Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1289

Jason wanted to speak up for Luke, but Sue might think he had sold his soul to Luke.

Hence, he had no other choice but to nod and reiterate, “I got it. I’ll keep an eye on him. By the way, don’t tell anyone else about this. I don’t think he wants the Crawford family to know just yet.”

“Alright. Even though I feel bad for Bianca, I won’t tell anyone since you said so,” replied Sue. She then looked at the time and urged Jason to sleep. “It’s getting late, you should get some rest. Goodbye.”

“Alright, wait for me,” Jason said as she looked at her affectionately.

Sue knew if she did not hang up there and then, he would not either. Hence, she did.

She then looked over to the sisters who were attentively drawing at the other side of the room. She mused for a moment and decided to give Bianca a call.

They drifted further and further apart from each other after Bianca lost her memory.

Sue understood why Bianca did not want to interact with her, so that was why she avoided disturbing her and asking her how she was. However, she could not help herself any longer now.

She held her breath, and after a few seconds, the call went through.

“Hello.” Bianca’s voice came through the speaker.

Sue said to her, “Bea, it’s me, Sue.”

Bianca was stunned when she heard Sue’s voice from the other end of the call. After she pretended to lose her memory, she deliberately distanced herself from Sue and never contacted her. She did not expect a phone call from her.

She asked, “Is anything the matter?”

Sue noticed the coldness in Bianca’s voice and felt uncomfortable. She reminisced about the times when the three of them did business together, but now they felt like complete strangers. Bianca did not even say hello, and that made her sad.

Bianca heard nothing from the other side of the line, so she looked at her phone and asked again, “Is anything the matter?”

“Oh, it’s nothing. Jason said that you’re sick and you’re in the hospital right now, so I called to ask how you’re doing. How are you feeling?” Sue snapped back to her senses. Her voice was neutral but courteous.

“I’m fine,” Bianca replied, feeling quite baffled by the sudden question.

Did Sue call just so she could curry favor with her? Jason was Sue’s boyfriend, and he was Luke’s subordinate, so it would be quite natural for her to do so.

However, that seemed a little too late, right?

Sue then replied, “That’s good, then. By the way, Mr. Crawford brought Jason on a business trip, so I wanted to ask if he has contacted you?”

Bianca knew for a fact that Jason and Sue had some issues. They had daughters together but were not married. It was natural for her not to contact Jason but look for Bianca instead. “No, I think Luke’s really busy, so he didn’t call.”

“Oh, I see. That’s all, then.” Sue heard the coldness in Bianca’s voice and decided not to tell her anything.

She felt bad for her, but she felt very uneasy about Bianca’s arrogant attitude.

Sue then hung up the call.

After Bianca heard the beeping tone, she suddenly remembered that Luke had not bothered to give her a call these couple of days. He did not even ask her how she was doing.

He did not notify her after arriving at his destination either.

Bianca had not called him as well because she was feeling unwell…

Maybe he was too busy, that was why he forgot…

Bianca looked at the time in America and thought of giving him a call when it was daytime over there. After all, she had to keep on pretending.
