Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1046

Seeing that he had not rested for days, Old Master Crawford was worried for his grandson. He put a sleeper sofa in Luke's bedroom.

Luke turned on the light, sat up, kept the bed, and walked out of the study.

He opened Tommy's bedroom door. There was a small orange night light next to the bed.

Ever since Bianca was abducted, the usually cheerful and playful boy had fallen silent and easily cried. He used to love to watch cartoons and eat snacks, but those could no longer pique his interest.

He would even wake up from his nightmares and look for Bianca.

Johann suggested that he put a nightlight next to Tommy's bed to soothe his emotions. After doing so, Tommy rarely woke up in the middle of the night.

Luke gently stepped inside and saw that Tommy had kicked the blanket onto the floor. He pressed his lips together and covered him again with the blanket. Bianca used to be the one to do that.

Bianca would wake up once or twice in the middle of the night to check on their children.

Tommy rolled over and mumbled in his sleep, "Mommy…"

Luke's body froze. He looked at his son.

Tommy did not wake up. His eyes were still closed. He was probably dreaming of Bianca.

"I miss you, Mommy," Tommy mumbled again. His voice shook as though he was going to cry.

Luke sighed. Remembering what Bianca used to do, he sat down on the bed next to Tommy and gently patted his back.

As expected, Tommy stopped sleep-talking and relaxed his furrowed brows.

Luke stared intently at Tommy's face. His usually chubby face had slimmed down a little.

If Bianca returned and saw Tommy like that, she would blame him for not taking good care of the children.

Luke continued to comfort Tommy for the next ten minutes. After that, he looked at Tommy's sleeping face once more, sighed, and left the room. He checked on Lanie and Rainie to make sure that they did not kick the blanket away, then went to the study.

Sitting on the chair, he looked at the computer screen. In the past few days, he had been trying to search for Bianca as well as handling company matters.

He thought for a while and eventually decided to call Percy.

At three o'clock in the morning, Percy was already sleeping. He opened his eyes when the phone rang, paused for a while, and picked up his phone.

Seeing that the call was from Luke, he answered it, expecting good news. "Have you found your wife?" He asked.

"No." Luke would inadvertently clench his fists whenever anyone mentioned Bianca. He would not forgive her abductors.

"Are you crazy? Why do you have to call me in the middle of the night? To think that I was having a nice dream," Percy cursed. He glanced next to him, and Nina was not there.

"I want to go to the Island of Despair," Luke told him his decision.

"The Island of Despair? Didn't the Russian government take over that place? It's probably a barren island by now." Percy got out of the bed and walked out of the bedroom. As expected, he saw Nina sitting on the couch in the living room. She was hugging her legs, and she seemed lonely.
