Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1424

Luca skimmed through the news articles. Some of them were criticizing Tia, while others did a thorough analysis of the two people.

There were many reports, and all of them contributed to the popularity of the scandal.

Luca smiled bitterly and shook her head.

…

The next morning, shortly after Luca woke up, she received a message from Sue, asking if she would attend the birthday party today.

Luca sent Sue her reply and began to freshen up.

It was a children's birthday party, so there was no need to be too formal. Luca changed into a plain-colored long dress, wore a pair of flats, picked up the presents, and left the apartment.

When she arrived at Jason's mansion, she rang the doorbell.

The young caretaker jogged over and opened the door. She was wearing a headband with the words "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" on it.

"Welcome, Dr. Craw," the caretaker said with a smile. She addressed Luca like how Jason did.

"Yes. That's a cute headband," Luca said as she walked through the gate with the presents.

The caretaker touched the headband and said, "Ms. Carter prepared this for us. Kari and Teri like the headbands. Oh, Dr. Craw, you brought them presents too!"

"Mm. I can't possibly come to a birthday party empty-handed," Luca said.

"Kari and Teri will be ecstatic!" The caretaker said as she and Luca entered the living room.

Sue had hired a professional team to decorate the house. Luca thought that she had stepped into a fantasy castle.

"You're here, Luca," Sue said when she saw Luca. She put away the balloons in her hands.

"Mm. Do you need my help?" Luca said and nodded. She could tell that Sue and Jason loved their daughters very much.

Suddenly, she thought of her daughter Nyla. It was almost Nyla's birthday, but she had never organized a birthday party for her.

She was not there for Lanie and Rainie when they were young, but she knew that Luke had never mistreated them.

Nyla, on the other hand…

"All the decorations are done. Jason hired some people to do all this. They're providing the catering as well, so that saves us a lot of trouble," Sue said with a grin. She was in an excellent mood because it was her daughters' birthday.

Luca came to her senses and nodded. She handed the boxes in her hands to Sue. "Here are the presents for Kari and Teri."

It was normal to give presents at a birthday party, so Sue did not say anything. She accepted the presents happily and got the caretaker to take them upstairs.

"Where are the girls?" Luca asked.

"They're still styling up upstairs. Jason wanted them to be at their best today, so he hired two stylists for them. He wanted the girls to look like princesses in a fairy tale, and I can't do that for them," Sue explained. Then, she continued, "Make yourself at home, Luca. We didn't invite too many people today, and we'll start the party when everyone's here."

They invited some of Kari and Teri's best friends at school as well as some of Jason's friends.

"Then you should buy some chocolate for her, Ma'am. I'm sure that she'll be happy if you give her chocolate," the little girl said innocently.

Luca put the piece of chocolate away and patted the little girl's head. "Mm, thank you. I'll buy a lot of delicious chocolate for her."

The little girl ran back to her friends happily.

As Luca watched the children play with each other, she thought it would be nice if Nyla had a group of friends of her age.

The Island of Despair was an evil and dark place. It was not conducive to a child's growth. Luca constantly worried that Nyla would be influenced.

She thought that Nyla must be feeling lonely there…

She sighed.

The doorbell rang. The caretaker came up to Luca and said, "I'll go and get the door, Dr. Craw. Can you look after the children for a while?"

"Alright," Luca said and nodded.

The children were all Kari and Teri's friends, and it should not be an ordeal to keep all of them in check.

The caretaker smiled, then went toward the door.

Three minutes later, Luca saw the caretaker come into the house with a horrified expression on her face. Just when Luca was wondering what was wrong, she heard Bailey's voice from outside, "Where's that b*tch Sue Carter? Come out now!"

Her shrill and loud voice scared the children playing in the living room. They stopped laughing, and all their eyes looked at her.
