Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1138

Nina’s gaze shifted away from her kids and toward Luca, but she found that she had already left.

As Nina watched her walk away, she found Luca familiar.

After Luca left the children's clothing area, she slowly calmed down and contained the pain she felt. She was overjoyed to meet Nina. She wanted to hold her hand and catch up to ask about how she had been in the past few years.

However, she could not do that.

Luca hated feeling powerless.

She walked around the mall and realized that she was not in the mood to shop, so she walked toward the exit.

There was an event happening on the first floor of the mall. Luca looked up and saw the logo of Brilliant Architectural Design LLC. She was stunned and brought her steps to a stop.

She could not hear anything that the host of the event was saying. She just stood there and stared at the logo of Brilliant Architectural Design LLC with mixed feelings.

This logo was designed by her. Three years later, the company was still around and the logo remained.

Luca wondered if Nina and Sue were the ones trying to keep the company up and running.

Suddenly, Luke's name was mentioned, and Luca snapped out of her daze. She looked at the man who was walking onto the stage.

Luke was wearing a tailored suit and walking to the center of the stage with high spirits. He then took the microphone handed by the host.

The noise around him stopped when he arrived at the center of the stage.

Luke began to introduce Brilliant Architectural Design LLC. When he mentioned that the company was founded by the love of his life, she could not help but chuckle. Luke was the center of attention everywhere he went.

Even though the lighting in the shopping mall was not the best, his appearance seemed to gather everyone’s attention. No matter where he went, he would always stand out.

Luca looked at the distance between herself and Luke—not only the distance from the stage to where she was but also the distance that could not easily be spoken of.

She watched as Luke finished his speech and turned around to leave.

Before she could leave the area, Jason called out to Luca. "Ms. Ivana?"

Luca stopped. She wanted to leave but if she did, it would make things awkward. Hence, she looked back at him and said with a smile, "Mr. Doyle."

"You’re here..." Jason glanced at her, then turned to look at Luke on the stage. "Are you here to shop?"

Luca smiled and said, "Yes, I didn't expect to bump into Mr. Crawford for an event here."

"This is fate." Jason smiled. "Ms. Ivana, there’ll be a reception in the company later. Would you like to join us?"

Luca turned him down without a second thought. "No, I'm not a part of Brilliant Architectural Design LLC and I think it's best if I sit out of it."

"Don’t be silly, you’re also a part of T Corporation. I believe the boss would be more than happy to see you there." Jason extended the invitation once again.

Luca shook her head and looked somewhere far away. She saw Sue standing there, sneaking looks in their direction. Hence, she said, "I have something to attend to, so I’ll make a move first."

When Jason heard her reply, he knew that it was pointless to ask her to stay again. He smiled and watched her leave.

Luke, who was standing on the stage, watched the interaction. His eyes darkened. ‘When did Jason get close to Luca?’

After Luca left, Jason returned to Sue with the intention to help her distribute the leaflets and gifts from Brilliant Architectural Design LLC.

As soon as he picked up the leaflets, Sue snatched them and said, "I don't need your help."

Jason was confused about her angry tone. ‘She’s angry?’
