Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1162

Rainie nodded as she listened to what her brother said. Soon, they heard a knock on the door and their butler's voice. "Master Blanche, Miss Rainie, are you two inside?"

"We're here!" Lanie and Rainie said at the same time.

"It's time to go downstairs for breakfast. Otherwise, you'll be late for school," the butler said. The two children were usually punctual at the dining table, but the butler did not see them, so he went upstairs to remind them.

"It's Founder's Day at our school today, Mr. Griffin. We don't have to go to school," Rainie said.

The butler thought for a while and realized that it was the case; he had forgotten about it because he had been too busy. "I see. However, your Great-Grandpa is waiting for the two of you downstairs."

Old Master Crawford might dote on them, but he was also strict toward them.

The children were not supposed to sleep in, they had to eat three meals a day, and they had to exercise three times a week. Those were the rules that Old Master Crawford had set for them.

"We know. We'll go downstairs soon," Lanie said.

The butler went downstairs.

"Do you understand what I told you?" Lanie looked at Rainie.

"Yes, Lanie." Rainie nodded to show her understanding.

Lanie opened the bedroom door, and the twins went downstairs. Tommy was already at the dining table eating his breakfast. When Old Master Crawford saw the twins, he asked them, "What were you doing in the room?"

"Good morning, Great-Grandpa. It's a school holiday today, so Lanie and I were discussing what we should do for the rest of the day." Rainie smiled sweetly and sat next to Old Master Crawford.

Tommy's eyes sparkled when he heard that. "I want a school holiday too!"

"You'll have to go to school," Lanie said coolly.

Tommy went to a different school than the twins.

"No, Lanie. I wanna play with you." Tommy wished that he could have a holiday so that he could go and visit Luca.

Lanie pretended to ignore Tommy. They could not involve their younger brother in their plan today!

Before Tommy could say anything, the driver came into the dining hall. "It's time to go to school, Tommy."

Tommy glanced at his elder siblings, but they said nothing. His pleading gaze turned toward Old Master Crawford. "Great-Grandpa…"

"Didn't you already have a day off from school yesterday? You should go to school today." Old Master Crawford did not coddle him.

Tommy could only pout and leave with his backpack.

Lanie and Rainie exchanged glances. Eventually, Rainie said, "Great-Grandpa, Lanie and I would like to go to Simon's house to play. Can we?"

"Simon? That Holston kid?" Old Master Crawford narrowed his gaze.

"Yes!" Rainie hugged Old Master Crawford's arm. "Our teacher told us that we should get along with our classmates, so we thought of taking the opportunity to improve our friendship with him."

That was what Lanie asked Rainie to tell the old man. It was much more convincing when it came out of Rainie's mouth.

"Yes, you can, but you'll have to let Uncle Zander bring you there," Old Master Crawford said.

"Yes, Great-Grandpa." Rainie smiled sweetly and winked at Lanie. The first step of their plan was a success.

She left the room with the strands of hair. Lanie was already waiting for her in the living room.

Rainie placed the strands of hair into Lanie's palm and said, "I'll go and tell the cook to prepare breakfast for Mommy. Otherwise, she'll suspect us."

Lanie nodded. He held the strands of hair tightly in his palm and went to his bedroom.

Both of them suspected that Bianca was not their real mother, so they had to confirm it for themselves.

While Rainie told the cook in the kitchen to make some toast for Bianca, Old Master Crawford grunted. He was not happy that Bianca was lazy.

In a moment, Bianca slowly walked down the stairs while yawning.

"If you're still sleepy, you should go back to sleep. You don't have to eat breakfast," Old Master Crawford said.

Bianca smiled. She was used to Old Master Crawford acting so hostile toward her. "I haven't been sleeping well recently, Grandpa. I didn't mean to…"

Old Master Crawford glared at her. Was she the same woman that Luke married?

He regretted telling Luke to find Bianca no matter what it took. If he had known that Bianca's personality would change so drastically after she lost her memories, he would rather the three children grow up without a mother!

Bianca went directly into the living hall, not waiting for Old Master Crawford to retort.

Rainie and Lanie walked down the stairs. They were carrying their backpacks.

Lanie said, "Great-Grandpa, Uncle Zander is already here. Can we go to Simon's house?"

"Of course you can. You'll have to mind your manners when you're at someone else's house, alright?" Old Master Crawford did not expect that the twins would be good friends with Simon, though he did not suspect anything.
