Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 145

Luke stood at the door.

She was not sure if the man was standing there intentionally, but her way out was blocked. There was just a door, but his body was firmly blocking the way…

Allison sat on the sofa and remained silent. She let the Tanner family speak first. Her brother had the first say, then her sister-in-law could add on. On the Crawfords’ side, she had Old Master Crawford.

She did not have the place to speak at all.

That moment, her son, who was the head of their household, came over.

Everyone who was human in the living room did not speak.

Allison wanted to move things on faster. No one wanted to get rid of Bianca more than she did.

In the end, she could not help it anymore. Allison got up from the sofa and walked to the door to take Blanche over. At the same time, she said to the two people who were blocking the doorway. "Sit down. Xavier should be back soon."

"Grandpa called me over. What's the matter?" Luke's calm voice sounded. He heeded his mother’s words, went to the living room sofa, and sat down.

When he moved and made way, his slender fingers left a gap at the door behind him.

His action was a signal for her to leave.

Bianca's eyelashes batted. She grabbed the doorknob, twisted it, and pushed the door open.

…

Only the Crawford family and the Tanner family were left in the living room.

Mrs. Tanner could not hold her emotions in anymore. She said sarcastically to everyone present, "I’ve lived for a very long time. I’m sure I’ve seen many types of people. Normally, I’d say I could easily tell if someone’s a bad person, but I may have to admit that I’m actually quite blind to it!”

Daniel did not know what had happened to his wife.

Mrs. Tanner spoke for her son who had not yet returned, "You guys should know what kind of girls Xavier’s exes were. They’re usually found on gossip tabloids. However, girls like Bea look harmless. Suddenly, she appeared in front of Xavier and now he can’t walk. In fact, he’s lost. Even though Xavier has only met her for a few days, she persuaded my son to marry her…”

Old Master Crawford looked up. "So are you saying that your son is at a disadvantage in this situation?"

"What else–" Mrs. Tanner looked at Old Master Crawford bitterly. Before she could finish, Daniel held her arm.

Mrs. Tanner had no choice but to stop and swallow the rest of her words.

Old Master Crawford glanced at his grandson who did not seem to take this matter seriously. "Luke, did you know that Bea suddenly got married to Xavier?”

Blanche also looked at his Dad…

The Tanners’ housekeeper made tea and respectfully poured a cup for everyone.

Luke saw the tea in front of him but did not drink it. Instead, he lit a cigarette, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Bea's grandfather disappeared inexplicably a while ago, so Bea and I went back to her hometown to look for him. We even called the cops. One night before she got married, we slept together.”

When the old man heard that, his eyes widened...

Daniel, who was his uncle, could not calm down after hearing that…

One was his own son and the other was his nephew. What kind of evil was going on?

Luke took a puff of the cigarette and said, “I’m curious as well as to why Bea got married in a hurry when her grandpa disappeared and was not even found yet.”

The old man put down his teacup and could not stomach the tea anymore.

"Bea’s grandpa has been found?”

"The night she got married, he was found and sent to the hospital." Luke's deep gaze swept across the elders present. In his tone, he was deliberately revealing some kind of information.

He believed that his uncle and aunt were smart enough. They had been cleaning up after Xavier for more than ten years now. Indeed, they knew what their son had done.

When the time came, he did not wish to do anything crazy. He just wanted to give them a warning and to clear things up.

Bianca was easy to bully, so when she kept everything and swallowed her anger, he could not hold it in anymore.

Mrs. Tanner was no longer arrogant anymore, and her hands started shaking a little.
