Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2324

Tommy picked up the buffalo wings and took a bite. Then, he made a thumbs-up gesture and complimented, "Yummy."

“Have some more if they taste good,” Luca helped Tommy with another one. Then, she saw Luke pick up his cutleries, but he had yet to help himself with the food. She said, “Mr. Crawford, try some?”

“Sure.” Luke had never been interested in the kids’ favorite dishes, but since Luca was the one who cooked them…

Luke lifted his fork and helped himself with one buffalo wing. Then, he placed it on his plate and slowly tasted it.

Luca looked away and helped herself with a piece of fish filet. She slowly took a bite and began eating. She ate and said at the same time, “I’m going to the hospital later.”

“Leia?” Luke immediately got it right.

“Yes. I’m going to be busy for the next few days, so I’d like to see if I can prescribe medicine for her while I have the time to do so today,” replied Luca.

“Let me send you there.” Luke offered her a ride.

Luca turned to look at him and hesitated for a few seconds. She eventually agreed with it and said, “Okay…”

“Don’t worry. I’m not going to go upstairs,” added Luke.

“Alright…” Luca nodded. It would be fine if Luke did not go upstairs.

If Leia saw Luke, her vital signs might be affected as she was afraid of him.

Tommy, who was sitting beside them, heard their conversation. He tilted his head, stopped eating, and pondered.

Luca noticed that and asked, “What’s wrong? Do the buffalo wings taste bad?”

Tommy shook his head, pouted, and said, "The buffalo wings you prepared are the best. I was wondering if Aunt Leia has a doctor? Why does she need you to take care of her if she already has a doctor?"

“I’m not taking care of her. I’m only going there to visit her,” Luca corrected him. She knew the kids did not like Leia, but there were hardly any hardships and struggles in a child’s world.

That was why Tommy could not understand.

“But Aunt Leia is scary,” said Tommy. They all knew Luca’s true identity, and that was why they thought she should not be going.

Although Luke and Old Master Crawford had never told them about Leia having something to do with their mother being kidnapped, they eventually found out about it when the maids were talking about it.

Luca stroked Tommy’s head and said, “I’ve asked Aunt Neile to stay longer to look after you today. Be good, okay?”

“Okay, Ms. Luca. I’ll listen to Aunt Neile,” Tommy had no choice but nod and say, “Besides, Lanie will be keeping an eye on me too.”

Other than getting scolded by Luke, Tommy was afraid of Lanie lecturing him too.

Although Lanie was only a few years older than him, he had a knack for lecturing him. He could make Tommy unable to refute him and apologize for his mistakes.

Luca helped Tommy with another buffalo wing while listening to him, “Have some more.”

"Thank you, Ms. Luca," Tommy smiled sweetly at her, then lowered his head to continue eating his dinner.

After dinner, Luke drove Luca to the hospital to prevent her from coming home late.

In the hospital.

Leia kept glancing at the time and staring at the door after she finished eating the oats delivered by the maid.

Queenie comforted her in a soft voice when she saw Leia was so anxious. “Leia, Luca told me that she’ll be here. Don’t worry.”
