Johann looked at Luca, who was lying on the bed. Indeed, she could not do it herself.

However, the medicine placed here was not for the patient to dress her wound herself. It was for the nurse to dress her wound when she came in for a ward round later.

To avoid Luke from carelessly dressing Luca's wound and leaving a scar on her, Johann cleared his throat and reminded the man who loved his wife excessively. "The medicine is placed here so that the professional nurses who come in later can dress her wound for her.”

Luke stopped opening the medicine bottle at once. He stared at Johann with a trace of blame. “You should've told me earlier.”

"Did I really need to say it aloud? The nurse didn't ask you to dress her wound for her when she placed the medicine here yesterday." Johann gave him an innocent look.

Although Luke wanted to help Luca, he was not a professional. It would be bad if he hurt Luca and left a scar on her.

Hence, Luke could not be bothered about his image and chose to put the medicine back.

Johann then asked in a gossipy manner, “What's wrong with Nina today?”

"It's because of Percy,” Luke replied, "Last night, Old Master Mallory released the news that Percy and the daughter of the Johnston family are getting married.”

"Oh, so that's it. I thought..." Johann shot a glance at his friend and turned to look at Luca. Then, he said in a shifty manner, "Even Percy is getting married soon. Is it appropriate to let your wife wander out there?"

Luke gave him a dirty look. Why did he have to mention this? “Don't you have anything better to do?”

“No, no. I've got things to do. Am I not doing a ward round now? Dr. Craw, since you're not feeling unwell, I'm off to continue my ward round.” Johann only wanted to fool around for a while. He did not want to get on Luke's nerves.

He slipped away and left the ward immediately.
