Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3183

The following day, Gale, Rain, and Gordan showed up together at Luke's villa.

When Luca came downstairs and saw them, she was startled for a moment. Then, she immediately realized the situation. She smiled and greeted them, "Good morning, Mr. Norton, Mr. Gale, and Ms. Rain."

"Good morning, Dr. Craw," they replied in unison.

Since Aunt Neile was there, they could not address her as Bianca.

"Are you all here to discuss matters with Mr. Crawford?" asked Luca.

"Yes, we need to talk to Luke," replied Gordan, speaking for the group.

Luca pondered for a moment and said, "We're having tacos for lunch today. Why don't you stay and join us?"

The three of them knew Luca's home-cooked meals were delicious, but they hesitated and shook their heads at the thought of Luke.

Gale said, "Dr. Craw, we'll leave after discussing things with the boss. You don't need to worry about us."

"If the discussion takes a long time, you should stay for lunch. It's decided," Luca insisted. After all, Aunt Neile had prepared plenty of ingredients, and she could always order more meatballs and such online to make sure there was enough food.

Just as Gale was about to say something, Luke's voice came from the stairs. "Stay for lunch."

Luca turned to look at Luke as he made his way down the stairs and smiled at him. "I'll make some coffee for you all."

Then, she turned to the three guests. "Have you had breakfast yet?"

"Not yet."

"Yes, we have."

Gale replied at the same time Rain did.

Realizing their answers were different, they glanced at each other. It was more like glaring at each other instead.

They were secretly blaming each other for the conflicting responses.

Luca watched them exchange glances and understood immediately.

They had not eaten yet.

Since Rain and Gale lived together, they should have left together. If one of them had eaten, the other would have too.

Still, one of them said yes and the other said no. It meant they had not eaten but did not want to trouble her.

Luca then turned to look at Gordan.

He was the exception since no one lived with him.

"Mr. Norton, have you eaten?" asked Luca.

Gordan shook his head honestly and answered, "No, I haven't."

"Alright, I'll prepare three servings of eggs on toast. Eat first, then you can discuss your matters," said Luca. Although their discussion seemed unrelated to her, the timing was actually very relevant to her.

After all, they were dealing with Matysh.

He came to A City because of her.

"It’s okay..." said Rain, puzzled by Gale's insistence on saying they had not eaten.

Was he hinting at Luca to make them breakfast? How would Luke feel about this? After all, their boss was very possessive of his wife.

"You must eat. Your boss hasn't eaten either, so join him. I'll make four servings of eggs on toast," Luca insisted, even though she knew Aunt Neile had already prepared breakfast for Luke. After all, they were here to help her, so how could she let them go hungry?

"Listen to Luca," said Luke, catching the pleading looks from Gale and Rain. He then sat down on the couch.

"Dr. Craw, why are you having oatmeal while we have toast?" asked Rain, feeling puzzled.

"Would you like some oatmeal? There’s more in the kitchen," replied Luca, misunderstanding her question.

Rain quickly shook her head. "No, toast is fine. I'm just curious why you’re having something different."

Luca smiled and explained, "This is the breakfast Aunt Neile prepared. If I have the toast, the oatmeal will go to waste."

It suddenly dawned on Rain that Luca had purposely made the toast, aware that they had not had breakfast.

Since today’s breakfast for Luke and Luca was originally oatmeal, she gave Luca an apologetic smile.

If they had come later or eaten before arriving, it would not have been necessary for Luca to prepare anything extra.

However, they were also accustomed to occasionally skipping a meal, so there was no set rule about having breakfast.

"If the toasts aren't enough, there's some more left. If that’s still not enough, there’s only oatmeal left," said Luca. She was unsure of their appetites, so she had prepared according to Luke’s portion size.

However, she made a bit extra just in case.

"This is plenty," replied Gale. He did not expect to come over so early today and have such a good breakfast. He secretly marveled at their luck to get such a yummy breakfast.

Gale felt quite pleased thinking about the lunch they would have later at noon.

After breakfast, Luca brought out a pot of coffee.

Gale took it from her and said, "Ms. Craw, you go ahead with your tasks. I'll take care of this."

Then, he carried the pot of coffee upstairs.

Aunt Neile came out from the kitchen just as Luca was about to clear the dishes. She took over. "Ms. Craw, let me handle this. You should take a rest."
