Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3093

Luke reminded him, "This is the latest version of infrared alarms. It detects the body temperature of intruders. The intruder will be verified as a human before it'll trigger the alarm and alert the authorities."

Stan's expression changed when he heard Luke mention calling the police. He said, "Sir, it might just be a false alarm. Let me check on it. It's late at night. If it's a false alarm, it won't only disturb the police but also cause unnecessary trouble."

Luke grabbed Stan's collar.

Stan was not tall, and Luke just needed to slightly lift his hand to grab the collar of Stan's pajamas.

"I've already called the police," said Luke.

The look on Stan’s face changed. He looked down at his phone, trying to figure out how to discreetly notify the people outside.

Luke's next words, however, made him panic a bit. "Give me your phone."

"Mr. Crawford?" Stan let out a cold shiver and looked at him in astonishment.

"I’d like to check your phone's alarm system," replied Luke. At that moment, Stan had not turned off the alarm yet. The phone was still emitting a loud beeping sound.

Stan’s hand trembled slightly as he handed the phone to Luke.

Luke picked up his phone and turned off the alarm.

The beeping sound instantly disappeared, but the noises outside the yard continued.

Luke asked, "Stan, do you know how to fight?"

Stan was puzzled. Why was Luke asking him something like this?

He shook his head and answered, "I don't, Mr. Crawford. When I was hired as the butler, it was never mentioned that I needed to know these things..."

"Seriously? You don't?" Luke's eyes narrowed. "There might be thieves out there now. If you don't know how to defend yourself, how will you deal with them?"

Stan shivered again. "Deal with them? I don't know... Haven't we already called the police? The police near the attraction area are just nearby. They should be coming soon."

"Yes, the police are on their way," sneered Luke as he pushed Stan into the butler's quarters.

Stan did not understand what he meant. "Mr. Crawford?"

"You don’t know how to fight. If those thieves come in and hurt you, it won't be good. Stay in here," instructed Luke before closing the door.

He did not care whether Stan understood or not. Luke only needed to keep Stan locked inside to reduce the number of people he had to deal with.

Luke planned to block the door of the quarters with something. Before he could find anything, Stan opened the door again and said, "Mr. Crawford, I can't let you risk it alone."

A shadow of gloom flashed across Luke's eyes. If Stan could obediently stay in the room, he would not have said anything. He did not need someone who would cause trouble now.

However, since Stan insisted on coming out and standing with him...

Luke's eyes turned cold. When Stan stepped out of the quarters' door once again, Luke immediately struck him with a chop to the neck.

Stan felt a sharp pain in his neck, and everything went black before him.

Luke quickly helped him up and then let him sit down while leaning against the wall.

Stan was knocked out cold now. He would not be waking up anytime soon.

Luke casually made his way to the door. He took out a set of keys to unlock the main door of the old mansion.

Gale and the others were outside.

Meanwhile, in the garden, the intruders were startled by the blaring alarm.

"Damn it, isn't the alarm supposed to be off? What's going on now?" cursed one of the men with Caucasian facial features.
