The patient who was being pointed at furrowed her brows. No one liked being pointed at with a finger
that way. However, judging from Leia''s aggressive personality, if she were to retort, she would definitely
get criticized and end up having a heart attack.
Hence, she held back and gave Leia a cold snort without saying a word.
Leia seethed with anger at the thought of her failing to hurt Luca after spending all that money. Also,
she was pissed after she overheard them speaking ill of her when she was in the restroom a moment
ago. Leia was so infuriated that she immediately got out of bed and tried to get into a fight with the
patient next to her bed. "I''m going to rip your mouth apart today!"
The caretaker immediately stopped her. "Ms. Norman, calm down."
"Get out of my way!" Leia pushed the caretaker.
However, the caretaker was good at martial arts. Leia pushed her hard, but instead of pushing away
the caretaker, Leia staggered and slumped onto her bed while the caretaker remained steadfast.
"Ms. Norman, did you hurt yourself?" The caretaker pretended to be concerned. How could Leia be
able to push her and make her fall?
Although Leia was aggressive, she was a sickly person. There was no way she could win against
someone who had been training at the base all year round.
"Go away!" Leia shook off the caretaker''s hand. She suspected that the caretaker did this on purpose,
but she had no evidence.
Why did the force rebound to herself?
The caretaker wore an innocent expression on her face. As she watched Leia rub her waist after sitting
back down, she knew Leia really fell when she made that gesture. She was pleased to see that.
Teasing Leia was entertaining.
The other two patients saw the defeated look on Leia''s face. Their lips curled into a smile. However,
they did not burst outughing because Leia was not someone to be messed with. If theyughed out
loud, there would be no peace in the ward.
On the other side of the hospital...
The researcher walked out of the consultation room after getting his wound dressed.
Luca stood up and walked toward him. Then, she asked, "How are you feeling?"
"It''s just an external injury. I''ll be fine as long as the wound doesn''t get wet," replied the researcher. He
did not expect that Luca and Luke would personally escort him to the hospital. They even talked to the
director of the burn unit to treat his wound.
"Well, Mr. Crawford said he''s gonna give you a week''s rest. Take care of your wound ande to the
hospital on time to change your dressings. You don''t have toe to work during this period," said
Luca. This was what she had just discussed with Luke.
"It''s alright, Dr. Craw. I can work. You''re preparing tounch a new project. I''m afraid the office will be
short-staffed if I take a few days off." The researcher shook his head. He used to think that Luca was a
cold person, but he realized that he was wrong now.
Luca was not cold at all. She treated the employees well.
"The project has not officially started yet. We don''t need that many people now," replied Luca. It was
her fault that he got injured. She should give him a few days off to recover from the injury.
Fortunately, it did not lead to a particrly serious ident this time.
"Listen to Dr. Craw''s advice," said Luke when he noticed that the researcher was about to say
something.
The researcher had no choice but topromise and reply, "Alright. Thank you, Mr. Crawford. Thank
you, Dr. Craw."
Luca shook her head. She was not the one who should be thanked for this.
"The driver is waiting outside to send you back home. The license te ends with 8288," added Luke.
When he was waiting for the researcher''s wound to be treated, Warren, who was usually responsible
for picking up Luca, also arrived at the hospital.
Therefore, he asked Warren to send the researcher back home, while he nned to let Lliam send
them back.
"Okay. Thank you, Mr. Crawford," the researcher said again before leaving the emergency room.
Luke looked at Luca and asked, "We''re already at the hospital. Would you like to go upstairs and visit
them?"
Luca knew he was talking about visiting Mr. and Mrs. Norman as well as Wanda. She nced at the
time and shook her head. "It''s a bitte now. I''ll visit them on Sunday."
Even though she cared about them, it was already gettingte, and they were not people who would
stay upte at night. They were probably in bed now.
It was rude to visit them now.
"Alright." Luke understood what she meant. "Let''s go home, then."
"Okay..." Luca nodded and left the hospital with Luke. They got into Lliam''s car.
As soon as the car door was closed, Luke''s phone buzzed.

After he sat down, he took his phone out and nced at it. It was a message from Rain. He read it and
gave his order: [Something''s wrong with Leia. Find out what she''s up to and send her to the police
station.]
[Yes, boss.] Rain replied after reading his message.
Rain looked at the information sent by her subordinate.
The Abaza family already knew that Matysh was being held by the police here.
They also took measures in response by sending their dedicated attorney to A City. Furthermore, they
were nning to contact the embassy and pressure them to extradite Matysh to Russia.
"How naive." Rain closed the file andmented on the Abaza family''s actions.
What was the point of sending an attorney who only knew some international and Russianws?
Matysh vited thew in A City. The attorney would probably have to consult the legal code when he
was defending him.
Besides, what Matysh did had already caused a sensation in A City. Many people were following the
progress of this case. The police in A City were not to be messed with either. They would not give
special treatment just because the perpetrator was a foreigner.
Matysh was destined to serve his prison sentence in A City. Even if his attorney or the embassy came
to defend him, they had no choice but to follow thews and regtions of A City.
"Who are you calling naive?" Gale walked into the kitchen with a cup and poured himself a coffee.
Rain frowned. “Are you serious about having coffee at this hour?”
"I''m nning to stay up all night. I have some leads on Leia''s case. Gotta strike while the iron is hot.
We might be able to get her locked up this week."
"Speaking of Leia, I''ve got some news from the hospital staff." Rain forwarded the message she
received from the caretaker to Gale.
"Tsk, Leia is a real troublemaker." Gale looked at the message and took a sip of his coffee.
"She''s going to prison soon. I''ll spare her a day or two. After that, she''ll have to work hard to reform
herself in prison for the rest of her life."
"I''m not sure if I can finish my work in a day or two," replied Gale.
"The Abaza family sent over an attorney who has no idea about the rules in A City. He may be the key
to getting Matysh to talk. Boss might do something to him, and Matysh might be able to rat Leia out,"
spected Rain. Matysh refused to admit anything or talk now. She reckoned that he was waiting for
the attorney.
The attorney the Abaza family hired was famous in Russia and known worldwide.
"Well, I''m looking forward to it. The more we uncover about Leia''s past, the more nauseating it
bes," Gale finished his coffee.
He was responsible for investigating and digging into Leia''s past. The deeper he dug, the more he
realized that she was not an ordinary woman.
Leia was a shameless woman who yed dirty tricks.
