Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2244

T Corporation.

It was almost past lunchtime when Luca walked out of the laboratory.

Luca asked Zoey to order takeout for her. That was why she was planning to return to her office and eat her lunch. After that, she would continue to handle her work.

Before she returned to her office, Zoey came forward and said, “Dr. Craw, I’ve left your lunchbox on your office desk. And Mr. Crawford is in your office.”

Luca was startled for a moment. Zoey deliberately lowered her voice when she mentioned Luke’s name.

“I got it.” Luca’s voice was calm, and it carried a trace of coldness.

Zoey watched Luca march back to her office from behind. She could not help but let out a sigh. If it was another woman who encountered such a situation, she would not be able to hide the joy and excitement in her voice.

However, Luca…

Her reaction was so calm, and she was not even surprised to hear that. She was different from the other women. Perhaps that was the reason why their boss was attracted to her.

Luca pushed the door open and walked into her office. Luke was sitting on the sofa waiting for her.

Luca closed the door, took off her white coat, and said, “Mr. Crawford, what brings you here?”

“I came to eat lunch with you,” replied Luke.

Luca only came to notice that there were a few lunchboxes on the coffee table. One of them must be the one Zoey ordered for her, while Luke must have brought the others here.

“This is too much…” Luca said awkwardly.

“No, it’s not. Take a seat,” replied Luke. He opened the lunch boxes one after another. Then, he took the disposable cutleries and helped Luca with some white bread.

Luca had a smaller appetite. That was why Luke did not give her a lot of bread. Then, he helped her with the bacon and placed it on her plate.

“That’s enough, Mr. Crawford.” Luca knew Luke was helping her with the food when she saw the bread on the plate. As Luca watched the bacon fill up the plate, she quickly stopped him and said, “I can’t eat that much…”

Luke lifted his head and put the plate in front of Luca. Then, he said, “Come on. Eat your lunch. You can have some brown sugar tea that Aunt Neile had sent here.”

“Aunt Neile sent some brown sugar tea for me?” Luca was surprised. She took a bite of the bacon. It tasted familiar.

“Don’t you think it tastes familiar to you?” Luke questioned her. He asked Aunt Neile to send the lunchboxes to the office since she was delivering the brown sugar tea here.

“Aunt Neile prepared these.” Luca took another bite. She knew it was Aunt Neile who prepared it. At first, she was wondering how there could be so many choices if Luke ordered takeout.

The food looked sumptuous, smelled good, and tasted yummy…

“You can have more. Your body needs more nutrients now,” said Luke.

Luca found it strange when she heard him saying that. Why did Luke make it sound like she was pregnant… Previously, when she was pregnant with Luke’s fourth child, she barely took any supplements and nutrients…

In the end, she depended on Shanks’s nutrient injections. She was unable to get used to the food served on the Island of Despair.

After lunch, Luca drank the brown sugar tea Aunt Neile made for her.

The warm brown sugar tea tasted good. There was the aroma of ginger. At the same time, the sweetness of the brown sugar covered up the spiciness of the ginger. The two flavors went well together.

“Is it good?” Luke asked when he saw the satisfied expression on Luca’s face. He felt content too.

“It’s good.” Luca pulled a tissue and wiped her mouth.

Luke stared at her and asked, “Luca, can you tell me why you went to the hospital today?”
