Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1892

"Right now, we don’t have any way to help father but to wait for him to settle it himself," said Lanie. Forcing Luca to stay back would only make her feel suspicious.

However, Luke could only use the excuse of staying back for work and not returning for only a day or two.

Lanie's small face which was similar to Luke became serious but deep in his heart, he was praying hard, hoping their father would think of a way to comfort Luca soon.

At night, after the kids had dinner, they completed their remaining homework.

Luca checked on their works and imitated Luke's signature to sign their homework. Then, she accompanied the kids to watch cartoons while she worked.

It was still manageable for her to look after the kids while working.

Fortunately, the kids were obedient and just sat still to watch their cartoons. When it was time for advertisement, they would eat fruits and drink their water, not intending to disturb her.

It went on till 10 o'clock at night. Luca looked at the clock and looked at the entrance.

It was dead silence outside. It seemed that Luke was not going to return home.

'He must have predicted I will leave so he used such a method.

'However, this method can only be used for one or two days. It's impossible for him not to return home for the long term. After all, the kids are at home, and he will be worried.

'In the end, I'll still have to leave. What's the point of him trying his best to deny it?'

"Ms. Luca?" Tommy waved his hand and looked at her with big eyes, feeling sad within him. 'Why is she daydreaming? Is she thinking of our father?'

Luca snapped out and looked at the kids. "What's wrong?"

"The cartoon is over, Ms. Luca. We will be heading up to take a bath," Tommy said.

"Alright. If you wash your hair, make sure to dry it," Luca said and saved the data on her laptop, and kept her documents.

After the kids went upstairs, she followed them as well.

After the kids were done bathing, Luca wished them all good night and continued heading back to her bedroom to work.

She was focusing on her work while continued paying attention to the commotion outside.

On the other hand, Percy and Jim kept shaking their head and looked at the drunken Luke.

Luke had already drunk three bottles of liquor. No matter how good liquor was, it would be a waste if he just chugged it; there would be no point.

"It's already the fourth bottle. If you continue drinking like that, you might as well just drink beer. It won't cost as much, and we can't take turns drinking it. It won't be a waste of money and it makes you drunk easily," Jim teased while having one leg over the other, picking up a glass of red wine and counting the number of bottles Luke had drunk, bored.

He would not be bothered about the liquors drank as he was not the one who would be paying for it.

He thought to himself. 'This is interesting.'

All this while, Luke was a rationale guy. After so many years, Jim was still able to see Luke get drunk because of a woman and he found it interesting.

Besides, this time, it seemed like he was left with no other options.

Percy lifted his eyebrows, teasing Luke as well, "I also didn't expect you'll be unable to hold back your anger."
