Seeing that the gauze was stable even with the weight of his leg, Luca breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Luke who was sitting in the bathtub and said, "Mr. Crawford, have a nice shower. I'll be waiting outside the door."

"Mm," Luke nodded. Although it was a bit awkward to take a shower like this, it was a better option than wiping his body with a wet cloth.

Luca left the bathroom and closed the door for him. She did not lock it from the inside because she would have to come in later.

The maid came over and asked softly, "Ms. Craw, are you done?"

"Yes, somewhat. Getting Mr. Crawford out of the bathroom after his shower is a big task," Luca said. After Luke was done, she would first drain the water from the bathtub so that his injury would not risk getting wet.

If he deliberately did not wear a bathrobe...

Luca's face warmed at the thought that she might see something she should not.

"I'll stay and wait for Mr. Crawford to finish his bath." The maid was worried that Luca would not be able to do it alone.

After the maid said that, Luca noticed that it was time for the maid to get off work. The weather outside today was not the best. It might snow. She said, "It's getting late. I can deal with it alone, so you should head home and be with your family."

"What about..." The maid hesitated.

Luca knew that Luke did not like to be seen by other people in a state like that. Even if the maid was here, he might end up ordering her to wait outside. There was nothing the maid could contribute if that was the case.

She said, "I can do it alone. I have experience in caring for others. Don't worry."

"Okay, I'll head home, then." Seeing that Luca was insistent, the maid decided to get off work.

Luca thought that Luke would probably wash his hair, so she said, "By the way, is there a hairdryer downstairs? Can you help me find it?"

"It's for guests. I'll find it for you." The maid nodded, turned around, and walked out of the maid's room. After a while, she returned with a hairdryer and said, "Ms. Craw, I'll put the hairdryer on the table."

"Okay. Get home safe," Luca said.

The maid smiled warmly and nodded. "Ms. Craw, you're so kind. See you tomorrow."
