Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1490

Alarm bells rang in Luca's head. Her hand on the doorknob was shaking slightly.

If the slip of paper was on the ground, it could only mean that someone had been there. Even though the security measures at the apartment were much better than her previous apartment, Abel would definitely have a way to sneak in.

There were very few things in the world that could stop Abel.

Luca took a deep breath. What should she do if the person inside was Abel? She would not mind it if it were her apartment, but she was in Luke's apartment…

Luke had probably installed surveillance cameras in the apartment. If Abel was inside, would Luke be able to see him through the security feed and therefore find out his plans?

If he could, she would be free.

Luca did not know what to make of the situation. Eventually, she took a deep breath, braced herself, and opened the door.

She was mentally prepared to see Abel behind the door.

The moment she opened the door, she heard sounds from the television. Instantly, her mind went blank.

It sounded as though someone was watching a cartoon.

Luca rushed into the living room. When she saw Tommy sitting on the couch, her wildly beating heart gradually calmed down.

'Thank goodness it's not Abel. Luke won't discover anything just yet…'

Luca was immediately taken aback. Why would she be glad about that?

When Tommy heard the footsteps, he turned over with a grin on his face. He leaned on the couch and said, "You're back, Ms. Luca!"

Luca nodded. She looked around the living room and saw no one other than the boy.

"Why are you here, Tommy?" Luca put her briefcase near the couch. She thought Luke was careless to leave the child alone in the apartment.

"Daddy brought me here, Ms. Luca," Tommy said with a grin. "When we got here earlier, we couldn't get you on the phone, so Daddy and I came in by ourselves."

Luca nodded after hearing the explanation. The apartment was locked by a passcode, and she did not change it. That was why Luke was able to enter.

However, she thought it was wrong to keep the child there by himself.

"Did your Daddy leave after that?" Luca said while patting the child's head. She did not expect that Tommy would come, and there were no snacks or fruits in the apartment.

"No," Tommy replied and pointed toward the bathroom. "Daddy is taking a shower inside. When he went to pick me up from school, a lady deliberately bumped into him and smudged some lipstick on his suit."

Luca felt relieved when she heard that Luke did not abandon the child here.

However, she could not help but chuckle imagining Luke's reaction when the woman bumped into him. She was used to such antics from other women who tried to get close to him.

She knew that Luke was a clean freak. He would change his clothes and take a shower whenever another person left a mark on his clothes or body, as though those people would spread a contagious virus to him.

"Ms. Luca, are you angry?" Tommy asked worriedly when he saw that she was not saying anything.

Luca shook her head. "I'm not angry."

"I thought you're angry when you didn't reply. Daddy said that he let you stay in the apartment, and we shouldn't have come in without your permission." Tommy leaned closer to Luca and grinned. "Daddy couldn't wait any longer though. He really wanted to take a shower."

He knew that Luca adored him, so he hoped that his smile would make Luca forgive their transgression.

Luca smiled and stroked the boy's head.
