Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 1370

Chapter 1370 She Had No Relation to the Family

Two hours later, Tommy's full test report was ready.

Johann cinto the room with a stack of paper. Luca asked, "Is that the test report?"

"Yes, Dr. Craw. Indeed, there are abnormalities in sof the tests. Take a look," Johann said while handing the stack of paper to Luca.

It was only then that Luca let go of Tommy.

Tommy had already fallen asleep in her arms. She gently placed the little boy on the bed without waking him up.

Old Master Crawford observed her careful actions.

Compared to Bianca, Luca looked more like the child's mother.

The child was willing to get close to her, and she was willing to take care of the child.

However, no one could deny the truth. Bianca was the birth mother of the three children. It did not matter how Luca treated them.

Old Master Crawford stole a glance at Luke. He was also observing Luca's actions.

After Luca tucked Tommy in, she took the document from Johann's hands and briefly browsed through it. "We'll have to do a bacteria culture test. I suspect that Tommy ate something wrong, and he's down with a bacteria infection."

Luke frowned slightly when he heard that.

He knew that Tommy's fever was caused by the impostor Bianca's cookies.

"Everything that Tommy ate in the past few days was prepared by the household cook, except last Sunday, when they went over to your house. What could have possibly caused the bacterial infection?" Old Master Crawford raised his doubts.

Even though he pampered the children, he was quite strict when it cto matters concerning their health. He did not allow the children to eat junk food even if they begged him for it, and the caretakers and driver knew better than to disobey his orders.

Luca could sense that Old Master Crawford was suspecting her. She said, "It's true that I made some croissants for the children that day, but the ingredients were freshly bought from the supermarket. If there's something wrong with the food, then all three children and..."

She paused for a while and looked at Luke. "All three children and Mr. Crawford ate the croissants. Tommy shouldn't be the only one affected."

Luke already knew the cause of Tommy's sickness. After Luca finished explaining herself, he added, "There's nothing wrong with the food last Sunday. Tommy might have sneakily bought and eaten some unhealthy food when no one was looking. The most important thing now is to diagnose the infection so that the doctors can treat it."

Old Master Crawford frowned. He did not look very happy.

Johann tried to ease the tension in the room. "That's right, Luke. I'll get a nurse to collect a sample so that we can perform the bacteria culture test. It'll take a day before we get results. In the meantime, the nurse will take Tommy's temperature every half an hour. Don't worry."

Luca watched Johann leave, then turned her head to look at the child on the bed. She would only know what caused Tommy's fever the next day...

She wanted to stay behind to take care of Tommy, but Luke and Old Master Crawford were in the room. She was only an outsider, and she had no reason to stay.

Even though Old Master Crawford did not say it, she could tell that he was not pleased with her presence. To him, Luca had no relation to the family. If she was too eager, he might think that she had an ulterior motive.

There was no choice but to leave...

"Mr. Crawford, if the test results are only ready by tomorrow, I should return to the company and continue my work," Luca said, trying hard not to show that she was worried.

Luke stared at her. "Aren't you going to give Tommy a prescription?"

"I'm not taking the risk; the child's body is weak. I can only do that after the bacteria culture test report is out," Luca said, taking into consideration Tommy's condition.

Tommy was her son, and she knew his physical condition very well.

Luke thought what Luca said made sense; it was better to err on the side of caution when the cause of Tommy’s fever was yet known. He nodded and said, "Thank you."

"Don't mention it. Tommy is a good boy." Luca turned around and looked at Tommy again. His body temperature had returned to normal, and his face was a healthy color. His lips were dry and slightly cracked, so she said, "The fever might return again. When he's awake, you should feed him warm water. If he's sleeping, you can dab his lips with a moist cotton swab."

"Yes, Ms. Craw. I'll do that for him," the caretaker said.

Luca nodded at Luke, bowed slightly to Old Master Crawford, and left the room.

Old Master Crawford stood up and walked to the side of the bed with his walking stick. He sighed as he gazed at the sleeping child.

"I want to drink coffee. Go and buy scoffee for me," the old man said to the caretaker.

The caretaker put away the glass of water in her hand and left the room.

After the caretaker left, only Old Master Crawford and Luke remained in the room.

Old Master Crawford did not beat around the bush. 'Luke, are you hiding something from me?"

Luke could tell that he would not be able to hide the truth

from his grandfather for much longer. He nodded but did not say anything.

"What is it?" Old Master Crawford asked.

"I can't tell you yet," Luke said.

Old Master Crawford knew that Luke had a reason for doing so. He nodded and stopped asking him questions.

After leaving the office in the evening, Luca met Amur in front of her apartment.

She knew that Amur had been keeping a close eye on Gale and Rain. After they went into the house and she stored the food from the supermarket in the fridge, she asked, "What are your findings today?"

Amur told her truthfully, "Gale and Rain never left the mansion. Luke was at the mansion, but he only stayed there for half an hour."

"Luke was there? When?" Luca asked.

"He entered the mansion at eight o'clock and left at eightthirty," Amur said.

Luca remembered what Luke said. He said that Bianca had gone traveling overseas.

She thought that it was not the truth. She was also quite confident that Bianca had caused Tommy's fever.

'Amur, can you investigate if Bianca has left the country?" Luca asked.

Amur nodded. "Alright, no problem. Why do you want to know that though?"

"Luke..." She paused for a while before she continued, "Mr. Crawford said that Bianca is currently traveling overseas, but I don't think that's the case. She might be held captive somewhere."
