Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 127

Blanche no longer wanted to talk to Daddy. He took a towel to dry Rainie’s fingers when she was by the pool, playing happily.

"Why did you get your hair wet? You’re a girl." Blanche sighed. Apart from her strict dad, there was her older brother who was slightly older than her.

He crouched in front of the pool, drying his sister’s hair and face while he solemnly wondered how much easier life would be with a mommy.

Since he was a baby, he always hoped that his mommy would come back to look for Rainie and him. He thought that even if Mommy did not get back together with Daddy, at least she would visit them on the weekends to see Rainie and him because that would be enough.

However, it was different now. Blanche no longer hoped that Mommy would come back to look for them. He just wished that Daddy could marry Aunt Bea and make her their mommy instead.

That way, Rainie could also have a beautiful childhood like other girls.

"Is that... Yvonne?" someone asked and pointed at the manor’s gate.

Blanche looked over and saw a pink sports car entering the manor.

A gaudy-looking middle-aged woman smiled and said to the people beside her, “It’s our Yvonne. It’s been less than a week since she returned from studying abroad. She didn’t even have time to rest before she started working. This kid got a job younger than I did.”

After Mrs. Gideon finished speaking, she stepped forward to greet her daughter who got out of the car.

Yvonne parked the car and glanced at the people in the manor while she walked over with a smile. When her mother walked toward her, she lowered her voice and said, "Are you crazy? Why are you wearing the flashiest designer clothes and a gold chain?! Anyone who sees you will think that you’re a nouveau riche. What’s the point of me showing you all of those fashion magazines to learn how to dress up?!”

Mrs. Gideon was embarrassed. "I did learn how to dress up. Why would you say that I didn’t?”

"Whatever, shut it. I knew you’d embarrass me," Yvonne gritted her teeth and told her mother. She changed the look on her face and walked toward her aunt. She smiled and hugged her. She said softly, "Aunty, you’re getting younger by the year. I can hardly recognize you."

"You really know what to say to a woman to make her happy." Her aunt smiled so widely that her smile lines showed. "I heard from your mother that you’ve started work?”

"Yeah, I have.” Yvonne looked around before saying shyly, "At T Corporation."

Even though Luke sat there in a low-key manner and was only looking at his twin babies calmly from the start, it was still enough to attract people's attention.

Many rich girls had been staring at him from the start, eager to get closer to him but also too nervous to make a move.

Yvonne’s aunt saw Yvonne gazing at Luke. She put two and two together when she realized Yvonne started working in T Corporation right after returning to the country.

"Von, you’re so lucky. T Corporation’s very famous. I’ll be waiting for the invitation to your wedding." The woman patted Yvonne on the shoulder.

Yvonne nodded sweetly which meant that her aunt’s guess was right.

The rich and powerful never bothered hiding their gossip. Yvonne’s crush on the big boss Mr. Crawford was widely known for quite some time.

By the time dinner began, the gossip of Luke and Yvonne being a thing became more exaggerated as it spread. "Luke Crawford will do whatever it takes to marry Yvonne Gideon."

When another rich lady heard about the rumor, she said in surprise, "Yvonne? She’s not even that pretty compared to my daughter!”

“Even though your daughter’s beautiful, between a 27-year-old and a 19-year-old, who do you think the man would choose?" The person who told her the rumor asked before tutting.

When the 27-year-old heard that, she was speechless. She snorted while holding her wine glass. "Yeah? Just because that Yvonne chick is young, she can marry into the Crawford family? I’d like to see her try.”

In the distance, the main character of the rumors, Yvonne Gideon, was trying her best to win over Blanche and Rainie.
