Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3424

“What are you spacing out for?” Allison waited a few seconds, but when she saw that Sophian still had not taken the scarf, she turned to look at her, only to find her staring blankly at Lanie. She was clearly displeased.

Of course, she knew Lanie looked like Luke, but did she really have to stare at him like that?

Sophian came back to her senses and quickly took the scarf, fumbling to explain, “I just think Young Master Blanche looks a lot like Mr. Crawford.”

Allison rolled her eyes. “Well, duh. They’re father and son. How could they not look alike?”

Sophian let out an awkward chuckle and said nothing more.

Turning back, Allison softened her expression as she looked at Lanie. “Lanie, dear, tell me—what are you reading?”

Lanie held up his book and replied, “Grandma, I'm reading a medical book.”

Allison froze for a moment. A medical book?

A bad feeling crept up on her. “Why are you reading medical books?”

“I think they're interesting,” answered Lanie, a little confused by her reaction. Why could he not read medical books?

It was just reading. Besides, his father never said anything about it.

Allison frowned and pondered for a moment before asking, “How did you do on your final exams this semester?”

“Rainie, Tommy, and I all got perfect scores,” answered Lanie.

“Perfect scores?” Allison's face lit up with a broad smile.

However, Sophian, who was beside them, was completely stunned. “Perfect scores? That’s amazing!”

Allison rolled her eyes at her. “Why are you making such a big deal out of it?”

Sophian awkwardly explained, “No, I just think Young Master Blanche is really impressive. I have a nephew who's the same age as him, but he only got around 90 this semester.”

Allison was beaming with pride and reached out to pat Lanie’s head. However, he dodged before she could touch him.

Allison paused for a moment, then brushed it off. She knew Lanie took after Luke. They both disliked physical affection.

“My grandkids have excellent genes. How can you compare them to other kids? Just look at Luke. His intelligence comes from me. He’s always been great at academics.” While showering the child with compliments, she made sure to slip in a bit of praise for herself too.

Lanie was rendered speechless.

He had no idea how Allison did in school. That was way too long ago to verify. However, if she really was as smart as she claimed, then why had she been deceived so easily?

Now that she had made a complete mess of herself, she looked neither human nor ghost. Was that what she called being smart?

Lanie was not the only one skeptical. Sophian had her doubts too.

If Allison was so capable, then why did she need an interpreter when she went to Seoul?

In her generation, a proper upbringing in a prestigious family would have included learning other languages. Allison could not even get a few simple words right.

Was this what she called being educated?

Sophian kept her thoughts to herself, not daring to voice them. She kept her gaze fixed on Lanie.

Lanie could feel her gaze, and it made him uncomfortable. Still, he endured it.

He knew this woman had feelings for his father, which was why she kept staring at him like that.

As for Allison’s constant praise, he had long since become numb to it. After all, everyone he met always had something nice to say about him. Whether they were sincere or just pretending, he could not be bothered to tell the difference.

According to his father, there was no need to overthink it. As long as he knew he was good, that was enough.
