Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1428

Luke's eyelids drooped when he heard that.

Luca looked at the eagerness on the child's face. The impostor Bianca was already dead, and Luke would probably never find the real Bianca…

On Tommy's next birthday, the woman who would blow out Tommy's candles with Tommy would be Tia…

Luca felt uneasy as she held the child's hand in her hand. The more she thought about Tia, the more awkward she felt standing next to Tommy and Luke.

She could understand why Luke would be deceived by the impostor Bianca. After all, he did not know that Bianca was an impostor. Now that the impostor Bianca was out of the picture, he was involved in a scandal with Tia.

She thought that the man she loved had changed…

However, the change was not entirely unexpected. The real Bianca had been missing for three years, so what right did she have to demand Luke to be loyal to her?

Luca saw that Sue was cutting the cake. She let go of Tommy's hand and said, "I'll go and help her."

Tommy nodded.

Luca went to the cake and offered to help.

Sue said, "Don't worry about it, Luca. Let me do it."

"It's fine. I can help you," Luca said. She did not want to hold Tommy's hand. That would make her feel as though she still had a bond with Luke.

While they were putting the slices of cake onto paper plates, the caretaker came into the living room with Nina following behind her.

"What took you so long, Nina?" Sue smiled when she noticed Nina.

Nina explained, "Something happened in the family, so I was delayed. Here are the presents for the girls."

The caretaker took the presents from Nina's hands and gave them to Kari and Teri.

Luca smiled and nodded at Nina. She could see the haggardness on Nina's face even though Nina wore thick make-up to cover it.

Nina smiled at her, then went over to Sue. "Do you need any help?"

"Don't worry about it. You just got here, so make yourself at home and have some cake," Sue said as she distributed the paper plates to the children.

Tommy pulled his hand away from Luke and ran over to Nina's side. "I miss you so much, Godmother. Why haven't you been visiting me?"

Nina patted the child's head and said, "I'm sorry, I have been very busy lately. I'll bring you to the theme park when I'm free, alright?"

"Yay!" Tommy cheered happily. He could understand that Nina was busy with her work.

Luca was glad to see that Tommy still had a good relationship with Nina. She handed a paper plate to Tommy and said, "Have some cake, Tommy."

"Thank you, Ms. Luca!" Tommy smiled and took the plate.

Luke said nothing as he watched the interaction, though he seemed pensive.

Jason went over to him and asked, "Mr. Crawford, shall we continue our conversation from earlier?"

They had not finished their discussion in the study. Luke called for a timeout because he knew that Kari and Teri would want Jason to be there when they blew out the candles on their birthday cake.

Luke nodded, and the two men went upstairs. Tommy was in safe hands, so Luke had nothing to worry about.
