Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2441

After Luke cleaned himself up, Luca walked into the bathroom, freshened herself up, and changed into a fresh set of clothes.

When Luca walked out of the bathroom, Luke had already put on his clothes. He was talking on the phone. She unconsciously treaded lightly across the room.

Luke nodded at her and turned on the speaker. It was Percy on the other end of the line.

Percy asked, “You’re not in A City now, huh?”

“Yeah. I’m in X City,” answered Luke.

“Why did you go there?”

“Same as you. I’m running away from someone.” Luke walked toward Luca and held her in his arms.

The fresh and nice scent on his body greeted Luca. It was the lemon scent left on him after he shaved and put on clean clothes.

“Running away from someone?” Percy let out a chuckle. “Could it be that you’ve gotten yourself into trouble for having a love affair?”

“Shut up,” Luke replied with a deep voice. He lowered his head and glanced at Luca. How could he have any love affairs? He had only been in love with Luca his whole life.

She was now Luca, but she was Bianca back then.

Nina’s voice came from the other end of the line. “What are you talking about? Hurry up and get straight to the point. Otherwise, we’ll have to go back to A City.”

Percy, who was on the other end of the line, had no choice but to say, “Okay. Since you’re there, we should head to X City for a vacation too. Let’s talk about this after the New Year.”

Luke raised his brows and asked, “Aren’t you overseas?”

“Nah, don’t even mention it. I got tricked into coming back here, and I’m looking for somewhere to go for a vacation. You’re staying at the Crawford Ancestral Home, right?” Percy asked.

Percy was enjoying their vacation abroad at first, and they were not planning to come back after the new year.

The new year was the peak period when rumors flew around in the Mallory family.

However, Old Master Mallory came up with something crazy when Percy refused to come back. The old man said he was dying.

Percy believed it. He came back only to realize that it was nothing like what they said. Old Master Mallory was not ill or dying because of sickness. Percy wanted to take Nina somewhere else now and get away from A City, the hotbed of rumors.

“Yes. There’s a guest room here for the two of you,” said Luke.

“Okay. I’ll change the route now.” After Percy said that, he stopped the car on the roadside and changed the destination of the navigation.

As Luca watched Luke put his phone back in his pocket, she asked, “Is Mr. Mallory coming here?”

“Yes.” Luke nodded and glanced at the time. He speculated, “He’ll probably arrive in the afternoon.”

“Okay. Remember to inform Mr. Muller to clean up the guest room for them,” said Luca. Although she was surprised that they were coming, she was happy that Nina would be coming.

She stopped when she was walking out of the bedroom at the thought of Nina coming here. She turned around, looked at Luke with a stern expression on her face, and said, “Mr. Crawford,”

“Yes?” Luke walked toward Luca.

“Nina’s coming. I think I should move out of this bedroom…” said Luca. She did not want Nina to overthink.

After all, there were many rooms in the Crawford Ancestral Home.

“No.” Luke rejected her suggestion. Luca had to sleep with him no matter what. Otherwise, he would not be able to fall asleep alone as he had gotten used to her sleeping by his side.

“Mr. Crawford…” Luca was helpless. She did not know what to say.

Luke turned to look at her and said, “Do you think Nina doesn’t know that we’re sleeping together in the same bedroom?’

“What do you mean…” Luca looked at him in surprise.

“She already saw me going in and out of your bedroom when you took her in back then.” Luke pointed out to her as he refused to let Luca come up with any excuses to not sleep with him.

“Nina saw me? I was being careful…” Luca wondered if Luke was lying to her just to make her stay.
