Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2603

It was two a.m.

Luke ended the international video conference and took a shower in his bedroom’s bathroom. Then, he headed to the master bedroom.

It was late at night, and every corner of the villa was silent.

Luke gently pushed the bedroom door open. Luca had left the desk lamp turned on for him.

The dim light lit up the darkness of the night, washing away all his weariness at that moment.

Luke gently got onto the bed and carefully lay down sideways so that he would not press on Luca’s hand.

“Mhm, Luke?” Even though Luke had tried his best not to wake her up, Luca still woke up and looked at him drowsily.

“It’s me. Go to sleep,” Luke replied in a low voice.

Luca subconsciously leaned closer to the heat source and buried her face in Luke’s chest.

Luke could feel an uncontrollable desire arousing in him as her soft body leaned closer to him.

He remembered those emotions he had been suppressing.

Luke slipped his arms around Luca’s waist and asked in a low voice, “Are you busy tomorrow?”

Luca, who had yet to go back to sleep, heard Luke asking her a question. She opened her eyes slightly and pondered for a moment. Then, she closed her eyes and replied, “No.”

“You’re not busy, huh…” Luke drawled. He was satisfied with her answer. Then, he turned around and pinned her to the bed.

Luca opened her eyes as her heat source moved from her side to above her. She gave the man in front of her a confused look.

Luke could not bear to see the way she looked at him confusingly and the drowsiness in her eyes. However, the emotions within him urged him.

“Luke, my hand is injured…” Luca was completely awake now, and her cheeks began to turn red.

“It’s okay. I’ll be careful. I won't hurt you.” After that, Luke immediately sealed her lips with a kiss to stop her from talking.

The night sky was aglow with bright shining stars. The couple was softly whispering their love to each other.

…

The next day.

The maid who was transferred here from Crawford Manor had arrived at the villa when Luca woke up in the morning. The maid placed the pot pie prepared earlier by Aunt Neile into the oven and baked it.

The soy milk maker was making soy milk as well. Everything that needed to be done in the kitchen had been done.

Luca noticed that there was nothing she could help with.

“Ms. Craw, you’re awake. Breakfast will be ready in 15 minutes. Why don’t you wait in the living room?” The maid smiled and greeted Luca when she saw her standing at the kitchen door.

“Okay.” Luca nodded and walked out of the kitchen.

Luca did not expect Luke, who was busy working the whole day yesterday, to have already arranged for a maid to come over. She woke up early in the morning without having to do anything.

Luca dragged herself to the living room wearily and sat on the sofa. She only found out why Luke asked her if she was busy or not when she woke up today.

If Luca was not busy, then he could have his way with her.

Luca picked up her phone and asked the maid working for the Norman family how Jack and Queenie were doing,

She let out a sigh of relief when the maid replied to her that everything was fine.

Luca picked up the remote control next to her, turned on the television, and switched to the news.

The news broadcast was reporting about the morning financial news.

As usual, they reported the stock market news on Friday. After in-depth analyses of the current market, they reported financial news.

Luca glanced at the time and rose to her feet. Then, she replied, “Serve it on the table. I’ll wake the kids up.”

Lanie and the others had yet to come downstairs. Luca reckoned that they had not gotten back into the swing of things, so she headed upstairs right away.

Luca pushed Tommy’s bedroom door open. Tommy was still in bed.

If it were during the holidays, the kids would wake up an hour later than usual. Hence, the kids had kept the habit of waking up one hour later than usual even after the holidays.

Luca walked into Tommy’s room and gently patted the child’s shoulder. “Tommy, it’s time to get out of bed.”

“Um, Ms. Luca…” Tommy opened his eyes and glanced at her. Then he closed his eyes again.

“You’re going back to school today. Did you forget about that?” Luca reminded her youngest son in a soft voice. She realized how adorable he looked sleeping in.

Tommy immediately opened his eyes when he heard that. “Back to school?”

"Yes. Hurry up and get out of bed. Wash up and go downstairs for breakfast," replied Luca. She stood up, opened the closet, and took Tommy's uniform as well as some warm clothes out.

Tommy sat up on the bed and rubbed his eyes. "I forgot to set the alarm last time before I went to bed. Ms. Luca, luckily you woke me up. Otherwise, I would’ve been late."

“It’s still early. Go and wash yourself up.” Luca smiled and held Tommy’s hand as he got out of bed. “Let me check on Lanie and Rainie.”

“Okay.” Tommy was wide awake. He walked into the bathroom to take a shower.

Luca headed to Rainie's bedroom. Rainie had already woken up, and she was about to head downstairs.

“Good morning, Ms. Luca.” Rainie gave Luca a sweet smile and greeted her when she saw her open the door.

“Good morning. Hurry up. Go downstairs and have your breakfast.” Luca smiled. She could not help but exclaim how good her kids were when she saw them behaving themselves.

At the same time, Lanie walked out of his bedroom. He saw Luca standing at Rainie’s bedroom door and asked, “Ms. Luca, did Rainie sleep in?”
