Nina knew that she had no other choice. Jean would not give her their mother's handbag, and the nurse would not run the tests if she had to go home to bring the debit card.
She could not tell if Anna's condition was critical, and she could not afford to take the risk.
She nodded and said, "Alright, I'll borrow some money from you. When I get home later, I'll transfer the money to your bank account."
"Give me the bills. I'll go and pay," Luca said.
Nina handed the bills to Luca, and Luca went to the payment counter.
Nina turned to speak to the nurse, "My friend is paying the bills now, Miss. Can you schedule the tests for my mother?"
The nurse thought that Nina seemed trustworthy. She nodded and said, "Alright. I'll bring your mother to the next test then."
Jean watched Luca as she walked away. Instead of worrying about his mother, he smiled perversely and asked Nina, "Hey, Nina, is that chick your friend?"
"I don't care if you want to flirt with other girls, Jean, but you'd better not touch her!" Nina warned him. She knew what he was thinking.
Jean ignored her warning. To him, there were only two categories of women: those who caught his interest and those who did not.
Luca happened to belong to the former category.
"Why didn't you tell me that you have such a high-quality friend? Her figure is not bad, and even though she dresses modestly, those clothes aren't cheap. Mind introducing her to me?" Jean said.
Nina rolled her eyes at him. "She's way out of your league."
Jean was furious when he heard the contempt in her voice. "What do you mean? I'm only like this thanks to your good friend Bianca!"
He blamed his current condition on Bianca.
Nina realized that she could not make Jean change his mind. He had been living in his own world for far too long, and he had an overinflated opinion of himself.
In truth, he was nothing but a total loser.
"Stop blaming Bianca. You should know what you did to her. Let me warn you seriously, she's way out of your league, and you can't afford to offend her." Nina wanted to make it sound serious so that Jean would stay away from Luca.
"Heh, you underestimate me! I'll charm that friend of yours, Nina, and she'll be your sister-in-law!" Jean was not going to shy away from a challenge. After all, if Luca were as outstanding as Nina said, he would not have to worry about money for the rest of his life.
Nina rolled her eyes and looked away.
Luca met Johann at the payment counter. After Johann spoke to a patient's family members, he went toward Luca and said, "Fancy meeting you here, Dr. Craw. Are you feeling unwell?"
Luca shook her head and said, "No. My friend's mother is in the hospital, and I came along with my friend to see if I can be of any help."
Johann immediately understood that Luca was paying the bill on behalf of her friend.
"I'm glad to hear that you're fine. I have to rush to another operation. Bye," he said and waved his hand.
Luca waved back at him. Her number was called, and she handed the counter the bills and paid for them.
After Johann left, he took out his phone and sent a message to Luke, telling him that he had met Luca at the hospital.
