Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1292

Luca did not need him to remind her about it. She looked in Dr. Albus’ direction and nodded.

Since she did not say anything, Rhett chose not to either. After all, he just wanted to remind her, but she seemed calmer than he was. Not even a veteran like Dr. Albus could have a temper like hers.

After Luke dropped Luca off at her destination, he went back to the office with his kid.

After arriving at the office, Jason frantically pushed open Luke’s door before he could even get to work. “Boss, Miss Norman is waiting for you in the lobby. She said she has something important she wants to talk to you about.”

“Which one?” Luke replied coldly, not bothering to raise his head.

Jason replied, “Leia Norman, Mrs. Crawford’s younger sister.”

When Luke heard her name, he suddenly remembered that she was here as well. He rejected outright without even thinking about it. “I have no time for her.”

Jason knew he would say that, so he passed on Leia’s message. “Boss, Miss Norman said she has something important about Mrs. Crawford she has to tell you about. She wants to see you no matter what.”

About Bianca…

Luke looked up with an icy expression in his eyes, “Let her in.”

“Yes.” Jason nodded. Just when he was about to inform the reception to invite Leia upstairs, his boss then continued, “Bring Tommy outside.”

Tommy was reading a book when he raised his head and asked, “Daddy, why do I have to go out?”

Luke considered the possibility that Leia might bring up the past, so he did not want to involve the kid in this. That was why he made that arrangement. He said to Tommy, “When adults are talking—”

“Kids should not listen, I got it.” Tommy hopped off the sofa as he followed behind Jason with his reading material in hand.

After a while, the receptionist brought Leia upstairs. “Miss Norman is here.”

“Mm.” Luke glared at Leia coldly. She had been living overseas these past couple of years. Since that fiasco with Jack Norman, her intention of coming back to the country was rejected time and again.

She did not look like she was living a good life now.

The office door closed behind her, and it was only the two of them left in the office. As Leia stared at the man in front of her, her face could not help but show some sentiment for him. However, when he stared at her with those ice-cold eyes, she shuddered for a moment. There was nothing but fear in her heart.

“Mr… Mr. Crawford.” Leia stood there as she tried to overcome the angst inside of her. Even though she had a favor to ask of him, she could not bring herself to call him her brother-in-law.

She had been waiting here ever since Queenie told her Luke had arrived in America. However, the receptionist told her that he had not been in the office the past couple of days, so she did not get to see him until today.

“So you’re finally willing to tell me about the kidnapping that year?” Luke glanced at her before looking away. After all, one second spent looking at her was one second wasted.

His cold words struck Leia as she stood there awkwardly.

She was ready to bargain with him, but he did not seem interested at all.

“I know certain things about what had happened that year, but if I tell you, you’ll have to promise me one thing,” said Leia as she clenched her fist. She was having money problems here in America. She could not take it anymore.
