After Luca took the elevator down to the first floor, her mind went blank as she walked back to her car.

When she tried to start the car engine, she realized that her strength had been completely drained. She leaned against the driver's seat for a while. The dull pain in her heart still would not go away.

She knew that she could not drive in this condition.

Luca pursed her pale lips and picked up her phone to request a designated driver through an app.

Ten minutes later, the designated driver arrived at the hospital parking lot driving an electric scooter. After finding Luca based on her car's license plate, he lightly tapped the driver's side door. He asked, "Miss, did you request a designated driver?"

"Yes," answered Luca. She still could not recover her strength, and the waves of pain continued to plague her.

Even though she tried to calm herself down, that unsettling feeling persisted.

Luca took a deep breath and mustered all her strength to push open the car door. She leaned against the car and opened the back door.

The driver noticed that something was off with Luca. He was concerned that something might happen. Hence, he asked, "Miss, are you feeling unwell? Should I take you to the emergency room to see a doctor?"

Luca knew what was wrong with her. She was just having an emotional breakdown, which was why she ended up like this. She would be fine once she calmed down.

"No need. Just take me home." After Luca declined him, she bit her lip as she sat in the back seat.

Once she stopped worrying about the misunderstandings between Luke, Queenie, and Wanda, she would feel much better.

The driver saw Luca's condition and continued to convince her, "But you don't look good, and I..."

"Just drive, I'm fine," interrupted Luca. Then, she bit her lip. All the worries that had been building up for the past few days suddenly overwhelmed her, and she could not bear it. The pain in her heart became too much to endure.

She did not know what to do.

Should she continue to keep her identity a secret? It would make things difficult for Luke, and Queenie and Wanda would continue to misunderstand him. Or should she be honest with them and make Luke bear more responsibility and pressure?
