Chapter 166 A Good Husband
Xavier did not reject his mother.
He really did need a chance to resolve the conflict with his dad.
Compared with his father, Xavier thought that he needed to be the bigger person and step down.
The truth was that his father had never gotten angry with him as an unfilial son for long. Every time it
happened, he was only angry on the surface, but in less than ten minutes, he would soften up.
His promise to accompany his parents to watch a play or movie happened more than five years ago
when he was in prison.
At that time, when his parents visited him at the prison, he was always brought out by the prison guards
while dressed in his prison clothes and in handcuffs.
After sitting down, Xavier saw that his parents looked as if they had aged a decade. He stammered and
opened his mouth, but no words came out.
He never spoke much with his parents.
At that time, he heard his mother cry across the thick glass. She said, "Son, don't be sad while you're
inside... In the future, be a better person and don't break the law willfully anymore. Mom and Dad still
love you. When you're released, heed our advice. Get married and have children. Our family will be
reunited, and we'll live peacefully and have a good life..."
His mother said a lot that day. It was mixed with crying, so he could only understand her vaguely.
However, he clearly remembered that his mother said, "If you ever feel sorry for your father and me,
then you can make it up to US after you're released... We don't need you to have any great
achievements, just accompany US to the movies or play. We'd be content..."
When Xavier listened to those words back then, he was motionless like a person without emotions or
soul outside. However, he was surprised that his parents' expectations for him were so low.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt turned out being filial to his parents was as simple as that. All he needed to do was accompany them
to a play or a movie.
For such a simple thing, he had never done it for his parents in the 20 years before he went to prison.
Today, Xavier drove on the street and was a free man out of prison.
When his mother called and told him that she had bought three tickets for the play, it reminded him of
the scene five years ago.
His memories slowly reminded him that it was time for him to fulfill his promise.
When she went to the hospital to visit Grandpa, Bianca did not let Luke and his children enter the ward.
After all, she told Grandpa that they were not a good fit. If they appeared together again so quickly after
that, she would not know what to say.
After serving lunch to Grandpa, Bianca left first because she had something else to do.
Before she left, she picked up her laptop that she left in the hospital after getting off work yesterday.
In case Sue had a task for her, it would be more convenient if she had her laptop with her.
After lunch, Grandpa strolled around the ward and waved at Bianca, signaling that she should go about
her business.
When Bianca walked out of the hospital, she saw the black Range Rover parked in front of the hospital.
When she walked to the car, Luke, who had been smoking a cigarette from somewhere, also came
over. The man took her laptop with one hand and opened the car door with the other to let her get in
the car.
’What should we eat?" Before she could thank him, the man asked.
Bianca looked back at him. "Let Lanie and Rainie decide."
Luke nodded without commenting and immersed himself in the role of a good husband.
No matter what, he would let the children and the children's mother have the final say.
After getting in the car, Luke was only responsible for driving.
Bianca searched for a lot of restaurants on her phone and let Lanie and Rainie pick from the back seat.
Lanie put down the game console in his hand, put it aside, and took Aunt Bea's phone to decide with
his sister.
With one eye open, his sister looked at the phone screen. Her thick and dark eyelashes flickered.
"Have you chosen?" Bianca turned around and asked them.
Lanie stared at the phone screen and was having difficulty deciding. "Not yet." "Take your time. We're
not in a hurry." Bianca thought that since she had already applied for leave for that day, she should just
spend the whole day focusing on the two children.
Just when Lanie and Rainie were deciding, two text messages appeared on Bianca’s phone screen.
Nina's first text said, 'My mom came to the office and I just sent her away five minutes ago. Good thing
you didn't come to the office. Otherwise, she would've pulled you into it. My mom's too terrifying. This
old lady thinks that everything is someone else's fault and never reflected."
In the second message, Nina typed and said, 'My mom consulted a lawyer. Apparently, my brother may
have to be sentenced for more than a year. Sigh.
'Why is it that I don't feel sad or angry after hearing it? Instead, I feel like having a burrito. Am I not a
sensible person, Bea? I know that my brother has gone astray. If he doesn't get sentenced to prison
and reform himself for a few years, he won't understand how big a mistake he has made.’
Lanie and Rainie did not know what the context from Nina's text was, but they noticed the word
burrito...
From the sound of it, it sounded delicious.
Lanie raised his head and asked Bianca in the passenger seat, "Aunt Bea, what's a burrito?" 'A
burrito?’
There were a bunch of question marks in Bianca's head. She turned around and took her cell phone.
When she looked down, all the restaurants she searched for were high-end ones. There should not be
a burrito selection inside...
After all, the children's father was dining with them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPeople like Luke were only suited to dine in high-end restaurants.
At that moment, Nina sent a third text message. Bianca happened to see it and clicked in to see the
first two text messages.
It was then when she understood why the two little kids asked for burritos.
"Have you guys tried... Burritos before?" Bianca probably knew the answer already, but she just wanted
to confirm it.
The two little kids said, "No, we've never tried it.”
If Lanie and Rainie had not grown up with Luke but with her instead, it would be a much different story.
The gap between rich people and common people was much too big.
The two little kids in the back seat of the car expressed their desire to eat burritos, but Bianca had to
ask the children's father first.
Bianca thought that burritos were delicious, but a man like Luke might think of it as junk food-
Unhygienic and unhealthy.
Since she did not want to argue with him in front of the children, Bianca thought about it and
remembered that she could text Luke.
The last time when they were together, they texted a lot.
Bianca typed a message and sent it to the man driving.
'They want to eat burritos. Is it okay?'
After sending it, Bianca waited for him to reply.
Luke was focused on driving.
Bianca waited for two minutes and could not help but remind him with a guilty conscience. "I think I
heard a text message from your phone.”
Luke did not hear the notification but picked up his phone and clicked on it.
It only took him a few seconds to see the message. Luke chuckled, typed, and sent, 'Whatever you
want.'
