Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3317

Tommy wrapped his arms around Luca’s waist and mumbled, “But we want to live with Dad and Ms. Luca.”

“Be good. After you finish your finals, and after Lanie's grade-skipping evaluation, we'll bring you back,” replied Luca. She did not want to be apart from the kids either, but she did not want the adults' issues to affect their studies.

The three kids were very smart.

Luca did not want them to perform poorly or let the situation with Allison leave a negative impact on them.

When kids experienced trauma, it could be harmful to their development.

Some people thought kids were young and forgot things easily, that if something bad happened, they would move on quickly.

The truth was, kids had excellent memories, especially with negative experiences. That was why Luca did not want them to be affected.

“Tommy, listen to Ms. Luca. This is also what Daddy wants,” Lanie chimed in.

He was not afraid of their grandmother. Even though her face was disfigured, it did not bother him. It did not scare him at all.

If Allison moved in, he figured he would just spend more time in his room and avoid seeing her.

However, Rainie and Tommy were timid. If they had to move back to Crawford Manor, he would definitely stay with them.

“Okay.” Tommy nodded. As he thought of Allison’s face, he shivered and looked at Rainie. “Rainie, is Grandma’s face scarier now?”

“It’s a little better than it was on New Year’s.” Rainie pondered for a moment and added, “But just a little better. It's still not fully healed. There are still a lot of wrinkles, and it’s pretty scary.”

Tommy shrank back. Boys were supposed to be brave and not get scared by little things like this. Still, just thinking about Allison’s face made him lose his courage.

“Rainie, let’s go live at Crawford Manor,” suggested Tommy.

“Okay. I’ll take you all there the day before your grandma comes back.” Luca patted his head. After he let go of her, she stood up carrying the fruits and said, “I’m going to make some ice cream.”

Vivian immediately stood up as well. “Luca, I’d love to learn how to make ice cream.”

“Come to the kitchen.” Luca smiled and walked with her into the kitchen.

Aunt Neile was busy cleaning up, so she was not in the kitchen.

Vivian could not help but ask with curiosity, “Luca, I didn’t realize Mr. Crawford was talking with his mother just now, so when I passed by, I accidentally gasped and let out a scream. Was that rude of me?”

“Don’t worry about it. Luke won’t mind,” replied Luca with a smile.

“But his mother seemed very upset. I’m worried I was impolite.” It was her first time seeing someone like that. She looked like something out of a fairy tale, like a wicked witch...

Vivian had never seen anything so terrifying, and she could not help but gasp when she saw Allison.

As Luca washed the fruits, she replied, “Really, it’s fine. It’s understandable. The way she looks now is because of some questionable beauty products.”

“What kind of products? That sounds scary!” Vivian’s curiosity was piqued.

“It’s a type of brightening serum. It works well at first, but it's full of hormones and heavy metals. Using it for a long time leads to heavy metal poisoning and hormonal imbalances, causing all sorts of problems. If you stop using it, your skin ages rapidly, and new, healthy cells won’t grow anymore,” explained Luca.

She had already analyzed the brightening serum Allison had used.

It worked, but the ingredients in it were dangerous.
