Allison glanced at Bianca with disgust, walking into the living room, and tossed the expensive LV handbag on the couch as though she was in her own house. Her gaze swept over the living room like a radar. She did not see Luke anywhere. Then, she went into the bathroom to search for clues. Bianca stepped unhappily in front of her. "What are you doing here? What do you want?" Allison saw a pair of men's slippers and two child-sized slippers next to the shower. She almost blew her top! She pointed at Bianca's face and started to yell. "Is it fun being a seductress? How shameless can you be, Bianca? You're now Xavier's wife, so what are you doing with my son? Not only have you taken hold of him, but you're also not showing my grandchildren any mercy! I was wondering why I haven't seen Luke and my two good grandchildren in the house. So they're with you. Is there any other woman in this world that's as shameless as you?" Bianca was trembling after hearing Allison's harsh words.
Allison took a deep breath. She did not want to throw a tantrum in front of her grandchildren. "Don't be deceived by this woman, my babies. She's a wicked woman, a seductress with a black heart. Be good children and follow your Grandma home. Your Great-Grandpa misses you…" Bianca could feel her heart being torn into pieces. Allison had said that about her in front of her children. She was about to speak when Lanie suddenly turned around. "You've become prettier, Grandma. I hope that you won't be angry or lose your temper. My teacher said that you'll be ugly if you're always angry. I hope that you'll be forever pretty, Grandma," Rainie said as she diligently massaged Allison's legs. Allison laughed when she heard Rainie's words. She enjoyed the special treatment, and her tone of voice became gentler. "You're such a charmer. Have you been eating sweets?" Rainie counted on her cute little fingers. "One, two three… hmm, I can't remember how many sweets I've eaten, but it was a lo
"P… Please give us another chance to correct ourselves, Mr. Crawford! We promise that it won't ever happen again!" Cold sweat poured from Mr. Smith's forehead when Luke glared at him. He hoped that Luke would give him another chance. However, Mr. Robel's eyes flashed with disdain. He was a nationalistic man, and he did not believe that the foreigner would do anything drastic to them! Moreover, not only was he the general manager, but he was also the head chef. His culinary skills were top-notch. Regal would stand to lose a lot without him! Out of everyone's expectations, Luke said, "I apologize, Mr. Robel, but Regal has no further need for your services. You can clear your desk and leave." "What? I've toiled for Regal for the past three years, and this is what I get? How dare you fire me, you filthy foreigner?" Mr. Robel was livid. He stood up abruptly, slammed the conference table, and swore at Luke. The other members of the higher management dared not speak a word. 'W
On the other side of the world, Leia found Xavier in the bar. He was drunk, and she dragged him away from the pile of drunkards. "What's wrong with you? I thought that you have a certain way with women? Has it all gone to the dogs? You can't even handle just one Bianca!" Leia snatched Xavier's wine glass and tossed it carelessly on the floor. Xavier's eyes flashed with hostility. "Get lost! You don't have to interfere with my personal business!" Leia was dumbfounded. As Jack Norman's daughter, no one had dared to speak to her with that tone. She wanted to teach Xavier a lesson, but she remembered the reason she was there. "I'm not here to pick a fight with you, Xavier. You love Bianca, right? Why aren't you out there pursuing her, but instead drinking your brains away?" Earlier, Allison had given her a call and invited her to go shopping together. Leia agreed to the invitation because she wanted to gain Allison's favor. Unexpectedly, Allison complained to her that Bianca
Half an hour later, Bianca appeared in Room 6617 of Yale Hotel. When Xavier opened the door, he saw Bianca drenched to the bone. Her black hair was scattered, and she was as pale as a ghost. The expression on her face was utter despair. "I'm here. Can you let go of Nina now?" Xavier was stunned for a moment. He violently dragged Bianca into his embrace without a care for her freezing cold skin. His index fingers stroked her lips, and his eyes gazed piercingly at her. "Indeed, I was right. My wife is a loyal woman." Bianca's eyes flashed vengefully. "I'm here. Let Nina go!" "There's no rush." Xavier pinched her chin with his fingers, and his eyes took in Bianca's soaking-wet body. "I can't bear to see you cold and shivering. Be a good girl and go take a shower." Bianca walked to the bathroom like a doll without a soul, then obediently took a shower. She stepped out of the bathroom dressed only in a bathrobe. She repeated the same sentence. "Let Nina go." Wet long hair fe
Countless bruises dotted Bianca's arms. Flecks of dried blood crusted on the corners of her lips. The camera on the table was recording the scene on the bed… Luke's devastating anger was unstoppable! He kicked Xavier onto the floor and smashed the camera into bits! Xavier was dazed from the kick. Before he could retaliate, Luke picked him up from the floor and tossed him toward the wall like a piece of trash. His bones struck the wall. Judging from the sounds alone, it was incredibly painful! "How dare you touch her, Xavier?" Luke's hellish voice carried an obvious murderous intent. Jason and Bianca shuddered when they heard that. Bianca huddled her knees in a corner, forcing her tearful eyes to stay open. She was shivering from fright and from trying to fight the effects of the drug. Luke noticed Bianca's unnaturally red face. He knew that she had been drugged. Instead of bringing her away, he looked at her coldly. He was frustrated about the woman's silliness; she h
Luke walked toward the parking lot with Bianca in his arms. She lay there limply, wrapped up in Luke's windbreaker with only her head peeking out. Through the opening of the windbreaker, she could see Luke's divine facial features shrouded by an aura of hostility. It was colder than the piercing wind outside, and it made her teeth chatter. Bianca's face remained unnaturally red. She writhed uncomfortably in his arms. "Luke…" She sounded as though she was crying. She had pretended to be strong earlier, but the pretense was all but gone. Bianca did not know why she cried when she saw him, but she could not control her emotions. Her insides were burning, forming a stark contrast with the chilly weather outside. Luke's unpleasant expression made Bianca uneasy and aggrieved… He continued walking forward as he held her tightly, though he had never once lowered her head to look at her. Bianca could feel that his anger was mounting. They reached the car, and Jason carried her
Luke stepped out of the elevator and walked toward the extravagant suite. The retinal scanner identified Luke, and the custom-made intricate lock opened with a click. "Let me go, Luke…" Bianca's hoarse voice sounded seductive because of the drug's effects. She felt even worse than before, trying very hard to suppress the urge to pounce on him and forcing herself to remain sane. Luke's mouth leaned closer to Bianca's earlobe. His sinister smile grew wider. "Then you'll have to see if I'm willing to let you go." Luke carried Bianca's writhing body to a cavernous room. Countless small lights lit up automatically. They stretched from the wall up to the highest point of the dome. Soft silver light illuminated the room. What was most surprising was that the dome was made of glass. Through the thick glass panels, they could see the beautiful stars in the night sky. The moon was like a mirror, shining brightly in the night sky, adorned by innumerable stars of different sizes an
