Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2230

"I have things to do tonight, and so does Luca," replied Luke. Aunt Neile must be tired after working for the whole day. Nina happened to be here. She could look after the kids so that Aunt Neile could get off work on time.

Nina narrowed her eyes. She was willing to look after the kids, but she became reluctant once those words came out of Luke's mouth.

If Luca was the one who asked her to help, Nina would be happy to do so. After all, the kids were well-behaved, and it would not be difficult to take care of them.

“What are you doing tonight?” Nina asked.

Luca heard Nina and looked at Luke. Why did she not know that she had something to do tonight?

Luke did not look at Nina. Instead, he looked at Luca and explained, “Marcos invited us and Tina for supper tonight.”

“Oh, Mr. Marcos invited us…” Luca nodded, but she had no idea about it before that.

“Fine,” Nina mumbled in dissatisfaction.

Tommy raised his right hand as he would during classes and asked, "Daddy, I'd love to have supper too. Can I go with you?"

“No.” Luke rejected him heartlessly.

“Why?” Tommy was unconvinced. Was having supper something only adults could do?

"We'll be talking about work," Luke told him the reason.

“Children aren’t allowed to join. Besides, Daddy and Ms. Luca will be coming home late. You’re a sleepy head. You’ll get sleepy,” Lanie added. Lanie and Rainie were often brought along by Luke to attend business dinners when they were young. They knew how boring it was. Lanie and Rainie were not like Tommy, who wanted to follow Luke to business dinners.

It was boring!

Tommy had no choice but to put his hand down. He pouted and replied, "I'd like to grow up quickly and become an adult. That way, I can have lots of suppers too."

Luca leaned against him on his back and listened to him. She could not help but titter at his words.

Children were always looking forward to growing up when they were young, but when they grew up, they would realize that being a child was way better.

Luca asked for nothing and only hoped that Luke could have a bright future and live a peaceful life, while the kids could grow up happily and healthily.

That way, all the suffering that she went through would be worth it.

After Tommy stopped making a fuss, Lanie looked at Nina and called her, “Ms. Nina.”

“Yes? What’s the matter?” Nina looked at Lanie’s handsome face. People always said that a son usually resembled his mother, but Luke’s genes were stronger, so Lanie resembled him a lot. Although Nina was not a big fan of Luke, she was still fond of Lanie.

After all, who would not like a good and obedient child?

“Please take care of my brother later,” said Lanie politely. Tommy was the one who needed someone to look after him the most. Lanie and Rainie were well-disciplined. They always followed their schedule and they knew what to do.

“Okay. I owe your father and you too.” Nina smiled and agreed to it.

After dinner, it was almost time to go out. Luke brought Luca along with him, and they left the house together.

When they were in the car, Luca asked, “Mr. Crawford, where’s the place Mr. Marcos invited us to?”

Luke set the navigation, glanced at the destination, and replied, “Uncle Roger‘s food stall.”

"Uncle Roger's… food stall?" Luca was slightly surprised. She thought Marcos would invite her to a fancy restaurant for supper. She did not expect it to be a food stall.
