Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1910

However, Luke's hands were clutching tightly onto her waist.

'He did it on purpose…'

Luca pursed her lips. Accidents could easily occur at such a distance. Her throat was burning, and it took her great effort to speak. "Let go of me, Mr. Crawford. I have to get up. Only then can you…"

As she was speaking, she was trying to free herself from Luke’s hands.

Even though he was not willing to let her go, Luke ultimately still did. He did not want to push her too hard and have her keep a bigger distance from him.

After all, Luca had made great improvements in other skills throughout the years. Her instinct to escape had gotten better as well.

She belonged to him. Even if he had to be patient, he had to have her.

Luke let go of her, and Luca felt the grip around her waist loosen. She let out a breath of relief. She placed her hands on the bed and used them to support her as she attempted to get up.

At that moment, the door was pushed open.

Johann came in and saw Luca on top of Luke's body. He shrieked in an exaggerated tone, "Oh my, I'm sorry! Am I interfering in you two’s activity?"

Luca heard Johann's words, and her face went scarlet as she immediately got up. She took a deep breath and looked at Johann, who had turned his back to them. Feeling helpless, she explained, "Dr. Park. I accidentally tripped over and it was Mr. Crawford who held onto me. It's not like what you think."

Johann did not turn around and just waved his hand behind him as he said, "I got it. Do you guys want to continue? Why don’t I leave first?"

"Dr. Park!" Luca could hear a teasing tone in his words. She became shy and felt helpless. "I've already stood up."

Johann slowly turned around, and seeing that both their clothes were tidy, he cleared his throat and winked at Luke who was slowly sitting up. "I'm so sorry, buddy. I didn't know you were in the midst of it."

"Dr. Park!' Luca's face became even redder when she heard Johann's teasing tone.

Johann knew Luca was shy and did not tease her anymore. He waved his hands and said seriously, "Alright, I'll get down to business. Have you experienced any discomfort since this afternoon?”

"Nope." Luke sat on the bed and lifted his leg that was in a cast.

Johann's eyes glittered when he looked at the drawings on the cast. He went forward to examine it. "Tsk, tsk, tsk. Those three kids of yours are quite good at drawing Just look at these colorful colors. It's so nice to look at."

Luke picked up the blanket from the side and immediately covered it.

Johann saw that Luke’s complexion looked dark. He put away the smile on his face and continued talking about the serious matter at hand, “If you don’t experience any discomfort tomorrow, do you want to be discharged?”

"He's able to be discharged so soon?" Luca was astonished. She thought that Luke would still have to stay in the hospital for a few more days for observation.

Johann nodded and thought back to the lie he told Luca. He slowly twisted his words, saying, "Even though there’s some bleeding, his condition isn't too serious overall. Tomorrow, we'll do another CT brain scan. And if there’s nothing wrong, he may go home and recuperate. The most important thing is that he's no longer bleeding and there’s no serious problem. The hospital is facing a shortage of wards, so we have to free some up.”

"Free some wards?" Luke squinted his eyes. He wanted to stay in the ward and continue to enjoy Luca's care.

"Yes. We have to free a ward for a politician. He has an appointment for an operation. Hence, the director of the hospital asked me to come over to discuss this with you. After all, out of all the patients on this floor, you’re the patient with the least serious condition,” Johann explained helplessly. He could figure that Luke was enjoying Luca's care.

However, it would not be easy to fool the director. If he personally came here to talk with Luke, it would be troublesome if Luke found out Johann was deceiving him.

Hence, Johann rushed back to the hospital even though it was late at night.
