Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3319

Luke knew he had a lot of responsibilities weighing on his shoulders. The most important one was that the matter with Luca still had not been resolved. He could not afford to rest just yet.

Only when he was certain that his wife and kids were safe could he take a breather.

Luca looked at him tenderly, her eyes filled with affection. “For me, no one is as special as you.”

Luke smiled and gently ruffled her hair.

Luca sat up and gave him a light kiss on the forehead. “Luke, I love you. It’s been amazing meeting you, knowing you, and loving you in this life. We’re a team, partners for life. So whatever comes our way, don’t try to carry the weight by yourself, okay? You’ve got me and the kids. We’ll always be here for you.”

She knew how exhausted Luke was from dealing with both work and her situation.

Luca only wanted to help him, to lighten his load.

“Alright, I promise.” Luke's voice was hoarse, and a deep desire for her flickered in his eyes.

The room grew warmer as their lips were about to meet when a knock interrupted them.

Luca quickly pulled back as though she was startled.

Luke’s face flashed with frustration. “Who is it?”

“Daddy, is Ms. Luca awake yet?” Tommy’s voice called from outside the door.

Luke was rendered speechless. His son really had a knack for ruining his moments.

He got out of bed and opened the door, looking down at his youngest son. “With how loudly you knocked, she’d be awake even if she wasn’t before.”

Tommy happily squeezed through the gap and ran to the bedside. “Ms. Luca, you’re awake!”

“Yes, I’m up,” replied Luca, looking at her youngest son before glancing over at Luke.

He had a look of frustration and desire written all over his face. The way he looked at his son was filled with helplessness and disappointment.

Luca could not help but laugh. Even so, Luke could not really do anything to his son.

“Come play with us since you’re awake! We haven’t played games together in so long,” suggested Tommy as he tugged Luca out of bed.

Luca had no choice but to get up and follow him.

Luke watched as his wife, whom he had finally managed to claim for himself, was now being dragged away by their child. He let out a sigh of defeat.

“Daddy, get back to work.” Tommy suddenly turned around, giving Luke a thumbs-up as though to cheer him on.

Luke was even more speechless.

He had to keep reminding himself that this was his own child. He had to endure it.

He had to endure it!

As Luca left the room with Tommy, she heard Luke’s quiet groan and could not help but smile. She swore she had not done it on purpose. She did not expect the kids to seek her out at a time like this.

She thought to herself that she would just make it up to him tonight after the kids fell asleep.

Downstairs, Lanie and Rainie were setting up a board game. When they saw her and Tommy come down, they called out together, “Ms. Luca!”

“When did you two wake up?” asked Luca, sitting down next to them with Tommy.

“We’ve been up for a while,” answered Rainie. She gave Luca a hug before adding, “But we didn’t tell Tommy to wake you up. He did that all by himself.”

Tommy called out, “How could you do this? We agreed to share the good times and tough it out together!”

“He just wanted ice cream. That's why he came upstairs to wake you up," Lanie said.

Luca looked at Tommy with a smile on his face. “Is that true?”

“Hey…” Tommy felt helpless. His siblings always sold him out, and now, his image as a good kid was about to crumble.
