Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2507

“I’m here to help.” Luca smiled and walked into the kitchen. She picked up the apron and put it on.

Aunt Neile smiled and replied, “Luckily, the kitchen is spacious enough. Otherwise, there’s no space for the two of you to stand in here and help.”

“Aunt Neile, what should I do?” Luca asked.

“I prepared soup today, but I haven’t added the seasonings into it. Why don’t you handle the seasoning?” said Aunt Neile. Vivian was here, so she prepared a few more dishes.

"Okay." Luca opened the lid of the pot and realized Aunt Neile had prepared butternut squash soup. It was good for health, especially for people like Luke, who always worked overtime and was busy with work.

Luca said, “Aunt Neile, save some in the pot to keep it warm. Mr. Crawford can have some when he’s back.”

Aunt Neile immediately asked, “Mr. Crawford isn’t coming back for dinner tonight?”

"Didn't he tell you? He's working overtime." Luca was a little surprised. Luke would inform Aunt Neile that he was not going home for dinner back then to prevent the wastage of food.

Aunt Neile was a little surprised too, but she immediately understood. She smiled and said, “He didn’t, but Mr. Crawford informed you. So, I guess that’s considered telling someone.”

Luca's face slightly reddened when Aunt Neile teased her. After she seasoned the soup, she said, "Aunt Neile, are there any dishes you haven't cooked? Let me do it."

“Young Master Tommy said he’d like to have spaghetti bolognese today. I was about to prepare it. Ms. Craw, why don’t you prepare it? They love your homemade food.” Aunt Neile decided to let Luca take over the chef’s position, while she would help her out with Vivian.

After all, Luca’s cooking skills were truly good. Both adults and children loved her homemade food.

Luca took the spatula from Aunt Neile without a second thought and prepared spaghetti bolognese for the kids.

Half an hour later, all the dishes were ready.

Aunt Neile saved some for Luke, while the rest were served on the dining table.

They started having their dinner.

The three kids quickly finished the spaghetti bolognese made by Luca, and they ate some of the other dishes too.

It was time for the kids to watch their cartoon show after dinner.

Luca picked up her phone and glanced at the temperature outside, then she said to Aunt Neile, “Aunt Neile, stop cleaning up. Go home now. There’ll be a cold snap tonight. You should go home earlier.”

Aunt Neile looked at the dining table awkwardly and said, “Ms. Craw, it’d be better for me to clean up the dining table before I leave.”

"Aunt Neile, leave it to me. It's getting late, and it'll grow colder. It might rain too. You can't tell if it's going to snow and rain at the same time." Luca took the tablecloth from Aunt Neile and urged her to go home.

Vivian managed to figure out what they were talking about, and she asked with confusion, "The temperature's dropping tonight?"

“Yes. Extreme and sudden temperature drops often happen this month. Ms. Craw, I’ll leave it to you, then.” Aunt Neile took off her apron.

She refused to suffer the horrendous weather condition as well.

Vivian shot a thoughtful glance outside the window and asked, “But it was warm this morning. Luca, did the weather forecast make a mistake?”

“I don’t think so. The cold snap often happens out of the blue. Is the heating in your room warm enough? Let me give you another blanket if you’re afraid of the cold.” Luca noticed Vivian was looking outside the window. Vivian probably knew Gordan was waiting outside the entrance…

It was late. Gordan should have left…

He would not be that silly, standing there waiting for Vivian.

Gordan did not look like the kind of person who would be willing to lose out on anything.

Vivian fell silent, and she was lost in thoughts.
