Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3266

Luke remained silent.

Luca thought to herself that since it was not a drunk driving or a hit-and-run case, the police would not be able to do much. At most, they would just hold her fully responsible.

However, getting hit like this out of the blue… She could not let this slide easily.

Luca was not short on money. She just wanted Karen to get the punishment she deserved.

“I should’ve let Warren drive,” Luca muttered under her breath. Someone like Warren would have noticed if a car was tailing them.

She had been too careless.

With Matysh in jail and Karen and Pierre tied up with their own issues, she thought she was safe.

She never expected Karen to go this far.

“It’s fine. Percy said they’re sending her to a mental institution this time.” Luke gently stroked her head.

Luca opened her eyes but felt dizzy, so she quickly shut them again. “Are they really going to send her to a mental institution?” asked Luca.

“Yes,” answered Luke.

“He's okay with that?” Luca was still skeptical. After all, Karen was his biological mother.

Luke explained, “Now, Percy feels the same way about Karen as I do about my own mother.”

Luca understood. There was no love left.

Therefore, it did not matter where Karen ended up as long as she was locked away and could not cause any more trouble.

After Luca pondered for a moment, she added, “One more thing. This can’t make it into the newspapers. It might affect Mr. Mallory and Nina’s wedding.”

Even though it was Percy’s mother who hurt her, Luca would feel guilty if their wedding was affected because of it.

It was her own fault for being too careless.

“It’s already been suppressed. But even if it does get out, their wedding will still go ahead as planned. It won’t change anything,” replied Luke.

Percy and Nina’s wedding would definitely happen on schedule.

“Okay,” responded Luca. She kept her eyes closed and only dared to lie flat. Moving even a little made her feel dizzy and sick.

Johann knocked on the door and walked into the hospital ward.

“Is Dr. Craw awake?” asked Johann.

Luke nodded. “She’s awake.”

“Dr. Craw, besides the dizziness, are you feeling any other discomfort?” asked Johann while thinking to himself how unlucky she was.

Back when she was Bianca, she used to get hurt often and had even experienced a concussion. Now, as Luca, she had accidentally gotten injured again.

“It’s just the dizziness. It gets really bad when I open my eyes,” Luca answered helplessly.

“That’s normal. Your concussion is pretty serious, so dizziness is expected. Try to have some oatmeal later, then take your medication and get some sleep. You’ll feel much better tomorrow,” advised Johann.

As Luca listened to his instructions, she asked, “Can I get a sleeping pill with my medication later? I’m worried I won’t be able to sleep because of the discomfort.”

“No, that’s not possible. If something happens, your body needs to be able to respond, but if you take a sleeping pill, you’ll be in such a deep sleep that the nurses won’t be able to detect any issues right away,” Johann explained apologetically.

Patients like her, who had been in a car accident, might not show any injuries or bleeding immediately, but that did not mean there would not be complications later on.

Luca thought it over and realized that Johann was just looking out for her, so she did not say anything else.

Accident patients often had injuries that showed up later, so it would be best to stay in the hospital for 24 hours of observation after getting hurt.

“Thank you,” replied Luca. It felt a little strange having the president of T Corporation feeding her oatmeal in a hospital.

Even though it was normal for couples to take care of each other, she had not been taken care of for a long time. Now, with Luke taking care of her, she could not help but feel a bit embarrassed.

Luke let out a small huff, slightly annoyed. “Why are you saying silly things like that?”

“Has Aunt Neile left?” asked Luca.

“Not yet. Ms. Craw, do you need something?” Aunt Neile quickly stepped forward.

“Aunt Neile, could you please come in early tomorrow morning and bring breakfast to the hospital? Mr. Crawford is picky and doesn't like the hospital cafeteria's food,” requested Luca.

“Of course. I'll prepare breakfast at home, deliver it to the villa, and then come straight here,” replied Aunt Neile.

“Thank you. You can head home now,” Luca said.

Aunt Neile nodded, said goodbye to Luke, and left the ward.

The two of them were left alone in the ward again. Luca slowly said, “I just can't get used to it. It's been so long since someone took care of me. It’s not that I’m distant from you.”

“I won't misunderstand,” Luke said as he blew on a spoonful of oatmeal to cool it down and brought it to her lips.

Luca took the signal, opened her mouth, and swallowed the oatmeal.

Aunt Neile had made the oatmeal very bland, and it did not taste great to her, but she knew patients needed to eat lightly seasoned food. She did not complain.

“I’ll take good care of you from now on, so you don’t need to feel any burden,” said Luke.

“Alright.” Luca knew he was serious about taking care of her. Since he wanted to, she could not refuse. After all, they were husband and wife. They were supposed to support each other.

Luca called out to him after taking another mouthful of oatmeal, “Luke, could you please turn on the TV? It’s too quiet here, and I’m not used to it.”
