something, the other side of the car door was closed. She pushedopen the car door on her side and got out, following Luke upstairs.

“Let me stay here tonight to take care of Luca.” Nina thought Luca was exhausted because of her.

“Save yourself the trouble. There’s a caretaker in the apartment. She’ll look after her,” Luke replied ashe walked into the elevator.

Nina pressed the elevator button for the floor hurriedly.

Luke shot her a glance.

She explained, “Back then when we found out Luca was hurt, Sue and I came to visit her before, so Iknow what floor it is.”

Luke nodded his head and did not say anything more.

It had only been a short while since Luca came here yet she had already gotten so close with Nina andSue. She was somehow similar to Bianca in some ways. They were almost similar in terms of makingfriends.

Bianca did not have many friends in the past. Nina and Sue were her best friends. Luca did not havemany friends around here either. There was only Sue and Nina.

Luke glanced at the woman in his arms. It was as if she was feeling especially safe in his arms. Half ofher face was buried in his chest.

When the elevator reached the floor, Luke carried Luca in his arms and walked out of the elevator.

The door of the apartment was open. He headed there and carried her right in.

“Mr. Crawford, Dr. Park is already here.” The caretaker saw him come in and spoke respectfully.

Luke nodded his head and glanced at the man sitting on the sofa. He gave him a slight nod and carriedLuca into the bedroom.

Johann stood up and saw the scene in front of his eyes. He let out a sigh in his heart. He would say itwas truly a lie if Luke said he did not care about Luca.

There were a few times when he noticed that there was a subtle change in Luke’s expression becauseof Luca. He may seem cold, but in fact, he was hiding the concern in his heart.

Luke kept saying that he was suspicious of Luca, but he actually cared about her.

It looked like women were not the only creatures who would not mean what they said in this world. Menwere the same too.

Johann carried his medical kit and followed Luke into the bedroom. After he took Luca’s temperature,he gave her an antipyretic injection.

Luke watched him perform his skilled injection technique and asked, “Why is she having a fever?”

“It’s hard to tell. It could be a cold, or it’s just her body warming up. But ultimately, it’s because of herweak body. I’ve said it previously, Dr. Craw needs to work on her health.” As Johann spoke, he glancedat Nina who was beside him. “You were together with Dr. Craw for the past two days?”

“Yes.” Nina nodded her head.

“Did she mention that she was feeling uncomfortable?” Johann asked again.

“No, she just looked especially tired today. She was fine the rest of the time,” Nina answered.

Johann nodded his head. “She’s been given an antipyretic injection. Let’s see if the apply treatmentmeasures for her if it’s not working.”

Luke nodded his head.

Nina recalled that Luca had not eaten anything and reminded Johann. “Dr. Park, she’s been sleepingsince this afternoon and hasn’t eaten anything yet. Can you please give her a nutrient injection? Shemust be starving.”

Johann thought for a moment, then he turned around and told the caretaker, “Go to the kitchen toprepare some oats. If the fever goes away, she’ll wake up soon. There’s no need to give her a nutrientinjection.”

“Are oats with bananas fine?” The caretaker heard him and asked immediately.

“Yes.”

“I’ll prepare it now.” The caretaker turned around and left the bedroom. She entered the kitchen toprepare some oats for Luca.

Johann looked at the man who had been standing beside the bed and reminded Luke. “Dr. Craw hasjust gotten an injection. The fever won’t reduce that quickly. Let’s wait outside.”

“Alright,” Luke replied, but he was still standing at the bedside.novelbin

Johann cleared his throat, reminding him that Nina, who knew nothing about the matter, was still here.

Other than a few people in the Crawford family, Percy, Johann, and Jason were the only ones whoknew that Bianca was the fake Bianca. The others had no idea about it.

Without the others knowing it, they would certainly be confused when Luke was showing concern for awoman

Luke looked at Johann, while Johann glanced at Nina.

He knew what he meant.

Nina stood there, looking at them both.

Luke left the room first.

Johann and Nina followed behind.

While the caretaker was cooking the oats, she prepared some fruits and refreshments for them. AsNina ate, she was thinking.

Everything seemed strange.

Luke cared too much about Luca.

The three of them did not speak in that half an hour. Other than the noises of the caretaker chopping inthe kitchen, it was quiet. They were afraid that they would disturb Luca’s sleep, so even the televisionin the living room was switched off.

Nina looked at the two men sitting on separate sofas with their phones in their hands. There was notmuch talking, which almost made her think that they were facing each other but communicating throughthe phone.

They were indeed communicating through the phone.

Johann teased Luke to control himself in front of others, and Luke indifferently replied to him with aquestion mark.

Johann smiled and remained silent. He did not point it out.

Luke probably did not realize how much he cared about Luca. However, as a bystander, Johann hadalready noticed everything. However, he was keeping it to himself.

As for Luke, he would notice it sooner or later that his concern for Luca was not ordinary at all.
