Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3440

Hera heard that Luca had returned and immediately went to find Shanks. She narrowed her eyes.

That woman went to see Shanks. Could she be talking about her?

The thought made Hera uneasy. She had a nagging feeling that something was wrong with her medical report.

However, when they left the medical center earlier, Abel asked Luca when the report would be ready, and she said it would be available tomorrow.

Hera turned to Gerald and said, “Take these back for me first.”

“Alright.” Gerald carried the bags as he walked away. He could not help but wonder what exactly Hera bought. These bags were really heavy!

Only after Gerald went upstairs did Hera slowly make her way up as well.

Her room was on the third floor, but she stopped when she reached the second floor. She glanced around to make sure no one was watching before heading toward the laboratory.

The door was closed.

Instead of knocking, Hera pressed her ear against it, trying to eavesdrop.

However, the laboratory was specially built by people hired by Shanks. It was not only soundproof but also fireproof and waterproof, ensuring that his experiments would not be easily destroyed.

Luca stood nearby after handing her phone to Shanks.

Shanks looked at the screen, his brows furrowing together.

“Have the other reports come in?” asked Shanks.

“Not yet. Some will probably take until tomorrow. But from the results we have so far, it’s clear that Hera isn’t a suitable organ donor. Mr. Shanks, what should we do now?” asked Luca.

She was asking whether they should inform Abel.

Shanks handed the phone back to her and then stared at the microscope beside him. He was deep in thought.

He was not Abel, and he had no emotional attachment to Kassy.

To him, there was never a need to take organs from a living person for the transplant. If it were not for Abel’s stubbornness, he would not have agreed to it in the first place.

Hera's body was indeed unsuitable for donating organs to Kassy at the moment.

“Let me think about it,” replied Shanks.

Luca nodded and was about to leave when she heard him give another instruction. “There’s prepared IV fluid over there. Go hang it up for the patient.”

“Okay,” replied Luca.

She picked up the bag of IV fluid and opened the door, only to find Hera standing right outside.

Luca looked at her in surprise.

Hera did not expect the door to suddenly open either. She had been leaning against it, relying on it for support. She nearly lost her balance when the door opened.

She grabbed the doorframe just in time to stop herself from falling.

The IV fluid in Luca’s hands nearly dropped due to Hera’s sudden movement. Luca quickly took a step back, securing the fluid to prevent any mishap.

If Hera had knocked it over, Shanks would definitely be furious.

When Shanks was angry, Hera’s future would be nothing but darkness.

And if she could not be a donor for Kassy, Abel would make her life a living hell.

“Ms. Sanchez, what are you doing here?” Luca frowned, feeling helpless. Hera's situation was already dangerous. Could she stop making things worse?

It was one thing for Hera to ignore warnings before, but now, she was even eavesdropping and had nearly ruined the medication.

“I-I came to find you,” Hera stammered.

Luca’s lips curved into a half-smile. She came to find her?

“Then why didn’t you knock?” asked Luca.

“I just got here and was about to knock, but you suddenly opened the door without any warning! Do you know how easily that could have hurt someone?” Hera shifted all the blame onto Luca.

“Oh? It's the first time I've seen someone knock with their ear pressed against the door.” Luca exposed her without hesitation and did not bother arguing further. “What do you want?”
