Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2145

Louis nodded. He understood the undertone of Luke’s words.

Luke was telling him not to be concerned about borrowing less from him and spending all his cash on this jewelry set as it would affect his family.

"Brother, don't worry. I know what to do," replied Louis. He would not let his family suffer just to satisfy Susan, especially Thea. He needed to spend a lot of money on her now.

"It's getting late. Get some rest." Luke patted Louis' shoulder and left the balcony.

Louis watched Luke leave from behind. Luke had always been taking up responsibilities since he was a little boy. Until now, Luke was still the well-qualified big brother in Louis’ heart.

Louis recalled that when he was still young, the relatives of the Crawford family were unhappy that Allison brought Luke back home. They often spoke ill about the mother and son in front of him. They even told him that he had to be better than Luke. Otherwise, they would lose everything they had.

Although he was not as outstanding as Luke was now, he was living the life he wanted. Besides, he did not lose everything because of it.

The brothers got along pretty well.

Louis smiled at the thought of what Pierre told him two days ago. He had tried to make mischief between him and Luke. At this moment, he thanked Luke while watching him leave from behind.

Louis thanked Luke for being willing to be his brother.

Luke did not return to his bedroom immediately after he left the balcony. He headed to the guest room instead.

This was the guest room that Old Master Crawford had asked the maid to clean for Luca to spend the night here.

Luke pondered for a moment and knocked on the door.

“Who is it?” Luca’s voice came from the other side of the door.

“It’s me,” said Luke.

No sound came from the room after that. A few seconds later, the bedroom door was opened. Luca was in her pajamas, and she stood at the door to ask, “Mr. Crawford, can I help you?”

“Am I only allowed to talk to you when I have instructions for you?” Luke asked.

Luca felt a little awkward. She always had this feeling that Luke seemed to be dissatisfied with something else. She shook her head immediately, “No, I didn’t mean that…”

She was hoping that she could see Luke every minute and every second of the day, but due to their current relationship, they were not allowed to do so.

Seeing each other often would only start rumors about them.

“I came to see you,” said Luke. He glanced at the bed in the room. The blanket had been laid properly, and it seemed like there was nothing that Luca needed.

Luca folded her hands and rubbed her hands unconsciously when she heard what Luke said. Then, she turned around and looked at him. “I’m fine.”

“If you need anything, just call the maid with the phone beside the bed and ask them to prepare it for you,” reminded Luke.

“Alright. I got it.” Luca met his gaze, then she shifted her gaze away and let her gaze wander.

Luke opened his mouth as he wanted to say something more, but he noticed Luca’s uneasiness. It melted his heart at once.

He knew what Luca was worried about.

She was worried that the old master or Susan would see them standing so close to each other. Also, she was worried that the others would speculate about their relationship and stop them.

She had tons to worry about.

Luke had been concealing his knowledge of her identity from her. He was not sure whether it was right or wrong to let her suffer like that.

However, they had made it this far. He had to continue regardless of the choice he made was right or wrong. The only way to end this was to figure out who was the mastermind behind Luca.

That way, Luca would be able to stay by his side without having to worry about anything.

“Go to sleep. Goodnight.” Luke was a little disappointed, but he turned around and left.

Luca secretly let out a sigh. She knew Luke wanted to tell her something, but if he said it out loud, things would change.

That was why Luca would not give him the chance to say it to her.
