Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 916

"What's wrong?" Bianca lowered her head and looked at Tommy. His round face was full of grievances as though someone had treated him unfairly.

Tommy hugged her leg tightly and complained, "Mrs. Solana says that I can't sleep with you."

The caretaker felt helpless when she heard the little boy say that, but she did not want to be too agitated in front of Luke.

Bianca patted Tommy's head. Before she could say anything, Luke said, "Tommy, do you remember what I told you?"

Tommy turned his head and looked at him. He thought for a long while before saying, "You said that I'm a big boy now!"

"And you need to learn to be independent," Luke added the second half of the sentence that Tommy forgot. He bent over, patted Tommy's head, and picked him up. "That's why you should pick a room that you like and don't always cling to your Mommy."

Tommy blinked innocently and reflected upon what his father told him.

Eventually, Tommy compromised and jumped onto the floor. "Alright, I'll pick the room next to Lanie's!"

"Mm." Luke nodded.

The caretaker held Tommy's hand and led him to the bedroom.

Soon, Sean came upstairs with Lanie and Rainie's backpacks.

Bianca smiled at Luke. "The caretaker will be very busy unpacking for the children. Let me help her."

Luke had hired a cleaner to clean the mansion periodically. Without a live-in caretaker, the beds remained undone.

"Alright."

Bianca helped Rainie put on the bed sheet.

She opened the closet and could not help but smile when she found a set of pink bed sheets inside. Luke knew what Rainie's favorite color was.

She unfolded the bedsheet and placed it on the bed.

"Let me help you, Mommy," Rainie said.

"Good girl." They fitted the bedsheet, then prepared the pillows and blanket.

Rainie looked at her mother busy at work and was slightly confused. Her Mommy was so kind, so why did other people want to ruin her reputation?

"Mommy…" Curiosity eventually overcame Rainie.

Bianca turned her head and looked at her daughter. "Yes, my dear?"

"Why do people want to harm you?" Rainie asked the question that had been troubling her. This incident, as well as the previous abduction, had affected her greatly.

Bianca's heart softened. She hugged Rainie.

"I don't know either." She smiled gently. Perhaps life was fair like that. After giving her a loving husband and a happy family, fate threw a few obstacles in her way.

Rainie rested her head on her mother's chest. "I think those people are evil. You're the best Mommy in the world, and you love Daddy and us. Why must they do that to you?"

"We can't control what other people do to us, Rainie. What we can control is how we deal with it. As long as we remain true to ourselves, they won't be able to hurt us," Bianca patiently explained to Rainie, hoping that it will alleviate the little girl's worries.

Rainie was still young, and she should not carry too many negative emotions.

"Mm." Rainie sniffed, and the worry in her eyes went away. "Let's make the bed and go and help Lanie and Tommy."

"Alright." Bianca ruffled her hair. Rainie was so considerate.
