In the afternoon, Tina bought some fruits from the supermarket downstairs and came to Luca's room.
After Luca opened the door, Tina glanced at her and asked, "Is Mr. Crawford still inside?"
"He left quite some time ago," Luca explained hastily in case Tina misunderstood something.
Seeing that Luca was quite nervous, Tina waved her hand and smiled. "Don't worry. I didn't tell anyone what happened earlier this morning. I know Mr. Crawford's character, and I don't think he'd do anything out of line."
Tina walked in, and Luca closed the door.
Tina placed the bag of fruits on the coffee table and said, "I was at the supermarket buying some fruits earlier, and I accidentally bought some extra. Here, have some."
"Thank you." Luca did not refuse. She knew that Tina had specifically bought the fruits for her.
"Right, do you feel better now? I was so afraid earlier. If I had known that you can't swim, I wouldn't have goaded you into competing." Tina felt guilty even though she was not to blame for what happened to Luca.
If Luca had not stepped into the pool, she would not have nearly drowned.
"I don't blame you. I didn't do my warm-up exercises." Luca did not expect her leg would cramp either.
After all, she only wanted to participate and was not interested in winning. That was why she did not make adequate preparations before stepping into the pool.
"I'm glad that you're fine. Right, do you want to go hiking tomorrow?" Tina asked.
"Hiking?" Luca frowned. She would rather stay in the hotel. If she wanted to visit some attractions near the hotel, she would rather do so herself.
"Yup, Mount Jadeite near here is a famous attraction. I've heard that the scenery there is breathtaking this time of the year. Do you want to go?" Tina asked.
"I don't think I'd want to go. I don't like crowded places," Luca said while shaking her head. She would not want to join unless it was mandatory.
"Don't overthink it. There won't be that many people this time. I'd love to go there, but the other people find it too tiring, so I haven't found anyone else to go with me. There are cable car stations along the mountain. If you're tired of walking, we can take the cable car to the top. Why don't you come with me, Dr. Craw?" When Tina cleaned Luca earlier in the morning, she noticed that Luca had a good physique resulting from working out.
She guessed that Luca must love sports and the outdoors.
The other female colleagues are not fond of tiring activities, and she did not want to invite any male colleagues. That was why Tina wanted to invite Luca; it was better than going alone.
"I think I'll make my decision when I see my condition tomorrow," Luca said.
She was quite tempted by the invitation. However, her leg had just suffered a cramp, and she did not know if it would still be painful by tomorrow morning.
It was then that Tina remembered Luca had suffered a leg cramp earlier. "Right! I'm so sorry, Dr. Craw. I forgot."
"If my leg is fine by tomorrow, I'll go with you," Luca said. She could not make the promise just yet.
If her leg was still hurting, she would not torture herself by hiking.
In any case, she would love to go. She had been under a lot of pressure lately, and viewing some beautiful scenery might ease her mood a little.
"Don't worry. You don't have to push yourself if you can't make it. Please rest well, Dr. Craw. Right, I've also bought some ointment for you. I'll put it next to the fruits. You should massage your calf after taking a shower later tonight. You'll feel better," Tina said.
Luca thanked her and wanted to pay her for it.
Tina smiled and waved her hand. "It's fine. It didn't cost me money anyways."
"Wha…" Luca was taken aback. How did Tina buy something from the supermarket without using money?
