Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1199

"Norman Residence?" Bianca felt bitter when she thought of Jack's face.

Jack always had a stern face that was a little too serious whenever they were in the same room. His majestic gaze seems to be able to see through everything.

There was also Queenie, who was so fragile. Every time Bianca went to the Norman Residence, she had to do all kinds of housework for Queenie to maintain the image of a good daughter.

Bianca hated all of this.

"Mm." Luke noticed her resistance and did not choose to accommodate her this time.

Bianca looked at the calmness on his face and felt slightly disappointed that he did not show any empathy toward her.

Luke was not saying anything to help her out of this, which meant that she had to go.

Bianca was not happy about it but dared not express it. Too many things had happened recently. If it were in the past, she could turn him down, but in the situation that she was in now, she could no longer take any risks that would cause Luke to dislike her even more.

She said, "I’ll go get ready."

"Mm, we’ll wait for you downstairs." Luke turned to leave when he saw that Bianca agreed.

Bianca looked at him as he left. She was tightly clutching the door frame with her hand, and some sawdust had gotten into her nails.

Luke cared about her less as the days went by.

Bianca wandered downstairs half an hour later. Luke had finished breakfast and the kids were seated around the table, drinking juice.

"Luke, I'm ready." She walked over feebly.

Luke nodded and handed her a plate. "Have some breakfast before we head over."

Old Master Crawford, who was sitting on the chair, put down the newspaper and took off his reading glasses when he heard what Luke said. He said, "Luke, I have something for Ol' Norman. Pass it to him when you see him later."

"What is it?" Luke asked.

"Mr. Griffin, please bring it to me," Old Master Crawford said.

When he heard that, the butler bowed slightly and left the dining room. After a while, he returned with a bag in his hand.

"These are kolinsky sable paintbrushes. I heard that Ol' Norman used to paint but stopped after your mother-in-law fell sick. Send this to him. Maybe he’ll have some use for it in the future.” Old Master Crawford took the bag from the butler and handed it to Luke.

Bianca enjoyed her breakfast while listening to Old Master Crawford’s words.

She was surprised that Old Master Crawford treated Jack so well. It seemed likely that as soon as Queenie recovered, Jack would return to politics.

However, none of these had anything to do with her. She did not want to be involved with anyone from the Norman family.

"I'll pass it to my father-in-law." Luke took the bag. It was heavy, so he placed it gently on the side.

The brushes were probably from Old Master Crawford’s own collection.

It was intriguing that he decided to gift items from his precious collection to Jack.

After Bianca was done with breakfast, Luke drove her and the kids to Norman Residence.

They had informed Jack and Queenie in advance that they were visiting. When Luke arrived at the Norman Residence, Jack and Queenie were waiting for them in the living room.

In the past, Queenie would usually be resting in her room around this time.

Queenie smiled and waved at the kids. "Lanie, Rainie, Tommy, come here. Come to Grandma."

The three walked to her.
