Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

Luke's brows furrowed even tighter. He knew that the maid was not trying to shirk responsibility. It was highly likely that the old
man himself had asked her to do this.
Old Man Rayne had always been the kind of person who avoided troubling others. If it were not for his old age and inability to
take care of himself, he would never have agreed to have a caretaker look after him.
The curtain to the emergency room was pulled open.
"Are the family members here?" asked the doctor.
Yes," replied Luke, no longer scolding the maid. Old Man Rayne's condition mattered the most now.
The doctor glanced at Luke and then checked the patient's examination results. Then, he explained, "We've already sent the
patient for examination. The initial diagnosis states that it could be cerebral vasospasm. We've given the patient medication, but
we'll need a neurosurgeon's consultation for a specific diagnosis and further treatment."
"Does he need surgery?" Luca asked immediately.
The doctor clarified, "That depends on the diagnosis of the attending physician. I'll get the patient admitted to the hospital now.
You may go to the counter to complete the admission procedures."
"Ask Dr. Park to take a look at Old Man Rayne," said Luca as she turned to Luke. Johann was an expert in cerebrovascular
diseases.
Luca could not trust anyone else to treat Old Man Rayne. She only believed in Johann's abilities.
The emergency doctor was slightly surprised and asked, "You know Dr. Park?"
According to hospital regulations, the attending physician for an admitted patient was generally assigned based on duty
schedules unless the patient or family members had specific requests.
Doctors like Johann were almost universally known to every patient or their family members who came to the general hospital.
However, Johann would not accept every patient since he was too busy, unless it was an especially challenging case or if he had
a close relationship with the patient...
The emergency doctor did not know which category these family members belonged to.

Luke initially planned for this. He had yet to notify Johann in advance. He wanted to wait until they had the test results.
However, they needed to inform Johann to take over the patient's care now. Luke asked the doctor on duty, "Is there an available
ward on the VIP floor?"
"I'll have the nurse check for you." The emergency doctor returned to the emergency room. Hospital room arrangements were
not within his scope of work.
Luke dialed Johann's number while waiting for them to check for the ward's availability.
Johann had just laid down on his bed at that time. When his phone rang, he did not hesitate to answer, "It's late. What's the
matter?"
"Come to the hospital. Bianca's grandfather is sick. The initial diagnosis states that it's a cerebral vasospasm." Luke's serious
voice came from the other end of the line.
Johann immediately sat up. Cerebral vasospasm was no trivial matter. "Ask the emergency doctor to send me the test results.
I'm on my way to the hospital now."
"Okay," replied Luke. As he watched the emergency doctor who came walking out again, he asked, "Is there a ward available?"
"Yes. Are you sure you want to have the patient admitted to the VIP floor?" The nurse confirmed with the VIP floor's nurse that
there was an empty ward, so the doctor came out to confirm with them.
Every department in their hospital had VIP wards, but there was an even better level of VIP wards on the top floor equipped with
all the necessary emergency equipment and a patient transport elevator, making them more expensive than regular VIP wards.
"Yes. Please send the patient's test results to Dr. Park," said Luke.
The emergency doctor nodded. "I'll give Dr. Park the patient's identification number. He'll be able to access it through the
hospital's system."
As the doctor said that, the nurses pushed Old Man Rayne out of the emergency room. "Now, let's take the patient upstairs while
the family goes to the admission counter."
After that, the nurses pushed the bed away.
Luca could not be bothered about Luke and followed behind the doctor and nurses.

Luke asked the caretaker who was standing on the spot with a blank expression on her face, "Did you bring Old Man Rayne's
identification?"
"Yes, I did." The maid nodded. She took out Old Man Rayne's ID and medical insurance card from her bag.
Luke pulled out his credit card from his wallet and handed it to the maid. Then, he said, "Go to the counter to handle his
admission procedures. Then come to the ward."
"Okay." The maid took the card from him and secretly heaved a sigh at how unlucky she was. It was her turn to watch over Old
Man Rayne today. She did not expect something like this to happen.
She could have avoided Luke's scolding if another maid had been on duty.
After Luke gave his instructions, he hurried away and caught up with Luca's steps. They took the patient transport elevator and
quickly arrived at the hospital's VIP floor.
After Old Man Rayne was sent to the ward, the doctors and nurses were busy doing their job and finally settled him down.
Luca looked at Old Man Rayne, who was lying unconscious on the hospital bed. She felt anxious while waiting for Johann to
arrive.
Luke noticed how worried she was and raised his hand, gently holding hers.
Her hand was ice-cold.
Luke frowned and tightened his grip.
Luca was taken aback for a moment, recalling everything that had happened. Luke had always been there by her side.
Luke had always stayed by her side quietly, giving her enough courage to face every unexpected situation.
Previously, when she was trapped on the Island of Despair and giving birth to Nyla, she had complained about why Luke had not
come to save her.
Now, all those past moments were like wisps of smoke. She only remembered that the person who was there for her in her most
helpless moments was Luke.

"Don't worry," Luke comforted her in a low voice.
"Okay," Luca murmured softly, not dwelling on why he suddenly felt the need to console her.
After a while, Johann called.
The call was for Luke, and he answered it. After he answered the call, he ignored the hospital's request to keep quiet and put it
on speaker so that Luca could also hear what Johann was saying on the other end of the line.
"I've already reviewed the case. Old Man Rayne's cerebral vasospasm is quite severe. It needs immediate attention. There might
be a sequela if it's prolonged. We need to perform surgery on him. Do you agree to do so?" asked Johann. Even though Old
Man Rayne was Luca's grandfather, her identity was currently special, and since Wanda was also hospitalized, Luke would be
the one to make the decision.
"I agree," Luke did not hesitate. Like Luca, he had faith in Johann's diagnosis and abilities.
"Okay. I'll have the nurse arrange the operating room and take care of other matters. I'll be at the hospital soon. Wait for me
there. If Old Man Rayne's daughter can't sign the consent form, it'll have to be you," said Johann. There were several documents
that needed to be signed by the patient's family member if he were to perform surgery on him.
It was especially since the old man was unconscious and unable to make decisions himself at the moment.
Whether or not to proceed with the surgery was not solely the old man's decision.
"Okay. Don't tell Aunt Wanda about this. I'll make the decision,” replied Luke without seeking Luca's opinion on this matter.
He knew that even if he discussed it with Luca, she would not want to disturb Wanda.
After all, Wanda was still in the process of recovery. If she found out that Old Man Rayne had been hospitalized and needed
surgery, it would affect her mood and delay her recovery process.
This matter had to be kept hidden.
Luca nodded. She agreed with what Luke said. They should not bother Wanda.
