Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1269

William noticed that Luca was looking at him, so he waved to her. "Hey, what a coincidence! We meet again. I'm William. Do you remember me?"

Luca planned to use the same trick as in the morning. She pretended not to understand him, looked away, and continued to eat her food.

William glanced at Paul when he did not get a reply from Luca.

Paul said, "Why don't you try the translation app you downloaded earlier?"

William nodded and opened the translation app on her phone. With the app, Luca could not use the excuse that she did not understand English.

Dr. Albus watched the scene unfold and remembered how Luca had given him the cold shoulder earlier. A mischievous thought brewed in his mind. "Do you need something from Dr. Craw?"

William paused and smiled. "Dr. Craw? Is Craw your name?"

Luca frowned when she heard the student call out her name. Did Dr. Albus deliberately do that?

She turned her head to look at her surroundings. Thanks to William's presence in the restaurant, some of the other customers were looking toward them.

Luca could tell that William was an outstanding individual. She could see that many female students were looking at her jealously.

She sighed and said, "I'm not interested."

Luca said those words quite clearly, and the people at the surrounding tables could hear what she said.

The female students were stunned in disbelief. How could she not be interested in William, or was she just playing hard to get?

The male students, on the other hand, were whispering among each other, gloating over William's embarrassment. After all, William had stood in the limelight for too long.

William was unhappy that he was rejected. He did not feel as embarrassed when Luca rejected his advances that morning because it was a communication issue, but now, Luca had rejected him while speaking in English.

If he could understand what Luca was saying, everyone in the restaurant would understand too.

William slowly clenched his fists. His cheeks were on fire.

Rhett thought that William wanted to get physical. He took a deep breath and stood up. "Mr. William, Dr. Craw has already said that she's not interested. Please leave now and do not disturb us."

William turned to look at Rhett. The former was much taller and more muscular than the latter because he had been working out regularly.

Just when William was about to charge toward Rhett, Paul grabbed William's shoulder while his other hand tapped Luca's handbag. "It's alright, William. We're the ones at fault for disrupting their lunch. Let's go."

William did not feel so embarrassed when his friend helped him. They left the restaurant.

Paul turned around and smiled ambiguously when he looked at the woman who was eating lunch calmly.

Luca continued to eat her lunch, though she could hear the discussions happening on the surrounding tables.

"Who's that woman?"

"I don't know. She seems too old to be a student. Is she a teacher?"

"I don't think that we have a teacher who's so ugly! Isn't there some conference at the grand auditorium today? I guess she's an attendee."

"It doesn't matter who she is. If I see her alone later, I'll teach her a lesson on behalf of William."

Luca was silent as she listened to the conversation among the girls.
