Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1957

"Is that so..." Luca frowned slightly. He still wanted to attend the event even though he was injured.

"I don't feel comfortable handing the task over to others for important occasions as such," Luke said. He finished the warm water and put it on the table.

Luca looked at his cast and said, "But your leg..."

"Start packing. You’ll be going on a business trip with me," Luke said. Not only was he going, but she was going too.

If he had to go by himself, it was impossible for him to find out who was controlling Luca when he had to face so many bidders.

Luca felt awkward. "I'm going too?"

"I need someone to take care of me. You’re more attentive compared to Jason. Do you have any objections?" Luke asked.

"No, I’m fine with the arrangement." Luca shook her head. ‘Am I allowed to say no? Of course not.’

Even if the wound on her waist had not healed, she could not say anything. Since Luke asked, she could only say yes...

"Get ready. We’ll leave next week." Luke finished speaking and looked away.

Luca replied with a hum and walked out of the room.

The maid had not gotten off work yet. She was cleaning the living room.

Luca glanced at the time and said, “It's getting late. You should get off work."

"I'll get off work after cleaning this table." The maid looked at her. She thought of Luke's dangerous behavior just now and said, "Ms. Craw, I saw you helping Mr. Crawford upstairs today."

"Yeah." Luca nodded. She knew what she was going to say. She thought to herself that a maid who was as responsible as her was rare.

"That's too dangerous. If he wants to go upstairs, you can call me. I can carry him upstairs," the maid said.

"Mr. Crawford wanted to put some private documents in his safe, so that's why he did that. There should be no next time," Luca said. She watched as the maid finished cleaning the table and urged her, "The rest can be done tomorrow. The later it is, the colder it gets.”

Only if the maid got off work could she confidently go into Luke’s room to get the document.

"That’s true. I'll get off work, then." The maid smiled and walked into the kitchen with the rag.

Luca did not go upstairs immediately. She waited for the maid to come out of the kitchen and leave the villa before she slowly went upstairs.

As she went up the stairs, her legs were shaking.

Tonight, she was going to do one more thing that would hurt Luke...

Although she was reluctant, she still reached the top of the stairs. The moment she stepped onto the second floor, Luca looked toward the corridor.

It was a matter that had to be done sooner or later. She could not risk Nyla's life.

"Luke, I'm sorry. I’m doing this for our daughter..." After she apologized softly, Luca walked into Luke's bedroom.

The door opened with a click. At the same time, the surveillance screen on Luke's side also lit up.

He watched Luca walk toward the safe in silence and with a complicated expression. ‘She’s going after the bidding document…’

Luca walked to the safe. The first was the twist combination lock, where four digits made up the passcode. She thought about it, entered her birthday, and it showed an input error...

It was not her birthday?

Luca was stunned. Then, she entered her birth year. With a click, the lock was unlocked.

She pursed her lips. If she guessed correctly, the second password should be her birthday.
