Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1740

The woman looked in the direction Jean was walking to and knew that he had been bewitched by Luca.

She was jealous when she saw Luca. ‘She’s beautiful, but who isn’t if they’re willing to spend a little money?!’

"B*tch!" The woman scolded as she knew that Jean would not return to her. The big fish she finally caught had gotten off the hook. The woman stood up, finished her drink, and turned around to leave.

Luca was still paying attention to Jean even when she was surrounded by the men. She knew that he saw her when she saw him stand up.

Jean came over with an eager gaze. He changed how he would usually greet her to get closer to Luca. "Luca, why are you here?"

Luca acted surprised. She looked at Jean and said, "I have a lot of things stressing me out, so I just picked a bar at random to drink, but these people..."

She looked helplessly at the men around her, acting like she did not know anything.

Jean did not have much doubt and believed her. "Of course, you wouldn't know since you just returned to A City but this bar is not just for drinking. You want to drink, right? I'll take you to another bar."

Luca went along with his wishes. After all, there were too many wolves eying her in this bar and it was not easy to have a conversation here. Rain told her through the earphones that sometimes, men fought for a woman in this kind of place. She told her to be careful not to cause a scene.

It was not a bad idea to head to another location.

Luca nodded and pretended to look inadvertently at the other corner. She saw that Percy's men and Rain had already stood up. They got the bill and were leaving.

She knew that they would follow her, so she turned her head and walked over to the counter.

Jean was worried that she was going back to her seat. After all, there were so many men around her and it was only a matter of time before they fought for her. He asked, "Luca, don't you want to leave?"

Luca smiled gently and replied, "I have a glass of wine that I need to pay for. I'll go settle the bill first."

A man heard that and said quickly, "Miss, I'll settle the bill for you. Come with me. I'll take you to a better bar to drink."

Jean gave the man a vicious look and said rudely, "No, this is my friend. I'll settle the bill for her."

Seeing him say that, Luca did not fight to settle the bill and left it to Jean.

Before that, she was not on the best of terms with Jean, so it would not be as easy to manipulate him for information. Hence, she deliberately had him settle the bill for her so that they could get closer.

Jean settled Luca’s and his bill before turning to Luca, saying, "It's too messed up here. Shall we go somewhere else?"

"Okay." Luca nodded in agreement, and the two left the bar together.

As they walked out of the bar, Luca asked, "Why did you say this bar is messed up?"

Jean looked at how innocent she seemed and gave an indirect reply, "Everyone who goes in this bar is into something dodgy."

Luca showed a surprised expression and said, "Something dodgy? I didn't know that..."

"Why did you come here?" Jean asked.
