Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3459

“I once treated someone who had been slowly poisoned over a long period of time. Their pulse was similar to Vivian’s. Given that your family has good genetics, yet Vivian is different from the rest of you, and her skin improved after leaving her original environment, all of this confirms my suspicion.

“Could it be that someone in your family has been poisoning Vivian? That would explain why her skin ended up like this.”

“If she really has been poisoned, then would staying away from that environment or identifying the person responsible help her get better?” asked Ray.

Luca shook her head.

“The poison I’ve encountered before was a slow-acting toxin that kept the victim’s skin dark. I don’t know exactly what it was, but long-term exposure to any poison has an effect on the body. It's just a suspicion now. I need to consult someone I know. And honestly, I can’t be sure what’s really causing Vivian’s condition.

“Is her skin deteriorating so quickly because she was poisoned once more after returning to Russia? Or did the person who poisoned her realize that her skin was improving outside that environment and decide to increase the dosage? If she really has been poisoned, the toxin might have already caused irreversible damage to her body. We need to act fast.”

Luca furrowed her brows. The thought of someone deliberately poisoning Vivian for over 20 years just to make her look worse was horrifying.

Was it the work of an enemy of their family? Or was there another reason?

Either way, that was not what she needed to focus on right now.

The most important thing was figuring out what was wrong with Vivian.

“Mr. Ray, do you have an electronic copy of her medical report?” asked Luca.

“Yes.” Ray nodded. “Do you need it?”

“Yes, digital reports are more convenient. Could you send it to my email?" Luca then told him her email.

Ray took note of her email and nodded. “I need to organize the files first. Once I’m done, I’ll send them over.”

“Alright, thanks.” Luca nodded. She glanced back toward Vivian’s bedroom, wondering if she had overheard their conversation.

“Mr. Ray, since we're suspecting this, you should be extra careful. If you've brought any food or personal items from Russia, don’t let her have them for now. I don’t know if her condition will improve after leaving that environment, but one thing’s certain—it can’t be allowed to get any worse.”

“Got it. I’ll have someone go through everything right away.” Ray agreed, seeing the logic in her suggestion.

Luca stood up. “I’ll head back now. Please send me the reports as soon as possible.”

“Wait a moment,” replied Ray.

“What is it?” Luca looked at him, puzzled. “Is there something else?”

“There’s someone who wants to see you.” As Ray said that, a faint smile appeared on his lips.

Luca’s heart suddenly started pounding.

“Is it Luke?” Luca asked, but her instincts told her it could only be Luke.

“Yes, he’s in that room. He knew you’d be coming today, so he arrived early this morning and has been waiting for you ever since. To make sure you could focus on treating Vivian, he stayed in another room the whole time without coming out,” replied Ray.

A smile appeared on Luca’s face. She thought she would not get to see him this time.

“Can I go see him now?” asked Luca.

“Of course. That’s up to you two.” Ray sat down on the couch, picked up his laptop, and started organizing Vivian's medical reports to send to Luca as soon as possible.

Vivian peeked her head out and walked over. She knew Luke had arrived and was waiting in the next room. Now that Luca had stepped away, she figured they had gone to see each other.

She secretly let out a deep sigh and thought to herself that those two really had it rough.

She walked over and sat beside Ray. “What are you doing?”

“Luca needs your medical reports. I’m organizing them to send to her,” answered Ray.
