Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3228

“Madam Mallory, what’s the matter?” Luca was not particularly polite to her.

If Karen were not Percy's mother or if Luke were not friends with Percy, she would not have come to see her.

Although Luke had said she could do what she wanted and did not need to worry about him or T Corporation, there were some interpersonal relationships that she felt should not be strained too much.

After all, even though Luke now said it was fine and Percy's relationship with Karen was not great, what if…

What if in the future, Karen accepted Nina and her relationship with Percy returned to normal?

If she embarrassed herself now, it might affect Luke and Percy's friendship.

That was why she decided to come see Karen.

“Dr. Craw…” Karen greeted her, then paused for a moment, not saying anything else.

Luca sat across from her and glanced at the time with a cold expression on her face. “I have another meeting soon. If you have something to say, please do. My research tasks are quite heavy.”

Even though she had come to meet Karen, her tone was not friendly.

Karen frowned, feeling displeased. However, after some thought, she swallowed her pride and said, “You know what I want to talk about. Pierre started formal physical therapy a couple of days ago, but traditional dry needling hasn't been very effective. So, I still hope you'll be able to help…”

Luca secretly let out a sigh. It was indeed about Pierre.

Parents cared for their children, after all. Even though Karen had done some despicable things, everything she was doing now was for Pierre's good.

As a mother, she could empathize.

However, what Percy did to her and to Nina was truly despicable.

He kidnapped and hit people!

Was it not a good thing now that his leg was injured? He would not be able to do those bad things anymore.

After the things she experienced on the Island of Despair, Luca no longer had a saintly heart. She even felt that Pierre's current punishment was too lenient.

“I can't help,” Luca refused directly.

“Dr. Craw, my family needs your help now. If you help us, we won't mistreat you. Even if you don't lack money, you can consider Luke's future. If he needs anything in the future, our family can also help!” Karen brought up the Mallory family.

Luca frowned. Honestly, her offer was tempting.

The Mallory family would lend a hand if Luke ever needed help.

However, as long as Luke did not fall out with Percy, the Mallory family would not help Luke out even if they owed her a favor.

Luca thought the offer was good, but it was not practical.

“Maybe I didn't make myself clearly…” Luca decided to put an end to this. “I have treated someone before, but his situation was different. He suffered damage to his brain nerves, so I used dry needling to stimulate his brain nerves and hence restore his normal bodily functions. That's my specialty in dry needling. Your son's situation is different.”

“How is it different? Dr. Park said his leg nerves were damaged.” Karen was getting worked up.

“This type of leg nerve damage refers to damage to the muscle nerves. For example, when you squeeze someone, a normal person would feel pain, but someone with muscle nerve damage might feel less pain. This can gradually recover to normal,” Luca explained to her.

“He has difficulty standing up now, or perhaps he might walk strangely in the future. This isn't directly related to the nervous system. Actually, it's because his leg was fractured for too long back then, missing the optimal treatment window and resulting in bone damage that's affecting his leg's function.”
