Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2317

Luke’s gaze darkened when he heard Susan’s ambiguous tone.

Susan felt the strong and angry aura from Luke and took an instinctive small step backward. Only then did she realize that she was afraid of Luke.

Luke quirked his lips. From Susan’s ambiguous tone and harsh appearance, Luke knew that Louis must have gotten an earful moments ago. “We’ll be going back first.”

“Drive safe, Brother,” Yuri quickly said.

After Luke and Luca left with their children, Susan turned to glare at Yuri with displeasure. “Even you’re so ready to chummy up to him, huh?”

“Mother, I’m not…” Yuri defended. She did not understand how her act of common courtesy had become chumming up to Luke in her mother’s eyes.

After all, an act was only believable when one kept it up.

“Cut the attitude in front of children, lest they take after your bad example.” Susan harrumphed. She did not like it when people tried to get in Luke’s good graces.

Yuri listened exasperatedly to Susan, unable to defend herself.

Luke, Luca, and the children took the lift to the lobby on the first floor and happened to stumble into Louis who had just finished paying.

“You’re leaving already, Brother?” Louis greeted Luke first.

“Yeah.” Luke saw the receipt still in Louis’ hand and asked, “Did you just pay?”

“Yeah. I only paid the deposit before, so I came to pay the outstanding amount once the banquet ended.” Louis smiled. Despite how harsh Susan’s words were, Louis harbored no resentment toward Luke.

“Are you free tomorrow?” Luke asked.

“I am. Why?” Louis assumed that Luke needed his help with something.

“Could you come over to T Corporation?” Luke asked.

“Sure. I’ll arrive around 10, then. My mother and Yuri are still upstairs, so I’ll be going first.” Louis put the bill away. Susan’s birthday celebration cost him a lot of money, but he did not dare to tell Susan so.

He was certain that if he did, Susan would only use it as fuel to scold him for being too incompetent to compete with Luke for T Corporation.

“Alright.” Luke nodded.

Louis smiled at Luca and said, “I’ll be going first, Dr. Craw. By the way, you look truly stunning today. You’re a great match with my brother.”

Then, he went to the lift.

“Bye…” Luca waved. The compliment made her feel rather shy.

It was not because she was embarrassed over Louis saying that she looked stunning but because he said she was a great match with Luke.

Beside them stood Tommy who was rubbing his eyes after standing for a while. He turned to tell Luke, “I’m sleepy, Daddy.” The little boy had exerted most of his energy playing with the other children.

Luke looked down at his son. Tommy and Lanie had gone wild in the children’s playground today, so it was only natural that they were running out of energy. Luke replied, “We’re going home right now.”

“Up, Daddy. I’m too sleepy to walk.” Tommy reached out. He originally wanted to ask Luca to carry him, but she might not agree, so he turned to ask Luke instead.

Luke was not the type to spoil his children too much, but Tommy looked truly pitiful at the moment. Luke glanced at Luca and realized that if he declined Tommy, Luca might end up carrying Tommy instead.

However, Tommy was no longer the same young toddler he used to be and the boy was considerably heavy now.

Luca might suffer if she were to carry their son.

As such, Luke bent down to carry Tommy before turning to look at Lanie and Rainie. “Let’s go home.”

“Okay, Daddy,” the siblings replied.

Luca stepped forward and took both Lanie and Rainie’s hands, holding one in each of her hands as they walked out of the hotel.

They looked like a happy family of five.
