Chapter 968 Are You Going On a Date?
Anna's face turned beet-red when she heard Nina's words, and she became more agitated. She couldnot bear to hear anyone talking bad about her favorite son after he went to prison.
She tried to claw Nina's face, "What are you saying, you miserable wretch?
He is your brother. I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of your ancestors."
Nina dodged the attack while tears slid down her face. "If my ancestors knew what Jean did, they'dteach him a lesson first."
Jean had to go to prison for what he had done, but Nina had to clean up the mess that he left.
Nina had suffered for the past few years, and she could no longer pretend that she was fine about it.
Seeing that the situation was uncontrollable, Bianca told her assistant, "Get security."
When Anna heard that, she stopped attacking Nina and glared at Bianca." How dare you!" "You are inan office now, Mrs. Langdon. You are causing a disturbance to our work. I’m only calling the securityand not the police because you are Nina’s mother. If you continue to disturb us, I will call the police,”Bianca warned the woman while shielding Nina behind her.
Anna would have complied if she was reasonable. Unfortunately, there was no use reasoning with her.
Even though Bianca was not part of the Langdon family, she was nonetheless disheartened by Anna'sattitude toward Nina. She felt sorry for Nina, and at the same time understood that Jean's personalitywas largely shaped by Anna's doting.
"Very well." Anna pointed at Nina's nose. "Do you think that you're fine if someone is protecting you?Even if they throw me out of the building, I'll sit there and tell every passer-by how cruel you are to me!"
She only wanted money and nothing else.novelbin
Nina was angered by the threat. She wiped away her tears and pointed at the door. "Suit yourself. Youcan tell everyone the entire story and let them know how warped you are. Go now!"
The security guards happened to hear that when they came over. They instantly identified thetroublemaker and grabbed her by her arms. "Sorry, Ms. Rayne. This is our oversight," they saidcourteously.
Anna continued to struggle and kick even though her arms were restrained. One of her shoes flew offher foot. ' Nina, you heartless wretch, is that how you treat your mother?"
Nina closed her eyes in shame. The most fragile part of her personality had been exposed. "Take heraway."
The security guards began to carry Anna out.
"You wretch, you ingrate, I won’t..."
Anna's curses abruptly stopped, and she passed out.
The security guards were shocked. They instantly put her on the floor and looked at each other. "It's...it's not our fault. We didn't do anything to her. She passed out by herself."
Bianca stepped forward to take a closer look. Anna was perspiring hard, and her face was deathly pale.She did not look like she was faking it. After detecting her pulse, Bianca turned her head around andtold Nina, "Call the ambulance, Nina."
Nina was flustered when she saw her mother pass out. She came to her senses and quickly dialed foremergency services.
After a brief moment of chaos, the ambulance brought Anna to the hospital while Nina followed along.
Sue sighed and said, "Poor Nina."
With a family like that, no wonder she had to rely on Percy. Sue wondered how many more secrets didNina's fragile little frame bore.
Bianca turned around to address the employees, "Let's get back to work.
Also, that is the end of that incident. No one shall talk about it in the company."
She knew that Nina had tried to keep her family matters out of work.
"Yes," Shireen was the first to reply.
"Let's continue our meeting,” Bianca told Sue and Shireen.
"Alright.” Sue nodded. She shot a glance at Shireen and went to Bianca's office.
In the late afternoon, Bianca received a call from Nina. While in the hospital, Anna had slapped Nina,which caused her to knock on the wall and pass out. She had only regained consciousness not longago.
Bianca instantly gave a call to Luke and told him about what happened to Nina. Then, she asked him ifhe could pick up the children from school.
Luke replied, "I'll go to the hospital with you. The driver will pick up Lanie and Rainie." "Alright." Biancathought that it would be a good idea for Luke to come along with her, so she waited for him in the office.
Sue also wanted to visit Nina in the hospital, but the babysitter called her to say that Teri had fallensick. She had to go home and take care of her daughter.
Half an hour later, Luke's car arrived downstairs.
Bianca hastily sat on the side passenger seat. Seeing that he was about to drive the car to the hospital,she said, "Should we drop by Nina's house? I'd like to pack some clothes and toiletries for her."
Nina sounded weak over the phone. She had to be hospitalized for a few days, and she would needthose items for her daily use.
"Percy will prepare that for her," Luke reminded her.
Bianca frowned, thinking that Percy would not be so meticulous.
"You can also buy those things at the convenience store at the hospital. If she really needs anything,you can buy it for her at the supermarket downstairs," Luke said.
As far as he knew, Nina was staying in Percy's mansion. The mansion and the hospital were onopposite sides of the city, and it would be nighttime by the time they reached the hospital if they went tothe mansion first.
"Alright." Bianca nodded.
Her phone started ringing; it was from the driver. "Hello?" "Madam, Lanie and Rainie want to talk toyou," the driver handed his phone to the children in the back seat. He had just picked them up fromschool.
Rainie took the phone and switched it to hands-free mode. "Mommy, are you with Daddy?" "Mm, yes.We have something to do now. Can you two go home first?" Bianca said gently.
"Are you going on a date?" Rainie asked.
Bianca was startled by the question. No. Aunt Nina is hurt, and we're visiting her at the hospital. Right,you should listen to Mrs. Solano when you get back home. Finish your homework, eat your dinner, andtake care of Tommy for us, alright?" "Yes, Mommy. Please come back soon after you and Daddy visitAunt Nina, " Rainie said.
"Alright, see you later." Bianca ended the call, put the phone in her handbag, and looked at Luke whowas driving. "The children are so mature."
She remembered that the twins were already precocious when she first met them. They did not acttheir age at all.
Back then, she wondered if children from single-parent families mature faster.
"Louis spends a lot of time with them when they're younger," Luke said, though he did not soundaccusatory.
He educated his children differently, and he was confident that Louis would not be a bad influence onthe children.
That was why he did not stop Louis from teaching the children "bad things."
