Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3376

“I know you’re not interested in her, but still, we should be cautious,” Luca joked, trying to lighten the mood.

She was actually worried that Hera’s feelings for Luke might interfere with their plans.

Luca looked at him with concern. “You weren’t in your room last night. If she really went to your room, she must've noticed your absence. How will you explain that?”

“There are plenty of reasons I could give.” Luke already had an explanation in mind.

However, if Hera really had feelings for him and stayed here, it would definitely cause him some trouble.

“Just be careful.” Luca felt helpless. Abel’s sudden appearance had already messed up a lot of their plans.

There was no way for her to leave this little villa now.

With Abel bringing Hera here and her developing feelings for Luke, it was bound to cause more trouble for him later.

Luca felt frustrated.

She had enough trouble on her own. She did not want Luke to get caught up in trouble too. She had never intended for him to be involved in the first place.

“Don’t worry. I told you I'd protect you, and I will,” replied Luke.

Luca felt a mix of gratitude and concern inside her. It was a complicated feeling. She glanced at the time and said, “I need to go give the volunteer the injection now. Hera might cause trouble for you later, so be careful.”

She turned around and went upstairs after saying that.

…

When Hera woke up, it was already past 10:00 pm.

Abel had already gotten up, and when she sat up, she saw that he was not in the room. She let out a sigh of relief. Abel’s violent treatment of her was terrifying.

She glanced at the marks on her body. There were purple and blue bruises, which did not look good at all. Thinking about how he had treated her the night before, she could not help but shiver.

It was terrifying.

It nearly took her life.

Hera changed her clothes and covered up the marks on her body before heading downstairs. When she reached the bottom of the stairs, Gerald approached her. “Good morning, Ms. Sanchez.”

A hint of disgust flashed across Hera’s eyes when she saw Gerald. She lazily said, “Morning. Where’s your boss?”

“Boss had breakfast and left this morning. He must have some matters to attend to. Ms. Sanchez, would you like some breakfast?” asked Gerald.

“Yes, I’m starving,” replied Hera. Her hunger yesterday had been fake, but after the exhaustion she went through, she was now genuinely famished.

Gerald led her to the dining area and brought her breakfast.

Hera looked at the meal and frowned. “What kind of breakfast is this? Can I even eat it?”

“It’s edible, and it actually tastes pretty good,” replied Gerald. Luca was the one who prepared breakfast and the taste was excellent. “Don’t worry. I knew you'd wake up a bit late, so I kept the pasta and sauce separately so that the pasta wouldn't get soggy."

Luca had started making breakfast for everyone, and the quality of their meals had improved dramatically.

They all loved Luca’s cooking.

They did not have any particular preferences when it came to food. Whatever Luca made, they ate. Everything tasted great to them.

Hera was suspicious, but she picked up her cutlery and tried a bite of the pasta.

The taste was indeed good. She huffed in a slightly arrogant manner. “Not bad. Where did you buy this?”

“It’s made by Ms. Craw,” Gerald replied with a smile.

Hera froze for a moment. It was made by that woman, Luca?

She almost put her cutlery down, not wanting to eat. However, her taste buds had already been awakened, and her body was protesting, crying out for food.
