Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3347

“You don’t like eating outside food, do you?” Luca thought that preparing breakfast and dinner for him was not a big deal.

Besides, the main point was that Luke did not like eating out. He always felt the taste was off and lacked nutrition.

“Actually, it’s not that I don’t like eating out. It's just that all the food outside tastes the same to me.” Luke gently squeezed her hand.

“Hey, focus on driving.” Luca chuckled.

Luke withdrew his hand and returned it to the steering wheel. “With that woman around, it wouldn’t be convenient for you to cook. Are you really going to make breakfast for them too?”

If that happened, it would defeat the purpose of his plan.

Luca thought for a moment. She did not mind ignoring Sophian, but if she cooked for Luke and not for Allison, that might not sit well with her. Allison could easily make a fuss over even the smallest details. “So, should we just eat out for breakfast and dinner from now on?”

“Yes.” Luke did not mind.

It did not matter where they ate, really. As long as he was with Luca, he was fine with anything.

“Well, in that case, I should look for some good breakfast spots and restaurants nearby. You're picky, after all,” replied Luca as she picked up her phone to search for local dining options.

Luke smiled as he drove into a neighborhood.

Luca saw the sign at the entrance and knew immediately where they were headed.

“Are we going to eat in that private kitchen?” asked Luca. After her memory training at the Island of Despair, she could remember most places she had been.

“Yes, I noticed you liked their food last time, so I made a reservation,” replied Luke. He parked the car, got out, and opened the door for her.

Luca followed him.

They went upstairs together to the private kitchen.

The owner and his wife greeted them warmly, just like last time.

Once the dishes were served, Luke’s phone rang.

“Let me take this call.” Luke glanced at the caller ID before answering. “Yes?”

Allison's voice came from the other end of the line. “Luke, when are you coming home?”

“I’m eating out,” answered Luke.

“What?” Allison sounded surprised. “You’re out for business and didn’t even tell me?”

“I’m not at a business dinner. I’m with Luca, and we’re eating out. You don’t have to wait for me.” Luke picked up his fork and served Luca some of the dishes she liked.

“Thank you.” Luca mouthed with a smile.

On the other end of the phone, Allison was furious. “What’s going on between you two? Why are you always out? Isn’t there any food at home?”

“You kicked Aunt Neile out. Who's going to cook?” asked Luke.

Allison immediately replied, "Sophian cooks really well.”

Luke responded coldly, “Well, enjoy your meal, then.”

“You!” Allison was about to scold him further when the call abruptly ended. Luke had hung up the phone.

“This is driving me crazy!” Allison wished she could smash her phone.

However, she eventually stopped herself. The phone cost her several thousand dollars, and if she broke it, she would have to buy a new one. Where would she find the money for that?

Sophian, who stood nearby, cautiously asked, “Madam Allison, is your son not coming home for dinner?”

“Don’t call him my son. You're a maid of the Crawford family now, so you should call him Mr. Crawford or Sir.” Allison shot her a glare, venting all her frustration.

“Yes, Madam Allison.” Sophian, intimidated by her anger, quickly corrected herself. “Madam, will Mr. Crawford be home for dinner today?”

“He’s not coming home… for dinner.” Allison rose to her feet. Her hunger from not eating lunch was hitting her now.

“Madam Allison, I do know how to cook!” Sophian firmly reiterated it. “It’s just that I lived in Seoul for a long time, so I’m not very familiar with the cuisine here. But as long as I follow a recipe, I’ll be able to make a great meal. Please trust me.”

“Really?” Allison looked at her suspiciously.

Sophian nodded eagerly. “Yes, really! Just give me a little time, and I’m sure I can make a feast for dinner.”

“Fine. I’ll give you one more chance,” replied Allison. “But I’m not eating this. It’s so unappetizing that I've lost my appetite. Is this what someone of my status should eat?”

Sophian felt humiliated.

What status?

Were they not all just humans?

Besides, this was the kind of food she ate every day in Seoul. Did she not turn out fine?

Still, Sophian dared not to argue. She meekly asked, “Madam Allison, if you’re not eating this, what would you like to have?”

“Order me some takeout from the Peninsula Hotel,” instructed Allison. She felt frustrated as she thought about Luke eating and drinking extravagantly with Luca.

Why should her son get to enjoy good food out there, while she, as his mother, was stuck eating this low-end stuff?

She decided it was time to treat herself.

“Okay.” Sophian nodded. She pulled her phone out of her pocket and asked, “Madam, do they offer delivery?”

“Yes, just search for it on the delivery platform,” replied Allison as she walked out of the dining room.

Sophian followed behind her and was shocked when she saw that the cheapest set meal was over a thousand dollars. Her mouth dropped open in surprise.

“Madam Allison, this is too expensive!” Sophian blurted out without thinking.

“It's fine, I'm the madam of the Crawford family. Can’t I afford it?” Allison sat on the couch, pretending to be all elegant. “Just get the most expensive one.”
