Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3467

“As long as he stays out of your sight, I won’t make a move,” said Ray.

If Gordan were not one of Luke’s pals, he would have been long gone.

Anyone who dared to mess with someone Ray cherished would not be let off easily. The only reason Gordan was still breathing was thanks to Luke.

“Alright, Ray. Just let it go. I’ve moved on and started a new life. Plus, I’m studying at Capital University. We have mutual friends, so running into him is inevitable. If that happens, we’ll just be strangers. There’s no need to step in for me or act impulsively.” Just as Vivian finished speaking, the doorbell rang.

“Is it the clothes delivery?” asked Ray.

“No, while you were talking with Mr. Crawford, I asked someone to buy some medicinal cream. The ones here work better than the ones in Russia. A little massage with it should help you heal faster,” Vivian said, grabbing a mask and hat before heading to the door.

“Miss, is the boss alright?” asked one of Ray’s subordinates.

“He’s fine. Did you get the medicine?” asked Vivian.

“Yes, here it is.” The subordinate handed her a pharmacy bag.

Vivian took it, closed the door, and began applying the medicine to Ray’s injuries.

…

Luke sat on a single-seater couch, watching Gordan lying motionless on the couch. He felt helpless. “If you’re really feeling that bad, just go to the hospital.”

“No way. Getting beat up and then going to the hospital? That’s embarrassing." Gordan scoffed. “I already ordered medicine through a delivery app. Once I apply it, I’ll be fine.”

Seeing that he had things handled, Luke did not press further.

After a moment of silence, Gordan suddenly asked, “Uh… Luke, how’s Vivian doing?”

“You’re worried about her?” Luke turned to look at him.

Gordan rolled his eyes. “Worried? No way. I just accidentally made her cry last time, and I don’t want any revenge coming my way. So, if she’s really upset, I’ll just avoid her from now on.”

“Luca said Vivian’s not doing well. She’s stuck in a serious slump, probably the worst she’s ever been. Wouldn’t be surprised if she started having some really dark thoughts,” Luke suddenly said.

“That shameless woman? No way she’d let it get to her,” Gordon scoffed dismissively. “Out of everyone, she’s the last I’d ever believe would lose herself over this.”

Luke looked at him with a half-smile, half-smirk. “See? I knew you wouldn’t believe me.”

“It’s because it’s not true,” Gordan replied stubbornly as a hint of unease crept into his chest.

“Come on, let’s go over this route. If everything looks good, I’ll need you and Rain to make the trip.” Luke did not push further. Instead, he tapped his phone, casting the screen onto the computer monitor.

“Why me? If Rain’s going, just send Gale with her. I’m injured. I can’t do anything now,” Gordan argued. “Besides, those two haven’t seen each other in a while. Wouldn’t it be a great chance for them to spend some quality time together?”

“Gale has to stay here. He can’t return to A City now.” Luke paused for a moment and asked, “You’re not avoiding going back just because Vivian is here, are you?”

“What? What does she have to do with me?” Gordan frowned. Him staying here because Vivian was here?

What a joke.

For some reason, just thinking about Vivian made him even more restless.

Gordan could not help but wonder who poisoned Vivian, and what kind of toxin had left her body in such a terrible state?

As he lay sprawled on the couch, still lost in thought, the doorbell rang.

Luke kicked the couch lightly. “What are you spacing out for? Your medicine’s here. Go open the door.”

Gordan rolled over. “Luke, I’m injured. Why don’t you get it for me?”

“I’m overseas. I can’t show my face,” Luke replied mercilessly.
