Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3441

“If Abel finds out that Hera's body isn't suitable for organ donation to Kassy, what do you think he'll do?” asked Shanks.

He already knew the answer, but he still wanted to hear Luca’s thoughts.

“He has invested a lot of time and money in Hera. If he gets nothing out of it, he won’t let her off easily,” Luca said bluntly.

Luca and Shanks were on the same page.

They did not have a good relationship with Hera, but they had no intention of ruining her either.

Hera’s personality was unpleasant, but that was not enough for them to hate her so much that they wanted to see her suffer.

“What methods do you think he’ll use?” Shanks asked again.

Luca was silent for a long moment.

Shanks already knew the answer, yet he still wanted her to say it out loud.

After thinking it over, she finally said, “There are plenty of ways he could go about it, but no matter what he chooses, Hera’s fate is sealed. She’s as good as dead…”

She lowered her gaze, her tone firm and certain.

Shanks nodded.

“If her condition had been suitable for the transplant, she might not have died. At worst, she’d be left disabled,” continued Luca.

Shanks nodded again.

“But whether it’s death or disability, Hera won’t accept it. She values her appearance too much. If she ends up disabled or marred, she’d probably rather be dead,” added Luca.

Once again, Shanks nodded.

He agreed with everything she said.

Abel would have no problem turning an innocent person into something unrecognizable for Kassy’s sake.

Then, out of nowhere, Shanks asked, “Is your husband planning something?”

Luca’s heart skipped a beat. She looked up, forcing herself to appear calm as she met his gaze.

Had he figured something out?

However, Shanks’ expression remained unreadable. There was nothing in his eyes that gave him away.

Luca shook her head. “What do you mean by that?”

“Nothing in particular. I just don’t want to see another innocent life destroyed,” Shanks replied calmly. Then, he opened a cabinet filled with medication and began preparing a solution.

"You don’t support it either, do you?" Luca asked in a soft voice.

Shanks responded flatly, “Even if I don’t support it, I can’t always stop Abel’s decisions.”

He pulled out a vial of medicine.

Luca frowned at the sight.

“Unless someone stronger steps in to stop him.” Shanks stared at her thoughtfully.

Luca’s heart pounded with anxiety. Could it be that Shanks really know something? If he did, he would definitely tell Abel.

In that case, their plan…

She clasped her hands behind her back, trying to conceal their slight tremble.

Shanks finished preparing the vial of medicine and added, “For now, don’t tell Abel about that woman’s condition. We’ll take it one step at a time.”

Luca swallowed hard and nodded. “Okay.”

“As for her health, we’ll help her recover first. What happens next will be up to fate,” added Shanks.

“Understood.” Luca followed his lead.

As long as Shanks did not report Hera’s condition to Abel, she would be safe—at least for now.

Abel was a businessman, but he was also a ruthless killer. He would not be able to understand those medical reports on his own.

Of course, if he became suspicious and had another doctor review Hera’s test results, there would not be much they could do.
