The relationship between them was quite peculiar.The three of them returned to the wardroom together as they followed Wanda.Wanda lay flat on the bed, waiting for the effects of the anesthesia to wear off.The doctor said that Wanda had to lie flat for six hours. During these six hours, she could not drink water or eat anything. She could only moisten her lips with a cotton swab to make her feel better.Every ten minutes or so, Luca would moisten the cotton swab and wipe Wanda's lips.It was supposed to be Mrs. Lane's responsibility, but Luca insisted on doing it. Mrs. Lane could not argue with her for taking her job. She had no choice but to sit beside and watch them.As time ticked away, Wanda gradually regained her consciousness. The doctor gave her painkillers, so she no longer felt much pain. She looked more energetic.Wanda noticed how caring Luca was when she took care of her and said, "Luca, let Mrs. Lane do this.""Ms. Rayne, it's fine. Let me do it for a while. Mrs.
Old Master Mallory knew for sure that something had happened to Pierre. Otherwise, the hospital would not ask him to come at this hour.Old Master Mallory was greeted by the deputy director of the orthopedics department. Then, he asked, "Did Pierre injure this lady?" The deputy director nodded and replied, "Yes, Mr. Pierre suddenly woke up and scratched the nurse who came to change his IV needle..."After that, he glanced at Sunny, indicating that she was the nurse who was injured.It had only been a day since Pierre had undergone surgery. There was some inflammation in his body, accompanied by a low-grade fever.Anti-inflammatory IV injections were usually given to the patient in the morning, noon, and evening.When it was almost time, Sunny was about to go and give Pierre the IV injection, but he suddenly woke up and scratched Sunny.Pierre did not have long nails.However, he used so much strength that he clawed her and left two bloody scratches on Sunny.Sunny burst into
Karen had gone crazy? That was impossible! If she went crazy, it was definitely not because of him. It must be that scoundrel, Percy, who had driven her insane.Even though Pierre could not speak, he refused to believe that he had done anything wrong. He even thought that it was Percy’s fault he ended up like this. Perhaps Percy bribed Johann to make him a cripple!When Old Master Mallory noticed that Pierre refused to respond to him, he realized that his words were falling on deaf ears. He concluded that Pierre had gone mad because of his crippled leg.The nurse was wrong.Pierre would not listen to what he said!"You've always been strong since you were young, but how can a strong person not accept it just because they've lost a leg? They face difficulties head-on. Pierre, get better soon. I’ll still support you and help you get everything you want." Old Master Mallory felt exhausted. Even though he was still unhappy with Percy's choice of marrying Nina after the incident,
They did not get the information they wanted, but they did not let her go either. This indicated that Matysh had not exposed her. Mandy thought to herself that Maytsh was still loyal. Although he enjoyed fooling around with women, he did not drag them into this situation even though things had reached this far.It was good.Mandy did not know that Matysh had yet to tell the police that Leia and her were involved in this because he believed that Ethan could protect him. He believed that he would not end up in prison and would safely return to Russia. Why would he expose those two women? If he did expose them, he would be admitting that he had committed such a crime. Even if Ethan could rescue him, the two women might still feel resentful and drag him down once again.Therefore, it was not that Matysh did not want to expose them. It was because he believed he had a chance to get out. That was why he did not hand them over to the authorities.Mandy felt a sudden pain on her li
“Yes, Ma’am.” Rain’s subordinate thought that it was a good idea too.“Carry her to the secret room in the basement and have Surabaya…” Rain paused. When she mentioned Surabaya, she realized that she was still in the Norman Residence.She shook her head and ordered, “Untie her. Then, have Anita give her a change of clothes and dry her hair. Continue with the injections and apply some ointment to reduce scarring.”Changing her clothes and drying her hair was to prevent Mandy from getting sick.As for the injections, Mandy was bound to not wake up for the next couple of days, so she needed the nutrition from the IV drips.Rain did not want to do it herself, so she asked Anita, who was also a woman, to do it.“Yes, Ma’am.” The man carried Mandy out of the chair and walked downstairs.Anita hurried to the secret room after receiving Rain’s orders.While Mandy was being tied to the chair, the man saw her coming over and said, “I’ve got the clothes. Go help her change into them.”Ra
After pausing for less than half a minute, Leia started scolding again, “F*ck you, Surabaya. Once I get out of here, you'll be the first one I kill, you b*tch. I’ll find ten men to rape you. You’ll be thrown into the streets, and everyone will know what a sl*t you are!”Surabaya calmly took a sip of orange juice. It seemed like Leia had a new way of cursing.Where did she learn to curse like that?Surabaya was puzzled, so she looked toward the maid.The maid sighed and shook her head.The movie star who used to be oh-so-famous had become like this. If the media heard about this, she would no longer hold the title of ‘the innocent girl’.What kind of innocent girl would say such things?“Ms. Surabaya, I’ll go downstairs to work. Call me if you need anything,” the maid whispered. She dared not speak too loudly, because if Leia heard her, she would be scolded too.Leia had asked the maid to save her before, but the maid said that it was Jack’s orders and she had no power to do any
"Mrs. Norman, keeping Ms. Norman locked up like that isn’t a good idea. She has poor health, and we don't even know if she's taking her medicine properly," the maid expressed her concern.The pills were pushed through the hole in the door every day. However, did Leia really take them?"Ah, Mr. Noman didn't say anything about it, so we can't release her now." Queenie felt troubled. Leia’s incessant use of vulgar language gave her a headache as well.After Leia returned the supplements she had sent, Queenie became disheartened and decided to follow Jack's advice.Jack said that he wanted to keep Leia in the Norman Residence. Queenie agreed with him as she understood his intentions. She forced herself to muster the determination to do so.The maid could not help but express her thoughts, "I wonder how long Mr. Norman intends to keep Ms. Norman locked up."Queenie remained silent.Jack told her that keeping Leia confined was necessary as they waited for Luke to collect the evidence.
Previously, it was understandable for her to do so when Bianca was around.Leia had always liked Luke. Bianca’s appearance and identity took away some of Queenie's and Jack’s familial affection. It was normal for Leia to target her at every turn.However, it seemed that Leia had given up on liking Luke after that.Her current identity was Luca. The Norman family did not know about it. Logically speaking, there should be no vested interest between her and Leia. Yet, Leia was still targeting her...Luca really did not know why Leia held such a grudge against her. Could it be...?She turned to look at Luke. Her gaze was focused and somewhat peculiar. Was Leia still in love with Luke?Luke raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong?""Nothing. I’m going to apply some skincare products," said Luca as she lowered her eyes and glanced at the hand held tightly by Luke. Luke smiled and released her hand.Luca sat in front of the dressing table, carefully taking care of her skin in the mirror.
