Chapter 1326 She Meant Nothing To The Crawford Family


    "Who''s your friend?” Lanie was on high alert. Bianca had never been so enthusiastic toward them and


    had never taken any one of them out alone, so Lanie thought that she was acting particrly strange.


    Bianca''s eyes shed with impatience when faced with his endless questions. She did not put too


    much thought into it and continued to coax them. "You don''t know her, she''s a new friend. Her daughter


    wants to learn ballet and she heard that Rainie is great at it. My friend wants to treat us to a meal so


    Rainie can give her daughter some tips on ballet."


    Lanie was still suspicious and was not fooled by her words. When he was thinking about stepping in to


    help Rainie turn her down, Rainie said, "Okay, but I have to finish my homework first. Can you get out


    and give me some time?"


    Bianca smiled brightly when Rainie agreed to her request. She stopped disturbing them so they could


    leave earlier." Okay, do your homework."


    After Bianca left, Lanie closed the bedroom door, looked at Rainie, and asked, "Why did you agree? I


    feel—"


    He stopped halfway because Tommy was still there.


    Rainie knew what he was worried about. She smiled and said, "I know, Lanie, but if I follow her, maybe


    I''ll find out something. We can''t do nothing and keep waiting."


    Lanie’s brows furrowed deeply when he heard her reply. Rainie was timid and would cry if something


    happened. However, their fake mother did not intend to bring him along.


    He kept Bianca''s words close to his heart. He had to protect his younger siblings. "No, I can''t let you go


    alone."


    "Lanie, if something happens, you can stay here and tell Great-grandpa. Maybe she''s just taking me to


    dinner. Don''t be nervous." Rainie smiled and calmed him down.


    She had always been the little princess protected by the family, but since she found out that their


    mother had nevere back and was instead reced by an identical-looking woman, she wanted to


    do something to get their mother back.


    However, she had not found a chance to tell Luke about it.


    "Lanie, Rainie, what are you talking about? Why don''t I understand you?" Tommy stopped working on


    his homework and looked at both of them suspiciously.


    "Nothing," Lanie and Rainie said unanimously.


    Rainie picked up her pen and continued to work on her homework. She stood up after she was done.


    Lanie took her hand and ced the phone that Luke had prepared for them. "If anything happens, call


    me."


    "I will," Rainie smiled, held the phone, and went back to her bedroom. She changed into a dress,


    carried her little backpack, and walked to the master bedroom to look for Bianca. "Mom, I''m ready."


    When Bianca heard what Rainie said, she reached out and held her hand. "That’s great. I''ve already


    told my friend. Let''s go."


    Rainie thought that her hand was very cold. She nodded and silently withdrew her hand.


    Bianca looked at her and asked, "What''s wrong?"


    "Mom, your hand is too cold," Rainie said as she walked out of the master bedroom.


    The expression on Bianca''s face was frozen. ''My hand is too cold? Isn''t the hand of their biological


    mother cold too?’


    She wanted to get to know the real Bianca but things were strict on the Ind of Despair. She had no


    connections or ways to find out who she was.


    Rainie sensed that Bianca was not following her and just as she turned around, the fury on Bianca''s


    face disappeared. Rainie acted kind and said, "Mom, are youing?"


    "I’ming." Bianca stepped forward and went downstairs with her.


    Dinner was almost ready in Crawford Manor. Old Master Crawford saw Bianca and Rainieing


    downstairs. They were dressed up as though they were going out. He asked," Rainie, dinner is almost


    ready. Where are you going?"


    Rainie replied obediently, "Mom told me that her friend wants to ask me about ballet so she''s bringing


    me out."


    When Old Master Crawford heard Rainie’s reply, he thought that it was not a big deal. Since they were


    about to have dinner and he did not want Rainie to starve, he said, "Go after dinner. I don''t want you to


    be hungry."


    Bianca put her hand on Rainie''s shoulder and exined with a smile, "Grandpa, we’re going to have


    dinner with my friend. It won’t take too long for us to get there. Rainie won''t be hungry."


    Old Master Crawford nced at her and said, "Why didn''t you set an earlier time? Dr. Cairn mentioned


    that Rainie''s stomach is sensitive and she should never starve.


    Otherwise, it would be easy for her to get stomach problems. Don’t you think that you’ve failed as her


    mother?"


    Anger surged through Bianca when she heard Old Master Crawford''s usations. She wanted to


    leave early but


    Rainie was doing homework. The three children were smart. Lanie might not react well if she forcibly


    took Rainie away.


    Lanie arrived downstairs, took a look at the time, and said," Rainie''s stomach is indeed sensitive. Why


    not have some food before going or meet your friend another day?"


    He really did not want Rainie to go out with Bianca alone.


    Bianca grabbed two packets of biscuits from the table and stuffed them into Rainie''s hand. "You won''t


    feel hungry if you have some biscuits. I’ve already confirmed with my friend that we’re going. It won’t be


    appropriate if we cancel at thest minute."


    "What''s the big deal? You can starve and go by yourself.


    Rainie, go to the dining room for dinner." Old Master


    Crawford thought Bianca was messing around. On top of that, he had not met any of her friends.


    Since Bianca got amnesia, her female friends that the family knew about had beenpletely


    alienated by her. Old Master Crawford did not care that she was out every day to meet her new friends.


    Rainie nced at Lanie, then at Old Master Crawford. She said, "Great-grandpa, I won''t starve if I eat


    some biscuits. Since Mom has confirmed our attendance, I’ll go just this once."


    Old Master Crawford shook his head helplessly when he heard what Rainie said. He felt even more


    dissatisfied with Bianca.


    He had watched them grow up since they were small kids and knew their personalities well. Rainie did


    not like to meet with strangers.


    He thought that Rainie was acting sensibly because she did not want Bianca to feel embarrassed.


    "This can never happen again." Old Master Crawford stepped forward, touched her nose with his index


    finger, and said, "Take more biscuits with you. Don''t starve."


    "Okay, Great-grandpa." Rainie picked up more biscuits.


    After Bianca and Rainie left the living room, Bianca could no longer hold her temper. In just a day, Old


    Master Crawford had embarrassed her twice!


    To Old Master Crawford, she meant nothing to the Crawford family and was not even allowed to go out


    with Rainie without being questioned!Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org.
