Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

Chapter 969 We’re Family

Bianca understood instantly. She was also reminded of Louis's new business venture. Everyone in the Crawford

family objected to it, and Old Master Crawford was even begging him to find employment in T Corporation.

Only Luke and Bianca did not object. After all, that was Louis's decision." How is Louis's studio coming along?" She

asked.

"I've heard that he managed to find enough partners. They're looking for office space now." Luke had been keeping

a close eye on Louis's progress, though he tried not to interfere.

Bianca nodded. She understood that it was not easy for Louis to start his business without any help from the family.

"Then we should help him wherever we can. Speaking of office space, the tenant above my office moved out not

long ago. Do you want to tell Louis that?"

I'll mention it to him tonight." Luke also thought that the location of the office was ideal and the rental was

reasonable. "You're so kind, Bea," he smiled and said.

"Louis is your younger brother, and we're family. Shouldn't we help each other out?" Bianca said.

The Crawfords might occasionally make Bianca's life difficult, but Louis had never done that. He had always treated

Bianca with the respect she deserved.

"You're right," Luke said emotionally. Even though Allison and Susan did not see each other eye to eye, he and Louis

had always been close siblings.

"If you're free, you should try finding out Thea's measurements," he said.

Bianca could instantly guess what he was thinking. "Alright. After I get the measurements, I'll contact the tailor. I

wouldn't want his daughter to lose faith in him."

They guessed that Louis would be too busy with his new venture and forget about his promise to his daughter. Also,

they did not mention how Thea had torn Rainie's ballet dress.

Bianca thought that she could not ask Yuri about Thea's measurements. Yuri was an egotistical person, and she

would not want to accept help from Bianca or Luke. Louis, on the other hand, was a careless man, and Bianca

guessed that he would not know his daughter's measurements.

She thought of secretly taking Thea's measurements later that weekend when they would go back to Crawford

Manor. She was the one who bought her children's clothes, and she could estimate Thea's measurements more or

less accurately.

"Mm." Luke nodded.

At the hospital, Bianca and Luke bought a fruit basket in the supermarket downstairs, as well as some nutritional

supplements.

Nina was already thin, and Bianca thought that she would be losing weight in her stay in the hospital. She felt a little

sorry for her.

Bianca considered herself lucky to have married Luke. On the other hand, Nina could not escape her past and was

a shell of her former cheerful self.

Luke carried the fruit basket, while Bianca carried the relatively lighter supplements. They went to the reception to

enquire about Nina's ward before heading there.

Nina was in a ward with two other patients. When they went in, the families of the two other patients were there. It

was quite noisy.

Bianca frowned. Nina's bed was closest to the window. She lay there with her eyes closed and not moving,

seemingly very alone.

Bianca's heart wrenched as she placed the items on the cabinet next to her bed.

Nina was not asleep. She opened her eyes when she heard the sounds next to her and smiled when she saw that it

was Bianca. "Why did you come, Bianca, and you too, Mr. Crawford..."

She did not expect that they would come and visit her, and she felt that she had troubled them.

Bianca noticed that Nina's forehead was wrapped in bandages. She sat down on the chair beside the bed and

placed her hand on Nina's hands."

Does it hurt?"

Nina shook her head. "I'm fine. I'll just have to stay here for a few more days. You don't have to worry about me."

Bianca sighed and turned her head to look at Luke.

I'll go and have a smoke." Luke gave the two women some private space.

"Mm.” Bianca nodded. After the man left, she drew the curtains around the bed to block the prying eyes of the

other people in the ward. "Are you hurt anywhere else?" "I bumped my forehead, that's all. I got a few stitches. The

doctor also said that my leg was injured, but it's nothing too serious. I'll be out of the hospital in a few days. You

don't have to be like that." Nina felt apologetic when she saw how Bianca cared for her.

"You must've gotten a concussion. You'd better not get out of bed today then." Bianca knew that the hard way that

a concussion was no trivial matter.

"The doctor told me that." Nina's heart warmed when she heard Bianca's advice.

Earlier, she felt useless as she was lying on the bed. Nobody showed any concern to her, as though she had never

existed in the world.

She was bothered by the noise next to her, though it made her unable to sleep.

She could not ask them to keep it down. After all, it was visiting hours.

Bianca sighed when she saw the faint smile on Nina's lips.

"Can you get a glass of water for me, Bea? I'm thirsty." Nina blinked.

Bianca stood up, poured a glass of warm water for her, and found a straw." Luckily, Mr. Mallory prepared all these

for you. It'd be troublesome otherwise."

Nina laughed dryly.

"What's wrong?" Bianca turned to look at her.

She thought of something and continued asking before Nina could reply."

Didn't Mr. Mallory come to visit? Does he know that you're in the hospital?"

Nina shook her head and instantly felt the pain on her forehead. She tried to bear it, but tears welled up in her

eyes.

"Don't move..." Bianca sat down next to her and brought the straw to her mouth.

Nina emptied more than half of the glass before saying, "I'm not that close to him, Bea. That's why I didn't tell him."

Bianca sighed again and felt genuinely sorry for Nina.

"Aren't you planning to tell anyone that you're in the hospital? You can't get off the bed, and there's no one to take

care of you. That won't do.” "The nurse has arranged a caretaker for me. She should be here soon," Nina

explained.

"Are you going to stay here too? Wouldn't you rather stay in a private ward? " Bianca heard the voices of the

middle-aged woman in the ward. They were speaking very loudly.

How would Nina get her rest?

"I can't afford it," Nina said helplessly. She did not have much savings, and she did not know her mother's condition.

The doctor said that he would have to run a more thorough examination on Anna to find out the reason why she

passed out.

She had to save more money for any eventuality.

"The company will pay for your stay in the hospital. Get yourself checked into a better ward," Bianca said.

"That won't do," Nina said hurriedly. After all, it was not a workplace-related injury.

"The company has personal insurance policies for everyone. Don't worry about it," Bianca explained.

Nina stared into her eyes. "Don't lie to me." "Why would I lie to you? I bought the insurance while you were away on

vacation. If you don't believe me, I'll get HR to email the policy document to you. Don't worry. Even if there's no

insurance, I would gladly do this for you. You're my best friend, Nina, and you've helped me so much over the past

few years. It's my duty to help you when you're in need, so don't be a stranger to me, alright? We ought to help

each other." Bianca said as she tucked her into the blanket.
