Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 976

Rainie was not interested in chess, but she was curious about Wanda's handmade objects. "Mommy, I wanna see Grant-Aunt Wanda's handicrafts."

Bianca glanced at the nearby room. That was Wanda's handicraft studio. "You'll have to ask Grand-Aunt Wanda yourself then."

Rainie nodded. She saw that Wanda was coming out from the kitchen with a tray of cut fruit and drinks, so she went to her and asked, "Your handicrafts look beautiful, Grand-Aunt Wanda. May I take a look?"

The little girl was interested in beautiful things. Wanda placed the tray on the coffee table and held Rainie's hand. "Of course you can."

Bianca reminded her daughter, "Careful, don't touch anything without Grand-Aunt Wanda's permission."

"Yes, Mommy." Rainie turned her head and smiled at her. Then, she glanced at her father. All three children were not bothering their parents. Perhaps they could work out the disagreement in the car now.

In the living room, only Luke and Bianca were standing.

Old Master Rayne moved a chess piece and glanced at his granddaughter and grandson-in-law. "Don't just stand there, Luke and Bea. Come over here and have a seat."

"Alright," Bianca replied. She glanced at Luke standing beside her and could not feel any warmth from him. Still feeling dispirited, she walked toward the couch without saying a word.

Luke instantly held her hand gently. "Grandpa, the weather outside is quite nice. I'll sit with Bianca on the balcony."

"Alright." Old Master Rayne did not think too much about it. He thought that it was normal for the married couple.

Luke led Bianca to the balcony.

Old Master Rayne liked to enjoy his afternoon tea at the balcony, so Wanda had furnished it meticulously. There were two rattan chairs and a small round table. Surrounding the place were potted green plants.

Bianca sat on one of the chairs, while Luke sat on the other. The warmth on his face was gone, and he looked stern.

Bianca sighed when she saw his face. She felt uncomfortable.

She had realized her mistake on the drive there, but she could not find the chance to apologize to him. Before Luke opened his mouth, Bianca spoke first, "I'm sorry. I've made a mistake in this incident."

Luke sighed. He kept a stern face to teach her a lesson, but he could not maintain that expression when he saw that she was about to cry.

He moved his chair next to her.

They sat together face-to-face. Bianca lowered her head and glanced at the bruise on her wrist while thinking of what else to say. "You did nothing wrong. You don't have to apologize," Luke said.

Bianca raised her head in shock. "Luke…"

Luke held her hand and gently massaged her wrist. The slightly tingling feeling made her feel comfortable instead of painful.

He was trying to clear her bruise.

"You did nothing wrong. The person at fault is Pierre Mallory," Luke said. He could tell that Bianca had acted on impulse because she cared for Nina.
