Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1840

Queenie noticed that Jack was reluctant to continue talking about the subject. Besides, it seemed like Jack had changed his attitude toward Luca. Queenie was worried about it.

She was worried that something was going on with Bianca and Jack was choosing to avoid talking about it as he did not want to trigger her emotions.

Queenie thought it would be better not to say another word when she saw Jack already lying on the bed.

…

The following day.

Luca followed Luke’s car back to the office. She let out a sigh when there was no one around and pushed the car door open calmly.

"Thank you, Mr. Crawford." Luca got out of the car right away after she thanked Luke.

Since staying in the same villa as Luke, Luca had no reason to reject his offer to give her a ride to and back from the office as it was indeed convenient.

After all, they had to be in the office at the same time. Luca would personally prepare breakfast for the children. She would leave for work after that, but Luke would already be awake by then.

Hence, Luca could only pray that she would not run into her colleagues when she got out of Luke’s car.

Luke shook his head helplessly as he watched Luca trot away. He unfastened his seat belt and got out of the car leisurely.

Did Luca think that she would be able to distance herself from him this way?

That was impossible.

Luca belonged to him, and she would be Mrs. Crawford forever.

Luca let out a sigh of relief when she got into the elevator. Luke did not catch up to her. They were far away from each other, and no one else would have seen them.

She did not return to her office right away. Instead, she headed to the lab and hosted an early meeting.

Her research project was already coming to an end, and her product would soon be mass-produced before being sold on the market. Therefore, no mistakes were allowed to happen now.

Rhett saw Luca walking into the lab. He quickly handed her the meeting agenda. “Dr. Craw, this is today’s meeting agenda.”

Luca took it from Rhett and nodded. “Let me return to my office and take a look at it. We’ll hold the meeting in 15 minutes.”

While Rhett was secretly exclaiming at how quickly Luca could read the agenda, he handed another document folder to her. “Dr. Craw, this one’s for you too.”

“What’s this?” Luca took it from him curiously.

"Ms. Stone passed it to me last night. She reminded me again and again to make sure I hand this to you," answered Rhett. Luca had moved houses, and she did not update her latest address in the company's employee information. Hence, they did not know where she was staying now.

Mo Stone had no choice but to pass the folder to Rhett.

Luca was startled for a moment when she heard Mo’s name. It must be Dr. Albus’ folder.

Did they face difficulties in their research again?

“Dr. Craw, what is it?” Rhett asked cautiously. Mo had reminded him before that the folder contained important information, so no one was allowed to read it.

“It’s Dr. Albus’ research,” replied Luca as she headed back to her office.

15 minutes later, Luca finished reading the meeting agenda and went to attend the meeting. Luca did not go upstairs immediately after she assigned tasks and handled matters that needed her attention. Instead, she sat in the lab and began to study the document folder that Dr. Albus had sent to her.

He had encountered another small issue with his research again.

Luca read through the data attentively and found out where the problem was. She was puzzled. If Dr. Albus had observed this carefully and spent more time dealing with this problem, he would have been able to solve this himself.

At this point, it was as though he intended to let her see the experiment’s results.

Luca’s heart sank. Judging from Dr. Albus’ capability, this was a problem that he could have solved if he had just spent more time on it. He did not have to come to look for her. The arrangements he made seemed to be intentional.
