Chapter 1912

Keith shouted. He was thinking if Tyrone could not get past this crisis, he would just have to drag inanother scapegoat. With that, he would be able to reap more benefits.

"You can't begin to imagine how capable she is." Luke glanced at him with a cold gaze.

Keith could not help but shudder. Although Luke's leg was fractured and put in a cast, so he wasunable to stand, Keith could not help but feel scared when he lowered his head and looked into Luke'seyes.

Luke's aura was way too domineering.

"I don't care. This lady will not escape if anything happens," Keith pointed at her and said arrogantly.

"Shut up! I'll take full responsibility for whatever happens." Luke had a cold glare. He then turned tolook at Luca.

The moment he fixed his gaze on Luca, his eyes immediately looked gentle and helpless. "Why did youwant to rescue this man?"

"I was just thinking of helping Nina." Luca did not wish for others to know that she had such extensivemedical knowledge. However, at that moment, she had no choice but to reveal it for the sake of Nina'sfuture.

"Alright." Luke did not blame her for being a busybody. She was the type of person who would makesacrifices for her friends.

Bianca used to be like that too, and now, so was Luca.

Keith heard Luca mentioning Nina, and it made him recall that they were both talking happily outsidethe ward not too long ago.

"Oh, now I remember. You know that lady, Nina. Could it be that Nina isn't willing to continue paying formy cousin's medical fees since his condition is too complicated? Hence, she asked you to come hereand kill my brother?"

"Your brother has been rescued. I didn't harm him at all." Luca could tell Luke was staring at her andfelt helpless. She could not be bothered to explain it in detail. After all, once the doctor confirmed thatthe patient was no longer in danger, he would step out here and explain things.

However, Luke was here now and she felt the urge to explain.

Luke was not a quack doctor...

She would not simply go around harming patients' lives.

"Just because you said you rescued the patient, does that make it the truth? No, I have to make apolice report.” Keith took out his phone and was about to make a call

Luke looked at him coldly. "Do you dare to?"

Keith was stunned at that. He had dialed 999 but was dumbfounded now and did not tap the callbutton.

At that moment, the doctor in the ward came out and said, "Be quiet. The patient has indeed beenrescued."

Keith was shocked and looked at the doctor, then at Luca. It was obvious that he did not believe acaretaker could save someone's life. "Really?"novelbin

"Yes. Your brother had pericardial bleeding and an accumulation of blood. From there on, it affected alot of his bodily functions. However, most of the fluids had been drained and all that's left to do is to

ensure his health is stable. His heart will be able to reabsorb the fluids,” said Dr. Simmons. He lookedat Luca. He did not expect that she would have such skills.

When she was draining the fluids, she drained from an angle that was not according to the usual spotbut chose a riskier spot.

However, if one took this approach, the damage to the heart was minimal. Besides, under thecircumstances where there was no monitoring equipment, it would drain out much more fluidscompared to the traditional approach.

In a nutshell, if there was monitoring equipment available, even competent doctors may not choose toinject the needle in that spot.

However, taking that approach would indeed be a faster method to stop the patient's condition fromworsening compared to taking the traditional approach. Of course, that was only if there was nodamage to the other areas of the heart.

Keith was still feeling suspicious. "You're saying that my brother's pericardial bleeding is due to a heartproblem, but there were no such problems during the initial check-up.”

"Some problems can't be detected immediately. After all, the structure of the human body is verycomplex. Besides, your brother was in the ICU for the past few days. The medications and treatmentprovided stabilized his condition. Perhaps the medications had masked his heart problems. Evenduring the follow-up treatment, the patient didn't mention that he felt any discomfort in his heart. Hence,situations like these are very normal," Dr. Simmons explained.

Luca nodded, conveying that she agreed with what he said.

Luke saw her gestures and had a dark complexion while looking at Dr. Simmons. "So, there's no issuewith the emergency rescue she conducted?"

"Not only is there no problem, but she was also able to quickly rescue the patient with minimal damage.If there was a recording, I think the content and information should be published in medical journalsand textbooks."

Luke ignored what he said later on. All he wanted to know was that Luca would be fine. "If there'snothing else, we'll be heading back to our ward."

"Alright." Dr. Simmons was still suspicious of Luca's medical skills. However, he gave in afterwitnessing the accuracy of her injection earlier.

"Push me back," Luke said.

Luca nodded and pushed Luke's wheelchair back to the ward.

Keith did not stop them.

When they returned to the ward, Luca asked, "What's the result, Mr. Crawford?"

"I'm not a doctor. How would I know?" Luke looked at her. "Why don't you check it for me?"

Luca's face went red as she moved her gaze away. She said helplessly, "Stop joking, Mr. Crawford.How would I know?"

"You would. Otherwise, how did you manage to rescue that patient?" Luke did not expect Luca to havesuch in-depth medical knowledge.

Initially, he thought that she was just knowledgeable in traditional medicine, so she could take pulsesand knew methods to nourish one's body. Never would he have thought that she was also proficient inJohann's field of work.

Just how many of her secrets was he not aware of?

After all, it was very impressive for an ordinary person to master a skill within three years. However, inthe three years that Luca was kidnapped, she had mastered more than one thing.

"It's just a coincidence that I happen to know a little about it," said Luca.

Luke did not believe that it was a coincidence. "Sometimes, I feel that having you work in T Corporationis a waste.”

"I love my current job." Luca heard what Luke said, which sounded as if he was blaming her forkeeping too many secrets from him.

"Mhm." Luke maneuvered the wheelchair and came to the side of the bed. "Help me up the bed. I wantto read the documents for a little while more."

"Alright." Luca lent him a hand. Then, she supported his waist and helped him up the bed. She passedhim the documents that he had not gone through.

Luke opened the documents and continued working. He did not say another word about the incidentfrom earlier.

After half an hour, Johann was holding onto Luke's health report as he walked into the ward. He saidhappily, "I've gone through your health report. The bleeding hasn't worsened. So, you can bedischarged."

After listening to Johann's words, Luca let out a sigh of relief.

All this while, she had been worried about the hemorrhage in Luke's head. After all, his leg injury wouldheal with time. No sudden issues would occur with that, but it was different in the case of an intracranialhemorrhage.

"I can be discharged?" Luke asked. Initially, he did not wish to be discharged, but after the incidentearlier, he had been thinking about leaving the hospital.
