Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 133

Bianca searched for Grandpa for nearly an hour.

However, she still could not find him anywhere.

She started panicking.

After she went back upstairs and looked around the empty rental place, she found that Grandpa had completely disappeared.

Grandpa's cane was gone as well. ‘Could it be that he was walking with his cane when he went downstairs?’

However, Bianca knew that Grandpa did not normally use his cane unless he was traveling long distance and needed it for support.

Dispirited, Binaca walked into Grandpa’s bedroom.

She remembered that before she went on the date with Brayden, Grandpa was fine.

However, during dinner time, Grandpa had said earnestly, "Sometimes I can't help but think that it's not good to live too long. I’m getting older by the hour and becoming more of a burden to you..."

‘Could it be that Grandpa ran away from home?’

Bianca shook her head. Grandpa would never do such a thing.

When she opened Grandpa’s closet, Bianca took a closer look. She was not sure how many sets of clothes Grandpa brought to A City. She could not tell if there were a few sets of clothes missing or not.

However, the closet looked like it had gone through some ruffling.

‘Did Grandpa really take his clothes and cane and ran away from home…’

Bianca could not calm herself down, so she took out her cell phone to call her aunt who she had not talked to for a long time.

However, even if Grandpa ran away from home, he would not have gone to her place.

"Sorry, the number you have dialed is not in service..."

The not in service tone was heard from her phone.

Her aunt’s cell phone number was not in service, which meant that it had been a long time since she used that number.

Bianca called her dad.

Kevin just chatted a little with her and sounded normal, telling her that he was fine and that she should not worry. He also told her to have a good day at work tomorrow. These were things he normally said.

When she heard what her dad said, Bianca knew that Grandpa's disappearance had nothing to do with him.

All her doubts pointed to the possibility of Grandpa running away from home because he did not want to burden his granddaughter…

When Bianca furrowed her brows and got even more anxious, she inadvertently saw the food box on the floor near the wall in the doorway. She went over, crouched down, and opened the food box. There was a card inside.

The image printed on the card was romantic and warm.

There was no name written on it to signify who it was from.

Bianca's heart was more flustered than before.

She pursed her lips and stood up with difficulty. She was silent for about a minute. When she looked down at the desserts on the ground again, she suddenly remembered that Luke stopped her on the way back from Xavier’s manor as she was walking back to the city.

Perhaps Luke saw the text that Brayden sent to tell her about the dessert place that was all the rage with girls.

How did Luke react?

He looked cold and indifferent with a really stern look on his face.

However, once the childish side of him appeared, it was scarier than high school students in love. He was going to be salty and petty about everything.

Bianca hardly needed to think before she guessed who sent the dessert.

Bianca took her bag, opened the door, and went out. At the same time, she gave Luke a call.

By the time she got downstairs, she still did not manage to get through to Luke’s phone.

After calling him several times, her phone prompted that the number she dialed could not be reached at the moment.

As Bianca stood in the elevator, her mind started wandering off. ‘Luke must’ve sent someone to take Grandpa away. It’s impossible for Grandpa to be lost. He must be drinking tea and playing chess with Old Master Crawford.’

Last time, it was Luke who took Grandpa to the Crawford manor.

After that, Grandpa told her that he was walking around the neighborhood when he was surrounded by a bunch of hooligans. Grandpa said that it was a good thing Luke rushed over and sorted it out.

That was why Luke brought Grandpa back to his place.

When Bianca left her place, she hailed a taxi.
