Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle novel Chapter 2237

“Sure. I’ll do everything I can to help.” Luca’s heart was wrenched.

Although Jack and Queenie did not raise her, what happened at that time was involuntary. Luca could understand that. The kinship between them made her unable to reject Jack’s request.

"My wife isn't in great condition. Please look after her for me," said Jack. Queenie was the one he was most worried about.

Luca felt even more upset when she heard that.

As their daughter, what she hoped the most was her biological parents could live happily and stay healthy when they were in the latter years of their life. However, Queenie and Jack had to go back and forth to the hospital because of Leia.

“Let me take a look at her.” Luca nodded. She was afraid that Queenie would be even more anxious if she did not head there now.

“Okay. Then I’m… going back to the provincial capital first. I have a lot of work to do,” replied Jack. He was assured when Luca promised him to look out for Queenie.

It was a pity Jack promised Luke that he would not reveal Luca’s true identity to Queenie. Otherwise, he would have told her earlier.

Luca looked at the weariness on his face. She was heartbroken, so she said, “Sure. Don’t worry. Remember to get some rest when you have time.”

"Don't worry. I'm still able to hold on for another few years. I only hope that Bea can come back earlier." Jack shot her a meaningful glance. The elevator doors were about to close. Jack quickly pressed the button and walked in. Then, he said, "Off you go. Do help me look out for Mrs. Norman."

“Okay.” Luca slowly let out a sigh of relief after the elevator doors closed. For a split second, Luca could feel that the way Jack looked at her was as if he was looking at Bianca.

Perhaps it was all in her head…

How could Jack possibly know about her true identity?

Luca headed to Leia’s ward. Queenie was standing there waiting for her.

Before Luca could say anything, Queenie came forward and held her hand. “Luca, you’re here. Can you please take a look at Leia?”

Luca pulled back and held Queenie's hand. She gently patted the back of her hand and comforted her, "Mrs. Norman, calm down. Let me take a look at her first."

“Okay, okay,” Queenie repeated the same word twice as she pushed Leia’s ward door open.

“Leia was in pain just now, so Dr. Park gave her some painkillers. She’s asleep now. Besides, she doesn’t look too good to me. Even if someone makes noises beside her, it’s hard for her to wake up. I’m really worried… that she won’t be able to wake up after this…” Queenie wiped her tears off her face while looking at Leia, who was lying on the ward bed.

"Leia will be fine. She's asleep now, which means her body is recovering. Let me check her pulse," said Luca. To play it safe, Luca disinfected her hands and noticed the disposable gloves that the nurse left there. She put them on without a second thought.

Then, she walked to the ward bed and checked Leia’s pulse.

After a while, Luca frowned and rose to her feet.

Queenie asked in a worried tone, “How’s Leia doing?”

Luca could not help but feel sorry for Queenie when she saw the worried look on her face, but she dared not to hide it from her. She had no choice but to tell her the truth, "Ms. Norman's health isn't doing well. Has the doctor given her a full medical check-up?"

Leia’s situation had worsened so quickly. Luca reckoned that something must be wrong with her immune system.

“Yes. The doctor immediately rescued her when she came here last night. After her situation stabilized, they gave her every health screening that she could do. It’s just that some of the results aren’t released yet. We’ll have to wait until all the staff in the laboratory department hav come to work. Only then will the results be out.” Queenie wiped her tears again when she heard Luca tell her that Leia was not doing well.

What did Leia do to suffer all this pain?

Luca left in a hurry and headed to Johann's office.

Johann was reading Leia’s medical report.

“Dr. Craw, you’re here. Did you come to see Leia’s medical report?” Johann smiled and asked.

“Yes. Is her medical report out yet?” Luca asked.

Johann handed her Leia’s medical history record. Leia’s medical reports were clipped in the file. He answered, “They’re all out. This is the hard copy report. You need to take a look at her CT scans and some other reports. Let me show you. It’s on the computer.”

“Thank you.” Luca took the medical records from him and read the reports. Although she never attended any professional medical schools, Shanks taught her a lot when she was on the Island of Despair.

“Leia’s health is in a critical condition now. Previously, she was still able to get discharged from the hospital when her condition was stable. I’m afraid she’ll have to stay in the hospital now. Otherwise, she might pass away when she’s on her way back home,” said Johann.

Luca frowned and asked, "Why did her condition worsen? Her liver is deteriorating way too fast. Is it because of some other reasons?"

“She asked for it,” Johann replied in a lazy tone while he leaned back in his chair.

Fortunately, it was him who was on duty last night. If it were some other doctors, they might not be able to save Leia.

Luca sensed that something must have happened, so she asked, “Did she not cooperate during her treatment?”

“Nah, she did cooperate when she was receiving the treatment, but she made a big mistake yesterday morning,” replied Johann. “A woman came to visit her yesterday, and she claimed that she was her friend. Then, the two of them started smoking in the ward. The nurse told me about it. That woman wasn’t the only one holding a cigarette between her fingers. Leia was too.”
