"You can’t pick up the phone the way you are now." Allison did not need to look to guess who was calling.Bianca lowered her head as her tears continued to flow out."Come on, wipe your tears and follow me." Allison could not say anything comforting. She took out tissues and handed them to Bianca as if it was the best thing she could do.Bianca rejected the two tissues Allison was giving her. She took another deep breath, wiped the tears from her face, and walked into the hospital.A sad person who kept crying while they walked in the hospital would attract a lot of people's attention, but they would not stare because sad people were aplenty in a place like that.The elevators in the hospital were not busy in the afternoon.Soon, Bianca arrived at the floor where her dad was hospitalized."I need to go to the bathroom."She knew she had to take into account her dad's feelings and not let him see her embarrassed and sad.Allison stood silently at the bathroom door, waiting.Bi
"Your friend gave me her key." Luke explained how he got the key in his hand.Bianca glanced at him to signify that she understood, but her eyes were still red and swollen from crying.Luke suddenly took two steps toward her to check what was going on with her. However, when he saw that she was frightened by him approaching, he took several steps back.It was clear that she was dodging him instinctively.Luke did not know why she was avoiding him.He carefully recalled that she did not reject the hot kiss when he leaned on her body in front of the car before going to bed when they were still in the small town last night. In fact, she was receptive most times and responded enthusiastically.Since they were in the car with the old man in the morning, he did not talk much with her due to the old man's presence. However, when they were conversing normally, she did not show such an alienated attitude toward him.It only started in the afternoon when he tried calling her but she did n
Luke could not tell what Bianca was thinking. That feeling made him panic because he had hoped that they were able to know what each other was thinking in their relationship."Come here," he said those two words softly as he stretched out his arms and pulled her into his embrace.The moment the man’s big hand touched Bianca's back, she shuddered. Each distinct finger of his was like a soldering iron that burnt her skin."Let go, don't hug me..." Bianca said tiredly and hoarsely.The woman in his arms had lost all her strength to break free.Luke hugged her even more tightly. His thin lips started from her forehead and kissed down inch by inch, sliding across her cheeks and finding her lips…When both of their lips touched, Bianca cried out loud.Luke stopped all of his movements as his body stiffened. She felt his hot and rapid breath on her lips."If you do this again, I will disappear completely from your sight from tomorrow onward." Bianca threatened.She was cornered.Luk
After going to the hospital in the morning, Bianca went to work at T Corporation.She received a call from Allison at noon."Did you know that Luke is in a horrible mood right now?”"I didn't know." Bianca did not like hearing Allison's voice even if the woman was her biological mother.Allison lowered her voice and reminded again. "I hope you can understand which one is more serious. Breaking up with Luke will cause him more than a few months of pain, but if you tell him the truth, I'm afraid the pain will last a lifetime."Bianca said mockingly, "I don’t know whether Luke should feel lucky or sad to have a mother like you.”After Bianca said that, she hung up and placed her phone heavily on the desk.Sue, who saw everything from the side, was sensitive on the matter and knew that Bianca was in a bad mood.Bianca got up and went to print a document.As she stood in front of the printer, she thought painfully about how Allison could be her biological mother. No matter how cold
Luke quickly rushed from the office to the neighborhood where Bianca and her grandpa lived.The black Range Rover stopped at the gate of the neighborhood. As soon as he got out of the car, his sharp-eyed subordinate came to report to the tall man. "Mr. Crawford, the people have been contained and the car has been towed away.""Good job," Luke said those two words indifferently and walked toward the frightened old man.The person behind him did not follow him. After reporting, he was not sure what to do next.The police took away the two scar-faced men. The traffic police department had also ordered a tow truck to tow away the already broken car. However, the crowd from the neighborhood were still excited and surrounded the old man.Luke walked up to the old man, helped him up, and said, "Grandpa, everything’s settled.”"Sorry about the trouble… I couldn’t get through Bea's phone so that group of people called you…” Grandpa was extremely sorry and out of breath. He kept thinking a
Bianca did not expect that Luke would take the two little kids to watch a movie like Life.Even though she had never watched it, she had seen several of her colleagues and ex-classmates posting about it, saying how some parts of the film were scary and bloody. Some even called it disgusting.Bianca glanced at Luke and said nothing. She had the little kid in her arms and went into the manor with her head down.Rainie laid on Aunt Bea's shoulder, but she seemed to be able to sense it when she passed by her dad. She raised her head to stick her tongue out at her dad.Luke, "..."Allison stood on the balcony on the second floor, looking at the scene at the main entrance downstairs with an ugly expression.‘Didn't I tell her to stay away from Luke? Why is she here? Isn’t she ashamed of herself?‘She’s acting like they’re a family of three!’After getting angry, Allison sorted the expression on her face and went downstairs.The two old men in the garden also saw the scene at the doo
Luke had been thinking about something else just now and did not focus on playing with his children. However, he knew that if he stayed close to his daughter, he would definitely meet Bianca.Bianca walked over and flashed a look at Luke. Then, she crouched down to wipe the tears from the little kid's face.Rainie laid on Bianca again.Bianca picked the child up and coaxed her. When she turned around and saw a complicated look on Luke’s face, she could not help but say, "If you don't know how to play with kids, you can do other things."The two kids were about the same age as her kids.Bianca hoped that her kids were not being treated that way by a father like him.Luke stood by the side with a calm expression. He looked at his daughter's face that looked similar to Bianca’s. He said in a daze, "Who are you to tell me how to be a dad? An outsider might even think that you’re the mother of my children.”"..."Bianca glanced at the man swiftly.At dinner.The two old men took t
Jean walked out of his room and went to eat.Nina also went out with him. She told him that she was going to wash her hands in the bathroom first. After she made sure her brother was sitting at the dining table, she tiptoed into her brother's room again.She picked up the laptop bag and fiddled with it for a while. However, she realized that the lock could not be opened without the passcode.The material of the computer bag was special. It was not made of normal fabric and could not be cut open with scissors."Sneaky man. I wonder what horrible things he’s up to." Nina was so angry that she wanted to smash his laptop....Nighttime had fallen.The black Range Rover slowly drove on the street that had surging traffic.Luke drove intently. He was wearing a black suit and white shirt which seemed to make his serious and distant expression look even colder.The first impression the man gave was always indifference.Bianca sat quietly in the passenger seat."Do you mind if I smok
