Chapter 1012 Children Are Angels
Leia grumbled under her breath when Queenie rejected her offer.
The handbag was not meant for Queenie anyway. If she did not want it, Leia would keep it for herself. She put the handbag back into the shopping bag and said, "Can I discuss something with you, Mom?"
Queenie picked up the knitting needles and looked at her." What is it?"
"The wedding date is getting close, and we're still overwhelmed with work. I was thinking of getting Bianca to helpwith the gown fitting and the guest list," Leia said.
To help Hera, Leia had to lure Bianca out somehow. However, it would be suspicious if she asked Bianca to meet her without any reason.
Asking her to help out at the wedding was the best excuse.
Queenie stopped knitting. They were indeed quite overwhelmed with the preparations. She had started knitting the sweater before she met the Hilton family, and she was not done with it yet.
She would not have the free tto pick up her knitting needles if Leia had not gone to the hotel for the tasting.
She would be happy if Bianca could help out, but she also knew that Bianca had to take care of her own family and career. "Your elder sister must be very busy. We'd better not bother her," she said.
Leia was not going to let go of the opportunity that easily. She held Queenie's arm and said coyly, "But she's my elder sister, Mom. Let's just ask her. We'll think of something else if she's really too busy."
Queenie frowned. She used to think that her daughter was adorable whenever she behaved like that.
Now that her daughter was pregnant, Queenie felt somehow annoyed when she heard what her daughter said. Even though Leia was about to be married, she still thought that the world revolved around her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing that her mother did not speak, Leia said coyly, "Mom ... Bianca isn't busy at all."
Knowing that she was not close to Bianca, Leia needed her mother's help. Bianca would not necessarily agree if Leia had asked her.
Before Queenie could say anything, Jack cin through the front door.
"Why are you back, jack?" Queenie put her knitting needles down and stood up. Jack would not usually chduring lunch hour.
She poured a cup of tea for him.
Jack took off his coat, gulped down the tea, and said, "Do you know? Something happened to the Crawfords."
"What is it?" Queenie was instantly worried that something
bad might have happened to Bianca.
"I heard that a thief broke into Crawford Manor the day before yesterday, and Louis Crawford's daughter was injured." Jack immediately went hafter he knew about it. "Let's pack up. We'll go to the hospital."
Queenie kneaded her hands and said, "That's so serious. Why didn't Bea say anything?"
Louis and Luke might not be born of the smother, they were nonetheless related by blood, and as Bianca's parents, they had the obligation to visit the young girl in the hospital.
"Bianca doesn’t even care about that. Why would she tell you?" Leia stood up and propped her back.
Jack frowned and looked at her daughter. "What nonsense are you talking about?"
He thought that Leia should have known better. If Old Master Crawford heard that, he would misunderstand.
"I'm not talking nonsense. I saw her walking around in a shopping mall with another woman today. If she still has the mood to go shopping after the incident happened, I don't think she cares at all." Leia would not let go of any chance to slander Bianca in front of her parents.
Shopping? Queenie was confused. It was a workday, so why would Bianca be out shopping?
Jack glared at Leia. If she did not watch her mouth after marrying into the Hilton household, she would eventually learn her lesson the hard way.
However, Jack had to get back to work after the lunch hour. He did not have the tto discipline Leia. After Queenie changed her clothes, they left the house.
Glaring at her parents' backs, Leia's gaze becgloomy.
Meanwhile, while Bianca and Vivian were having lunch together, Bianca received a call from her company, saying that she had to go back and handle smatters.
Vivian said that she had nothing to do at the hotel, so she wanted to go along with Bianca.
Bianca took the opportunity to invite Vivian to her house for dinner.
Vivian hesitated.
Bianca knew why she was hesitating. "Gordan will be coming to my house for dinner too. Wouldn't you want to calong?" She said.
"Thank you for your invitation." Vivian smiled when she heard that Gordan would be going too. She nodded and accepted Bianca's invitation.
Bianca first went to the school to pick up Rainie and Lanie.
"They're my elder children. They're twins," Bianca introduced the children to Vivian. "Lanie, Rainie, this is Aunt Vivian. She is from Moscow."
Lanie and Rainie greeted Vivian in Russian.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmVivian was delighted to see the angelic faces of the two children. "I've heard that your children are very goodlooking. Indeed, they're like angels."
Bianca smiled. "I think that your future children will be goodlooking too."
She did not know why Vivian looked so different from her younger brother, but she could tell that their family had good genes.
"You flatter me, Sis." Vivian touched her own face.
"Trust me. All children are angels." Bianca was genuinely thinking so; she was not joking or flattering her.
Vivian agreed with what she said. She felt inexplicably happy looking at the two children sitting quietly in the back seat.
She really loved children.
However, the children in Moscow did not like her. Even if she wanted to play with them, they were not willing to get close to her because of her face.
They said that if they took her snacks, they would becas ugly as her.
Those children had angelic faces, but their hearts were a different thing.
Bianca's twins and Tommy were well-behaved, and they were not afraid of her.
Rainie looked at Vivian and smiled. "Aunt Vivian, do you want smilk?"
Bianca kept a few bottles of milk in the car's fridge for her children's convenience. Rainie took a bottle and handed it to Vivian.
Vivian smiled. "Thank you, Rainie."
Rainie looked at Vivian's facial features intently. Her features were not perfect, but she looked beautiful when she smiled. "You look nice when you smile, Aunt Vivian," she said.
Vivian was shocked. Other than her younger brother Ray, no one else would praise her looks.
She touched her lips while her cheeks slowly turned red. Ray had also said that she was beautiful whenever she flashed a genuine smile. She thought that Ray was only trying to make her feel good.
Do I really look nice?'
