Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1214

Luke understood what she meant. He put the water bottle away, gritted his teeth, and picked her up in a bridal carry. "Bear with it just a little longer."

Luca could feel the world spin around her. When she was picked up from the bed, she instinctively grabbed Luke's shirt sleeve.

Luke had already taken off his coat when he entered the room earlier. Through the thin material of his shirt, he could feel the boiling-hot temperature of her hand.

Luke grunted and stifled his urges. He quickly walked into the bathroom and gently placed her into the bathtub.

When Luca loosened her grip on him, Luke felt that he had lost a part of him.

Luke saw that Luca's eyes were tightly shut, and her brows were tightly furrowed in agony. Without hesitation, he turned on the shower.

The warm water splashed on Luca's body. Soon, her dress was soaked through and clung to her skin, revealing her curvaceous body.

Luke gawked at her. He did not realize that passion was flaring in his eyes.

The water level rose gradually. Soon, Luca's body was immersed in water.

"Do you feel better?" Luke asked. If the water did not have any effect, he would bring her to the hospital.

Luca did not respond. Her brows were still tightly furrowed.

Luke took two steps back when he saw the hem of Luca's dress floating in the water. His gaze remained on her body.

It took Luca a while before she felt her body cool down, but she dared not stand up yet. The dress would cling tightly to her body and expose her figure.

Another reason was that she was familiar with the effects of the drug.

Shanks was the one who had invented the drug, and she knew its components very well. Shanks had told her about the ingredients and challenged her to make an antidote for it. She had taken the drug together with the antidote.

According to Shanks, any researcher worth their salt ought to take the drugs they invented.

That was why she knew that there were two ways of curing the effects of the drug. The first was to make out with someone, and the second was the antidote.

Soaking herself in water could only temporarily suppress the effects of the drug. If she stepped out of the bathtub, she would suffer from the effects again in less than a minute.

Luca looked at Luke. She could only rely on him.

"Mr. Crawford, can you do me a favor?" She hugged herself tightly to show that she was helpless.

"Speak it," Luke said.

"Can you bring me my handbag?" Luca pleaded.

Luke thought that the request was quite weird, but he did so anyway. He went out of the bathroom, took Luca's handbag on the couch, and returned to the bathroom.

"Get me a bottle of water too," Luca said after taking the handbag from Luke.

Luke went out of the bathroom again, took the bottle of water that Luca was drinking from earlier, and went back inside.

Luca had already found the antidote in her handbag. She poured a pill from the bottle into her palm.

Luke handed the bottle of water over and watched her swallow the pill with a gulp of water. "What's that?" He asked.

"It's a pill that can cure my condition," Luca said in between deep breaths.

Luke saw Luca's fair skin undulate under the ripples, but he did not feel any emotions. "How do you know that you'll be drugged?"
