Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 175

Bianca lowered her head and ate her breakfast while she listened to the conversation between the adult and the children. She wanted to say something. She wanted to say that the town was fun…

There were certain sceneries that children living in cities were not able to see.

“Aunt Bea…”

“Aunt Bea…”

The two children started begging Bianca.

Lanie and Rainie knew that their stupid father would definitely listen to Aunt Bea, so they wanted to ask Aunt Bea for help. They wanted her to help them take care of their stupid father.

Luke looked at Bianca, and his stern eyebrows started relaxing slightly. His attitude did a 180 change after talking to his children sternly. “The other children started school one month ago. Lanie and Rainie are one month late.”

When Bianca heard that, she looked at the children with a surprised expression on her face. “Then you two should go to school…”

Lanie and Rainie became deflated instantly.

It was eight in the morning when Luke made a call to Crawford Manor.

Lanie and Rainie’s bags and uniforms were all prepared.

Then, Jason drove over to pick the items up.

When he arrived at Crawford Manor, the people in the manor were all having breakfast.

The old master’s butler cum driver walked over and opened the door for Jason. The two then walked in together.

Before they walked in, Jason heard the boss’ mother, Allison, talking.

“Dad, I like Bea too, but what I’m worried about is that it might be bad for us if word about this gets out. What will happen to the Crawfords’ reputation? My in-laws would be fine. The Tanners isn’t a big family. No one would pay attention to us if nothing major happened, but the Crawfords aren’t the same…” Allison did not have the mood to eat the porridge in front of her.

The old master ate his breakfast slowly. “Even if the entire city knows about this, we’re in the right as well. That Tanner kid had no right to say anything. If we’re in the right, we won’t be afraid of anything. If we keep trying to preserve our image, then you’re allowing that Tanner kid to commit crimes!”

Allison’s face fell. “Dad, I’m the daughter-in-law of the Crawfords and I gave birth to an exceptional heir for the family. Even if what Xavier did is wrong, he’s still my nephew. Can you at least preserve some dignity for me? Don’t force my in-laws to break their relationship with the Crawfords. Xavier is in the wrong, but there will be a big price to pay if we dig into the facts about who’s right and who’s wrong. Xavier might even lose everything!”

“Lose everything?” The old master lifted his head and tried to clear up his vision to look at his daughter-in-law who was not what she seemed. “That Tanner kid is the one who did this to himself. Plus, I believe the Tanners can rebuild themselves. They won’t be able to go hungry nor die just like this!”

After he said that, the old master slammed down his utensils.

The maid went over after she heard the noise and handed the old master his cane. It was getting cold recently and the old master’s rheumatism was getting worse. He needed a cane to support himself.

Susan walked downstairs with a pair of silk pajamas on and looked at Allison who was utterly defeated. She could not help but mock, saying, “I guess the old master knows that you Tanners are used to doing all sorts of heinous things. Look at you. You’re just a mistress who became the legally wedded wife. You’re a call girl who turned into the madam of a rich family. Do you think you’re the owner of this family now—”

“Susan, you best shut your mouth!” Allison slammed her hand down on the table and stood up. She did not care about her image anymore.

Susan was indifferent. She sat down and took the bowl of porridge that was handed over to her by the maid. “What are you screaming about? Do you think I’m the maid who serves you? If you Tanners are not sinister by nature, according to your fate, you would be a piece of trash that I won’t look at even if you washed my feet for me.”

The butler and Jason walked in at the same time. Even though they were used to this, they still coughed to tell the matriarchs of the family not to go overboard.

Jason nodded at the two matriarchs and followed the maid upstairs to take the young master and young lady’s bags and uniforms.

On the other side, Bianca followed the adult and the children out the door.

She went to her office first before handing the children to Jason.

Luke’s car was parked in the parking spot of the residential area. He put Lanie and Rainie into the car and shut the door. Then, he opened the passenger seat to let Bianca get in.
