Chapter 1329 Did Something Happen?

The butler immediately made arrangements.

Meanwhile, Bianca drove the car to the outskirts of A City. By the time she parked the car in front of the pre-arranged house, it was already past midnight.

She had taken all the precautions. In order to avoid being tracked down by the people sent by Old Master Crawford, she made many detours on roads without surveillance cameras.

It would have been difficult for someone else to do that, but she was from the Island of Despair, and it was very easy for her to do so.

Bianca smirked when she glanced at her phone that was already out of battery because it had been vibrating nonstop. She brought her handbag and Rainie's backpack into the house. When she returned and sat back in the car, Rainie had already woken up.

Rainie was still groggy because she was still under the lingering effects of the drug. She took some time to focus and realized that she was still in the car. She looked at the woman in front of her and asked, "Where am I?"

"You've woken up already. Let's go into the house to rest." Bianca was quite relieved that Rainie had woken up; that saved her the trouble of carrying the girl inside. She opened the car door and stepped out.

Rainie sat in the car and did not move. She looked outside the car window and realized that she did not recognize the surroundings.

Bianca knocked on the window when she saw that Rainie had no intention of stepping out. ’ Hey, get out of the car," she urged.

Rainie was scared to be in an unfamiliar place. She shuddered when she looked at the woman standing outside the door. "Where are we, Mommy?"

"This is my house. Get out of the car now," Bianca said impatiently.

Rainie remained seated in the car. She had no intention of getting out. When she turned around to look for her backpack, she saw that it was no longer in the backseat.

Seeing that she did not get out of the car, Bianca opened the car door for Rainie and unfastened her seatbelt. "We'll spend the night here today, and we'll go home tomorrow."

Then, she carried Rainie out of the car. Rainie looked at the dilapidated house and asked, "Why are we spending the night here, Mommy?"

"Because I've lost my way, and there's no other option other than spending the night here." Bianca did not care about the plausibility of her excuse. She closed the car door, placed Rainie on the ground, held her hand, and led her inside.

Rainie was very reluctant to follow that woman, but she was only a child, and she could not overpower an adult woman.

She did not struggle when Bianca dragged her into the house.

Fortunately, the dilapidated house was relatively clean.

Bianca put the bags into a closet and locked it. Then, she turned around to speak to the little girl standing in a corner." Which bed do you want, darling?"

Rainie pointed at one of the beds and spoke weakly, "That one..."

"Alright, you can sleep there then," Bianca said as she sat down on the other bed.

Rainie became more afraid when she saw that Bianca was relatively calm. She wanted to take her phone, but her phone was in the backpack that was locked in the closet.

She gulped and said softly, ' Mommy, I want to take a bath."

Bianca frowned. "It's already so late, and the water is too cold. Can you take the bath tomorrow?"

She dared not check in to a hotel because she did not want the people from the Crawford family to find them. That was why she chose to stay in a dilapidated house without hot water.

Even though Bianca had lived the high life as Luke Crawford's wife for the past three years, she was nonetheless from the Island of Despair, and she had lived in much worse conditions.

The conditions of the dilapidated house were nothing to her at all.

Rainie looked at the filthy mattress on the wooden bed. She struggled internally for half a minute until she was too tired to stand up. Eventually, she sat down on the bed.

Bianca did not feel any sympathy for Rainie, nor did she think that what she did was wrong.

In fact, she thought that it was the right thing to do. Luke's three children were too soft, and she was helping him to toughen them up.

"It's already so late. You should sleep soon. You won't feel afraid after you're asleep." Bianca noticed that Rainie's body was trembling slightly. After she said that, she lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

Rainie was crying silent tears. Even though Bianca did not physically harm her, she was very afraid in that unfamiliar environment.

Looking at Bianca, who had already fallen asleep, she carefully lay on the bed and clasped her hands together to pray.

'Daddy, Mommy, Lanie... where are you?'

Tears continued to fall as Rainie thought of her family. She had a feeling that Bianca was deliberately keeping her there.

Even though Bianca had promised her that they would go home tomorrow, she had a feeling that she would not be going home...

She regretted not listening to her brother.

When Lanie woke up the next morning, he immediately ran over to Rainie's bedroom and knocked on the door. No one answered, and after he opened the door, he saw that no one was inside.

He began to have an ominous premonition.

He ran to the living room and saw Old Master Crawford sitting on the couch. He went over and said, "Great-Grandpa, did Rainie come home last night?"

Old Master Crawford looked at him and shook his head.

He had stayed up all night because he could not contact Rainie. Despite the butler's exhortations, he remained seated on the couch.

There was not much his men could do at night, so he had to wait until the morning.

Lanie felt nervous suddenly. He said, "She must have taken Rainie away."

"Who are you talking about. Master Lanie?" The butler asked. He thought that Lanie had been overly worried about Rainie since last night.

As far as he knew, Rainie had gone out of the house with her mother. Even though they did not come home, he should not have worried so much.

"Th..." Lanie immediately stopped himself from calling Bianca "that woman."

"I mean, Mommy. Mommy must have taken Rainie away," Lanie said.

Old Master Crawford nodded. All of them saw Bianca bring Rainie out of the house. He was afraid that might have met with an accident.

"We all know that, Master Lanie," the butler said. This belongs to - ©.

Lanie was beginning to be anxious, but he did not know how to explain it. "Great-Grandpa, have you managed to find Rainie yet?"

"It's easier to look for her during the day. You don't have to worry," Old Master Crawford patted Lanie's head and comforted him.

Lanie knew that there was more to the incident. They thought that he did not know anything because he was still young, but he knew far more than they did.

After he found out that their mother was an impostor, he knew that there was more to the incident.

If not that someone was conspiring something major, why would someone change her face and pretend to be their mother?

"Great-Grandpa, should we call the police?" Lanie wanted Rainie to get home as soon as possible, but at the same time, he regretted not convincing Rainie to stay instead of going out alone with that impostor.

Tommy happened to come down the stairs when he heard that. "What's wrong, Lanie?" He asked.
