Leia was stubborn. She sneered, rose to her feet, and walked out.
The maid immediately followed behind her.
Queenie remained rooted to the spot. Although the doctor had his own office, there was an awkward silence in the air.
"I'm sorry. Leia was being rude." As a mother, Queenie apologized to the doctor on behalf of Leia.
Although the doctor was pissed off by what Leia said to him, it was inappropriate for him to throw a tantrum at Queenie. He had no choice but to be considerate. "It's okay. People who are sick get upset easily."
Queenie let out a sigh and asked the doctor, "Doc, do you mean Leia can receive naturopathy treatment to nurse her health if she'd like to recover faster?"
"Yes. Receiving naturopathy treatment at this stage will help her. It won't affect her liver and kidney either." The doctor nodded and replied, "I can contact the head of the naturopathy department for you now if you'd like to see him. But Ms. Norman has to go there. After all, the doctor has to check her pulse to find out about her situation."
However, Leia dashed out of the room just now. She was probably on her way to the hospital's entrance.
"Okay. I got it. Thank you. We won't proceed with it at the moment. I'll think of a way. Please prescribe the medicine for her. I'll go and take the medicine." Queenie rose to her feet. She uttered each word politely, and her good manners calmed the doctor down.
The doctor prescribed the medicine for Leia.
After Queenie thanked him, she walked out of the office to pay for the medical bills.
The doctor could not help but sigh as he watched Queenie leave. People said that parents were their children's role models, but it did not seem entirely like it.
Even if the parents were well-mannered and sophisticated, it did not mean these traits would be passed on to their children.
The doctor had the urge to stop giving consultation to Leia and let Johann handle her himself at the thought of Leia questioning and scolding him every time she came here.
After Queenie paid the bills, she took the medicine and called the maid. She found out that Leia was already on her way back to the apartment when she asked the maid.
Queenie had no choice but to hang up the call and looked at the packs of medicine in her hands.
Every medicine had its side effects. Leia had just gotten a liver transplant, but her recovery was not as good as it was expected. Perhaps she was taking too much medicine.
What the doctor said came across her mind again.
Queenie heaved a sigh, picked up her phone, and called Luca.
She wanted to ask Luca to cure Leia.
Although their relationship worsened after Leia threw a tantrum at Luca back then, Luca was the only one who could help her now. Queenie thought of acting on Leia's behalf to ask for Luca's help.
Luca was a kind person. As long as Queenie was nice to her, it was likely that she would let bygones be bygones and help Leia to nurse her health.
The phone rang twice before the call was answered.
"Mrs. Norman, what's the matter?" Luca was a little surprised. They had just run into each other at the hospital just now, but Queenie was calling her now.
Luca reckoned that Queenie called not to ask about her, and there was a high chance that she called her for Leia's sake.
"Luca..." Queenie called her name and paused for a moment. It was hard for her to say it.
After all, Leia said such harsh things to her back then.
When Luca realized Queenie paused for a few seconds, she said, "Mrs. Norman, just tell me what's the matter directly."
Queenie took a deep breath. She had no choice but to ask Luca a favor for Leia's sake. "Luca, Leia went for her physical examination today. The results aren't great. Her recovery progress isn't going well as expected. The doctor suggested she try naturopathy treatment. So, I'd like to ask you."
Queenie could hardly utter the next few words. She clasped her phone tight and looked helplessly at the families who accompanied the patients here walking back and forth in the hospital. She was drowned in a helpless feeling.
She even started to doubt whether she did the right thing to adopt Leia back then.
It seemed like she had done a lot for Leia for her whole life, but she felt like it was the other way round when she saw Leia in this state now.
Luca secretly let out a sigh when Queenie stumbled over her words, unable to say the rest of her sentence.
Queenie had always been gentle. She was bashful and embarrassed to face such situations.
However, Queenie was willing to bite the bullet and call her for Leia's sake. How could Luca turn her down?
A child would never be able to reject their parents' requests.
Luca was also one of them.
Luca had no choice but to say, "Will Ms. Norman agree to it?"
"I haven't discussed it with her. Luca, can you put what happened between you and Leia aside and help me this once? Mr. Norman and I will be grateful to you," said Queenie.
Before Queenie finished her sentence, Luca could already figure out what she meant.
“If Ms. Norman agrees to it, I'll be willing to nurse her health. But I've been a little busy lately, and I'm only available tomorrow," said Luca. Even though Leia was ill-mannered, Queenie was the one asking for a favor now. There was no way Luca could reject her.
"Okay. I'll inform Leia. And I'll call you tomorrow. Let me bring Leia to your place," Queenie immediately replied when Luca agreed to help.
To her place?
Luca immediately said, "Mrs. Norman, I'll go over to your place."
"No. How can we do that? We're thankful that you're willing to help her. We can't let you come back and forth. So be it, then. I'll call you tomorrow," said Queenie. Leia needed Luca's help, so it should be Leia who headed to Luca's place.
"Okay..." Luca thought it would be fine since Amur had come back. If Leia agreed to let her help her, she could ask her to head to her apartment.
There were traces of people living in the apartment, so they would not doubt anything.
After the call ended, Rain asked, "You're going to help Ms. Norman to nurse her health?"
"She might not agree to it," replied Luca. Leia hated her so much. Even if Queenie was the one who asked Luca, Leia would not easily agree to it either.
Leia might even think Luca was trying to harm her.
"Okay. Remember to inform me if you're going out tomorrow," said Rain.
"Matysh..." Luca frowned.
"Yes. He's meeting those people more often these days. They must be up to something. You should be more careful when you're going out. Besides, Leia's friend, the one who looks like you, has been staying by Matysh's side. Our men saw her going to Leia's apartment to meet Leia. Perhaps they're planning something. Just to be on the safe side, I'll be protecting you whenever you're going out for the next few days," Rain explained to her.
"Okay." Luca was not against the idea that someone would be staying by her side to protect her.
As long as it was not related to the Island of Despair, having someone by her side would not affect her.
On the other hand.
Leia returned to the apartment. After she put her things, she returned to her bedroom.
Mandy had given her a call when she was in the car. The maid was beside her at that time, so it was inconvenient for her to answer the call.
Luca called her back when she was back in her bedroom.
"What's wrong?" Leia sat on the sofa and asked in a grumpy tone.
"Hey, who offended you? Why do you sound angry?" Mandy could sense Leia was in a bad mood by listening to her tone and she deliberately mocked her.
"Who else could it be?" Leia changed into a more comfortable sitting position. Then, Luca came across her mind. She asked, "By the way, when is that sugar daddy of yours making a move? I need money."
