Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2132

Zoey hurriedly walked out and said, “Dr. Craw, are you going to the lab?”

Luca stopped in her tracks and looked back at her. “Yes, what is it?”

“Dr. Craw, Mr. Crawford is waiting in your office…” Zoey informed her. Luke had just come downstairs looking for Luca. After learning that she still had not returned from her meeting at Watson, he decided to wait here.

After hearing that Luke was waiting for her, she started to feel all warm inside. She turned around and made a gesture to Rhett, signaling him to go in first.

Rhett nodded and walked toward the lab.

Luca looked back at Zoey and asked, “How long has Mr. Crawford been waiting?”

Zoey glanced at the time and replied, “About ten minutes. He knew that you were still in a meeting at Watson, so he went straight into your office without telling me to inform you.”

Luke was the boss of this company, after all. Hence, she watched him walk into Luca’s office without stopping him.

“Got it.” Luca turned around and walked back to her office.

Since Luke was there, she could not leave him hanging just for the sake of work.

Luca pushed the door open to see the man sitting on the couch with his phone in his hands. His eyes were glued to the phone screen.

She knew that he was not playing games on his phone but dealing with work.

In the hands of others, a phone could provide all kinds of entertainment—shows, chatting, or games. However, in Luke’s hands, he mostly used it for work.

He was either dealing with emails and files or talking to relevant people about work.

“Mr. Crawford, what brings you here?” asked Luca as she closed the door so that passersby could not peek inside.

“I’m waiting for you to get off work.” Luke put down his phone and looked at Luca with tenderness from deep down inside him.

Get off work?

Luca said in dismay, “I’m afraid I won’t be done early today, Mr. Crawford. If you’re getting off work, perhaps you can go back first…”

“Did you forget the promise you made to the children?” Luke reminded her.

Yesterday, Luca had promised to take Old Master Crawford’s pulse, but it was only Friday today…

“I might need to go on a business trip to the next city for the next two days, so I won’t be here,” Luke said resolvedly, and because of that, he had set the dinner tonight.

He presumed that Luca would be able to make time for it, so he did not notify her in advance.

“In that case, wait for me to pack my things,” said Luca as there was no way she would go to Crawford Manor alone. Besides, Susan already thought that she had an ulterior motive. Therefore, to avoid any disputes, she would choose to go only when Luke was going—even if she was only going to take Old Master Crawford’s pulse.

With Luke there, Susan would restrain herself from provoking her.

“Take your time. It’s still early,” said Luke as it was the usual time to get off work, so they would not be late.

Moreover, he had informed them that he would be bringing Luca and the kids back for dinner tonight at the last minute. Hence, the cooks and the maids must be busy making more sumptuous dishes right now.

After all, Old Master Crawford liked Luca.

Luca hurriedly packed up the files on her desk and put them in the safe.

Luke looked at her scurrying figure and casually asked, “Were you at Watson for a meeting?”

“Yes.” Luca nodded as she entered the safe’s password in front of him without trying to cover it up.

Luca understood him.

Although Luke did not say much, it did not mean that he did not care. Moreover, Luke had personally invited several old professors there, which indicated his determination to be at the top in the pharmaceutical industry. Hence, there was no way he would not deal with this matter.

Therefore, she was relieved that Luke would handle it.

After successfully letting him know about it, Luca let out a sigh of relief and picked up the briefcase at the side. “Mr. Crawford, I’m done.”

“Let’s go, then.” Luke glanced at the time on his wristwatch and said, “Zander must’ve picked up the kids by now too.”

Luca nodded. Getting off work with him while talking about the kids… It seemed like something a married couple would do.

She knew that she could not long for this kind of life, but she could not help but feel happy.

It was all because she loved Luke so much.

Even if they were not intimate, she cherished these little memories several times more…

The two of them walked out of the office together.

Zoey sat on her office chair and watched as Luke and Luca left together. Luca clocked out at the punch card machine next to the elevator while Luke waited beside her.

The two stood there, and although they did not behave intimately, they looked like the perfect match.

Zoey watched from afar, and it seemed as though she could sense the gentleness from Luke that he usually did not show to the public.

This scene was too beautiful…
