Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1918

Luca came to the door of the tea room and pushed the door open. The fragrance of tea immediately wafted out from inside the room.

When Old Master Crawford saw them, he said, “You guys are back. Come in quickly.”

Luca looked at the old master’s friendly smile and could guess that he did not have the intention of causing trouble for her. She nodded her head and pushed Luke into the tea room.

Luke looked at the old man, then at the tea set on the table.

"Why are you here, Grandpa?" Luke asked. Not only did he turn up, but he even brought his tea leaves.

Old Master Crawford saw Luca meticulously stepping down on the wheel locks and nodded with a delightful smile. He turned around to look at Luke. "Of course, I’m here to visit you. I heard that you were discharged today, so I came to visit. So, how are things? What did the doctor say? How did you even end up in a wheelchair?"

Luke looked at his leg and briefly answered, "It’s nothing."

"If you're alright, why are you in a wheelchair, then? Luca, you tell me. What did the doctor say about Luke?" Old Master Crawford asked.

"Old Master, the doctor said it's just a simple fracture. It's not a big issue. He’ll be fine as long as he keeps the cast on for a month.” The old master would be too worried if she mentioned the fact that Luke had a hemorrhage in his head, hence she did not reveal that.

Luke lowered his eyes as he listened to Luca. He was delighted.

She was handling the situation with great detail.

Although his hemorrhage was fake, her worry for him was genuine. If she told Old Master Crawford the truth, he would definitely worry and Luke would have to explain it to him.

The way she phrased it had saved him lots of trouble.

"Fracture…" Old Master Crawford sighed deeply and looked at Luke with a critical gaze while shaking his head.

"What's wrong, Grandpa?" Luca thought it was because the old master was dissatisfied. After all, Luke’s injury was still related to Luca.

If it were not for her, the man who had always been rational would not have gotten drunk and encountered an accident.

"Nothing. I'm just thinking about how the grand young master of the Crawford family would have to be in a wheelchair for one whole month. It’s rather hilarious.” Old Master Crawford teased his grandson.

Up until yesterday, he had never thought of Luke as someone who would easily fall in love. He had always been under the assumption that his love was only reserved for Bianca.

However, from the current looks of it, things might be different from what he initially thought. It appeared that Luke was able to develop feelings for other women.

Take, for example, Luca.

"Grandpa." Luke put on a dark expression as he listened to the old man’s teasing. Did his grandfather come all the way here just to tease him?

Old Master Crawford really knew his grandson well. Just by looking at Luke’s face, he knew he was unable to take the joke. The old master picked up a cup of tea and took a sip of it. He then asked, "Do you two want to have some? They’re tea leaves that I brought from the manor. They were freshly picked.”

"No thanks, Old Master." Luca shook her head. Her wound was still inflamed, so she could not drink tea.

As for Luke, he did not make a sound.

Old Master Crawford looked at his grandson. "Why don’t I pour you a cup of tea?"

"Old Master, it’s unsuitable for Mr. Crawford to drink tea given his current condition. He has to take his medications after this,” Luca said.

Old Master Crawford nodded. "You're right. Looking at Luke's overly energetic appearance made me forget that his leg is injured.”

"Is there a reason behind your visit?” Luke felt as though his grandfather was just here to tease him. Hence, he was very upset at the moment.
