Chapter 1256 It''s Along the Way


    Luca was silent as she listened to Queenie admonish the caretaker.


    Property of N?)(velDr(a)ma.Org.


    Queenie was a gentle woman, and she would even be kind toward someone who had taken advantage


    of her. However, she used harsh words on the caretaker because of Bianca.


    Luca''s heart wrenched, though at the same time, she felt jealous.


    She should have been the recipient of Queenie''s love and concern. Abel had taken that away from her,


    and she could only bear the pain silently. 1


    The caretaker felt aggrieved. "I don''t make the decisions, Mrs. Norman.


    Madam told me to keep it a secret, and I dared not tell anyone."


    Queenie could empathize with the caretaker, and she could only me Bianca for being ignorant. The


    concoction was supposed to help Bianca feel better, but she had suffered because of her own caprice.


    Queenie looked at Luca worriedly and said, "What should we do now, Luca?


    "Drink the concoction." Luca pulled her hand away and said.


    "Will she recover if she drinks the concoction?" Queenie asked, thinking that it was too easy.


    "I''ll try acupuncture again." Luca turned to look at the nurse and recognized that she was the same one


    asst time.


    "I''ll get the needles ready for you." The nurse immediately knew what to do.


    Luca looked at Dr. ke. "You''re the chief physician, right?" "Yes." "I need a list of drugs you gave her


    when you resuscitated her earlier," Luca said. None of this would have happened if Bianca had drunk


    the concoction daily.


    She had to know the drugs Bianca was given so that she could adjust the dosage.


    Dr. ke looked at her solemn expression and nodded. As he handed her the report, he could not help


    but wonder if the woman knew what she was doing.


    Luca nced at the report. They did not use too many drugs.


    "Maintain the dosage. She''ll have to drink a bowl a day," she said.


    "Yes," the caretaker replied. "I''ll get the cook to prepare a bowl now."


    After the caretaker left hurriedly, the nurse returned with a set of acupuncture needles. Luca took it and


    said coldly, "All of you should leave the room. Close the door behind you."


    Luke was the first to leave, and Queenie and the nurse followed. Only Dr. ke remained in the room.


    "What do you n to do?"


    Luca sat down on the chair next to the bed andid out the items in front of her. "I''m waking Mrs.


    Crawford up."


    Dr. ke frowned. "The patient is unconscious. She can''t possibly wake up now."


    He was very familiar with Bianca''s condition, and he knew that Bianca would not wake up when she


    was still so weak.


    "I have my way of waking her up. You should leave the room; I need to remove her clothes." Luca could


    see the skepticism in the doctor''s eyes, and she did not bother to exin herself.


    Dr. ke could see that Luca was determined. "The patient is very weak now, and you''ll have to bear


    all responsibility if anything happens to her," he said sternly.


    "No problem." Luca nodded. She could understand that the hospital was afraid of getting into trouble,


    especially when the patient was Luke Crawford''s wife.


    Seeing how readily Luca agreed to take responsibility, Dr. ke left the room.


    Luca inserted two needles into Bianca. When she saw Bianca slowly waking up, she removed the


    needles.


    Bianca''s condition was worse thanst time. She was very weak when she woke up.


    "Why is it you again?" She scrunched up her face in disgust after seeing Luca in front of her. She tried


    to sit up, but her body was weak. "What did you do to me? I can''t move my muscles!" "What did I do?


    Your condition is deteriorating abruptly because you didn''t drink the concoction. You were already one


    foot in the grave, but the doctor managed to save you. I can''t stop you if you really want to die. I''ll be


    going to New York in a few days, so if you don''t drink the concoction, I don''t think the doctors can save


    you again." While Luca spoke, she walked toward the door.


    Her tone was filled with impatience. She could not find any sympathy for Bianca when Bianca had done


    that to herself.


    "You!" Bianca''s face was pale with anger. However, she could only swallow her words when she saw


    Luca open the door.


    "She''s awake," Luca told the people waiting outside of the room.


    Dr. ke could not believe it, so he was the first to rush into the room. He saw Bianca sitting on the


    bed, and aside from being a little pale, there did not seem to be anything wrong with her.


    "Mrs. Crawford, are you feeling better?" He asked.


    Bianca blinked. She pretended to be oblivious as she looked at her parents and Luke. "What happened


    to me?" "You had a fever, and you passed out..." Queenie said in equal parts of pity and me. "Why


    didn''t you drink the concoction?" "It''s all my fault, Mom." Bianca lowered her head and pretended to


    apologize, though her gaze became vicious.


    She might have been unconscious, but she remembered the moments before she passed out.


    Her heart had suddenly beat faster, all the nerves in her body seemed to be ripped apart, and cold


    sweat did not stop flowing...


    She could not find anyfort from the increasing agony, and she passed out in half a minute.


    She felt as though she was dying...


    There were several reasons why Bianca did not drink the concoction. Other than the fact that she hated


    Luca, she thought that Luca was only trying to scare her.


    She also knew that she would not gain Luke''s attention if her health improved.


    After the ordeal, she realized that she had to take Luca''s warning seriously.


    She would not be able to win Luke''s heart if she was dead. Also, she could not use her caprice as an


    excuse anymore.


    Queenie could not bear to scold Bianca when she saw her apologize so readily.


    Luca decided that she was done watching the farce unfold. She said, "If there''s nothing else, I think I


    should go back to work."


    Queenie turned to look at Luca and smiled. "Thank you, Luca," she said gratefully.


    "Don''t mention it, Mrs. Norman." Luca nodded and prepared to leave the room.


    Queenie said, "Luke, you should send Luca back."


    She knew that Luca did not drive, and it would be rude if they let Luca leave by cab.


    "Mm.” Luke agreed after seeing that Bianca had recovered.


    Bianca was secretly shocked when she heard that. Queenie had promised her that she would keep an


    eye on Luke, but why did she...


    She was unhappy about it, but she could not air her grievance in front of everyone.


    Luca wanted to refuse, but Luke looked at her straight in the eye and said," It’s along the way.”
