Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1526

It was the first time that Luca had to lie outdoors with no regard to her image. She wondered if she would have to spend the night with Luke here.

If the rain continued, it would not be very convenient for Jason and the others to find them…

After lying for some time, Luca thought that the hard stone surface was quite uncomfortable. She slowly flipped to the other side and happened to meet Luke's gaze.

She was surprised. When did he start looking at her?

"Are you uncomfortable?" Luke noticed that she was not lying still. Perhaps it was caused by the injury on her waist.

"No, it's just that the surface is quite tiring to lie on. I just wanted to change sides," Luca half-closed her eyes to avert his gaze.

Lying on the other side was a little easier on her back, but her clothes were wet, so it was not very comfortable.

She did not mind the wet clothes too much, but she knew that Luke was a clean freak.

Even though Luke was sitting there calmly, Luca could guess that he was seconds away from freaking out.

"Mr. Crawford," Luca called out softly.

"Mm," Luke replied. He was not in the mood to talk.

"Why did you come to Mount Jadeite today?" Luca asked. She thought that it was quite awkward if they did not say anything. She also wanted to know if he had instructed Tina to invite her.

If that were the case, what did he want from her?

"Exercise," Luke said. As busy as he might be at work, he would find some time to exercise.

He did not want to lose out in any aspect of his character.

He looked at Luca and saw that her eyes were still half-closed. Was she suspecting that he had deliberately arranged the hiking trip?

However, he had not arranged for them to meet up. He did not know that Tina was going to Mount Jadeite too.

The only event he arranged was the swimming competition the day before. He did not expect that Luca would recover so quickly from the accident.

Usually, someone who had suffered a leg cramp and nearly drowned would be out of commission for one or two days. He was surprised that Luca was already fit enough to go hiking the next day.

Luca thought for a bit and realized that it might have been a mere coincidence.

She shifted a little to find a better position but realized that Luke was still looking at her. Immediately, she stopped moving.

The rain became heavier. Gusts of wind battered the gazebo, and Luca shivered.

Her clothes and hair were still wet. If this went on, she thought that she would freeze.

The wind in the fall was not as comfortable as that in summer.

Luca discreetly reached behind her and tried to massage her back.

It was not as comfortable as someone else doing it, but it did bring some relief to the discomfort on her spine.

Luke noticed what she was doing. He stood up.

Luca watched him walk around the table and stop behind her. Thinking that he wanted to leave, she immediately stood up. "Where are you going, Mr. Crawford?"

Luke sat down on the stone bench next to her and said as though issuing a command, "Lie down."

Luca looked at her, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally lay down.

Her back was still facing him…

Her clothes were dark-colored. Even though they were soaked through, they did not show the skin underneath. In any case, she had already given birth to four children for Luke, so he had already seen whatever there was to see…
