Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 217

Chapter 217 Mr. Crawford Continues to Hoodwink Bianca...

Bianca put the keys away, changed into slippers, tiptoed into the bedroom, and found two blankets.

She draped one over Lanie's body and the other over Rainie, who was sleeping soundly on Daddy's tummy...

Bianca was about to walk away when the man on the couch suddenly opened his bloodshot eyes.

His eyes looked tired under the angular brow ridge. Blood vessels could be seen at the corners of his eyes.

On other days, she would tell her not to work so hard and rest more, out of concern as his employee or as the father of her children.

However, Bianca was speechless.

Every word that Jason said over the phone lingered in Bianca’s mind.

"Boss received a dinner invitation after he got back yesterday. He left the two children in the apartment, and no one was around to take care of them

"Boss drank a little too much last night, and we haven't managed to contact him at the hotel..."

Luke was wholly unqualified as a single parent.

After Luke woke up, Rainie also woke up. After Rainie woke up, Lanie woke up too.

Lanie rubbed his eyes. When he saw that Rainie was there, he hugged her thigh and said pitifully, "Why are you here, Miss Bea?"

His voice sounded very nasal, perhaps because he had just woken up.

When Bianca heard that, tears welled up in her eyes. She crouched down and touched her son's face. "Where did you bring your sister yesterday? You know that we're all worried about you, right?” ‘Yesterday, Daddy, Rainie, and I were napping in the house. In the morning,

Daddy went to the grocery store and tried to cook breakfast. Even though Daddy looked gloomy and his fried eggs were inedible, Rainie and I are very happy that he's willing to learn,' Lanie thought.

However, when Daddy cback home, busy from work, he told Lanie and Rainie in a stern tone that they needed to tell a lie if they wanted Miss Bea to be their mother and live with them forever.

They needed to make Daddy the bad guy.

Then, they would wait with Daddy for Miss Bea. She would definitely come.

As they waited, Lanie and Rainie fell asleep.

"I'm sorry, Miss Bea. I won't do it again," Lanie apologized. He sounded repentant, and he buried his face in Bianca's lap.

Bianca hugged the little boy, touched his cheek, and kissed his head." Please don't do that next time... Tell me, where did you and Rainie go last night? Were you scared? How did you get home?"

The barrage of questions confused Lanie, who was not prepared to answer any of them. He turned and looked at his father with his puppy eyes.

Luke went to the bathroom. While he washed his face, he said with a hoarse voice, "The kid found shelter in a KFC for the night. My phone was off, and there was no one in the manor."

Perhaps the kids had called the manor, but no one picked up. Even if they took a cab there, the door would be locked.

However, both Luke and Jason had the key to the apartment.

"Why didn't you go and look for Daddy or Uncle Doyle?" Bianca asked doubtfully.

Lanie pressed his lips together, worried that Bianca would think that he was stupid...

’Stupid daddy! Do you expectto make up so many excuses?' "I... I don't have money to take a cab, and I'm afraid that we found a baddie driver who might kidnap us..."

Rainie's expression evoked more pity. She looked like she had just woken up and about to cry.

After comforting the little boy, Bianca went to comfort the little girl. When they were more at ease, Bianca kissed them and said, "You must be so tired last night. Go to the bedroom and sleep."

The two little ones were not sleepy at all, though they had to keep up with the lie. They pretended that they were tired and snuggled into the blanket...

Bianca saw the two children close their eyes, and left the bedroom, and closed the door.

Once outside, she looked around for Luke.

He was not in the living room or the bathroom. She finally found him standing at the balcony smoking. His broad shoulders once made Bianca feel safe, but now she did not trust him as much.

She stepped into the balcony. "If you don't have the tto take care of the kids, I'd like to help," she said without any consideration for the consequences.

No mother in this world would want to hear the news that their children were starving or lost.

"I've never taken away your right to take care of them." Luke snuffed the cigarette in the ashtray and turned around to speak to her.

The balcony was cramped. Bianca looked at the tall and well-built man in front of her and did not know what he was thinking.

Luke looked like a noble gentleman no matter the tor occasion, but an individual who had lived a simple life could not imagine how complicated his life could be.

Bianca remembered that Jason had said that someone had invited Luke to dinner. She could not help but wonder how important the dinner could be for a father to leave his children alone for the entire night.

She was indignant that Luke did not know how to take care of the children, but she thought that she did not have the right to reprimand him.

Luke looked at her and asked her a question she could not answer. ''Given your current condition, how are you going to take care of the children?" "I..." Bianca was at a loss. She looked at Luke with frustration.

She stood there for a long tuntil Luke walked away and left her on the balcony...

Lanie and Rainie were only five years old. They would not know how to take care of themselves.

Old Master Crawford was elderly, and he was in the hospital. The caretakers in Crawford Manor could not be wholly depended upon as they had other tasks to do.

The only suitable candidate was their grandmother Allison. Allison was not too elderly, and she was capable of taking care of her grandchildren.

However, she was not relieved when she was reminded of Allison's antics.

The two young children could only depend on their single father. Bianca remembered what Jason said about last night and felt sorrier than ever.

She went to the bathroom and spoke to the man who was shaving. "I can travel between the small town and A City. The trains are convenient, but I wouldn't be able to fetch them to and from school."

Luke did not stop shaving. Bianca could not tell what Luke was thinking from his reflection in the mirror.

Soon, the smell of aftershave permeated the bathroom. He turned around and looked at Bianca's nervous face. "I agree with whatever your decision might be, but my mother might not."

Bianca nearly forgot how troublesAllison could be...

Luke seemed to have thought of how to solve that problem. "So, well go to do a DNA test in the afternoon."

No one could stop a mother from reuniting with their children...
