Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3295

“Get lost.” Luke's gaze was cold and sinister. If today were not about Percy and Nina, there was no way he would have let Jean off so easily.

How dare a useless piece of trash like him come here to cause trouble? Such thoughts crossed Luke’s mind as he glanced at Luca.

She gave him a faint smile, indicating she was fine.

Jean left with Anna with a gloomy expression on his face.

The few bodyguards spoke up once they saw that the matter was resolved, “Mr. Crawford, Mr. Mallory, if there's nothing else, we'll head out. If you need anything in the future, just reach out to us.”

“Alright, thanks,” replied Percy.

The person most upset by today’s events was not him or Nina. It was probably Luke.

After all, he and Bianca truly loved each other, yet Jean had spoken so disgracefully. Knowing how protective Luke was of his wife, it was unlikely he would let Jean’s apology be the end of it.

After Jean left, Percy and Nina did not linger either. They said their goodbyes to Luke and left.

In the car, Nina gave Percy a strange look.

“Babe, if you’ve got something to say, just say it,” said Percy helplessly.

“Would you even tell me if I asked?” asked Nina. She felt like there were things he was keeping from her.

“That depends.” Percy nodded, knowing what she wanted to ask.

“Well, if you’re not going to tell me, there’s no point in asking,” replied Nina, looking at his profile. After being with him for so long, she understood that he kept some things from her for her own good.

Besides, those things did not really concern her, so whether she knew or not did not make much of a difference.

However, what happened today had sparked her curiosity again, and she truly wanted to find out about it this time.

“If you don’t ask, how do you know if I’ll tell you or not?” responded Percy.

“That's true, but...” Nina paused for a moment. “I still think you won’t tell me. But I hope you will. I’d like to know the truth.”

“Maybe try asking differently,” suggested Percy. He did not want to hide things from Nina, but some things had to be kept secret. However, asking in a different way might work.

Nina’s eyes lit up as she thought of a different approach. “Luca’s real identity is special, isn’t it?”

“Yes,” answered Percy. That was all he could tell her.

“Alright.” Nina let out a sigh of relief. She finally understood why she had been feeling so uneasy.

Her heart fluttered with excitement, and even her hands trembled slightly.

Luca’s identity was special. That was exactly what she had suspected all along.

Even though there were still many unanswered questions, Nina was satisfied with the answer she got for now.

…

On the other hand, Jean and Anna stormed into their house.

Marie walked up to them with a smile and asked, “Did you get the money?”

Anna shot her a glare, then turned to Jean and said, “Look at the woman you brought in. She’s always thinking about money. She's a curse! We were doing just fine before she came around. Now that she's here, we can't even get the money.”

Jean did not want to hear any more of her nonsense and said bluntly, “Go get the agreement.”

Anna frowned. “There’s nothing wrong with the agreement.”

“We won’t know until I look at it!” Jean snapped. He thought that if Nina dared to make such claims, there must be something wrong with the agreement.

Anna was startled for a moment by his outburst.

“Get the agreement,” Jean repeated when she did not move.

“I’ll go find it,” replied Anna, rushing to the bedroom.

She had never taken the agreement seriously, so this mess caught her completely off guard.

However, he was not stupid. He knew this agreement would not hold water.

As Marie thought about this, her eyes fell on the two small lines in the agreement.

“Here, look at this.” She pointed out to Jean.

Jean's eyesight had deteriorated from years of indulgence, so he had to lean in close to read the small text.

One clause stated that after receiving the money, they were not allowed to bother Nina anymore.

Another said that if they violated that clause or tried to ask for more money, they would have to return everything they had been paid. That would be the lump sum payment from Nina to cover Anna's support.

“Damn it!” Jean’s eyes filled with rage as he glared at Anna.

“What is it?” Anna saw Jean’s reaction and started to feel uneasy. “What’s wrong with the agreement?”

“Where were your eyes when you signed this? How could you sign something like this?!” questioned Jean.

Anna grabbed the agreement and looked at the part he was pointing to.

The print was tiny, so she picked up a magnifying glass from the coffee table and read it word by word. By the time she finished, her face had gone pale.

It was over...

These were the real terms of the agreement.

All that talk about severing ties did not mean anything.

“How could this happen…” Anna muttered to herself, collapsing onto the couch.

“You just signed the agreement like that? Without even reading it?” Jean questioned her again.

“How was I supposed to know they’d pull something like this?” Anna could not take his accusations anymore and snapped back, “If it were you, you would’ve signed it too!”
