Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle -
Chapter 80 Bea’s Going To Get Married
After recovering from the violent coughs, Kevin said, "Can you apply for leave these two days... Tovisit Luojiazhen? Your grandfather is in the old house, and Marie's mom might also be goingthere...”
"Grandpa?" Bianca was surprised.
“Didn't Grandpa go to Japan with Dad's sister? When did he come back?’
Kevin held his daughter's hand because he was worried that she would get angry. He coughed andtold her everything weakly. After he told her everything, the doctor came in just in time.
The doctor was there to do the daily monitoring and examination.
"Dad, I have to go first,” Bianca said.
Kevin nodded.
She was lost in her thoughts as she tried to digest what her dad told her about Grandpa. She walkedout of the hospital.
In the ward, Kevin stretched one arm over to let the doctor draw his blood while his other picked uphis ringing cell phone.
"Hello, this is Kevin.” Kevin was focused on the needle sticking into his arm and did not see who wascalling before he picked up.
Allison's voice sounded as if she had not drunk water in days. "What's your daughter's name?""Why are you asking?" Kevin's tone changed.
When she asked about that, Kevin got mad when he realized the rude person on the line wasAllison!
When the child was growing up, she who was the mother had never asked what the child's namewas!
"Stop the nonsense and just tell me!" Allison yelled like a madwoman.
"Bianca Rayne. Her first name is Bianca, meaning white because I wanted my daughter to grow uppure, white, and clean, unlike you! You dirty and filthy woman!" After Kevin scolded her, he gaspedfor a few seconds to regain his breath. "Go ahead, tell me what you're planning this time?!"
At the Crawford Manor.
The phone in Allison's hand slipped from her hand because her fingers had suddenly become weak.The phone fell onto the ground.
“Bianca.’
Kevin said that his daughter's name was Bianca.
Was all of this part of Bianca's plan to take revenge against her mother?
“Was her visit premeditated?’
Allison laughed mockingly. “Bianca, you're just 24 years old, but it seems that your pure face isn'thow you are inside! It seems that you've played us both!"
Luke only got up in the morning when he received a call from Bianca.
"I'm sorry, I promised to go over and make breakfast for you guys, but it seems like I'm caught in abit of a hurry. I won't be able to make it. Can you tell Lanie and Rainie for me?" After Bianca saidthat, she hung up the phone.
The head of the design department had not arrived at the office yet, so Bianca had to make a callabout her leave.
She thought about Grandpa who she had not seen for more than five years. Her hands trembled asher tears flowed out without warning. An old man in his 70s and in poor health was living alone in asmall town.
Grandpa had raised her since she was a baby.
Grandpa was the closest person to her, even more so than her dad.
On the way back to the rental house, she made several phone calls in the taxi to apply for her leave.She told her head of department the reason as well as made sure her team leader, Sue, knew aboutit too. Lastly, she told Nina that she would not be back that night and that she would be away for afew days.
When Luke tried to call Bianca, her line was busy.
Bianca bought a high-speed rail ticket on her mobile phone and chose the express ticket.
She quickly packed up a few clothes and daily necessities before going out in a hurry.
A few years ago, her aunt took Grandpa to stay with her because he did not want to stay with hisson. It was because it was hard to get along with Jennifer, his daughter-in-law. The old man wasworried that if he lived with a daughter-in-law like her, he might not be able to live a long life.However, her aunt who was in a good marriage was suddenly abandoned by her husband and hadto leave Japan.
The old man who was being taken care of by his son-in-law suddenly had nowhere to go. The son-in-law did one last thing for him and got someone to send the old man back to China.
Bianca was a little mad at her dad about this matter.
“Why should Grandpa live in the old broken house in the small town? How bad is it that you can'ttrouble Jennifer and Marie to take Grandpa to A City to live with us?’
She embarked on the high-speed rail back to Luojiazhen in a hurry.
The train station was sketchy and had a lot of thieves. Bianca had to make sure she was attentivelyprotecting her little luggage.
After she got into the coach safely, Bianca took out her notebook and started working. She put herearphones on so that she was not distracted by the outside noises.
After she got busy for a while, she suddenly felt hungry. She took out a sandwich from her bag thatshe had prepared beforehand.
She got on the train at 9:20 o'clock and finally arrived in Luojiazhen at 11 o'clock. After she packedher stuff up, Bianca took her luggage and computer bag before leaving the station.
The station had not changed much. When she tried to recall, she could still remember hersurroundings. It made her feel nostalgic.
As she looked at the small town where she was born and raised, somehow, the tears welled up inher eyes.
"Taxi! Five bucks per person!" The dark-skinned uncle hollered at the people leaving the station.Bianca got into a taxi.
There were four people in the taxi and each of them paid five yuan.
In ten minutes, Bianca arrived at the entrance of the old house.
The two-story building was very dilapidated.
Bianca took a deep breath, stepped on the weeds growing from the cracks between the old brickson the ground, and dragged her luggage in.
She pushed open the iron gate and saw the red-bricked front yard. The weeds in the yard were notvery high, and there were traces of them having been cut. As she continued inside, a cloud ofchoking smoke filled her nostrils.
As she walked into the house, she saw Grandpa's hunched back.
The old man coughed non-stop, and his old eyes were red from the smoke coming out of the stovepit. His tears flowed down his cheeks. There was a bow! of rice and a bow! of leftover vegetables inthe black pot.
It seemed that the leftover bowl of vegetables had been reheated a lot of times because there wasbarely any oil left in the vegetable soup.
Bianca walked over. The sticks in the stove pit were crackling from the fire. She quickly reached outand hugged Grandpa. She cried, "Grandpa..."
With a fire stick in his skinny hand, the old man raised his head and glanced at Bianca.
"You are..."
"Grandpa, don't you recognize me? It's me, Bea."
Bianca wiped her tears like a little child and took out a piece of tissue from her bag. She carefullywiped Grandpa's dirty face as she cried and complained. "Why didn't you contact me when youcame back? If Dad can't travel, you still have me, your granddaughter..."
"Bea? Is it really you? Your dad told me that you're going to get married. I didn't want to be a dragand trouble your husband's family.” The old man was thinking of his granddaughter. His old eyesstared at his granddaughter as he reached out to stroke her head. “Ah, my little granddaughter isstill a good kid.’
Since he could not see clearly, the old man did not recognize his granddaughter who had grown alot.
"You're not a drag and it won't be any trouble.” At that time, someone's deep and powerful voicecame from the door.
Bianca thought she had hallucinated the voice. She turned her head that was soaked with tears.The man looked as if he had fallen from the sky. As she followed the direction of the light, she alsosaw a black Range Rover parked outside the door.
She was too hurt about her grandpa and did not notice the noise of other cars.
Big cars usually drove from day to night in the town, so she got used to the noise.
The man in the suit and leather shoes stepped forward through the old and dilapidated door frame.Since the door frames in small towns were built low, his unusually tall height was always particularlyeye-catching wherever he went.
When both of their eyes met, Luke's dark and deep eyes looked serene. It was a type of serenenessthat contained a sense of anger. He seemed to be angry at her for coming here alone and notletting him be the first one to know about her troubles.
