Chapter 1127 You Can Choose to Leave
Bianca stood next to Luke and watched the footage of Tommy sneaking away. She was unhappy aboutwhat she saw. Was Tommy giving her trouble by running away from home at this juncture?
She might be unhappy, but she managed to conceal her emotions. She placed a hand on Luke'sshoulder and showed a worried expression. "What should we do now, Luke?"
Luke had been replaying the security footage. The cameras could only track Tommy until the front gate.Beyond that, Luke did not know where he went.
He was incredibly frustrated. "Well have to find him."
Tommy was still young. Where could a young child possibly go? However, Luke was worried preciselybecause Tommy was a young child. He called Jason on his phone to look for Tommy immediately.
Bianca looked at Luke's gloomy expression. He did not say it, but she could tell that he knew thereason why Tommy ran away.
She began to blame herself. "It's all my fault. Tommy is still so small, I shouldn't have scolded him. He'smy son too..."
Luke was not in the mood to comfort Bianca, who was about to cry. All he could think of was findingTommy.
He stood up and said, "I'll go to the police station."
Bianca was taken aback when she saw him leaving the study. She quickly ran after him, not botheringto wipe away the tears on her face. "I'm going too, Luke." "You stay at home." Luke was worried aboutTommy's whereabouts. He did not want to bring her along.
Bianca could only watch as Luke quickly walked away. She had no way to release her anger.
She had done all she could in two years, but she could not get Luke to accept her.
What else could she do so that Luke would care for her?
If this went on, Luke would only continue to drift apart from her. Even if he did not fall in love withanother woman, he would focus his entire attention on his three children, while she could only be atrophy wife.
She did not want that to happen!
Bianca went downstairs. Old Master Crawford was standing in the middle of the living room andreprimanding the servants of the house.
Tommy managed to sneak away from Crawford Manor because the front gate was not locked. AllTommy had to do was to stand on tiptoe and open the latch.
Bianca did not know what to do when she stood at the staircase and watched Old Master Crawfordbeing so angry.
All she could do was to pretend that she was very worried about her son.novelbin
She tried to squeeze some tears in her eyes, hoping to evoke the old man's pity and show him that shewas also worried about Tommy.
When Old Master Crawford heard her sobbing, he shot a disdainful glance at her and told the servants,"Make sure that you lock the front gate before you go to bed every night!" "Yes, Old Master Crawford!"The butler replied. He felt slightly aggrieved when he remembered that there were two locks on thegate. One of the locks was at the usual position, while the other was slightly higher.
The higher lock had not been locked for more than a year, and no accidents had ever happened.
However, Tommy found his chance to run away precisely because of that!
"You’re dismissed." Old Master Crawford was deathly worried about finding Tommy, but there was nopoint in scolding them excessively. After all, they were no experts in lost child retrieval.
Luke had already dispatched his subordinates to look for Tommy. With the help of the police, theyshould be able to find Tommy in no time.
Seeing the servants scatter to their respective posts, Bianca wiped the tears from her eyes and wentover. ' Don't be angry, Grandpa.” "How can I not be angry?" Old Master Crawford glared at her. Afterknowing that Tommy had run away from home, Rainie had told him what happened the day before.
Luke would not reprimand his children for no reason. Old Master Crawford could guess that it was allbecause of Bianca.
"Grandpa..." Bianca did not expect that Old Master Crawford would be angry at her too.
"Luke reprimanded Tommy last night. You must have told him something, right?" Old Master Crawforddid not beat around the bush.
He did not play favorites among his great-grandchildren, but he paid more attention to Tommy becauseLuke went missing when Tommy was born. Everyone thought that Luke was gone forever.
Tommy's birth had mended a hole in Old Master Crawford's heart. No matter how naughty the little boymight be, Old Master Crawford could not bear to scold him.
"I didn't..." Bianca tried to explain.
Old Master Crawford did not give her the chance. "Bianca, you've lost all your memories, but that'sokay. I still treat you as Luke's wife. You don't remember anything about your children or even think thatTommy and the others aren't your children, but I don't blame you because you didn't ask for that tohappen. Now, as a mature adult, you're tattling on a child. Are you purposely trying to upset him? If youthink that you're not happy staying here, you can choose to leave at any time! Let me say this rightnow. I won't let anyone try to convince you otherwise!"
Old Master Crawford's words were like barbs that pierced Bianca's heart.
When she heard that Old Master Crawford would not try to convince her to stay, her face went pale andshe shook her head. "I didn't mean that, Grandpa. That's not what happened yesterday..."
Old Master Crawford cut her off mid-sentence. "You don't have to explain yourself. I can roughly guesswhat happened yesterday. You've given birth to three children for the Crawford family, yet you don'twant to take care of them. Fine, I'll take care of them on your behalf then!" "I..." Bianca's mind was in amess. She did not expect that old man to say that.
"Don't be angry, Old Master Crawford. Please take care of your health," the butler reminded him whenhe saw that the old man was very agitated.
Bianca was helpless. She did not know what else to say to convince him that Tommy's running awayfrom home was not her fault.
She looked at Old Master Crawford's sullen expression, gritted her teeth, and pretended to faint.
Bianca fell on the floor with a plop. To make sure that her fall was convincing enough, she did not try tobrace herself or cushion her fall.
A wave of pain coursed through her body the moment she struck the floor.
Bianca bore with it. She did not open her eyes.
"Madam!" The butler quickly went over and shook her shoulders.
The woman on the floor gave no response.
Seeing that the woman had fainted at such an opportune time, Old Master Crawford grunted coldly andsaid, "Get the doctor." "Yes!" The butler told the servant, "Give Dr. Park a call." "Don't bother troublingJohann. It's nothing too serious. Just call any doctor over." Old Master Crawford stopped the servantfrom calling Johann.
