Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 25

The older woman looked at Bianca, whose expression had not changed at all. She thought to herself with full contempt, ‘As expected of a homewrecker, she’s so cold-blooded and heartless! Her own sister has been insulted, but she doesn’t seem to care at all!”

Daisy was really regretting it now. If she had known this would happen, she should have used

that insult on the b*tch instead!

The subway had barely passed the East Gate station when Daisy could not hold it in anymore. She looked at Bianca and said, “How could you be so heartless, girl?”

Bianca looked at her.

How was she being heartless?

At the same time, she was very curious. What else could this old Daisy hag say with her wagging tongue and utter lack of scruples?

Daisy glared at her. “When we boarded the subway, you tried to take my seat, didn’t you? Look at me! I’m already over fifty, so why are you trying to fight me for a seat? You’re so young, but you’re not good enough to earn enough money for a car, so you come to the subway and steal the seats from us poor old ladies who can barely walk!

“Sigh, thank goodness my son is capable enough. He bought a car a long time ago!” Daisy looked so smug when she said that.

When Marie heard that, her back straightened too. She turned around, not even bothering to hide the anticipation on her face as she waited to see Bianca humiliated.

The other young people in the subway were insulted too. They did not earn much and could not afford a car, but some of them also thought that the subway was more convenient. Better that than getting stuck in traffic.

Nevertheless, the old woman was aiming that jab at Bianca, so the others just thought of it as a free sideshow.

“I just graduated and returned to the country. My family wasn’t rich to begin with, but thankfully I worked a few more jobs when I was studying. I gave the money I earned to my elders at home so they could buy a car. After all, it’s fine for young people like us to squeeze in the subway. We shouldn’t let our poor elderly parents fight the subway rush, can we? That would be so unfilial,” Bianca replied to the woman calmly, meeting her gaze head-on.

Daisy glared at Bianca, so angry she could spew fire!

The other passengers in the subway began laughing again, but this time they were laughing at that troublemaking old woman.

Would she go home and accuse her son of being unfilial, then?

Just then, the subway reached another stop. Daisy could not stand all the sniggers around her, so she shoved some of the youngsters nearby aside and ran out of the subway, her expression stormy.

Marie continued following Bianca.

Bianca did not go anywhere after disembarking from the subway. She just wandered the busy streets slowly, occasionally raising her head and looking at the impressive buildings in the city.

Bianca had a dream, and that was to build a building that was meaningful to her.

Marie followed Bianca down a street before she could not take it anymore. The sun was scorching hot, and it made her skin hurt.

Before she left, she looked at Bianca as though the latter was crazy. Bianca could not even keep her man, so why was she in the mood to go window-shopping?!

Marie then looked at the scorching sun and started feeling jealous of Bianca again. How could that woman stand under the sun for so long without ever growing dark?!

A cab stopped in front of her, and Marie got into it angrily.

She slammed the door shut and left.

Bianca stared at the library in the center of the city, mesmerized. Finally, she took out her phone and found a better angle to take a photo, saving it in her phone. She planned to study it carefully when she went home.

Only work could help her simplify her thoughts.

Upon returning to her rented unit, Bianca put her bag down and changed into her slippers. She then went into her room and turned on her work laptop, analyzing the buildings she had taken photos off.

That took her until midnight.

The entire afternoon, Jean had not called her or sent her any messages.

It was past midnight after Bianca had bathed and planned to go to sleep when her phone vibrated twice.

She frowned and walked over to take her phone, checking the messages.
