Chapter 262 Such A Gentle Gaze...

Author: Heap Heap
Back at home, the two children went to the study and did their homework, while Bianca went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

In the sink was a basin half-filled with water and two fishes. Bianca was going to prepare fish for dinner.

Fish was very nutritious. It was the perfect food for a child's physical and mental development.

Her children might be picky eaters, but Bianca wanted to try to change their food habits.

After seeing Luke and Mavis ride in the same car, she was not in her element.

She told herself not to overthink, but she could not control certain things.

She picked up a fish from the basin and treated it as Luke.

Whack! Whack! She hit the fish with the rolling pin, and it went still…

She wanted to give a call to Luke, but she thought that it was beneath her dignity to do so.

If Luke was really talking business with Mavis, then her call would be an unnecessary distraction.

However, she nevertheless felt uneasy when she was reminded of Xavier's words…

    Luke finally returned home late at night. When he opened the bedroom door, he was greeted by the tranquil scene of Bianca sleeping with the two children. The two children were neatly tucked under the quilt. Bianca was dressed in a silk nightgown. Her limbs that were as fair as ivory were outside of the blanket. Her cheeks were so soft and tantalizing… Luke pinched Bianca's cheeks, which woke her up. Bianca opened her eyes groggily. She looked like a newborn fawn. Luke could feel his abdomen become tight when he saw Bianca's innocent yet alluring appearance. "You're back." Bianca rubbed her eyes. Luke hugged her and gently kissed her forehead. "I'll go take a shower. You should sleep." He tucked Bianca under the blanket and said to her as though reprimanding a child, "You're already an adult, but you still kick the blanket when you're sleeping. What if you catch a cold?" Bianca wanted to say something, but he kissed her and walked away to the bathroom. Bianca looke

    Jason dropped the children at school, then drove toward the company. Bianca sat in the back seat. The window was open, and she allowed the cold, piercing wind to blow on her face. The wind cut her delicate skin like a knife. It was painful, but it allowed her mind to be clear. Jason glanced at her and said, "The weather is cold today, Ms. Rayne. Mr. Crawford will blame me if you catch a cold." Bianca shook her head but did not reply to him. She closed her eyes. Jason was curious when he saw how languid Bianca looked. Did she have a fight with the boss? He did not think so. After being his boss's assistant for so many years, he knew how important Bianca was to Luke. Luke loved her more than anything else in the world. Why would he fight with her? … Meanwhile, in a shopping mall. Allison was dressed in a luxurious white fur coat and held two bulging shopping bags in her hand. She was at the checkout counter with two of her rich lady friends. The shopping bags were

    Bianca seemed absent-minded the entire workday. She made many mistakes, and the department lead glared at her. "What's wrong? Is something bothering your mind?" Sue and Nina had asked her. Bianca shook her head and said nothing. Some things were not meant to be shared with other people. She tried to find many reasons to convince herself to trust Luke. Eventually, she could not hold back her doubts anymore and gave Luke a call. She dialed his number several times. The response she always got was, "Sorry, the number you have dialed is not in service." Her heart sank to the bottom of the abyss… She got off work right on time and returned to the apartment. Even though she had two children by her side, Bianca felt that the family was incomplete without a certain someone. The two children ate their dinner silently. She turned on the television. On the television was a news report. The tall and well-built man in her dreams appeared on television. Rainie instantly recog

  • Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle   Chapter 266 Taking Possession of Bianca

    On the television, Mavis was dressed elegantly. Her curly hair was swept to her back, which made her look diligent and capable. Standing next to Luke, they seemed like a match made in heaven. Luke looked directly at the camera with a mature and determined gaze. He remained calm in the face of the reporter's incisive questions. "The restaurants under T Corporation have been maintaining a high standard of quality, the proof of which can be obtained from the FDA. I suspect that there is some other reason that is causing the problems faced by the Regal Chain of Restaurants. We are still investigating whether it is a natural or a man-made cause. Once the results of the investigation are out, T Corporation will host a press conference and give the public a satisfactory answer!" Bianca frowned. The Regal Chain of Restaurants under T Corporation was facing some problems about the quality of their food in Western Europe. The problem was not so much about financial loss, but rather t

    The night sky was as dark as ink, and all was silent. The two children had gone to bed a long time ago. Bianca remained in front of the computer, creating designs. Bianca was not in the mood to work, but she had no choice. Once she stopped working, all sorts of questions and doubts would fill her brain. The clock struck eleven. Bianca stared at the computer screen for a long time. The man had not given her a call. She went to the bathroom and took a shower, trying to keep herself awake. Dressed in a nightgown, she sat in the living room and tried calling Luke's number again. Bianca was afraid to hear the dreaded automated voice again. The phone rang for almost a minute, but no one picked up. Just when she was about to hang up, someone answered the call. "Hello?" It was the voice of a woman. All of a sudden, Bianca's eyes misted, and she felt her heart wrench. She tried to keep her voice calm and steady and asked, "I'm looking for Luke Crawford. Is he there?" "Oh?

    Meanwhile, Nina followed Xavier and the woman in his arms into the hotel and watched them enter the elevator. The high-class hotel prioritizes the privacy of its customers. To ensure that she could capture video evidence of Xavier's affair, she had to pretend to be a customer and pay a hefty amount of money to stay in the room next to them. When Nina went into the elevator and swiped the access card, a drunken man stumbled into the elevator at the same time. The drunkard was tall and burly. He wore a black baseball cap which obscured his face. He was heavily intoxicated, and his body fell on Nina. Nina was livid and kicked him away. "Ding!" The elevator arrived at Nina's floor. Nina quickly stepped out of the elevator, but the drunkard grabbed onto the hem of her shirt and did not let her go. He kept calling her "Hey, chick," and tried to fondle her breasts. Nina was about to blow her top because of the drunkard's antics. In a fit of rage, she hooked the drunkard's elbow

    The suspicion in Bianca's heart grew stronger as she neared the room… Her heart was beating faster and faster, though she forced herself to be calm. She knocked the door twice out of courtesy, and she heard a low and familiar male voice coming from inside. "Come in." She pushed open the door and smelled a strong scent of cigarettes which made her even more nervous. Looking around the room, she did not see Nina inside. Just when she was about to turn around and leave, a hand pulled her into the room from behind, and the door closed with a bang. Alarm bells rang in Bianca's heart when she saw Xavier! She did not know what was going on. "Did you send the message using Bianca's phone, Xavier? What do you want?" She asked angrily. Xavier cackled ominously. He gripped Bianca's chin and wanted to force a kiss on her. Bianca was not going to yield. She reflexively slapped him, but he caught her wrist in time. Xavier appreciated Bianca's body with his eyes. He kneaded her fair

    Bianca was trembling with rage. She tried her best to suppress her feelings and managed to calm herself down. "Don't involve other people in our matters, Xavier. Nina is innocent. I hope that you can let her go." Bianca forced herself to be calm, but she found that she could not be calm at all. Xavier stubbed out his cigarette and looked into her eyes. "That'll be easy, Bianca. I don't want the divorce." "Xavier Tanner, you despicable man!" Bianca wanted to tear him into a thousand pieces. "It's not like you don't know me. I'm willing to do anything as long as I achieve my ends!" Xavier was not embarrassed by Bianca's reproach. Instead, that piqued his interest. "The man in the video is Pierre Mallory, the Second Young Master of the Mallory family. You should have heard about the Mallory family, right? Pierre is a vicious one. He always repays his grudges no matter how small they may be. If you're lucky, you might survive after losing a hand or a foot. If you're not, you'll b

    After Hera got into the car, Abel turned around. His piercing blue eyes locked onto Luca.“When will the test results be ready?” asked Abel. His primary concern was the results.Luca replied, “It won’t be that fast. She did quite a few tests, so it might take until tomorrow or the day after. But the hospital assured me that as soon as the results are in, they’ll give me a detailed report right away.”Abel looked a little unhappy. “Didn’t I tell you to choose the VIP package?”“Mr. Abel, even with the VIP package, the results won’t be immediate. Getting them by tomorrow is already considered fast,” explained Luca.Abel let out a cold snort.Just then, the car window rolled down.“Baby, I’m still upset.” Hera’s voice dripped with sweetness.Abel turned around, his previously cold expression instantly replaced with warmth and tenderness. “What will make you feel better?”Hera thought for a moment. “How about this? Let her follow me around today and carry my shopping bags. That mi

    “You!” Hera was clearly caught off guard that the driver had the nerve to talk back to her.She yanked off her sunglasses, just about ready to snap back at him when the driver got a good look at her through the rearview mirror.“Oh, it’s you?” said the driver.“Who the hell are you? Do I know you?” Hera’s tone was arrogant as though she was naturally above him.The driver reminded her, “Remember yesterday? You had me tail a cab and park outside some ancestral hall for half the day, and you refused to leave. I wasted a ton of gas just idling there with the A/C on because of you.”Hera’s face turned red, then pale. She did not expect Luca to randomly call a cab and end up with the same driver from yesterday.Luca also found it a funny coincidence and glanced back. Hera’s expression was awful.The driver, being a straight shooter, did not hold back. “Huh. Funny how you didn’t complain about my car smelling bad yesterday, but today, all of a sudden, it stinks? After I dropped you of

    Luca also reminded Luke to tell the kids not to contact her during this period. The device could not be removed. If it was, Abel would definitely notice. Rather than making him suspicious or prompting him to install even better devices, it was better to just leave this one in place.Luke quickly replied: [Got it.]Luca put on a faint smile and began narrowing down the search, trying to figure out where that man had installed the device.If it was just for listening, she did not care. It could stay. However, if it was a surveillance camera, she needed to be more cautious. In the end, she found the device under the bed.She did not bother checking whether it was for listening or monitoring. After all, if it was placed there, the only possibility was that it was an audio bug. A camera in that spot would not capture anything useful.Anyone trained on the Island of Despair would not make such a rookie mistake.After a quick wash-up, Luca went to bed.The next morning, she receive

    “Babe, don’t listen to her nonsense. She’s just trying to drive a wedge between us,” Hera said gently, hoping to earn Abel's affection.Abel did not take Hera’s words seriously. Instead, he picked up his phone and made a few inquiries.After checking with multiple sources to confirm where Lucius and the others had gone, the person on the other end of the line reported that Lucius had not left home in the past few days.As Luca listened to the voice on the other end of the phone, her expression remained calm.Gerald let out a sigh of relief but was also puzzled. He had always felt there was something going on between Lucius and Luca, yet unexpectedly, Luca’s outing this time had nothing to do with Lucius.Hera’s face turned pale. So, it really was not because of him.In that case, she…Hera instinctively looked at Abel, only to find that he was already staring at her. Their eyes met, and Hera could not help but shudder. Abel’s gaze was terrifyingly cold.Just when she thought he

    “Oh? What made you so happy? Spill the tea.” Hera’s curiosity grew. Whatever it was that had Abel smiling like this had to be something big.The last time she was with him, he had closed a billion-dollar deal over the phone, but his expression had remained indifferent. It was like it was just another ordinary day at the office.However, he was currently grinning from ear to ear. Could it be something even bigger than that?Abel set down his unlit cigar. His fingers lightly traced along Hera’s cheek before resting on her eyes.“Your eyes… They’re beautiful,” murmured Abel.It was not the first time he had complimented her eyes.Hera had gone for the perfect foxy-type eyes, and every man she met would gush over how stunning they were.However, Abel was different. Other men would say her eyes were beautiful and then follow it up with praise for her face, her figure… The whole package.Yet Abel? He never mentioned anything else but just her eyes. It was as if her face and other par

    “Alright. Ouch, it hurts when you flick me, Lanie!” Tommy pouted.“Don't cry. You were just saying you’d protect your sister, and now, you’re crying? What’s going on?” Lanie rubbed Tommy’s forehead. “Alright, I’ve rubbed it. Stop crying.”“Heh, Lanie, you're the best to me!” Tommy immediately beamed with happiness.“The whole grandma situation is over. From now on, let’s just behave ourselves and wait for Daddy and Ms. Luca to come back,” Lanie told his younger siblings.Even though their parents were not around, he had taken on the responsibility of being the elder brother. Despite being the same age as Rainie, he was much more mature.“Yes, I’ll listen to Great-Grandpa and you, Lanie!” Tommy nodded eagerly.…After Jason hung up on Allison, he let out a deep sigh.Sue walked over with a plate of fruits and placed it beside him. “What’s with that look? Have some fruits.”Jason picked up a toothpick, speared a piece of fruit, and brought it to her mouth.Sue opened her mouth

    “Good evening, Madam Allison.” Jason quickly answered the phone.Allison wasted no time and demanded, “Why did you only send me such a small amount of money?”“It’s Mr. Crawford’s decision,” replied Jason, “If you suspect I’m withholding anything, you may ask him directly…”He reckoned that Allison might not be able to get in touch with Luke, so he added, “Or I could show you the chat records.”By now, Allison could not really doubt him anymore.However, with frustration in her voice, Allison asked, “Why is it so little? How am I supposed to live in A City on this?”“Mr. Crawford said that you have no extra expenses. You’re not shopping, so a hundred thousand dollars should be enough,” Jason relayed Luke’s words.A hundred thousand dollars was an amount that the average working family could not even earn in a month.Allison could not go out shopping right now, and she was not making any other extra purchases while staying at home every day. Why would it not be enough?Sophian, who over

    “She's busy, so use something else. I’ve got stuff to do. I’m hanging up now.” Luke did not want to hear her rambling.Allison quickly added, “Wait, there's one more thing.”Luke frowned in annoyance.“I don’t have any money left. Send me some,” continued Allison. She was worried he might refuse. “It’s been over a month, and you still haven’t sent me my living expenses.”“Don’t worry, Jason will transfer it to you in a bit,” replied Luke. It had indeed been a month. However, he had been too busy to remember.“Alright.” Allison was about to say more when Sophian called out sweetly, “Mr. Crawford…”Before she could finish her sentence, Luke hung up the phone.Allison stared at Sophian. “What did you say that for?”Sophian was confused. She had only said a word, and the call was already disconnected. Was it her fault?“I just wanted to talk to him…” replied Sophian.“You didn’t have to say anything.
