Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 399

Chapter 399 Why Did He Bring Bianca Into His Room?

Leia, immaculately dressed, was playing bridge with Allison and two of her other friends.

The caretaker brought Old Master Crawford and the twins to the nearby park, and Susan was back at her parents' house.

That was why Allison could gather her friends for a bridge session at Crawford Manor.

"I win again!' Allison seemed to be lucky that day. She won the last few rounds in a row.

She was the one who was laughing the loudest in the living room.

"You're so lucky, Aunt Allison. You've won several rounds in a row. That's amazing," Leia said.

"I'm done for the day. I haven't won a single round today." Mrs. Willow seemed unhappy.

Allison grinned even wider when she heard Mrs. Willow's complaints. "Leia is my lucky charm. I used to lose more than I win whenever I play, but when Leia is here, I have a winning streak!” "I say, Allison, Leia is always here to keep you company whenever she's free. I think she's as close to you as a birth daughter. When is Luke going to propose to her?" Mrs. King asked as she shuffled the cards.

Everyone in Allison's social circle knew who Leia was.

After all, Allison had boasted to her friends that the daughter of the Provincial Committee Secretary was in love with her son. She was very happy to see Leia becoming her daughter-in-law.

Moreover, Leia was a true socialite. Not only she came from an illustrious family, but her demeanor was also noble and elegant. In the eyes of those noblewomen, she was sure to become Allison's daughter-in-law.

Of course, with the proliferation of information, those noblewomen knew about Luke's scandals from newspapers, magazines, and the Internet.

According to rumors, he had admitted that Bianca Rayne was the birth mother of his twins.

However, those noblewomen did not agree that a peasant woman could marry into a wealthy family.

Women like Bianca were more suited for one-night stands, or they could even be sugar babies. Only a socialite could become Mrs. Crawford.

Leia held her breath when she heard Mrs. King's question.

She had spent a lot of money and time on Luke's mother. She was not going to see it all go to waste.

"It'll be soon. My boy Luke is focusing on his career for now, and he doesn't have the time to worry about relationships. He's not young anymore, and he’ll have to marry soon! I'll talk to him after Thanksgiving, and the latest will probably be the end of next year...’ Allison said without hesitating.

Leia was slightly disappointed she heard that she had to wait until the end of next year, but she soon managed to comfort herself.

She was still young. Waiting for another year was nothing.

The man would not insist on marrying Bianca if the Crawford and Norman families pressured him.

She felt a lot more relieved when she thought of that.

Perking herself up, she continued the next game of bridge with the ladies. She was smiling on the surface, but deep down inside, she was extremely irritated. She would not have played that boring game with those old ladies if not that she had to appease Allison!

Halfway through a game, Luke and Bianca returned home.
