Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 866

Nina tried very hard to control her anger as she watched her mother rob her clean.

Mr. Langdon coughed awkwardly and could not help but reprimand Anna, "I say, Anna, our daughter is already tired from work. Can't you give her a moment of peace? Nina isn't very rich in the first place. Why must you deprive her of every cent? Can't you…"

Anna retorted shrilly, "You're in no position to speak, you useless bum! If you had made your fortune, I wouldn't have to take money from our daughter! Our poor Jean is still suffering in prison! I visited him a few days ago, and I saw that he's become thinner than ever. My poor son! I feel so sorry for him…"

Anna's tears fell like rain as she complained resentfully.

She insulted her husband for being useless while scolding Nina for not bringing enough money home.

Nina wanted to cover her ears.

Eventually, she could not hold it back anymore. "I give you about eight thousand dollars every month, Mom. That's almost a hundred thousand dollars in a year. What else are you not satisfied with? I've already given you more than two million dollars over the last three years. Which other girl would be stupid enough to feed the bottomless hole in their family with their salary?"

Anna prodded Nina's forehead. "That's what you should do. You should help out your family who's in need. Who else in the family can help your brother? Your good-for-nothing dad, or your jobless mother?"

"You shouldn't have spent all your savings on Marie! That woman threatened you with Jean's child to pay for her house. I told you that it was a bad idea, but you don't listen. Now that the child is miscarried and Marie is sent to prison, you can't get the house back, and your savings are gone. You've brought this upon yourself!"

Anna was livid when Marie was mentioned. "Don't mention that b*tch's name in front of me! Jean wouldn't have done such a stupid thing if Marie didn't instigate him. That b*tch deserves to rot in prison! Sigh, my poor grandson. He'd be almost three years old if Marie had given birth to him…"

Nina impatiently handed a napkin to her mother. "Stop crying. There's nothing you can do now that the child is gone. Marie sleeps around with so many men. Who knows if that child is actually Jean's!"

Anna stopped crying abruptly as though she gained an epiphany.

'That's right. That b*tch is a sleazy woman. She's also sleeping with other men even when she's pregnant. How disgusting!

'She might have become pregnant with another man's child and blamed it all on my son.

'Fortunately, the child was miscarried. I wouldn't want to raise someone else's child!'

Even so, Anna remained stubborn. "Your brother will be in prison for another year, and I can't bear to watch him suffer inside there anymore. Can't you help your brother? I met someone a few days ago, and he says that he can help with getting Jean released early. He needs one million…"

Nina rubbed her temples that were beginning to ache. "I'm a single woman with no money or influence. I've already given you all my money, and I don't have any savings. I don't know anyone influential either. Stop trying to pull strings to get Jean released, Mom. Do you remember that you trusted your friend who said that she knew someone in the department that could help Jean? You gave her two million dollars, and where did all that money go? Haven't you learned your lesson? How many more lessons do you need?"
