Old Man Rayne admitted that it felt really nice to know that Luca kept him in her mind and was worried about him.
As he grew older, his biggest wish was to have his precious granddaughter by his side. She did not need to do much. All he wanted was for her to keep him company and have a chat with him whenever she had the time.
Luca and Bianca were of similar ages. That was why he had a misconception that Luca was Bianca.
However, Old Man Rayne also knew that Bianca was Bianca, and Luca was Luca. No matter how strong the misconception was, Luca could never be Bianca.
If Luca continued to be kind to him, he would have to repay the favor in the future.
What else could he do with his age? Repaying it with Bianca's happy marriage was something the old master could not bring himself to do.
"Old Man Rayne, don't think too much. Everything will be fine," Luca felt heartbroken as she listened to the old man. She gently squeezed his hand and asked, "Has the doctor mentioned when you'll be discharged?"
"Discharged? The doctor did tell me, but I can’t remember." Old Man Rayne pondered for a moment, unable to recall what Dr. Park said about his discharge date. He could not answer Luca's question.
Luca turned to look at the caretaker.
The caretaker knew the information. In response to Luca's questioning gaze, she replied, "Dr. Park mentioned during rounds that the old master can be discharged in a little over a week."
A little over a week… Wanda should be discharged around the same time.
A lot had happened to the Rayne family during this period. Hence, it was good that Old Man Rayne and Wanda would be leaving the hospital around the same time. It indicated that this difficult time for the Rayne family was coming to an end.
Luca spent some more time talking with Old Man Rayne.
This time, she deliberately steered the conversation toward topics that interested him without dwelling on his health issues.
She successfully shifted his attention.
After spending over an hour in the ward, Luca left when the nurse came to take Old Man Rayne for dry needling treatment.
However, she did not leave the hospital. Instead, she headed to Wanda's ward.
When Wanda saw Luca come in, her face lit up with joy. She wanted to address her as Bianca, but she remembered Luke’s request. She asked, "Luca, how did you get the time to come today?"
"It's the weekend. I dropped the kids off at their enrichment classes, then I came over,” explained Luca. Since Wanda already knew that her true identity was Bianca, she did not hide her close relationship with the kids.
Wanda no longer needed to worry about the kids being too close to Luca.
Luca took out a banknote from her pocket and said to Mrs. Lane, "Mrs. Lane, I came here in a hurry, and I didn't have time to buy any fruit. Could you please go to the fruit store downstairs and buy some of Ms. Rayne’s favorite fruits?"
"Sure." Mrs. Lane found it strange to see how close they were now.
Wanda had been rejecting Luca vehemently due to the rumors back then. Yet, their relationship had improved significantly now.
Mrs. Lane took the banknote and left the ward.
As the door closed, Luca took a deep breath and asked, "Aunt Wanda, how have you been feeling during this time?"
Since the spread of those rumors, Luca had been feeling guilty and had not been making tonics for Wanda. Luca had stopped making tonics, but Wanda's chemotherapy continued. She did not know Wanda’s condition now.
The tonics she made were meant to help regulate Wanda's body, making the side effects of chemotherapy more bearable.
Luca was worried since Wanda had not been taking her tonic. She might be feeling the strain on her body. It was just that Luca did not mention it to her.
