Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1080

Eler nodded and said shyly, "It was so scary just now. Fortunately, Mr. Shanks was there to help..."

Bianca's expression was calm when Eler mentioned Shanks again.

She noticed how shy Eler would get whenever she mentioned Shanks. It was exactly how a 19-year-old girl would act when she had a crush on someone.

Eler noticed that Bianca was silent. The thoughts in her mind were overwhelming her, so she blushed and asked, "Miss, you’re more knowledgeable than me. What kind of girls do you think Mr. Shanks likes?"

Bianca shook her head to indicate that she had no clue.

Abel had once mentioned that the reason why Shanks was helping him retaliate against Luke was that the love of his life died from the bombing of the Russian army.

From that, she could determine that Shanks was a loyal and affectionate man. No other woman could hope to have a happy ending falling in love with him.

"Sister!" Amur walked in, his expression instantly changing when he heard what Eler said.

Eler was taken aback as she did not expect that her secret would be overheard by someone else.

"Amur..." She was a little upset that Amur had heard it.

Their village was destroyed and their parents were killed. Amur hated everyone on the Island of Despair, including Shanks.

Amur's expression was sour, but he did not want to comment in front of Bianca. Hence, he said, "Sister, can I talk to you outside?"

Eler pursed her lips and looked reluctant.

She also hated the people from the Island of Despair, but Shanks was excluded. She fell for him because she believed that Shanks was a good person.

Bianca felt the tension and persuaded Eler. "Go. It’s best that both of you clear things up."

Eler reluctantly walked out to avoid disturbing Bianca. Amur closed the door.

Seeing that her involvement was no longer required, Bianca lay on the bed and closed her eyes.

"You like Shanks?!" Amur's eyes were red as molten anger rolled through him. He asked directly without thinking whether it would hurt Eler’s feelings.

"Mr. Shanks is very nice." Eler retorted with a blushed face, her lips trembling slightly. She did not understand why he was so disgusted.

Shanks was different from the others on the Island of Despair.

"Sister, you can't fall for the men here. They’re horrible people." Amur was overwhelmed by emotions and grabbed her shoulders.

Although he was thin and weak, he was still taller than her.

Eler looked up at her brother and said, "Amur, he’s different from others. Others hurt us, but Mr. Shanks would never. He treated you before… How can you forget the kindness he has shown you?"

"Forget? Sister, you’re the one who has forgotten!" Amur was irritable seeing that he could not persuade her to change her mind. He turned around and kicked the wall a few times. Months of training had made Amur stronger. He could see cracks in the bricks.

"Amur, what are you doing?!" Eler immediately grabbed his arm. If Abel saw Amur acting like this, he would be locked up.

Amur's face was contorted with rage. He turned to look at Eler and said, "Have you forgotten that our parents died because of the poisonous gas? Aside from Mr. Shanks, who else do you think has the capability to create that poisonous gas?"

When Abel led the mobsters to attack the village, he took away all the young laborers. He then ordered for the remaining middle-aged and elderly laborers to be locked in a house where poisonous gas was released.
