Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1642

Old Master Crawford glared at her while listening to her complaints. He was not in the mood to argue with her. He gave his orders to the butler, “Drive Thea to her competition venue and don’t delay her.”

“Yes, Old Master Crawford.” Mr. Griffin nodded and gave him his promise.

Susan stopped complaining when she heard that.

On the other hand.

Luke hurried to the hospital. Johann had received the footage that night through his connections. He pressed on the play button when he saw Luke come in.

Luke’s face turned gloomy when he watched the video of the incident from the beginning till the end. “Was he caught?”

"No. He's good. The security guards upstairs informed the guards downstairs to catch him if they saw him. Still, they didn't manage to grab him and he escaped. This man was wearing a mask and a cap. We can’t get a good look at him," said Johann as he shook his head.

“He’s not one of Percy’s men.” Luke looked at how nimble the man was in the video. He avoided the guards’ pursuit and escaped from the hospital swiftly. Then, that was the end of it.

“Are you sure?”Johann raised his eyebrows.

"He's too good. Percy doesn't have anyone like that." Luke was sure about it. "I'm afraid this man is one of the members of the organization that’s manipulating Luca behind the scenes.

Johann suddenly understood and asked, “Hasn’t Dr. Craw already been rescued? Why did someone from the organization show up here?”

Luke fell silent. He had no idea about that either.

They made Luca change her appearance and return here. They hid her true identity and made arrangements for her to get into his company. They were up to something.

Therefore, their plan must have something to do with him.

The first thing that came into Luke’s mind was the Island of Despair. However, there was no tattoo on Luca’s body. He was not 100 percent sure about it.

He stood up and headed outside.

Johann asked, “Where are you going?”

“To the ward.” Luke left without looking back.

He came to the ward and stood there for half a minute. Then, he pushed the door open slowly.

Nina was helping Luca brush her teeth and wash her face. She was being utmost careful because Luca’s face was still swollen.

“Grab my hand if it hurts,” Nina said in a soft voice.

Luca closed her eyes and allowed Nina to help.

When she heard someone pushing the ward’s door open, she opened her eyes and saw Luke walking into the ward.

Nina turned around and looked at the door too. She paused what she was doing when she saw him. There was a hint of mockery in her words as she said, “Mr. Crawford, you’re here way too early.”

The expression on Luke’s face was gloomy as he looked at the enigmatic Nina. He could not be bothered to deal with her since she did not know the truth. He went straight to Luca’s bedside and asked caringly, “Are you feeling better?”

Luca nodded her head. She could sense there was a hint of tension between Luke and Nina. She reckoned that it was because of her.

She typed a sentence on her phone: [Mr. Crawford, what brought you here?]

Luke's face turned even darker looking at how awkward she was being. He explained, "A man came into your ward last night. I came to find out what happened."

Nina wrung the towel dry and asked, “You came to find out what happened? Are you a cop?”
