Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1699

“Welcome, Ms. Craw.” A few of them surrounded Luca and greeted her passionately.

Luca got even more confused, and she quickly told them why she was here. “Hello, Mr. Crawford sent me here. Did he buy something here?”

After the manager knew that Luca was here, she quickly came forward. “Hello, Ms. Craw. Mr. Crawford didn’t buy anything here, but he has given us his orders. Please come with me.”

Luca looked at Nina. What was Luke up to?

Nina held her hand and followed behind the shop manager. She said in a low voice, “Based on the situation now, they’re planning to ask you to buy something.”

“Ah, there’s nothing I’d like to buy,” Luca replied in a soft voice. Why did Luke ask her to come here, then?

The manager walked in front of them and listened to their conversation. She turned sideways and explained, "Ms. Craw, Mr. Crawford told us that you'll be attending a party the day after tomorrow. Hence, we'll be creating a perfect look for you to attend the party."

“Party?” Luca frowned. She had never accepted any party invitation.

Nina was able to figure it out at once. She said, “She’s probably talking about Old Master Crawford’s birthday party. I heard that they’ve been preparing the birthday party for a long time. It’s going to be a grand one.”

“But I didn’t receive any invitation. Why am I attending the party?” Luca said. If it had not been for Luke who asked her to come here, she would doubt that the shop assistants might have mistaken her for someone else.

“You didn’t? Aren’t e-invitations quite popular now? Check if they sent it to your email. You might have missed out on the e-invitation,” Nina said thoughtfully. Luke must have invited Luca to the party if he made such arrangements.

Luca shook her head helplessly. She read every email in her mailbox. She would never have missed it.

The shop assistant smiled and said, “Yes. Since Mr. Crawford has made such arrangements, you must have received the invitation but you probably missed it.”

Luca shook her head helplessly. Nina touched her with her elbow and suggested, "Just go along with it since Luke arranged it."

“Alright.” Luca decided to listen to her.

The shop assistant brought the two of them into a fitting room. She picked up the measuring tape and took Luca’s measurements. Then, she explained, “Ms. Craw, there’s not much time left, so we can’t customize a new gown for you. I’ll try my best to pick a gown and alter it to fit you. Is that fine?”

"Yes." Luca had no opinion on this. She thought it would be fine as long as the clothes fit her. She may not attend Old Master Crawford's birthday party even if Luke bought a gown for her.

After all, she did not have the status.

Nina glanced around at the gowns, gave a tsk, and exclaimed, “As expected from the haute couture of a luxury brand. These gowns are beautiful.”

When Luca heard that she said, "Which do you like better? I'll buy you one."

“I can’t wear gowns to work. What’s the point of buying one for me?” Nina turned around and smiled. She blinked her eyes. She had worn these gowns before, but it was in the past.

When she was together with Percy, even though she did not have a status, he would still bring her to various kinds of events.

Getting luxurious gowns and pieces of jewelry was a must when she attended those events.

Nina recalled the time when she lived the life people desired.

Although she did not feel happy, she could live a splendid life because of that.
