Chapter 1276 He’s Lucky That You’re Here

Hearing from her serious tone that she had mistaken what he meant, Johann quickly wagged his hands and shook his head. "You say that the two people are college kids, but they have to know certain people in order to get their hands on this poison. Mr. Doyle is still at the police station, isn't he? Get him to keep a close eye on the two kids. Don't let them get away." : owner of this content.

Luca pressed her lips when she heard that. The nurse had injected the serum earlier, and it had not taken effect yet.

"I'll go and make a call," she said.

"Mm." Johann nodded. "I'll take care of him."

Luca went to the balcony. A gust of night wind made her shiver. It was only then that she realized that she went to the hospital in her pajamas. In her anxiety over Luke's condition, she had forgotten to change her clothes.

She gave a call to Jason and told him about Luke's condition.

Jason was furious when he found out that Luke was poisoned. "I won't let them off so easily."

"Mr. Doyle, Mr. Crawford has already received the serum, and his condition will improve soon. However, his body will be weak for the next few days. I'll keep an eye on him, so you can handle the matters at the police station without worry. Also, investigate the background of the two students.

Dr. Park said that the snake venom can only be found on the black market. They wouldn’t have gotten their hands on it unless they knew certain people," Luca said.

"Alright, I understand. I'll get to the bottom of this," Jason said. "Thanks for taking care of Mr. Crawford, and Little Mr. Crawford..."

"Don't worry, I'll take good care of them," Luca said. The night wind rose again, and she rubbed her arms and sighed.

She could not remain calm after knowing that Luke's life was in danger.

If Abel knew what happened tonight, he would definitely use that fact against her.

Luca remembered Abel's sinister gaze and rancorous expression whenever Luke was mentioned, and that made her shudder uncontrollably.

She thought that the Island of Despair was not involved in the incident, but that did not seem to be the case.

After realizing this possibility, Luca quickly went back to the hospital ward.

Color had already returned to Luke's face, and his lips were not as dark as earlier. However, he had not regained consciousness.

Tommy came up to her when he saw her. "Ms. Luca."

"Good boy. Your Daddy will be fine." Luca patted Tommy's head and continued to gaze at the man lying on the bed.

"The serum is working. I estimate that he should be awake before dawn," Johann said.

Luca nodded and said gratefully, "Thank you so much, Dr. Park.”

"You're welcome. I'm glad that he's fine," Johann said and yawned. He was exhausted after attending a full day of lectures, and he would rather be taking care of patients.

Luca could see that he was tired. She said, "I can look after Mr. Crawford. You should go back and rest."

Johann was less worried about Luke now that he had received the serum, and he really needed the rest. He said," Alright, I'll be going back to my hotel. I'll come and check on him again tomorrow morning."

"Mm." Luca nodded.

Johann saw that Luca was only dressed in thin pajamas and guessed that she was in a hurry to get Luke to the hospital. He took off his coat and placed it on the couch. "It's cold at night. You can use my coat. Careful, don't catch a cold."

"Thanks." Luca glanced at the coat Johann placed on the couch, then looked at Luke on the bed.

Even though Luca seemed composed, Johann could tell that she was worried. He smiled and spoke to Tommy, "Do you want to go back to the hotel with me?"

Tommy shook his head and held on to Luca's hand tightly. "I want to take care of my Daddy with Ms. Luca."

Johann did not force the boy to go with him. "If you need anything, just give me a call. I'll bring it over tomorrow morning."

"Alright, thank you." Luca's gaze did not move away from the bed.

Johann left the ward and closed the door behind him.

"Let's go and sit down, Ms. Luca." Tommy shook Luca's hand and said.

Luca nodded and led him to the couch. Tommy was also in his pajamas, but he was also wearing a jacket.

She hugged him tightly in his arms to give him a sense of safety. 2

He must have been traumatized by the events earlier.

Tommy curled up in Luca's arms, though his eyes were on his father on the bed. "Daddy will be fine, right?"

Luca patted Tommy's forehead, and her heart wrenched. Indeed, he was quite affected.

"He's not in danger now. He'll be okay after a night's sleep." She spread out Johann's coat to cover her and Tommy.

"I'm so glad that you're here, Ms. Luca. Otherwise, Daddy might have died," Tommy said as he hugged her arm tightly.

Luca's eyelids drooped. The boy said that Luke was lucky that she was around, but he did not consider that Luke was injured because of her.

If she were not here, none of that would have happened.

"Alright, let's not think too much about it. We should sleep for now, and when we wake up, your Daddy will wake up too, " Luca comforted him.

"Mm, okay, Ms. Luca." Tommy nodded.

The couch was wide enough for them to sleep side by side. Luca slept near the edge so that Tommy would not roll off.

They lay there quietly with Johann's coat as their blanket.

Luca was not sleepy at all, but she closed her eyes to give the child next to her a sense of security.

Tommy had been looking at her for some time. Eventually, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Luca opened her eyes after sensing that the child's breathing had become even.

She could not sleep after what had happened. Instead, she sighed and hugged Tommy more tightly. She did not move so that the child could have a good night's sleep.

The night passed slowly.

Luca heard a slight noise coming from the bed. She immediately sat up and looked in that direction.

Luke was awake.

Luca stood up and observed that the color of his face had returned to normal.

"Are you alright?" She asked.

Luke frowned when he saw Luca standing there in her pajamas. "Am I in the hospital?"

"Mm." Luca nodded.

"What happened?" Luke asked.

"Don't you remember?" Luca took another step so that she could observe Luke's condition more closely.

"I remember a little." Luke tried to recall what happened the night before. He was reading some work emails when he felt his head spin and his body ache. He wanted to lie down to make himself feel

better, but his condition became worse overtime.
