Chapter 1241 Asking Luca for Help
"I'd like to meet my mother." Bianca might be suffering from a high fever, but her mind was still lucid.
She knew that her fever would eventually subside, and Luke would not stay by her side for long. Shehoped that Queenie would see her in her current condition and get Luke to care for her more.
Even though no one told her about it, Bianca knew that Queenie's condition was getting better by theday, and the situation of the Normans became better and better. That was beneficial for the Crawfords -- Luke might be standing at the pinnacle of the business world, but that did not mean that he wasimmune from danger.
"But I don't know how to contact your mother," the nurse said helplessly, not suspecting anything. Afterall, it was normal for a very ill patient to miss their parents.
"My phone..." Bianca shook her head. Her head was spinning under the effect of the pill, and as muchas she wanted to sleep, she could not sleep just yet. "The phone's passcode is 0218. Help me give hera call." "Alright." The nurse immediately did what she was told. She took Bianca’s phone, unlocked it,found Queenie's number, and gave her a call.
It was already past midnight, and the phone was only answered after some time.
The nurse told Queenie about Bianca's situation as well as Bianca's wish.
Queenie immediately sat up when she heard that. She told Jack about it, after which they hastilychanged their clothes and rushed to the hospital.
After the nurse ended the call, she told Bianca in a gentle voice, "Don't worry, I've already told yourmother about it. She's rushing over to the hospital with your father."
Bianca smiled after she heard that. Then, she fell asleep.
After Luke arrived at the hospital, he went to find out Bianca's condition first.
Bianca's face was red from the high fever, but her lips were pale.
"What's wrong with her?" Luke frowned and asked the nurse.
"The doctor gave her an injection earlier, but it doesn't seem to have any effect on her. We'll try to lowerher temperature through physical means," the nurse answered while she prepared the alcohol solution.
Luke frowned even harder.
"Right, Mr. Crawford, Dr. Blake is waiting for you in his office," the nurse remembered what the headphysician told her. He was working overtime because of Bianca's condition, and just as he expected,her situation worsened.
Mm." Luke shot a glance at the unconscious Bianca on the bed, then left the room.
He was not worried because there was a nurse to take care of her.
Luke went to the head physician's office, knocked on the door, and went inside.
Dr. Blake was checking some information on his computer. When he saw Luke coming in, heimmediately stood up and said courteously, "Please have a seat, Mr. Crawford."
Luke sat down on the couch and glared at Dr. Blake with a penetrating gaze. "What's going on with mywife?"
The doctor sighed. "We don't know. Mrs. Crawford doesn't allow us to conduct a blood test on her. Iwant to meet you so that you can give us consent to take her blood sample for a test."
Dr. Blake thought that Bianca only had a regular fever. He was quite grateful toward Johann for givinghim a good opportunity to gain Luke's favor, but he did not expect that things would be so troublesome.
Bianca's fever rose and fell, and Dr. Blake realized that her condition was not as straightforward as hehad expected. It would not have been as difficult if the patient would let him take a blood sample, butthe patient was being uncooperative.
Luke took the consent form and browsed through it. Then, he signed at the end of the document.
"When are you taking her blood sample?" Luke asked, thinking that he should stay by her side whenher blood was taken.
When Bianca's fever rose again, the doctor had already checked with the caretaker when Bianca lastate. He replied, "I can take her blood sample in an hour." "Get the sample analyzed as soon as youcan. I'd like to know her condition, " Luke stood up and said.
He was not happy that Bianca's condition did not get any better, but he also understood that he couldnot blame the doctor for it.
After all, she refused to provide a blood sample and had even deliberately eaten so that they could nottake her blood.
Dr. Blake felt slightly relieved when he saw that Luke did not voice out his dissatisfaction. "Yes. We'llexpedite her test."
After getting the doctor's reassurance, Luke left the office. When he returned to Bianca's room, Jackand Queenie were already sitting there.
Luke, what's going on with Bianca?" Queenie asked Luke anxiously when she saw him coming into theroom.
"The doctor is going to conduct a blood test. He'll let us know once he has the results." Luke was quitesurprised to see them there. "You should go home and rest first." "With Bianca like that, I won’t be ableto sleep." Queenie sighed. "The nurse told me that she wanted to meet me, so I'll wait here until shewakes up. She needs to know that she's not going through this alone.”
Luke could see that Queenie was very worried. He did not convince her to go home.
Queenie's health had improved greatly after taking Luca's medication, so she could stay up half of thenight without any ill effects on her body.
"I'll get the nurse to bring another bed in, Mom. If you're tired, you can rest for a while," Luke said.
"I'll be fine. I can rest on the couch." Queenie sighed again after looking atnovelbin
Bianca on the bed. "How did she get so sick?"
Luke sat down on the single-seater couch. "The doctor will be collecting her blood sample in an hour.""Mm." Queenie and Jack exchanged glances and sighed again. "I've heard from the caretaker thatBianca has been sick for several days." "Mm. Her condition hasn't been improving." Luke did not hidethe truth from Queenie.
"Why didn't any of you tell me about it?" Queenie sounded accusatory when she said that.
The caretaker spoke up. "Madam's condition wasn't so bad earlier. The doctor told her that he wantedto take a blood sample just in case, but Madam refused. She knew that she shouldn't eat before ablood test, but she deliberately ate breakfast just so that she could skip the test."
Queenie thought about it and realized that she could not blame Luke for Bianca's illness. She shookher head and said, "Bea should've known better.
Luke did not say anything.
"Luke, why don't we hire Ms. Craw to take care of Bea? It's better than letting her condition worsen,"Queenie suggested.
She could not bear to see her daughter suffer, and she had thought of Luca's amazing medical skills.
Even though Luca said that she had diagnosed Queenie's illness by pure chance, Queenie thought thatshe was only being humble.
