Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3283

The moment the man finished speaking, several people showed a hint of regret on their faces.

They only knew that Luca was Luke's lover. They had no idea she had such capabilities, or that Old Master Crawford had already accepted her.

“There's something else you all don’t know,” said one of them, and everyone’s attention shifted to his face.

“What is it?” a woman asked. “Is there something else that’s amazing about her?”

“That woman is something else. Do you remember Jack Norman’s wife? She fell ill, and it was Luca who figured out what was wrong and prescribed the treatment that helped her recover.

"My relative, who’s a nurse at the hospital, said her dry needling technique is different from everyone else’s, but it’s more effective. The thing is, she rarely treats anyone. If you don’t have a connection with her, she won’t even acknowledge you,” explained the man.

He was not just making this up. Luke had made the arrangements.

It was time to let these people know what Luca was capable of.

If she kept staying low-profile, people would still gossip even after she revealed her true identity.

It would be better to shut them up now before that happened.

“She's really something else!” murmured the woman. “If I had known, I would’ve made small talk with her. Maybe she could treat my father’s illness!”

“Exactly! Your dad’s been sick for so long. She might really be able to help him recover,” someone else chimed in.

Everyone then entered the banquet hall.

Luca sat down with the children at the seats that had been arranged for them.

Percy and Nina had made sure to place her close to the front. The moment she sat down, she could feel people looking in her direction.

Perhaps they were not looking at her directly, but they were definitely glancing her way.

Luca felt uncomfortable. It was not like she was not used to being stared at, especially with Old Master Crawford sitting nearby, who naturally drew attention.

However, when they were outside in the reception area, they had not been sizing her up like this. Now, all of a sudden, everyone seemed to be watching her. She had a feeling something was about to happen.

“Ms. Luca, so many people are staring at you,” Tommy whispered in her ear.

“Are they really looking at me?” questioned Luca.

“Yes, they’re all looking at you,” Tommy confirmed confidently.

Luca could no longer sit still anymore. She rose to her feet and said to the three kids, “I’m going to check on the bride in the dressing room. Stay here and behave. Don’t wander off.”

“Got it, Ms. Luca,” the three kids replied in unison.

Luca smiled at Old Master Crawford and Mr. Griffin, then hurriedly left, feeling like she was escaping.

It was not until she stepped into the bride’s dressing room that she felt the prickling stares disappear.

“Luca?” Nina glanced at her from the side.

Luca came back to her senses and smiled warmly. “You look gorgeous!”

“It’s nice, but why do I have to wear all this jewelry again?” Nina was on the verge of tears. She had to wear all these heavy accessories when she left the house and during the ceremony.

Even though they were beautiful, wearing them all at once made her look overly luxurious, almost like a show-off.

“Well, you’ve got to let everyone see how much your in-laws adore you at the banquet, right?” Luca walked behind Nina and took over the job of helping her put on the jewelry from the stylist. “I’ll handle it.”

The stylist nodded and stepped aside.

Luca carefully placed each piece of jewelry on Nina, one by one.

Nina could feel the weight on her gradually increasing.

“This is the burden of being spoiled.” Nina let out a sigh, touching the jewelry adorning her neck. There were a few gold necklaces and a few encrusted with diamonds and other gemstones.

“Give me your hand,” said Luca, picking up the bracelets and bangles.
