After Bianca got her nearly accurate answer, she calmed herself down and breathed. After a long, long time, she remembered that she had to get off from his hot and hard lap.When she tried to move, she found that her legs were jelly.She could not stand up.It felt as if her legs were not hers anymore.The man's thin, hot lips pressed against her earlobes. The shallow kisses as well as the heavy and hot breaths going into her eardrums made her numb all over. Her face flushed as her heartbeat quickened.She could not move anymore."Don't... Don't do this..." Bianca gasped, but she could not help but sink into his warm masculinity."Don't be afraid. No one’s going to come over.”Like a treasure in the palm of his hand, Luke picked her up and guided her to straddle him.Bianca could not sit that way at all because the man’s erection was… Too big and her skirt was too thin.The feeling of her unable to sit down made her blush.When he saw her predicament, Luke adjusted her to le
Luke kept stimulating Bianca as he watched the expressions on her face happily.From time to time, the man bit her lips.He seemed to be enjoying the process.The name ‘Charles Finn’ was displayed on his phone screen.Luke looked over and reminded her as he picked up the phone. "Hold my neck and don't move. If you do, you might fall.”She straddled his lap and did not grab onto anything. If she leaned back, she would really fall."Uncle Charles, is there anything wrong?" Luke was worried that something had happened to the two children, so he needed to answer Charles' call.Charles said something.Bianca gradually calmed down and tried her best to pull herself away from the strange feeling when he had dominated her. She did not care about whether it was awkward but slowly made sure that her legs were not sore as she reached toward the ground. She stood up without hesitation.After her skirt left the man's big hand, her skirt naturally fell down.She did not dare to look at his
Luke gave Bianca a call as he stood outside the club. “I’m at the entrance. You’ll see me when you come out.""Okay, I'm going out right now.”After Bianca hung up, she changed into her clothes and hurried out.The black Range Rover was parked domineeringly at the most conspicuous position in front of the entertainment club."Get in.”Luke secretly held her waist, opened the door with his other hand, and even quietly protected her head with his hand when she got in the car in case she knocked her head on the car door frame.Bianca sat down in the passenger seat and lowered her head as she fastened her seat belt.Luke closed the car door and finished smoking a cigarette. He narrowed his dark eyes and walked toward the trash can in front of the club to put out his cigarette before getting into the car.Bianca wanted to hurry him and wished he did not smoke, but she was scared that it might anger him.When she saw that he was not in a hurry at all, she could not help but wonder w
Bianca carried Rainie out.Blanche went to the door and picked up his sisters’ shoes before running out."Say goodbye to Grandpa Charles and Grandma Faye." After Luke finished speaking, he walked to the black Range Rover, unlocked the door, and opened it before chucking the backpacks in."Goodbye Grandma Faye, goodbye Grandpa Charles. Take care of yourselves.”Blanche rushed over, put his arms around the necks of the two old people, and gave each a kiss.Bianca turned around and said politely, "Goodbye."Faye and Charles both smiled contentedly and nodded.Luke stretched out his big hand to embrace her waist and walked back to the back seat of the car. He let her into the car and seated her in the backseat with the children.Since there were children, there was no other way. The backseat was the safer choice.For caution’s sake, he could never afford to let anything happen to his two kids and Bianca."Aunt Bea, why’d you come with Daddy?" Blanche got in the car and asked Aunt
After changing into her slippers, Bianca took Rainie back from the man's arms."Have you eaten dinner? Are you hungry?" Bianca was like a new mother doting on her child, afraid that her child might have a grumbling stomach."I've eaten dinner. I'm not hungry," Rainie said like a good girl.The child sounded like a baby still and Bianca could not help but smile.Luke went to the balcony, lit a cigarette, and turned his head. Through the glass doors, he saw the interaction between the mother and daughter in the living room.Rainie had one of her eyes bandaged while the other eye was opened. As she looked at Aunt Bea, the child's eyes seemed to be twinkling.It was obvious that the child was really happy.Luke watched them for a long while as his gaze grew deeper.In the living room."Shall I... Give you a bath?" Bianca's lips lingered on Rainie's face as she took in the child’s baby smell, letting herself into the reality that Rainie was her own daughter.Rainie nodded. "Okay,
After a long time, Marie felt as if she was going to die from the pain.It was just a casual hookup, but Xavier was as aggressive as someone who had taken Viagra."No... It hurts... It hurts..."Marie regretted it and thought she was going to die there and then."What’s wrong? Isn’t this what you want?” Xavier did not stop venting out on her. He thought the woman never meant what she said and deserved to be punished!Marie struggled weakly and shook her head. "I don't want it, I don't want it anymore..."No one was in the alley because the bar staff saw the boss going into the alley with a woman.They decided it was better not to bother him.In case the two of them were…Marie felt a hot pain on her body as if she was being torn apart. She collapsed onto the granite pavement in the alley and curled up in a ball.The banknotes on the ground were very eye-catching.The tears on her eyelashes dried up and her cheap makeup was smeared on her wet face. She pulled her broken nails
Rainie fell asleep in a daze and was almost unconscious.Her little meaty hand happily wrapped around Aunt Bea's neck. She buried herself more in Aunt Bea's chest with content. She pouted her little mouth and said, "Aunt Bea, you smell so nice…”Luke, who was lying on the other side of the big bed, "..."In the spacious and luxuriously decorated bedroom, only two dimly lit wall lamps were turned on above the bed. That was why the rest of the bedroom was covered in darkness except for around the big bed.Bianca gently patted Rainie's hair with her hand, trying to let the child fall asleep faster.Rainie's strength surpassed her imagination as a mother. She did not cry or make trouble and fell asleep like a good girl."Aunt Bea, I want to touch your boobies."Rainie closed her eyes, and her little fleshy hands fumbled down.Bianca knew that it was normal for a five-year-old child to want to hold their mother’s breasts to sleep…However, there was still a man in the big bed.She
As Luke walked back to his bedroom, he happened to see Bianca coming out of the bedroom with a blanket and pillow in her hand.When their eyes met, Bianca immediately dodged his gaze and lowered her head, grasping the blanket in her arms with her fingers.Luke frowned and looked at her without speaking.After a while, Bianca said, "I'll sleep on the sofa."She was about to pass by the man to walk toward the living room, but the blanket and pillow that she was holding in her hands were taken away by the man.Bianca looked at him.However, she saw the back of the man leaving. Under the dark-colored night robe, the man’s back was straight and his arms were broad. No matter how she looked, he had a perfect body.She saw Luke spreading out the blanket impatiently before throwing the pillow from his hand. He lay his body on it before it was laid out nicely. Bianca took a small step forward. As a woman, she was a little OCD and could not help but want to straighten the blanket out for
When Gerald heard this, his face fell. “Huh? Ms. Craw, you're not cooking anymore?”Luca said nothing. Luke had already left with the others. She turned her gaze back before walking inside.Gerald realized that Luca had only been cooking breakfast because of Lucius. The thought puzzled him. Had they taken a liking to each other from the very start? That did not seem right.In this fast-paced modern world, even if they had, using something as old-fashioned as cooking to win someone over did not add up.Still, the timing was too coincidental to ignore. Luca started cooking for everyone when Lucius arrived, and she stopped as soon as he left. That realization gave Gerald an eerie feeling.Thinking they might have known each other back on the island, it all suddenly made sense. Of course! They must have met before. How else could this all line up so perfectly?With that thought, Gerald quickly caught up with Luca. “Ms. Craw, my cooking is terrible. Why don’t you keep doing it?”
Kassy’s eye donor was Hera, the one Abel had brought over.Even though Hera’s eyes resembled Kassy’s, they did not meet the criteria for a transplant. However, Hera’s blood type matched Kassy’s exactly.Hence, Abel decided to use Hera’s eyes. His belief was that her eyes were specifically meant for Kassy.Shanks knew he would not be able to change Abel’s mind, so he did not try. Abel’s stubbornness was something even Kassy herself could not sway.Luca remained silent for a while, not saying anything further. She understood that using a cadaver was the best option as it would not harm anyone.However, the eyes Abel wanted for Kassy were not from a cadaver. He intended to take them from Hera.Luca certainly would not participate in such a surgery. It was too cruel.“What are you thinking?” Shanks suddenly asked.Luca shook her head. “I’m just thinking about the volunteer’s situation.”“You’re wondering if this solution will be marketed, aren’t you?” Shanks suddenly asked.L
“I’m still a bit worried. Let me take a look in your room and change the dressing while I’m at it.” Luca knew Luke would not want her to worry. Therefore, she needed to see for herself that everything was fine before she could feel at ease.“Alright.” Luke knew she was worried about him, so the two of them headed into the room.He took off his shirt, revealing the bandage wrapped around his torso.Luca could not help but chuckle at the sight. The wrapping was done by Gerald, and it was hilariously sloppy. It was haphazardly bound—overly tight in some places and entirely uneven. It looked like it was just meant to cover the wounds, with no thought for neatness.“Stop laughing.” Luke was clearly rendered speechless by Gerald’s lackluster bandaging skills as well.If it were not for the fact that it was difficult to bandage himself, he would never have let Gerald do it.“With it wrapped like this, how are you supposed to sleep at night?” Luca asked as she began unwrapping the ba
Abel chuckled. His voice was low and gravelly.“Hera, let’s agree on something. Don’t use threats of leaving to manipulate me anymore, or I won’t be happy,” said Abel in a low voice.What might have sounded like a plea or a compromise came across to Hera as a veiled threat.The cool sensation of his fingers brushed against her eyelids, and she could not help but shiver. His touch felt as cold as death itself. She could not feel a trace of warmth.Her hands clenched tightly together. The tension in her grip was the only thing keeping her from trembling further.“Alright,” Hera murmured obediently.Abel withdrew his hand. Hera opened her eyes. A strange unease stirred within her. For reasons she could not quite explain, Abel’s behavior filled her with an unsettling dread…“Will you stay at the hospital with me tonight?” Hera could not help but crave some semblance of comfort.Abel frowned slightly. “Stay here with you? And what about Luca?”“You could just send her home. I onl
Luca's expression was serious, and Hera realized she was not just trying to scare her. Ignoring her warnings had already caused her to suffer once.Unwillingly, Hera sipped on the cereal. Her resentment was evident in every movement.Luca noticed it was not difficult for her to handle. She quietly sat down and ate her own bowl of cereal.Hera did not have much of an appetite.Hera took a couple of bites before growing bored. She glanced at Luca and asked, “How did you end up working for Abel?”Luca did not respond. She calmly blew on her cereal and ate in silence, showing no intention of engaging in conversation.“I’m talking to you. Are you deaf?” snapped Hera.Luca lifted her gaze briefly and replied, “You should finish your cereal before it gets cold.”“I’m not even hungry.” Hera really had no appetite and was not planning to eat the cereal.“It’s still better if you eat something. Otherwise, when hunger strikes later, don’t expect me to help you,” said Luca, “I’m only he
Luke had never taken the medicine that could speed up healing, so his recovery was nowhere near as fast as the others from the Island of Despair.Luca did not respond to Gerald’s comment. Her gaze fixed on him with intensity.“No stitches,” said Luke, “I trust you.”Luca bit her lower lip.“But if you don’t stitch it, it might tear open,” insisted Gerald, staring at Luke’s wounds.Luke glanced at his injuries and shrugged, seemingly unconcerned, as though the wounds had nothing to do with Luca.“Stitches will leave scars.”“Are you afraid of scars? What kind of man doesn’t have a few scars on him? Scars are a symbol of manhood,” teased Gerald with a playful tone, “Scars show you’re reliable, that you can protect a woman.”Luke gave him a look as though he were an idiot, then his gaze shifted to Luca. “I don’t want too many scars. I’m worried my future wife might dislike them.”Luca’s heart sank at his words, but his lighthearted remark eased her sadness. Despite the severity
Luca could not help but tremble with heartache. She fought hard to resist the urge to rush forward.Everyone in the room had survived brutal training to make it out of the Island of Despair, and they could not help but shudder when they saw the scene. The sound of the whip felt like it was landing on their own bodies.Gerald closed his eyes, unable to watch any longer. It was too cruel for him to watch.The ten lashes felt like an eternity, stretching on for what seemed like a century.Luca looked at the drenched clothes on Luke. His eyes were red, and his shirt was so soaked that you could wring out the blood from it. Her hands were clenched so tightly into fists that the veins were bulging.Abel tossed the whip aside, looking at Luke’s disheveled state with satisfaction. He enjoyed the thrill of this bloody scene.He turned to Luca, noticing her reddened eyes, and smiled even more devilishly. “Hera is in the hospital now. You’ll go take care of her for the next few da
Luca instantly understood the situation. It was about Hera.Hera was someone Abel valued, possibly as a future corneal donor for Kassy. While Abel might not love Hera now, he certainly took her health seriously.In a calm tone, Luca explained, “She was hospitalized due to inflammation that caused a fever.”Abel furiously flung his half-smoked cigar at her. The glowing embers singed her clothes, leaving a small burn mark.She instinctively stepped aside.Abel roared, “What kind of care is this?! I told you to look after her! Is this how you handle things?”Luca was perplexed. When did he ever tell her to look after Hera?Besides, she did take care of her.”When Ms. Sanchez fainted last night, she already had a low-grade fever. I diagnosed her condition as inflammation and prescribed anti-inflammatory and fever-reducing medication. I also emphasized that she needed to take oral anti-inflammatory drugs. She didn’t trust me and threw out Mr. Shanks’ medication, which led to her con
Luca placed her hand on Hera’s other wrist, checking her pulse. “Her condition is worsening. The inflammation in her body has intensified.“I prescribed her medication. Those are Mr. Shanks’ formulations, and they're highly effective for reducing inflammation. It shouldn’t be getting worse.” Gerald pursed his lips before finally speaking up. “Luca, when I was cleaning yesterday, I saw that Ms. Sanchez had thrown all the medication you prescribed into the trash. She didn’t take any of it.”Luca was speechless.She had been questioning whether the medicine was ineffective or if she had made an error in diagnosis. It turned out that it was Hera herself who had sabotaged her treatment.“What should we do now?” asked Gerald.“There’s no other option. She needs to go to a hospital,” Luca decided firmly. “Her condition is serious, and since she doesn’t trust my treatment, the hospital is her best choice.”“Can’t you help her just this once?” pleaded Gerald, “I mean, she looks really b
