Female Novel
Chapter 2672
Luca had a false impression that she had returned to the time when she was still Bianca as shelistened to the couple nagging at her and caring for her.
That was how they cared for her back then as well.
It warmed Luca's heart. Before she could say anything, Jack held her hand and pulled her to the sofa,asking her to sit down. He said caringly, “Let me see if it has healed."
“It has. I've removed the stitches and got the wound bandaged up. Dr. Park made sure that it healedbefore he removed the stitches. Don't worry, I followed the doctor's advice." Luca showed them herhand with the bandage on.
Jack let out a sigh of relief when he heard her say Johann had checked it for himself before removingthe stitches. He picked up the teapot and asked, "Would you like to have some tea?"
"It's okay, Mr. Norman. Where did you get the tea set?" Luca asked with curiosity.
It would be great if Jack could enjoy his tea and read the newspapers in his leisure time.
It was just that Luca felt sorry for the two of them.
The hospital was a boring place, after all.
Jack replied happily, "Luke asked Dr. Park to arrange it for me. He was worried that I'd be craving tea.He even asked Dr. Park to get the best tea leaves for me. He's attentive and cares for me."
"Of course. Luke's our son-in-law. He cares for you," Queenie said gently. She picked up another cupof tea and took a sip of it.
Queenie shared the same hobby with Jack after being influenced by him. She enjoyed drinking tea too.novelbin
However, she was not as addicted to tea as Jack was.
Luca smiled. She was happy to hear her parents praising Luke.
Luca felt grateful knowing how much Luke cared for her parents.
Luca was in Mr. and Mrs. Norman's wardroom for a while. She spent some time talking to them. Sheonly left when it was about noontime.
After Queenie watched Luca leave, she shot a glance at Jack. He was still staring at the door with asmile on his face.
The stern expression on Jack's face would be gone and replaced with a smile whenever he met Luca.
Jack took a sip of the tea. He noticed that Queenie was watching him. He touched his face and asked,"What's wrong?"
"Dear, do you realize you're always smiling happily every time Luca shows up?" asked Queenie. Jackwas not a person who liked to smile. He was always serious. He often wore a stern expression on hisface when he was working.
Even his secretary was rigorous when reporting work to him, and he dared not make any mistakes.
Jack would only show his friendly side when he was facing the public.
However, the smile shown on his face a moment ago would only appear when he talked to Biancabefore she lost her memory and Luca.
Jack could not help but secretly think that there was nothing wrong with him smiling at his daughterwhen Queenie asked him such a question.
To an aging father, nothing was dearer than a daughter!
However, Queenie had no idea about Luca's identity, and Jack could not say something like that. Hehad no choice but to say, “I'm afraid that I'll scare her off if I'm too strict with her. She's our savior. I can'thelp but smile when I see her. And don't you feel a sense of familiarity with Luca when you're talking toher?"
Queenie let out a sigh and replied, "Yes. I do. Luca sounds like our daughter, Bianca."
"Yes, she does," replied Jack. He was thinking about what he should buy for Luca as a gift after theygot discharged from the hospital.
They could not acknowledge Luca now, but sending a gift out of courtesy to someone who saved hislife was necessary.
"Queen, I think we should send Luca a gift after we get discharged from the hospital." Jack discussed itwith her.
Queenie nodded and replied, "Don't worry about that. Leave it to me. Men tend to have bad taste inchoosing gifts for others."
"Alright, alright. I'll leave it to you. We must express our gratitude to Luca." Jack patted the back ofQueenie's hands.
The air in Mr. and Mrs. Norman's wardroom was filled with peace. The couple sat on the sofa, enjoyingtheir tea and having a chat. In the meantime, the caretaker and the maid were sitting on another sofa,doing some handicrafts to kill time.
However, the wardroom Leia was staying in was not as harmonious as theirs.
The patient beside Leia's bed was fighting with her family.
It was loud and noisy. Leia was fanning the flames while they argued.
Rage overtook the patient. She was so furious that she wanted to throw a glass at Leia.
If it were not for the caretaker and nurse who stopped her, they might have called the police.
The expression on the patient's face was gloomy. She looked awful.
Leia felt much better now. She had let out all the anger in her from when she met Luca just now. Shefelt relaxed, and she was humming to herself.
The patient on another bed shook her head.
The other patient was dealing with her family matters, but Leia just had to fan the flames as though shewould only feel comfortable seeing them get into a fight.
Anyone would have shaken their head seeing such a difficult person. Meeting her was the unluckiestthing that could ever happen.
Hadley slowly walked into the ward with a lunch box in her hands.
Leia pulled a straight face and asked her when she saw Hadley come back, “What took you so long?Are you slacking off again? Are you trying to starve me to death?"
"Ms. Norman, don't make false accusations. I was getting your lunch. You're such a picky eater. I hadto head to the restaurant outside the hospital to get it for you. Come on, dig in." Hadley set up the smalltable on her bed and placed the lunch box on it.
"Hmph, did you really have to take such a long time?" Leia complained with dissatisfaction.
"The restaurant was packed, and the kitchen was swamped with orders. Ms. Norman, why don't I getyou something at the hospital's restaurant next time if you think it's a long wait?" Hadley discussed itwith her.
"Do you think I can eat the food front here?" Leia opened the lunch box. It was a takeaway.
Leia took a bite and heard Hadley say, "Then you have no choice but to wait. It's not that long either.It's just the right time for lunch."
Leia remained silent and continued to eat her lunch.
Hadley noticed the awful expression of the patient whom Leia disturbed a moment ago. She wasstaring at Leia, and Hadley asked with curiosity, "Mrs. Lane, why do you look upset?"
"I'm fine!" The patient immediately pulled the bed curtain.
Hadley turned to look at another patient. The patient made gestures and mouthed the words, telling herthat the two of them almost got into a fight.
It took a while for Hadley to figure things out.
She did not have to ask anything. It must be Leia who rocked the boat.
Hadley knew that. She sat on the chair and began to carry out the mission Rain assigned her.
She took her phone out and deliberately found the police's announcement. "Huh?"
Leia did not respond.
Hadley continued, "Oh my goodness, there's finally some progress. The police are doing a good job!"
Leia became alert at once, and she asked, "What case is it?"
"Was it the case from four years ago? I'm not sure which year it was. It's the teen suicide case thatshocked the world. The police officers in A City stated that they've found evidence proving the reason
why the teenage girl committed suicide. They've already arrested the suspect," Hadley deliberately saidso, then she looked up and glanced at Leia.
Leia had nothing to do with this case. That was why she took her time to eat her lunch and showed nointerest.
