Chapter 680 A Qualified Mother

Author: Heap Heap
Old Master Crawford was lying on a lounge chair in the garden of Crawford Manor. Next to him was a cup of fine tea.

The old man loved his tea.

When Bianca came into the garden, she noticed that Old Master Crawford seemed listless.

His face was beset with wrinkles, and his gaze was hollow and forlorn as he stared at the plants.

Ever since he found out that Luke was killed, his body, which had not been in good shape, deteriorated rapidly like a wilted plant.

"Were you looking for me, Grandpa?" Bianca walked behind Old Master Crawford and gently massaged his neck and shoulders.

Old Master Crawford turned his head to look at his granddaughter-in-law and smiled lovingly. "I'm glad that you're here, Bea. I want to ask you about the latest happenings in the company, and also… have you found another significant other yet?"

He knew that Bianca was a very capable woman who single-handedly took on the responsibility of bringing T Corporation out of a financial crisis two years ago.

    Leia's words were as shocking as a sudden clap of thunder next to Bianca's ears! She rushed up to Leia, grabbed her collar, and asked her sternly, "What did you say? Tell me, how did Luke die? Tell me now!" Leia sobered up a little and realized what she had just said. Trying to compose herself, she smiled mockingly at Bianca. "Why do I have to tell you? I'm not telling you. What are you going to do, kill me?" Leia had been jealous and resentful toward the Norman family's long-lost birth daughter. If not for Bianca, Leia would still be the only pampered daughter of the Norman family! With her status, marrying Luke Crawford was all but a certainty! That woman had taken away her parent's love for her and the man that she loved. She did not expect that Luke died in a foreign country, and his remains could not be found. He deserved that! Leia glared contemptuously at Bianca. She reached out and tried to claw at Bianca's delicate face with her sharp nails. "Let go of me, you

    Luke had always loved sunsets. Before he took over T Corporation, he traveled the world in search of the most breathtaking sunsets. He had been to the summit of Mount Everest, the vast grasslands of Hulun Buir, and on top of the golden dunes of the Taklamakan Desert. He loved watching the sunset because the dawn that followed signified a new hope. The sunset on the island was not as beautiful as those other places. In fact, by viewing it with a despondent mood, the sunset there was suffused with the solemnity of death. While Luke was lost in thought while viewing the sunset, Kassy appeared behind him. She looked into Luke's forlorn gray-brown eyes transfixed at the roiling waves and the setting sun. "You're sitting here again." Kassy walked up to him and draped a jacket over Luke's body. Luke did not look at her. His gaze was clear and gentle with a hint of anger. Kassy did not care that he was cold toward her. In the two years they had interacted, Kassy had a rud

    Late at night. Leia was curled up on her bed, unable to fall asleep. The only thing in her mind was the torment that Wayne had inflicted on her. She would shudder involuntarily every time she thought of what the man did to her. She stretched herself out and stared wide-eyed at the ceiling above her. She did not feel like sleeping at all. Suddenly, a faint fragrance filled her room. Her eyelids began to droop when she caught a whiff of the fragrance. When she could not open her eyes anymore, right at the moment she fell asleep, the fragrance suddenly became a horrible stink, and the air was filled with the thick stench of blood. Thud, thud, thud… A heavy set of footsteps trudged closer to Leia's room. She could also hear a child wailing faintly in the distance, as well as the chilling laughter of men and women. Goosebumps rose on Leia's skin. She abruptly opened her eyes. With shaking hands, she tried to turn on the night light. However, the light did not turn on. '…

    Leia had always felt hatred and disgust for Wayne. The man had ravaged her for two years. It was like a nightmare. Leia was more than willing to tell Bianca the truth if she would help her get rid of that man. Even though Luke was killed a long time ago, Bianca could not maintain her composure when she heard It from Leia's mouth. She grabbed Leia's collar tightly and asked viciously, "Why did Wayne Blatt kill Luke? Is it because of you?" Leia was gloating when she saw the crazed glint in Bianca's eyes. "How would I know why? I'm not that freak. All I know is that I'm so happy seeing how helpless and agonized you are. Karma sure hits you hard…" Suddenly, her eyes were attracted by a flash of light. It was the light reflected from the dressing mirror. She turned to look at the reflection of the two women. Leia and Bianca both had delicate facial features. Their looks were similar. However, Bianca's features were more pronounced. Her face was the textbook definition of "beau

    Madame Rose was not intimidated by Luke because she thought that she had the advantage in numbers. She did not expect that Luke would be brazen enough to take her as a hostage. "Let go of him, Matthew! Otherwise, none of you will survive!" Kassy pointed her gun at Luke's head. Her hand was shaking. Evidently, she was conflicted. She knew of Madame Rose's cruelty better than anyone else. Luke and his followers might be formidable, but they were already seriously injured, and they were not going to be able to successfully escape the heavily-defended island. "If I'm not going to survive this, I don't mind taking all of you down with me!" Luke said coldly. "Heh, you ignorant brat, you won't leave here alive even if you kill me," Madame Rose said brazenly. "If that's the case, all of you can die!" Luke smirked coldly and tightened his vice-like grip on Madame Rose's neck. Her eyes were beginning to glaze over. Madame Rose coughed, and her face turned red. Even so, she yell

    Bianca clutched her chest, feeling as though it had been sliced apart by a poisoned knife. She was about to pass out from the pain. She felt a slight relief from the pain in her chest after a few minutes. 'What's going on?' She was confused, but soon she remembered that she felt a similar pain on the day she found out that Luke went missing. She could not linger on that moment for long. When Jack and Queenie noticed that Bianca was there, they beckoned lovingly at her and got her to taste the dishes. "I made some soup for you, Bea. Your mom said that you like light foods, so I didn't put much salt in the soup. Have a taste. What do you think?" Jack said kindly and ladled a small bowl of soup for Bianca. Bianca took a sip. "How is it?" Jack looked at her daughter expectantly. Bianca finished the bowl of soup and said gratefully, "The soup tastes good, Dad. I love it." Being able to eat Mom's cooking and Dad's soup made her feel blissful. She began to feel guilty abou

    The Mallory residence. Percy sat by the dining table. He was young and handsome, and his beauty was breathtaking. He watched Bianca as she quietly fed Tommy. Bianca was dressed in a black suit, and her hair was tied in a ponytail. Her face was clean and pure. Percy thought that the woman had become more feminine, perhaps because she had an extra motherly charm on her. He could not resist staring at her. Percy was the one to break the silence. "Ms. Rayne, there are two reasons for inviting you to my house. The first is to send you off, and the second is to give you several pointers about Russia. I'm sorry about what happened to Luke. I didn't expect that to happen. "I found out that Luke's accident was related to the Russian mafia, but the exact reason remains unknown. This will be a risky trip. I'll assign some more bodyguards to protect you." While Bianca fed Tommy a bottle of milk, she said softly, "Thank you, Mr. Mallory. You don't have to apologize to me about Luke.

    Marbella Village. The chilly ocean breeze drifted through the window into a run-down fishing boat and woke the man who was in a deep sleep. Luke abruptly sat up, the sound of waves washing onto the shore echoing in his ears. He was startled, his eyes quickly scanned through the room. He realized that he was in a fishing boat. The room was old but it was neat and clean. He was lying on a queen-sized wooden bed with a thin quilt covering his body. Luke thought of getting out of bed but when he tried, he felt a sharp pain in his chest and left arm. Luke frowned and found that there were layers of bandages wrapped around his chest and arm. The bandages smelled like blood and medicine. He remembered that he was badly injured. The moment the plane exploded, he, Gale, and Rain had jumped out of the cabin and into the sea. ‘Where did the two of them go? Who on earth saved me and bandaged my wounds?’ Just as he was about to get out of bed and check h

    “You don’t need to remind me. I was going to check anyway.” Abel shot Luca a chilling look.She took a step back and stayed silent.Abel turned to the pale-faced Hera and said, “If you’ve got low blood sugar, get up and eat something.”“I’ll eat now,” Hera replied, sitting up.Luca handed her the takeout.Abel glanced at the food and then frowned at Luca. “Why didn’t you make breakfast this morning?”“I was busy,” Luca explained with a calm indifference, her expression unwavering. She showed no fear, even under Abel’s questioning.Hera suddenly found herself admiring Luca. Everyone feared this man, yet Luca remained composed even when facing potential punishment. Not just anyone could pull that off.At the thought of this, Hera opened the takeout and kept quiet.Abel narrowed his eyes, glancing between Hera and Luca. His gaze was not exactly gentle as he muttered, “Stop eating this junk. It’s bad for you.”“I know, babe. Just this once. After this, I’ll have what Luca cooks f

    Hera panicked the moment she heard that. “I trust her!”Luca and Shanks were both watching her.Hera repeated herself, saying, “I trust her, okay? What kind of treatment does she need? I’ll cooperate with anything. But what about Abel…”“I’ll tell him it’s just to help improve your overall health,” replied Shanks. Then, he turned around, opened the medicine cabinet, and started preparing the prescription.Hera let out a sigh of relief. As long as Abel did not find out about her health condition, that was all that mattered.If he knew she was unwell, he would send her back to A City. Without free medical help and no way to make extra money, she would be in serious trouble.“Thank you,” said Hera.“Wait outside,” instructed Shanks.“Okay.” Hera carefully stepped out.Luca, however, remained where she was, waiting.While preparing the medicine, Shanks asked, “Do you know which acupoints to target for her?”“Yes,” Luca replied confidently. As long as she checked Hera’s pulse, sh

    “There are a lot of issues.” Luca did not hide anything and handed Hera the phone.Hera looked at it and frowned.“I can't understand any of this.” Hera felt dizzy just looking at the text, let alone the long list of medical terms. It was giving her a headache.“Look at these summaries and indicators. Compare the values on top with the normal values at the bottom, and you'll see what I mean,” explained Luca.Hera did not trust her. Therefore, Luca decided to let her see for herself. Seeing it with her own eyes would prevent any doubts later.Luca pointed out how to read the test results, and after a moment, Hera managed to understand the report. Her face turned pale. “How can there be so many problems?”She looked at Luca and questioned, “Did you fake this?”“I don’t have the power to make the medical center fake anything. Besides, the report has the medical center’s official stamp. If you don’t believe me, you can go directly to the medical center and ask for the official cop

    “I heard from the boss that he's coming because of Vivian.” Gale paused for a moment before adding, “But never mind, you don't seem interested in her affairs anyway. I'm just letting you know he's on his way.”Gordan frowned. Ray was coming for Vivian?What could that ugly woman possibly need?“What do you mean by that?” asked Gordan.Gale smirked. “If you and Ray meet, that’s bound to end in a fight. And since you can't win against him, you might want to mentally prepare yourself, or better yet, find somewhere else to stay. It’d be safer that way.”Gordan's expression darkened. “If you have nothing nice to say, just zip it.”Gale grinned, clearly pleased with himself like he had just hit a sore spot.Gordan exhaled sharply. “Of all times, why is he coming to A City now? He’s just making things worse.”“It can't be helped. Vivian's situation is urgent.” Gale covered his mouth mockingly after he said that. “Oh, right. I forgot you don’t like hearing about her.”Ray wanted to br

    Luke sat in the villa, staring at Luca’s message.He was worried.For a moment, he considered calling her, but then he remembered that there were surveillance cameras everywhere on her side. He dismissed the idea immediately.Her safety came first.Luke reminded her: [Take care of yourself. Don’t worry, I’ll handle everything. Just focus on keeping yourself safe.] The worry in his heart refused to subside, but at this moment, there was no better solution.“Boss, you’re worried about your wife, huh? If you really can’t stand it, we can sneak you in again during the next shift change, just like last time,” said Gale.It had been his idea last time.Now, the real Lucius was still locked up in the basement of the villa.It had been nearly a month. Luke had forced him to take the antidote Luca had recreated. The man was still alive, proving the antidote worked perfectly.“That plan is too risky.” Luke put his phone away. His gaze was dark and thoughtful.“Risky, sure. But at lea

    Luca had not expected Abel and Shanks’ relationship to be like this.It seemed Abel still did not trust Shanks.Shanks continued, “Abel isn’t someone who trusts people easily. He doesn’t trust anyone. You think he’s devoted to Kassy now, right? That’s just his obsession. He's allowing Kassy to receive my treatment, but if it were him… No matter if he were blind or crippled, his safety would always come first. If he were seriously injured, maybe he’d accept treatment, but he definitely wouldn’t do it right away.”Luca stayed silent. Shanks really understood Abel well.Abel did not trust anyone—not even Kassy.Calling him paranoid would not be an exaggeration.Luca felt like they were getting off-topic, but she had never seen this side of Shanks before.In her mind, he was always buried in his work at the lab, only leaving for meals and sleep. Other than that, he was practically never outside.The lab was like his home…“Are you troubled by Hera’s situation?” Luca asked directly

    Hera was startled by Luca's words.The refusal that had been on the tip of her tongue suddenly got stuck in her throat.“I…” Hera hesitated, feeling conflicted. Leaving Abel might not be such a bad idea. At least she would not have to live in constant fear.She was finally realizing how unpredictable his moods were. At first, she thought it did not matter as she could still look at other men. She just had to ensure there was no physical contact. In reality, even if she so much as glanced at someone, Abel's expression would darken with anger.It was frustrating. Now, the only person she was allowed to look at was Gerald. Still, what was the point of just looking at Gerald?At that thought, she lifted her gaze to Luca.Luca added, “I’ll give you five minutes. If you refuse treatment after that, I’ll take the medicine back to Mr. Shanks and won’t try to convince you again.”Hera's heart tightened. She did not even need five minutes. She had made her decision within 30 seconds.“I’

    “If Abel finds out that Hera's body isn't suitable for organ donation to Kassy, what do you think he'll do?” asked Shanks.He already knew the answer, but he still wanted to hear Luca’s thoughts.“He has invested a lot of time and money in Hera. If he gets nothing out of it, he won’t let her off easily,” Luca said bluntly.Luca and Shanks were on the same page.They did not have a good relationship with Hera, but they had no intention of ruining her either.Hera’s personality was unpleasant, but that was not enough for them to hate her so much that they wanted to see her suffer.“What methods do you think he’ll use?” Shanks asked again.Luca was silent for a long moment.Shanks already knew the answer, yet he still wanted her to say it out loud.After thinking it over, she finally said, “There are plenty of ways he could go about it, but no matter what he chooses, Hera’s fate is sealed. She’s as good as dead…”She lowered her gaze, her tone firm and certain.Shanks nodded.

    Hera heard that Luca had returned and immediately went to find Shanks. She narrowed her eyes.That woman went to see Shanks. Could she be talking about her?The thought made Hera uneasy. She had a nagging feeling that something was wrong with her medical report.However, when they left the medical center earlier, Abel asked Luca when the report would be ready, and she said it would be available tomorrow.Hera turned to Gerald and said, “Take these back for me first.”“Alright.” Gerald carried the bags as he walked away. He could not help but wonder what exactly Hera bought. These bags were really heavy!Only after Gerald went upstairs did Hera slowly make her way up as well. Her room was on the third floor, but she stopped when she reached the second floor. She glanced around to make sure no one was watching before heading toward the laboratory.The door was closed.Instead of knocking, Hera pressed her ear against it, trying to eavesdrop.However, the laboratory was special
