Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3206

Sunny felt a pang of hurt as she heard Gordan addressing Luca as his sister-in-law. She also remembered Gale and the others referring to Luke as 'Boss' just moments ago.

Her eyes reddened as she turned toward Luke.

However, he did not even glance at her, completely ignoring her grievances.

Sunny suppressed the urge to cry. She knew as a nurse there were things she could not say and people she could not mess with.

All she could say was, “I'm saying this for your own good. Besides, I don't know about this lady's ability. You've just had surgery and are still under anesthesia. It really isn't appropriate to perform dry needling on you at this time.”

“I’m sorry,” Luca heard her and said indifferently to the nurse before removing the needles.

Gordan was puzzled. “Huh?”

“It's already been five minutes. That's enough,” replied Luca. She did not remove the needles because of Sunny's words but because the allotted time was up.

Initially, Sunny's expression had softened slightly at Luca's apology and action of removing the needles. It turned out she had some awareness.

However, she now realized Luca had not done it because of her words but simply because time was up.

Her expression turned grim. She felt the urge to explode in anger but was holding back. She had not forgotten that she was a nurse who was still on duty.

Moreover, she was in front of Luke. She had to restrain her temper and maintain her image.

“You're amazing! A few needles and he looks so much better.” Gale stood by, enjoying the spectacle. He was unbothered and openly complimented Luca.

Sunny glanced at Gordan. Indeed, his spirit and complexion had improved significantly.

She wanted to deny Luca's dry needling skills. Thus, she said, “Patients tend to gradually recover their spirit after general anesthesia.”

Gale understood the implication behind Sunny's words and nodded. “Oh, you said it and it happened. I mean, I saw Gordan looking half-dead a minute ago, and now, he's all perked up. That's seriously some crazy stuff!”

Feeling embarrassed, Sunny bit her lip. She felt that she could not bear this anymore and announced, “I came to check on the patient. He seems fine now, but he still needs to lie flat for eight hours. Don’t be careless.”

Then, she was about to leave.

Gale stopped her. “Wait.”

“Yes?” Sunny halted reluctantly. She had already endured enough humiliation here. Was he going to embarrass her further?

She did not want to lose her dignity in front of Luke or Luca.

Sunny was a nurse, and her medical knowledge was not as extensive as a doctor's. This woman in front of her might not be a doctor, but she seemed more knowledgeable in medicine than her.

Sunny glanced at Luca's face again. Her features were delicate with a hint of feminine allure despite not wearing any makeup.

Luca was dressed professionally. Even though Sunny could not tell what Luca’s profession was, she looked sharp in her professional attire. One could tell she had a great figure.

There was not a man who would not like a woman like that.

Sunny felt even more disheartened. Earlier, she had been proud of herself as a nurse was a profession many men admired. It was a respectable job, and it was a solid career choice.

Moreover, she had connections with the hospital director. Given enough years of service, she could certainly become head nurse or even department head.

In short, her career started on a higher note than many others.

However, these advantages of hers did not seem advantageous at all compared to Luca. They were even embarrassing.

Plus, it was not just one admirer. There were probably others too.

As Luca thought about it, another smile crept onto her lips.

Luke noticed her smile and wore a helpless expression.

Gordan continued, “Alright, Boss. I'm feeling much better now. You should go back with Dr. Craw. Get busy. Gale will let you know if anything happens.”

Luke nodded and turned to look at Luca. “Are you heading back to the company?”

“No, I asked Mr. Link to arrange for me to take the afternoon off. I'll go straight home,” replied Luca. Since she had already taken leave, she could use the time to do some research at home.

“Alright, let me take you home first,” suggested Luke, taking Luca's hand and leaving.

After they left the ward, Rain happened to return and ran into them.

“Boss, Bianca, are you heading back?” asked Rain with a bag in her hand.

“Yes.” Luke nodded.

Luca glanced at the bag, which was transparent and contained lemons. Then, she said, “Please look for a bamboo skewer or a disposable fork later, insert them into the lemons, and place them next to Mr. Norton's bed. This way, the lemon fragrance will continue to diffuse. If it fades, just move them to another spot.”

Some people were sensitive to anesthesia, and they usually found the scent of lemon helpful in alleviating dizziness and nausea. That was why she requested lemons.

“Okay, got it, Dr. Craw.” Rain nodded and entered the ward.

Luca and Luke left, passing by the nurse's station. Sunny's sense of grievance had not subsided. Seeing Luke walking alongside Luca only deepened her frustration.
