Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1435

The next morning, when Luca prepared to go to work, she saw Nina's car parked in front of her apartment.

She was sensitive with numbers, so she remembered Nina's license plate. She walked up to the car and knocked on the window.

Nina rolled the window down. When she saw that it was Luca, she unlocked the car doors. "Good morning, Dr. Craw. I'm going to T Corporation to give my quarterly report, so I'm wondering if you want to hitch a ride."

Luca did not reject the offer. She nodded, went to the other side of the car, and sat inside.

After Luca fastened her seatbelt, Nina started the car and drove toward T Corporation.

"Are you worried about something?" Luca asked.

Nina brushed her hair and said awkwardly, "You noticed it?"

"I can see that you were thinking about something. If I hadn't recognized your license plate, you probably wouldn't have realized that I left the apartment," Luca said. She knew that Nina was waiting for her, but Nina did not realize Luca was outside. That was why Luca thought that Nina's mind was occupied with something.

Nina sighed and said, "I'm worried about you. That useless brother of mine seems to have set his sights on you. I didn't lie to you when I said that I have to go to T Corporation to hand in my quarterly report, but I'm also worried that he might stalk you. That's why I waited for you here, and I can give you a ride too."

Yesterday, she had received a call from the care worker.

After Nina left, Anna and Jean discussed how to trick Nina so that they could obtain Luca's phone number and address. The care worker was employed by Nina, so she had the obligation to tell her employer what was going on.

"Don't worry," Luca said. She knew that Nina was concerned about her.

"Sigh, you probably don't know that my brother isn't an honest person. He has friends who can find out where you live if they want. If he hasn't changed, I'm genuinely worried about you," Nina said worriedly. None of that would have happened if she had not offered to send Luca home.

It would be very troublesome for Luca if Jean set his sights on her.

Jean was generally useless, but he had friends who were gangsters. Most of his money was spent on those people, and Jean had always said that he was "exploring career opportunities."

Those people were up to no good. If Jean asked for their help to find out where Luca lived, they would definitely succeed, and Luca would suffer.

"Thanks for telling me. I'll keep an eye on things." Luca could tell that Nina was concerned about her safety.

Nina continued, "Also, if he managed to harass you, you must let me know. I'll help you wherever I can."

Luca smiled and nodded.

"You didn't sleep well last night, right?" She asked.

Nina was taken aback, though she admitted it. "Yes, I didn't sleep well. I can't stop thinking that my mom needs another liver transplant."

"Why? Who was her donor the first time?" Luca knew the answer to the question, but she had to pretend that she did not know.

"My brother was the donor. Back then, my mom didn't agree to the donation, and she said that she wanted to find a liver on the black market. Eventually, my brother managed to persuade her to accept the donation, and that was how they could proceed with the operation so quickly," Nina said.

Luca nodded. Nina continued, "To be frank, my brother didn't donate the liver because he wanted to save our mother. Instead, he could have his sentence reduced if he agreed to the operation. My brother was sent to prison because of a crime he committed, and he'd rather lose half of his liver just so that he could get out early. You must find my family very ridiculous."

When Luca heard that, she had the urge to give Nina a hug.

Luca shook her head and tried to say some words of comfort, but Nina continued, "It's been so many years, and I'm already used to it."
