Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1048

"You’re back." A man was sitting right in the middle of the room with his back facing the entrance and against the light.

Abel looked at the medical equipment in the room and walked to that man. He sat down. "Yeah, I'm back."

"Did you succeed in taking revenge?" The man glanced at Abel and lowered his head, continuing to read his medical book.

"I'd say it's a success." Abel chuckled and picked up a glass filled with red wine, swaying it. When he saw it at a distance earlier, he thought it was a glass of red wine. However, now that he had gotten a better look, he realized there was a finger inside the red wine.

His face went pale and he placed the glass of wine down while cursing. He called the man a maniac for doing such a thing. ‘Why the f*ck is he using wine to preserve his samples?’

"What do you mean by that?" asked the man with a spooky voice. He talked softly as though he did not possess any ill intention.

"I didn't harm Luke Crawford but I've brought his woman to the island. Shanks, I want to change this woman into a powerful weapon that can kill Luke." Abel revealed his plan.

The man with the name Shanks gently curled his lips and closed his medical book. "Your plan is a waste of time. You might as well kill Luke and give me his heart. I'll make it into a sample."

"That would be too easy for him!" Abel got up and his eyes glinted angrily. No one could change his mind about the plan he was determined to carry out. "I want Luke to be in utter despair and die from suffering and shock."

Shanks no longer said a word and started frowning.

Abel noticed that he was not agreeing to his plan but without Shanks, this plan would not be successful.

Shanks was a splendid doctor on the Island of Despair. He excelled in both Western and traditional medicine. He was able to create all sorts of incredible medicines. On any usual days, patients on the Island of Despair were unable to seek consultation from him, except for Robert who could give him orders.

Abel sat back down and said, "Shanks, instant suffering won't do much. The woman you loved most is dead, and it's because of Luke. Aren't you still in pain at this moment? You should let him experience the same thing as well. No, you should make him experience it a hundred times more!"

Shanks looked at Abel with an expressionless face. He had always thought of seeking revenge against Luke but never had the chance to do so.

Initially, he thought that Abel would help him grant his wish yet the latter ended up kidnapping a woman back.

'Make Luke experience a hundred times of the suffering I went through?' Shanks got up. "I’d like to meet that woman."

Abel knew that Shanks was willing to take part in his plan now and revealed a satisfactory smile on his face. "Follow me."

Both of them, one in the front while the other trailed behind, came to the room where Bianca was locked up. "This is Luke's wife."

Shanks looked at the woman on the bed coldly. Just by looking at her, he knew that Bianca was having a fever.

"She's having a very high fever," he said. He did not have the slightest bit of sympathy for women who appeared to have poor hygiene.

"That's why I need your help." Abel revealed his plan. "This woman can't afford to die right now. Once Luke is dead, I'll then personally finish her and their kids off."

Shanks and Abel had both lost the women they loved. 'Hence, Bianca must die once the plan succeeds.'

"She’s really dirty," said Shanks disdainfully. "You didn’t even help clean her up."

"No need for that." Abel stood at the side of the bed and placed both his hands into his pockets. He glanced at Shanks who put on gloves before walking to the side of the bed. He took her pulse.

In no time, Shanks frowned and retrieved his hand.

"What's wrong?" Abel asked.

Shanks looked at Bianca's reddish face that was caused by the high fever and said, "She's pregnant."

"She's pregnant?' Abel looked at the woman on the bed in disbelief.

"Don't ever doubt my skills in taking a patient’s pulse,” Shanks said with much dissatisfaction after hearing Abel's tone of disbelief. Back when he was young, to improve his medical skills, he went abroad to learn from a senior. Hence, he need not conduct all sorts of complicated procedures and was able to tell that Bianca was pregnant with just a pulse reading.

"I'm not doubting you," Abel explained and then touched his chin while glancing at Bianca.
