Chapter 2051
After they reached the hospital, Luca watched Luke take her medical records out of his briefcase. Luca knew he did not suggest she do a medical check-up out of the blue. Luke had already decided on behalf of her without getting her permission.
Even if she refused to go, Luke would do whatever it took to send her to the hospital.
Luca followed the nurse and headed to the examination room after they handled the formalities and paid the fees.
Luke watched the curtains of the examination room get drawn. Then, he glanced at Jason and asked, “How long has the plaster cast been on my leg?"
Jason was startled by the question. He counted on his fingers and answered, "Two more days until it's a month."
Luke nodded and said to him, "I'd like to remove the cast now. Arrange it for me."
Jason nodded and replied, "Alright, Boss. Please wait for a while."
Jason trotted off to arrange it immediately.
Removing the plaster cast was not something difficult, so after Jason communicated with the doctor, Luke was brought to get an X-ray. He would be able to remove the cast if there was nothing wrong with his leg.
Luca walked out of the room when she was done with her check-up. She saw Jason standing outside alone and asked with confusion, "Mr. Doyle, where's Mr. Crawford?"
"Mr. Crawford would like to remove the plaster cast on his leg, so he went to get an X-ray," answered Jason.
Removing the plaster cast?
Luca secretly counted the days and said, "But there are two more days until Mr. Crawford can remove the plaster cast, right?"
"We're asking for the doctor's advice. If there's nothing wrong with his X-ray, then he's allowed to remove it," replied Jason. "Dr. Craw, how's your result?"
"The wound is healing well. The stitches can be removed tomorrow," said Luca. The doctor could not help but exclaim in surprise when she was checking Luca's wound.
The doctor who examined her wound was the same person who helped debride and suture her wound. She told Luca that it was her first time seeing such a serious wound healing so quickly when she was examining it. She complimented Luca for having good health.
Such compliments could not cheer Luca up.
It would be great if it was really her health that was speeding up the healing of the wound. However, it was because of the drug in her body. She had to take the antidote every month. How could she be happy about it?
Jason did not expect Luca to be able to remove her stitches that soon. He said without thinking, "That's fast. Dr. Craw, your ability to heal is very strong."
Luca gave him an insincere smile.
Jason noticed that Luca seemed like she did not like people saying such things to her, so he stopped and said, "Dr. Craw, Mr. Crawford is just right there taking the X-ray. Let's wait for him there."
"Sure." Luca followed Jason to the radiology department and stood there while waiting for Luke to come out of the room.
The door slowly opened. Luke was sitting in the wheelchair as the nurse pushed him out.
Jason stepped forward and asked immediately, "Boss, how is it?"
"I'm allowed to remove the plaster cast," answered Luke. He had talked to the doctor when he was in the room just now and asked him to remove the plaster cast on his leg that had been hindering him. Luke turned to look at Luca and asked caringly, "What did the doctor say?"
"The wound is healing. The stitches can be removed tomorrow," Luca answered honestly. Then, Luke's leg condition came to mind and she said, "Mr. Crawford, there are only two days left until it's a month. You can remove your plaster cast then. Is it necessary to remove it today?"
Luca trusted Johann more. She thought Luke could just wait two more days and remove his plaster cast after they returned to the country.
"The reporters will be there for the signing ceremony tomorrow. I'd rather not sit in a wheelchair," said Luke. If he could stand, why not?
Marcos was tall, and Luke's height was more or less the same. If he were to sit in a wheelchair in front of the cameras, it would seem slightly off.
Luca listened to him and understood immediately.
She nodded and said nothing.
The nurse came forward and spoke to Luke in Russian, "Mr. Crawford, let me take you to the room to remove your plaster cast. Is that fine?"
"Yes." Luke nodded. The nurse gave Jason a signal to let her push the wheelchair.
Jason nodded and took a step back.
The nurse pushed Luke into his wheelchair and entered the treatment room.
Luca and Jason waited for him outside the room.
Ten minutes later, Luke walked out of the treatment room. The plaster cast on his leg had been removed, and he was able to walk properly now.
Luca looked at Luke's tall figure. It had been almost a month. She had gotten used to Luke's height when he was sitting in the wheelchair. Now that he could stand and was back to his usual height again, Luca could hardly get used to it.
Luke's aura was so strong that people could not help but notice him even if he were among a bunch of tall Europeans.
Luca had to admit that she was stunned.
Jason cleared his throat and looked at the two of them as they exchanged glances with each other. The bystanders around them were being ignored. Jason mustered his courage and asked, "Boss, are we going back to the hotel now?"
“Let's go back to the hotel first.” Luke looked away and handed Jason his credit card.
Jason understood what Luke meant right away. He trotted to the hospital payment counter. After he paid the medical bills, he asked the driver to drive the car to the hospital entrance.
The three of them got into the car and returned to the hotel.
Luke received a call from Ray when he had just arrived at the hotel. He said, "Luke, I'm done. Can you come over now?”
"What a coincidence. I'm done here too. Hold on." Luke looked at Luca and said, "I have things to do, so I'll have to go out. You can go back to the suite first."
"Alright." Luca did not ask what Luke was up to. She got out of the car right away.
After the hotel's car drove Luke away, Jason, who got out of the car together with Luca, said, "Dr. Craw, let's go in. It's cold."
Luca lifted her head and stared at the sky. She felt a little melancholic and muttered to herself, "Yes. It's really cold."
"It must be snowing in the capital, right?" Luca asked.
"Yes. It started snowing two days ago in A City. I heard that the trees are all covered with snow and it's a beautiful sight," Jason said happily. He would make time to video call the kids every day. Kari and Teri were calling him two days ago that they had gone outdoors. They wanted Jason to take a look at the snow.
The two girls showed their father the snow in the capital. Sue then told Jason that the two kids were overexcited and played crazily in the snow. They ended up catching a cold after that.
Jason was worried after he found out about that. However, he was abroad now. He felt helpless, but there was nothing he could do. He had no choice but to remind the maid to take good care of Sue and the kids.
Luca looked at the snow and recalled how she had always accompanied Luke and her three children during the first snow of every year.
However, now...
She felt helpless, but she was left with no choice.
"Dr. Craw?" Jason asked with confusion when he saw her standing there.
Luca came back to her senses and smiled. "It's really cold out here, but the snow is beautiful."
"Let's go in," said Jason.
Luca took her laptop out when she returned to her room. Then, she took out the photos Shanks had given her. She looked at Nyla, who was smiling in the photos. Her face was much paler than the others as she could hardly see the sun.
Luca picked up her phone and looked at the conversation between her and Tommy. The chat history stopped on the day she traveled to Russia. After that, Tommy never sent her any messages again.
