Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 246

Chapter 246 Pampered by Luke's Supplementary Card

After Marie was brought away, Leia took the rest of her break halfheartedly and continued the shoot.

The tearful scene had been reshot from morning to night, but the director was not satisfied.

"Never mind. Let's wrap up for today. Go home and think through the scene and we'll try again tomorrow," the director said disappointedly to the male and female lead actors.

Leia was not in the mood to think about the shoot. She wanted to leave the set as soon as she could.

Her acting career was important, but it was not as important as finding an opportunity to meet Luke so that they could get married.

When the RV was about to leave the film set, Leia gave Xavier a call.

Xavier was at home playing chess with his father.

Lacey was pleased when she saw that Xavier and his father were at peace with each other. She kept on serving them fruits and drinks.

When Xavier's phone rang, he saw that it was from Leia. He answered the call, though his eyes remained on the chessboard. "Yes?" "Where are you now? Can we meet?" "Not now, maybe tomorrow. I'm playing chess with my father, and it's a close fight."

After that, Xavier made his move.

Daniel smiled and picked up one of his pieces, though he did not make his move. He did not know why his son had suddenly returned home to play chess with him, but he was nonetheless very satisfied.

"It's fine if we don't meet. Let's talk on the phone. Um... do you know that Bianca's father passed away?"

Xavier immediately sat up straight. "What? Bianca's father passed away?

Where did you hear that?" "So, you weren't informed. I dug around for information when the police came to the film set to take Marie away. They said that Marie was liable for Bianca's father's death. Two days ago..."

Before Leia could finish, Xavier ended the call.

Daniel, who was holding a chess piece in his hand, and Lacey, who was peeling an apple, heard what their son said earlier.

"Why did Bianca's father pass away?" As Lacey spoke, she accidentally cut her finger with the fruit knife.

"You should be careful too," Daniel said as he stood up from his seat.

The caretaker in the house quickly came over with the first-aid kit and bandaged Lacey's finger.

Xavier put on his jacket and prepared to leave the house. He had a gloomy expression on his face. "I'm not sure about the details, but I'll ask her for it."

He knew that Bianca would not answer his calls.

However, that did not stop him from trying.

Just when he was about to get into his car, Lacey came out with her coat and handbag. "I’ll go with you too."

Xavier stopped her. "You shouldn't go. I'll come and pick you up when I find out anything." He did not want to see how coldly Bianca treated her.

No mother would be willing to see their son being coldly treated by his wife.

If that happened, the relationship between mother and daughter-in-law would become worse.

Throughout the night, Xavier could not get through to Bianca. Eventually, his phone ran out of battery.

Xavier had found out the hospital Kevin was in. When he arrived at the hospital, the personnel told him that the patient's daughter had left.

Xavier displayed his marriage certificate and told them that he was the patient's daughter's husband and that he wanted to know more about the cause of the patient's death.

One of the nurses was an avid fan of entertainment gossip. She recognized that the man was Bianca's husband.

That was why she told him everything she knew.

Xavier's gaze turned cold and harsh. He knew that Marie was despicable, but not to that extent.
