Chapter 1431

Nina knew that she had no other choice. Jean would not give her their mother’s handbag, and thenurse would not run the tests if she had to go home to bring the debit card.

She could not tell if Anna’s condition was critical, and she could not afford to take the risk.

She nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll borrow some money from you. When I get home later, I’ll transfer themoney to your bank account.”

“Give me the bills. I’ll go and pay,” Luca said.

Nina handed the bills to Luca, and Luca went to the payment counter.

Nina turned to speak to the nurse, “My friend is paying the bills now, Miss. Can you schedule the testsfor my mother?”

The nurse thought that Nina seemed trustworthy. She nodded and said, “Alright. I’ll bring your motherto the next test then.”

Jean watched Luca as she walked away. Instead of worrying about his mother, he smiled perverselyand asked Nina, “Hey, Nina, is that chick your friend?”

“I don’t care if you want to flirt with other girls, Jean, but you’d better not touch her!” Nina warned him.She knew what he was thinking.

Jean ignored her warning. To him, there were only two categories of women: those who caught hisinterest and those who did not.

Luca happened to belong to the former category.

“Why didn’t you tell me that you have such a high-quality friend? Her figure is not bad, and even thoughshe dresses modestly, those clothes aren’t cheap. Mind introducing her to me?” Jean said.

Nina rolled her eyes at him. “She’s way out of your league.”

Jean was furious when he heard the contempt in her voice. “What do you mean? I’m only like thisthanks to your good friend Bianca!”

He blamed his current condition on Bianca.

Nina realized that she could not make Jean change his mind. He had been living in his own world forfar too long, and he had an overinflated opinion of himself.

In truth, he was nothing but a total loser.

“Stop blaming Bianca. You should know what you did to her. Let me warn you seriously, she’s way outof your league, and you can’t afford to offend her.” Nina wanted to make it sound serious so that Jeanwould stay away from Luca.

“Heh, you underestimate me! I’ll charm that friend of yours, Nina, and she’ll be your sister-in-law!” Jeanwas not going to shy away from a challenge. After all, if Luca were as outstanding as Nina said, hewould not have to worry about money for the rest of his life.

Nina rolled her eyes and looked away.

Luca met Johann at the payment counter. After Johann spoke to a patient’s family members, he wenttoward Luca and said, “Fancy meeting you here, Dr. Craw. Are you feeling unwell?”

Luca shook her head and said, “No. My friend’s mother is in the hospital, and I came along with myfriend to see if I can be of any help.”

Johann immediately understood that Luca was paying the bill on behalf of her friend.

“I’m glad to hear that you’re fine. I have to rush to another operation. Bye,” he said and waved hishand.

Luca waved back at him. Her number was called, and she handed the counter the bills and paid forthem.

After Johann left, he took out his phone and sent a message to Luke, telling him that he had met Lucaat the hospital.

Luca did not know that Johann was such a nosy person. After paying, she left with the receipt.

Nina was still waiting at the same place. When she saw Luca coming over, she went toward her andasked, “How much is it?”

“Not much. Here’s the receipt,” Luca said and handed the receipt and Anna’s documents to her.

The costs included the resuscitation fee and the fees for the tests.

Nina had a rough idea of how much it should cost. She looked at the receipt and saw that the figurewas not too far away, so she was sure that Luca did not hide any receipts from her. She smiled andsaid, “Thank you, Luca. I’ll transfer the amount to you when I get home.”

“There’s no rush,” Luca said, though she did not stop Nina from paying her back.

Jean was eavesdropping on their conversation. He went up to Luca and said, “So your name’s Luca.”

Luca glanced at Jean. She realized that she was once deceived by his fake personality, and he hadfinally revealed his true colors.novelbin

She felt sorry for Nina that her brother was like that.

Nina knew what she was thinking. She pulled Luca behind her and said, “Why are you still standinghere like an idiot, Jean? Go and check on Mom!”

Jean pretended not to hear her. He stared at Luca and said, “Hey, my name’s Jean, and I’m Nina’selder brother. I wanted to ask Nina for your name, but she wouldn’t tell me. Can you give me yourphone number? I’ll contact you to pay you back for the bills.”

Nina bit her lower lip. She knew that Jean was not going to pay Luca back.

Luca also knew that. She tried to keep her disgust down and refused politely, “It’s fine. Nina will pay meback.”

“I’m her elder brother, and I’d like to shoulder some of her responsibility too.” Jean did not give up.

Luca might believe him if she had not seen how he treated Nina earlier. She was not an idiot.

She was not going to let Jean harass her, so she said, “If you want to share your younger sister’sresponsibility, then you can transfer the money to her, and I’ll get it from her. I don’t give my contactnumber to strangers.”

‘You fool!’ Jean thought. He was quite frustrated after being rejected twice.

However, he maintained his smile to give a good impression to the beautiful woman. “I can’t trust Ninathough. What if she doesn’t give my money to you?”

Nina rolled her eyes again. How dare Jean throw her under the bus just to flirt with Luca?

How shameless!

Nina wished that a hole would appear under her feet and swallow her up so that she would have todeal with that embarrassment of a brother ever again.

“Didn’t you say earlier that you don’t have any money? Where are you getting your money from?” Lucasaid. She had run out of patience with him.

For some reason, Jean felt his temper rise suddenly. The woman’s words and demeanor made himthink of Bianca…

He clenched his fists tightly.

Luca noticed that, and she immediately became wary.

“Are Anna O’Reilly’s family members here?” Just when the situation was becoming tense, they heard anurse shouting.
