Eler nodded and said shyly, "It was so scary just now. Fortunately, Mr. Shanks was there to help..."Bianca's expression was calm when Eler mentioned Shanks again.She noticed how shy Eler would get whenever she mentioned Shanks. It was exactly how a 19-year-old girl would act when she had a crush on someone.Eler noticed that Bianca was silent. The thoughts in her mind were overwhelming her, so she blushed and asked, "Miss, you’re more knowledgeable than me. What kind of girls do you think Mr. Shanks likes?"Bianca shook her head to indicate that she had no clue.Abel had once mentioned that the reason why Shanks was helping him retaliate against Luke was that the love of his life died from the bombing of the Russian army.From that, she could determine that Shanks was a loyal and affectionate man. No other woman could hope to have a happy ending falling in love with him."Sister!" Amur walked in, his expression instantly changing when he heard what Eler said.Eler was taken a
Bianca did not want to be involved, but if there was no one to guide Eler and Amur, they would fall into a bottomless abyss.She said so much in hopes that Amur would not push himself into a corner.Amur's current physique and skills were far from enough to escape this place.Amur nodded, bent over, and said, "Miss, I understand."Bianca glanced at Eler, who was still crying. She nodded and said, "It’s time for lunch. Go have something to eat."Amur glanced at Eler and nodded. "I'll bring both of you some food.""Okay, thank you." Bianca thanked him.After Amur left, Bianca sat on the edge of the bed and silently watched Eler.Eler cried for a long time before noticing that Bianca was staring at her. She silently wiped her tears away."Miss..." She felt like breaking down again as soon as she spoke.Seeing her tears falling uncontrollably, Bianca grabbed some tissue and handed them to her. "Don't cry. Love is complicated but you’ll figure it out eventually.""Miss, have you
As a pregnant woman, Bianca was too frail. Shanks had to take it seriously now that she was at risk of a miscarriage after being triggered. Abel was not anxious when he heard that the child in Bianca's stomach was in danger. He leaned against the wall and whistled, feeling a little triumphant. "What a weakling."Shanks’ hands were in his coat pockets as he looked at the woman lying on the bed. He said with a blank expression, "Do you want to keep the baby?""Of course," Abel replied without even thinking about it."Keeping the baby will be more troublesome," Shanks said as he knew that Bianca’s body would be affected after going through these near-misses. Abel shrugged his shoulders and acted indifferently. "It doesn’t matter how troublesome it is as long as I can control Bianca."Eler walked into the room and was stunned when she saw what was going on. She looked up at Shanks and asked, "What happened to Miss?"Shanks did not answer her. Since Abel was sure that he wanted to
Luke stared daggers at her as soon as she said that.Maxine paused and kept the rest of what she wanted to say to herself. His gaze was spine-chilling. It reminded her of a demon from hell that was capable of silently killing anyone.She felt scared, but she had no regrets.The night before, she found the opportunity to spike Luke's wine with the drug that Shanks gave her. Things went well. After he drank it, he passed out.Maxine then sent him to the hotel, took the photo that Abel requested, and kept a copy for herself.She deliberately did it so that Luke would get the wrong impression. However, she did not expect that when he woke up the next day, he did not react and even treated her as though she was invisible.Maxine was beyond furious, so she came to Old Master Crawford in hopes that he would be on her side.Susan was just enjoying the drama. When she saw that Maxine was so scared that she immediately kept quiet after being stared at by Luke, Susan said mockingly, "Luke,
Luke looked at his son seriously. The light shone on his childish face, highlighting his serious expression.He touched his son's face and said, "I have only one wife and you only have one mother. Her name is Bianca."Since high school, his heart had always belonged to Bianca. Even when they were not together, he still cared a lot about her and silently paid attention to what she was doing.Luke never thought about starting a new relationship even when she went to study abroad after the twins were born.Luke and Bianca were soul mates. Once they were in each other’s lives, they were destined to be involved for a lifetime. The connection they had would never be forgotten."Daddy, do you love Mommy?" Blanche asked again. He loved his family a lot and did not want to be separated from them for even a moment."I love her," Luke nodded and said. His love for her was not the superficial kind but the kind that was etched deeply in his soul.Blanche smiled, the worry in his eyes vanishi
Luke's expression did not change one bit when faced with Irving's urging. His gaze was cold, and he did not have the attitude they thought he should have considering he had done something wrong."Butler, go to the study and get the black folder on the table," Luke calmly ordered the butler. The others in the living room were confused."Yes." The butler was not sure of his intentions but went upstairs at his orders."Luke..." Old Master Crawford thought he was being abrupt and impolite."Grandpa, I’m telling you that I didn’t do anything to Miss Douglas. As a matter of fact, my lawyer thinks that she has caused harm to my body." Luke’s expression was cold. He held Blanche tightly in his arms.Blanche kept quiet when the adults were conversing because he believed in his father. Irving's expression changed a little when he heard Luke’s words. He had looked at him with admiration a second ago, but now, he was fuming.‘Maxine harmed him? It takes two hands to clap! How could he say
"What are you doing?" Verona did not understand why her husband was apologizing.To her, it was not a serious matter. If Luke really pursued the matter, the worst-case scenario would be to go to court. They most definitely could afford to hire a famous lawyer."Shut up!" Irving felt ashamed. Originally, he thought it would be great to build a relationship with the Crawford family, but he did not expect that this was all plotted by his own daughter from beginning to end. As her father, he ended up being used by her!Verona wanted to express her dissatisfaction, but seeing that Irving’s expression had turned ugly, she held herself back. She glared at Luke, stood up, and took Maxine's hand. "Let's go.""Mom..." Maxine did not want to leave, but she had no choice considering how awkward the situation was."Haven’t you embarrassed us enough?" Irving also wanted to leave. He had lost all his dignity and stared at her fiercely.‘Spiking someone’s drink and taking an indecent photo just
"Do you think that there’s nothing I can do if you don’t want to tell me the truth? I'm canceling the partnership right now." Irving was disappointed when he saw how she refused to tell the truth."Dad, I told you that I don't know anything about the drug. We’ve already signed the contracts, and if we back out now, we’ll lose a lot of money!" Maxine panicked when she heard that her father wanted to pull back his funds.It was a trivial matter to back out of the contract as Capital Corp could afford it, but Abel was no ordinary man.If they canceled the contract, Abel would be furious and take revenge. She would not be able to defend herself at all!Maxine had heard from Hera Sanchez that Abel was so powerful that he could make someone disappear without a trace. If such a man was unhappy and decided to go after her, she would be helpless."Maxine, what else are you hiding from me?" Irving clenched his fist. If Verona were not standing in front of Maxine, the other side of Maxine’s
