Female Novel
Chapter 2274
Right now, Amur was forcibly summoned back to the Island of Despair.
There was no telling when Abel would launch a lethal attack on Luke.
The future...
Luca pursed her lips as she could only imagine having a future.
Perhaps even before she would get the chance to find out why, she would have already been forced toharm Luke.
Luca's sudden silence made Luke glance sideways at her. He saw that she did not look so well.
She must have thought of something bad.
It seemed like he had to get a move on things.
After they arrived at the company, Luca got out of the car and hurried back to the laboratory to continueworking on her experiments.
Meanwhile, Luke returned to his office to work on documents.
Just like that, Leia's problem was settled in a flash.
It was the following day.
Luca received news that Leia was out of the ICU.
It was a Saturday, so she did not rush to the hospital. Instead, she stayed in the mansion to take careof the children.
She could choose not to go, but Luke had no choice.
No matter what, Luke was still the son-in-law of the Norman family. Even though he loathed Leia, hestill had to put on a facade.
Tommy was watching TV on the sofa when he noticed Luke leaving. He then turned around to look atLuca. “Ms. Luca, where's Daddy going?"
“The hospital. Your Aunt Leia had surgery yesterday and is out of the ICU today, so he's going over tovisit." Luca patted the child's head and then handed him some cut fruit.
"But Daddy doesn't even like Aunt Leia. He still has to visit her? Being an adult must be exhausting,"said Tommy while pouting.
Luca chuckled. Being an adult was indeed tiring, but that was just the way it was.
Jack did not like Leia, and he knew that Luke did not like her either, but it was not an excuse for themto not show up.
He was Leia's brother-in-law...
Rainie pointed to the gift bag next to her and said, “Ms. Luca, isn't Daddy supposed to bring this withhim?"
After the child's reminder, she realized that Luke did not bring the health supplements with him. Sheimmediately stood up and ran out with the gift bag in her hand.
Tommy looked at Luca and laughed. "Ms. Luca seems to be anxious."
"That's a good thing!" Rainie noticed it too.
"It's a good thing!" Tommy repeated her words.
Luca carried the bag and ran to the parking lot just as Luke was about to leave.
After seeing her run out without putting on a coat, he frowned and opened the car door. "It's cold out.Why are you here?"
"You forgot this." Luca sniffed and handed the bag to him with a smile on her face.
After walking just a short distance, her nose had already turned red and runny from the cold.
"You ran out just to deliver this? Look at what you're wearing. Hurry up and go back in." Luke took tothe bag from her and thought that there was no need for her to suffer in the cold.
Even if he had forgotten to bring it, he could just get it somewhere near the hospital. Plus, Jack andQueenie would not say anything even if he were to go empty-handed.
"It's common courtesy, and you can't get this anywhere near the hospital. Well, I'll head back in now,"said Luca as she rubbed her hands together.
She did not feel the cold when she was rushing out. Only when she stood still did she realize how coldit was, so she quickly ran back.
Luke looked at the bag in his hands. He then frowned when he saw Luca running in the snow whilethinly dressed.
The health supplements in this gift bag were expensive and 'specially prepared' for Leia, so theyindeed could not be found at nearby gift stores.
However, this gift was not worth having Luca be out in the freezing weather just to deliver it to him.
Leia was not worth it!
When Luca went back inside, Aunt Neile came out with a cup of hot tea as she was shocked to seeLuca walk outside in such thin clothing.
"Ms. Craw, quick, have some hot tea to warm up." She handed her the tea.
"Thanks, Aunt Neile." Luca held the teacup in her hands to warm them up, but it was too hot to drink.Hence, she let it sit for a while before drinking it.
Aunt Neile could not help but nag at her after seeing her tremble from the cold. "It's so cold outside.You need to put on more clothes even if you're in a rush. Plus, it's not like Mr. Crawford can't turn back.You shouldn't catch a cold because of this."novelbin
"It's okay. I have a good immune system, so I won't catch a cold." After saying that, Luca sneezed.
It was almost as if she manifested it.
Luca could kind of tell that she had caught a chill.
“Ms. Luca, won't you catch a cold?" Rainie said worriedly.
Luca smiled. "I won't. I'll be fine after having some ginger tea. I'll go make some now."
Aunt Neile hurriedly said, "Let me do it. Have a seat and drink some warm water while you rest to warmyourself up."
"Okay, thank you, Aunt Neile," thanked Luca while she fell into deep thought.
It was just a matter of a few minutes. Her immune system should not be so weak that she could noteven handle a few minutes of cold.
However, she felt chills all over her body which gave her a bad feeling.
"Ms. Luca, have some tea," advised Rainie as she saw Luca holding the cup without drinking.
Luca came back to her senses and took small sips of the tea.
After finishing the tea, Rainie asked with concern, "Ms. Luca, are you feeling better?"
"Yes, much better. Don't worry about me." Luca patted Rainie's head.
"Ms. Luca, why don't you go upstairs and lie down? It's much more comfortable laying under a blanket,"Rainie said worriedly as Luca was looking pale.
"No need, I'm feeling fine. Don't worry." Luca smiled.
Aunt Niele brought out some ginger tea and carefully placed it on the coffee table. "Ms. Craw, drink itwhile it's still hot. I added ginger root, so it should be more effective at curing a common cold."
"Thanks, Aunt Neile." Luca picked up the ginger tea and took a sip.
The ginger had been boiled in hot water, which enhanced its aroma so much it packed a huge punch.Even so, Luca still forced herself to down it all.
She did not want to catch a cold.
Once she had a cold, she would not be able to focus on her work, which would affect the progress ofher research.
Aunt Neile noticed her taking small sips of the ginger tea and sighed. "The weather is getting colderlately, even with indoor heaters. Many people are still catching colds. My daughter-in-law also caught acold from her children, and now, both of her kids have to go see a doctor. So, Ms. Craw, be careful."
"I'll be fine, don't you worry." Luca felt all warm inside after Aunt Neile repeatedly warned her.
After finishing the ginger tea, she sneezed again.
Tommy sat next to her and asked worriedly, "Ms. Luca, do you need to take medicine?"
"It's just a sneeze, and it's not even a symptom of a cold. There's no need for all of you to worry. I'vejust finished the ginger tea, so I'll be fine once my body warms up," Luca said with a smile.
