Chapter 38 Luke's Jealousy

Back at the hospital.

Bianca stared at the shopping bags for a long time before she went to brush her teeth.

The father and son did not stay for long after that.

Once she was cleaned up, Bianca changed into her pajamas and lay on the pure-white single hospital bed. She squeezed the covers between her fingers for a long time, unable to sleep.

She tossed and turned, but she just could not go to sleep.

Her eyes were wide. Bianca was thinking that this was the first time in her twenty-four years of life that someone gave her a coat without hesitation when she was feeling cold.

She would be lying if she said that she was not touched in the slightest.

Luke led his son out of the hospital and prepared to drive back to the mansion. 1

The drive had barely started when they reached a red light.

Luke then opened the car window and lit up a cigarette. Holding it between his fingers, he took the occasional dreg, his deep eyes staring directly ahead of him and gradually narrowing.

"Dad, you once taught me that it's very rude to listen to other people’s phone calls." Lanie sat in a safety seat at the back, whining as he bit his little lip. "But you told me to answer Miss Bea's call..." 1

Luke took a dreg from his cigarette and did not say a thing.

Lanie continued, "But neither of us got permission from Miss Bea..."

Luke flicked the cigarette into the ashtray in the car and said seriously, "I asked you to pick up so you could tell if it was a bad guy calling her." "Oh..." So that was it.

The boy scratched his head, feeling a tad confused.

Bianca spent the night at the hospital.

The next morning, the doctor came to check on her and told her to rest well for the next week. She was forbidden from staying up all night.

Bianca nodded. "Thank you, doctor."

The doctor packed up her medical apparatus.

"Dr. Joyce, can I leave the hospital and rest at home?" She did not want to keep staying at the hospital. The fees for a high-end hospital room were just too high. Apparently, Jason had arranged this room for her.

The meal with Charlotte Shaw was part of her job as assigned by the company, so the company had been paying for her hospital fees.

Still, she did not like the atmosphere at the hospital.

"It’s okay if you want to leave. I’ll dispense a few days’ worth of medicine for you in a bit, you can take them home." With those words, the doctor nodded at Bianca quite politely.

Bianca had been in the hospital several times in her life, but this was her first time getting such nice treatment from a doctor.

Without eating lunch, Bianca hurriedly handled the check-out procedures.

On the way back home via subway, Nina called her to express her concern. Bianca simply assured her that all was well.

"About my brother..." Nina tried to start another topic.

'Oh, I’ve reached my station. Talk to you later.”

Bianca came up with an excuse to interrupt Nina before she continued.

She had very clearly broken up with Jean. From that moment onward, they were no longer dating. 1

As for whether they could still stay friends in the future, she was leaving that up to fate. 1

Sitting in the train, Bianca felt an unbearable soreness in her waist. The doctor said that this was one of the drug's after-effects.
