Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 700

When Bianca heard that voice, she felt an invisible hand grip her heart, and the pain caused her to tremble uncontrollably.

Tears started to fall. "Luke… is that you? Is that really you, Luke?"

The woman's stifled sobs were very soft. Like a wisp of smoke, it traveled through the phone and entered Luke's ear.

It was as though he could see Bianca's crying face in front of him.

Luke's heart wrenched, but he forced himself to stay calm. "Don't cry… It's me. I'm still alive. Listen to me. I'm in a risky situation now, and I can't contact you too often. Otherwise, you and the children will be in danger. I can't tell you too much now, but when I get home, I'll tell you what happened to me over the past two years…"

Now, she was like a flower blooming under the sun, but he could only look at her from the shadows. He wanted to pluck that flower, but he could not risk exposing himself.

Bianca wanted to stop crying, but she could not stop her tears. "Alright, we'll wait for your return… Luke, do you know that our third child is born? He's a boy, and he looks exactly like you. His nickname is Tommy. Lanie and Rainie have been very good too. They never let me worry. Grandpa fell sick after he knew that you went missing, but he's still healthy. T Corporation is operating normally. I've managed to protect your legacy…"

They were husband and wife, and Bianca knew the things that concerned Luke the most.

Before he could ask, Bianca told him everything that he wanted to know.

"Thank you, my wife." Luke's resonant voice entered Bianca's ear. "Trust me. I will come back to you soon."

Bianca tried to keep her voice low and steady, but her trembling lips betrayed her emotions. "Where are you now, Luke? I brought Tommy to Moscow to look for you, and we're staying in Ray's house now. Are you still in Moscow?"

Luke's expression changed drastically. "You brought Tommy to Moscow? That's ridiculous!"

"Why shouldn't I? You went missing in Moscow, so I thought I could find some leads here…" Bianca was puzzled.

She felt aggrieved when Luke had responded so violently.

Luke began to speak hastily. "Listen to me, Bianca. My disappearance two years ago is related to a secret organization of assassins named the League of Shadows. They are cruel and merciless, and they have taken me captive for the past two years. I only managed to escape from their clutches a few days ago, and they've been trying to hunt me down. If they find out that you and Tommy are in their territory, you'll be in danger…"

Bianca shook her head in disbelief.

Now that Luke had told her about his perilous situation, her tears started flowing again. "What's going on? If what you said is true, does that mean you're in bigger danger? How can I save you?"

Luke could imagine how weak and helpless Bianca was right now.

He tried to calm himself down and spoke to her, "You don't have to worry about me, silly girl. I'll be fine. You'll have to take care of yourself and Tommy. Now that you're in Russia, the people from the League of Shadows might already have set their eyes on you. Remember what I'm about to tell you: Ray is a powerful figure in Russia. Even though I've only met him once, I can say that you can count on him. We're considered friends, and you can seek him for help.
