Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2966

"I didn't know about such a rule. I’m sorry. I didn't inform Mrs. Norman in advance either. Maybe we should forget about it. It’d be better not to disturb her." Luca shook her head.

The nurse looked puzzled. "Most patients are still wide awake at this hour."

"I just wanted to ask about Mrs. Norman's recent health condition." Luca wanted to get some information about Queenie's health from the nurse.

Even though Wanda was also at the hospital, cardiovascular diseases were known for their sudden and rapid lethality. If Queenie's condition could not be stabilized, it would be the most critical situation.

The nurse looked at her with a confused look on her face. She shook her head after a few seconds of silence.

"This is…" Luca did not understand what this meant. She was eager to know what had happened to Queenie.

"I don't know. Due to Mrs. Norman’s special status, the hospital is worried that we might leak information to the press, so at Mr. Norman's request, none of us nurses know about Mrs. Norman's condition.

"Perhaps the head nurse knows something. Other than that, it's mostly Dr. Park and another specialist who handle Mrs. Norman's case," explained the nurse.

Luca was also puzzled. Even though Queenie's status was special, the hospital was being overly secretive this time.

The nurses had a practice of administering medications while avoiding entering Queenie's ward whenever possible. It was all in accordance with the hospital's high-level directives.

It was the first time the nurse encountered such a rule. She was also perplexed.

"None of you know?" Luca furrowed her brows. Were the nurses not supposed to monitor Queenie's condition regularly?

Why were they not allowed to enter the ward now?

"Most of the routine work is handled by the specialist and the head nurse. I don't know the specifics, but I've heard that Mrs. Norman's condition is quite serious this time. Sometimes, the doctor prescribes medication for Mrs. Norman even outside of normal hours.

"The head nurse also goes in to perform checks frequently," said the nurse. She was familiar with Luca and knew she had a good relationship with Queenie. That was why she shared what she knew.

"Besides Dr. Park, is there another doctor who is responsible for Mrs. Norman?" asked Luca.

"There's also Dr. Hoyles, the head of the Cardiovascular Department, who's responsible for Mrs. Norman. But Dr. Park is the primary one," replied the nurse. "Dr. Park has been going in and out of Mrs. Norman's ward often for the past few days. He didn’t seem too pleased."

"Alright, I understand." Luca glanced down the hallway. Queenie was on this side, but she had no idea about her current condition. Luca was unable to find out anything, but she did not even have the courage to enter the ward.

"Ms. Craw, are you sure you don't want to visit her?" asked the nurse. "We can only notify her by ringing the bell. We can't just push open the door to Mrs. Norman's ward."

Luca thought to herself that there must be Luke’s intention behind it since the hospital was being so secretive.

He was keeping Queenie's condition under wraps. Was it to avoid worrying her?

"No, it's alright. By the way, has Mr. Crawford left?" Luca asked again, wanting to confirm if Luke was still here.

"I've been at the nurse's station the whole time and haven't seen Mr. Crawford leaving," replied the nurse as she shook her head.

"Where is he now?" Luca's heart tightened. She could not help but ask urgently at the thought of Luke being in the hospital.

"I think Mr. Crawford is in Ms. Rayne's ward now. I heard that Ms. Rayne isn't in a great mood lately. Something might have happened, and Mr. Crawford is comforting her," replied the nurse.

“Is Ms. Rayne not doing well?” Luca felt upset.

"It’s probably because of you and Mr. Crawford...?" The nurse paused for a moment and thought it was inappropriate to talk about their scandal in front of the person involved.

Hence, she added, "I heard that Ms. Rayne hasn't been in a good mood lately. She’s pretty bummed out. She's not eating much and isn't very cooperative with her treatment. I also heard Mrs. Lane mention that Ms. Rayne's mood is really bad. She’s down in the dumps.

"She thinks she's a burden to Mr. Crawford and her niece, and she thinks it might be better to just go..."
