Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 156

Luke gave Bianca a call as he stood outside the club. “I’m at the entrance. You’ll see me when you come out."

"Okay, I'm going out right now.”

After Bianca hung up, she changed into her clothes and hurried out.

The black Range Rover was parked domineeringly at the most conspicuous position in front of the entertainment club.

"Get in.”

Luke secretly held her waist, opened the door with his other hand, and even quietly protected her head with his hand when she got in the car in case she knocked her head on the car door frame.

Bianca sat down in the passenger seat and lowered her head as she fastened her seat belt.

Luke closed the car door and finished smoking a cigarette. He narrowed his dark eyes and walked toward the trash can in front of the club to put out his cigarette before getting into the car.

Bianca wanted to hurry him and wished he did not smoke, but she was scared that it might anger him.

When she saw that he was not in a hurry at all, she could not help but wonder whether the situation with Rainie’s eyes was actually serious or not.

Otherwise, why would the father of the child not be in a hurry?

It would take at least one and a half hours to drive from the city center to the villa where Charles and his wife, Faye, lived in the suburbs–And that was if there was no traffic congestion.

Luke focused on driving and was silent.

Bianca did not dare to utter a word either, so the car was very quiet.

While they waited for the red light outside Third Ring, the silence in the car was broken by the ringing of her phone.

Bianca hurriedly took out her phone to see who was calling.

The caller ID showed that it was Brayden calling.

The only thing she would be talking to Brayden about was their relationship issue. It was most likely going to be their breakup as it was already decided earlier on.

In the subway, she had already answered Brayden's mother's call.

Bianca did not want to answer the call from Brayden anymore, so she declined the call.

After the phone was quiet for about 30 seconds, Brayden called again.

Bianca declined the call again.

This went on over and over again. It seemed like Brayden needed to talk to her.

Bianca did not dare to turn off her phone in case Grandpa or Dad called about something important.

"Are there any calls that you can't answer in front of me?" Luke started driving and glanced at her with his dark eyes as he asked in a deep voice.

The red light on the road ahead turned green.

"It’s nothing concerning you. I just don’t feel like answering it,” Bianca said and answered her phone.

The lights on the street at night were brightly lit with happy-looking people walking on the street in twos and threes with smiles on their faces.

However, Bianca was not like them.

She could not even remember when she laughed that happily in the 24 years since her birth.

"Hello," Bianca answered.

"Why didn't you answer the phone?" Brayden's voice was quiet. "Did my mom call you?"

"Yes, she called me this morning," Bianca said.

"I'm sorry..." Brayden was silent for more than ten seconds before saying, "I don't know if my mother said anything insulting to you. If so, let me apologize on behalf of her.”

Bianca leaned her head against the car window and lowered her head. "It's okay, you don't need to apologize.” She was no saint either. She was also angry and speechless when Brayden’s mother said those things to her.

However, she just wanted to sort out the status of their relationship as soon as possible and end the call quickly.

"Bianca, I would like to believe that you’re a good woman... I also believe in you. I don’t think that you’d deliberately deceive me. It's just that between us..." Brayden had a hard time speaking. After a long time, he finally said, "It’s not easy for me to earn money either. I’ve been cheated out of my money by too many women. That’s why I… I have to guard against..."

The corners of Bianca’s mouth twitched downward.
