“Yes, you told me. How else would I know?” Luca insisted and took a sip of her lemon tea to hide her guilt.
“Really? Maybe I forgot…” Nina had no recollection of her telling Luca those things.
However, she had complained to her about Jean a lot, so she suspected that she had said so much that she forgot what she even said.
“I guess so. You’ve been working too hard lately, so it’s only normal that you don’t remember little details like these,” Luca said as she sipped on her lemon tea with her straw while lowering her gaze.
The two of them continued to sit there and sip on their tea.
Nina told Luca about many other things until someone’s phone rang, which made their conversation come to an abrupt end.
Luca glanced at the caller to see that it was Queenie.
“I’ll take this call,” she said to Nina before answering the phone. “What is it, Mrs. Norman?”
“Luca, what’s wrong with your voice?” Queenie noticed that her voice was a little raspy.
“I have a cold. Is everything alright?” Luca knew that Queenie must be calling her to talk about Leia.
Leia was in stable condition right now, so there should not be any complications. Why was Queenie calling her?
“Sorry, I didn’t know you had a cold…” Queenie felt bad when she heard that Luca had caught a cold. She glanced at the door of the ward and asked out of concern, “Are you feeling any better?”
“I’ve gotten much better. It’s not that serious anymore. Don’t worry, Mrs. Norman, you can speak now.” Luca noticed how cautious she was, which convinced her that it was about Leia.
Leia heard her talk and was a little uncertain. Was that Jack’s wife?
“Here’s the thing. Leia just had the operation, right? A little problem occurred, but Dr. Park said it’s normal and she’ll be fine if she takes good care of her body. However, I’m still a bit worried, so I want to ask you to come over to see if you can do anything to help Leia recuperate,” Queenie said slowly.
She intended to let the doctors at the hospital do it, but after bringing it up to Leia, Leia suggested letting Luca help her.
Queenie felt embarrassed to bother Luca as she had put Luca through so much trouble in the past because of Leia.
Helping patients recuperate was not her specialty, but Jack mentioned that Luca was great at it.
Leia even insisted on having Luca help her because she was better and even Johann said so.
For the sake of Leia’s health, Queenie had to shamelessly make this call to Luca.
“Recuperate?” Luca was stunned as she was a little hesitant to help Leia, not because she was selfish but because Leia would never accept her good intentions.
If Leia was willing to accept her kindness, perhaps she would not need to get a liver transplant in the first place.
“Yes. If you’re not free, then that’s fine.” Queenie heard the reluctance in Luca’s tone.
“Mrs. Norman, it’s not that I don’t want to. It’s just that I don’t know if I can do a good job. Plus, Ms. Norman was quite opposed to me treating her before. I’m afraid of making a fool of myself…” said Luca as Leia had hated her for a long time.
Luca recalled the last time she gave Leia dry needling. If not for the fact that Leia had trouble getting up, she might have chased her out of the place.
