Queenie understood that one should not judge another by their appearance alone.
Even though she had a good impression of Luca in the few times they interacted, she could understand why Bianca felt uneasy.
"Don't worry. I'll keep an eye on Luke," Queenie comforted her. She knew that Luke was not flirtatious, but many women had tried to get on his good side over the past three years.
Bianca took Queenie's hand and pretended to look grateful. "You're so nice to me, Mom."
"I'm your mother, silly girl. No matter what happens, I'll be by your side. Don't worry. Luca is only close to me because she treated my illness. I'll make sure that they don't have any private affairs." Queenie patted Bianca's head.
Meanwhile, after Luke left the hospital, he sped back to T Corporation.
Tommy was sitting in the backseat. He thought for a while and said, "Daddy, shouldn't you let Ms. Luca know that her concoction works?"
"Mm." Luke nodded.
"Let me tell her then!" Tommy said while grinning. "Give me your phone, Daddy."
Luke ignored his son. He wore his Bluetooth headset and gave Luca a call.
At that moment, Luca was verifying the experiment data in the laboratory. If there were no problems, she could proceed to the next stage of research.
Her phone began to ring, and she answered it while keeping her eyes focused on the data table. "Hello."
"Are you busy?" Luke asked. It was the first time that Luca had picked up her call so quickly.
Luca's motions paused for a split second. She was busy with her work and had forgotten to look at the call notification before answering the call.
"Mm," she replied in a soft voice.
Luke could sense Luca's change in tone from friendly to distant in that singular syllable, and that had frustrated him greatly. "Your concoction works. Bianca's fever subsided."
"That's good to know," Luca said coldly.
The man suddenly fell silent, and Luca could hear Tommy blabbering next to him. "Give me the phone, Daddy. I want to talk to Ms. Luca…"
Luca took a deep breath. Even though she was only interacting with Luke through a phone call, she could feel his presence exuding immense pressure. However, she was not the Bianca from before, and she would not yield so easily.
She broke the silence. "She'll have to keep on drinking the concoction."
"For how long?" Luke's voice had also turned cold.
"Until her fever goes down completely. It should take a month," Luca said.
"Okay." Luke committed those words to memory. He was not too concerned about Bianca's condition, but rather, he did not want anything bad to happen to her.
Knowing that Luke had gotten the point, Luca suddenly felt her heart wrench. "Is there anything else, Mr. Crawford?"
"That's all," Luke said.
When Tommy heard that, he immediately yelled, "There's something else, Ms. Luca! Can I come to your house for dinner tonight? Don't worry, I'll get Daddy to buy all the ingredients you need and more!"
"…" "…" Luca and Luke were both speechless.
Tommy leaned against the front seat and asked, "Daddy, what did Ms. Luca say?"
Luca had heard Tommy's request over the phone. If only Tommy came alone, she would gladly welcome him. However, she knew that Luke would definitely tag along. "I have to work overtime today, so I won't be able to take care of Tommy. Bye."
"Mm," Luke replied, but Luca had already ended the call.
