Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1751

Luca was speechless. It seemed like Jason was not willing to help her.

She would have to face Luke alone sooner or later. She pondered for a moment before walking out of the office.

Rather than facing Luke alone at home, it was better to face him in the office. At least he would assess the situation and not do anything crazy to her.

Luca thought for a moment and knocked on Luke's office door.

“Come in.” Luke’s voice came from the other side of the door.

Luca pushed the door open and saw the man busy with his work. She took a deep breath and entered the office. “Mr. Crawford, I came to get my laptop and folders.”

“They’re here.” Luke pointed at the edge of his office desk without lifting his head.

Luca nodded, picked up her things, and was ready to leave.

“I need to talk to you,” said Luke.

Luca paused, then closed her eyes. She could not run away from him, so she had no choice but to listen. “Yes, Mr. Crawford?”

“I’ll be busy for the time being and I’d like to take the apartment back. It’ll be more convenient for me to get to work and back,” said Luke.

Luca was stunned. Was he taking back the apartment?

She did not think it mattered to her. She would just have to move back to her previous apartment. The journey to the office would be longer, but it was not a big deal.

“Alright. I’ll go home and pack today. I’ll move out tomorrow,” said Luca as complex emotions rose in her heart.

Was Luke kicking her out of the apartment?

Why would he do that? Was it because she did not give him a clear answer last night? Was that the reason he did not plan to persist in pursuing her?

If she moved back to her apartment now, Abel would know about it and he would think that she had failed her mission. She knew exactly what she would have to face later.

“I can’t get used to sleeping on the maid’s bed. That’s why I want the apartment back. I’ve prepared another place for you. It’s not far away from the office.” Luke continued to look at the screen. He was working and implementing his plan at the same time.

“Ah? Mr. Crawford, why don’t you move there, then?” Luca asked. It was troublesome for her to move here and there.

Luke stopped working and lifted his head to look at her with his gloomy eyes. “My clothes and daily necessities are all in the apartment. I’m asking you to move out of the apartment so that I can save my time. As for your belongings, I’ll get a professional moving service to pack your things for you. You need not worry about it. Your things will be moved to the new place.”

Luca listened to him. What he meant was that he refused to let her move back to the previous apartment and she had to move out of the current apartment too.

She nodded and readily agreed to what he said. “Alright, Mr. Crawford.”

No matter what his arrangements were, he would not use ‘working overtime' as an excuse to stay with her in the future anymore.

The distance between them would not grow too close either. Besides, the place she was moving to belonged to Luke too. She could still lie to Abel so that he would not be in a rush to take any action.

Luke said, "You may leave if there's nothing else. I'll send your new accommodation's address to you later."

“Okay, Mr. Crawford.” Luca only nodded her head and agreed to what he said.

When she turned around carrying the laptop and folders in her arms, she heard the man say, “I’m going back to Crawford Manor tonight. You don’t have to prepare my portion for tonight’s dinner and tomorrow’s breakfast.”

“Alright…” Luca left the office after that.

She heard Luke coughing again when she closed the door.
