Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2105

Luke and Luca walked beside Queenie, and they walked into the house together.

Luke glanced around and found that Jack was not there. "Mother-in-law, where’s Jack?"

"He’s still at the provincial office as he has a meeting today. He’ll come back a little later. Ten minutes ago, he said he was ready to leave and mentioned that he would get a bottle of wine. He wants to drink with you tonight. Don't just stand here. Come sit and drink some tea to warm your body." Queenie said with a smile as she got them to sit down.

"Father-in-law has been busy. How is his health?" Luke asked, concerned. He was sitting across from Queenie.

"He’s been busy. There seem to be a lot of meetings going on recently, and he often comes back late. It’s considered early for him to come back at this time today," Queenie said as she made them tea.

Jack was occupied likely because there was a new project in the province, or he was attending to the inspection officers from the central government.

There was no news about the central government coming for inspections, so Luke assumed that Jack was working overtime on the development in the western suburbs.

After all, if the land were to be developed, Jack, as the leader, must have a lot of things to attend to. He had to meet, discuss, and negotiate with various departments.

"Come, have some tea." Queenie poured the tea into two cups and placed them in front of them.

Luca picked up the cup and took a sip of the hot tea.

The tea was warm and reminded her of the warmth of a mother.

"Aunt Queenie, let me take your pulse." Luca put down the cup after she felt the warmth on her hands.

"Okay." Queenie reached out her hand so that Luca could take her pulse.

Luca put her hand lightly on Queenie’s pulse while she looked, smelled, inquired, and diagnosed.

Luke watched without saying anything.

After about a minute, Luca motioned to Queenie to bring over her other hand and continued to take her pulse.

After half a minute, she asked, "Aunt Queenie, you haven't been sleeping well lately?"

"Yeah, how did you know?" Queenie nodded. Although she did not have insomnia like she used to, she was always dreaming.

Her dreams were absurd and bizarre. They mostly involved Bianca and Leia. She would wake up tired like she had not gotten any sleep at night.

Jack did not know about it either because she knew he was busy and did not want him to worry.

Although she did not mention anything about it, Jack could tell that something was wrong. He thought she seemed a little flustered whenever she woke up as though she did not get enough sleep.

"Your pulse is a little chaotic like you're often restless. I can prepare a prescription to condition your body," Luca said.

She knew that Queenie did not like her, so she did not dare to mess around. Luca was worried that Queenie might overthink.

"Okay, thank you." Queenie retracted her hand. Although Luca could tell what she was going through, Queenie was well aware.

She was not sick; she was overthinking.

It was mainly about Bianca and Leia.

She did not know where Bianca was, and Bianca had made it clear that she would not be returning to A City this year.

No matter what she said, Bianca still insisted on not returning to A City.
