Chapter 1216 Luca Did Not Regret It

Luca smiled slightly when she heard Luke's phone ring. She could recognize the ringtone; it was Bianca's special ringtone.

The ringtone once belonged to her. Jason had told her that whenever Luke heard that ringtone, he would drop everything and immediately pick up that call.

However, the ringtone did not belong to her anymore, and she could not get Luke to set a unique ringtone for her.

Luke had no intention of answering the phone. His eyes remained transfixed on her. He had noticed the slight smile on Luca's face when the phone started ringing. Was she hoping that she would be saved by the call?

Seeing that Luke was not picking up the phone, Luca reminded him, "Mr. Crawford, your phone is ringing." "I know," Luke said. He had taken out his phone while waiting for her to change. After she stepped out of the bathroom, he put the phone on the couch.

The phone on the couch was ringing non-stop, but he was standing next to the bed.

"That ringtone isn't one of the default ones. You must have specifically set that as a custom ringtone, didn't you?" Luca said. Her eyes were on the phone on the couch.

Bianca probably wanted to check Luke's whereabouts.

Just as she finished speaking, the ringing abruptly stopped.

The room fell into an awkward silence once more. Luca continued, "Aren't you returning the call?"

Luke placed his hands into his pockets. "You haven't answered my question." "I happened to be there, and I met Mrs. Norman by sheer chance. I noticed that her complexion was pale, so I took her pulse. Her condition happens to be one I could treat." Luca explained her meeting with Queenie as one of pure coincidence.
