Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2714

"Why don't you ask around? Besides, what does your brother do for a living? I wonder if his job matches the girl's job," said Mrs. Selley. She wanted Luca to help.

Luca felt helpless listening to what she said.

Amur showed no interest in this. Why did Mrs. Selley sound like she had already decided for him?

“It’d be better if you can ask him in person.” The moment Luca finished her sentence, she found the key in her pocket. When she was about to take it out and open the door, the door opened.

“I have a crush. You don’t have to worry about that.” Amur looked straight into Mrs. Selley’s eyes with a mask on his face. Then, he took the bag that Luca was carrying and went into the house.

Mrs. Selley was dumbfounded as she remained rooted to the spot. She did not know her voice was so loud that Amur, who was in the house, heard her.

Was the soundproofing of the apartment that bad?

Luca noticed the awkward expression on Mrs. Selley’s face. She smiled to ease the situation. “Mrs. Selley, you heard him too. Let’s forget about this.”

After that, Luca walked into the apartment and closed the door behind her.

Mrs. Selley glanced at her pet dog. It kept quiet while looking at her standing awkwardly outside someone else’s apartment unit.

"It's so embarrassing. It's my first attempt at matchmaking," grumbled Mrs. Selley as she quickly walked back to her apartment.

Luca followed Amur to the kitchen. After she watched him put the two bags of ingredients on the kitchen counter, she pursed her lips and asked, "You heard everything?"

"The soundproofing isn't that good. Besides, that woman has a loud voice," answered Amur. He was disgusted at the thought of Mrs. Selley trying to set him up with another woman.

He hated busybodies like her.

“Amur, maybe you can actually think about it,” Luca suddenly exclaimed.

"It'd be better for me not to cause any trouble for the others." Amur smiled bitterly. He looked at the two bags of ingredients and turned to look at her. "How are we able to finish all this?"

“I did buy more. You must be waiting for his orders in A City these days. That’s why I’ll prepare more food to put in the fridge. You only have to warm it when you’re hungry.” Luca bought some ingredients to make some unbaked pot pies for Amur so that he could have her homemade food more often.

These could be left in the fridge, and they could last for a long time.

“Okay.” Amur nodded and helped Luca to take the ingredients out of the bag.

“Why are you wearing a mask at home? Did you catch a cold?” asked Luca. However, Amur sounded alright when she listened to him.

“No…” Amur did not lie to her.

He knew Luca very well. If he admitted that he caught a cold, his lies would eventually be exposed.

“Your face…” The expression on Luca’s face became stern. “Take it off.”

“It’s nothing…” said Amur. He did not want Luca to see his swollen face.

Amur immediately fell asleep when he lay on the bed after arriving at the apartment. He had yet to reduce the swelling in his face. He noticed that the swelling had gotten more serious when he woke up.

“You’ll have to take it off while we’re having dinner later. Amur, show me now.” Luca forced him.

Amur had no choice but to take the mask off helplessly.

“Why is it so serious? Did he hit you?” Luca was talking about Abel.

Amur nodded and reached out to her. “Give it to me.”

Luca knew he was asking for her phone. Therefore, she took out her phone and handed it to him.
