Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 103

When Luke walked in, Bianca looked up and saw him.

When he saw that she was making the bed, the man's eyes contracted. He threw the ointment on her bed without saying a word.

Bianca stopped making the bed as her eyes inadvertently shifted to the ointment stick on the blanket. The ointment package read ‘For treating mosquito bites on infants and young children’.

Old Master Crawford held up his reading glasses and saw him. He raised his head and asked his grandson, "How did you know Bea was bitten by mosquitoes?"

Luke said nothing.

"Apply the ointment quickly in case they’re poisonous…” When Old Man Rayne said that, he started telling everyone in the room. "When my poor granddaughter was a child, no one cared for her. She was bitten by a forest mosquito on her eyelid once. It swelled up horribly and got infected and inflamed. If her father hadn’t come back home to bring her to the city for injections to reduce inflammation, I’m afraid she would be blind now."

"It wasn’t that serious." Bianca interrupted because she did not want Grandpa to talk about her personal stories to outsiders.

Luke stood on the edge of his big bed with his back turned to the two old men and Bianca.

The bedroom was almost 70 square meters. His bed was placed in the innermost corner while Grandpa Rayne’s temporary bed was placed below the platform. Before that, a dark sofa was placed there.

The bed Bianca was making was a temporary foldable single bed.

She had no other choice. She had to take care of her grandpa, so she had to sleep in the foldable bed.

After making the folding bed, Bianca found that there was nothing but a thin and rough blanket.

Since it was the Crawfords’ home, she did not dare to simply move things around.

Even if it was going to be uncomfortable from the chaffing, that would have to do for one night. Perhaps Grandpa would be better tomorrow and they would be able to leave.

"Luke, why are you being rude? Go and get a proper blanket for Bianca from the closet, you hear me?" Old Master Crawford was furious.

Bianca looked up and said, "No, Grandpa Crawford. It’s alright.”

To be honest, that thin blanket was the one that fell off of his bed. It was the one she gave Luke to cover his nether regions…

After Bianca said it was fine, she saw Luke striding toward the cabinet with his long legs.

When she took the thin towel before, she had to step on a chair to reach for it. However, he did not even need to tiptoe before taking it out with one hand.

Soon, there was a new soft blanket placed on the foldable single bed.

"Make the blanket later. Put on the ointment first." Old Master Crawford looked at the two young people and suddenly felt that the two of them were being a little awkward.

Bianca did not want to face Luke awkwardly, so she took the ointment and went to the bathroom to apply it.

When she passed by Luke, she lowered her head and thanked him softly.

When Bianca entered the bathroom, both grandpas stared at the tall and long-legged Luke.

Old Master Crawford walked over anxiously with his hands behind his back. He looked up at his grandson and scolded, "What’s up with that cold face of yours? Is this the way to talk to your future wife? From the looks of your behavior, it might seem that you’re trying to be single for the rest of your life!”

"Old Crawford, leave Luke alone. Bea’s also at fault. That child just doesn’t know when to give up.”

Old Man Rayne could also tell that the problem did not lie solely on Luke.

From the beginning, his granddaughter had been treating Luke distantly as if he was a stranger.

"Go and help Bea put on the ointment. See how badly she’s been bitten.” Old Master Crawford lowered his voice, his head about to blow up from anger.

...

When the bathroom door was pushed open, Bianca was applying ointment on the back of her shoulder.
