Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 491

Chapter 491 She's Already Mrs. Crawford Except By Name

Mavis stayed in the hospital ward for some time.

The indulgent way Luke treated Bianca suffocated Mavis!

Eventually, she left the hospital ward, carrying her jealousy and hatred with her.

After Mavis left, Sue, Tom, and Nina arrived one after another bearing presents.

They greeted Luke, then asked Bianca how she felt.

They felt somewhat awkward with their boss's overbearing demeanor present.

Seeing that his presence caused unease in his employees, Luke excused himself, saying that he had to smoke. He would give some space for Bianca's colleagues.

"How did you suddenly end up in a car crash? It's so serious, too." Nina asked while holding Bianca's hand. She was unhappy as she looked at Bianca's leg in a bulky cast.

"It was an accident. I got hit when I was crossing a road. I'm fine now, don't worry." Bianca had trivialized the car crash that had almost claimed her life, so that her colleagues would not have to worry about her.

Sue was pregnant with twins for six months. Her stomach was abnormally big, and she looked like she could not maintain her balance as she walked.

Supporting her waist, she advised Bianca, "You should be more careful when you cross the road. There are so many more cars on the road now, and you'd accidentally run into one if you're not careful. I'll be delivering the babies in three months, but I didn't expect that you'll be hospitalized before me. I wonder which wretch didn't pay attention when he's driving?" "Please sit down and have a rest, Sue. You shouldn't tire the babies." Bianca was worried that Sue might be exhausted carrying the two babies. She gestured to the chair next to her.

Sue’s bulging stomach was indeed making her tired. She sat down on the chair.

Even so, her hands did not stay idle. She started to peel an apple for Bianca while speaking, 'With an injury like that, it'll be at least another three months before you can walk again. Just focus on resting and hand your unfinished work to me."

Tom smiled. "You're such a workaholic, Sue. You work so hard even though you're pregnant. You should start looking for a good husband; you wouldn't have to work so hard that way."

Sue glared at Tom. "I have perfectly healthy arms and legs, and I can make money on my own. Why do I need a man? Most men are unreliable. They can promise you the world at first, but when they find a better woman, they'd ditch you without hesitation and repeat the same thing to her. Tch, I'd rather improve myself than gamble my future on a man."

Bianca agreed with Sue's sentiment. "Sue's right, Tom. Reality won't go easy on us just because we're women. It's up to us to be self-reliant. We work so hard not because we want to be rich, but because we want to be recognized for what we can do."

Tom jokingly applauded her speech. "Alright, alright, my ladies. Looking at how determined you are, I'm ashamed to be a man. It looks like I'll have to work harder too. Otherwise, you intelligent and beautiful ladies will leave me behind. I'd love to work with you on the urban reconstruction project, Bianca, but it seems like you'll have to rest for a long time."

Bianca helplessly touched her right leg in a cast. "No one could've predicted the accident. Never mind, I can work from home even when I’m recuperating. I'll always be available if there's anything to discuss."
