Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2011

"I won't let you take the risk without a reasonable explanation," Luke said. Her complexion was doing much better, so he believed that she could participate in the meeting.

Jason was caught between them. He did not dare to breathe loudly for fear of being screamed at by either one of them.

Luca took a deep breath and quickly thought of a reason that could explain everything. "I was caught up with work and didn't pay much attention to the wound. It was infected with a type of fungus, but this fungus isn’t ordinary. It took me some time to figure out what it was. I wrote a prescription for myself but forgot to bring it to Russia."

She did not take medicine in time, which caused the wound to be inflamed.

"What caused your wound?" Luke asked. If she gave him a reason, whatever it was, he would agree to let her attend the meeting.

He estimated that the meeting would not take too long as it was only an announcement of the results.

"I was robbed when I went to Amur's house. I resisted and got stabbed twice," Luca said.

Luke's expression was ashen. He did not believe her reason. It was only possible that the person hurt Luca when she was unguarded.

The person who could hurt her when she was unprepared must be someone familiar to her. He could be sure that the person who hurt her was not Amur.

Regardless, she had given him an explanation.

Moreover, he could launch an investigation in this direction.

"Pack up and let’s get ready to go," Luke said.

Luca breathed a sigh of relief. She was glad that he agreed.

"Mr. Crawford, I'll go back to the room to get ready." She stood up, glanced at Luke, and walked back to her room.

Jason glanced at the time, it was almost time. He deliberately wore casual clothes to buy breakfast to prevent his clothes from smelling like breakfast. He was still wearing casual clothes and had to change into a suit.

"Boss, I need to change as well," he said.

"Clear the table and go," Luke said as he maneuvered the wheelchair back to his room.

Jason looked at the two closed doors and sighed. He felt unlucky. Luca was injured, so he had to run errands now. It did not matter to him. He had to eat, after all.

However, when it came to cleaning...

The hotel had cleaning staff, so these plates could be left untouched. The place would likely be cleaned thoroughly after they got back from the meeting.

Unfortunately, his boss was obsessed with cleanliness. The longer the leftovers were kept on the table, the stronger the smell would be in the suite. As such, the mess had to be cleaned immediately.

Jason looked at the bag on the table and shook his head. ‘Things would be different if these weren’t takeaways.’

If Luca had cooked the food, it would be fine even if it stank and rotted on the table because his boss favored Luca.

Jason tossed the packaging into the trash before he left.

In the room.

Luca changed into the suit she prepared beforehand. It was a slim fit but did not emphasize the gauze wrapped around her waist too much. She had always been petite, so even if she was wrapped in gauze and wearing such slim-fitting clothes, she did not appear plump.

She put on makeup.
