Johann looked at Luca, who was lying on the bed. Indeed, she could not do it herself.
However, the medicine ced here was not for the patient to dress her wound herself. It was for the
nurse to dress her wound when she came in for a ward roundter.
To avoid Luke from carelessly dressing Luca''s wound and leaving a scar on her, Johann cleared his
throat and reminded the man who loved his wife excessively. "The medicine is ced here so that the
professional nurses whoe inter can dress her wound for her.”
Luke stopped opening the medicine bottle at once. He stared at Johann with a trace of me. “You
should''ve told me earlier.”
"Did I really need to say it aloud? The nurse didn''t ask you to dress her wound for her when she ced
the medicine here yesterday." Johann gave him an innocent look.
Although Luke wanted to help Luca, he was not a professional. It would be bad if he hurt Luca and left
a scar on her.
Hence, Luke could not be bothered about his image and chose to put the medicine back.
Johann then asked in a gossipy manner, “What''s wrong with Nina today?”
"It''s because of Percy,” Luke replied, "Last night, Old Master Mallory released the news that Percy and
the daughter of the Johnston family are getting married.”
"Oh, so that''s it. I thought..." Johann shot a nce at his friend and turned to look at Luca. Then, he
said in a shifty manner, "Even Percy is getting married soon. Is it appropriate to let your wife wander
out there?"
Luke gave him a dirty look. Why did he have to mention this? “Don''t you have anything better to do?”
“No, no. I''ve got things to do. Am I not doing a ward round now? Dr. Craw, since you''re not feeling
unwell, I''m off to continue my ward round.” Johann only wanted to fool around for a while. He did not
want to get on Luke''s nerves.
He slipped away and left the ward immediately.
Luca fell into deep thought as she watched Johann leaving the ward.
She knew that her imposter was already dead. However, she did not expect Luke to conceal it from
Johann and the others.
How much longer was he going to hide it.
Luke looked at Luca, who seemed to be deep in thought. He assumed that Johann''s words must have
made her ponder.
"Are you hungry?" He broke the silence.
Luca shook her head and typed on the phone: [I''m not hungry yet.]
"You''ll have to eat something even if you''re not feeling hungry. I''ve asked someone to deliver your
breakfast here. It''s oatmeal again, but it''s not as creamy as yesterday. It''ll taste better than the ones
sold in the hospital''s canteen," said Luke.
Luca could feel his attentiveness for her. It would be nice if she was Bianca now.
[Thank you.] She did not know what to say, so all she could do was to type that on her phone.
After all, Luke was kind to her now simply because she was hurt and he had something to do with it.
Luke''s face darkened when he looked at her polite yet distant words of appreciation. He did not say
anything more.
The wooden door was pushed open again. The nurse carried some tools that were used to dress the
wound into the ward. "Ms. Craw, it''s time to change your dressing."
Luke took the initiative to make way for her at the bedside.
The nurse ced the tray on the chair beside. Then, she picked up the scissors and cut the bandage
on Luca''s forehead. Her wound was cleaned and bandaged in the emergency room before she was
sent up here. Luke had yet to see how deep her wound was. He only calmed down after Johann told
him that the wound was not deep.
However, when he saw the nurse undo the bandage and the wound that had just begun to recover, his
heart tangled inevitably.
The nurse was surprised to see the scab on her wound. "Huh, the wound is already scabbing? You
must have a strong healing ability. This is my first time seeing a wound healing so quickly."
Luca knew it was because of the antidote from the Ind of Despair. As long as the wound did not
worsen, she would heal much quicker than ordinary people.
After all, that kind of medicine could control people, and it could heal people too.
The nurse picked up the povidone and asked her while she was dressing her wound, "Ms. Craw, is it
because of your physique?"
Luca typed: [I''m not sure about that.] The povidone was to clean the wound. It felt cool yet it stung a
little, but she could bear with it.
"Then did your wounds heal faster back then too?" the nurse continued to ask.
Luca continued to type: [I never paid much attention to that.] She could feel that Luke''s gaze had never
moved away from her. She was a little nervous.
Would he discover her abnormality?
They must have done some research on the imposter''s blood when they caught her back then. If they
had discovered that the bloodposition in the fake Bianca''s body had healing abilities, would Luke
be suspicious because of what the nurse is saying now?
Luca was feeling guilty.
The ward door was pushed open once more, and Johann stuck his head out of the door. He had run
into the police officers when he was doing his ward round. He heard that they wanted to inform Luke of
something, so he told them he knew where Luke was. He specially came here to tell him. "Luke, the
police officers are here. They''re looking for you."
Luke turned around and nced at him. When did Johann be a messenger?
Luca blinked her eyes in acknowledgment. The wound on her forehead was still being dressed.
After Luke left the ward, the nurse quickly applied the medicine on Luca''s wound and wrapped the
bandage nicely. She nced at the door. Luke had not returned.
She asked in a low voice, “Were you worried just now?"
Luca was rmed when she heard the nurse lower her voice intentionally. She turned to look at the
nurse.
"You were worried that Luke would link you to the Ind of Despair, right?" the nurse curled the corners
of her lips, smiled, and said.
Luca did not answer her. She did not type on the phone to ask her anything either. It was because she
already knew the nurse was Abel''s subordinate.Têxt ? N?velDrama.Org.
"Boss said your progress is too slow. I intentionally said those things to warn you that if you continue to
be sloppy, Boss will change his n. He''ll let Luke know that you''re someone from the Ind of
Despair. What do you think will happen to you when the timees?" the nurse continued to talk.
Luca remained silent.
If Luke knew that she was from the Ind of Despair and he did not know that she was Bianca, she
knew what would happen to her. There was no need to remind her about that.
She might end up suffering the same fate as her impostor. She would be forced to confess and die...
What Abel meant was, it was either she killed Luke herself or she would get killed by Luke.
There was no way she could have the best of both worlds.
The nurse packed her things slowly. "Don''t try to find another way. There''s no other way. Boss has sent
lots of people to stay close to you. They''re good at hiding, and you won''t be able to notice them. If you
refuse to die like this and leave your precious daughter alone on the Ind of Despair, be good and
listen to what he says. Speed up your progress. You know as well that Boss has little patience."
