Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3395

Lucius was different.

He did not care about getting close to anyone, whether man or woman. Even when Hera’s attempts to seduce him were blatantly obvious, he still remained unmoved and even showed signs of rejection.

Gerald could not help but marvel at Luca’s sharp observations and incisive remarks.

He could not help but clap his hands lightly, genuinely impressed.

“Lucius truly is exceptional,” said Gerald.

Luca came downstairs.

When she took the last step off the stairs, the men in the living room immediately fell silent.

They held their breath as they watched the woman in front of them. Her hair was straight, not like their boss' companion.

The men's gazes grew intense.

Luca’s expression darkened.

Gerald stood beside her and said, “See, I told you—you’re like a piece of meat dropped into a pack of wolves. Be careful.”

One of the men heard Gerald and asked unhappily, “Hey, kid, what are you saying? What wolves? We’re gentlemen. We’d never dream of doing anything inappropriate.”

“Exactly! Lady, why don’t you come and have a drink with us?” asked another man.

Luca’s expression grew even colder.

Their intentions were written all over their faces.

Gerald noticed the storm brewing in Luca’s expression and hastily gestured at the men to stop. He made a 'shut up' gesture.

Instead of taking the hint, the men burst into laughter.

“Man, we’ve seen cowards, but this one takes the cake!”

“Right? Lady, come on. Just one drink…” Before the words finished leaving his mouth, the guy reached out, trying to grab Luca’s hand.

Luca avoided his touch, but she immediately grabbed his hand and effortlessly slapped him across the face.

The sound echoed crisply in the living room.

Everyone froze with wide eyes.

What was going on? Did one of them get slapped across the face?

“Y-Y-You!” The man who had been slapped stammered, struggling to find his words.

“Who else wants to invite me for a drink?” Luca hated trouble, but when she sensed it brewing, she preferred to nip it in the bud.

A tense silence blanketed the room.

None of the men had expected her to lash out, let alone strike one of their own so decisively. They all came from the same base and had been together for a while, so naturally, they were more united.

“Fuck you, you filthy bitch!” One of the men came back to his senses, grabbing a bottle of beer and standing up aggressively.

Luca noticed that they had already drunk several bottles of alcohol.

When these guys had nothing else to do, they either worked out or drank, which she could understand.

However, after just a few drinks, they acted like they were the world's greatest, expecting every woman to submit to them. This was something Luca could not stand. She stared coldly at the man in front of her.

Her gaze remained steady as she watched the man step toward her. His eyes were filled with rage, as though he were about to rip her apart.

Gerald took a step back.

He was not worried about Luca losing. He knew she could handle herself, but he was concerned that if a fight broke out, he might get dragged into it, so he kept his distance to ensure his own safety.

Luca’s expression was cold as she watched the man approach. When he came within range, she acted quickly, delivering a flawless shoulder throw.

The man groaned as he hit the ground.

Luca stepped onto his chest. “How about this? You like it?”

The man groaned in pain. “Let... Let go…”

Luca twisted her foot, pressing against a weak point. “How does that feel?”
