The emcees noticed that Lanie and Ranie Crawford were first prize winners. Especially the brother, who had won six first prizes by himself. They invited their mother to come on stage for an interview, hoping that she would share her thoughts on raising her kids. Bianca walked up the stage. Everyone exclaimed when they saw that Bianca was pregnant. She seemed too young to be a mother. From her face, she looked like a college graduate and not like the mother of two, no, three children. The female emcee helped Bianca get on stage and brought her microphone in front of Bianca. "Good day to you, Madam Rayne. You are Blanche Crawford and Rainie Crawford's mother. You must've taught them well so that they could win so many awards. Can you share your thoughts and experiences with the parents here? Also, do you have any hopes for your children's future?" Queenie furrowed her brows when she saw Bianca. She still could not forgive Bianca and Luke for hurting Leia. However, she fel
Birth mother? Bianca's heart was in her throat. She looked at Luke excitedly. "Do you mean my birth mother is also in A City? Have you… found her?" Bianca knew that Allison was not her birth mother, and a DNA test had proven that she and Luke were not siblings. It was pure agony when Allison had lied to her that she was Luke's sister. Now that the misunderstanding was resolved, she did not have to experience that mental torment anymore. However, she wished that she could find her real birth mother and desired to be loved as a daughter. She did not tell that to anyone. Luke's gaze was profound and confident as he stared at Bianca. "I have indeed found your birth mother. You've also met her more than once." The man's slender fingers caressed Bianca's petite face, and he noticed the anticipation and excitement in her eyes. His deep eyes did not show any obvious emotion, but Bianca could sense his hesitation. Indeed, Luke was hesitating. Once Bianca knew who her birth mot
Allison was unhappy when she thought of the possibility that her son had registered his marriage with Bianca without informing Old Master Crawford. However, she felt slightly more relieved when she remembered that Old Master Crawford had kept Luke's driver's license in a secure place. Old Master Crawford had been prejudiced against Bianca ever since she rejected Luke's proposal. He would not allow his grandson to marry Bianca! Luke walked with Bianca over to the couch and sat down. "Grandfather," he greeted Old Master Crawford. "Mm," Old Master Crawford replied. The harsh lines on his face became gentle when he glanced at Bianca's bulging stomach. "The stomach is already so big. Did the doctor say when's the expected date of delivery?" Luke held Bianca's hand and said gently, "The expected delivery date is October 26th." "That's coming soon. Don't let her go to work, and get her to stay at home and rest. She shouldn't overwork herself; there's not much money to be made anyw
There was dead silence in the villa. Old Master Crawford was frowning while keeping quiet. He knew in his heart that it was pointless to hide Luke’s driver's license. If Luke insisted on obtaining a marriage license with Bianca, he would find a way to get his driver's license. He had always wanted an arranged marriage for Luke, just like he did with Zachary. Old Master Crawford believed in business interests rather than true love. However, Old Master Crawford was acutely aware that Luke was not like his cowardly father. He was strong and assertive, not at all as easy to control. Moreover, his grandson was king of the corporate world. Meanwhile, Old Master Crawford was getting weaker as time passed. Old Master Crawford eventually warmed up to the idea. He believed that Luke would be more responsible after he married Bianca. Luke and Bianca had three children together, so if he continued to object, that would only lead his grandson to rebel! Given the s
At home, in the bedroom. The light-colored curtains were blowing in the night breeze, and the temperature tonight was a bit cooler. Bianca looked at Luke who was smoking on the balcony with a frown. Since she got pregnant, he had quit smoking at home.Bianca knew that he must be in a bad mood. She quietly walked over, grabbed the half-burned cigarette from his hand, and pinched it out in the ashtray. She looked at him accusingly before putting her arms around his waist. "You promised me that you’d quit. You broke your promise." Luke’s eyes were dark, and he hid the complex emotions he was feeling. He took off his coat and put it on Bianca, saying slowly, "Sorry, I was a little out of control today. I promise it won’t happen again." Bianca wanted to ask him about his private conversation with Allison earlier in the day as she was not sure what led to the tension between them. However, she kept her questions to herself when she noticed Luke’s
Leia drove a convertible sports car. The night breeze brushed across her face as she drove to a nightclub. Julie followed her cautiously. She kept a safe distance with the car in front, ensuring that she would not lose Leia while also staying hidden from the woman’s sight. Julie was very grateful for the limited edition sports car that Queenie gave her. Otherwise, she would not be able to keep up with Leia's speeding. Leia parked the car at the club. She threw her keys to the jockey, put on her sunglasses, and walked inside. Julie was afraid of losing Leia, so she left her keys with the jockey as well before hurrying to catch up with her... Leia arrived at an extremely luxurious VIP room. At the entrance of the room, two men in black stood guard. The door opened, and Julie, who was hiding in the corner, saw more than 20 men and women inside. It was unsightly. On the crystal table, there were blocks of well-packaged white powder. Se
The next day, T Corporation. It was lunchtime. Bianca and her colleagues went to a restaurant for lunch. The restaurant was on the second floor. Through the large transparent glass windows, she could get a bird's eye view of the beautiful scenery outside. Bianca ordered fish and chips with a salad and tomato soup on the side. She sat at the table in front of the window with Sue, Nina, and Julie. She began eating. Bianca no longer suffered from morning sickness so her appetite had increased as well. On the other hand, Sue was more than eight months along and almost vomited whatever she ate. "Bea, why is your appetite so good? Why can't I eat anything?" Sue was envious of Bianca's appetite. She put her hands on her cheeks and watched Bianca eagerly eat her fish and chips. Sue went for vegan food, and there was not a trace of meat in front of her. "Sue, is the baby in your stomach a picky eater? Would you like to eat some chili to suppress it?"
Luke's eyes followed the Lamborghini as it drove off. A hint of ferocity flashed across his deep eyes. When he learned that there was a man named Anand outside the office building who brought flowers to confess his feelings to Bianca, he immediately hurried over. He did not expect to be so infuriated with what he saw and decided to look into Anand. "You’re the mother of three yet you’re still so popular. Do you think I should hide you somewhere?" Luke's low voice was attractive but it was clear that there was a hint of complaint in what he said. Bianca explained, "There’s nothing going on between Anand and me. I don’t know what’s going on. I’m not even that close with him. We met a few times because of work and barely interacted. I didn't expect him to do this..." Having said that, Bianca looked at Luke's stern but handsome face again, saying softly, "I don’t know what’s wrong with Anand. I’ve told him that I have a husband..." "Silly, I don’t need an expl
