Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3312

“Gale!” Rain felt like she was about to tear him apart. Why did he always have to press her sore spots?

She shoved his hand away from her face, itching to slap him and swell that cocky, handsome face of his. “Even if no one likes me, I’m perfectly happy being on my own. Do I need you to remind me?”

“Rain, don’t be so harsh on me.” Gale struggled to keep his eyes open. The alcohol hit him harder now. He felt uneasy, and her shouting shook him to his core.

“Ugh! You drunk idiot! You should’ve stayed passed out somewhere. If I have to deal with you again, I'm the one who's asking for trouble,” replied Rain as she stood up to leave.

However, his next words froze her in place.

“Rain, no other man likes you, so can you not like anyone else either?”

Rain frowned and turned around. Her heart suddenly leaped with joy, even though she quickly pushed the feeling down as she was unsure about it.

“What do you mean by that, Gale?”

“I...” Gale opened his mouth wide but could only manage to say one word.

“Speak up! I’m giving you one last chance. If you don’t say something good, I’ll poison you mute! And if I don’t, I’ll make sure you never show up in front of me again!”

Rain was fierce. Her eyes reddened slightly from the excitement stirring in her chest.

“Luca said something today. Women don’t just randomly start learning how to cook. Especially someone like you, who never had any interest in it before. There’s got to be a reason.”

Gale looked stiff, knowing if he did not get it all out now, Rain might actually make good on her threat.

He did not want to be silenced. He definitely did not want to not be able to see her again either.

“So?” Rain frowned. What did all this mean?

What did Luca mean? Was there a misunderstanding here?

“So, you must’ve fallen for some random guy, which is why you started learning how to cook,” Gale blurted out.

Rain raised her eyebrows. A rush of happiness filled her chest as the corners of her mouth lifted ever so slightly.

“Well, I guess she's not wrong,” Rain purposely said.

Gale sat up straight. He had drunk too much and could not see the change in Rain's expression. With a miserable look on his face, he asked, “So, I'm not wrong? You really have fallen for some random guy?”

“He’s not just some random guy,” replied Rain, finding it pretty amusing to toy with him like this.

“Yes, he is! Any guy who isn’t me is just some random guy!” argued Gale, pointing at himself. “Why would you like someone else? What’s wrong with me? But that doesn’t make sense. You just said I'm a great man! Rain, were you lying to me?”

As Rain watched him whine and pout, she could not help but feel both delighted and helpless at the same time.

Did he really have too much to drink?

How was his logic still so sharp? He remembered everything they talked about earlier and kept making these points without stopping. Was he just pretending?

Rain glanced at him. It did not seem like it. “I’m not lying to you.”

“You are! You must be! You think I’m not good enough, and that’s why you like another guy.” Gale slumped back onto the couch, looking defeated.

"Gale," Rain called out in a gentle voice.

Gale's gaze was empty.

Rain looked closely. Oh, wait, were those tears in his eyes?

She was suddenly excited, like she had made a new discovery. “Are you crying?”
