Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

Chapter 1368 Can You Hug Me?

Johann could not yet tell the severity of the child's fever. However, Luke seemed to think that it was a very serious

matter.

Luke nodded, though he had his doubts.

If the impostor Bianca's fever was caused by a special drug from the Island of Despair, and only the Island of

Despair had the cure for the drug, how did Luca manage to alleviate the effects of the drug when Bianca was in the

hospital?

Could Luca be also from the Island of Despair? Luke remembered how she had given Bianca a herbal concoction to

suppress the effects of the drug, and he also considered the fact that the hacker's location was near Luca's

neighborhood.

Whatever Luke was thinking, Johann had also thought about it. However, he was more concerned about Tommy's

condition, so he searched the database on his computer for Luca’s prescription.

Luca had given them two prescriptions, and he had recorded them in his database for future research.

He looked at the prescription and rubbed his chin. "This is the prescription that Dr. Craw gave Bianca last time. The

ingredients are entirely natural, but I can’t guarantee that it'll achieve the same effect if we don't know the drug

that Bianca used on Tommy."

In other words, Luke had to call Luca over.

Luke thought that he could not afford to waste anytime. He took out the phone and gave Luca a call.

At that moment, Luca had just clocked in at her office. She was about to don her lab coat and go into the laboratory

to continue her research when her phone began to ring. She furrowed her brows when she saw that the call was

from Luke.

Rhett knocked on the door to her office. The door was ajar, so he popped in and told her, "Dr. Craw, the report from

yesterday's tissue culture experiment is ready."

"Mm, I'll go over in a while," Luca nodded and said. She hesitated for a while before deciding that she should

answer the call. After all, Luke would not call her unless it was something urgent.

"Good morning, Mr. Crawford," she said stiffly.

Luke did not beat around the bush. "Tommy is in the hospital now, and his condition is quite peculiar. Can you come

to the hospital for a bit?"

Luca's heart skipped a beat when she heard Tommy was in the hospital. However, she reminded herself of her

identity now, and she composed herself before saying, "What happened? What did the doctors say?"

"He has a high fever. The blood test shows that everything was normal, but the fever keeps coming back. The

symptoms are very similar to Bianca's fever last month,"

Luke said.

Luca noticed that he said the name "Bianca" as though he was saying the name of a stranger.

She became anxious when she heard that Tommy was suffering. Remembering that Bianca had tried to abduct

Rainie so that she could gain some respect from Old Master Crawford, Luca wondered if this was also Bianca's ploy.

Luca could not sit still anymore. She said, "I'll go over to the hospital now, Mr. Crawford. Let me know where I can

meet you. Also, I'll need all of Tommy's test reports. Dr. Park should be at the hospital, right? Please ask him to send

the reports to me as soon as possible."

"Mm. Let me know what reports you need, and I'll get him to prepare them for you," Luke handed the phone to

Johann.

Johann took the phone. Before he could say anything, Luca rattled off a list of tests. Other than the usual blood test,

the hospital had not performed the others.

After Luca finished telling him the list, Johann replied," Alright, we'll go and make arrangements."

Then, Luca ended the call.

Sitting in front of his computer, Johann began to order the tests in the hospital system and used his authority to

assign them the highest priority. If what Luke said was true, Tommy was poisoned, and it was considered an

emergency.

Luke looked at his phone and looked at the words "Call Ended" for a few seconds. He sent a message to inform

Luca about Tommy's room number, then put his phone back in his pocket.

After ordering the tests, Johann snapped his fingers. "It's done," he said.

"Are they all regular tests?" Luke asked.

"No. Some of them are toxicology tests. I've put the tests on high priority, and the nurse will attend to Tommy soon.

Do you want to accompany him?" Johann said. Usually, the hospital would not perform toxicology tests during a

regular examination. If the regular tests could not provide any useful results, toxicology tests needed to be done.

"Mm. I'll return to the room for now," Luke said as he stood up. He knew that Tommy was very ill and needed him

the most.

Shortly after Luke returned to Tommy's room, the nurse came in and prepared to take a blood sample. After that,

she wanted to bring Tommy to another room to perform some tests.

Tommy squirmed uncomfortably and protested. Luke picked him up and carried him, while the caretaker followed

behind with the drip bottle.

Johann had given high priority to Tommy, so the tests were done in no time. After Luke returned to the room, Luca

came in through the door.

She saw Luke carefully place Tommy on the bed, so she asked, "Has he done the tests?"

"Mm, but the report will take a while.” After Luke tucked Tommy in, he turned around and looked at Luca.

Luca looked obviously tired. She probably did not sleep well.

"Mm, let's wait." She watched the caretaker hang the drip bottle on the rack, then looked at the little boy on the

bed.

The nurse measured Tommy's temperature with a thermometer. Luca asked, "What's his temperature?"

"His condition is improving after receiving some medication. It's 99.5 degrees now," the nurse replied.

Tommy was not completely asleep. When he heard Luca's voice, he opened his eyes and said, "Ms. Luca? Is she

here?"

Luke nodded.

Luca went up to the side of the bed, and her heart wrenched when she saw that Tommy's face was pale. "Yes,

Tommy, I'm here."

"I feel horrible, Ms. Luca." Tommy flipped to his back and looked at her. He had cried earlier when the nurse took his

blood sample. His eyes were bloodshot.

When Luca saw that, she wanted to hug him.

Tommy continued, "Ms. Luca, can you give me a hug? When I was sick, my Mommy used to hug me to sleep."

Luke wanted to say something when he heard Luca say," Alright."

She sat down on the bed, leaned on the headboard, and

brought Tommy into her arms.

Tommy shifted a little so that he was comfortable, then closed his eyes.

Luke could not help but feel emotional when he saw Tommy sleeping peacefully in Luca's embrace. It looked as

though Luca and Tommy were mother and son.

In Crawford Manor, the caretaker was the closest adult female to Tommy. Even she could not calm Tommy down

when the nurse took Tommy's blood sample.

Tommy was not naughty, but he would throw tantrums whenever he was angry. Bianca was like that too...

Luke looked at Luca and thought about his missing wife. Could Luca be from the Island of Despair too?
