"Alright, noted." Luca took Johann''s words to heart.


    She knew that Old Man Rayne had only passed one hurdle thus far, and there were many more


    hurdles toe.


    It would be too difficult for the old master to face these obstacles alone, so they had to face them


    together.


    Johann looked at the three of them and reminded them, "Visitors aren''t allowed in the ICU ward now,


    so go get some rest ande back tomorrow. Perhaps Old Man Rayne would be awake then."


    "Sure, thanks a lot." Luke held Luca''s hand. All they could do now was wait for news from the ICU.


    Then, he said, "One more thing."


    "What is it?" Johann was listening.


    "Tell them not to talk about Old Man Rayne''s illness in front of Aunt Wanda," said Luke.


    The nurses were not aware of the rtionship between Old Man Rayne and Wanda, and they would


    often discuss patients'' conditions. He feared Wanda would hear them talk about Old Man Rayne being


    hospitalized.


    ording to Wanda''s personality, she would me herself for not being by his side and caring for him


    if she found out. She would think it was her fault that he fell sick, and she would not focus on her own


    recovery.


    "Sure, no problem." Johann agreed without hesitation and looked at Luca sympathetically.


    Two of her rtives were hospitalized and had to get surgery back to back. If this happened to


    someone else, they would have broken down long ago, but Luca seemed fine. Although sadness could


    be seen in her eyes, she did not break down and cry.


    Sure enough, people changed over time. Bianca used to be so weak in the past. Although she seemed


    strong, her weak personality made everyone pity her. Besides, with Luke protecting her, anyone with a


    brain would not dare to offend her.


    They dared not provoke her because she had Luke to rely on.


    Now, she had gotten so much stronger that she did not need to rely on Luke to scare people away.


    She had be so strong and capable that she was even known as a legendary figure in this hospital


    after word spread about the rehabilitation therapy she did for that little brat in the Norman family. She


    knew much more than the doctors in the hospital who went to medical school for many years.


    After Johann left, Luke took Luca''s hand and walked to the parking lot.


    When they got to the parking lot, Luke opened the passenger seat door and said, "Let''s go home."


    Luca nodded and looked back at the hospital building, hesitant to speak.


    Luke knew that if he did not leave with Luca, she would just be waiting outside of the ICU for the doctor


    to say that Old Man Rayne had passed the critical stage and could be transferred to the general ward.


    "Don''t worry, Johann is there," said Luke.


    Johann would probably stay at the hospital for the next two days.


    Although Johann did not hold any titles, as a highly-skilled doctor, the treatment he received from the


    hospital was no worse than that of a director or deputy director.


    He had his own lounge in the hospital, so staying there for a few days was not a problem.


    Luca knew that she could not stay here and keep an eye on the old man, so she nodded and got in the


    car.


    Luke closed the passenger door and drove off.


    The next day, there was no news of the old man from the ICU. However, Johann told Luke and Luca


    that Old Man Rayne had woken up. He said the old man should stay in the ICU for another day.


    After getting the news, Luca calmed down. Although she was still worried about the old man''s


    condition, his waking up was good news.


    She walked into Wanda''s ward with a thermos sk.


    Wanda noticed Luca walking in, so she smiled and said, "Luca, you''re here."


    She had not seen Luca in two days, so she was smiling when she saw hering.


    "Yes, I''m not that busy at work today. Ms. Rayne, how have you been feeling the past two days?" Luca


    could note to the hospital often because of various reasons, but she did message Wanda to check


    up on her as she was concerned.


    "I''m good." Wanda smiled.


    Luca gave the thermos sk to Mrs. Lane before walking to the chair beside the bed. She carefully


    observed Wanda''splexion. "Ms. Rayne, yourplexion doesn''t seem too good. Are you feeling


    any difort?"


    Seeing her concerned look, Wanda smiled and shook her head. "No, I''m getting better day by day."


    Luca frowned and looked at Mrs. Lane, who was pouring out the soup.


    Mrs. Lane''s eyes met Luca''s, and she knew what she was going to ask, so she said, "Ms. Rayne


    couldn''t sleep well yesterday, so herplexion doesn''t look great. The doctor came to check on her,


    and he said that everything is fine."


    Luca was slightly shocked, then she looked at Wanda. "Ms. Rayne, why didn''t you rest well? If you''re


    experiencing insomnia, the doctor can prescribe you some sleeping pills."

    Wanda shook her head and confessed, "I''ve been sleeping well these days, but for some reason, I felt


    restlessst night. It wasn''t like I was having a heart attack. I just didn''t feel good. When the doctor


    came to check today, he didn''t say anything. Perhaps I slept too much during the day, so that''s why I


    couldn''t sleep at night.."


    Luca sighed inwardly. It was not because she slept too much during the day...


    It could be the father-daughter connection that made Wanda uneasy when Old Man Rayne fell into a


    coma.


    Luca did not know if Wanda had thought that far, so sheughed cooperatively. “I see. It''s best not to


    sleep too much during the day, or else you won''t be able to sleep at night. Not only will it worsen your


    complexion, but it''ll also affect your body too."


    Then, she added, "How about this? Next time, I''ll add some herbs that''ll calm your nerves."


    "That''s too much work, Luca. I''m pretty much all recovered. After the chemotherapy treatment is over, I


    can go home. You don''t have to make soup for me anymore." Wanda did not want to take up Luca''s


    time.


    She knew that Luca did note the past two days because she was busy with work, so she felt bad


    for using her time.


    Patients like her who had their stitches removed could go home and juste to the hospital on the


    day of their chemotherapy appointment.


    However, Wanda was worried that if she kept going back and forth, Old Man Rayne would find out


    about her illness. Thus, she told Luke and the doctor in advance that if chemotherapy was required


    after surgery, she would stay at the hospital until the treatment was done.


    Luke had no objections, and neither did the hospital.


    "It''s not troublesome. It''s actually very easy. I just need to set the timer and the soup will be done by the


    time I get home," said Luca. She did not actually use a timer, but with Aunt Neile''s help, it was not a big


    deal.


    Wanda had nothing to say.


    Mrs. Lane walked to the bed with the pumpkin soup and set up the small table before saying, "Ms.


    Rayne, this is just a small token of appreciation from Ms. Craw, so just ept it. Yourplexion will


    look much better after drinking this pumpkin soup. I''ve seen many cancer patients be much


    weaker after surgery no matter how well they''ve recovered, but look at you; you''re still full of energy.


    This must be because of the soups Ms. Craw prepared for you."
