Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1253

Chapter 1253 Selected

"Thank you, Ms. Luca!" Tommy thanked Luca and continued eating.

Luke noticed that Luca was very gentle toward Tommy. Over the past three years, he knew that many people had tried to be nice to Tommy so that they could get closer to Luke, but none of them had managed to do what Luca did.

Her care toward the boy seemed to be genuine. She was not faking it at all.

Luke picked up his fork and began to eat.

Luca felt slightly relieved when she saw that Luke had started eating.

It was the third time sitting at the same dining table as Luke. Every time, she could not process her feelings.

Fifteen minutes later, all the plates were swept clean. Luca stood up and cleared the table.

Tommy yawned.

Luke noticed that it was already eleven o'clock. Usually, Tommy would have already been in bed, but today was different.

"Tommy is sleepy, Mr. Crawford. You should send him home." Luca also thought it was already quite late.

When Tommy heard that, he shook his head and said, "I'm not sleepy at all."

He wanted to stay there for a bit longer. Somehow, he felt safe and comfortable whenever he was in Luca's house.

Luke could see that Tommy was barely awake. He thought that Tommy really liked Luca.

He stood up and said, "Thank you for your supper." "You're welcome." Luca put the stacked plates and cutlery on the dining table once more. "Let me see you out."

Luca saw them out at the door. After Luke took Tommy's hand and they went out of the house, Luca closed the door slightly and watched them leave.

Tommy turned around and looked at her. He was reluctant to leave.

Luca waved at him.

Tommy waved back. "I'll be back to visit you again, Ms. Luca."

Luca nodded but did not say anything. She only closed the door after watching them go into the elevator.

She leaned on the door and looked at the stack of plates and cutlery on the dining table.

Other than feeling relief that Luke and Tommy had left her house, she also felt reluctance. She did not want to see them leave.

Every time they met, Luca felt that she was becoming more and more inseparable from Luke...

She closed her eyes weakly, pretending that Luke was still in the house.

A week later, Luca presented her research findings during a meeting. She was the last one to present, but she was also the researcher who showed the most progress.

After her presentation, everyone's gazes fell on Luke.

Today, Luke would decide on who to send to the off-site training in New York.

Luke did not immediately announce his decision. Instead, he looked at Cole. "Who do you think should go, Dr. Kidman?"

Cole was quite confused. During the research period, Luca had been absent often, and she would regularly take time off work. Why would her research progress the fastest?

Moreover, her research topic was not an easy one...

Cole thought that he would be one of the chosen, but it seemed that he could only be number three.
