Chapter 217 Mr. Crawford Continues to Hoodwink Bianca...

Bianca put the keys away, changed into slippers, tiptoed into the bedroom, and found two blankets.

She draped one over Lanie's body and the other over Rainie, who was sleeping soundly on Daddy's tummy...

Bianca was about to walk away when the man on the couch suddenly opened his bloodshot eyes.

His eyes looked tired under the angular brow ridge. Blood vessels could be seen at the corners of his eyes.

On other days, she would tell her not to work so hard and rest more, out of concern as his employee or as the father of her children.

However, Bianca was speechless.

Every word that Jason said over the phone lingered in Bianca's mind.

"Boss received a dinner invitation after he got back yesterday. He left the two children in the apartment, and no one was around to take care of them...

"Boss drank a little too much last night, and we haven't managed to contact him at the hotel..."

Luke was wholly unqualified as a single parent.

After Luke woke up, Rainie also woke up. After Rainie woke up, Lanie woke up too.

Lanie rubbed his eyes. When he saw that Rainie was there, he hugged her thigh and said pitifully, "Why are you here, Miss Bea?"

His voice sounded very nasal, perhaps because he had just woken up.

When Bianca heard that, tears welled up in her eyes. She crouched down and touched her son's face." Where did you bring your sister yesterday? You know that we're all worried about you, right?"

'Yesterday, Daddy, Rainie, and I were napping in the house. In the morning, Daddy went to the grocery store and tried to cook breakfast. Even though Daddy looked gloo and his fried eggs were inedible, Rainie and I are very happy that he's willing to learn,' Lanie thought.

However, when Daddy came back home, busy from work, he told Lanie and Rainie in a stern tone that they needed to tell a lie if they wanted Miss Bea to be their mother and live with them forever.
