As Luke looked at Bianca curled up pathetically on the floor, the pain that came from within him was like a metal claw that tore his innards into shreds. At that moment, his blood turned into ice, and every single last cell in his body hummed and buzzed. Kassy's face turned as pale as a ghost when she saw Luke. She understood that the delay had caused her to miss the only chance she could kill that woman and her children. Luke slowly crouched down and hugged Bianca. "All of you… how dare you harm my wife and children!" His voice was cold, but one could sense the anger in it. The biting chill and ferocious anger in his voice caused Kassy and the thugs to take one step back subconsciously. Luke's people had surrounded them and pointed guns at their heads. They dared not make a sound. As Luke glanced at them, they dared not meet his eyes. The sharp-faced thug who had perverse thoughts about Bianca almost wet his pants. His fingers slipped, and his gun fell on the floor.
Bianca's field of vision was blurry, though her eyes eventually focused on Luke's handsome face. She would have thought that she was still dreaming, if not that she could clearly feel the intense warmth of Luke's body. She opened her cracked lips and said hoarsely, "L… Luke." Luke pressed his lips together and replied to her softly, "Good girl, I'm here." He tried to hold back the agony in his heart. Suddenly, Bianca began to struggle in his arms. Then, she clenched her fists, and punches landed on Luke's body like raindrops! "Why did you only come now? Don't you know how afraid I was? If you had come one second later, the children and I would be gone forever… Don't you know, I broke down when I saw them injecting our children with drugs… I kept on calling your name, but you did not appear. I was in despair!" Her eyes were bloodshot as she punched and kicked Luke with all her might. Everyone was shocked by that scene. They knew that Luke was the Cold-Faced Devil and w
Bianca pointed at the leader of the thugs and whispered into Luke's ear, "I wasn't violated, Luke. The man they call 'Blackhook' told me to put up an act with him. He was also the one who swapped the drugs that they inject into our children. Can you… spare his life?" Luke furrowed his brows. He glanced at Bianca's pale face, then at the tanned and impassive leader of the thugs. He hesitated for a second before ordering Gale and Rain, "Spare the man named Blackhook. Kill everyone else!" Gale nodded, and a perverse smile appeared on his young face. "Don't worry, Mr. Crawford. I'll let them experience a fate worse than death!" Gale and Rain grew up on the Island of Despair. They had vivid memories of the cruel methods of punishment there. Luke continued to walk out of the factory with Bianca in his arms, casting a proud and invulnerable shadow behind him. The sharp-faced thug covered his head and trembled as he stood next to Kassy. "What should we do now, Ms. Kassy?" They we
Bianca finally fell asleep around midnight. While on the plane, Luke had cleaned her in the airplane's bathroom, changed her into a set of comfortable pajamas, and applied ointment on the bruises of her body. Luke leaned on the headboard, holding a cigarette between his fingers. He wanted to light it, but after realizing that Bianca was very sensitive to the stench, he put the cigarette away. No one knew what he was thinking. The soft light in the luxury cabin that landed on his body made him seem even taller, but at the same time, cast a lonely shadow. He was angered greatly when Kassy yelled that Bianca had been violated, but other than anger, he could only feel tenderness and pity for Bianca. He would not mind if Bianca were really violated. He loved her body, but he loved her soul even more. If something had really happened to her, he would not blame her. Instead, he would blame himself for not protecting her. He might be a clean freak, but he wanted to live a h
Bianca felt a little guilty when she saw a faint handprint on Luke's face. She remembered that she had landed a vicious slap on his cheek when she could not control her emotions. She could feel that her palm was still stinging. Bianca tenderly caressed his face and said hoarsely, "Does your face still hurt, Luke?" She regretted slapping him. However, she could not help but feel aggrieved that he had come so late. She could not imagine what would happen to her and the children if Luke had arrived another second later. The man's gaze wavered slightly. He placed his hands on her tender cheeks and stared straight into her eyes. "It doesn't hurt at all. Not a bit." "You're lying!" Bianca laughed with tears in her eyes, playfully tugged at his short hair, and pouted. "Don't you know how afraid I was back then? I was afraid that I might not see you again, but I was even more afraid that something might happen to our children. Don't you know, Luke, I'd rather die than see any h
The three children hugged the door frame and looked into the room, intimidated by their father's authority. They looked quite adorable. Naturally, Bianca noticed them. She put down her fork and spoon and beckoned at her children with a smile. "Come in, my babies… Have you had your lunch? Won't you eat with me?" Luke knew that the children were afraid of him. He whispered something next to Bianca's ear, then nodded at the children and let them come in. Seeing that their father allowed them to go in, they answered their mother's call and ran inside. "Mommy! Huggy…" The first to run in was Tommy. He stretched out his arms, and he seemed too anxious to be hugged by his mother. Before he reached the bed, Luke lifted him by his collar like an eagle snatching a little bird. "Your Mommy hasn't recovered yet. Wait until she's better before you hug her." Tommy pouted unhappily, and Bianca wanted to laugh because that little boy looked so similar to his father. However, seeing Tom
After Bianca brushed her teeth and washed her face, she thought of putting on makeup. Kassy had put on her makeup meticulously when she abducted Bianca. She put lipstick on her lips and wore high heels. Bianca wanted to show that she was the superior woman and that she was not one to be bullied. However, she remembered that Kassy might have been blinded by now. Instead, she wore some loose-fitting casual clothes. When she came out of the bedroom and saw Luke in formal wear, she suddenly felt underdressed. Luke was sitting on the couch and reading a financial newspaper. She hesitated for a while before saying, "Can you wait for me just a little longer?" "Hm?" Luke turned his head and looked at Bianca suspiciously. "Well, I thought that I should put on some light makeup…" Bianca bit her lip as she looked into his eyes. "I don't think it's suitable for me to leave the house like this." Luke looked at her carefully. "It's fine. You look great like this. You're naturally bea
So what if Bianca had Luke's love? She had already been violated by another man! Even though Kassy's eyes were ruined, her face contorted viciously. She pointed in Luke and Bianca's direction and shrieked madly, "Have you seen the video of another man f*cking that b*tch, Matthew? I don't think you have. You shouldn't have been so calm. I don't believe any man could remain composed after knowing that he has been made a cuckold! You can look at that video. Hahaha…" Bianca looked at Kassy with pity. "Kassy, do you still believe that I had been violated? If you're so intelligent, why not spend some time wondering why I'm still standing here, if I truly have been violated? The truth might disappoint you. I was not violated at all." Kassy's body stiffened abruptly. "You're lying! I heard with my own ears that you were moaning and pleading for mercy. Why are…" Luke's expression sank. He wanted to hug Bianca tightly. Bianca smiled at him, indicating that she was fine. Then, she con
