Chapter 299 Lanie Gave Daddy A Thumbs-Up!
Bianca was not able to meet Nina. She was not relieved.
However, she was helpless against Anna. Anna bore a deep-seated grudge against Bianca, and therewas no way she was reasonable enough to listen to Bianca. However, Anna was nevertheless Nina'smother, and she could not do anything to her.
Bianca thought of Sue.
If Sue went to visit Nina, Anna would have no excuse to drive her daughter's colleague away, asunreasonable as she might be.
Bianca gave a call to Sue, tactfully saying that Nina had fallen sick.
Bianca also explained that Nina's mother bore a grudge against her, and it was not convenient for herto go and visit, which was why she asked Sue to visit Nina on her behalf.
She did not tell Sue about what actually happened to Nina. After all, no woman would want otherpeople to know that they were abducted and violated.
Sue agreed to it immediately and promised that she would visit Nina after work. She also asked Biancato send her Nina's address.
Bianca was physically and mentally tired when she arrived at her apartment.
She changed into her slippers, went into the bathroom, and took a hot water shower. Her neck stungwhen the hot water splashed on the scratches. She did not treat her injuries, thinking that thosescratches were nothing compared to what Nina went through.
Bianca slowly closed her eyes...
It was all Xavier's fault!
She did not know why he was so obsessed with her. Not only had he harmed her, but he had alsoharmed her best friend. That was unforgivable, even if she killed him with her own hands.
A storm was brewing in Crawford Manor.
When Luke came back with the two children, he saw Old Master Crawford sitting in the living room,holding his walking stick, and with a gloomy expression on his face.
As usual, his mother Allison wore impeccable make-up, inadvertently flaunting a new pair of crystalbracelets to Susan.
Susan's already unpleasant expression was filled with envy and resentment.
Louis was sitting seriously on the couch, a far cry from his usual carefree attitude.
He shot a glance at Luke when the latter stepped in through the door, as though saying, "Bad news,Luke! Grandpa knows about the scandalous post on Xeddit. Careful of his anger!"
Luke ignored his brother's sign and patted the two children's heads.
The two children happily ran toward their great-grandfather and greeted him, which made Old MasterCrawford instantly delighted. He nearly forgot that he was going to interrogate his eldest grandson.
Susan snorted and started to speak sarcastically, "You've finally decided to come back! Everyone onthe Internet knows that Young Master Crawford has beat up his cousin and claimed his cousin-in-law!As the saying goes, like mother, like son. The Crawford family reputation is in ruins now. Shouldn't yousay something about this, Father?"
Allison was unhappy when she heard that. She frowned and said, "Can you believe that nonsense youread on the Internet, Susan? Everyone knows how outstanding my son is and how much he hascontributed to the family. Why would he flirt with another woman? It's that shameless Bianca Raynethat's pestering my Luke!" "Your son is involved in a major scandal, Allison Tanner. Not only you're notreflecting upon your failed education, but you're still making excuses. Aren't you shameless? Of courseyou are, and your son is just as shameless as you!" "Of course. My son isn't as delicate as your son.Who could be a better decadent than your son? I'm not exaggerating if I say that Second Young MasterCrawford would poke anything that moves. He sleeps with a different woman every night, and he willeventually die on the bed of another woman," Allison retorted mercilessly.
Susan, being born in a wealthy family, was no match for Allison when it came to hurling insults!
She shook with anger and wondered how Zachary had his eye on such an uncultured woman.
She was secretly delighted that Allison had revealed her vulgar side!
Louis was speechless.
He was only sitting there not doing anything, but he was not spared anyway.
Old Master Crawford had a headache when he saw his two daughters-in- law arguing with each other.He wanted to drive them away from the household.
He slammed one end of his walking stick on the floor and assumed an authoritative air. "That's enough!If you want to argue, go outside!"
Susan and Allison immediately shut up when they saw that Old Master Crawford was angry. However,the hidden resentment in their eyes was palpable.
When Luke calmly sat down on the couch, Old Master Crawford did not beat around the bush andinstead started his interrogation. "Luke, are the rumors on the Internet about you, Bianca, and Xaviertrue? Is it true that Bianca and Xavier are a couple, but you interfered and snatched the woman?"
Allison was discontented. She spoke up for her son. "How could that be, Father? Luke's qualificationsare so much better than Xavier's. Why would he need to ruin their marriage? Moreover, you can tellthat Bianca is a loose woman. She's born and raised in an insignificant family, and she'sembarrassingly petty. She must be the one who tried to flirt with Luke.
Allison stole a glance at his son. Luke was mature and dependable, and many daughters of wealthyfamilies dreamed of marrying him. Even Leia Norman, the daughter of the Provincial CommitteeSecretary, was smitten with him. That showed how attractive her son was.
No matter what happened, Allison would not allow the lowly Bianca to claim her son's heart.
"Hah! Are you talking about yourself? I wonder if you've forgotten about how lowly you were back then.How dare you criticize other people?" Susan mocked.
Allison gritted her teeth in anger. "Are you purposely picking on me, Susan Armstrong?” "Bianca is mywoman, mother. I hope that you can treat her with respect!" Luke's expression was gloomy, and thewords that came out of his mouth were like ice.
He did not like other people talking down on Bianca, including his birth mother.novelbin
"You..." Allison was instantly unhappy when her son had rebuked her in front of everyone, especiallySusan. "Don't be deceived by Bianca, son. She's a materialistic and selfish woman who is no match foryou. You deserve a better woman."
Luke raised his head and stared at his mother. His expression was as icy as ever.
Allison sighed and said no more.
Luke turned his head and spoke determinedly toward Old Master Crawford and Allison. "Grandfather,Mother, don't worry. I don't care if you don't know Bianca or if you don't want her in the household, sheis the only woman for me and the only mother of the two children."
Lanie discreetly gave his father a thumbs-up as he looked at Luke with admiration.
'Good job, Daddy! You're not afraid of Great-Grandpa's presence or Grandma's tantrums. You've doneyour best so that we can live together with Mommy!"
