After Old Man Rayne went downstairs, the four of them sat together at the dining table.

Old Man Rayne was smiling the entire time because of Luke's arrival and Luca giving him hope. While they were eating, he talked about his experience living in Japan.

Luca did not say much and just listened carefully.

She had missed out on time with them, so when Old Man Rayne talked about the past, she listened carefully and remembered everything.

After dinner, Luke sat with Luca for a while before deciding to leave.

Luca did not say anything and left with him.

After Wanda sent them off, she got back into the house. Old Man Rayne was drinking tea comfortably.

"Have you seen them off?" Old Man Rayne asked.

"Yeah." Wanda looked solemn. She sat on the sofa and refilled Old Man Rayne's cup of tea. "Dad, I have something to say."

Old Man Rayne noticed her serious expression and asked, "Do you want to talk about Ms. Craw?"

Although Old Man Rayne was in poor health, he was still smart and could immediately tell what she was thinking.

Wanda nodded and said, "Although Luke said that Ms. Craw's medical skills are wonderful, I still think that this large amount of medication will affect your body. Maybe we should get the opinion of other doctors?"

Old Man Rayne shook his head and said, "The other doctors were also recommended by Luke, and this doctor who's helping me now is also recommended by Luke. Do you not trust Luke? Or rather, is it Ms.

Craw you don't trust?"

Wanda stopped talking. She did not trust Luca. Although she felt like Luca was familiar at first glance, she still did not trust her.

Old Man Rayne added, "Is it because she's young? Wanda, you left for Japan with that man a long time ago and have gained a lot of experience. You must know that a person's skill is not necessarily proportional to age."

"I know, Dad. I'm just worried about your health," Wanda explained helplessly.

"I believe in Luke, and I also believe in Ms. Craw. The first time I saw her, I got a familiar feeling as though I'd bumped into a relative I hadn't seen for a long time. Otherwise, why do you think I'm in such a good mood today? "Old Man Rayne winked at Wanda playfully. Despite his poor health, he was

indeed in a good mood today.

"Dad, uh..." Wanda was stunned. Luca did not talk to Old Man Rayne much but had already won him over.

She knew it was not simply because of Luke.

"I'm just an old man with half my foot in the coffin. There's no way Ms. Craw would trick me," Old Man Rayne continued talking.

Wanda had no other choice and said, "I don't think Ms. Craw's relationship with Luke is normal. If she continues to treat you, they might get closer. Bea hasn't come back yet. I don't want her to lose her

husband when she comes back."

Old Man Rayne kept silent for a moment when Bianca was mentioned.

Even if he was not biologically related to Bianca, their relationship of more than 20 years would not change because of that.

"We should trust Luke," Old Man Rayne said.

Wanda sighed. She had experience in such situations, so she could sense something even if it was minor. Just now when Luca and Luke were still here, Luke often looked at Luca. She had a bad premonition.

"Don't sigh. Even if there's something between them, are we in a place to stop them? Although we all hope that Bea is still alive, there has been no news for so many years. We should just let it be." Old Man Rayne comforted her instead.

"I know, Dad." Wanda could not take it easy, but she knew that there was nothing she could do.

After all, Bianca had been missing for so long and Luke had a fake Bianca by his side. Although she heard that their relationship was not the best, she and Old Man Rayne were not in the position to say anything.

Wanda thought that Old Man Rayne seemed to really like Luca. She sighed, stood up, and said, "Dad, do you want to go upstairs?"

Old Man Rayne put down the teacup, nodded, and said, "By the way, if you're free later, go to the pharmacy and buy those herbs back. I want to drink it as soon as possible and see how it goes.”

"Okay." Wanda had no choice but to agree.

...

On the other hand.

Luca sat in the passenger seat and looked at the receding scenery outside the car window. She thought about it for a while and then thanked him. "Thank you."

"What are you thanking me for?" Luke asked knowingly.

Luca was at a loss for words. She was not sure how to reply. Should she say she was thanking him for bringing her to visit her grandfather? However, she was not Bianca. She was Luca, and the Rayne family were strangers to her.

She made a random excuse to prevaricate. "Old Man Rayne's health is not good and this disease is difficult to treat. I'm only 80 percent sure that I can treat this disease but with him becoming my patient, I feel confident about treating this disease in the future. So, thank you."

Luke listened to her prevarication. Instead of uncovering her lie, he said, "I've given you another case study?"

Luca felt weird, nodded, and said, "Yes... I guess."

She felt that something was wrong.

Luke added, "You should be thanking me, then."

"..." Luca did not expect that he would respond to a lame reason as such and even be sarcastic about it.

Seeing that she stopped talking, Luke said, "Actually, I should thank you. Old Man Rayne has been troubled by this disease for a long time. Sometimes, Johann would do home visits to check on him but

his condition has not improved even with medication. At most, they just delay the effects of his disease.

I believe his health will get better with you treating him."

Luca replied with a hum. Just then, her phone rang.

She glanced and saw that Queenie was calling. She hesitated for a few seconds and eventually answered, "Hello, Mrs. Norman."

Luke knew it was Queenie on the other end of the phone when he heard her.

He slowed down the car. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

Luca sensed that the speed of the car was slowing down and looked at him on purpose.

Luke continued to drive without saying anything.

Queenie, who was on the other end of the phone, said anxiously, "Luca, where are you now?"

"I'm out. What's wrong?" Luca asked.

"Can you come over to Norman Residence now? I have a situation." Queenie was crying.

Luca glanced at Luke. Leia was probably the only one who could make Queenie so anxious.

She was afraid that Leia had done something wrong, damaged her body, and regretted it, which was why Queenie was so eager to look for her.

Luke was still with her...

‘Should I get off halfway and take a taxi to Norman Residence?' Luca looked at Luke again and asked Queenie, "Take a deep breath and tell me what happened."

Queenie looked at the half-dead Leia lying on the bed and could not hold back her tears.
