Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 961

Half an hour later, Luke presumed Bianca was asleep when he heard her breathing slow down. He picked up the phone on the bedside table and sent a message to Jason. [I want everything you can find on the CEO of the developer for St. Heckler on my table tomorrow morning.]

Jason was coaxing the twins to sleep. After he received Luke's text, he immediately replied: [Okay, Mr. Crawford.]

Kari was awakened by the notification. She opened her eyes in a daze and muttered, "Dad."

Jason put his phone away. He was a workaholic. Even if he was asleep, his phone would never be on silent mode. That was so that he could attend to Luke’s requests at the first instant.

He apologized. "I'm sorry, baby. Did it wake you up?"

Kari glanced at her sister who was sleeping next to her and found that Teri was still asleep. She shook her head and said, "No, Dad."

"Baby, go back to sleep." Jason tucked her in, then gently rubbed her belly and soothed her.

Kari smiled sweetly and closed her eyes. "Okay, good night, Dad."

"Good night." For the past few weeks, Jason would visit the twins every night. His relationship with Sue had eased a lot.

When Kari fell asleep, Jason tiptoed out of the bedroom and gently closed the door.

Sue was sitting in the living room applying a face mask. Her expression turned slightly cold when she saw him.

She asked, "Kari and Teri are asleep?"

"Yeah." Jason walked over and intended to sit next to her, but he was afraid that she would be offended, so he sat on another single sofa.

Sue lifted the mask, threw it into the trash can, and patted her face again to promote the absorption of the essence.

Jason sighed in his heart and thought that Sue was cruel to him.

He asked, "Have you been in contact with the CEO of the developer for St. Heckler?"

"I’ve talked to his subordinates before but I don’t have much contact with him. All I know is that his name is Steven and he's not from around here." Sue had been caught up with work when Bianca was out of the office. She was not able to give the twins her full attention because of that.

That was when Jason appeared and took the initiative to take care of the twins.

No matter how she scolded him and how cold her glares were, he still silently cared for their children.

The nanny empathized with Jason and had talked to Sue privately. “The twins need their father’s love, you shouldn’t separate them.”

Sue reflected on whether she had been too harsh on Jason. Her attitude gradually improved, and they were able to exchange a few words.

Sue asked, "What's wrong?"

"Mr. Crawford asked me to find out everything I can about him." Jason had started investigating.

Sue stopped patting her face and replied, "Why are you involved? Is it because of something that happened tonight?"

Jason shook his head. He only did what he was told and never asked Luke questions.

Sue was puzzled and wanted to reach out to Bianca. She paused when she realized that Bianca was likely asleep.

She was going to get ready for bed too.

Sue took a look at the time, cleared her throat, and said coldly, "It's late, it’s time for you to head back."

Jason was taken back. He sighed and said, "Sue..."

The tension with Sue had eased, but their relationship was merely like ordinary friends.

Her face was radiant after putting on the mask. She was more charming than she already was. Jason did not want to be her friend; he wanted to be her husband, stay by her side, and watch Kari and Teri grow up as one family.

Before he finished speaking, Sue knew what he was thinking about and said sternly, "If you leave any later, there might be a misunderstanding. My life is very peaceful now. I don't want to be disturbed, especially by your ex-wife."

When she mentioned Bailey Quarrington, Jason frowned.
