Luca glanced at the sign that was still lit up in the emergency room. She asked, "Is Ms. Norman in there?"
"Yes. After she was sent to the hospital, the doctor sent her here and asked us to wait. They haven't come out since
and no doctor has told me what's happening inside. Luca, please save her..."
Not many were allowed to enter the hospital's emergency room, including Luca.
Queenie said what she said out of panic.
Luca reassured her, saying, "Mrs. Norman, you have to trust the doctors. They're saving Ms. Norman's life now. If I
go in, it may disrupt their work. Let's wait until the doctor comes out to find out what's happening."
Her voice had the ability to calm Queenie, who wiped her tears and nodded. "Okay, okay. I'll wait here."
Luca sat with her on the bench in the hallway and waited.
Queenie was still worried. She clasped her hands together and recited the Bible in a soft voice to pray for Leia.
Luca noticed it but she was helpless in this situation.
15 minutes later, the doctor came out and the nurse asked, "Who's Leia Norman's family?"
Queenie stood up immediately and said, "I'm Leia's mother. Doctor, how is my daughter doing?"
The doctor took off their mask and said with a serious expression, "The patient is not doing well. She needs to be
admitted to the hospital for treatment."
Queenie staggered when she heard that. Luca was attentive and immediately gave her a hand. "Mrs. Norman, be
careful."
Queenie shook her head and continued to ask the doctor, "Doctor, what do you mean by that Is my daughter's life
in danger?"
"Based on the records you've provided, she has been on medication but those medicines had no effect on her. This

monitoring. If the situation takes a turn for the worse, we'll make a judgment call. If necessary, we'll highlight her
situation to the management and put her in the queue for an organ transplant," the doctor said.
Queenie understood that an organ transplant could help Leia but the legal route might take a long time.
Some waited until the end of their lives but still could not obtain the organs they needed.
Considering Jack's status, even if they had the money, they could not get these organs through other channels.
The doctor's words were undoubtedly a death sentence for Leia.
Queenie held Luca's hand tightly and said, "Doctor, let Luca take a look. Maybe she can help my daughter."
Luca wanted to say that she could not help with much. At most, she could use dry needling to relieve Leia's pain.
However, Queenie saw Luca as Leia's savior.
The doctor looked at Luca and asked, "Are you also a doctor? Which hospital or clinic are you from?"
Luca shook her head. She did not have a medical license, so she did not consider herself a doctor. She explained
helplessly, "I'm not a doctor."
"If you're not a doctor, aren't you making a fool of yourself by saying that you want to save her?" The doctor
scolded Luca, thinking that Luca was a conwoman. He had seen too many of such cases in the hospital. When the
surgery, or other medical methods, were no effective, patients would panic and go to anyone who claimed that
they could help. Scammers as such would only delay the patient's treatment.
Luca explained, "I'm not a conwoman. Can I go in and visit the patient?"
"You can't enter the emergency room as you please. The family members have to go through the admission
procedures, then we'll send the patient to the ward. You're not allowed to fool around even after she's in the ward.
If something happens, the hospital will not be responsible,” the doctor warned her.
Luca shot Queenie a helpless look, but she only looked back at Luca with pleading eyes.
"If something happens, we'll take responsibility." Luca could not resist the pleading in her eyes, so she gritted her
teeth and said directly. Although she was not 100% sure that she could help much, at least she would not worsen
Leia's condition.
The doctor said disdainfully when he heard Luca's response, "Can you guarantee it? You're not a doctor. If you insist
on doing things your way, I'll prepare a document for you to sign off on and the family will bring the patient home.
As long as you're not in the hospital, you can do what you want. However, if you're in the hospital, it's still my
responsibility if something goes wrong even if you've given your guarantee prior. I'm unwilling to bear that
responsibility."
What he said was true. There were many medical disputes, so doctors had to do what they needed to.
Luca said, "Please give me a moment."
The doctor looked at her and frowned. 'This woman doesn't look like a conwoman. How can she still do such a
deceitful thing?'
Luca did not have the time to take into account the doctor's sharp gaze. She said, "We can't continue to hide the
truth."
Queenie was stunned, not knowing what she meant. "Luca, what do you mean by that?"
"We need a doctor here for me to help Leia but I only know Dr. Park," Luca said.
"Dr. Park..." Queenie knew Johann but she was reluctant.
That was because Johann was Luke's best friend. If he knew Leia was back, he would tell Luke.

Seeing that she hesitated, Luca persuaded her. "I can only enter if Dr. Park comes. Don't think about anything else
right now. We have to save her."
Queenie was persuaded by her. Indeed, saving Leia was the most important thing at that moment. She was not
willing to continue lying and hide Leia's whereabouts, which would only make her suffer.
"Okay, get in touch with him and have him deal with it." She agreed to Luca's proposal.
Luca immediately contacted Johann. She explained the matter clearly in a few sentences.
The ER doctor was dumbfounded. 'This conwoman knows the renowned Dr. Park in our hospital? It couldn't be?'
After a while, Johann arrived at the emergency room.
He had just finished an operation and came before taking off the surgical gown.
"Dr. Craw, what's going on?" he asked.
Luca said, "Leia is in the emergency room. I want to go in and treat her with dry needling but the doctor is afraid of
taking responsibility, so I want to ask you for help."
Johann glanced at the ER doctor next to him, nodded to greet him, and said, "Dr. Craw's skills are amazing. Let her
go in to see the patient's condition. Maybe she can help the patient."
"But she's not a doctor. It's against the rules to do this, Dr. Park." The ER doctor was stunned but still did not dare to
agree with their request.
Johann was speaking up on their behalf but if something happened, the unlucky person who would be responsible
was him.
"If something goes wrong with the patient because of Dr. Craw's treatment, I'll take the responsibility for it." Johann
had seen Luca's capabilities a few times prior, so he believed in her skills.
Seeing this, the ER doctor nodded and agreed.
Luca appreciated Johann's approval of her. She nodded and said, "Thank you."
