Chapter 442 He Fears Daddy, But Daddy Fears Mommy
Bianca sighed and placed her phone on the table. She thought that she would visit Old Mr. Norman later.
After all, Old Mr. Norman was an important client. Moreover, Queenie had extended the invitation to her. Either way, she felt that
she should pay the old man a visit.
She turned her head and saw Lanie struggling with a thick book of math problems.
Curiously, she glanced over and saw that the book was meant for a fourthgrade student.
Bianca took the book away from Lanie and frowned. "Lanie, you'll be going into the first grade soon. Why are you doing fourth-
grade problems?"
Lanie sat up straight. There was a determination in his childish voice. "I want to skip to the third grade, Mommy. The first grade is
too easy for me."
Bianca was stunned!
As she looked at Lanie saying that in all seriousness, she remembered something that Lanie's teacher said during a parent-
teacher meeting.
"Lanie is a very intelligent boy. You could even call him a child prodigy.
"His intelligence is equal to that of a third or fourth grader. It might be a waste of time if he has to go through the elementary
school grades like a normal student. Perhaps he should skip several grades.”
Bianca was happy that her child was outstanding, but she had her concerns.
Many child prodigies burned out while they were young. Moreover, she did not want to take away Lanie's opportunity of enjoying
a proper childhood.
She had never considered skipping Lanie's grades.
Now that she saw that her son had made up his mind like a little adult, she did not know how to react. "Do you know what
skipping grades means, Lanie?" "I know, Mommy."

Lanie stared at Bianca with his big and animated eyes and his hands behind his back, speaking like an adult, "I'm already six
years old, and I can make decisions. I will be responsible for my actions. When I'm older, I can share Daddy's burden at work.
That way, Daddy wouldn't need to work overtime every day, and he'll have more time to spend with you and Rainie...
The little boy knew that his father rarely had free time to spend with Bianca, let alone him and his sister.
Their family was not like the others.
Other families could go on hiking trips and excursions, but they could not.
Lanie thought that it was because his father was busy working.
Tears welled up in Bianca's eyes as she looked at the serious expression on the little boy’s childish face.
'Why is he so sensible?'
Sometimes, she thought that she preferred her children to be ignorant so that they could enjoy their childhood days without
worry.
Bianca touched her son's cheeks and said, "We'll discuss that with Daddy and make a decision. You're still young, Lanie. I hope
that you can grow up happily with your sister."
Lanie planted a wet kiss on his mother's cheek. ‘I know, Mommy."
When Luke came out of the kitchen, he happened to see his son kiss Bianca.
Luke felt unhappy seeing Bianca being kissed by a "little man," even though that person was his son. i
As he looked at Lanie's handsome face, a hint of jealousy flashed in his profound eyes.
Luke walked sullenly in front of his son. "Have you finished your homework, Lanie?"
Lanie turned around to look at his father, blink, and said with a grin, "I'm almost done, Daddy. I've finished the problems you gave
me."
The little boy flipped to the last page of his textbook and showed it to his father, waiting for his father's praise.

Luke glanced casually at it. "Oh? Since you've finished it, let's start you with another book. Looks like this one is too easy for
you."
Lanie was choked by his father's words. He looked at Bianca with his puppy eyes, as though feeling infinitely aggrieved.
Bianca hugged Lanie tightly and looked at Luke accusingly. "He's still so young. Why must you burden him with so much
homework? The trend in parenting now is to reduce the child's burden, but you're adding on to it instead. You should know how
to combine work with leisure. Lanie, don't listen to Daddy. Now that you're done with your homework, you can go and play."
Seeing that Bianca was getting angry, Luke’s cold expression became fawning. "Don't be angry, Bianca. I'll listen to what you
say. You can go and play now, Lanie."
Lanie pulled a face at his father.
He might be scared of Daddy, but Daddy was scared of Mommy, and Mommy listened to him. With Mommy's protection, he
would not have to be afraid of Daddy! 1
Bianca told Luke about Old Mr. Norman.
When Luke knew that Old Mr. Norman was recuperating, he felt that he should visit the Norman residence with Bianca.
He shared a close relationship with Old Mr. Norman. Even if he did not, he would pay him a visit as a courtesy from a
businessman.
Old Mr. Norman might be retired, but his son Jack was the most influential person in A City. It would be beneficial for T
Corporation if Luke made friends with him.
For Old Mr. Norman's illness, Bianca decided to bring him fruits that were rich in vitamins and pectin.
After sending the children back to Crawford Manor, Luke and Bianca went to the Norman residence.
The Norman residence was on a plot of land far away from the city.
The buildings looked rather dated, but the lawn was impeccably tended and the place was tidy. One could see that Old Mr. and
Mrs. Norman loved order.
An old man with silvery-white hair was sitting on a rattan chair, enjoying the sun. That was none other than Old Mr. Norman.

He was talking about something with Jack. Queenie was hanging fresh laundry on the clothesline. They might have a caretaker,
but Jack and Queenie liked to do chores themselves.
Old Mrs. Norman was making tea by the side. Leia, impeccably dressed, was telling her interesting stories from her life, which
made the old woman laugh.
The Normans turned their heads when they heard a car arrive.
A luxury car was parked outside of the residence.
The car door opened. Luke stepped out of the car carrying a fruit basket, and Bianca came out of the other door.
Leia's heart thumped wildly when she saw Luke's arrival. However, when she saw Bianca next to her, her heart ached and itched
as though it had been stung by a thousand wasps.
'Curses. Why does Luke bring Bianca everywhere he goes?'
