Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3299

“After Percy brought Nina back from the Maldives the first time, he seemed a bit different. He even started asking me about relationship issues,” explained Luke.

That was the first time he had seen Percy like that, and he figured it was because his mindset had changed during that time.

Hence, Luke felt they must have gone to the Maldives.

Luca held his hand and clucked her tongue. “I can’t believe the usually decisive Mr. Mallory would be troubled by relationship matters one day.”

“I knew from that moment that I'd be attending their wedding one day,” added Luke.

Luca looked at his smug expression and could not help but laugh. “You’re so full of yourself! When I found out that Nina was with Percy, I didn’t think much of it. I just wanted her to be happy. Now, she really is.”

“We’re happy too,” replied Luke as he pulled her into an embrace.

As they walked into the living room, the cool air from the air conditioning helped to dispel the heat.

“Ah, that feels refreshing,” said Luca.

“Welcome back, Mr. Crawford, Ms. Craw,” greeted Aunt Neile as she walked out of the kitchen. She had heard them in the living room. “Are you two going back to Crawford Manor for dinner tonight?”

“No, we’ll just eat at home,” replied Luca.

“Alright, I made some smoothies. Would you like some?” asked Aunt Neile.

“Sure, let’s have two,” replied Luca. The weather in A City was really hot, especially when Jean and Anna were making a fuss at the entrance of Crawford Manor. The heat made it frustrating to stand around for too long.

She took Luke's hand, walked into the dining room, and said, “Will you join me for a glass of smoothie?”

“I’m truly honored,” Luke replied with a smile.

Aunt Neile brought in the smoothies, and after they finished, Luke’s phone rang.

“It’s Gale.” Luke picked up the phone and tapped to answer. “What’s the matter?”

“Boss, could you ask Dr. Craw when she’s available?” asked Gale.

“He's looking for you,” said Luke as he handed the phone to Luca.

She took it curiously and leaned in to ask, “Mr. Gale, what’s going on?”

“It’s about Gordan. He’s been discharged from the hospital and wants to know when you’re free to carry out dry needling treatment,” explained Gale.

Luca had agreed to help treat Gordan, but he had not heard from her even though he had been discharged for several days. Now, Gale was checking in.

Gordan was also considered to be working for Luke now.

After a few rounds of collaboration, Gale had developed a good rapport with Gordan.

If Gordan’s hand did not heal properly, it would affect his ability to take on future tasks.

“Sorry, I’ve been so busy lately that I forgot. I’m available now. I’ll head to his place. Can you send me the address?” replied Luca, still unaware of where Gordan was staying.

“No need to trouble yourself with the back and forth. I’ll bring him over. We’ll come by shortly. Thank you, Dr. Craw,” said Gale before hanging up.

Luca returned the phone to Luke. “Did you know Mr. Norton was discharged?”

“Gale mentioned it,” answered Luke.

“Why didn’t you tell me he was discharged? He still needs dry needling treatment for his hand. The nerves have been connected, but it’s also important to promote the growth of the nerves and muscles, or it'll take a long time for him to recover. He won't be able to take on tasks, then.” Luca sounded a bit annoyed and helpless.

“It slipped my mind,” explained Luke.

Since Gordan was recovering well, it had slipped his mind.

Luca remained silent.

“Why don’t you go take a nap in the bedroom before they arrive?” suggested Luke.

Luca shook her head. “I’m not going to sleep. I need to get ready.”
