Bianca was not very happy when she heard that. She was expecting Luke to take care of her.
She slowly opened her eyes. She did not have to pretend that she was weak because she was already uncomfortable enough.
"I'm not feeling very well, Luke," Bianca said softly to evoke Luke's pity. At the same time, she was wondering why her temperature was so low even though she felt much worse.
"You'll be fine. Just have some rest." Luke tucked her in, though he suddenly thought of Luca at that moment. Luca must have suffered a lot when she was fighting the effects of the drug, but she said nothing at all. Instead, she had closed her eyes and grabbed onto the bed sheets tightly.
When Luke stepped out of the bathroom in the hotel, he noticed the creases on the bedsheets and realized that she had not complained one bit.
"Luke…" Bianca wanted to tell Luke to accompany her, but she could not finish her sentence.
Luke came to his senses. By comparing the two women who were feeling unwell at the same time, Luca's resilience was a stark contrast to Bianca's weakness.
"Rest well." He stood up and told the caretaker, "Take care of Madam."
"Yes," the caretaker replied as she watched Luke leave the room.
She had been working in Crawford Manor for two years. Whenever she chatted with the other caretakers who had worked there for longer, they would always talk about how things were in the past.
They said that Bianca used to be very caring toward the servants in the household and how Luke had loved Bianca and would do everything for her.
The caretaker shook her head. Things were not the case now.
Luke did not seem like he loved Bianca, and Bianca was not as approachable as the others said.
Bianca lay on the bed with her eyes closed. Without looking, she could tell that Luke had already left the room.
He had left just like that, not caring that she was getting sicker and sicker in bed.
The caretaker saw that Bianca was sweating again, so she wiped her forehead with a towel.
Bianca wanted to say something, but she did not have the strength to do so. She could feel her condition deteriorating fast.
She could not tell the caretaker to inform Luke about her condition. With no other choice, she closed her eyes and soon fell asleep.
Luke returned to the study. Ever since that moment in the bedroom, his thoughts were occupied with images of Luca, and he could not calm himself down at all.
Under the influence of the drug, Luca seemed so charming.
He admitted that he was bewitched at that moment, and he would not have been able to resist it if not for his mental fortitude.
As he sat in his executive chair, he could not stop thinking about Luca, and he was getting more and more aroused.
"Damn it," he cursed. He turned on his computer and contacted Gale.
"How is the investigation coming along?" He asked.
Gale frowned and replied, "Things aren't going smoothly, Boss. It's as though this Luca woman never existed. We couldn't find anyone who knows her over here, and her identity and background are, as far as we can tell, non-existent."
"She can't possibly have a non-existent background unless she made up her identity," Luke said.
Gale nodded and understood what he meant. He continued, "Yes. Gale and I will continue to investigate this."
"Mm." Luke nodded.
The night passed uneventfully.
Near dawn, the caretaker knocked on the door of the study hurriedly.
