Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1616

Percy stood there, looking disheveled. "Send me back. It'll be inconvenient to drive mine."

Nina thought for a moment. Indeed, she had to use her car tomorrow. She would have to hail a ride and drive her car back if she drove Percy home with his car.

Although she was disgusted by the strong alcohol smell on him, she wanted to rest early today. Hence, she pulled out her keys and pressed the button.

The car that was parked on the roadside beeped at once.

Nina said, “Come on, get him into the car.”

The waiter chose not to say anything and helped him get into Nina’s car since Percy was one of the bar’s VIPs.

She took a deep breath and looked at the man in the passenger seat. Then, she got into the car.

She forgot to remind the waiter, who immediately placed Percy in the front passenger seat. She had no choice but to give up on the idea. She would save herself the trouble of moving him to the backseat.

The air in the car was filled with a strong alcohol smell when she closed the door.

It was so strong that Nina was worried the traffic police would think that she was drunk driving if she breathed in a few more puffs. She opened all the car windows.

"It's nighttime. I'm cold." Percy mumbled as he lifted his hand, trying to close the window.

Nina rolled her eyes. Back then, he was never this talkative after drinking. He was so talkative today, and it annoyed her. “You stink of alcohol. I’m just trying to get some fresh air.”

Percy listened to what she said and fell silent for a moment.

When Nina thought he would finally stop talking, he spoke again, “You never used to think that I wasn’t good enough.”

“You used to…” Nina paused for a moment. Indeed, she never used to think that he was not good enough. It was because she thought she was not good enough. She laughed at herself and said, “Do you know why? Because you were my financial support at that time. Who was I to think that you weren’t good enough? But things are different now. I’m free, and I have the right to think so.”

Percy was unhappy to hear that, but he could not be bothered to talk that much. He might as well just close his eyes.

Nina did not hear any reply from him. She wondered if she had gone too far with her words, but did it even matter if she was mean to him?

Percy was not short of women who admired him, and she never knew how to please him. There were still many women out there who were willing to flatter him with compliments to please him.

He could ask her to stop the car anytime he wanted if he was unhappy with her.

Moreover, this would be their last time seeing each other if nothing unexpected happened again. All was fine as long as he never showed up in front of her again.

There was dead silence in the car. Nina was breathing the air that carried his smell, and she told herself to focus on driving.

Percy’s phone rang.

Nina knew that it was the Instagram message notification.

Percy lazily pulled his phone out of his pocket and glanced at it. Then, he typed a few words and put it back into his pocket without saying a word.

Nina could not hold herself back any longer and asked, “Any news on Luca?”

"No," Percy spoke calmly, "They said Pierre never left the house today."

"What do you mean? Him not leaving the house doesn't mean that he's not a suspect. If he's the mastermind behind this, there's no need for him to leave the house. Besides, he didn't leave the house today but he was running around last night. It's probably because he's the mastermind and no one can find out what he did last night."

“I know how to do this. You don’t have to worry about it.” Percy felt a pain in his head when he listened to her words.

Nina was suddenly so talkative when she used to be quiet back then. Percy was having mixed feelings.

This was her true nature…

She was talkative, and she talked about something over and over again. She was completely different from the good and quiet Nina who used to be with him.
