Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2189

“Pfft.” Luca looked at how helpless Nina was and laughed.

Tommy shook his head and deliberately lowered his voice, “Ms. Nina, it’s not like our homework is difficult.”

“I know it’s not difficult, but you all… I can only say that you’re too smart. There’s no need for me to get involved.” Nina sighed.

“Yeah, they don’t need tutoring, but they need someone to check their homework later. Nina, I’ll go help Aunt Neile in the kitchen. Can you check the kid’s homework later?” said Luca.

“Alright, I’ll promise to get the job done.” Nina gave her an OK gesture.

Luca turned around and walked into the kitchen.

Tommy whispered, “Great, we’ll have good food again tonight.”

Nina listened to the child and patted his head. She said, “Aunt Neile’s cooking is also very good.”

“But Ms. Luca’s tastes even better!” Tommy handed his finished homework to Nina. “Ms. Nina, I’m done. Check it, please.”

Nina was glad. She finally had something to do. She took the workbook and checked it while saying, “Do I need to sign at the back of the workbook?”

“Let Ms. Luca do it. She can imitate Daddy’s handwriting,” said Tommy as he picked up a cookie to eat.

Nina raised her eyebrows. “She can do that?”

“Yes, Ms. Luca is awesome,” Tommy said with admiration.

Nina laughed and shook her head. It was not unusual for a child to adore adults, but it was unusual for a child to adore someone other than their parents.

Nina finished checking his homework. Lanie and Rainie finished theirs at the same time, so she helped check theirs too. At that moment, Luca and Aunt Neile had finished preparing dinner.

At the dinner table, Luca asked Nina, “Did you ask Aunt Neile to prepare the daily essentials for you?”

Yes, they’re all prepared, and…” Nina got a piece of meat and said, “Percy called today. I said I want to stay here to clear my mind for a while. He got Joanne to send over some clothes and skincare products, so I don’t really lack anything.”

Luca was surprised. “Mr. Mallory agreed?”

Percy used to want to cling to Nina all the time. Even if they disagreed on the matter of marriage, it was not to the extent that he would agree to have Nina here.

“He’s busy right now and can’t protect me all the time. Ironically, this place is safer than his house or a hotel. Even if the Mallory family wants to make trouble, they’ll still show some respect to Luke. They won’t come over,” she explained to her while forcing a smile.

Luca instantly understood and nodded. Old Master Mallory was already guilty after everything Percy had done. Moreover, the Mallory family and the Crawford family had a good relationship. No matter how much noise the Mallory family made, they would not come here.

Tommy listened to the adults talk and could not help but give a thumbs up while praising, “Daddy is awesome!”

Luca laughed and shook her head.

Nina patted Tommy’s head and asked, “Yes, your father is awesome. What do you want to eat? Ms. Nina will get some for you.”

“Ms. Nina, I’ll get it myself. I’m not a little kid anymore! I can eat by myself. I don’t need any help, just like my brother and sister!” Tommy said while standing up to get a piece of meat.

“Why are Luke’s children all so obedient? It’s no fun.” Nina pouted and complained when she was in fact just livening up the atmosphere.

“Let’s eat,” said Luca. The children had matured a lot during the years she was not around them.

Lanie’s nature was even colder, while Rainie became even more gentle and understanding. On the other hand, Tommy was still cheeky, but he had learned a lot of things. He had become more independent now instead of always relying on her.

“No, that drug can only be researched at the company and can’t be brought out. I’m just researching some drugs on my own. They’re not rigorous drugs because they didn’t go through clinical trials. They’re usually just for personal use, and if they’re effective, I’ll give them to the people around me.”

“That’s amazing,” Nina exclaimed.

Luca had no intention of having Nina leave. She was allowed to be here if she was curious. Besides, she was not a kid who might accidentally destroy her research.

Knock, knock. There were knocks on the door after Luca just sat down, and Aunt Neile’s voice was heard. “Ms. Craw, are you there?”

“I’m here. Come in.” Luca glanced at the time. Aunt Neile should be getting off work at this hour.

Aunt Neile pushed the door open and came in with a ghastly look on her face. “Ms. Craw, this is bad…”

Luca furrowed her brows instantly. “What’s wrong?”

“People from the Mallory family are at the entrance. They said they want to see Ms. Nina…” said Aunt Neile as she glanced at Nina.

Luca frowned. The Mallory family really came?

As soon as Nina heard that, her face turned pale. She turned to Luca and apologized, “I’m sorry, Luca. I didn’t know…”

“It’s not your fault. Why are you apologizing? You didn’t do anything wrong.” Luca’s face was stern. The Mallory family was here. If she did not let them in, they would cause a scene. If she let them in, Nina would have a hard time.

“They’re insisting on coming in, aren’t they?” asked Luca.

“I just talked to them. I didn’t mention that Ms. Nina’s here, nor did I admit that she’s here. However, they’re very sure that she is, so they asked me to open the door,” Aunt Neile said helplessly. Facing the overbearing Mallory family was not something a maid like her could handle.
