Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1044

"You'd better leave, Wayne. The caretaker might wake up any time…" Leia begged. Her eyes were transfixed on the caretaker on the couch, wondering why she did not notice despite them talking at a normal volume.

"I knocked her out." Wayne turned on the bedside light, which dazzled Leia's eyes.

He sat down on the bed and looked at her pale face without any sign of care.

Leia grabbed the bed sheets tightly.

Wayne's gaze slowly shifted down from her face to her stomach.

Leia noticed that. She wanted to cover her stomach with the blanket.

Wayne's gaze turned vicious suddenly. "How dare you harm my child, Leia!"

Leia shuddered when facing his gaze. "It was an accident, Wayne. It's all Bianca's fault. Bianca made me lose the child."

Wayne reached out and touched her stomach.

Through the hospital gown, Leia could feel the icy coldness of Wayne's touch.

She shuddered again and explained, "It's really not my fault, Wayne. Bianca planned all this."

Wayne gripped her lower jaw. "Leia, do you think that I don't understand your character?"

Leia felt immense pain, and bruises began to appear on her pale face. "Wayne, I didn't…"

"Are you the one who hired someone to abduct Bianca Rayne?" Wayne asked, though he sounded confident of that statement. He might be a fugitive, but he had been keeping an eye on Leia.

Leia continued to deceive him. "If I was the one who did it, would I have sacrificed our child?"

Wayne narrowed his gaze and considered what she said.

When Leia saw that, she held Wayne's hand and begged him, "You'll have to avenge our child, Wayne."

Wayne looked at her and held her hand tightly. "How do you want me to avenge it?"

"I…" Leia did not know what to say.

What could she do? Kill Bianca? Bianca was already in that man's hands.

She could only hope that the man could deal with Wayne too.

Wayne pulled his hands away mercilessly. "You want me to kill Bianca, right? Then tell me, where is Bianca now?"

"I don't know." Leia lowered her head. She did not know where Bianca had been taken to, and she dared to tell him about Hera.

Wayne would kill her if he found out that she lost the child because she helped Hera!

Wayne suddenly chuckled, though it sounded incomparably scary to Leia.

"Even if you don't tell me, I'll be able to track that person down anyway. Someone like you wouldn't have been able to come into contact with a person who could abduct Bianca without leaving a trace. You must have gotten help from someone, right?"

He could see that Leia's body was shaking.

"Do you think you can hide the facts from me just by keeping your mouth shut? I heard that the child has congenital birth defects, right? Why would that be?" Wayne said.

He was angry that Leia had lost the child, but he was even angrier to find out that the child had defects.
