“Tell them to cooperate with the police officers. I'll ask Gale to head to the crime scene," said Luke.

Although all his subordinates had undergone special training before, Rain and Gale were more professional when it came to handling matters and investigating.

There was a higher chance to find out something if he sent Gale to look into the case.

"Got it, Boss," replied Rain.

After Luke ended the call, he walked back toward the ward. He headed to the ward after he threw the lunch boxes in the trash bin along the hallway.

Queenie had already woken up.

Luca sat by her bedside and listened to her as she talked.

Queenie's speech was slurred due to the concussion, but she was able to speak fluently. There was nothing wrong with her sentences. She was probably talking about Luca being injured and how she felt sorry for her.

Luca felt suffocated when she heard that. It was she who made the couple suffer, but the two of them apologized to her when they woke up.

"Mrs. Norman, rest well. Get more sleep. You'll feel better when you wake up tomorrow," replied Luca. If it was only a concussion, their condition would get better by the day.

"I heard the door opening. Who came in?" Queenie asked.

Luca lifted her head and turned to look at Luke. "It's Mr. Crawford."

"Oh, it's Luke..." Queenie paused for a moment and called his name, "Luke."

"Yes, Mom." Luke walked toward them and stood behind Luca. Then, he looked at Queenie.

"Luke, your father and I are in the hospital. Can you please handle the matter for us.." said Queenie. Luca had told her what the current situation was just now.
