Leia was stubborn. She sneered, rose to her feet, and walked out.
The maid immediately followed behind her.
Queenie remained rooted to the spot. Although the doctor had his own office, there was an awkward silence in the air.
“I’m sorry. Leia was being rude.” As a mother, Queenie apologized to the doctor on behalf of Leia.
Although the doctor was pissed off by what Leia said to him, it was inappropriate for him to throw a tantrum at Queenie. He had no choice but to be considerate. “It’s okay. People who are sick get upset easily.”
Queenie let out a sigh and asked the doctor, “Doc, do you mean Leia can receive naturopathy treatment to nurse her health if she’d like to recover faster?”
“Yes. Receiving naturopathy treatment at this stage will help her. It won’t affect her liver and kidney either.” The doctor nodded and replied, “I can contact the head of the naturopathy department for you now if you’d like to see him. But Ms. Norman has to go there. After all, the doctor has to check her pulse to find out about her situation.”
However, Leia dashed out of the room just now. She was probably on her way to the hospital’s entrance.
“Okay. I got it. Thank you. We won’t proceed with it at the moment. I’ll think of a way. Please prescribe the medicine for her. I’ll go and take the medicine.” Queenie rose to her feet. She uttered each word politely, and her good manners calmed the doctor down.
The doctor prescribed the medicine for Leia.
After Queenie thanked him, she walked out of the office to pay for the medical bills.
The doctor could not help but sigh as he watched Queenie leave. People said that parents were their children’s role models, but it did not seem entirely like it.
Even if the parents were well-mannered and sophisticated, it did not mean these traits would be passed on to their children.
The doctor had the urge to stop giving consultation to Leia and let Johann handle her himself at the thought of Leia questioning and scolding him every time she came here.
After Queenie paid the bills, she took the medicine and called the maid. She found out that Leia was already on her way back to the apartment when she asked the maid.
Queenie had no choice but to hang up the call and looked at the packs of medicine in her hands.
Every medicine had its side effects. Leia had just gotten a liver transplant, but her recovery was not as good as it was expected. Perhaps she was taking too much medicine.
What the doctor said came across her mind again.
Queenie heaved a sigh, picked up her phone, and called Luca.
She wanted to ask Luca to cure Leia.
Although their relationship worsened after Leia threw a tantrum at Luca back then, Luca was the only one who could help her now. Queenie thought of acting on Leia’s behalf to ask for Luca’s help.
Luca was a kind person. As long as Queenie was nice to her, it was likely that she would let bygones be bygones and help Leia to nurse her health.
The phone rang twice before the call was answered.
"Mrs. Norman, what's the matter?" Luca was a little surprised. They had just run into each other at the hospital just now, but Queenie was calling her now.
Luca reckoned that Queenie called not to ask about her, and there was a high chance that she called her for Leia’s sake.
“Luca…” Queenie called her name and paused for a moment. It was hard for her to say it.
After all, Leia said such harsh things to her back then…
When Luca realized Queenie paused for a few seconds, she said, “Mrs. Norman, just tell me what’s the matter directly.”
Queenie took a deep breath. She had no choice but to ask Luca a favor for Leia’s sake. “Luca, Leia went for her physical examination today. The results aren't great. Her recovery progress isn’t going well as expected. The doctor suggested she try naturopathy treatment. So, I’d like to ask you…”
Queenie could hardly utter the next few words. She clasped her phone tight and looked helplessly at the families who accompanied the patients here walking back and forth in the hospital. She was drowned in a helpless feeling.
She even started to doubt whether she did the right thing to adopt Leia back then.
