Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1929

Luke's words made Jack determined. "I’ve been considering a position for transfer recently and Enoch was shortlisted. I know what to do."

Jack considered that Enoch was a local, and his whole family was involved in local politics.

Even though he was on the dispatch list, he was still thinking about whether to transfer him.

However, Jack did not have any second thoughts now. He decided to transfer Enoch.

Enoch had no one to blame. After all, as a father, Jack had done very little for Bianca. He had to do something for her now.

Moreover, Enoch's transfer was also a promotion. It was good for his future development.

"Yeah." Luke did not say anything after he heard Jack's answer. He knew that Jack would do what was necessary.

When he was about to hang up the phone, Jack checked in on how he was doing. "By the way, Luke, are you okay?"

"It wasn't great at first, but she's by my side and I’m fine now." Luke's words made Jack smile.

Luke did not express much love for Bianca in front of him, but this sentence was enough to show the place that Bianca held in his heart.

"That’s great to hear. Your mother-in-law and I will visit you another day," Jack said.

"It’s alright. I'll visit you two with her another day. Father-in-law, I still have work to do. I'll have to hang up," Luke said.

"Okay." Jack hung up the phone too.

He walked out of the study and saw Leia standing not far from the door. His expression darkened as he shouted, "Were you eavesdropping?"

"I didn't. Dad, your study door was closed. How could I have eavesdropped..." Leia showed a flattering smile, but there was slight awkwardness.

She wanted to eavesdrop, but the soundproofing was too good, so she could not hear anything.

She only heard him calling Luke's name.

Hence, the person who called him was Luke, not a civil servant.

‘Why did he say it was a work call?’

Luke was in business, while Jack was in politics. The two should have no working relationship.

"What are you doing here, then?" Jack's expression was still stern. After he realized that Leia was not responsible, he had no feelings toward her.

The reason why he did not sever their father-daughter relationship was that Queenie was reluctant.

"I'm here to check in on you, Dad. You've been upstairs for so long, so I wanted to ask you to come down to have some fruits." Leia showed a well-behaved look, but it was useless against Jack.

He went straight downstairs.

Leia glanced at the study and followed him.

Queenie was sitting on the sofa and watched them walk down the stairs one after the other. She raised a gentle smile and asked with concern, "Were you talking about something that I can’t know about?"

Jack glanced at Leia, walked over to Queenie, and sat down. "There’s nothing that you can’t know about.”

"Well, I don’t know." Queenie laughed cheekily.
