Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1769

Tommy listened to the conversation between the adults and came to assist, saying, "Daddy, Ms. Luca, don't worry. I promise that I’ll be good and listen to the cleaning lady, Lanie, and Rainie. I’ll be waiting for you to come home!"

Luca nodded and said, "Okay."

Luke walked into the opposite room and said, "Give me five minutes. I have to change."

"Mm." Luca nodded.

Tommy took her hand and whispered, "Ms. Luca, you have to follow closely behind Daddy when you’re out."

"Why?" Luca was intrigued. She crouched down and looked at the child.

"It's dangerous and there are many people out there! Only by following Daddy closely can he keep you safe!" Tommy touched the top of her head as she did to him previously. "Ms. Luca, you’re my favorite person. You have to keep yourself safe.”

Luca was not sure how to feel. Tommy was so young but he already learned to say such things. She looked at the serious look in his eyes and nodded. "I will."

Luke changed his clothes, opened the bedroom door, and raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw their interaction.

Luca subconsciously stood up.

"Daddy, you must protect Ms. Luca when you’re outside. Don't let bad guys take her away!" Tommy nagged them like a little old man.

"I'll protect her. Don't worry." Luke looked at the child, the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He could not help but smile.

"Don't worry about us. You should leave now so you can come back early. I want Ms. Luca to tell me a story before I go to bed," Tommy said. He then went downstairs with his coloring book.

Luca followed behind Tommy.

Seeing that she did not say anything, Luke was not bothered and went downstairs with them.

After he explained the situation to the kids, Luke left with Luca and drove her to the hospital.

The atmosphere in the car was silent, and Luca's nerves were tense. She felt a little uncomfortable every time she was in such a small space with Luke.

She was worried that her thoughts would be seen through by him.

Luca clasped her hands together, thought about it for a while, and broke the silence. “Uh, is there enough evidence to charge Pierre now?"

She was worried that this time would be the same as the last, where Pierre paid off some people and got away with it.

"Yes," Luke said, "The villa where Nina was held captive belongs to Pierre's mother, which was why no matter how deep Percy dug before, he didn’t find anything. He didn't take this into account."

‘If the villa is owned by his mother, I’m sure Mr. Mallory wouldn’t dare to act rashly. If Madam Mallory is involved, this will be a difficult matter to handle. Madam Mallory has always disliked Nina. If Mr. Mallory involves her because of this, the Mallory family's impression of Nina may worsen.’ Luca was worried. On the one hand, she hoped that Pierre would get the punishment he deserved, but on the other hand, she hoped that Nina could find her happiness.

However, it would be difficult for Nina to be happy with Percy. If she wanted to pursue Pierre because of this matter, she may annoy Madam Mallory. At that time, if she wanted to get the support of the Mallory family to be with Percy, Luca was afraid it would be impossible.

"Percy will take care of it," Luke replied.

Luca looked at him suspiciously and asked, "What do you mean by that? Does Mr. Mallory have another way?"

"He received an anonymous phone call, and after he found out that the villa belonged to his mother, he started gathering evidence. When he entered the villa, the maid admitted to him that Pierre made her do all of it. Even if the maid wants to flip her statement, it’ll be impossible," Luke said.

Luca nodded. Although he said that it was unlikely that the maid would change her statement, it was still possible with the intervention of the Mallory family. Even if they have a recording of her confession, the police station would still acquit Pierre and say that he was framed.

When she thought of that, Luca felt that she still had to rely on the strength of the Island of Despair to deal with Pierre.

However, those from the Island of Despair were not moving fast enough...
