She spoke to him in a gentle voice just like how she used to speak to him before. Luke looked up and stared at her. A warm feeling arose between them when their gazes met each other's.

Luca quickly lowered her head and placed the documents properly after she met Luke's gaze.

Luke finished drinking the glass of water and noticed that Luca was still busy arranging the pile of documents. He said calmly, "Coffee tastes better."

Luca knew Luke was craving coffee again. She paused what she was doing and took the glass from him, putting it back where it was. "Mr. Crawford, it's better to have plain water now."

"Am I not allowed to have any coffee?" Luke frowned. He only had a fractured bone. He was not sick at all.

"Yes. You can have milk or juice if you think plain water is tasteless," said Luca deliberately. Juice or milk was not Luke's top choice even if there was no coffee.

Luke enjoyed drinking coffee. Apart from that, he would drink plain water and wine. Luca knew his preferences like the back of her hand.

"Fine." Luke was indeed not interested in either of them. Luca smiled subtly as she seldom saw Luke surrendering to her.

Luca placed Luke's laptop on the other side of the bed after she arranged the documents. It was for the nurse's convenience when she came to give Luke the injection. That way, his things would not hold her up.

Luca returned to the sofa after that. She placed her personal belongings that Tina had helped to bring over into an empty cabinet. Then, she turned on the laptop and began to work.

The ward became quiet again. Luca sat on the sofa, reading the documents and typing the translations on her laptop.

Luca asked Tina for Alya's email after she finished translating a document. Then, she sent the translated document to her and continued to translate another one.

Luke did not make a fuss anymore. He would only occasionally lift his head to glance at Luca when he was reading the documents.

It set his mind at ease whenever he saw her figure in the ward as it would remind him that she was here.

Although it was embarrassing to be involved in a car accident this time, it was worth it.

The nurse came in and saw Luke handling the documents. She reminded him with a gentle voice, "Mr. Crawford, based on your condition now, it's better for you to get some rest. Don't overwork yourself."
