Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2256

At night.

Luke had nothing planned for the day, so he returned to the villa after he left the office.

As soon as he walked into the house, the children surrounded him and handed him their homework. "Daddy, we’ve finished our homework."

Luke took their workbooks. He did not see Luca in the living room, so he asked the kids, "Where's Ms. Luca?"

Rainie replied obediently, "Ms. Luca is in the kitchen preparing dinner. Aunt Neile asked for some time off and just left, so Ms. Luca is busy cooking alone. Daddy, after you’re done checking our homework, go and help Ms. Luca."

Luke put their workbooks down. "I'll go take a look."

He walked into the kitchen and saw Luca in an apron preparing dinner for the family. It reminded him of how she was always in the kitchen preparing dinner for him and the children three years ago.

At that time, Luca would never let the maid cook since the children liked to eat the meals she prepared. At most, she would let the maid become her helper.

"Stop it," Luke said softly when he saw how busy she was.

Luca was startled by the sudden sound and turned back while holding a spatula. ‘It’s him…’

She was so immersed in cooking that she did not notice how long Luke had been standing at the door.

"Mr. Crawford?" She looked at the man with some confusion.

"Why isn't Aunt Neile here?" Luke asked in a hoarse voice. A few years ago, he could still hold her when she was in an apron whenever he wanted. He would keep annoying her so that they could spend more time together.

"Aunt Neile's grandson is sick, and the adults can't take care of her, so she asked for a day off," Luca said. Aunt Neile was a responsible woman. Even when her grandchild was sick, she waited until Luca returned and could take care of Lanie and the others before she asked to take some time off.

As such, she told Warren to turn around and send Aunt Neile home.

"Let's go out for dinner," Luke said. He could not bear for Luca to overtire herself as she had been working in the company during the day. Now, she had to prepare dinner for the family.

"I'm almost done," Luca said. She did not forget to open the lid and put some vegetables into the noodles.

Luke smelled the aroma of the noodles, and his appetite was whet. He could not wait to taste the noodles.

"Forget it. The next time Aunt Neile asks for leave, let’s go out to eat. It's tiring for you to prepare dinner alone," he said and let her continue to prepare dinner.

Luca picked up the utensil and stirred the noodles. ‘Is he… worried about me?’

She did not feel tired preparing dinner for him and the kids. However, she got off work a little late and decided to cook something simple because she was afraid that the kids would be starving.

"Mm, we can eat dinner soon. By the way, Lanie and the others should have finished their homework..."

Luke felt a sense of happiness in his heart as he listened to her babble. He thought that even if he were an ordinary and poor office worker, he would live a life full of joy even as long as he had her as his wife like Luca.

"I'm going to check their work now." With that, he returned to the living room.

Luca smiled. ‘What a great life…’

She brought the five bowls of hot noodles to the table. Before she could tell the children that dinner was ready, Tommy ran in and exclaimed, "Ms. Luca, are we eating noodles tonight?"

"Yeah." Luca turned around and walked into the kitchen to bring out the two side dishes she prepared. She put them on the table, and a scrumptious dinner was ready.

"It smells delicious, I love noodles prepared by Ms. Luca!" Tommy sat on the chair and looked as though he was waiting to dig in.

Luca smiled and said, "Come, this is yours. You must finish this big bowl of noodles."

Tommy held the insulated bowl and did not think that the noodles were hot. He picked up his utensils and said, "The teacher said it's a shame to waste food, so I promise that I’ll finish it."
