Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1780

Luca was patient. She waited until the kids had finished talking before replying to each of them. Then, she asked them, “Where’s your daddy?”

Rainie pointed upstairs, “Daddy is upstairs. He’s still working.”

"Alright. Be good. I'm going upstairs to discuss something with him." Luca had bought some chocolate-flavored candies before she came back. She took them out of her pocket and gave two candies to each of them. Then, she headed upstairs.

After what had happened today, she was pretty sure that she would not get into trouble. Still, she had to tell Luke about it.

She walked upstairs to the second floor. Luca directly knocked on his bedroom door. This time, it was not because of her affairs but about Nina and the Mallory family. It had nothing to do with their love matters. Hence, she was able to face him directly.

“Come in.” Luke’s voice came from inside.

Luca pushed the door open and saw that the man was busy with his work. He was typing on the keyboard handling his work. He was not in a meeting, so he was available to talk.

“Mr. Crawford, I’d like to have a word with you. Can you spare me five minutes of your time?” she asked.

"Come in and talk to me. I'm not used to talking to someone from a far distance," Luke said in a cold tone as he glanced at Luca, who was still standing at the door.

Luca was startled for a moment. She told herself that his bedroom was not some bottomless abyss. She walked in.

Luke pointed at the couch beside him and said, “Sit down and talk.”

"There's no need to. It's not really a big deal. It's just that I ran into Pierre when I came out of the hospital just now. I couldn't help but give him a lecture." Luca told him what she did.

Luke frowned and looked at her. “Are you hurt?”

Luca was slightly surprised. He did not blame her or judge her for what she did. Instead, he was concerned about her and asked if she was hurt.

“No. He can’t lay a finger on me,” she answered honestly. The incident last time was merely an accident.

If he had not used dirty tricks to trap her after kidnapping her, she would not have ended up in such a mess.

Luke looked at her from head to toe. He nodded his head after making sure that she was not hurt. “It’d be better to avoid someone like Pierre when you see him next time.”

Luca replied, “Alright.”

She knew that she would have to face Pierre’s revenge after dealing with him.

He was a petty man. Besides, she could not predict when Pierre would strike again.

“Did you beat him up badly?” Luke asked again. He did not intend to blame her for punishing him by beating him up.

"Perhaps,” Luca replied honestly. It might not be considered serious because there were no wounds on his body. Even if he went for a check-up, the doctor would not be able to tell what was wrong with him. However, she was sure that he would be in pain for a couple of days after she beat him up.

Luke looked at her. What was she talking about?

Luca then explained, "He's going to suffer for the next few days. But there are no wounds on his body, and he won't be able to find out what's wrong with him either."

Luke knew that she must have used her own ways to teach Pierre a lesson.

After all, after what had happened the last time and Nina getting kidnapped by him this time, Luca must be holding a grudge against him.

“Apart from these?” Luke knew there was more to it apart from her teaching Pierre a lesson.

Luca was stunned. How did he know her so well? Yes, there was something else she wanted to talk to him about…

“There’s a recording.” Luca took her phone out and hit the play button.

After Luke finished listening to it, he did not frown. Instead, he said, "The recording—"

The maid saw her and said immediately, “Ms. Luca, the police officers are downstairs. They claim that they’re looking for you.”

Luca was puzzled. Why was the maid outside Luke’s bedroom if they were looking for her?

“Are they downstairs?”

The maid nodded. She instantly stopped Luca when she saw Luca going downstairs. “Ms. Luca, it seems that they’re looking for you because you beat someone up. Why don't you let Mr. Crawford handle this?”

Luca shook her head. She knew the police officers were here because of Pierre’s matter.

She did not expect Pierre to be so shameless. He even called the police after getting beaten up by a woman. Was he not embarrassed to be taught a lesson by a woman?

“It’s not a big deal. I can handle this myself.” Luca did not want to disturb Luke.

She did not leave any wounds on Pierre's body. Hence, there was nothing the police officers could do about this. Even though there were surveillance cameras there, they would still be able to see that Pierre was the one who started it. She was just defending herself.

She did not even leave a wound on his body when she defended herself against him. What could the police officers say?

Luca was preparing to go downstairs to talk with those police officers. Luke's bedroom door was pushed open when she took a step forward.

Luke stared at the maid outside the door, then at Luca, who was not far away from her. He asked, “What happened?”

The maid was worried that she might disturb him if she knocked on the door. That was why she was hesitating outside the door. She immediately told Luke when she saw him, “Mr. Crawford, there are two police officers downstairs. They came to look for Ms. Luca, claiming that Ms. Luca beat someone up. And they want her to cooperate with them in the investigation.”

Luke frowned and turned to look at Luca.

Her expression was calm, and there was not even a trace of fear or worry on her face.
