Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2448

Nina smacked her tongue. She could not help but mumble, “The two of them are truly prodigal.”

"Wine is meant to be drunk. Of course, it’s perfect to enjoy a glass of good wine during happy times. Besides, Mr. Crawford and Mr. Mallory are people who can afford the wine," said Luca with a smile. She shot a glance at Otto and nodded at him.

Otto nodded and left.

Nina could not help but exclaim, “That makes sense.”

"Are you worried that there’ll be a dent in Mr. Mallory’s wallet?” Luca could not help but tease her. She picked up the cattail leaf fan and fanned the grill so that the charcoal could burn evenly.

Luca turned on the ventilating fan in the gazebo too. It was to prevent the concentration of carbon monoxide from getting too high.

Luca would not have chosen a charcoal grill if it were not for the kids who wanted to try the traditional way of barbecuing.

Nina blushed. She immediately shook her head and said, “No. Stop talking nonsense.”

"You're blushing. Even so, you're Mrs. Mallory now. It’s normal for you to be worried about Mr. Mallory's expenses." Luca smiled. She saw the three kids holding hands together and walking toward them when she looked up.

Luca pushed the glass door open and said, “Hurry up. Come in.”

“Wow. It’s a feast.” Tommy was the first to come in. He could not help but cheer happily when he saw the food placed on the table.

After Lanie and Rainie came in, Luca asked, “We can start barbecuing. What would you like to have?”

"I'd like to have barbecued chicken wings," Tommy spoke first.

Luca took two chicken wings and looked at Lanie and Rainie.

“Ms. Luca, I’d like to have steak,” said Rainie.

“Okay. What about Lanie?” Luca picked up the steak Rainie wanted to eat. Then, she asked Lanie.

Lanie was the eldest brother. He always let his younger brother and sister choose first. It made Luca cherish him more for being sensible.

“I’ll have some ribs. Ms. Luca, can I barbecue them myself?” Lanie asked.

“Of course. Ribs for you. Here you go,” replied Luca. She handed Lanie take some ribs. “If you’d like to barbecue the food yourself, just grab anything you’d like to eat.”

"Thank you, Ms. Luca." Lanie took the plate of ribs from her. He sat on a chair and placed the ribs on the grill. Then, he looked at Nina and said, "Ms. Nina, what would you like to have? I'll help you grill them."

“Thank you, but I can do it myself,” replied Nina. She picked up the chicken wings and placed them on the grill.

When Tommy and Rainie saw Lanie grilling the food himself, they wanted to grill the food themselves too. They took the ingredients from Luca, sat down, and began to grill their food.

Luca was overwhelmed with mixed feelings when she saw that.

Her kids had grown up.

Barbecuing was all about enjoying the fun of grilling your own food.

Luca picked up a piece of steak, sat down, and placed it on the grill.

Luke's favorite food was probably still steak. He did not have to spit out any bones or eat with his hands.

On the second floor of the villa.

Luke finally won two consecutive rounds.

Percy was unconvinced as he cried out, “One more. You’re just lucky.”

“Again? Your wife would’ve finished her dinner if we play another round,” said Luke. He walked toward the window wall and stared at the garden.

He could see what was happening in the garden gazebo.

The others were already barbecuing there.

“What do you mean?” Percy walked toward the window wall and noticed that Nina and the others were already barbecuing. He raised his eyebrows and asked, “They started barbecuing without telling us?”

“It was to satisfy your desire to win.” Luke placed the cue stick on the table and said, “You lost. I’m going down for dinner now.”

He believed Luca had already grilled some food for him.

“Fine. I lost. It’s not like I can’t afford the wine,” Percy replied unconcernedly.
