Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2024

"Brother Luke, it'd be better for you to stay here." Vivian stopped Luke immediately. It made no sense to ask a guest to help catch an intruder. "Trust Ray. He can handle this well. Besides, the villa is more than a hundred years old. The person who broke in will get lost easily even if he has the map. And your leg is still injured. We should stay here."

Luca went along with Vivian’s words and said, "Mr. Crawford, I think we shouldn't cause any trouble for Mr. Ray."

Luke slightly frowned. Although the current situation did not look too good, Luke could feel Luca’s love for him.

She was concerned about him…

Luke stared at Luca for a while. It was indeed inconvenient for him to go look for Ray now. He could only come up with a few ideas for Ray, but he could not be of much help.

Ray would still have to ask someone to protect him if something happened.

His staying here would not cause any trouble for Ray, and he could also make sure that Luca was within his sight…

Luke decided at once and nodded. "Let's go in."

Vivian and Jason let out a sigh of relief, but it was obvious that Luca was the one who felt the most relaxed now.

They walked into the room together.

Vivian asked her security guards to come into the room too. Then, she closed the door and locked it carefully.

Vivian glanced at her phone and said, “Ray will call me if there’s any news. Don’t worry.”

“Alright. Thank you,” Luke nodded and said.

Vivian felt embarrassed. She said, “Brother Luke, don’t mention it. I invited you to spend the night here, but something like this happened. You couldn’t even sleep well. I’m really sorry for what happened.”

“They’re probably after me,” said Luke. Otherwise, why would they choose to break into Ray’s house tonight?

Although the underworld scene in Russia was in a mess, why would they choose tonight, when the group of them was staying over, to make a move?

Luca fell silent when she heard what Luke said.

There was a chance that they were after Luke, but the only person who was after him was Abel.

However, if Abel was behind this, he would not have called her to ask about it just now.

Therefore, Luca thought it was not Abel.

Luke had not offended anyone in Russia. If it was because he won the bid and someone was jealous of him, it was unlikely that those people would break into Ray’s villa just because of that.

After all, Ray’s name was well-known among the underworld organizations in Russia. Who would be willing to mess with him?

As for Pierre Mallory…

No matter how capable he was with the Mallory family supporting him, he would not be foolish enough to mess with Ray now.

Luca remained silent as she was secretly analyzing what was going on. This probably had nothing to do with her and Luke.

There was dead silence in the bedroom. The guards were keeping a close eye on the door, preventing anyone from breaking into the room.

Although they were in the safest place, everyone was nervous while listening to the noises outside. No one even dared to make a sound.

Half an hour later, the noises out there got even louder. Vivian went closer to the door, trying to figure out what they were talking about outside.

Those people were talking in Russian. Although Luca understood Russian, the soundproofing was too good. In her eyes, the voices kept breaking up. After a while, the noises got softer. Luca reckoned that the matter should have ended.

It was either Ray had caught the person who broke in, or that person had already escaped.

After a while, Vivian’s phone rang.

“It’s Ray.” Vivian glanced at the phone and told everyone. Then, she answered the call, “Ray, how is it?”

“I caught him. Everyone can come out now,” said Ray.
