Female Novel
Chapter 1662
Luca shot a glance at Luke.
He made an inviting gesture. She turned her head and walked into the villa.
The villa was not big, but it was furnished delicately. It was enough for the two of them to live here.
Luca looked at the front yard that was planted with the flowers that Wanda loved. She could also seesome fruits and vegetables planted in the backyard.
She turned her head and glanced at Luke. She was grateful for what he had done for the Rayne family.
Wanda could never afford to buy such a small villa. It must be Luke who bought the small villa for them.
She was no longer around, but he still treated her family kindly.
Both of them walked into the living room together. Luke had informed Wanda yesterday that he wouldbe bringing someone here to check on the old man's health. Hence, she started preparing delicaciesfrom early in the morning.
Wanda smiled while looking at them, but she was startled for a moment she saw Luca.
She thought Luke would bring an old expert here. She never expected the person he bought to be sucha young, fine woman.
Wanda found her familiar when their eyes met.
Wanda was not the kind of person who would judge a book by its cover. She knew Luke had his reasonfor bringing her here. This woman must be capable.
She smiled and said, " Luke, why don't you introduce her?"
"Aunt, meet Dr. Craw. She's a research professor working in the company, and she has certainattainments in herbal medicine," Luke introduced.
Wanda reached out and took the initiative to greet her. "Ms. Craw, nice to meet you. I'm WandaRayne."
Luca reached out and held her hand. Her eyes were slightly red, but she suppressed the tremor in herheart and tried to sound as calm as possible. "Hello, Ms. Rayne."
Wanda glanced at her hand. It felt so familiar to her that it gave her the feeling as though this womanwas her family.
Luca let go of her hand and glanced around the living room. There was no sign of her grandfather.
She asked, "Where's the patient?"
Wanda was startled for a while when she heard how eager she was to meet Old Man Rayne. She thensaid, "He's still in his room. It's still early. Have you eaten breakfast? I've prepared some food. Wouldyou like to have some?"
Luke knew Luca was anxious when he heard her voice.
It was because Old Man Rayne's health had always been in a poor state. That was why she was soanxious. However, it was strange to see someone so eager to see the patient when it was her first timehere.
He quickly answered, "We've eaten breakfast. Aunt, why don't you bring us to check on Grandpa'shealth condition?"
The way he addressed them was the same as how Bianca used to call them.
Since Luke had mentioned it, Wanda slightly nodded and said, “Sure. He was thrilled after knowing thatyou'll be coming today. He said he'll have a good chat with you. He'd love to play a chess game withyou too. It's been too long since you last came here. He misses you."
Wanda and Old Man Rayne refused to believe that the Bianca who lost her memories was the Biancathey were looking for, but they could not find the true Bianca no matter what. Hence, the only personthey were willing to see was Luke.
All these years, Old Man Rayne had always treated Luke as if he was his biological grandson.
"I've been busy with work. I'll come and visit him often when I'm free." Luke promised.
"Really? After all, Dad is always delighted to see you. He'll be very happy if you can come over to keephim company, play chess, and have some tea with him," Wanda said as she entered Old Man Rayne'sroom together with them.
"Dad, Luke's here. He brought an expert along with him to help you to recover your health," Wandasaid.
When Old Man Rayne heard Luke had arrived, he slowly sat up straight and leaned on the headboard.He put on his custom-made reading glasses and saw that Luke had indeed arrived. He was grinningfrom ear to ear. "Oh, it's really Luke. Luke, come over and sit here."
Luke walked to the bedside and sat down. He held Old Man Rayne's hands. "Grandpa, how have youbeen feeling recently?"
"Same old, same old. Don't worry. It's normal when you get old. Wanda, get the chess set for me. I'dlove to play a game with Luke. It's been a while since someone played chess with me," said Old ManRayne. He wanted to seize the moment to spend some time with him.
Wanda reminded him, saying, "Dad, have you forgotten? Luke brought an expert professor today hereto check on your health. You can't just think about playing chess with him and ignore her."
After Old Man Rayne was reminded about it, he lifted his head and looked in the direction of the door.Someone was standing there.
He could see clearly with his reading glasses on. When he saw her, he found her familiar yet unfamiliarat the same time. He asked, "Luke, is she the expert you told me about?"
"Yes, her name is Luca Craw," Luke introduced.
Luca looked at Old Man Rayne, and the emotions in her heart started surging. After all these years, OldMan Rayne had gotten so much older...
There were more wrinkles on his face, and his eyes had become dull because of the sickness thattortured him. His body looked a lot weaker.
Luca clenched her fists, swallowing the lump in her throat. She suppressed the urge to cry and cameover to greet him, “Hello, Old Man Rayne."
“Hello, nice to meet you. Your family name is Craw, right? You seem familiar to me. Wanda, do we haveany relatives with the family name Craw?" Old Man Rayne stared at Luca, his eyes fixed on her. He feltlike he had seen her before.
Wanda also found Luca familiar, but sure enough, they did not have any distant relatives with the familyname Craw. They had not seen Luca before either.
“No, we don't. She's an expert. It's the first time we're meeting," she replied.
Luke looked at both the grandfather and granddaughter. Although the relationship between biologicalrelatives was the hardest to overlook, Luca had spent more than 20 years with them. They had noblood relations but were familiar with each other.
Luke said, “Yes, this is Dr. Craw who came back from overseas. Grandpa, are you feelinguncomfortable lately? Let her check your pulse for you and give you a prescription to recover yourhealth. You'll feel much better then."
Old Man Rayne reached out his hand, saying in a teasing manner, “How will I ever recover? I've beenlike this for so many years. Sigh, it's endless."
“Please don't say that." Luca was on the verge of crying when she heard that.
“You have to admit such things when you're old. Come on, young lady. I didn't expect you to be anexpert when you're still so young. What a great achievement." Old Man Rayne did not look down onLuca just because she was young.
Wanda carried a chair over and put it beside the bed.
Luca sat down and placed her slightly shaking hands on Old Man Rayne's pulse.novelbin
After a minute, she signaled him to switch to another hand. Then, she continued to check his pulse.
After checking his pulse, she observed Old Man Rayne's face. She confirmed the old man's healthcondition with Wanda and made a clinical diagnosis.
