Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1363

Chapter 1363 She Was Not Happy

Luca was happy that Sue was so hospitable toward her. She took out the ointment from her handbag and asked, "Who's the one who needs medical attention?"

"She's a friend of mine. She's sitting inside," Sue said. They went into the living room and saw Nina sitting on the couch. "This is Nina Langdon, my friend and my colleague at work. Nina, this is Dr. Luca Craw."

Luca looked at Nina and, for a moment, did not know how to react.

She had checked on Nina's condition ever since she returned. At first, she was relieved to find out that Nina was still together with Percy. After all, Percy could protect her.

Now that she looked carefully at Nina, she could tell that Nina was not happy.

Nina had lost a lot of weight, and she was nothing more than skin and bones. Tears welled up in Luca's eyes as she looked at Nina.

"Nice to meet you, Dr. Craw." Nina smiled weakly when she looked at the unfamiliar face. Earlier, Sue had told her briefly about Luca, and she could tell that Sue admired the woman.

She roughly knew who Luca was, and she had heard about Luca's scandal with Luke.

At first, Nina did not have a good impression of Luca.

"Nice to meet you," Luca said and nodded slightly. She noticed that Nina's exposed forearm was red, and several blisters had formed on it.

She quickly handed the ointment to Nina. "This ointment is an antiseptic and a painkiller. You should use it."

Nina took the white, unlabeled tube and looked at it. "I've heard from Sue that you made this yourself."

Luca could tell that Nina was wary. She explained, "Mm, I made this myself. It's entirely made of herbs, and even people with sensitive skin can use it without any side effects."

Sue smiled and said, "You can't find it anywhere else."

Nina nodded and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Luca’s heart wrenched when she heard Nina's distant reply. Even though Nina sounded calm, she could sense the melancholy in her heart.

It seemed that Nina's condition had not become better over the past three years.

Sue said, "Quickly use the ointment, Nina. It's not going to become any better if you only use the ice pack. Alright, I'll go and cook dinner. The caretaker had to leave earlier, so it'll take a little longer. There are drinks and snacks in the fridge, so you can help yourselves with that. Make yourself at home, Luca."

Luca noticed that the caretaker and Jason were not in the house.

She could guess why Jason was not home yet. Amur had deliberately launched an attack on T Corporation's company network, and they must still be busy fixing it.

Even though she knew the reason, Luca asked, "Where's Mr. Doyle?"

"Don't you know? He has to work overtime today because something happened in the company," Sue said. She thought that Luca would have heard about it.

Luca shook his head. "I don't know. Watson isn't in the same building as T Corporation."

"That's true. I guess that's why it didn't affect you." Sue nodded.

Luca saw that Nina was applying the ointment on her arm. She stood up and said, "You're going to cook dinner soon, right? Why don't I help you?"

"Huh?" Sue was surprised. "You're a guest. I can't possibly ask you for help."

"Don't worry about it. You said that you wanted to taste my cooking, right? This is a good opportunity," Luca said as she walked toward the kitchen.
