Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1464

Tears welled up in Nina's eyes when she saw that Luca came prepared.

She thought that Luca was worried about her, and that was why Luca wanted to stay over for a few days…

Luca thought that Nina was reluctant to let her stay there. She said, "If it's not convenient for you, I can book the room next door. I don't have my ID with me now, so I might have to borrow your ID to book a room."

Her concern for Nina was genuine, but she was also using Nina for her convenience.

She would have to go and take the antidote in two days. It would not be very convenient if Luke's subordinates tailed her.

Nina said, "I'm happy that you're willing to accompany me. Thank you so much, Luca."

She was genuinely touched by Luca's gesture, and she called her "Luca" instead of "Dr. Craw."

Luca smiled and put her backpack away. "What would it be? Can you still sleep?"

Nina shook her head. "I don't think I can sleep."

Luca could see the sorrow in her eyes. Even though she had missed out on what happened between Nina and Percy for the last three years, she could guess that Nina was not used to the sudden breakup.

"I have an idea. How about we drink some wine?" Luca suggested with a smile. It was easier to release one's feelings after taking a glass or two, and it would be easier to fall asleep as well.

However, alcohol was bad for health. If it were not the case, Luca would rather drink wine to help her sleep rather than take sleeping pills.

Nina nodded in agreement, though she glanced at Luca's forehead and shook her head. "You still have a wound on your forehead. You shouldn't drink wine."

"Don't you want to drink?" Luca asked.

"I want to, but the wine isn't going to be good for your wound," Nina said. She wondered if Luke would blame her if something happened to Luca.

She immediately stopped herself after arriving at that thought. 'Why would Luke and Luca…

'That's impossible…' Nina quickly discarded that thought. Even if Luke was a scumbag, Luca was not that kind of woman.

"You can drink wine. I'll just drink grape juice," Luca suggested. Grape juice looked similar to red wine, and it did not have alcohol. That would not ruin the mood.

Nina agreed. She could not seem to clear her thoughts, so it might be a good thing to numb herself using alcohol.

Seeing that Nina agreed to it, Luca called for room service.

The hotel they were staying in was quite high-class, so room service was available around the clock.

Ten minutes later, an attendant brought the drinks to their room. Luca decanted the red wine and let it stand for ten minutes, then handed a glass to Nina. "Here, this is for you. You don't have to worry about getting drunk. I can take care of you."

Nina took the bottle and glass, poured herself a glassful of wine, and clinked glasses with Luca. "A toast to you, Luca. This is to celebrate us becoming friends!"

"Cheers!" Luca smiled and clinked her glass of grape juice with Nina's glass.

She remembered the times back in school when she had just become friends with Nina. During their lunch break, they would go to the cafeteria, get themselves a cup of fruit slushy each, then chat about teen girl problems.

So many years had passed in the blink of an eye. They led different lives which carried a different set of problems.

Nina downed the wine glass after glass. She only wanted to intoxicate herself.

Her alcohol tolerance had improved ever since she became Percy's lover. It took her two bottles before she felt slightly dizzy.
