The words of praise left Luca with a rosy hue on her face. She rose to her feet and prepared to clean up the dishes.
Luke stood up as well and said, "Let me do it."
There was no way Luca could contend with him. Hence, she watched Luke as he picked up the two bowls and walked into the kitchen. After a while, the sound of running water came from the kitchen.
Luke was washing the dishes.
Luca was not too surprised and followed him into the kitchen.
While Luke washed the dishes, she tidied up the counter a bit.
The kitchen was spacious, and the two of them stood there. One of them was washing the dishes, and the other was cleaning the counter. Their hearts were close, even though they stood apart.
After a while, they made their way up the stairs together.
Just then, Luke's phone rang.
He glanced at the caller ID. Then, he frowned and answered, "What's the matter?"
On the other end of the line was Lucy, the maid who looked after Old Man Rayne. Her voice sounded anxious, "Mr. Crawford, Old Man Rayne fainted. We’re in the ambulance on our way to the general hospital. Can you come to the hospital?"
"I'll rush over right away." Luke's expression turned serious. The joy and relaxation he had just enjoyed a moment ago vanished in an instant. After hanging up the phone, he looked at Luca with a grave expression.
"What's wrong..." Luca had a bad feeling when she looked at his expression.
"Grandpa Rayne fainted. He's being sent to the general hospital," said Luke. Even though Old Man Rayne had no blood relation to her, he had taken care of Luca since she was young. Therefore, it was only natural that she should know about this.
Luca’s body slightly stumbled when she heard this.
"Why did he faint all of a sudden?" Luca had been conditioning Old Man Rayne’s health, and he had already improved significantly. How could he suddenly faint?
There could be many reasons for an elderly person to faint. Luca was worried, and she felt restless.
"I don't know. Would you like to go to the hospital?" asked Luke. He initially planned to have a late-night supper and go to bed with Luca, but unexpected events arose tonight.
"Yes. I’m coming with you," answered Luca. She could not be bothered if her concern for Old Man Rayne would arouse Luke’s suspicion.
Luca was worried, and she was anxious about Old Man Rayne. She wanted to go to the hospital to find out what had happened to him.
"Get changed. I'll drive," said Luke. Luca was currently wearing pajamas, which were not suitable for a hospital visit. "It's cold at night. Wear something warm."
"Okay," replied Luca as she pushed open the bedroom door. She found her hands trembling uncontrollably. Her hands would shake involuntarily whenever she felt anxious and nervous.
With her right hand holding her left, she forced herself to calm down and change into a set of clothes before hurriedly going downstairs.
Luke was already waiting in the car at the entrance.
After Luca got into the car, the car sped off toward the general hospital.
When they were on their way to the hospital, Luke received another call from Lucy. "Mr. Crawford, we've arrived at the hospital. Old Man Rayne has been taken to the emergency room."
"Stay there. I’m on my way to the hospital. Let me know if there's any update," said Luke. He had the speakerphone on, and Luca, who sat in the passenger seat, heard the conversation clearly.
Luca’s face turned pale. She tightly pressed her lips, remaining silent.
"Alright.” Lucy quickly hung up the call after that.
After two beeping sounds, the call on Luke's side ended.
Silence filled the car. Luke accelerated the speed. He glanced sideways at Luca, who was in the passenger seat, and said, "Don't worry. Anyone who faints will be taken to the emergency room."
