Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 682

Luke had always loved sunsets.

Before he took over T Corporation, he traveled the world in search of the most breathtaking sunsets.

He had been to the summit of Mount Everest, the vast grasslands of Hulun Buir, and on top of the golden dunes of the Taklamakan Desert.

He loved watching the sunset because the dawn that followed signified a new hope.

The sunset on the island was not as beautiful as those other places.

In fact, by viewing it with a despondent mood, the sunset there was suffused with the solemnity of death.

While Luke was lost in thought while viewing the sunset, Kassy appeared behind him.

She looked into Luke's forlorn gray-brown eyes transfixed at the roiling waves and the setting sun.

"You're sitting here again." Kassy walked up to him and draped a jacket over Luke's body.

Luke did not look at her. His gaze was clear and gentle with a hint of anger.

Kassy did not care that he was cold toward her.

In the two years they had interacted, Kassy had a rudimentary understanding of the man's character.

"You've just recovered, and you should rest in your room. When I glanced out, I noticed that you're sitting by the sea again. It's not winter now, but the sea breeze is quite cold. You should go back," Kassy spoke to him patiently while reaching out to hold his arm.

A hint of disgust quickly appeared in Luke's eyes.

He hated women touching him, other than Bianca.

"Let go." Luke waved his arm and shoved Kassy aside.

Kassy was not bothered. She puffed up her chest and leaned against Luke. "Don't be so heartless, Matthew. I've saved your life, and I'm your fiancée. Aren't you the least bit moved in the two years since you met me?"

Luke's handsome face seemed to be shrouded in a layer of frost.

He stood up from the reef and turned away from her. "I'll go back now. I still have some work that Godfather tasked me with."

Kessy felt resentful as she watched Luke leave. He was so unapproachable, but she liked men like that.

So many Russian men tried to court her, but she did not fancy any of them.

Now that she had found a man who won her heart, he avoided her whenever he could, even though she had tried to get close to him with various excuses.

In two years, she never managed to get close to him, whether physically or emotionally.

She had tried to seduce him, even with the use of drugs. The man was never interested in her, and he would rather take cold showers than touch her. That had disappointed Kassy.

His stepfather even scolded her that she was useless.

She did not believe that the man did not have any primal instincts. It was only a matter of time before he fell for her!

…

Late at night, all was quiet.

Luke stepped into his dark and cold room. He was about to remove his clothes to take a shower.

There would be a major operation later in the night, and he was not sure if he would survive it.
