Percy turned to look at Luca worriedly and said, “Dr. Craw, is she alright?”
“It’s not a big deal. That’s what white-collar workers face these days. If she nurses her health, nothing bad is going to happen to her.” Luca knew what Nina was thinking about. Hence, she helped Nina to conceal it.
Percy let out a sigh of relief. He held Nina’s hands and said in a low voice, “It’s my fault. I didn’t take good care of you.”
Nina shook her head. She could not blame him for that.
If she were to blame someone, she only had herself to blame. She did not take good care of herself back then, and that was why she had health issues now.
Fortunately, Luca said her health could be nursed. Nina was no longer afraid.
Luke looked at the two of them. He cleared his throat and reminded them that they were not in a private space now.
Nina’s face reddened. She withdrew her hands and said, “Besides, Luca gave me a prescription. My health will recover after I take the medicine.”
“That’s great.” Percy set his worries aside.
If it were another doctor, Percy would have taken Nina to see Johann and ask him to do the check-up for her. However, it was Luca who checked on her this time, so he was assured.
The organization behind Luca was the Island of Despair. She was trained for three years on the island. The medical skills of the people on the Island of Despair, according to what Luke told Gale and Rain, were the top of the world.
Hence, Luca’s skills must be good too.
Besides, based on what she had done before, Percy had confidence in her medical skills.
Percy looked at Luca and thanked her, “Dr. Craw, thank you.”
“My pleasure.” Luca gave him a faint smile and looked at how happy the newlyweds were. She suddenly turned to look at Luke, and only then did she realize Luke was staring at her too.
Nina turned to look at Luca and gave her a thankful smile.
Percy stood up and patted Luke’s shoulder while saying, “I saw a pool table when I went upstairs. Come on, let’s play a game.”
Luke did not move and teased Percy instead, “Pool? Don’t you have to keep your wife company?”
“It’s been a long time since I played. I’d like to play a game of pool.” Percy turned to look at Nina and winked at her.
Nina smiled and said, “Mr. Crawford, do accompany him to play a round. He couldn’t find anyone to play with him when he was abroad.”
Percy loved playing pool when he was not busy with his work.
The villa they stayed in when they traveled abroad had a pool table, but no one could play with Percy.
Nina knew nothing about playing pool. That was why Percy would play pool alone sometimes.
Luke turned to look at Luca. She did not say anything. Hence, he rose to his feet and patted Percy’s shoulder. “I haven’t played for a while too. Let’s go. The loser will buy the drinks for tonight.”
“Isn’t this your home? There must be a wine cellar here, yet you’re asking someone else to buy drinks?” Percy asked as they made their way up the stairs together.
"If you lose, you'll pay me cash for the drinks you drink at my place at a discounted price," said Luke. Then, he added, "There must be a bet since you want to play."
“How petty. Fine. It’s a deal,” Percy agreed with him.
Nina listened to their conversation. Percy and Luke were talking childishly to each other like they were kids. She could not help but burst out laughing.
Nina knew who Luca was talking about right away. She smiled and said, “Everything became quiet after they took the money. They never came to disturb me again.”
“Good for you.” Luca nodded. However, she had a feeling that they would not give up that easily. A person’s greed could be infinite.
Even so, Anna and Jean had a large amount of money now. It was easy for them able to live comfortably as long as they did not waste or splurge their money. They would be able to live a better life than others.
However, Anna and Jean spent money extravagantly…
Luca knew it. That was why she thought it was not over yet. As their family, of course, Nina would know about that.
Nina chuckled and laughed at herself, "Previously, Ms. Anna refused to get discharged from the hospital. She would always bring up some health issues whenever the doctor mentioned getting discharged from the hospital. She would claim that she was feeling unwell and was in pain. But she immediately got discharged from the hospital once she got the money. She told the doctor that she wanted to get discharged. The doctor suggested doing a check-up on her to make sure that she was fine before she was permitted to get discharged. But she actually told the doctor that she knew her condition well and there was no need to do check-ups as there was nothing wrong with her. After that, she got discharged from the hospital right away."
Johann told Nina about this after he heard Anna’s attending physician tell him about it.
Nina felt ironic when she heard that.
Anna did not feel sorry for Nina when she spent her hard-earned money. Staying in the hospital for another day meant someone would be serving her for another day.
However, Anna was reluctant to spend a single cent of her own money. She immediately got discharged from the hospital. How laughable…
Nina grew up in the Langdon family. Her family name was Langdon too, but she was like an outsider. The mother and son treated her like their personal ATM.
Luca let out a sigh when she looked at the expression on Nina's face. She initially thought of changing the subject of the conversation, but it made Nina reminisce about her past.
Luca held Nina's hands and said, "Hey, everything's fine now. Look, they're no longer pestering you, and you're married to Mr. Mallory now. It's wonderful. You have a perfect ending now."
“Yes. It’s a perfect ending, indeed.” Nina smiled. The shadow that clouded her heart went away when she heard Percy’s name.
