Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1835

Luke looked at her deeply. He knew that Luca was smiling like that because Nina was happy.

He did not misunderstand. He just nodded slightly and walked out of the office.

Percy may seem cold, but he had a romantic side when he was with Nina.

If he did not know the details, he would likely have gotten jealous of Percy for making Luca smile like that.

Luca watched Luke leave. She touched her chin and wondered why he walked over.

‘Is there work for me to do? If yes, he could’ve easily called me to notify me. But he came in and left without talking about work?’

Luca was puzzled.

When Luke returned to the office, he remembered why he went to look for Luca just now. He was in a daze thinking about how her smile was not for him, so he was so annoyed that he even forgot that he was there to talk to her about something.

He was a little embarrassed to walk back to her office, so he picked up his phone and texted Luca.

[Dinner at the Royal Crown Hotel tonight at seven.] He pressed ‘send’. Jack Norman had requested the meeting.

After he found out that Luca was Bianca, he mentioned that he wanted to chat with Luca alone, which was why he organized this dinner.

Luca received Luke's text and wondered why he was asking her out for dinner.

‘Will I be eating alone with Luke? Or is there another occasion?’

Luca carefully replied: [Mr. Crawford, are we eating alone?]

[It’s a business meeting.] Luke did not tell her that Jack would be there.

Luca breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was a business meeting. She was fine as long as she did not have to eat with Luke alone.

His aura was strong. Even though she had changed over the years, she still felt uneasy facing the man she loved. After all, she was using a strange identity to spend time with the man.

The previous touches and memories would pop up in her mind when she was alone with Luke, making it impossible for her to face him comfortably.

After work hours.

Luke did not work overtime for the first time in a long time. He packed up his documents and went to Luca's office.

Since he had informed her in advance, Luca happened to be putting on her coat when he walked in. When she saw Luke, she subconsciously got nervous and asked, "Mr. Crawford, is it a formal occasion? Do I need to change and dress up?"

Since Luke had not told her much, she was particularly cautious.

Luke shook his head and said, "You look fine. It's just a business dinner."

Luca calmed down when she heard what he said. ‘It’s just business dinner, so that's fine. I’m not going as Luke's female companion but as his assistant.’

"I'm ready to go." She picked up the briefcase which contained the documents that she planned to work on at night.

Luke nodded and said, "Let's go."

Luca nodded and followed behind Luke calmly while keeping an arm's distance.

When they were about to reach the elevator, she looked back. ‘It’s a business dinner, so why isn’t Jason coming?’

Luke pressed the elevator button and happened to see Luca turning back. He reminded her coldly, saying, "Look ahead when you walk."

Luca was startled, turned around, and found that she was very close to Luke.

While she was thinking about why Jason did not have to follow along, she had unconsciously gotten so close to Luke. It would just take a few more steps for her to touch Luke’s back…

"Sorry, Mr. Crawford." She lowered her head, knowing that he hated it when others touched him without his consent.
