Chapter 2331
“Okay. I have an important meeting to attend later. That's all for today. Bring Luca to my house fordinner when you're available," said Jack. He already heard Queenie mention it to him last night.
It was about how Leia got on Luca's nerves in the hospital, causing Luca to toss the medical recordsaside before leaving the hospital.
What would Luca think about Leia's ignorance and Queenie's doting?
"Okay." Luke did not take his words seriously. After all, Queenie was on her guard now.
If Luke brought Luca to their house, Queenie might suspect them.
Luke was not afraid of Queenie suspecting him, but Luca was concerned about Queenie's thoughts. Helooked at the computer screen. The commentators he paid had been guiding public opinion. Lukeclosed the website and continued with his work.
In the hospital.
Leia's face turned gloomy when she watched the videos on the internet.
People who had seen the videos were criticizing her. Her haters took the chance to expose theskeletons in the closet. The rumors about her that had faded away appeared in front of the public onceagain.
Leia's eyes were burning with anger. How she wished that she could register a few accounts to speakup for herself.
However, she knew there was nothing she could do.
If someone really stood out and defended her, the others would think that person was Leia herself.Then, that person would become a target of online abuse.
Leia had been in the entertainment industry for such a long time. She knew these people well. Theywished to make a big deal out of it, and some even forced her to step out and say something about it.
However, Leia was not silly. She would never get affected that easily.
Leia clasped her phone tight. She told herself that she had to endure it if she wanted things to quietdown as soon as possible. She could not act impulsively again.
The caretaker served the fruits that she had cleaned earlier and said, "Ms. Norman, have some fruits."
"All you know is to ask me to eat. Would I have ended up like this if it weren't for you?" Leia glowered ather.
The caretaker opened her mouth but said nothing. She dared not to refute Leia.
Although she felt wronged, who would be able to react quickly when something like that happened?Besides, someone was blocking the way. The old man looked pale and sick. She dared not to doanything to him.
However, she knew Leia's temper after taking care of her for some time. If she spoke up for herself, itwould only make Leia angrier, so she might as well not say anything.
"Are you dumb?" Leia got even more furious when the caretaker did not say a word.
She was nothing compared to the Norman family's maids. At least those maids were smarter than her.
Queenie had suggested a maid from their family take care of her back then.
However, Leia thought that the maid was working for the Norman family. She might tip Jack off whatshe did. It would be inconvenient for her, and she would feel as though someone was watching her.
Hence, she chose to hire this caretaker who was not as professional as their maid and rejectedQueenie's offer.
The caretaker was truly incomparable to the maids...
"Ms. Norman, have some fruits to calm yourself down. They'll stop talking about it after two days." Thecaretaker had seen the videos and comments too.
Leia threw the fruit bowl away.
Clang! The fruit bowl fell on the floor, and the fruits scattered all over.
"I won't make things any easier for you." Leia gave the caretaker a murderous look, wishing that shecould rip her into pieces.
The caretaker held her breath. If it were not for Queenie, who knew that it was difficult to take care ofLeia and offered her double pay, she definitely would have given up the job.
She could not help but feel sorry when she looked at the fruits scattered on the floor.
These were imported fruits. Leia was picky and wanted the freshest imported fruits. The fruits in thefruit bowl cost a few hundred dollars, yet they were thrown on the floor just like that.
The caretaker squatted down. She felt bad while she was picking up the fruits.
Leia would never eat them after they had fallen on the floor.
However, Leia would not let the caretaker eat them if she refused to have them. She would only shuther mouth after she saw the caretaker throw them into the trash bin.
Leia frowned while watching the caretaker clean up the floor. The anger stirring within her had yet to bereleased even though she had already thrown the fruit bowl. The door was pushed open just as shewas about to scold the caretaker.
Leia saw three nurses come walking into the ward. One of them was the head nurse, but she hadnever seen the other two nurses before. They did not look like the nurses who worked on this floor.
One of the nurses was pushing the wheelchair.
"What are you doing?" Leia looked at them. It was not the time for ward rounds now. Besides, Leia hadnot pressed the patient call bell either. Something must be wrong since so many nurses came in.
Could it be that her results were out and something was wrong with them?
"Leia?" The head nurse was the one in the lead. She glanced at her wristband and confirmed, "She'sLeia."
“Why are you here?" Leia had a bad feeling about this. Even if the nurses hated her, they had alwaysshown respect to her. After all, the patients who stayed on this floor were either wealthy or influential.
However, the respect shown on their faces was gone now.
Especially the head nurse. The expression on her face was cold without a smile.
"Your family has changed wards for you. They're nurses who work in the hepatobiliary departmentdownstairs. They're responsible for bringing you there," said the head nurse.
Then, she turned around and said to the nurses, "She's the one who needs to be transferred. Thedoctor has already given her the IV drip today. Just bring her downstairs."
"Okay, Head Nurse," one of the nurses replied. She came forward and confirmed Leia's name beforesaying, "Leia, we're bringing you to the ward downstairs now."
"Why am I transferring to the ward downstairs? I'm fine staying in this ward. What are you doing?" Leiawidened her eyes. She knew the ward management of this hospital.
Not every department had a VIP ward. All VIP wards were on the top floor. It was easier for the hospitalto protect the patient's privacy this way.
Besides, this hospital was the most popular in the whole country. Many people would travel here to seethe doctors here. It was difficult to get a slot here.
That was why there were no private wards in the department downstairs.
In other words, at least two hospital beds were placed in the normal wards downstairs.
"Your family requested it, so we're just doing our job," replied the nurse. She was about to help Leia getoff the bed.
Leia slapped the nurse's hands away and said, "What are you doing? Who gave the order?"
"Your father, the one who adopted you," answered the nurse. Jack was the one who asked the hospitalto make such arrangements.
Every medical staff member in the hospital had already known what Leia did on the second floor.
They also knew that Leia had a biological father. Jack was just someone who adopted her.novelbin
Furthermore, her biological father had donated his liver to her, but it seemed like Leia had no intentionof acknowledging her father even after she accepted his liver.
Although the nurses in the hospital had already gotten used to the ways of the world and their heartswere numb about life, when they saw the mess Leia had made, they still thought that it was Leia's fault.
They felt sorry for Dexter.
"Jack? Why would he do that? Besides, I'm the one staying in the hospital, not him. Who does he thinkhe is to ask you to transfer me to another ward?" Leia widened her eyes. There was only one thing inher mind—Jack had found out about it.
