Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2163

Jean squinted his eyes and looked at her red and swollen cheeks without a semblance of compassion. Instead, he felt resentment.

Marie saw that he did not respond, so she immediately pounced and hugged him. “Jean, I really love you. Don't give up on our relationship okay?"

Jean listened to her weeping with disgust and said, "You can't lie to me anymore."

"I swear, I'll never lie to you again! Let's live a happy life together, okay?" Marie reassured him.

It occurred to Jean that Marie still had the Rayne family behind her, and he became gentle. He touched her red and swollen face and asked in a low voice, "Does it hurt?"

Marie nodded.

"I did this because I got too angry just now. I'm sorry. Don't be angry at me," Jean apologized. He knew that Marie wanted to get close to him for a reason, but at the same time, he had an ulterior motive for getting close to her as well

The reason he overreacted was that he had just found out from Nina that Marie set him up.

After Marie explained things, he was no longer mad.

"I'm not angry with you. I did do some things that hurt you. Jean, after being through so much together, please don't give up on me." Marie hugged him.

Jean pushed her away and said, "I won't leave you. Sit down. I'll go get you an ice pack."

After saying that, he walked into the kitchen.

Marie's pitiful appearance changed instantly. She looked at a certain corner in the living room with sad yet vicious eyes.

Nina...

Jean...

She must remember what they did to her and make them fall into an abyss of doom!

In the Rayne family's house.

After Old Man Rayne and Old Master Crawford were done enjoying their snacks, they continued playing chess. Luca sat aside and watched with great interest.

She would even talk to the old masters from time to time.

Wanda was doing some work in her little workshop. She was at ease as Luca was there to help look after the old masters.

When it was 4:30 in the afternoon, Luca glanced at the time and realized that it was time for her to go pick up the children.

If she was late, Lanie and Rainie would understand, but Tommy, the little one who did not want to go to calligraphy class in the first place, would have something to say.

Luca saw that the two old masters were still playing chess, so she waited for a while. When the game was over, she said, “Grandpa Rayne, I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving."

Old Man Rayne stopped rearranging the chess pieces and looked at her, "So soon? Aren't you staying for dinner?"

Luca laughed when she heard him persuade her to stay. She wanted to spend more time with the old man too, but now was now the time. "No, I have some things to do, and I've promised some other people."

"It's a pity. I was going to ask Wanda to cook more food tonight." Disappointment could be seen in Old Man Rayne's eyes.

Very few young people could sit here and watch them play for more than an hour. This showed that Luca was patient, and the old man liked patient people.

Old Master Crawford guessed that the people Luca said she had made a promise to were the three children, so he assisted her and said, "The most important thing for young people is to keep their promises. Don't make things difficult for Luca."
