Wanda wanted to make an appointment with the doctor, but the doctor called to ask about her health condition in the first instance. “Ms. Rayne, I read the documents. The last time you came for a medical examination was last year around June. It isn’t time for you to do another check-up. Are you feeling uncomfortable? Is that why you want to do a medical check-up?” the doctor asked. Luke was the one who arranged for the doctor. The doctor was responsible, and he dared not to let anything go wrong with Wanda’s health.“Well, I haven't been getting enough rest these days. And my hands and legs are always cold. That’s why I thought of heading to the hospital for a check-up,” Wanda said in a relaxed tone. She thought it was merely her health getting worse, and it was not such a big deal.However, Wanda consciously listened to Luca’s advice."I see. Let me make an appointment for your health screening tomorrow at 8:30 in the morning. The hospital will send someone to pick you up. Is t
"This isn't to my credit. Grandpa Rayne, it was you who was willing to cooperate with me," Luca replied with a smile. She felt assured after knowing that his health had improved. Old Man Rayne said proudly, "Yes. Not everyone is as lucky as I am to have someone to treat me so effectively."Yesterday, Old Man Rayne had a video call with his friends who lived in the countryside. His friends were astonished to see how energetic he looked and how he looked so much better than before. They even asked what supplements did Old Man Rayne take.Old Man Rayne proudly claimed that he had his own secret weapon, but it was not supplements. His friends kept asking him, trying to find out what the secret weapon Old Man Rayne mentioned was.However, Old Man Rayne did not tell them. He did not forget what Luke had told him. Luca's job was to do drug research and development instead of helping others to nurse their health. She was usually busy with work. Thus, no matter how hard his friends t
Old Man Rayne made the first move and said jokingly, “How did you know about that?” “Grandpa, she’s a competitive person.” It did not take long for Luke to make his move. “You seem to know her well,” muttered Old Man Rayne. Then, he said, “But her personality is similar to Bianca. It reminded me of the past when I used to play chess with Bianca. She always loses the game, but she refused to let me throw the game and let her win. If she found out that I lost the game on purpose, she’d be in a bad mood for a long time.”Luke’s thin lips curved into a faint smile.Old Man Rayne mentioned Bianca’s name. He missed his granddaughter.He had no idea that he had already met Bianca. It was just that Luca could not tell him about it. That was why she had to hide it from him.“Luke,” Old Man Rayne uttered his name.“Yes,” replied Luke.“How’s Bianca doing now?” Old Man Rayne asked.“She’s living a happy life now.” Luke turned to look at the kitchen. Luca was visiting her grandfather, a
Luca was startled for a moment. She did not expect Luke to be so straightforward.It took Luca a few seconds to come back to her senses. After she tried to put her thoughts into words, she said, “I realized Ms. Rayne’s hands were cold today. It’s unusual for her hands to be freezing in a warm space. I asked her to make an appointment for a medical examination tomorrow. I’d like to know the results of her medical examination.”Luke nodded after he heard what Luca said. “Sure. I’ll ask the doctor working at the health clinic to send a copy of the report to your email.”“Okay.” Luca paused for a moment. “I’ll help her improve her health if there’s something wrong with her.”“She’ll be grateful if you can help her with that,” said Luke. The doctor would always inform him of their health condition after their medical examination. Wanda had always had issues with her health. Sometimes, she had to take some medicine to nurse her health. The issues recurred on and off again. It had bee
Luca did not disturb him. She turned around and returned to her bedroom.Luca sat on the edge of the bed. She picked up a book left on the bedside table and began reading. The book was placed here by Luke. It was a book written in English. The contents of the book were about the current trends in architecture. Luca was surprised when she read it.Even though Luke was managing T Corporation, he had never given up learning more professional knowledge about architecture.Luke was a leader, and he was an architect too. Luca turned the pages. She even spotted an architect's name that looked familiar to her in one of the cases mentioned in the book. It was Luke's name.Luca saw the design and the signature under the photo below. It was the name she was familiar with.A proud feeling aroused within her.That was how outstanding the man she was in love with was.Luca continued to turn the pages until the drowsiness kicked in. She glanced at her phone. It was already midnight.It
“Okay. Send me the image. Here’s my email. 423******,” Johann gave Luca his email.“Alright. I’ll send it to you now. Thank you, Dr. Park.” After Luca noted down Johann’s email, she ended the call and saved the CT result and color doppler before sending them to Johann.Johann immediately received the email. After he downloaded the result, he opened the image and raised his eyebrows. The intern who stood beside Johann noticed that something was wrong too.“Dr. Park, isn’t this cancer?” The intern asked. He was the relative of the assistant medical director of the hospital. He pulled some strings to become Johann’s intern as he admired him a lot. “Yes,” Johann replied and zoomed in to read the result of the report. “Breast cancer.”“Is this patient a friend of yours?” The intern could not help but ask.Johann rolled his eyes at him and said, “What did I tell you?”“Don’t ask questions…” the intern replied embarrassingly. Johann no longer said anything. If it were not for th
Wanda clasped her hands anxiously and said, “I always take my medicine.” “Aunt Wanda, the most important thing to do now is to get admitted to the hospital to do a check-up. Conservative treatment isn’t working anymore. You have to listen to the doctor’s arrangement,” Luke said with a stern expression on his face. He was worried Wanda would try to run away from it again.If the conservative treatment worked for her, then there would be no problem for her to choose any kind of treatment.However, Wanda was left with no choice now.Wanda took a deep breath, trying to accept reality. It happened all of a sudden. Her medical report stated that she had the cancer cells under control, and there was no sign of it getting worse. Yet, there was such a drastic change in her body in just a few months…“Aunt Wanda, Bianca doesn’t want anything to happen to you. So, you must listen to the doctor’s advice this time. Dr. Park has already contacted another doctor, and he’s going to get in touc
“Leave it to Lucy. Just go ahead and pack your stuff.” Old Master Rayne gently pushed Wanda’s hands.The maid Luke hired was responsible. There were many things Wanda did not have to worry about. It was just that she was used to worrying about these things, and she could not get used to leaving them to someone else to do.Wanda nodded and rose to her feet when she saw how dutiful Lucy was. She reminded Lucy, “Please take good care of Old Master Rayne.”“I will, Ms. Rayne.” Lucy who stood beside her nodded.After Wanda left, Old Master Rayne asked Lucy, “Do you know what Luke said to her just now?”Lucy shook her head. “Old Master Rayne, I came upstairs to look after you when Mr. Crawford came. I didn’t hear what they were talking about.”Old Master Rayne’s eyes darkened. He could sense a hint of sadness in Wanda’s eyes.Wanda should be happy to go on a vacation. What happened?Did something happen to Bianca? It was unlikely that something would happen to her. Even though she
