Sue became anxious when she heard that Luca had signs of concussion. She said, "The symptoms might be gone, but you can't be too careless. No, you need to rest more. Where are you staying now? I'll come to visit and bring you some supplements."
Luca hurriedly said, "Don't worry about it. It's nothing too serious. I'll be back to normal once the wound on my forehead heals. You don't have to waste money on me. Right, Sue, I need to ask you a favor."
"What is it?" Sue asked.
"There's a cordon around my apartment, and the police have detained all my identification documents. I don't have a single penny with me now, so, um… can you lend me some money?" Luca said.
"Money? How much? I'll transfer it to you now," Sue replied without any hesitation.
Luca hurriedly explained, "I need cash. I don't have my debit card with me, so I can't take out any money from my account. How about this, I can transfer money to you through my banking app. Can you withdraw the cash for me?"
"How much cash do you need?" Sue said, still confused.
Mobile payments were becoming more and more common. She did not understand why Luca would rather bring cash with her.
"I need twenty thousand dollars. I'll transfer it to you. Can you help me with that?" Luca said. She need not have done that if she had her debit card with her.
"I can help you, but why do you need so much money in cash?" Sue asked. Twenty thousand dollars was a large sum, and people would not usually walk around with that much money.
"I need it for an emergency. It's quite urgent. I'll transfer the amount to you now, and you can withdraw it at the bank…" Luca would rather not trouble Sue to go to the bank.
"Don't worry about it. I happen to have some cash with me, and I can hand it to you now. Where are you staying?" Sue thought that she could use the chance to pay her a visit and give her some supplements.
"I don't have my ID with me, so I'm staying at Mr. Crawford's apartment near Century International. I don't know the block and unit number, so I'll find that out and get back to you," Luca said. She wanted to give the money to the security guard's family.
After all, the security guard died because of her, and she felt immensely guilty about causing the family to lose their sole breadwinner.
Twenty thousand dollars was not a lot for a white-collar worker like her, but it was a large sum for the security guard's family.
"The apartment near Century International? Don't worry about it. I know where it is. I'll leave now, and I should be there in thirty minutes." Sue knew which apartment unit it was.
She was quite surprised that Luke would let Luca stay in that apartment. Luke owned many apartment properties in A City, but that particular one was his private space. He usually did not bring anyone there.
"Alright." Luca did not stop her from coming over immediately. After all, she wanted the money as soon as possible so that she could give it to the security guard's family.
Half an hour later, Sue and Nina appeared at the apartment at the same time.
"This is the place, right?" Nina asked as she looked at the address plate. She did not know that Luca was injured, and she would not know about it if Sue had not told her.
"Yes, it is," Sue said confidently. She was involved in the interior design of the apartment, so she was very sure about it.
However, Luca knew that Nina would benefit greatly if she joined the international conference and exhibition. That was why she wanted to go with Nina.
"Have you been suffering from insomnia too?" Nina could see that Luca was in good spirits, unlike her.
"It's not like I can't sleep every night, but my sleep quality can be horrible sometimes. I'd like to see if I can find a solution," Luca said and twirled around. "See, I'm fine."
Nina looked at her, still feeling worried.
"Also, I'd like to go somewhere after we visit the exhibition. Can you drive me there?" Luca asked.
"Alright then." Nina agreed after she saw that Luca insisted on going. Luca smiled.
Sue took out a stack of twenty thousand dollars from her handbag and handed it to Luca. "Does that place have something to do with this money?"
"You guessed it," Luca said with a smile. She did not verify the amount because she trusted Sue.
"I'm also guessing that you want to visit the security guard's family tomorrow," Sue said. "You shouldn't blame yourself for that. It has nothing to do with you."
"The police's official guess is that the security guard entered my apartment unit because he suspected that there was a break-in, which caused him to suffer that unfortunate fate. In any case, he died in my apartment, and I'd like to help them however I can," Luca said.
