When Luca heard Jack say it was the misfortune of the family, Luca pursed her lips. She held a grudge against Leia.

Everything pointed to Leia...

“Mr. Norman, say no more. Get some rest. I’ll be here," said Luca.

Jack continued, "Luca, you're injured too. You don't have to stay here. Ask Luke to find us a caretaker.

Luca felt a lump in her throat, and she could not help but choke with sobs. "Don't worry, Mr. Crawford has everything arranged. The caretaker will be coming soon."

Luca glanced at the two IV fluid bags. They were running out of liquid. Thus, she pressed the call bell.

The head nurse walked into the ward and asked, "What's wrong with the patients?"

The head nurse walked toward Jack's bedside and replied, "Okay. Let me change them. What's the patient's name?"

"Jack Norman," Luca answered on behalf of Jack as he was asleep.

"Queenie Zeigler," Luca answered her questions patiently as she knew it was a procedure the medical staff had to go through.

The head nurse checked the name on the IV fluid bags and made sure that there was nothing wrong with it. Then, she changed the IV fluid bags for Queenie.

Then, she turned to look at Luca, "Ms. Craw, are you staying here to take care of Mr. Norman and his wife?"
