Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1088

Eler seemed to be in a daze. It took her a while to come to her senses after hearing Bianca's voice. She nodded and said, "I've brought you the medicine, Miss."

Bianca knew that she was behaving like that because she had met Shanks. "Bring it to me," she said.

To ensure that the baby was safe, she tried not to get out of bed.

Eler handed her the medicine.

Bianca opened it and downed it without complaint. To her, the most important thing now was keeping the baby safe.

By now, she had some affection for the baby.

Eler brought Bianca a glass of water after Bianca finished the medicine. "Please wash your mouth."

"Thanks," Bianca said. She finished the water and handed the glass back to Eler.

"Miss…" Eler wanted to say something.

"Is it about Shanks?" Bianca could instantly tell what she wanted to say.

"Mm. I think that I'm useless." Eler was dejected.

Bianca sighed. "Useless" was not the correct term to describe someone in love, but she had to admit that Eler fell in love with the wrong person.

"Come and read with me, Eler." Bianca did not comfort Eler, but instead, she pointed at the books next to the bed. Amur had helped her obtain those books; most of them were in Russian, and she had to read them slowly with the help of a dictionary.

Eler thought that Bianca would offer her some words of comfort, but Bianca had asked her to read instead. She could see that Bianca was focused on her book, so she did not want to disturb her with relationship matters.

Everyone had something that troubled them, and no one was obligated to listen to other people's troubles. Eler sat down beside Bianca and started reading too.

…

In A City, winter came and left. Spring passed, and soon, it was summer.

Crisp green buds were thriving on the branches that extended into the balcony. Luke was standing there. He seemed dejected like an old man. Nothing seemed to cheer him up.

Bianca had been missing for nine months. Nothing eventful happened in that time, nor did he manage to find her.

She seemed to have disappeared without leaving a trace behind. The police had given up on the search, and he stopped receiving any replies to his announcements.

Even so, Luke did not give up on the search.

He reached out and snapped the twig. "Where are you, Bea?" He mumbled softly.

His phone rang. Luke crushed the twig in his hand and tossed it on the floor, then answered the call. "Speak."

"Boss, our men seem to have found Madam…" Jason sounded agitated over the call. He dared not speak confidently in case the person was not Bianca and Luke blamed him for it.

Luke's gaze turned profound. He paused there for a moment. He had heard the same line many times. Despite every search ending in disappointment, he never gave up hope every time he heard that.

"Boss?" Jason called out.

"Where is it?" Luke's voice was unexpectedly hoarse.

"It's in a village in D City. Someone there said that many features of that person matched. Should we go over there, Boss?" Jason asked.

"We leave now." Luke ended the call and drove toward his private airstrip.

He was always so nervous whenever he went to search for Bianca.

Jason had already arranged for the flight. The airplane was waiting for Luke.

Luke immediately boarded the plane with Jason following behind. He was tapping on his phone screen to make arrangements in D City.
