Female Novel
Chapter 2558
Wanda wanted to make an appointment with the doctor, but the doctor called to ask about her healthcondition in the first instance.
“Ms. Rayne, I read the documents. The last time you came for a medical examination was last yeararound June. It isn't time for you to do another check-up. Are you feeling uncomfortable? Is that whyyou want to do a medical check-up?" the doctor asked. Luke was the one who arranged for the doctor.
The doctor was responsible, and he dared not to let anything go wrong with Wanda's health.
"Well, I haven't been getting enough rest these days. And my hands and legs are always cold. That'swhy I thought of heading to the hospital for a check-up," Wanda said in a relaxed tone. She thought itwas merely her health getting worse, and it was not such a big deal.
However, Wanda consciously listened to Luca's advice.
"I see. Let me make an appointment for your health screening tomorrow at 8:30 in the morning. Thehospital will send someone to pick you up. Is that okay for you?" the doctor asked.
Luca, who stood beside Wanda, heard what the doctor said. She knew it was Luke who arranged forthe doctor to be in charge of Wanda's check-ups.
Otherwise, one would only have to make an appointment for a normal medical check-up. How wouldthe hospital send someone over to pick the patient up?
It was not the first time Wanda had such an experience. She had already gotten used to suchthoughtful services. "Sure. Thank you."
"By the way, I can see that it's almost time for Old Man Rayne to do his semi-annual health screening.Perhaps he can come to the hospital for the health screening with you this time?" The doctorsuggested. It was all Luke's arrangements.
Old Man Rayne was older. Hence, he had to go for health screening semi-annually, while Wanda onlyhad to do it once a year.
"Sounds great. It's decided, then." Wanda nodded. She picked up her cup of tea and took a sip.
"Okay. I've already registered your appointment here. See you tomorrow," replied the doctor. Theappointment was done.
Luca waited for Wanda to hang up the call. Only then did she ask, "Ms. Rayne, may I know whichhospital the doctor is working at? That's very kind of him." "The doctor works in the health clinic. It'sLuke who bought the VIP health package for us. That's why the service is good and comprehensive.We're lucky to have Luke helping us. Otherwise, I'd have to drive back and forth to the hospital," repliedWanda. Even though Bianca was staying abroad now and the couple's relationship was nothing but anempty shell, Luke had always been kind to the Rayne family.
Luca smiled and nodded. She reckoned that the health clinic only provided services for those whocould afford them.
It was just like how it was in other countries.
These health clinics had advanced facilities, and the doctors were professional. If the doctors found outthere was something wrong with their patient's health, they would cooperate with the top hospitals inthe country to provide the best services for their patients.
There was no doubt that Luke was treating Luca's family well.
“Ms. Rayne, why did you ask me to come over today?" Luca set her worries aside when she knewWanda was willing to go for a medical check-up.
No matter what the issue was, they had to wait until Wanda's medical report came out.
Besides, if Wanda truly needed to nurse her health, Luke would tell Luca about it.
"It's nothing. It's just that you've been helping my father to nurse his health for such a long time. He'sfeeling much better now, so we thought of inviting you over for a meal," explained Wanda. Old ManRayne's state of mind had been improving these days. He would like to thank Luca for helping him tonurse his health.
"I'm glad I could help Old Man Rayne. Ms. Rayne, is Grandpa Rayne upstairs now?" Luca asked. Sheassumed that Old Man Rayne was probably not taking a rest now.
"Yes. He's much more energetic now. He spends a lot of time reading books and watching TV shows.Let me go upstairs and get him." Wanda smiled as she rose to her feet.
Old Man Rayne could do many things himself now. He hardly needed anyone's help.
It was a good sign.
"Okay." Luca did not follow Wanda upstairs due to her identity.
After a while, Wanda pushed the wheelchair Old Man Rayne was sitting in out of the elevator.
Old Man Rayne was delighted to see Luca and said, "Luca, you finally came."
"Grandpa Rayne." Luca rose to her feet. Old Man Rayne looked so energetic now. His cheeks wererosy and he was in high spirits. He was no longer the sick old man he used to be. "You look great. Areyou feeling better now?"
"Yes. Aren't you the one who helped me to recover my health? I feel much better now. I eat well andsleep well these days." Old Man Rayne felt connected and close to Luca when he saw her. He signaledWanda to push the wheelchair near the sofa.
Wanda pushed Old Man Rayne, who was in a wheelchair, to the living area. Old Man Rayne was old,and even though his health improved a lot, some health issues were irreversible. That was why he hadto sit in a wheelchair.
"Dad, have a chat with Luca. I'm going to make dinner," said Wanda.
"Sure." Old Man Rayne waved his hand. His gaze had never left Luca.
The more Old Man Rayne looked at the woman in front of him, the more he became fond of her.Although she looked completely different from Bianca, she gave him the feeling that he was talking toBianca.
Perhaps it was the sweet smile on Luca's face or the dulcet tone of her voice that sounded like Bianca.
Old Man Rayne felt like he was talking to his biological granddaughter.
“Grandpa Rayne, may I check your pulse for you?" Luca felt a lump in her throat when she saw OldMan Rayne's wrinkled hands that were scattered with lines and sun spots.
Old Man Rayne had worked hard to raise and support Luca when she was young.
Luca had no choice but to use a different identity to take care of him now.
Luca hated Abel, yet there was nothing she could do to him.
The reason Luca felt helpless about Abel was that Abel had taught her a lot of things, and he let herlearn medicine from Shanks. That was why she could nurse and prescribe medicine for Old Man Raynebased on his health condition.
However, Luca hated Abel for making her live around the people she loved with another identity.
"I'm feeling so much better. There's no need to trouble you. I invited you here today to thank you andtreat you to a meal. You didn't come to visit me during the New Year. I missed you a lot," said Old ManRayne.
He initially thought of inviting Luca over for a meal during the New Year.novelbin
However, Wanda told him that Luca was busy and it would be better not to disturb her. That was whyhe put it off.
Then, Old Man Rayne thought about Luca today. Hence, he asked Wanda to help him invite her over.
"Checking your pulse won't affect you treating me to a meal, right?" Luca blinked her eyes.
Old Man Rayne smiled. He leaned forward and placed his hand on the coffee table for Luca to checkhis pulse.
Luca placed her fingers on his wrist.
After a while, Old Man Rayne let her check his other hand.
Half a minute later, Luca withdrew her hands and said with a smile on her face, "Your pulse is strongerthan before. Keep on doing the herbal foot bath and take some herbal medicine to nurse your health.I'm sure you'll become stronger and healthier."
"Young lady, you sure know how to make me happy. I love hearing those words, but I'm getting older. I'llbe satisfied as long as my health stops getting worse. The medicine you prescribed for me wasamazing. I only took it for some time and I no longer feel tired when I'm talking. Besides, my handswork better than they used to. I can breathe easier too. You deserve all the credit," Old Man Raynecomplimented.
