Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1187

Luke could hear the weakness in her tired voice. His hand twisted the doorknob but found that she had already locked the door.

Bianca instantly became wary when she heard Luke twisting the doorknob. She was afraid that Luke might ask the butler to unlock the door.

"I'm really tired, Luke." Her voice became weaker as she clutched the bedsheets. If he was in such a hurry to talk to him, she thought that he wanted to ask her about Ivana.

Bianca was bitter when she was reminded about Ivana.

Because of Ivana, Abel had nearly crippled her, and Luke was going to confront her.

She bit her lower lip, swearing that she would take her revenge!

Luke drew his hand away from the doorknob when he heard her tired voice. "Alright, rest well then."

There was not a hint of warmth in his voice. In the darkness, Bianca's expressions slowly became vicious. 'It's all because of that Ivana…'

"Mm." Bianca did not hear Luke's footsteps and did not know if he had left. She could only reply weakly.

Luke returned to his study and saw Tommy sitting on the couch while reading a children's book.

"You're back, Daddy!" When Tommy saw him walking over, he put the book away, hopped off the couch, and waddled over. "Why did you come home so late?"

"I had some business to take care of." Luke could tell that his son had something to tell him.

"Is it about Ms. Luca?" Tommy asked. He thought for a while and added, "It's already been so long, Daddy. You should've taken care of it long ago. Otherwise, Ms. Luca would be really bothered."

"Don't worry. It's all done now." Luke patted Tommy's head. The little boy cared for Luca a lot, and someone might even mistake Luca for Tommy's mother.

"That's good to know. I can tell that Ms. Luca has been troubled by the scandal. Our video calls have been very short, and she barely spoke anything today before she had to hang up." Tommy was still not very satisfied with his father's performance.

While he listened to Tommy air his complaints, Luke went over and sat down on his executive chair. "You've been calling Ms. Luca?"

"Yes! I have a video call with Ms. Luca every day!" Tommy nodded and said, "I love Ms. Luca a lot. I don't think I can sleep well if I don't see her every day. Can I take the day off from school tomorrow? I want to go and visit her."

"You can't." Luke was not going to allow his son to neglect his studies, and his decision was not up for negotiation.

"Don't be like that, Daddy." Tommy walked toward him and tried to reason with him. "You've caused Ms. Luca a lot of trouble, and it's up to me to appease her. Don't you think so?"

Not even the least bit moved by his son's "sacrifice," Luke flicked Tommy's forehead with his finger and said, "Don't even think about it. Go to bed now."

"Daddy…" Tommy was still trying to get a word in.

"No." Luke stood up and took his hand.

"What do you want, Daddy?" Tommy shuddered. Was Luke going to spank him?

As far as he could remember, Luke had never laid a finger on him, but he knew that his naughty classmates were often spanked by their parents. Was it his turn to finally experience it?

"You should sleep now." Luke brought him to his bedroom, lifted him up, and placed him on the bed. "It's already past your bedtime."

"But what about Ms. Luca…" Tommy breathed a sigh of relief when he found out that he was not going to be spanked.

"I'll arrange for it," Luke said perfunctorily.

Convinced that his father was going to arrange a meet-up, Tommy clapped his hands happily. "Yay!"

After Tommy settled down and Luke tucked him in, Luke went out of the bedroom.

He looked at Tommy's bedroom door and shook his head. Tommy was not someone who would like another person so easily, but he somehow shared an affinity with Luca.
