Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 824

Bianca felt a little guilty when she saw a faint handprint on Luke's face.

She remembered that she had landed a vicious slap on his cheek when she could not control her emotions. She could feel that her palm was still stinging.

Bianca tenderly caressed his face and said hoarsely, "Does your face still hurt, Luke?"

She regretted slapping him.

However, she could not help but feel aggrieved that he had come so late.

She could not imagine what would happen to her and the children if Luke had arrived another second later.

The man's gaze wavered slightly. He placed his hands on her tender cheeks and stared straight into her eyes. "It doesn't hurt at all. Not a bit."

"You're lying!"

Bianca laughed with tears in her eyes, playfully tugged at his short hair, and pouted. "Don't you know how afraid I was back then? I was afraid that I might not see you again, but I was even more afraid that something might happen to our children. Don't you know, Luke, I'd rather die than see any harm come to our children…"

Luke lay down next to her and hugged her intimately. "I started searching for you the moment I knew that you were in danger, but Kassy is a cunning woman. She's a trained assassin from the Island of Despair, and she barely leaves any traces of her crimes. That was why it took so long to track you down. Fortunately, I arrived just in time. I might not be able to forgive myself if I were too late."

The man's body was warm, while the woman was slightly cool.

His nose was pressed against her, leaving no gap in between their bodies.

Bianca lay on his chest with a vacant expression. "No matter what you think of her, Kassy once saved your life after all. She'll hate you for blinding and crippling her. It's all because of me, Luke. Sorry…"

"That has nothing to do with you, silly girl. The woman isn't as kind-hearted as you might think. She only saved me because she thought that I could be useful to her. Moreover, many lives have been lost in her hands…"

Luke took her hand and gently massaged it, and his eyes flashed with some hostility. "She's unforgivable for attempting to harm you. She should be punished for what she did, and she should be grateful that she is still alive."

Kassy must have plotted for a long time before she infiltrated into A City without a trace. The tragedy of The Galleria had distracted him, which allowed Kassy to take the opportunity to carry out her almost-flawless plan.

Regarding the collapse of The Galleria, Luke guessed that Kassy must have had an accomplice, even though all the evidence found at the ruins pointed to Kassy.

Why would she do so? Was she taking revenge on him?

If the woman had blown up a shopping mall just so that she could abduct his wife and children, it meant that she was much crueler than he had imagined!

Luke knew that Kassy had always been obsessed with him, but he could not accept how fanatical and outrageous her love was.

He did not expect that the woman would go to such extreme means!

Luke thought for a while before deciding to tell Bianca the truth. He realized that he needed to be honest with his wife.

Bianca was stunned for a long time.

She did not expect that Kassy could be so depraved to kill hundreds of innocent lives just to win a man's heart. For a while, she considered herself lucky to be able to come out of the ordeal alive.
