Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1643

Johann looked at Luca, who was lying on the bed. Indeed, she could not do it herself.

However, the medicine placed here was not for the patient to dress her wound herself. It was for the nurse to dress her wound when she came in for a ward round later.

To avoid Luke from carelessly dressing Luca's wound and leaving a scar on her, Johann cleared his throat and reminded the man who loved his wife excessively. "The medicine is placed here so that the professional nurses who come in later can dress her wound for her.”

Luke stopped opening the medicine bottle at once. He stared at Johann with a trace of blame. “You should’ve told me earlier.”

"Did I really need to say it aloud? The nurse didn't ask you to dress her wound for her when she placed the medicine here yesterday." Johann gave him an innocent look.

Although Luke wanted to help Luca, he was not a professional. It would be bad if he hurt Luca and left a scar on her.

Hence, Luke could not be bothered about his image and chose to put the medicine back.

Johann then asked in a gossipy manner, “What’s wrong with Nina today?”

“It’s because of Percy,” Luke replied, “Last night, Old Master Mallory released the news that Percy and the daughter of the Johnston family are getting married.”

"Oh, so that's it. I thought…" Johann shot a glance at his friend and turned to look at Luca. Then, he said in a shifty manner, "Even Percy is getting married soon. Is it appropriate to let your wife wander out there?"

Luke gave him a dirty look. Why did he have to mention this? “Don’t you have anything better to do?”

“No, no. I’ve got things to do. Am I not doing a ward round now? Dr. Craw, since you’re not feeling unwell, I’m off to continue my ward round.” Johann only wanted to fool around for a while. He did not want to get on Luke’s nerves.

He slipped away and left the ward immediately.

Luca fell into deep thought as she watched Johann leaving the ward.

She knew that her imposter was already dead. However, she did not expect Luke to conceal it from Johann and the others…

How much longer was he going to hide it…

Luke looked at Luca, who seemed to be deep in thought. He assumed that Johann’s words must have made her ponder.

“Are you hungry?” He broke the silence.

Luca shook her head and typed on the phone: [I'm not hungry yet.]

"You'll have to eat something even if you're not feeling hungry. I've asked someone to deliver your breakfast here. It’s oatmeal again, but it's not as creamy as yesterday. It'll taste better than the ones sold in the hospital’s canteen," said Luke.

Luca could feel his attentiveness for her. It would be nice if she was Bianca now.

[Thank you.] She did not know what to say, so all she could do was to type that on her phone.

After all, Luke was kind to her now simply because she was hurt and he had something to do with it.

Luke’s face darkened when he looked at her polite yet distant words of appreciation. He did not say anything more.

The wooden door was pushed open again. The nurse carried some tools that were used to dress the wound into the ward. “Ms. Craw, it’s time to change your dressing.”

Luke took the initiative to make way for her at the bedside.
