Chapter 1951 In Case Luke Asks Me Where You Are

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Dr. Wood was annoyed by what Keith said. "Not anyone can do it. Dr. Craw's dry needling methods

are different from the traditional way. They're more complicated and precise. And that's why her

methods yield such good effects. If you don't believe her, you can go to other hospitals to try. The

effects of their doctors’ dry needling treatment definitely won't be as good as Dr. Craw's.”

"I just—" Keith started saying.

However, he was cut off by Larry, "Okay, that's enough.”

Keith could only stop talking.

Mrs. Hugh was afraid that what Keith had just said would offend Luca. If she refused to continue

treating Tyrone, his recovery might be indefinite.

Yesterday, she heard the nurse and the doctor discuss Tyrone's condition. They mentioned that the

probability of recovery was low. They were discussing how to prepare her mentally.

When she heard that, she felt as though the sky was falling.

Tyrone was still single. Even if Nina would compensate their family with a lot of money, she was

unsure if Tyrone would be able to get a good wife with that money.

She spent the entire night worrying about it. Tyrone was the only one left to extend the family

lineage. Even if other women were interested in him, they would likely only be in it for their family's

money. Hence, Tyrone might not be happy.

Luca had given her hope, so she said, "Dr. Craw, sorry. Keith said what he said because he’s worried

about Tyrone. Don't mind him."

Luca was not a calculative person. Although Keith's words were not the kindest, they did not hurt

her. She said, "For his treatment, he needs to go for dry needling once every three days. Once he

has completed three sessions, he can rest at home and wait for another three days to go back to the

hospital. He can look for Dr. Wood to continue with the dry needling sessions.”

"Okay, okay," Mrs. Hugh replied.

"What about physiotherapy? Does he need to do that too?" Johann asked when he remembered

that the rehabilitation department had arranged a treatment plan for him.

"Go for it as long as he doesn't get hurt.” Luca picked up her backpack.

Keith had another opinion. "What? Go home after three sessions? Tyrone won't be discharged from

the hospital until he fully recovers. Don't think about saving money for this woman. She said that

she'll take responsibility for all related costs. If something happens to him when he goes home—"

Johann interrupted him impatiently. "We will evaluate the patient's body before he’s discharged.

You don't have to worry about that.”

Keith wanted to say something else but Mrs. Hugh said sternly, "We'll listen to the doctor.”

"Aunt Jenny!" Keith's eyes widened. They had agreed the day prior that they would not discharge

Tyrone as long as he had yet to recover completely.

Nevertheless, as soon as Luca arrived, Mrs. Hugh changed her mind.

Larry knew what Keith was thinking about and put a hand on his shoulder. "Let's go for a smoke."

Keith still wanted to convince Mrs. Hugh. "Brother, I don't want to smoke. You can go if you want

to."

"Come with me even if you don't want to,” Tyrone said as he gripped Keith's shoulder and walked

out of the room.

The ward was finally quiet. Luca looked at Nina and said, "Nina, if all is well, I'll head off now.”

Johann joked and said, "Yes, it's time for her to go back. Otherwise, someone might not stop calling

me and I won't know how to explain this."

Luca shook her head helplessly and walked out of the ward.

She did not leave immediately. She thought of how Keith was forcibly brought out of the ward by

Larry and knew that they would be up to something.

Larry was a few years older than Keith. He was calm, unlike Keith, who was impetuous.

Although he was submissive on the surface and did not question Luca when she spoke, Luca knew

that he was thinking about the same thing as Keith.

Maybe he used smoking as an excuse to discuss something with Keith. She wondered if she would

get some useful information if she eavesdropped.

Luca smiled, took her phone, turned on the recording function, and hurried to the smoking area on

the same floor.

Larry and Keith were there.

Luca heard Keith's grumpy voice in the distance. She hid around the corner and pressed the record

button

Keith looked at Larry who was smoking calmly and stomped his feet. "Brother, why didn't you say

something to Aunt Jenny? We agreed on the next steps yesterday. How can she do such a 360? She

even told us to listen to the doctor! If she listens to the doctor, Tyrone will be discharged early and

his condition won't seem as serious. That woman may use this to refuse to give us more money. *

"Why are you impatient in front of them?" Larry let out a puff of smoke. The windows were open for

ventilation. After he zipped up his jacket, he slowly said, "Aunt Jenny made a promise, but that's all

there is to it. You won't be able to change her mind with just a few words. Let it be. I'm sure that as

the situation unfolds, she'll change her mind again and go against the doctor's words."

"How are you so sure?" Keith looked at him, confused.

"Do you think you're the only one thinking about asking for more money? She wants more money

as well.” Tyrone continued speaking, "Tyrone isn't doing well. He's not handsome and is even

handicapped now. If she doesn't ask for more money, how will any normal woman marry him in the

future? If the woman is abnormal, the children she gives birth to will be abnormal as well.”

"That's true.” Keith nodded in agreement. "However, it'd be a lie if I tell you that I wasn't worried

when she said what she said. How annoying is Dr. Craw?! It's all her fault!"

"Don't worry. As long as we work together, we'll be able to get a lot of money from Nina. At that

time, we'll mention that since we're also taking care of Tyrone, Aunt Jenny should give us a portion

of the payout. We'll be rich!” Tyrone put out his cigarette and threw the butt.

The cigarette butt did not land in the trash can but on the ground beside it.

Luca's mood sank as she listened to their conversation.

All they cared about was money. There was nothing else that mattered to them. Since they seem to

think that Tyrone would end up being disabled, she would never allow that to happen

Luca pressed the save button and made sure that the conversation was saved. She turned around to

leave and texted Johann to ask him where he was. After Johann told her that he had returned to his

office, she headed there.

After she walked in, Johann happened to hang his white coat on the hanger. She asked, "Dr. Park,

are you going for an operation?”

"Yeah, I postponed my surgery by an hour when I found out that you came to perform dry needling

treatment on a patient,” Johann said.

"Give me another five minutes. I need a piece of paper and a pen,” Luca said. She knew that he was

not in a hurry since the operation could be postponed for an hour.

Johann nodded and put a pen and paper in front of her.

Luca sat in the consultation chair, picked up the pen, lowered her head, and wrote a prescription on

the paper. She made a note of the dosage and the usage, then handed it to Johann. "This is for

Tyrone. It's getting late and I have to leave now. If you have any questions, feel free to drop me a

text.”

Johann glanced at the prescription and nodded. He said jokingly, "You should make a move soon, in

case Luke asks me where you are.”
