“Yes, you told me. How else would I know?" Luca insisted and took a sip of her lemon tea to hide her guilt.

"Really? Maybe I forgot..." Nina had no recollection of her telling Luca those things.

However, she had complained to her about Jean a lot, so she suspected that she had said so much that she forgot what she even said.

"I guess so. You've been working too hard lately, so it's only normal that you don't remember little details like these," Luca said as she sipped on her lemon tea with her straw while lowering her gaze.

The two of them continued to sit there and sip on their tea.

Nina told Luca about many other things until someone's phone rang, which made their conversation come to an abrupt end.

Luca glanced at the caller to see that it was Queenie.

"I'll take this call," she said to Nina before answering the phone. "What is it, Mrs. Norman?"

"Luca, what's wrong with your voice?" Queenie noticed that her voice was a little raspy.

"I have a cold. Is everything alright?" Luca knew that Queenie must be calling her to talk about Leia.

Leia was in stable condition right now, so there should not be any complications. Why was Queenie calling her?

"Sorry, I didn't know you had a cold.." Queenie felt bad when she heard that Luca had caught a cold. She glanced at the door of the ward and asked out of concern, "Are you feeling any better?"

"I've gotten much better. It's not that serious anymore. Don't worry, Mrs. Norman, you can speak now." Luca noticed how cautious she was, which convinced her that it was about Leia.

Leia heard her talk and was a little uncertain. Was that Jack's wife?
