Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1209

Luca only finished dressing up when it was almost nighttime. It was not a particularly important party, so she wore a black long dress, tied her hair into a bun, and put on some light makeup.

She was taken aback when she saw herself in the mirror. Ever since her face changed, she had never groomed herself to this extent, and the face in the mirror was still unfamiliar to her.

Luca could not help but chuckle coldly when she looked at her delicate features.

Ever since her face changed, she stayed away from the mirror whenever she could and rarely dressed herself up. She would not have done so if she were not forced to go to the party.

Her phone began to ring. She glanced at the screen and saw that the call was from Luke.

Did he call her because he was afraid that she might bail on him?

Luca took a deep breath and answered the call. "Mr. Crawford."

"I'm downstairs," Luke said. Before she could react, Luke had already ended the call.

Luca was speechless as she listened to the busy tone from the phone. He was not going to let her run away…

He told her that he was downstairs, not even asking if she was ready yet…

Luca sighed. She put on her necklace, picked up her phone and handbag, and left the bedroom.

Amur was wiping the coffee table in the living room. He was stunned when he saw Luca.

"What's wrong, Amur?" Luca asked, wondering if she was underdressed for the party.

Amur blushed slightly. "You look very good in that dress," he said.

"Do you think it's too flashy?" Luca had chosen to wear a black dress because she wanted to keep a low profile.

"No," Amur said. It was the first time that he saw Luca put so much effort into her appearance.

He loved how she looked.

"That's good." Luca planned to stay in a corner for the entire party. It would be best if no one talked to her or interacted with her.

She hated such events, especially when she had to attend an event under a fake identity.

Amur put away the rag in his hands and stood up when he saw Luca putting on her high heels. While he wiped his damp hands on his shirt, he said, "Are you going to the party now? Shall I send you there?"

"It's fine." Luca paused before continuing, "Mr. Crawford's driver is waiting downstairs."

Amur nodded pensively. Before Luca left, he said, "Abel is hosting the party tonight. You should be careful."

"Mm. Don't worry." Luca nodded and opened the door.

She went downstairs and saw Luke's car parking at the roadside.

Her apartment was located in a middle-class neighborhood, and no one in the area could have afforded a car of that price. A car like that also rarely appeared in that area.

The area was quite crowded at the moment, and the car caught a lot of attention from the pedestrians.

Luca sighed. She went over and tapped on his window.

Luke's gaze had been transfixed on Luca ever since she stepped out of the apartment. He had never looked away.

He thought that she was dressed appropriately for the business-style party. She did not underdress, but at the same time, she was not too flashy.

The driver stepped out of the car and opened the back seat door for her. "Good evening, Ms. Craw."

That was when Luca knew that Luke was not there to make sure that she did not run away, but he genuinely wanted to pick her up.
