Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 68 An Angry Slap For The Fake Damsel In Distress

Granduncle had his hands behind him as he went to the living room.

Grandaunt held the reading glasses in one hand and the watering can in the other as she continued to water the blooming flowers on the windowsill.

The living room had an old cabinet with red lacquer and large peony patterns. Every green leaf that was drawn on looked very realistic.

He opened the cabinet.

There was a stack of newspapers on the left side of the cabinet. Granduncle had a habit of collecting old newspapers.

On the top of the stack, there was a thick photo album.

Granduncle took out the photo album and flipped through it until he found the photo that was bugging him.

There were four people in the photo-granduncle himself when he was young, and three other girls in their 20s.

In that photo, Allison stood in the middle with red trousers that were very popular in that era. However, she did not look as happy as the other two girls.

On the left of Allison was Grandaunt when she was young.

On the right of Allison was her best friend, Queenie Ziegler. She wore a white dress and had two intricate french braids. 2

Although the photo was taken 28 years ago, Granduncle knew he was not too old to remember a face wrongly.

After staring at the picture for a long time, Granduncle suddenly thought that perhaps he was overthinking.

A woman who became a secretary must just be a child of an ordinary person.

Granduncle thought so deeply about it that he did not notice his wife was done watering the flowers and had entered the house.

When Grandaunt saw the four people in the photo, she looked a little angry. She pointed at Queenie and said to the old man, "You can fix your lovesickness by sneakily looking at other people's photos."

'What nonsense are you talking about?!' Granduncle angrily put away the photos and stuffed the old album back into the cabinet.

"You should admit to looking at other people's photos if you did it. Daniel Tanner, don’t say I didn't remind you. Queenie is the Provincial Committee Secretary's wife! You should be ashamed of yourself. She told you that she didn’t like you back then. How dare a guy in his late 30s have a crush on a girl who's 20 years younger than you.’ Grandaunt was very jealous.

The thought of the old man having liked another woman when he was young pissed her off.

Granduncle did not want to argue with her, so he turned away and left the living room.

Being an old man meant that he did not do petty arguments anymore.

Queenie was Allison's best friend. They grew up together, and Granduncle fell in love with his sister's best friend. Even though she did not reciprocate the feelings, Granduncle was never jealous or resentful.

Queenie married an excellent soldier and lived a happy life. After all those years, her husband had become the Provincial Committee Secretary.

Daniel felt a little sorry for his sister. Compared with the girls who grew up with her, his sister's relationships and life were much more complicated and tough.

Paramount Hospital.

Luke drove Bianca there.

Bianca got out of the car, closed the door, and said to him, "Drive carefully."

Luke did not say much. He stared at her slim figure entering the hospital before looking away. He picked up the phone and made a call. He said," Contact Dean Winchester of Paramount Hospital immediately. There's a lung cancer patient with the surname Rayne that I want to be specially taken care of."

When Bianca entered the hospital, she felt a little uneasy.

Her dad had liver cancer when she was 18 years old, but when she found out about it, her dad was already in the hospital receiving treatment.

Therefore, she did not have any experiences going through this.

Paramount Hospital was very big and it took her a long time to make her way through the place. It was an old building left from the Second Sino- Japanese War, so the exterior walls were very thick and strong.

When Bianca went over to the receptionist, the receptionist asked her," Hello, is your father's surname Rayne?"

Bianca was surprised and nodded. "Yes."

'Please follow me.” The receptionist had an excellent attitude and showed her the way.

Bianca followed in cautiously and was given a waiting number to see a specialist.

She knew that it was probably Luke’s doing...

Nina was also at the hospital. When she saw Bianca, she asked, "Is Uncle here yet?"

Bianca shook her head.

Kevin said he was going to come by himself and did not need her to pick him up.

Bianca knew that Dad was afraid Jennifer and her daughter would create conflicts with Bianca.

"Don't be too sad, or else I’ll feel distressed too. There's nothing much we can do to change what happens to a person’s life." Nina did not know how to make Bianca feel better.

Five years ago, Bianca was tortured by her dad who was suffering from liver cancer. Now that he got lung cancer, it was another horrible thing on top of the other for Bianca. It was adding ice on top of a refrigerator for Bianca.

The blow was not going to freeze Bianca to death, however.

Bianca had learned to keep warm and stay alive.

When it was past ten, Kevin called.

"Bea, I can only reach the hospital at around one in the afternoon. Is it alright if you go back to your office first?"

Bianca was worried that her dad would not come and said, "I'm waiting in the hospital. I won't leave until you come."

Kevin said, "I’ll definitely go, but I have to sort some things out first.”

Nina stuck her head next to the phone and heard everything. When Bianca hung up, she said, "Let’s get something to drink outside. We can take our time and wait. It's better if we get some fresh air instead of being stuck inside this hospital."

"Yeah." Bianca went downstairs with her.

The elevator in the hospital was always full of people, so Bianca and Nina took the stairs.

When they reached the landing of the stairs on the third floor, Bianca saw two people standing in front of a window. One was Marie, who looked sad, and the other was Anna, who looked nervous.

"Mom? Why are you here?" ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Nina was surprised.

When Marie saw Bianca, she left and went to the obstetrics and gynecology department without saying a word.

Anna glared at her daughter and Bianca who were a hindrance. She turned around and grabbed Marie's arm as she begged. "Oh Marie, you can't be mad at this kid. She’s the flesh and blood of our Langdon family..."

When Nina heard that, she had a fierce look in her eyes. She said to Bianca, "Go ahead, I’ll catch up." 1

Bianca nodded. Since the breakup, the affairs in the Langdon family had nothing to do with her anymore.

She did not want to be involved, so she went ahead and waited for Nina in front. 1

Marie said to Anna in tears, "Aunt Anna, it's not that I don't want to have this child, but Jean doesn't want anyone to know that it’s his child. He thinks that this child has done too much harm to others."

The 'other' person was obviously referring to Bianca.

Bianca felt as if her reputation was being tarnished right in front of her.

At the same time, Marie's eyes stared miserably at Bianca who was waiting for Nina.

Anna understood in an instant and straightened her face. She said, ' Marie, my son is too stupid. He was deceived by a pure-looking woman. I feel sorry for him. The two of you are good kids! Poor thing!" 2

"If it was up to you, what would you choose? How could my son feel so bad as to not acknowledge his own flesh and blood? She's the shameless woman who embarrassed my son. How can she continue living her life as if she did nothing wrong? The person who should be ashamed is her, not you!" 1

Bianca heard everything. After all, Anna was shouting very loudly.

There were many people lined up in the hospital by the stairs. They were watching the whole scene and talking about it.

Nina looked at her old and confused mother and Marie, who played the part of the damsel in distress. She slapped Marie's left cheek forcefully with her right hand.
