Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2438

"Dad, where will we be staying?" Tommy asked curiously. He was sitting in the backseat, listening to the conversation between the two adults.

It was his first visit to X City.

"Old Master Crawford built a small villa on the grounds of his ancestral home in X City. It’s looked after all year round. We’ll be staying there," Luke said. He had no plans to stay in a hotel.

X City was a unique city. He was the chief designer of the Crawford Ancestral Home that was built before by Old Master Crawford. The architecture of the Crawford Ancestral Home integrated the landscape of X City. It was distinctive.

If it wasn’t because Old Master Crawford did not allow it to be open to the public, that building would have become a must-see location for tourists.

According to the butler who managed the Crawford Ancestral Home, there were still groups of tourists who would check out the outer wall every day although it was not open to the public.

Crawford Ancestral Home was popular. A businessman once contacted Old Master Crawford to purchase the Crawford Ancestral Home, but he did not agree. He said it was reserved for the Crawfords’ younger generation.

Lanie and Rainie had not been there either, so Luke planned to stay at Crawford Ancestral Home to let them experience the beautiful landscape of X City.

"Fantastic!" Rainie raised her hands and clapped. She had long heard about the beauty and popularity of the Crawford Ancestral Home, but their Daddy never took them there.

It took more than three hours by car to get from A City to X City. They took a full four hours to reach their destination because of the snow.

It was dark when they arrived.

The butler of Crawford Ancestral Home had long been waiting for their arrival at the door. When he saw the car stop, he stepped forward and warmly welcomed them, "Master Crawford, young masters, and young lady, welcome to X City. I’m Otto Muller, the butler for the Crawford Ancestral Home."

"Hello, Mr. Muller," the kids greeted him obediently.

Luca looked at Otto. He was a kind-looking middle-aged man who looked like an X City folk.

Otto was looking at her too.

Luke had never brought Bianca here, but Otto knew that Luke was married. He greeted Luca, "Hello, Mrs. Crawford."

"Hello, I’m not..." Luca was embarrassed. She was probably the first person pretending to be herself. She was about to explain herself when Luke interrupted her, "Mr. Muller, is dinner ready?"

"Master Crawford, dinner is ready. Do you want to park the car outside?" Mr. Muller asked.

"Lliam and I will drive the cars in. Please take the kids inside," Luke looked at Luca.

Luca nodded, took Tommy’s and Rainie's hands, then looked at Lanie and said, "Let's go."

The children nodded and followed Luca into the Crawford Ancestral Home.

Luca took the children through the front yard of Crawford Ancestral Home and praised the design of the place. The courtyard alone highlighted the city's landscape features.

The place was even more beautiful after the blossoms of the spring snow.

"Ms. Luca, this place is so beautiful! Did you know that Daddy designed the place? Great-grandpa told us that he gave Daddy this land when he just graduated and asked him to design a villa. After Daddy looked at it, he mentioned that the land was not suitable for building a villa but was perfect for the Crawfords’ ancestral home. Great-grandpa asked him to do as he pleased and this is what we ended up with," Rainie said softly. She heard about the history of the Crawford Ancestral Home from Old Master Crawford.

"Your Daddy is awe-inspiring." Luca nodded in agreement.

Based on what Rainie said, Luke had just graduated at that time, and his design skills would likely be indistinct. Nevertheless, it was impressive that he was able to design such a beautiful place.
