Chapter 1901

A voice came from behind the door when Luca felt helpless.

“You have to be harsh to the patient if he refuses to listen to you," said Johann as he came walking in.

Luca watched Johann ignore Luke's wishes and lowered his bed directly.

"You!" Luke was forced to lie down while he was still holding a document in his hands. The laptop thatwas on his thighs was tilting now.

"You should be resting. Besides, aren't you tired of reading like this? Why don't you use the desk?"Johann asked. He was grinning at Luke, while Luke stared at him angrily.

"Mind your own business. Adjust it back." Luke tried to sit up on the bed, but he felt dizzy after hemoved a little.

He could not even sit up on the bed.

"You can't get up, right?" Johann grinned and said, "Take a nap. You won't feel dizzy when you wakeup later."

Luke glared at him and asked, "Why?"

"I gave you some medicine. It'll take some time before it takes effect. You'll feel better after taking anap. And your condition will naturally improve too," said Johann.

Luca picked up Luke's laptop and put it away. Then, she grabbed the document Luke was holding inhis hands.

"Mr. Crawford, you should take a rest since the doctor said so."

Luke was about to say something, but Johann shook his head. "Don't tell me you can't sleep. Themedicine I gave you can help you sleep. Calm yourself down, then see if you can fall asleep."

"You did it on purpose!" Luke's brows furrowed even more. Previously, Johann would avoid giving Lukeany medicine that would make one feel drowsy whenever Luke fell sick.

A good night's sleep was a luxury to Luke.

He needed more time to handle his work.

"You have to take the medicine if you'd like to recover quickly and make those symptoms go away.Once you recover, you can go back to being a workaholic. Besides, don't you have Dr. Craw here withyou? She can help." Johann closed the curtains as he said that. "Get some sleep. Just half an hour andyou'll feel better."

Luke did not say another word. Perhaps he felt much more comfortable when he laid down, or maybethe medicine had begun to work, so he started to feel sleepy now.

Luca looked at Johann thankfully when she noticed Luke was no longer resisting. She stepped forwardto cover Luke with the blanket.

Johann watched everything she did.

As an outsider, Johann could see clearly how much Luca cared about Luke. They had each other intheir hearts, but why were they torturing each other like this?

They would be able to live happily together if they just got together, right?

Johann shook his head as he watched the awkward couple.

Luca happened to notice Johann's reaction and she asked in a soft voice, “Dr. Park, what's wrong?"

"I'm just sighing." As Johann watched Luke, who had his eyes closed, he thought Luke would be ableto get a good night's sleep. Although the hospital was full of the smell of disinfectant, he had Luca withhim.

Luke had come looking for Johann before, asking him to give him some medicine as he was sufferingfrom insomnia. When Johann asked him why he never had insomnia before this, Luke told him it wasbecause Bianca's presence made him feel relieved. He could fall asleep at once the moment he laydown on the bed as long as he could smell Bianca's scent in the air, or if he was in the same space asher.

Bianca was like the cure to Luke's illness.

Now, his cure had come back.

"Why are you sighing?" Luca asked in a soft voice. She could not help but wonder what was inJohann's mind.

"Only you and drugs that cause one to be drowsy can make him sleep so peacefully." After that,Johann smiled and left the ward.

Luca watched Johann leave the ward from behind. She was left deep in thought.

Did Johann know something about her? Perhaps both of them had found out something?

Luca did not dwell on it. Instead, she closed the door. Even though it was a VIP ward that was in theinnermost corner on this floor, there were still a few patients' family members who would walk past theroom out of curiosity.

Luca set the alarm for one and a half hours from now.

It would be unrealistic for Luke to stop working for the whole afternoon. It would be enough for him tosleep peacefully for one and a half hours.

Luca returned to the sofa. She could feel the wound on her waist hurting.

Luca touched her wound, and she had a bad feeling about it. She got up and walked into thewashroom. Then, she removed the gauze and glanced at the mirror. Some blood was oozing from thewound.

Her wound had almost healed.

Perhaps it was because she had been sitting in a bad posture for the whole morning.

Luca thought she would not need to treat it since there was not too much blood oozing out. However,she realized the adhesive gauze could no longer stick when she tried to stick it back on her wound.

Luca had no choice but to take off the gauze. Then, she carefully tip-toed out of the ward and came tothe nurses' station.

"Hello, can I have a roll of gauze, some bandage, iodine, and a few cotton swabs, please?" Luca saidto the nurse.

Those were basic medical supplies, so there would be some at the nurses' station.

“Sure. But why do you need these? Is the patient injured?” the nurse recognized Luca and askedhurriedly.

"Oh no, I accidentally hurt myself. That's why I need those things to dress my wound. Please includethe charges in Mr. Crawford's bills," said Luca.

"Where did you hurt yourself? Do you need my help?" The nurse took out the supplies that Lucaneeded.

"It's alright. I can do it myself," replied Luca. She took the supplies from the nurse and returned to theward.

The facilities in the VIP wards were truly the best. The door made no sound when Luca pushed thedoor open.

Luca closed the door and headed to the washroom. She disinfected the wound and dressed the woundswiftly, then walked out of the washroom.

Luke, who was lying on the bed, was still sleeping soundly. He was not affected by Luca's movements.

Luca let out a sigh of relief. As she looked at the man on the bed, she felt a little sleepy too.

She did not rest well last night.

She had been keeping a close watch on Luke, so she only managed to get two hours of sleep.

Luca glanced at the sofa at the thought of this. There was no need for her to use the foldable hospitalbed if she slept in a fetal position. Besides, she would be afraid that she would wake Luke up if shetried to unfold the bed.

Therefore, Luca took the blanket the hospital had provided for the patient's caretaker and lay down onthe sofa. She closed her eyes, planning to take a nap.

She knew she would be able to fall asleep.

It was because Luke was in here with her.

It did not take long before Luca fell deeply asleep. She seemed to hear Luke snoring a little before shedozed off.

Luke seldom snored as he was a light sleeper.

He must be sleeping soundly now.

As Luca pondered, drowsiness slowly took hold of her. She no longer thought about Luke.

The alarm rang half an hour later.novelbin

Luca opened her eyes and glanced at the time. She was only planning to nap for half an hour, but shedid not expect to have napped for one and a half hours with Luke.

Luca turned off the alarm. She sat up on the sofa and turned to look at the ward bed.
