Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2205

Aunt Neile nodded and immediately took a bag out of the shelf. She took the American ginseng out and said, “Yes, ginseng is good for health. The old master asked Uncle Zander to send the ginseng here. He said it’s to improve your health. I was thinking of making some ginseng soup when Mr. Crawford came back. I’ll prepare it tonight.”

Luca looked at the American ginseng in Aunt Neile’s hands and glanced at it. It was a wild ginseng root over a hundred years old. Although the Crawford family was not short of supplements, Old Master Crawford was willing to spend a lot on these.

Nina brought the kids downstairs when breakfast was almost ready.

Nina had hardly slept in for the past few days. She followed the kids’ routine and would wake up once they were awake. Then, she would urge the kids to freshen themselves up and head downstairs together.

Luca told Nina that she did not have to do that and she could sleep in as long as she liked. After all, she knew Nina used to sleep in a lot.

However, Nina insisted on doing so. She told Luca that she wanted to get used to such a lifestyle.

Luca knew that Nina had never stopped thinking about getting pregnant with Percy’s child. It was pointless to repeat her words over and over again since Luca could not convince her. That was why she let Nina do whatever she wanted.

Luca served breakfast on the table and let out a sigh of relief when she saw Nina and the kids making their way down the stairs.

Fortunately, Luke woke up later than Nina and the kids.

“Good morning, Ms. Luca,” the three children greeted her in unison.

"Good morning," Luca smiled and replied. Then, she remembered Luke, who was still in bed. She decided not to wake him up. He could sleep in for a little while. Aunt Neile would keep his breakfast warm, after all. It was fine if he had his breakfast later. Hence, she said to the children, "Breakfast's ready. Hurry up. You'll have to go to school after finishing your breakfast."

“I can’t imagine how the kids can have such sumptuous breakfast every morning. I’m green with envy,” said Nina as she pinched Tommy’s chubby face.

“Ms. Nina, aren’t you eating breakfast too?” Tommy sat on the chair. He turned and gave Nina a puzzled look, while he took the croissant Luca handed to him.

"Although I'm staying here at the moment, I'm probably going back soon," Nina answered thoughtfully and gave Luca a meaningful look.

However, Luca was busy helping the kids with the croissants and did not notice that Nina was giving her that meaningful look. Luca made an assumption and asked, "Did Mr. Mallory find any clues as to who was the one who gave the information to the press yet?"

“I’m not sure. He’s been on a business trip for the past few days. I’m guessing his subordinates are looking into it. But I’m not sure if there’s any news about it. I’ll have to go back home when he comes back whether he finds the culprit or not. I can’t stay here all day and disturb you,” answered Nina. She picked up the croissant that smelled good and thought that Luca was the one who made the croissant.

Nina stared at the croissant as it reminded her of Bianca’s culinary skills.

Before something happened to Bianca, her culinary skills were good. As Bianca’s friend, Nina felt happy to be able to taste Bianca’s homemade food often.

Bianca thought Nina was too skinny at that time. She would prepare all kinds of scrumptious food for Nina to make her gain weight.

However, Nina was troubled and having a tough time at that time. She barely gained any weight.

"There's no way Mr. Mallory can look after you if he travels so often. When you go back home, feel free to come over and spend a few nights here when Mr. Mallory isn't in A City. The guest room is always here for you." After Luca helped the kids with their breakfast, she sat down and had her breakfast.

Nina was moved and asked, “Really?”

“Of course. Mr. Crawford and Mr. Mallory are close friends. He promised to help you back then, so he’s surely going to lend a hand in the future too. What matters the most now is to find out the person who spilled the tea,” replied Luca. The hot topic about Nina in the news articles and forum discussions seemed to be calming down.

Perhaps the people had enough of the story, the reporters had nothing new to write about, or Percy had asked someone to cover up the news.

However, it did not matter what had happened as long as things were cooling down. It was good for Nina.

Still, people had memories. It was the same with the Mallory family.

They would remember what Nina had gone through before. Even though the dust had settled, they would bring this up again once there was any big news about Nina and Percy.

“Yes. He looks tired and he’s still asleep. I was afraid that you might wake him up. That’s why I didn’t tell you. Off you go. You can meet Daddy after school, okay?” replied Luca. She did not tell the kids as she wanted Luke to rest a little longer.

The three kids nodded.

Rainie secretly thought that this proved that their mother cared for their father.

Luca turned around and left after she made sure the kids got into Uncle Zander’s car. She did not head to the living room. Instead, she got into the car and left the villa.

Marcos told her that there was no need to entertain them today, so Luca was going to go back to T Corporation for work.

In the living room.

Nina sat on the sofa in the living room watching the news after she finished her breakfast.

Aunt Neile was getting ready to go out to get some groceries after cleaning up. After all, she could get fresh ingredients if she went to the supermarket earlier.

Noises were coming from the stairs. Nina tilted her head and watched Luke make his way down the stairs. There was not even a surprised look on her face.

Luke met Nina’s gaze. He put his hands in his pockets without saying a word.

The two of them exchanged glances for half a minute. At last, Nina spoke in a lazy tone, “Your breakfast should be in the kitchen. They kept it warm for you.”

“Okay.” Luke was about to head to the kitchen.

“Luca and Aunt Neile didn’t tell me that you were back, but do you know why I’m not surprised to see you here?” Nina picked up the remote control and turned off the TV. She rose to her feet as her gaze fell on Luke.
