The patient who was being pointed at furrowed her brows. No one liked being pointed at with a finger that way. However, judging from Leia's aggressive personality, if she were to retort, she would definitely get criticized and end up having a heart attack.
Hence, she held back and gave Leia a cold snort without saying a word.
Leia seethed with anger at the thought of her failing to hurt Luca after spending all that money. Also, she was pissed after she overheard them speaking ill of her when she was in the restroom a moment ago. Leia was so infuriated that she immediately got out of bed and tried to get into a fight with the patient next to her bed. "I'm going to rip your mouth apart today!"
The caretaker immediately stopped her. "Ms. Norman, calm down."
"Get out of my way!" Leia pushed the caretaker.
However, the caretaker was good at martial arts. Leia pushed her hard, but instead of pushing away the caretaker, Leia staggered and slumped onto her bed while the caretaker remained steadfast.
"Ms. Norman, did you hurt yourself?" The caretaker pretended to be concerned. How could Leia be able to push her and make her fall?
Although Leia was aggressive, she was a sickly person. There was no way she could win against someone who had been training at the base all year round.
"Go away!" Leia shook off the caretaker's hand. She suspected that the caretaker did this on purpose, but she had no evidence.
Why did the force rebound to herself?
The caretaker wore an innocent expression on her face. As she watched Leia rub her waist after sitting back down, she knew Leia really fell when she made that gesture. She was pleased to see that.
Teasing Leia was entertaining.
The other two patients saw the defeated look on Leia’s face. Their lips curled into a smile. However, they did not burst out laughing because Leia was not someone to be messed with. If they laughed out loud, there would be no peace in the ward.
…
On the other side of the hospital…
The researcher walked out of the consultation room after getting his wound dressed.
Luca stood up and walked toward him. Then, she asked, "How are you feeling?"
"It’s just an external injury. I’ll be fine as long as the wound doesn’t get wet," replied the researcher. He did not expect that Luca and Luke would personally escort him to the hospital. They even talked to the director of the burn unit to treat his wound.
"Well, Mr. Crawford said he’s gonna give you a week's rest. Take care of your wound and come to the hospital on time to change your dressings. You don’t have to come to work during this period," said Luca. This was what she had just discussed with Luke.
"It's alright, Dr. Craw. I can work. You’re preparing to launch a new project. I’m afraid the office will be short-staffed if I take a few days off." The researcher shook his head. He used to think that Luca was a cold person, but he realized that he was wrong now.
Luca was not cold at all. She treated the employees well.
"The project has not officially started yet. We don’t need that many people now," replied Luca. It was her fault that he got injured. She should give him a few days off to recover from the injury.
Fortunately, it did not lead to a particularly serious accident this time.
"Listen to Dr. Craw’s advice," said Luke when he noticed that the researcher was about to say something.
The researcher had no choice but to compromise and reply, "Alright. Thank you, Mr. Crawford. Thank you, Dr. Craw."
Luca shook her head. She was not the one who should be thanked for this.
"The driver is waiting outside to send you back home. The license plate ends with 8288," added Luke. When he was waiting for the researcher's wound to be treated, Warren, who was usually responsible for picking up Luca, also arrived at the hospital.
Therefore, he asked Warren to send the researcher back home, while he planned to let Lliam send them back.
"Okay. Thank you, Mr. Crawford," the researcher said again before leaving the emergency room.
Besides, what Matysh did had already caused a sensation in A City. Many people were following the progress of this case. The police in A City were not to be messed with either. They would not give special treatment just because the perpetrator was a foreigner.
Matysh was destined to serve his prison sentence in A City. Even if his attorney or the embassy came to defend him, they had no choice but to follow the laws and regulations of A City.
"Who are you calling naive?" Gale walked into the kitchen with a cup and poured himself a coffee.
Rain frowned. “Are you serious about having coffee at this hour?”
"I’m planning to stay up all night. I have some leads on Leia's case. Gotta strike while the iron is hot. We might be able to get her locked up this week."
"Speaking of Leia, I’ve got some news from the hospital staff." Rain forwarded the message she received from the caretaker to Gale.
"Tsk, Leia is a real troublemaker." Gale looked at the message and took a sip of his coffee.
"She’s going to prison soon. I’ll spare her a day or two. After that, she'll have to work hard to reform herself in prison for the rest of her life."
"I'm not sure if I can finish my work in a day or two," replied Gale.
"The Abaza family sent over an attorney who has no idea about the rules in A City. He may be the key to getting Matysh to talk. Boss might do something to him, and Matysh might be able to rat Leia out," speculated Rain. Matysh refused to admit anything or talk now. She reckoned that he was waiting for the attorney.
The attorney the Abaza family hired was famous in Russia and known worldwide.
"Well, I'm looking forward to it. The more we uncover about Leia's past, the more nauseating it becomes," Gale finished his coffee.
He was responsible for investigating and digging into Leia's past. The deeper he dug, the more he realized that she was not an ordinary woman.
Leia was a shameless woman who played dirty tricks.
