Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 997

Chapter 997 His Thoughts Were Aligned With Bianca's

Susan was not convinced. Allison's skin was good, but it could not be attained from just getting enough sleep. She mockingly said, "What a joke! You spent God knows how much on your face. Just admit it if you’re old, there's no need to spend a lot of money to try to maintain your aging face. Fortunately, Luke still has money. Otherwise, your face would be rotten now!"

Allison sneered and said, "Susan, you're jealous that I'm better-looking and younger than you!"

Bianca saw that the two were quarreling again and glanced at Luke. His expression was neutral and he did not seem to plan to do anything.

She thought that it was not appropriate for them to quarrel in front of the children, especially since they were back for the first tin a while. When she wanted to say something to ease the tension, Old Master Crawford's majestic voice sounded. "Both your ages combined add up to 100 years old. Enough with the fighting!"

Susan and Allison looked at the old man. Even though they were still furious and wanted to continue tearing each other apart, they both stepped down.

The battle finally cto an end.

Bianca and Luke looked at Old Master Crawford, greeting him.

Old Master Crawford nodded in response. Seeing that he looked tired, Luke asked, "Grandpa, why do you look so tired?" "It's nothing. I'm getting old and just need srest," Old Master Crawford replied. He sat on the sofa and instructed the caretaker, "Go get the chessboard, I want to play a gwith Luke."

Bianca glanced at the staircase. Lanie, Rainie, and Tommy had not cdown. They were probably playing upstairs, which was a great thing seeing as what had just happened.

"Okay, Old Master." The caretaker went to prepare the chessboard.

Luke took Bianca's hand and sat on the other end of the sofa.

Allison looked at them and wondered why they were here.

She was out of money and planned to steal Old Master Crawford's antiques. She chose this day to cback to the manor and had even asked the caretaker to clean up her room so that she could spend a night here. She would say that her villa was experiencing a power outage. She was back to be Jon's backup.

She did not expect that Luke would be back.

More people meant more trouble.

As she watched Luke play chess with Old Master Crawford, Allison was thinking about whether she should put a stop to her plans.

However, if she did, she would not have any excuse to spend the night. Since she moved out, she had barely cback to spend the night. If she cback too frequently, it would arouse suspicion from others.

Susan was the one to look out for. If she lost something, she would blAllison at once.

Allison thought that the living expenses Luke gave her would not last her that much longer, so she made up her mind to go forward with her plan!

After Luke played a gof chess with Old Master Crawford, Louis returned with Thea.

Seeing his eldest brother and sister-in-law, he was very happy and said," Big Brother, Sister-in-law, you're back!" "Louis, good to see you!" Luke stopped playing chess and responded to Louis.

Thea always acted polite in front of Louis. She greeted the people present," Hello, Great Grandpa Crawford, Grandma Susan, Grandma Allison, Uncle Luke, and Aunt Bianca." "Thea, you're such a good girl. Cto Grandma. I've prepared chocolates for you." Susan was overjoyed to see her granddaughter. She beckoned toward her and Thea walked over.

Louis put Thea's school bag aside and said helplessly, "Mom, Thea has tooth decay. Don't give her so many sweets." "One or two is okay." Susan coddled Thea. She tore open the packaging and stuffed it into Thea's mouth. "Do you like it?" "Grandma, it's delicious," Thea said with a sweet smile while clapping her hands happily.

Allison sneered. "Louis is right. It's not good for children to eat so many sweets. You should take better care of your granddaughter instead of spoiling her blindly. She'll grow fat if this continues."

Thea did not understand the meaning of her words and looked at Susan, asking, "What does fat mean?"

Susan stared at her coldly and replied, "Why do you care? Thea is growing up and there's nothing wrong with eating sweets. Who are you to say anything? You didn't buy it with your money."

Allison wanted to refute but Old Master Crawford was watching them closely, so she decided to keep quiet.

She started the fight and knew that Old Master Crawford might reprimand her. She played with her delicate nails as though she did not hear what Susan said.

Louis sensed that the atmosphere was off and waved to Thea. "Thea, it's tto go upstairs."

Thea nodded and walked over.

Bianca stood up, squatted in front of Thea, and touched her head. "Thea, you've grown a lot taller. You’re getting cuter by the day."

Due to Yuri's influence, Thea was not a fan of Bianca but she was happy when praised. The corners of her mouth lifted into a smile, making her look adorable.

Bianca was secretly figuring out Thea's size. She had not forgotten the matter she discussed with Luke previously.

Luke and Old Master Crawford continued to play chess. Bianca stood up, sat beside him, and watched them play.

Although she was an amateur, Old Master Rayne had taught her the basics and the rules. Hence, she was not lost when she watched them play.

After playing two rounds of chess, dinner was ready. The family had a meal in the dining room.

After dinner, Luke took Bianca and the children for a walk in the manor's garden.

It was summer now and the daytwas getting longer. Bianca watched the sunset, then looked at the children playing around. Her gaze ultimately shifted to Luke, who was standing by her side and enjoying this rare moment of tranquility.

Luke walked with her for a while, and they sat down when they got to the pavilion.

Bianca took out her phone and wrote down a few numbers.

"What's this?" Luke asked.

"This is Thea's size. I want to write it down so I won't forget it later," Bianca said, "I think I got the size right. If you have time, please give them a call and place an order." "Okay." Luke took out his phone and took a photo of the sizes she noted down. "It's still early in the States, so I'll call them later." "Okay." Bianca put her phone away and leaned on his shoulder. She watched the children play with each other.

To make the kids happy, Old Master Crawford had built a small playground in the back garden.

Watching Blanche guarding his younger siblings, Bianca felt warm in her heart as she said, "Luke, today is such a good day." "Yeah." Luke had put aside his work and was spending twith them. Family tcould always put him at ease.

He said, "When Blanche grows up and takes over the company, I’ll also build a garden like this. There must be a pavilion and a swing set, as well as a playground. When they cback with their children, we'll sit in the pavilion and watch our grandchildren play."

Luke was planning for their future, and his thoughts were aligned with Bianca's.
