Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3316

“Yes,” replied Luke helplessly. “She’s had several surgeries abroad, but they couldn’t fully fix her skin. Now, she’s planning to come back and continue treatment here.”

“She still thinks her face can be restored…” Luca was rendered speechless. While the standards of cosmetic and reconstructive surgery in the country were considered good, Allison’s condition was not something that could be fully healed anywhere.

Luca walked over, pulled a chair, and sat beside him. “Is she planning to bring Ms. Thomas back with her too?”

“I’m not sure.” Luke suddenly chuckled. His eyes carried a hint of tease as he looked at Luca. “Are you getting jealous?”

“Why would I be jealous?” Luca felt helpless, her face flushing at his playful comment. “Even if Ms. Thomas comes back, it doesn’t matter. You’re not interested in her at all, so what’s there to be jealous of?”

“As long as you trust me,” replied Luke with a smile on his face. “You used to get jealous all the time.”

“I still do, but I’ve learned something.” Luca put on a playful smile. She used to be really jealous, especially when she saw other women fawning over Luke. It would make her uncomfortable.

However, she was different now. She was more confident. As long as Luke did not accept those women’s advances, she would not feel jealous or insecure anymore. Luke was hers, and she was possessive, but she had learned not to let jealousy get the better of her.

“What have you learned?” Luke raised his hand, gently caressing her cheek. The soft, smooth feel of her skin made him reluctant to let go.

“I’ve learned that as long as you only have me in your heart, there’s no need for jealousy,” answered Luca.

Luke smiled and nodded. “Exactly. My heart has always been with you.”

“But there’s still one issue that’s a bit of a problem. Putting Ms. Thomas aside, your mother's return is definitely going to stir up chaos and disrupt the peace. You’re the one who’ll have to deal with it."

Luca and the kids would not be too affected, but it would definitely be a headache for Luke.

Allison had a knack for causing trouble.

“I didn’t tell her not to come back.” Luke felt helpless. Allison was indeed a troublemaker, and her return would certainly disrupt the Crawford family.

In the end, she was still part of the Crawford family, so they could not just refuse to let her come back.

“Did you tell your grandfather?” asked Luca.

“I did.” Luke nodded. As soon as he found out Allison was returning, he informed his grandfather. “Grandpa said it’s fine as long as she doesn’t stay at Crawford Manor.”

“That makes sense. After all, Louis’ mother doesn’t live at Crawford Manor anymore, so your mother can’t either. Otherwise, there would definitely be drama.” Luca held the hand that had been caressing her face. Allison had caused enough harm to people in her earlier years.

Luca was one of them, as well as her biological and adoptive parents.

Now, in Allison's later years, she was still stirring up trouble, and this time, it was for Luke.

Luca could not help but feel uncomfortable.

No matter how capable Luke was, having a mother like that had to be frustrating.

“Are you planning to have her move back into her old villa?” asked Luca.

Luke gave her a bitter smile. If Allison had agreed to that, he would not have been so stressed, and Lanie and Rainie would not have been so upset either. When Luca saw the look on his face, she guessed what was going on and asked, “She doesn’t want to?”

“Yeah, she doesn’t.” Luke was baffled by Allison's sudden change. She used to love living alone in a villa, enjoying a carefree life with no one to bother her.

Now that she was coming back, she had a change of heart.

“She says she'll either move back to Crawford Manor or move in with me.” Luke’s voice was full of helplessness.
