Chapter 770 The Sounds From the Room...
Bianca instantly hung up. She seemed angry as she did so.
Luke gently held her cheeks and kissed her. ' Why are you so angry? You should control youremotions, my wife. It's not worth it to lose your temper over someone else's business."
Bianca nodded and tried to calm herself down, though she could not help but say, "I thought that Mr.Doyle is an assertive man looking at how he is at work, but I didn't expect him to be so unreliable. He'sbeen dragging his feet when it comes to the problem with his ex-wife, and Sue is the one who has tosuffer. Sigh... Sue is unlucky to marry him." "It's up to them to sort it out, and there's only so much thatwe can do for them. If Jason can't remove the biggest obstacle between him and Sue, then he won'tget anything in the end." "Mm. I'll try to contact Sue," Bianca replied, then went through her callrecords.
She received a call from an unknown number earlier in the afternoon, and she guessed that Sue musthave changed her number.
There were few unknown numbers in her call records, and she soon found the number and dialed it.
About ten seconds later, the call was picked up. "Hello?"
The clear yet slightly hoarse voice indeed uniquely belonged to Sue.
Bianca lifted her voice slightly. "Is this your new number, Sue? I can't get through your usual phonenumber. Where are you now? Are you OK? Are Kari and Teri with you?"
Sue sounded both tired and lazy at the same time. "What could possibly happen to me, silly? Whatwere you thinking? Don't worry, my dearest daughters are right next to me, and I'm staying with Nina.
Why did you decide to call me in the middle of the night?" "That's because Mr. Doyle called us to askabout you!" Bianca said exasperatedly. "What's going on between you and Mr. Doyle, Sue? Did his ex
-wife bully you? Why didn't you tell me about it?"
Bianca did not have too many interactions with Bailey, but she knew that the woman was no pushoverbecause of her family. She did whatever she wanted without any regard for morals or the law.
Sue would be at a disadvantage when dealing with Bailey.
Sue smiled. "It's only a minor episode that's not worth mentioning, Bianca. Don't worry, I can handle itmyself. I'm staying over with Nina for the next two days, and we'll move out when we find a new place.I'll give you my new address by then, and we can meet up and chat. It's already getting late, and youshould rest. I'll talk to you another time."
Bianca felt a lot more relieved when she heard that Sue was alright." Alright, Sue. You should rest too.I'll drop by for a visit if I'm free tomorrow. Good night."
In the lavishly furnished bedroom, Sue ended the call, and the fake smile on her face faded away.
Nina saw Sue's pale complexion, then turned her head to see the two cute little girls who were soundlysleeping on the big bed...
Her heart wrenched.
Sue might seem indomitable, but she had a soft heart. Taking care of her twin daughters and having tobe vigilant at all times took a great toll on her over the past two years.
Nina held Sue's cold hands and wanted to speak. "Sue..."
Sue did not say a word. Her hands were trembling as she recalled that day when Bailey tried to snatchher daughters again.
Nina knew what she was thinking and held her hands tighter. "You and the two girls can stay here withme. The security measures here are better than the typical neighborhood. It's a waste for me livingalone in this big house, and I’d love to have some company." "Thank you, Nina. I'll be imposing uponyou for the next few days. We'll move out when we find a suitable place." Sue looked at Nina, and herlips trembled slightly. Her loving gaze fell on the two baby girls.
Nina reached out and hugged Sue. Her heart wrenched when she could not feel the warmth on Sue'sbody. "Don't be silly. We're not strangers. I wish that you'd stay here for longer..."novelbin
She knew how scary that Bailey woman could be.
It would be a disaster if Kari and Teri fell into her hands!
Sue's gaze fell on the luxurious furnishings in the room. "Would it be inconvenient for you if we stayhere?"
Nina lived in a bungalow in the city center, where land prices were astronomical. The house itself wasworth a few million dollars, not to mention the extravagant furnishing and decorations. Sue, as amiddleclass worker, could only dream of living in such a place.
Sue knew that Nina's family conditions were not any special either. She could not have afforded thatplace.
She had heard from Bianca that Nina was currently dating Percy Mallory.
The man was extremely wealthy, and he spared no expense in pampering his women. However, Suecould not help but feel that the luxurious mansion was more like a gilded cage that imprisoned Nina...
Nina's gaze wavered when she heard Sue's question.
Soon, she laughed heartily and patted Sue's shoulder. "Don't worry. My boyfriend gave me thismansion. He said that I can use this place however I want. You, Kari, and Teri can stay here for as longas you want!"
Seeing how carefree Nina was, Sue decided not to think too much about it. She was already tired fromthe day's events, and she soon fell asleep on the bed.
Later in the night.
Kari woke up from a nightmare and complained that she was thirsty.
There was no water in the bedroom. Sue planned to go downstairs to the kitchen to get some drinkingwater for her daughter.
The lavishly decorated corridor was dimly lit. It was quiet all around.
Sue entered the kitchen, but there was no warm water. She could not find the kettle either.
She was a little frustrated that she did not ask Nina for a flask of warm water earlier, even though sheknew that her daughter had the habit of drinking water in the middle of the night.
She wondered if it would be a good idea to trouble Nina now.
Thinking that her daughter would be very disappointed if she did not get her water, Sue decided to goto Nina's bedroom.
At the entrance, when she was about to knock on the door, she could hear a faint woman's voicecoming from within...
