Luca nodded as she no longer felt anxious.

After all, the signing of the contract was a done deal.

Luca pushed Luke out of the suite. Jason and the others were already waiting for them downstairs in the hotel lobby.

There were two cars parked at the hotel entrance. Mr. Zac and the other employees climbed into another car, while Jason helped Luke to get into the backseat of the Rolls-Royce.

Luca got into the car too.

The backseat of the car was spacious. Luca sat by the window and looked at the snow outside the window. Suddenly, Luke asked, "How's your wound?"

"It's still healing. The stitches can be removed in two days," Luca said in a soft voice. She had been dressing her wound often this time and taking medicine. Her wound was able to heal quickly with the help of the medicine.

"That fast?" Luke frowned. He remembered that her wound was a mass of bleeding flesh, and there was even some rotten flesh. The doctor at the hospital had debrided and sutured her wound. He told Luke that the wound was deep and would take some time to heal. After all, some time was needed for the flesh to grow.

“Normally, surgical incisions only require seven days to remove the stitches,” explained Luca. She took the poison that Shanks developed, and that was why she had a special physical constitution.

Her wound would have healed much faster than a regular person who was wounded without the interference of the fungus.

"Let me send you to the hospital to do a check-up after signing the contract.” Luke felt that something was wrong. Ordinary people would not heal this fast. He was worried that Luca was pushing her body to the limits.

Luca knew Luke was worried for her, but she thought that it was unnecessary.

If Luca went for a medical check-up, the doctor would only exclaim that her healing ability was stronger than regular people. Hence, Luca said, "Mr. Crawford, I know some clinical skills."

"I know that too, but you delayed treatment for too long. It'd be safer to do a check-up." Luke insisted.

Luca knew Luke would pull a long face if she did not listen to him.
