Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2235

Luke smiled when he looked at Luca from behind. She was trying to avoid him. He turned off the lights and lay down on the bed.

There was a wave of warmth on Luca's waist as Luke wrapped his arms around her. He said, "Good night."

It was as though his deep and husky voice was expressing his gentleness.

‘Good night…’

Luca muttered in her heart and quietly closed her eyes.

Luca never had any problems with sleeping when Luke was by her side. She could sleep through the night.

The following day.

Luke had already gotten out of bed when Luca woke up in the morning. She sat up on the bed and listened carefully to her surroundings. No noises were coming from the bathroom. It looked like Luke had already left.

Luca touched the mattress beside her. It was still warm.

Luke had cuddled with her last night. The warmth on Luke’s body made her feel like her body was on fire.

Luca was not overwhelmed by the warmth she felt last night. The uneasiness in her reminded her that she should not fall for it. After all, she might be forced to leave Luke at any moment.

After Luca cleaned herself up, she walked out of the bedroom. She noticed that Luke’s bedroom door was left ajar. She glanced at the room and happened to see Luke sitting behind his desk, busy handling the documents.

It was probably because they had supper last night, so Luke did not get to finish his work.

Luca slightly furrowed her brows. She fell deeply asleep last night, and she did not even notice what time Luke woke up to work.

Luke could sense that Luca was staring at him and looked up. The moment their gazes met, there was a faint smile on his lips. He said, “Good morning.”

“Good morning…” Luca paused for a moment. “I’m going downstairs to prepare breakfast.”

Although Luca slept well last night, she woke up early. The kids were still in bed at this time, and Aunt Neile must be preparing breakfast downstairs.

Luca shifted her gaze away and made her way down the stairs.

Aunt Neile was busy making breakfast in the kitchen.

Luca walked into the kitchen. When she was about to put on the apron and help Aunt Neile, her phone rang.

She took her phone out of her pocket and noticed that it was Queenie calling her.

Luca’s heart skipped a beat. Something must have happened if Queenie was calling at this hour.

“Aunt Neile, let me answer this call first,” Luca said to Aunt Neile as she headed out.

“Okay, Ms. Craw. Go ahead.” Aunt Neile took a quick look behind her and noticed that color was draining from Luca’s face.

Luca trotted out of the kitchen and answered the call. “Good morning, Mrs. Norman. Why are you calling me early in the morning?”

Queenie’s anxious voice came from the other side of the line as she said, “Oh, Luca. I’m sorry to bother you early in the morning. There’s something I need you to help me with.”

"Mrs. Norman, do tell." Luca tensed up when she heard Queenie sound so anxious. She replied immediately.

“It’s Leia. She had a shock earlier before dawn. Her condition stabilized after the doctor rescued her, but…” Queenie sobbed. She could not utter the last few words at the end of the sentence.

“What did the doctor say?” Luca frowned. If it was about Leia’s condition… It was also something Luca was worried about.

“Yes, Dr. Park got her hooked up to the equipment since last night. He said we’ll have to wait until her condition has stabilized the next day. After that, he’ll remove the equipment,” Queenie sniffed.

“There’s nothing I can do if she’s still depending on the life support equipment. How about this? I’ll go over there later. I’ll need another two hours. Everything will be okay. The doctor is looking after her, so Ms. Norman will be fine.” Luca comforted Queenie. She was worried that Queenie would get confused and her health would be affected.

“Okay. I’ll be waiting at the hospital,” replied Queenie. It all happened so suddenly, and the hospital even issued a notice of critical illness for her. That was why Queenie and Jack went to the hospital together.

Jack was buying breakfast for her downstairs.

“Don’t worry. Dr. Park is an experienced and skilled doctor.” Luca ended the call after comforting her. She was no longer in the mood to help Aunt Neile to prepare breakfast. She walked into the kitchen and said to Aunt Neile, “Aunt Neile, can you please make me a cup of coffee?”

“You’re having coffee today? Not milk?” Aunt asked surprisingly.

“No,” replied Luca as she shook her head. Although she had enough rest last night, she needed to concentrate to handle Leia’s situation.

After Luca informed Aunt Neile, she sent a message to Johann to ask him how Leia's condition was now.

Johann was the one who rescued Leia, after all. He should know her current condition.

Aunt Neile had finished preparing breakfast while Luca was still busy texting Johann. Lanie and the others were awake and they came downstairs.

Nina followed right after the kids. She was surprised to see Luca sitting alone in the living room. Where was Luke?

“Breakfast is ready. You can have your breakfast now,” said Aunt Neile.

Luca got to know Leia’s current condition after chatting with Johann. She kept her phone and rose to her feet.

Aunt Neile noticed that Luke had not come down yet. She turned to look at Luca and asked, “Ms. Craw, is Mr. Crawford still in bed?”
