Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 205

"Miss Bea… is that true?" Rainie looked at Bianca with her tearful puppy eyes.

Bianca lowered her head, kissed Rainie's forehead, and tousled her hair. "No, I won't ever think of you as a nuisance."

Perhaps Bianca's tone of voice might have been too serious. Not only was the young girl utterly convinced, but her words had even startled Jason, who was driving.

Jason considered himself a weathered man who had seen all sorts of people, from the noble and mighty to the wretched and despicable, in his many years working with his boss. He thought that he was very well-versed in reading another person's character and could easily tell a truth from a lie.

At that moment, Jason could not sense any hint of untruth in Bianca's words.

He could not help but steal a glance at Bianca through the rearview mirror. For a fleeting instant, he thought that he was looking at the two children's birth mother…

In A City Hospital.

When Old Master Crawford woke up, he did not see his grandson or his two great-grandchildren. Instantly, he began to worry.

Allison went over at the first available moment and tried to plant ideas in the old man's head. "Father, do you want to call Luke and ask him?"

"What should I ask?" Old Master Crawford replied in between bites of his breakfast.

The nurse who was spoon-feeding Old Master Crawford kept her head low and dared not to speak. She knew that the family was not an ordinary one.

"Don't you know how crazy young people can get these days? I've underestimated what Bianca can do. I'm sure that Luke must have gone to that small town to look for her!" Allison might not understand her son well, but she knew what despicable lengths Bianca could go.

No man would have been able to withstand the charms of that woman!

Old Master Crawford did not appreciate Allison's tone of voice, though he shared Allison's worry about what might happen.

If a man and a woman did not control themselves while they were alone, it was easy to make a big mistake.

"Give me the phone," Old Master Crawford ordered Allison, "Call Luke's office first."

Allison had called Luke's office earlier. No one answered the call, and it was diverted to the secretary's phone.

Allison dialed the number in front of Old Master Crawford and turned on the speaker.

Again, no one answered the call.

The result was the same after several tries.

Old Master Crawford furrowed his brows. He looked at the phone and said, "Dial Luke's number."

Allison did not want to make the call. Even if she did, her son would make up an excuse to end the conversation.

It would be different if Old Master Crawford were the one speaking.

Luke was not one to go against his grandfather, especially when his grandfather was bedridden in the hospital.

Very soon, the call was answered.

The person who answered the call was Jason. "Good day, Madam Tanner," he said.

"Jason? I'm Luke's grandfather!" Old Master Crawford spoke loudly and clearly into the phone.

"Old Master Crawford! Can I help you with anything?" Jason replied politely.

"Where's Luke? Why did you answer his phone?" The old man was suspecting that his grandson had gone off to do something shady.
