Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1785

“I’m uncertain about that.” Luca tightened her grip on the sink, refusing to obey such orders.

"If you don't do it, I won’t mind destroying Luke Crawford right away." Abel threatened her. "Do you think I have no choice but to sit here and wait for you to do it? Ivana, I've been making arrangements the whole time you’re carrying out your missions. Do you really think that I don't know what you're up to?"

Luca was in despair. Abel had probably obtained more information about T Corporation.

However, he did not deal with Luke right away. He thought it would be more interesting to see Luke and Luca ruin each other.

Luca's fingers grasped the marble top, and she said angrily, "I'll try my best, but I can't guarantee I’ll succeed. The place is heavily guarded."

"Heavily guarded? That's for outsiders. It can't be more convenient for you to stroll in and out of there easily. Ivana, if you try to fool me again, just wait for the day I lose all my patience. By then, you can only watch helplessly as the man you love falls from the glorious altar!" Abel made it very clear.

Indeed, Luke was standing on the altar now. No one knew what would happen to him if he fell from it one day.

Abel was excited at the thought of it.

He looked forward to seeing Luke fall from the top of the food chain to the lowest ranks. He wanted him to experience that pain…

Luca clenched her fists. “There’s no way I can return to the pharmaceutical company now.”

"Don't worry, you'll get the chance soon. You’d better get things done for me when the time comes." Abel hung up the phone after that.

Luca listened to the busy tone from the other side of the phone. The last sentence that Abel said to her confirmed that there were people from the Island of Despair working in Watson Biopharmaceuticals.

That was what a devious person like him would do.

To deal with Luke and ruin him, Abel would never rely on her alone.

Luca’s hands could not help but tremble at the thought of Abel’s pawns who might have been arranged to work at Watson Biopharmaceuticals and T Corporation.

What should she do?

What could she do to make Luke realize that his working environment was not as peaceful as he thought? How should she tell him that there was looming danger everywhere around him?

“Ms. Luca? Ms. Luca?” Rainie’s voice came from the bedroom.

Luca snapped back to her senses and turned off the tap. She pushed the door open and exited the washroom. “What’s wrong, Rainie?”

Rainie looked at her with her bright and beautiful eyes. “Ms. Luca, am I disturbing you?”

"No, you're not. What's the matter?" Luca concealed her complicated feelings. Rainie had inherited her attentiveness from her. If she showed a hint of uneasiness on her face, the child would most certainly notice it.

The cruelty of the adult world should not affect the children.

Rainie took the initiative to hold Luca’s hand.

Luca felt something being stuffed into her palm. She lowered her head and looked at it. It was candy.

“Is this…” She looked at the child, puzzled.

"Ms. Luca, you gave this to me back then," said Rainie. "Even though you haven’t said anything about it, I can sense that you’re feeling troubled. I don't know what's troubling you, but Mommy told us that we should eat sweet candy when we're feeling upset. Everything will be better after that!"

Luca stared at the child and glanced at the candy in her hand. She asked, "Rainie, do you miss your mother?"

"Yes. I miss Mommy every single day, but we know she has her own reasons, so we don't blame her for leaving us." Rainie looked at Luca with a determined look in her eyes.

Did they all think so?

"Ms. Luca, we're still young. We don't know much about the complicated world of adults, but we like you very much. I hope you won't be mad at us if we've done anything wrong. We want you always to be by our sides." Rainie took the initiative to hold Luca’s hand.
