Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1016

"You…" Allison's face changed several shades of red because of her anger. She glared at her son, and the signs of old age appeared on her face.

Deep wrinkles appeared on her face, and she seemed to have aged several decades instantly.

That shocked Bianca. It was the second time she had seen Allison's skin change so drastically, but Allison seemed oblivious to it.

Luke was Allison's son, but ever since he reunited with Bianca, he did not ensure that her whims were satisfied, and sometimes he had even sided with Bianca to bully her.

Allison felt more and more like an outsider and a burden, and her hatred toward Bianca grew.

She thought that it was the wrong decision to leave her with Kevin Rayne. She should have tossed the baby Bianca into the sea! That would have saved her a lot of trouble in the future.

The atmosphere in the office was tense. Neither the mother nor the son was willing to back down.

However, Luke was a more composed person than Allison, and Allison found herself increasingly flustered.

He did not close the door after he entered the office, and Sue had been pacing outside to see what was going on inside. They said that one should not air their dirty laundry in public, but everyone in the company had already found out that Luke Crawford was not on good terms with his mother.

Bianca was getting worried that the situation might continue to escalate. She held Luke's hand gently and tried to defuse the situation. "Did you come here for something, Luke?"

She tried to change the topic to stop the fight from continuing.

Luke looked away from Allison and handed Bianca an envelope.

That was when Bianca noticed that Luke had been holding an envelope all this while. She opened it and saw the invitation letter to the T Corporation annual shareholders' meeting.

Allison could tell that it was an invitation letter too.

He could have given it to Bianca while they were at home, but he had deliberately come over to Bianca's office to deliver it. Did he not have a lot of work? What was the meaning of this?

Allison became angrier when she thought of that. Not caring that people were gossiping outside, she continued to reprimand Luke, "You've been bewitched by that woman, Luke. You disappoint me!"

Then, she stormed out of the office.

Her high heels landed heavily on the floor as though she wanted to leave holes.

Sue was shocked by Allison's gloomy demeanor. It was scary to see that the noble woman seemed to age by decades in an instant.

After Allison left, Bianca sighed. "Luke…"

She did not say what she wanted to say. After all, the problem was between the mother and son, and she could offer no solution.

Luke gently caressed her cheeks and closed the door.

"I'm here because I miss you," he said. Jason had delivered the invitation letters ready to be sent out to Luke's office earlier.

When Luke saw the name "Bianca Rayne," he instantly put aside his work on hand and drove over just to see her.

Bianca was moved. She hugged him tightly. "I'm so glad that you're here, Luke."

Luke would always appear whenever she was in trouble. It was the same this time.

Luke carefully inspected Bianca's face for any signs of injury. "Did she hurt you?" He asked.

"No." Bianca shook her head. He had arrived just when Allison wanted to slap her.

"Why do you think your mother is so against Gordan investigating the incident?" She asked.

Luke's gaze turned gloomy. He already had his doubts, and those doubts intensified when he saw his mother acting so strangely.
