Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 969

Chapter 969 We’re Family

Bianca understood instantly. She was also reminded of Louis's new business venture. Everyone in the Crawford family objected to it, and Old Master Crawford was even begging him to find employment in T Corporation.

Only Luke and Bianca did not object. After all, that was Louis's decision." How is Louis's stucoming along?" She asked.

"I've heard that he managed to find enough partners. They're looking for office space now." Luke had been keeping a close eye on Louis's progress, though he tried not to interfere.

Bianca nodded. She understood that it was not easy for Louis to start his business without any help from the family. "Then we should help him wherever we can. Speaking of office space, the tenant above my office moved out not long ago. Do you want to tell Louis that?"

I'll mention it to him tonight." Luke also thought that the location of the office was ideal and the rental was reasonable. "You're so kind, Bea," he smiled and said.

"Louis is your younger brother, and we're family. Shouldn't we help each other out?" Bianca said.

The Crawfords might occasionally make Bianca's life difficult, but Louis had never done that. He had always treated Bianca with the respect she deserved.

"You're right," Luke said emotionally. Even though Allison and Susan did not see each other eye to eye, he and Louis had always been close siblings.

"If you're free, you should try finding out Thea's measurements," he said.

Bianca could instantly guess what he was thinking. "Alright. After I get the measurements, I'll contact the tailor. I wouldn't want his daughter to lose faith in him."

They guessed that Louis would be too busy with his new venture and forget about his promise to his daughter. Also, they did not mention how Thea had torn Rainie's ballet dress.

Bianca thought that she could not ask Yuri about Thea's measurements. Yuri was an egotistical person, and she would not want to accept help from Bianca or Luke. Louis, on the other hand, was a careless man, and Bianca guessed that he would not know his daughter's measurements.

She thought of secretly taking Thea's measurements later that weekend when they would go back to Crawford Manor. She was the one who bought her children's clothes, and she could estimate Thea's measurements more or less accurately.

"Mm." Luke nodded.

At the hospital, Bianca and Luke bought a fruit basket in the supermarket downstairs, as well as some nutritional supplements.

Nina was already thin, and Bianca thought that she would be losing weight in her stay in the hospital. She felt a little sorry for her.

Bianca considered herself lucky to have married Luke. On the other hand, Nina could not escape her past and was a shell of her former cheerful self.

Luke carried the fruit basket, while Bianca carried the relatively lighter supplements. They went to the reception to enquire about Nina's ward before heading there.

Nina was in a ward with two other patients. When they went in, the families of the two other patients were there. It was quite noisy.

Bianca frowned. Nina's bed was closest to the window. She lay there with her eyes closed and not moving, seemingly very alone.

Bianca's heart wrenched as she placed the items on the cabnext to her bed.

Nina was not asleep. She opened her eyes when she heard the sounds next to her and smiled when she saw that it was Bianca. "Why did you come, Bianca, and you too, Mr. Crawford..."

She did not expect that they would cand visit her, and she felt that she had troubled them.

Bianca noticed that Nina's forehead was wrapped in bandages. She sat down on the chair beside the bed and placed her hand on Nina's hands."

Does it hurt?"

Nina shook her head. "I'm fine. I'll just have to stay here for a few more days. You don't have to worry about me."

Bianca sighed and turned her head to look at Luke.

I'll go and have a smoke." Luke gave the two women sprivate space.

"Mm.” Bianca nodded. After the man left, she drew the curtains around the bed to block the prying eyes of the other people in the ward. "Are you hurt anywhere else?" "I bumped my forehead, that's all. I got a few stitches. The doctor also said that my leg was injured, but it's nothing too serious. I'll be out of the hospital in a few days. You don't have to be like that." Nina felt apologetic when she saw how Bianca cared for her.

"You must've gotten a concussion. You'd better not get out of bed today then." Bianca knew that the hard way that a concussion was no trivial matter.

"The doctor toldthat." Nina's heart warmed when she heard Bianca's advice.

Earlier, she felt useless as she was lying on the bed. Nobody showed any concern to her, as though she had never existed in the world.

She was bothered by the noise next to her, though it made her unable to sleep.

She could not ask them to keep it down. After all, it was visiting hours.

Bianca sighed when she saw the faint smile on Nina's lips.

"Can you get a glass of water for me, Bea? I'm thirsty." Nina blinked.

Bianca stood up, poured a glass of warm water for her, and found a straw." Luckily, Mr. Mallory prepared all these for you. It'd be troublesotherwise."

Nina laughed dryly.

"What's wrong?" Bianca turned to look at her.

She thought of something and continued asking before Nina could reply."

Didn't Mr. Mallory cto visit? Does he know that you're in the hospital?"

Nina shook her head and instantly felt the pain on her forehead. She tried to bear it, but tears welled up in her eyes.

"Don't move..." Bianca sat down next to her and brought the straw to her mouth.

Nina emptied more than half of the glass before saying, "I'm not that close to him, Bea. That's why I didn't tell him."

Bianca sighed again and felt genuinely sorry for Nina.

"Aren't you planning to tell anyone that you're in the hospital? You can't get off the bed, and there's no one to take care of you. That won't do.” "The nurse has arranged a caretaker for me. She should be here soon," Nina explained.

"Are you going to stay here too? Wouldn't you rather stay in a private ward? " Bianca heard the voices of the middle-aged woman in the ward. They were speaking very loudly.

How would Nina get her rest?

"I can't afford it," Nina said helplessly. She did not have much savings, and she did not know her mother's condition. The doctor said that he would have to run a more thorough examination on Anna to find out the reason why she passed out.

She had to save more money for any eventuality.

"The company will pay for your stay in the hospital. Get yourself checked into a better ward," Bianca said.

"That won't do," Nina said hurriedly. After all, it was not a workplace-related injury.

"The company has personal insurance policies for everyone. Don't worry about it," Bianca explained.

Nina stared into her eyes. "Don't lie to me." "Why would I lie to you? I bought the insurance while you were away on vacation. If you don't believe me, I'll get HR to email the policy document to you. Don't worry. Even if there's no insurance, I would gladly do this for you. You're my best friend, Nina, and you've helpedso much over the past few years. It's my duty to help you when you're in need, so don't be a stranger to me, alright? We ought to help each other." Bianca said as she tucked her into the blanket.
