Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 981

Bianca brought the framed five-foot-long cross-stitch into the living room. Queenie quickly went forward and helped her, "That's so heavy! Why didn't you get the caretaker to help you?"

After they put the cross-stitch on the couch, Bianca smiled and said, "It's not very heavy, Mom. Where's Dad?"

"He knows that Tommy is coming, and he's messing around with something in the study." Queenie bent slightly and patted Tommy's head.

"Good morning, Grandma!" Tommy greeted Queenie.

"Good morning! You're a good boy, Tommy!" Queenie looked at her grandson lovingly. She grabbed a handful of candy on the coffee table and stuffed them in Tommy's hands.

All children loved candy, including Tommy. He held the candy in his hands and said sweetly, "Thank you, Grandma! I love you the most!"

"Do you love Grandpa then?" Jack said as he walked down the stairs. He heard what Tommy said earlier.

Tommy turned his head to look at Jack and nodded. "I love you too, Grandpa!"

Jack was happy as he looked at Tommy's adorable face. He patted the little boy's head and handed him a toy.

"I made this for you. Do you like it?"

Tommy opened his eyes wide and stared at the whirligig in his grandfather's hands. "What's that, Grandpa?"

"It's a whirligig. You play it like this." Jack demonstrated it to Tommy, then put it in his hands.

Tommy put all the candy into his pocket and started playing with the toy.

Jack felt quite accomplished when he saw that Tommy was having fun with it.

Bianca said, "It must be tiring to make that, Dad. You should have rested instead."

She heard from Queenie that Jack was involved in a large-scale city-planning project recently. The daily meetings lasted until eleven o'clock at night.

Jack's health was already past his prime. Bianca did not want him to spend his time messing around with toys instead of resting during his free time.

Jack shook his head. He was satisfied seeing that Tommy was happy. "It's no big deal. Is it fun, Tommy?"

"Yes, Grandpa, you're the best!" Tommy gestured a thumbs-up at Jack.

Bianca patted Tommy's head, seeing how happy he was. "What do you say when you receive a present?"

"Thank you, Grandpa. Thank you, Grandma." Tommy was having fun with his new toy.

Jack smiled and patted Tommy's head too. "Where's Lanie and Rainie? Also, why isn't Luke here too?"

"Rainie is in her ballet class, and Lanie is in his German class. Luke is on a business trip to handle some sudden company matters," Bianca replied. She pointed to the cross-stitch and said, "Aunt Wanda has a present for you, Dad. She made it herself. Do you want to hang it up?"

"Galloping horses? Not bad. Please thank Wanda on my behalf." Jack glanced around the living room and said decisively, "Let's hang it on this wall. It's been missing something. What do you think, Queenie?"

Queenie smiled. "I think that's a good idea."

"I'll get the caretaker to hang it up later." Jack decided.

"Mm." Bianca smiled gently when she saw that her parents loved the present.

Jack's position in the local government made it hard for him to accept gifts. The cross-stitch was perfect; it was not too expensive, and at the same time it suited his tastes.
