Chapter 2668

Rhett secretly rolled his eyes. These people were curious about someone else's affairs.

He was rendered speechless. Did they not know that curiosity killed the cat?

“I've never read any of the reports. Can we go through Dr. Craw's documents without her permission?"Rhett refuted.

He was not like them. Luca told him not to look at the reports, so he never read them.

The researcher who asked the question could sense the impatience in Rhett's tone, and he stoppedtalking.

However, the researchers found it strange as they noticed Luca had been repeating the sameexperiment for the past few days.

Rhett refused to tell them anything, and they dared not to ask Luca either. Therefore, they could onlybe curious.

Previously, Luca criticized a researcher after he went through her data information without herpermission. They dared not to peep at the data documents.

After Luca left the laboratory, she looked at her hand and told Mo Stone that she wanted a leave ofabsence from work.

Luca was planning to head to the hospital to look for Johann and remove the stitches. At the sametime, could drop by to deliver some fresh fruits to Mr. and Mrs. Norman as well as Wanda.

Luca was more worried about Wanda's condition now.

Wanda's body had an overwhelming reaction when she was receiving her first chemotherapytreatment. Even if Wanda took the prescription Luca gave her, she had no idea if Wanda would be ableto hold up following the next few sessions.

After Luca filled in the form, she asked Warren to send her to the hospital.

Luca bought some fruits at the supermarket downstairs after she arrived at the hospital. Then, shecontacted Johann.

Knowing that Johann was not currently in the operation room, Luca carried the bag of fruits and walkedtoward the elevator.

Before she entered the elevator, she ran into Leia.

Luca noticed that Leia seemed to be in a good mental state, but her sallow complexion seemed to begetting serious.

Leia saw Luca too. She sneered at her and noticed that Luca was carrying a bag of fruits in her hands.She said enigmatically, "Why? Are you here to curry favor with someone?"

Leia was green with envy when she was reminded of Luke taking Luca into the VIP wardroom that day.

Then, Leia added, “It's hilarious to see you trying to please my parents. Those who don't know wouldthink you're their biological daughter!”

'I am„.'

Luca secretly muttered, but what she said was not what she thought in her mind. “I came here toremove my stitches.”

After that, she raised her injured hand. “I'm not as lucky as you, after all. So many men broke into thehouse that day. Those who were present were attacked, but you're the only one who was safe andsound. Come to think of it, it's pretty strange."

A hint of guilt flashed across Leia's eyes. She gritted her teeth and scoffed. "It's you who was unlucky.What does it have to do with me? We call that a jinx here. You're a jinx. That's what you are, right?"

Luca felt helpless when she saw how Leia wished to use the most offensive words to abuse her.

Sure enough, no matter who Luca was, Leia was born to be hostile toward her. She was alwaysshowing so much hatred.

Leia even wanted to get others to do the dirty work and get rid of her.

"Is that so? Let's see who's going to make it till the end and who exactly is the unlucky one. Are youtaking your medicine lately?" Luca was not pissed. She had gotten used to Leia being mean to her.

Leia could not help but clench her fists when she noticed that Luca was not mad at her. Then, shereplied, "Why do you care?"

There was a faint smile at the corner of Luca's lips, and she replied, "It's none of my business, indeed.It's just that you don't look so good. Mrs. Norman was willing to risk her life to protect you and take careof you. She even put her pride aside and went around asking for help. Ms. Norman, take good care ofyour health. Don't let your body reject the liver and let everyone's effort be in vain."

A wave of fury rose inside Leia when she looked at the mocking smile on Luca's face. It made herblood boil.

Leia thought Luca was mocking her and ignored what she said in the latter sentence.

“Stop putting on a show. And my body's working fine. I'm not like you. Tsk tsk, you've done so manyevil things. How could you be shameless enough to come out here and roam around?"

Luca did not ask Leia what evil things she had done.

She had done many evil things, but they were not what Leia thought.

Luca was only following Abel's instructions when she did those things. Even though it was not what shewanted, she had no choice.

The elevator arrived on the first floor. Luca could not be bothered to refute what she said and replied,"What I said is true. You should pay attention to it."

After that, she walked into the elevator.

Leia rolled her eyes at her and walked toward another elevator. She refused to get into the sameelevator as Luca.

The doctor had told Leia to get a medical check-up, and she could get discharged from the hospital ifthere was nothing wrong with her.

However, Leia refused to do so. It was not that she was unwilling to do the check-up, but she wasreluctant to get discharged from the hospital.

She was worried that those police officers would come looking for her again after she was dischargedfrom the hospital.

If she was in the hospital, she could pretend she was feeling unwell and come up with different excusesto fool the police officers when they came looking for her.

Hence, she did not go for a medical check-up. She took medicine and got jabbed every day.

Even though it was uncomfortable for her to stay in a three-bed ward, it was better than living in theapartment.

After all, she would be on pins and needles if she got discharged from the hospital.novelbin

Luca arrived at the floor where Johann's office was.

She came to his office and knocked on the door.

“Dr. Craw, you're here. Come in," said Johann as he squeezed some sanitizer on his hands and rubbedthem. Then, he put on clean medical gloves.

"Is there a problem with the wound?" asked Johann. Luca did not make it clear when she told him shewas coming here.

"No, I came to remove the stitches," explained Luca as she unwrapped her bandage.

"Remove the... stitches?" Johann was surprised. He counted the days and realized it had not been aweek.

Luca nodded. "I can feel that my wound is a few times itchier than yesterday. It's probably healed.That's why I came to find you."

After that, the bandage on her hand was removed. She thrust out her hand and said, "The stitches canbe removed, right?"

Johann took a close look at her wound. He was surprised to see that her wound was already healed!

"That's fast. Dr. Craw, how?" He could not help but become serious.

Luca had no choice but to come up with an excuse. "It's probably because I've been using my ownmedicine powder. Even though you gave me the medicine to clean my wound, I didn't use it. I was

using the medicine powder I made myself. The effects are good, so my wound healed quickly."

If Johann had not seen it for himself, he would not have believed that. Then, he questioned, "Is theresuch a good medicine powder? Dr. Craw, are you selling it? I sometimes run into patients who healmuch slower than others after I perform surgery on them. Your medicine powder will be a great help tothem."

Luca shook her head and replied, "My medicine powder isn't FDA-approved. The hospital won't allowyou to use it even if you dare to do so. The patients won't trust the product either."

Her medicine powder could heal wounds faster, but it had not been through clinical trials. Hence, therewas no way the product could be launched in the market.

Besides, it was Shanks' recipe. Shanks did not agree to let Luca use it, so she could not just give it tosomeone else.

“Well, you can make it legal with your identity. Perhaps you can apply for a patent too." Johannreminded her, and he sent a message to the intern in passing, asking him to bring a suture removal kitinto his office.
