Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle -
Chapter 1663 Separated For Three Years
Wanda blinked her eyes. She refused to believe what Luca said. Could taking some herbal medicine help recover Old Man Rayne's health.
This was way too iffy for her...
She asked, “Will my dad be physically stronger after taking the herbal medicine? But we've visited several doctors throughout the years, and we even went to see the specialists in Japan. All of them told us that he’s suffering from a chronic illness, and there's no cure for this. He can only take some medicine to alleviate the symptoms. It can't be healed.”
“Indeed, his illness can't be healed, but my prescription will make Old Man Rayne feel much better,” replied Luca. She did not blame Wanda for doubting her.
The medical knowledge that Shanks taught her was abundant, and most of it could not be found or learned in the medical schools out there.
Some of the prescriptions could not be obtained from the market today, so many had no idea how good the effects were.
Moreover, many people swindled money from patients in the name of naturopathy these days. “Does such an effective prescription really exist? Previously, I brought him to a naturopathic doctor but the prescription he gave didn't work either.” Wanda was still questioning Luca. Every medicine had its side effects. She hoped that Old Man Rayne could take fewer medicines if possible.
"Aunt, just believe in Luca,” Luke said. She was someone they could trust, and she had no reason to harm her grandfather.
Wanda did not say anything, and Luca said determinedly, “Please believe in me. You'll start to see the effects after taking two packets of the concoction according to the prescription. The effects will be better if he continues taking it. The illness can't be cured but Old Man Rayne will feel much better. At least, he'll be able to sleep well at night. Besides, the medicine doesn’t have many side effects.”
Old Man Rayne listened to Luca's confident tone and said, “Wanda, let's give it a try. Luke wouldn't have brought her here if she wasn't capable enough.”
Wanda nodded. She was still a little concerned about the oral medication. Also, she was worried that the prescription would not be good enough and might harm Old Man Rayne.
However, she was not worried about the medicine for external application. Hence, she turned the page and read the prescription carefully.
She had been studying naturopathic medicine all these years because of Old Man Rayne's illness. When she was reading the ingredients Luca wrote on the paper, she realized that the ingredients used were not extraordinary ones
Besides, she had seen some of the ingredients on other prescriptions before, but the quantity used was different.
Would this work?
Wanda was still doubting it.
Old Man Rayne interrupted her, saying, “Wanda, please bring the chess set here. I'm going to play chess with Luke. Also, ask the maid to prepare more food for lunch today. They'll be staying for lunch.”
"Okay, Dad.” Wanda went to get his chess set after that.
Luca stood beside them and watched them play a game of chess. She realized Luke was deliberately goofing around to make her grandfather happy, but it was not obvious as Old Man Rayne did not notice it.
“Luke, I suppose you've been busy with work and you don't have the time to play chess. Your skills aren't as good as before,” Old Man Rayne smiled and said.
Luke replied humbly, "Grandpa, it's because you've improved a lot."
Old Man Rayne nodded and said proudly, “Of course. I always ask the maid to bring me out for a walk around the neighborhood on days I feel better. I meet many elders there, and they love to play chess too. I would play two games with them if I'm allowed to, and guess what?”
Luke continued, “They can’t win against you.”
"Yes, their skills aren't that great. Come on, let's move on to the next round,” Old Man Rayne said. Luca looked at Old Man Rayne and felt a lump in her throat. She turned away and blinked her eyes. Then, she said, "Mr. Crawford, can I take a look around? The garden of this villa looks exquisite.” "Yes, go ahead,” replied Luke. He knew Luca was looking for a place to release her emotions, so he did not stop her.
Luca left the bedroom after that.
She was only able to slowly calm down when she no longer saw Old Man Rayne.
It had been three years. She had been separated from her family, loved ones, and her children for three years.
However, time did not let all these feelings fade away. Instead, when she saw them in person, she could not help but get emotional. The emotions fluctuated strongly in her.
Luca stood in the garden in the front yard. Her heart was aching. She pressed on her chest, taking one deep breath after another to try and soothe her emotions.
