Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1889

When she heard him saying those words, Luca felt a pinch in her heart.

If she had the chance, she was not willing to be this cruel to Luke either…

Luca lowered her eyes and felt the speed of the car gradually slow down. Luke no longer said a word. It was as if he had calmed down and was not as crazy as before.

However, she could sense the atmosphere becoming much chillier as Luke was no longer saying anything. He just kept everything within himself.

Luca sighed, and her instinct was telling her that this was not the end of it.

The things Luke told her made Luca know that he was serious about her.

It was not just a superficial liking, nor was it because he could not tolerate being lonely. It was just like before when she was Bianca. Being cornered by Luke like this made her feel as though she had returned to the past.

Luca knew that her words were hurtful, but she could not explain herself. She could only pretend as though nothing had happened.

Luke drove the car and arrived at Watson Biopharmaceuticals. Luca immediately unbuckled the seat belt the instant he stopped the car.

She did not want to spend another second being in the car with Luke.

Making things clear between them was much better than if she were to just follow Abel’s order.

Luke's eyes glistened with anger when he saw Luca's swift action. If he found out who it was that made his woman end up in such a situation, he would not let them off the hook.

Luca could not be bothered about work ethics right now and immediately entered Watson Biopharmaceuticals. She still had the access card that Mo previously gave her inside her bag, so she swiped it and entered.

She was not worried about what would happen to Luke even if he did not have the pass. After all, he was the boss of this place. It would only be natural for the security guards to welcome him.

Luca took the elevator and arrived at the office floor. She walked straight into the assistant's office.

Mo saw her and said with a smile, "You're here, Dr. Craw."

"Yeah, we’re supposed to enter the meeting room now, right?" Luca asked.

"Yes. A few professors are already in the meeting room downstairs. I'll head down after I arrange the documents," said Mo. She sneaked a peek behind Luca. "Where's the boss? Didn't he come with you?"

As they both came from the headquarters, Mo thought that they would show up together.

"Mr. Crawford? I think he’ll be here in a few minutes." After saying that, Luca changed the topic. "If that's the case, I'll go downstairs."

"Alright, Dr. Craw." Mo nodded. As she watched Luca leave, she shook her head helplessly. She continued to get the documents ready.

Luca came downstairs and walked into the meeting room. There were already a few professors who had arrived.

Luke had yet to arrive. Perhaps parking the car had delayed his arrival.

"You're here, Dr. Craw."

"Good afternoon, Dr. Craw."

"Hello." Luca nodded when faced with the few professors who greeted her. She noticed there were no name cards placed on the table. Hence, she just sat in the corner.

"Why are you sitting in the corner, Dr. Craw?" Dr. Albus came to her with a radiant look on his face. After today's meeting, he would be able to hand in the paperwork needed for the patent application. He was delighted. Coupled with the fact that Luca had previously helped him out, he treated her warmly.

"It’s the same no matter where I sit. Of course, I'll leave the best seats to the seniors," Luca said. The main reason was that she wanted to avoid Luke.

After the incident earlier, she did not want to be so close to him.

Luca's comment made lots of professors admire her and nod their heads.
