Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1405

Luca did not have any children, but she prepared those cupcake boxes…

It was as though she was doing that for Rainie.

Luke did not voice his thoughts. Looking at the clock, he stood up.

Before he said anything, Luca picked up Tommy's backpack.

"Ms. Luca?" Tommy did not understand what Luca was doing. At the same time, Luke also looked at her.

Luca felt a little awkward being stared at like that. She handed the backpack to Luke and cleared her throat. "It's getting late, Mr. Crawford. Tommy needs to go home."

"But I want to watch the cartoon before I go, Ms. Luca," Tommy said as he looked at the clock on the wall. It was only eight o'clock, which was one hour earlier than the usual time.

Luca thought for a while and said, "The cupcakes won't be as nice if you eat them later."

Tommy thought that it made sense. He knew that Lanie and Rainie wanted to taste Luca's cooking again, but only he had the chance to do so. He nodded, took the backpack, and waved his hand reluctantly. "Alright then, we should go."

Luke did not object to it. He picked up the box of cupcakes and the briefcase from the coffee table.

Tommy grabbed his shirt sleeve obediently. Luca noticed that Luke's coat was hanging on the rack, so she went over, picked it up, and handed it to him. "Your coat, Mr. Crawford."

Luke took the coat and nodded. "Thank you."

Luca smiled. Their fingers touched when Luca handed the coat to him, and it brought back sweet memories from the past. She could feel a warm current coursing through her body.

Luca gently rubbed her fingers and tried hard not to look emotional.

After Tommy stepped out of the apartment, he turned around and waved at Luca. "Goodbye, Ms. Luca."

"Bye." Luca came to her senses and waved her hand.

As usual, she watched the father and son enter the elevator before closing the door.

She was alone in the living room, but the television was on. Tommy's favorite cartoon had started airing.

Tears welled up in Luca's eyes as she listened to the voices in the cartoon. That was Tommy's favorite cartoon since three years ago. Back then, if Luke did not have to work overtime in the office, the family of five would have dinner together, and Luke and she would sit together with Tommy to watch the cartoon.

She missed those times…

Luca picked up the remote control and turned off the television.

It was still early. Luca went into Amur's bedroom and continued the research on the antidote.

Even though the police did not divulge too much information, Luca could tell that the impostor was not murdered. Instead, she died because she did not take the antidote in time.

She knew that as much as Luke cared for her, he would not take another person's life so easily. It was the same for Gale and Rain. In their training on the Island of Despair, they would have learned how to torture someone without causing any lasting damage.

Creating the antidote was an arduous process. Luca patiently analyzed the components.

Meanwhile, Tommy and Luke left the apartment complex. After they got into the car, he said sternly to his father, "Daddy, can you smile a little more?"
