Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1169

Jack finished reading the letter and looked at his wife. He was lost in his thoughts.

"Could this be from the woman we met today?" Queenie asked. Ivana was the only person who popped into her mind.

"Could be." Jack frowned as he stared at the package.

She managed to list all of Queenie’s symptoms just from checking her pulse. However, she did not say anything about it being curable earlier. Then, they were sent some herbs. Who else would it be if not her?

"Jack and Queenie, who are you talking about?" Luke looked at the two. Although Bianca did not recognize them, he still cared about his in-laws.

Jack told Luke what had happened earlier.

After Luke heard what Jack said, he picked up one of the packets and said, "Jack and Queenie, don't take this medicine for now. I’ll bring it to Johann to test it tomorrow."

Queenie hesitated. Her gut feeling told her that Ivana was a good person, and she felt an inexplicable surge of warmth when they first met.

Jack was concerned about Queenie's health. He nodded and said, "Okay, it's best if we can get Dr. Park to run a test on it. It’s not worth taking the risk since we don’t know what this is."

When Queenie heard her husband agree with Luke, she nodded in agreement as well.

After dinner, Luke took the medicine packet and left with the kids.

Queenie looked at the remaining medicine packets and picked up the letter again. The handwriting on it was beautiful. She thought of Ivana’s young and charming face. The corners of her mouth raised into a smile.

"What are you thinking about?" Jack made some tea and put a cup in front of her.

Queenie put down the letter, held up the cup to warm her hands, and said, "I don’t think that the girl has ill intentions."

Jack kept silent for a few seconds. They were soulmates, so of course, he knew her thoughts. "The source of the herbs is unknown. It's better to have them checked before you decide whether to take them or not."

"That's true." Queenie took a sip of hot tea, then picked up the wrapped box to look for a phone number.

"What are you looking for?" Jack asked.

"I'm looking for the girl's phone number, it's just..." Queenie looked at the censored delivery details and reluctantly put the box aside.

"I can get someone to find out," Jack said. Delivery companies would have some sort of records. Moreover, the parcel was sent from the same city. It would not be too much trouble to investigate it. As soon as he mentioned it to someone, they would get everything done.

"No." Queenie shook her head and let out a sigh. "I’m sure she doesn't want to be harassed by us. If she wanted us to contact her, she would’ve mentioned something in the letter."

"That's fair." Jack nodded. When he raised his head, he saw their family photo hanging on the wall. He shook his head. The people in the picture were still around but the circumstances had changed.

After a while, the caretaker of Norman Residence walked over with a tablet and handed it to them. "Master, Madam, you should read tonight's news."

Jack took the tablet and glanced at it. His brows were knitted tightly together as he said, "Nonsense, a bunch of nonsense!"

"What's wrong? Why are you so angry?" When Queenie saw how angry he was, she took the tablet from his hands. The news stated that Luke was secretly dating a researcher from Watson Biopharmaceuticals.

The couple knew about it as Luke had explained to them what was really going on before the news broke.

They trusted Luke, but they did not expect that the media would announce the identity of the woman. In the report, it was mentioned that Luke was using his company as an excuse to see his lover.

"Nonsense!" Jack said angrily. They did not believe that Luke was that kind of person.

The caretaker chimed in, "The reporters nowadays are disgusting and full of lies! Madam, what are we going to do now?"
