Nina knew that she had no other choice. Jean would not give her their mother’s handbag, and the nurse would not run the tests if she had to go home to bring the debit card.

She could not tell if Anna’s condition was critical, and she could not afford to take the risk.

She nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll borrow some money from you. When I get home later, I’ll transfer the money to your bank account.”

“Give me the bills. I’ll go and pay,” Luca said.

Nina handed the bills to Luca, and Luca went to the payment counter.

Nina turned to speak to the nurse, “My friend is paying the bills now, Miss. Can you schedule the tests for my mother?”

The nurse thought that Nina seemed trustworthy. She nodded and said, “Alright. I’ll bring your mother to the next test then.”

Jean watched Luca as she walked away. Instead of worrying about his mother, he smiled perversely and asked Nina, “Hey, Nina, is that chick your friend?”

“I don’t care if you want to flirt with other girls, Jean, but you’d better not touch her!” Nina warned him. She knew what he was thinking.

Jean ignored her warning. To him, there were only two categories of women: those who caught his interest and those who did not.

Luca happened to belong to the former category.

“Why didn’t you tell me that you have such a high-quality friend? Her figure is not bad, and even though she dresses modestly, those clothes aren’t cheap. Mind introducing her to me?” Jean said.

Nina rolled her eyes at him. “She’s way out of your league.”

Jean was furious when he heard the contempt in her voice. “What do you mean? I’m only like this thanks to your good friend Bianca!”
