Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2381

When they arrived at the villa, the kids came forward and surrounded them. It lightened up the atmosphere.

“Daddy, does your holiday start tomorrow?” Tommy held Luke’s hands and looked at him eagerly.

The kids hoped that the adults could start their holidays earlier. That way, they could have time to accompany them.

It had been a long time since their family celebrated New Year’s together happily.

The kids hardly felt any festive cheer during New Year’s celebrations when the impostor Bianca was still here with them. The impostor Bianca would turn Crawford Manor upside down and ruin the festive mood.

She argued with Susan every day. It was just like when their grandmother was still living in the house with them. It was chaotic.

Now, their mother had finally come back. That was why they hoped that they could start the holidays earlier and spend the rest of the time with them.

“I still have to work tomorrow,” replied Luke. T Corporation would let the employees start their holidays after tomorrow.

However, that did not mean that Luke would go on holiday as well.

“Ah, there’s one more day to go.” Tommy pouted. He thought he would be able to keep his parents by his side tomorrow. Then, he lifted his head and looked at Luca.

“I’ll be working too.” Luca smiled and looked at the child. She took off her coat and hung it on the hanger stand.

“Daddy, you’re the boss. Why can’t you take a day off earlier to accompany us?” Tommy swung Luke’s hands and whined.

Rainie, who was standing beside them, could no longer stand it. She quickly came forward and pulled her younger brother away. Then, she said, "Tommy, Daddy's busy with his work. He'll be able to keep your company once the holiday starts."

“It’s unlikely that Daddy will be available during the holidays,” Lanie said calmly. They all knew how busy Luke was during the holidays every year.

It was especially so during New Year’s.

People would drop by their house with different kinds of excuses. Some of them could not be turned down. Luke would be much busier than he usually was.

“Why don’t we go on vacation to Maxwell City this coming New Year?” Luke suggested after he noticed that the kids were complaining.

It was not easy for the family to reunite again, and Luke did not want to spend his festive holidays entertaining the guests.

“Yes! Yes!” Tommy immediately clapped his hands and agreed to it.

Lanie let out a sigh and looked at his father. “Daddy, you haven’t called Great-grandpa back, have you?”

“Why?” Luke indeed had not returned Old Master Crawford’s call.

“Great-grandpa came looking for you today. He said he tried to reach you but he couldn’t get through. That’s why he called the house phone number. Aunt Neile was the one who answered the call. He told Aunt Neile something,” said Lanie. Aunt Neile had put him on the speaker, so Lanie heard what Old Master Crawford said too.

Luke picked up his phone and glanced at it. He had muted his phone before he attended the meeting.

“What did he say?” Luke asked. Judging from the look on Lanie’s face, Luke knew that Old Master Crawford must have bad news to bring him.

“You can ask Aunt Neile,” replied Lanie.

Aunt Neile happened to be walking out of the kitchen at this time. When she saw Luke, she came forward and said, "Mr. Crawford, you're back."

“Did Old Master Crawford call?” Luke asked. He held Tommy’s hands that were tugging on his sleeve restlessly.

Aunt Neile nodded and told Luke what Old Master Crawford had told her, “He said your mother couldn’t reach you. That’s why she contacted Old Master Crawford and said that she wanted to come back here to celebrate New Year’s. He wants you to get ready for it.”

"She's coming back?" Luke frowned. He had muted Allison's text messages as she kept on sending him dozens of messages every day. He would only read them when he had the time to do so.

Naturally, he would not answer her calls either.

Even if he knew Allison called, he would not return her calls either. After all, she would only be talking about getting plastic surgery.

However, there was no cure for her face. She was the only one who had not realized that.
