Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1927

Seeing that the gauze was stable even with the weight of his leg, Luca breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Luke who was sitting in the bathtub and said, "Mr. Crawford, have a nice shower. I'll be waiting outside the door."

"Mm," Luke nodded. Although it was a bit awkward to take a shower like this, it was a better option than wiping his body with a wet cloth.

Luca left the bathroom and closed the door for him. She did not lock it from the inside because she would have to come in later.

The maid came over and asked softly, "Ms. Craw, are you done?"

"Yes, somewhat. Getting Mr. Crawford out of the bathroom after his shower is a big task," Luca said. After Luke was done, she would first drain the water from the bathtub so that his injury would not risk getting wet.

If he deliberately did not wear a bathrobe...

Luca's face warmed at the thought that she might see something she should not.

"I'll stay and wait for Mr. Crawford to finish his bath." The maid was worried that Luca would not be able to do it alone.

After the maid said that, Luca noticed that it was time for the maid to get off work. The weather outside today was not the best. It might snow. She said, "It's getting late. I can deal with it alone, so you should head home and be with your family."

"What about…" The maid hesitated.

Luca knew that Luke did not like to be seen by other people in a state like that. Even if the maid was here, he might end up ordering her to wait outside. There was nothing the maid could contribute if that was the case.

She said, "I can do it alone. I have experience in caring for others. Don’t worry."

"Okay, I'll head home, then." Seeing that Luca was insistent, the maid decided to get off work.

Luca thought that Luke would probably wash his hair, so she said, "By the way, is there a hairdryer downstairs? Can you help me find it?"

"It's for guests. I'll find it for you." The maid nodded, turned around, and walked out of the maid's room. After a while, she returned with a hairdryer and said, "Ms. Craw, I'll put the hairdryer on the table."

"Okay. Get home safe," Luca said.

The maid smiled warmly and nodded. "Ms. Craw, you’re so kind. See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow." Luca nodded.

After the maid left, she was the only one left in the bedroom. She heard the sound of water in the bathroom.

Luca figured that Luke had turned on the showerhead.

She glanced at the documents on the desk, which were all about the project...

Abel's words rang in her ears.

Luca clenched her fist. She knew that it was a crucial point for the project. The designs should have been decided...

She could not make up her mind whether to steal them...

Luca took a deep breath, clenched her fists, and looked away. She could not do it and could only drag it out.

It was difficult to divert her attention, so she grabbed her phone and scrolled through relevant information about what she had been drugged with.

Half an hour later, Luke's voice came from the bathroom. "I'm done."

Luca put the phone back in her pocket and approached the bathroom door. When she was about to open it, she suddenly remembered that Luke might not be wearing any clothes. She stopped and asked, "Mr. Crawford, are you dressed?"

Luke, who was sitting in the bathtub, raised his eyebrows. ‘If I’m not dressed, she won’t come in?’

She acted as if their relationship never existed even though she had given birth to three of their children...

"No. What should I do?" Luke asked.

Luca found it a little hard to breathe. If she opened the door and went in without thinking, she would see a PG-18 scene.
