"Regardless of what's on your mind, we need to act fast now. It's a matter of life and

death," said Johann as he looked at how Luca hesitated with a hint of helplessness.

While she was attending to other patients, she displayed a decisive and efficient

demeanor. It was as though she was one of the hospital's doctors, racing against the clock

to snatch back lives from the clutches of the Grim Reaper.

However, Luca became indecisive when it came to Queenie’s situation.

Johann could understand, but he still felt a bit helpless.

"Dr. Park, I'm concerned that Mrs. Norman might get emotional when she sees me. How

about this? You get the sedative ready. If she gets agitated, give her the shot, and I'll

proceed with dry needling."

Luca took a deep breath. Even though using sedatives excessively was harmful to the

body, it seemed like the only option now.

Luca was afraid that once she stepped into the ward, Queenie's emotions might soar,

causing her blood pressure to skyrocket.

"Alright, but I need to assess the patient's condition. She's not in the right state for a

sedative in her current state. I'll have to figure something out before I hit her with

anything big."

Although Johann knew Queenie did not actually need a sedative, he agreed with Luca.

He had to play the whole act.

He had to pretend not to know. Otherwise, if there were any slip-ups, Luke's carefully

orchestrated plan might fail, and he would not be able to explain himself.

"Got it," Luca nodded, agreeing with him.

Johann immediately went to the nurse's station and prescribed a sedative for Queenie.

The pharmacy quickly delivered the medicine to him. As Johann held the sedative, he

returned to the ward.

"Dr. Craw, the sedative is ready."

Luca took another deep breath, turned off her phone, and mustered her courage. She took

a step forward. Her hands landed on the door handle. The icy sensation crept from her

palm, tracing a chilly path down to her feet.

She felt as though she had been submerged in an ice bucket, with the air around her

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt

freezing. She simply could not muster any warmth.

Enduring the discomfort in her body, she pushed the door open.

There was a faint creak. The door opened with a faint sound due to the high-quality door

of the VIP ward. However, Luca was currently full of nerves and was on edge due to the

noise.

This sound was equivalent to her truly facing Queenie. She was unable to predict the

upcoming situation.

Luca did have a way to temporarily stabilize the blood pressure of a hypertensive patient

using dry needling. That was why she would not panic in such situations.

What made her anxious was that the person she needed to treat was Queenie.

She wanted to save Queenie, but at the same time, she was afraid of facing her

questioning, disappointed, and angry face...

She should be doing her duties as her daughter, not upsetting her mother.

The maid in the ward turned around and met Johann's eyes when she saw Luca come in.

Then, she said, "Dr. Park, Ms. Craw, please help Mrs. Norman. She. She..."

The maid forgot the lines Queenie told her earlier.

Johann quickly took over. "We need to treat the patient. You may leave first."

The maid remembered Johann's earlier instructions when she heard this. She glanced at

Queenie on the bed and quickly walked out.

Then, she closed the door behind her.

Luca stared at Queenie, who was lying on the hospital bed, with reddened eyes.

Her complexion was dismal, and even her lips were pale. However, her bed was not fully

reclined. Instead, she was semi-reclined on the bed. The nearby instruments were

beeping, indicating the patient's critical condition.

Queenie was also looking at her.

Luca noticed her weak expression. She could not help but be struck when she caught a

glimpse of her own reflection. A multitude of emotions flashed across her eyes, leaving

Luca stunned for a moment.

Her lips parted slightly, yet she could not manage to utter a single word.

She wanted to ask how Queenie was feeling now.

However, when she saw the continuously fluctuating numbers on the monitor, it seemed

like asking that question would be meaningless.

Should she explain? Luca's mouth slightly opened, but words would not come out. She was

not the mistress, but she felt inexplicably guilty when she met Queenie's questioning

gaze.

Luca knew where this guilt came from.

It stemmed from the moment she returned. She had been lying to Queenie.

She was not Luca. She was Bianca!

As Johann waited for Luca to speak, he recalled that this was all a charade. If Luca really

went ahead and examined Queenie or treated her, she would surely find out something.

He shot a glance at Queenie. Even though Queenie was acting like they had planned,

Johann knew that she must be quite excited at the moment.

Hence, he took the initiative to speak, "Mrs. Norman, your blood pressure has been

persistently high. Without waiting for your consent, I took the liberty of bringing Dr. Craw

in to treat you. She'll perform dry needling on you to stabilize your blood pressure."

"Dr. Park." Queenie secretly calmed herself down when she heard what Johann said. After

all, her ultimate goal was not to see Luca but to have Luca lay everything bare in front of

her.

"Well, should we let Dr. Craw check your pulse first?" Johann continued to go along with

her words.

Luca heard this, but she did not step forward. If Queenie did not agree, she would not dare

to approach her.

"I'd like to have a word with Dr. Craw. Could you please step out?" Queenie's tone was

weak. She, being an actress, easily expressed that weakness.

Queenie's voice carried a noticeable fragility, which skillfully accentuated her vulnerability.

Having battled with illness for a long time in the past, even though she was now physically

fit, her roots in the world of acting allowed her to effortlessly portray a sense of weakness.

"Well..." Johann glanced at Queenie, then at Luca.

He eventually said in a low voice, "Dr. Craw, I don't think Mrs. Norman is as emotional as

we imagined. Why don't you two have a talk first? It's better to perform dry needling when

the patient is in a clear state."

Luca knew that treating patients when they were awake was the best, as it allowed

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

continuous observation of their reactions.

Drugged patients were unresponsive. Even if their vital signs stabilized, they could not tell

doctors their discomfort in other areas of their bodies.

Therefore, whether in naturopathy or what Shanks taught her, it was best to perform dry

needling when the patient was awake.

"Dr. Park..." Even though the person in front of her was her mother, Luca did not want to

face her alone.

She felt guilty.

Before Johann could finish his sentence, Queenie added, "Dr. Craw, I'd like to talk... to

you!"

Queenie managed to get a sentence out relatively smoothly, but her tone was even lower,

and she seemed to be in pretty bad shape.

Luca sensed the weakness in her tone and the lack of energy in her speech. An

inexplicable fear arose in her heart. If this continued, Queenie might not hold up for much

longer.

What happened to Queenie back then came across her mind. Leia was already detained in

a detention center. Bianca was her only emotional support at the moment.

Yet, in Queenie's eyes, she was the culprit who destroyed Bianca's happy marriage.

"Dr. Craw?" Johann nudged Luca a bit when he saw her in a daze. "The stability of the

patient is more important right now.

“She hasn't been cooperating with treatment for the past few days. Perhaps she's waiting

for you. If you could have a chat with her, she might be down for the treatment, and

things might turn around." "I..." Luca opened her mouth slightly. She felt like something

was stuck in her throat. She wanted to say something, but she could not get a complete

sentence out.

Her mind was blank.

"Just roll with it. If you have a little chat with her, it might boost her mood. Who knows, it

could do wonders for the treatment too?" Johann continued persuading Luca.

Honestly, he had no interest in getting involved in this kind of thing. If it were not for

Luke's sake, he would not have bothered at all.
