Chapter 1332 A Few Hours of Peace
"You know that your Great-Grandpa doesn't care about me. If I leave alone, I don't think I'd be able to go back anymore." Bianca pretended to look frustrated to gain the child's sympathy. "That's why I brought you along, and it'll be easier forto go home. Do you understand now?"
"But we don't know when Daddy will be back home," Rainie shuddered and said. She could not shake off the fear whenever she heard Bianca speak, though she now understood why she was brought along. That way, Old Master Crawford would have no choice but to let Bianca in.
'Great-Grandpa cares formore than he cares for that woman...
'She's pretending to be my mother, but she can't stand GreatGrandpa and wants to leave. She's bringingalong so that she can go back...
'It means that she had never intended to leave in the first place...'
The more Rainie thought about it, the more afraid she was. What was the woman's motive for staying in the Crawford household?
"It doesn't matter if he comes back later. I'll go hafter I feel better. It won't take long, so you dont have to worry." Bianca was getting impatient as she saw the fear in Rainie's eyes.
She would rather not pick Rainie, but Lanie was too smart for his own good, and Tommy would make a lot of noise.
Rainie was too timid...
"If you want to go somewhere and play, why would you want to chere? This place is so scary, and I'm scared..."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRainie turned her head to look around her. When she woke up earlier, she noticed that the ceiling above her head was covered in spider webs...
Bianca had lost all her patience. She stuffed the remaining half a piece of bread into her mouth and explained slowly, "I think that you're too pampered in Crawford Manor. That's why I brought you here to experience a different lifestyle. Isn't that good?"
Rainie shook her head. "I don't want to experience a different lifestyle, Mommy. If you don't want to go back, I can go back on my own. I know the address. Just givemy backpack, and I can catch a cab home."
Bianca's expression sank when Rainie insisted on going home. "No! No matter what happens, you'll have to stay here for the next few days!"
"No, I don't wanna stay here. It's so scary and dirty, boo hoo hoo hoo..." Bianca's threatening tone made Rainie instantly burst into tears.
Bianca immediately covered her mouth and said, "Don't cry. I'm your Mommy, not a bad person. Why are you so afraid?"
Rainie could not make a sound because her mouth was covered. She could only let her tears flow in silence.
Bianca did not sympathize with the sobbing little girl at all." In any case, I've already made up my mind. We'll stay here for the next few days. Don't worry, I won't let you starve, but if you don't listen to me, I'll ditch you here and leave myself. We're in the slums, and the people around here don't have money. They'll see that you’re a pretty little girl, and they'll sell you to sbad guy for money!"
Her threats made Rainie shudder even harder.
She did not want to stay there, nor did she want to be sold for money. All she wanted was to go home!
Seeing that Rainie was sobbing even harder, Bianca frowned and warned her, " Don't cry. If you keep on crying, I'll leave you here. You might be treated like a princess at home, but don’t forget that you're not the only Crawford girl. There's also Thea, and your Great-Grandpa loves her very much."
Bianca did not mince her words when she was angry, and she did not care if her words would traumatize the little girl.
In any case, her threats achieved the intended effect. Rainie knew that being abandoned at this place was the worst possible outcome, and if she kept quiet, she might be able to survive the ordeal.
She wiped her tears away and tried her best not to cry even though she was deathly afraid.
Bianca grunted and slowly let go of her hand. "Good girl," she said.
Rainie said nothing.
Bianca handed her the breakfast. "Eat up. I don't want you to starve."
Rainie looked at the white bread. She did not have the appetite to eat. When she opened her mouth, all the sobbing earlier caused her to hiccup.
When Bianca heard that, she handed her a bottle of water." It doesn't feel good, right? You wouldn't have to go through all this if you just had been a good girl. You're my precious little princess, Rainie. I'll still love you even if no one else loves you, but you should know that my personality isn't the sas before because I've lost my memories. I don't like children who don't behave, but among the three, you're the only one who knows how to behave. That's why I love you the most. I won't hurt you if you could just be a good girl. Here, have a drink."
Rainie looked at the bottle of water that Bianca handed her. She remembered that she was knocked out after she drank the water that Bianca had handed her the night before.
If she had not been knocked out, she would not have been brought to this place.
Rainie began to feel afraid again.
Bianca raised her eyebrows and looked at her. "You've cried a lot earlier. If you don't drink swater to replenish your fluids, you'll be dehydrated. Quick, drink swater."
Rainie struggled internally. She was extremely thirsty, and she had no other choice but to take the water and drink it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBianca smiled in satisfaction when she saw Rainie do that.
She handed Rainie a slice of bread. "Here, eat something. Don't blme if you get hungry. How about if we spent the next few days as though we're in boot camp? I'll make you familiarize yourself with the environment first, and I'll prepare a military-style daily schedule for you."
Rainie did not understand what Bianca meant. She shook her head and said, "Mommy, I'm not hungry."
Seeing that Rainie did not want to eat, Bianca thought that she was a picky eater. She scarfed down the slice of bread in two bites.
She would take the opportunity to teach Luke's daughter sdiscipline.
If Rainie said that she was not hungry now, she would regret it later. There would be no more food left for her, and she would remember the lesson.
Rainie was very afraid when she saw how Bianca finished eating all the bread without keeping any for her.
She began to regret it.
She was thinking of running away later, so she wanted to save the bread for later. Obviously, her plan had failed.
Rainie wanted to say something. When she opened her mouth, she let out a yawn.
Bianca smiled and said, ’"Why, are you sleepy again?"
Rainie nodded. She did not know why she was so sleepy...
"If you're sleepy, you should lie down on the bed and rest a bit. Today's the only exception where you get to rest a little more," Bianca said as she rested her chin on her hand. She felt quite pleased with herself as she looked at the sleepy little girl.
She had given Rainie drug-laced water because she did not want Rainie to throw a tantrum.
The drug was not very potent, but it was enough to keep someone asleep for the next few hours. Bianca watched Rainie lie down on the bed without a word of complaint. A few seconds later, Rainie closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Bianca smiled. She had just earned herself several hours of peace and quiet.
