Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 166

Xavier did not reject his mother.

He really did need a chance to resolve the conflict with his dad.

Compared with his father, Xavier thought that he needed to be the bigger person and step down.

The truth was that his father had never gotten angry with him as an unfilial son for long. Every time it happened, he was only angry on the surface, but in less than ten minutes, he would soften up.

His promise to accompany his parents to watch a play or movie happened more than five years ago when he was in prison.

At that time, when his parents visited him at the prison, he was always brought out by the prison guards while dressed in his prison clothes and in handcuffs.

After sitting down, Xavier saw that his parents looked as if they had aged a decade. He stammered and opened his mouth, but no words came out.

He never spoke much with his parents.

At that time, he heard his mother cry across the thick glass. She said, “Son, don't be sad while you’re inside… In the future, be a better person and don’t break the law willfully anymore. Mom and Dad still love you. When you’re released, heed our advice. Get married and have children. Our family will be reunited, and we’ll live peacefully and have a good life..."

His mother said a lot that day. It was mixed with crying, so he could only understand her vaguely.

However, he clearly remembered that his mother said, "If you ever feel sorry for your father and me, then you can make it up to us after you’re released... We don’t need you to have any great achievements, just accompany us to the movies or play. We’d be content..."

When Xavier listened to those words back then, he was motionless like a person without emotions or soul outside. However, he was surprised that his parents' expectations for him were so low.

It turned out being filial to his parents was as simple as that. All he needed to do was accompany them to a play or a movie.

For such a simple thing, he had never done it for his parents in the 20 years before he went to prison.

Today, Xavier drove on the street and was a free man out of prison.

When his mother called and told him that she had bought three tickets for the play, it reminded him of the scene five years ago.

His memories slowly reminded him that it was time for him to fulfill his promise.

...

When she went to the hospital to visit Grandpa, Bianca did not let Luke and his children enter the ward.

After all, she told Grandpa that they were not a good fit. If they appeared together again so quickly after that, she would not know what to say.

After serving lunch to Grandpa, Bianca left first because she had something else to do.

Before she left, she picked up her laptop that she left in the hospital after getting off work yesterday.

In case Sue had a task for her, it would be more convenient if she had her laptop with her.

After lunch, Grandpa strolled around the ward and waved at Bianca, signaling that she should go about her business.

When Bianca walked out of the hospital, she saw the black Range Rover parked in front of the hospital.

When she walked to the car, Luke, who had been smoking a cigarette from somewhere, also came over. The man took her laptop with one hand and opened the car door with the other to let her get in the car.

"What should we eat?" Before she could thank him, the man asked.

Bianca looked back at him. "Let Lanie and Rainie decide."

Luke nodded without commenting and immersed himself in the role of a good husband.

No matter what, he would let the children and the children’s mother have the final say.

After getting in the car, Luke was only responsible for driving.

Bianca searched for a lot of restaurants on her phone and let Lanie and Rainie pick from the back seat.
