Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2174

“There’s no need to get anything for her. We’re just meeting up and having lunch together. We don’t need to make it so formal, right, Rainie?” Luca lowered her head and looked at Rainie, who was drinking her water, with a smile on her face.

Amur noticed how gentle Luca's smiling eyes were. It was how she looked at Nyla when she was on the Island of Despair.

It must be difficult for Rainie to part with Luca if she had to. Luca was a good mother, after all.

However, Nyla could not bear to part with Luca either. They were her daughters. How could she stand the thought of parting with her daughters?

Amur made up his mind. He must work hard to prevent Luca from going through the pain of parting with her family again.

Rainie nodded and agreed with what Luca said, but Amur thought it was inappropriate.

Amur stood up and said, “No. It’s impolite of me. The dishes aren’t served yet. Please excuse me for a minute.”

“Wait.” Luca stopped Amur while thinking fast. “It’s really okay. There’s no need to trouble yourself. You can buy Rainie dessert if you insist. She has a sweet tooth.”

Rainie went along with Luca and said, “Yes, Uncle Amur. You can buy me dessert.”

"That's all?" Amur thought it was too perfunctory. Who would buy desserts for a child during their first meeting?

"Kids love eating snacks. Usually, when it's your first time meeting a child, most people would get them snacks apart from toys and clothes. If you think one isn't enough, you can order two. I'd like to have some too." Luca deliberately said that as she thought it was a bad idea for Amur to go out and get something for Rainie when it was freezing out there.

Amur had no choice but to pick up the menu and order a few desserts for the two of them when Luca insisted on buying Rainie desserts. Rainie had also agreed to what she said.

Luca stopped him and said, “Amur, that’s enough. We can’t finish it all if you order more. It’ll be a waste.”

That was when Amur stopped ordering, and he said to the waitress, “That’s all for now.”

The waitress smiled and took the menu away.

Rainie stuck out her little tongue. She could not help but sigh. “Uncle Amur, are you trying to make me fat?”

Amur seldom talked to children, so he asked with confusion, “Of course not. What’s wrong?”

"You must think that I'm too skinny, and that's why you ordered so many desserts. You're trying to make me fat," Rainie said mischievously.

Even though she was a child, she could sense Amur's feelings for Luca. However, she could not seem to hate him. She thought Amur was nice and friendly.

“Although I didn’t mean that, I guess it’s alright for kids to be a little chubbier, right?” Amur was amused. He did not expect the little girl to have such a witty tongue when she looked so decent and quiet.

“But I have to dance. So, Uncle Amur, you’ll have to eat more later.” Rainie frowned, then smiled again.

Amur looked at Luca with confusion.

Luca explained, “Rainie is learning ballet. She just finished her ballet performance before coming here.”

Luca sounded proud when she mentioned it.

It was something to be proud of when her daughter could dance ballet well.

Amur gave Rainie a thumbs-up and praised her, “Wow, that’s impressive. Many little girls in my country love ballet too. Rainie, would you like to become a ballet dancer?”

"Uncle Amur, I'm still young. I can't make up my mind now. Let's talk about the future next time," said Rainie. Although she loved ballet, she was not sure whether or not she would become a professional ballet dancer in the future.

"I'm not sure, but he looks European," answered the man as he picked up the file and looked into it. The information about Luca's relationships was in the file.

The man checked for a while and said, “Got it. His name is Amur.”

“It’s him…” Luke’s voice sounded grim at once.

The man could sense Luke’s change of mood from the other end of the line, and he quickly added, “But they’re not alone. Ms. Craw brought Ms. Rainie along with her.”

Luke frowned. Luca actually brought Rainie to meet that man?

“Rainie’s there, right? Keep an eye on them and make sure they’re safe,” replied Luke. He had told the kids about the situation Luca was in now, and he believed Rainie knew exactly what to do.

Although Rainie would not ruin everything, she knew what to do. Amur could not do anything if she was there.

“Alright, Boss.” The man looked at the harmonious atmosphere between the three of them. Rainie seemed like she was getting along with Amur. He hesitated for a moment, and after replying to Luke with guilt, he chose not to tell Luke about it.

Luke did not sound okay now. If he knew Rainie and Amur were getting along well, he might lose control, drop whatever he was doing now, and hurry over here to defend his rights.

“Are you hiding something from me?” Luke was sensitive enough to sense the guilt in his voice.

“No, Boss. They’re eating now. I’ll protect Ms. Craw and Ms. Rainie,” the man quickly replied to him. If Luke found out what was happening now, he would ask him to make a mess out of things if he could not make it here in time.

That way, Luca would surely be alert after this.

"Watch over them carefully. Inform me if anything happens," said Luke. He hung up the phone and lifted his hand to signal Jason to continue to report to him the progress of the acquisition.
