Chapter 846 A Child Is Much Better Than A Pet
Lacy was taken aback when she heard what Melissa said. There was a look of surprise in her eyes.
After all, her son had never been in a serious relationship for as long as she could remember. This was the first time she heard that a woman by her son’s side was expecting. She was overjoyed to hearthat!
However, when she saw how hard Melissa was gritting her teeth...
Lacey grabbed her hand again. She started telling white lies as she comforted her, ' Melissa, it doesn't matter even if the woman is pregnant. She still won't be able to join the Tanner family. It’s no big deal, we'll let her give birth to the child. My husband and I will raise them. You and Xavier can still get married... I can guarantee that the child will never be a barrier between you Xavier. I'll not let the child get in your way..."
Melissa's brows were tightly knitted together. She screamed, "What? Are you going to let that b*tch give birth to the child? That can never happen! As long as I’m a part of the Tanner family, I’ll never allow that child to exist!"
Her voice was sharp and piercing, causing other shoppers who were passing by or resting by the corridor to look at her.
Melissa did not hold back and became even more frantic. "Aunt Lacy, I need to make this clear. If the Tanner family wants to have me as your daughter-in-law, you must respect my principles. Unless the baby was conceived in my belly, I’ll kill the rest of them! My parents will not let me be wronged. You can only choose between the bastard child and me..."
Bianca looked at Melissa's jealous expression that had turned vulgar and hideous. She was a little creeped out.
Melissa's jealousy was still so strong. Previously when she found out that Xavier had something to do with Bianca, she had framed her again and again.
Melissa had not changed much over time, but it seemed that she had gotten even more sinister...
Lacey's expression changed. She looked embarrassed and helpless.
When she noticed that people were staring, she pulled on Melissa's sleeves and whispered, "Okay, my dear, I’ll do as you say. You need to work on getting pregnant..."
Melissa stomped her foot and said angrily, "What can I do if your son doesn't want to sleep with me? Do you think I can give birth to a child on my own?"
After speaking, she stepped on her seven-inch high-heels and walked into the mall while swaying her hips.
"Melissa, wait for me, I'm still tired." Lacey grabbed the shopping bags and followed behind Melissa like an old maid.
Melissa did not notice Bianca because there were a lot of people inside the mall. Bianca was sitting in a high-traffic area where the bustling shops were. Hence, the crowd blocked her from Melissa's sight.
Bianca saw Melissa entering the shop she had just left. She narrowed her eyes slightly.
Xavier should still be in the shop with his pregnant little lover.
It was likely that the two parties would run into each other.
What a good show it would be!
However, it had nothing to do with her. After all, it was about time Xavier paid for his sins!
Rayne Manor.
Bianca went to visit her grandpa first.
The caretaker was taking care of him. Her grandfather was in a deep slumber. He needed a lot of rest after undergoing major surgery at his old age. His immune system was affected and his body was recovering slowly, so he was not able to move around as much.
Seeing that her grandfather was resting, Bianca checked in with the caretaker and learned that he just had dinner an hour ago. He took his medicine immediately after.
Bianca tucked her grandfather in, told the nanny to take good care of him, and placed the gifts she had bought for her grandfather at the mall earlier on the side of his bed. She then returned to the living room.
As soon as she got to the living room, Tommy pounced on her like a cheery bird.
He hugged her thigh tightly and said, "Mommy, why did you come back so late? Tommy missed you so much..."
The twins were sent to Crawford Manor to spend time with Old Master Crawford a few days ago, so Tommy was the only one left in the manor.
Old Master Rayne stayed in his room a lot because of his poor health, but when the weather was great, the caretaker or Bianca would bring him out to bask in the sun.
Therefore, the only person in the villa who was active was her baby son.
Bianca's heart warmed when she saw her son's handsome little face that was filled with joy.
She squatted down and looked at her son. "Mommy bought something for you and your brother and sister. That’s why I was late." "Oh, is that so? Thank you for the gift." Tommy planted a kiss on Bianca's face.
Bianca giggled at her son's actions and placed the gifts on the sofa.
She took out one of the smaller shopping bags and handed it to Tommy." Mommy bought you a pair of overalls, two T-shirts, and a leather jacket. Do you like them?" "Yes, Tommy loves them. Mommy, you have the best taste! You must be tired after shopping, so let me massage your legs..." Tommy was trying to make Bianca happy while he attentively hammered her leg with his tiny fists.
Feeling her son’s uneven massage on her legs, Bianca smiled brightly. Her heart seemed to be full of sweet honey.
Raising a child was better than raising a kitten or a puppy.
Although Tommy was naughty and often pushed her buttons, when he was well-behaved, he was adorable.
When Luke came back, it was late at night. His handsome face showed his fatigue.
He thought that Bianca was asleep, so he took a shower and walked out in a white bathrobe.
He sat on the sofa with his eyes closed to rest. He planned to wait for his hair to dry before going to bed.
The recent events involving T Corporation and the pursuit of Wayne Blatt occupied most of his time now.
Linder the dizzying warm lights, Luke's resolute and handsome silhouette looked tempting and sexy.Property © .
When he closed his eyes and went through his thoughts, a pair of soft hands gently pressed on his forehead and temples, giving him a massage.
Bianca's fingers were slender and soft under the lights. Her figure that was leaning on his back was like a willow blowing in the wind.
Luke knew who she was without having to look. He knew it was her the moment he smelled her unique scent.
He raised his hand and moved it upward little by little along her fingers.
In the end, he grabbed her hand and wrapped it in his, as if he was tempting her...
