After they were done with groceries, Bianca drove Nina home. She planned to cook, so she parked the car in the villa.Nina got out of the car and stared at the Maserati in a daze."Nina, what's the matter?" Bianca also noticed the Maserati, which she knew was not Nina's car.Nina had a complicated look on her face. "He's here.""Who?" Bianca was puzzled and glanced at the numbers on the license plate. The license plate ended with three eights. The person who owned the car was well to do. Bianca immediately knew who the car belonged to.Percy Mallory."Master Percy of the Mallory family." Nina retracted her gaze. Percy had not called her for a while. She thought that he had gotten bored with her and did not expect him to appear out of the blue.Percy treated her place like a hotel. He came and left as he pleased.Bianca frowned, grabbed the groceries, and held Nina's hand. "Don't be afraid, I’ll go in with you."Nina smiled gratefully at Bianca. She was not afraid, but consider
Bianca was gentle and lovely. Luke felt a surge of warmth in his heart from her words. He nodded and said, "Yeah."Bianca looked into his eyes and touched the screen. She had been doing it a lot recently. As long as they were video calling, she could not stop her hand from touching the screen. It was as if she was trying to touch Luke.She missed him more and more with each passing day. If she were not caught up with her responsibilities in A City, she would not hesitate to buy a plane ticket and fly to New York to be by his side.Before she was together with Luke, she had never thought of herself as a clingy person. At that time, she lived alone and did not rely on anyone.However, she realized that she loved being near him after they got together.Bianca saw Jason appear in the video and asked, "Do you still have work to attend to?"Luke looked back at Jason and asked, "What's the matter?"Jason realized that he had disturbed Luke and Bianca’s catch-up. He shook his head quick
"Dad, Mom, Sister, why are you so early?" Leia knew that Queenie had invited Bianca over. Although she was unhappy about it, she did not show it. She had to behave with poise in front of the Hiltons.Brody greeted them, "Uncle Jack and Aunt Queenie, good afternoon."Jack saw the two but did not see the rest of the Hilton family. He put away his smile and turned serious. He handed Bianca’s phone back to her."Good afternoon." After greeting them back, Queenie glanced at Jack, stood up, and took Leia's hand. "How did the check-up go?"Leia paused, and her face quickly turned pale.Upon seeing this, Queenie was concerned and asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"Leia shook her head, returned to normal, and said with a smile, "Mom, I’m just messing with you. The check-up went well, there’s no problem.""Cheeky! You're going to be a mother but you're still so naughty. Sit down." Queenie nodded at her and pulled the chair out for Leia.Leia smiled and felt inexplicably guilty.
Leia touched her belly and said coquettishly, "This is your grandson. We have to at least wait until he’s born..."After three months, her pregnancy was deemed stable but she was still very cautious. She did not allow Brody to touch her even when he wanted to, so she was not willing to take the risk with Julius as well.The Hilton family only agreed to let join their family because of Brody's persuasion and the role that Julius played. He had persuaded Tania to agree to the marriage by bringing up the baby.Leia, on the other hand, had used herself to persuade Julius.Men like him looked like great husbands on the surface, but in fact, he had cheated on Tania behind her back more than once. All she needed to do to win him over was to go along with his likes. Julius's gaze was aggressive as the corners of his mouth curved into a lazy smile. He did not care about the baby at all. "I’ve been waiting for too long.""Can I interest you in other offerings for the time being? What do y
After she was done laughing, Bianca began to worry about Luke. It was early morning over there and he was still working hard. She quickly replied: [You’re still working?]Luke quickly replied to her: [Yeah, there’s a lot to attend to.] Bianca sighed. She knew that he was working hard so that he could come back soon. She replied: [Work can never be finished. Get a good rest and continue tomorrow.]Luke replied: [Okay, my love.]Bianca put down the phone and stopped replying for fear of interrupting his work.She turned on her laptop and searched for recipes that were good for those who worked into the night. She planned to cook for him when he came back.Three days later.Bianca received news that Luke was coming back tomorrow and excitedly asked for his flight number. She wrote it down in case she forgot.Later that night.Bianca checked the ingredients in the refrigerator. She would have to go grocery shopping to prepare for Luke’s return.His flight would arrive early in t
The next morning when Bianca woke up, she saw that Luke was still asleep.He needed the rest after a week of high-intensity work.Bianca turned her head and looked at him. He was a light sleeper. In the past, any movement from her would lead to him waking up and hugging her tighter. However, she turned over and Luke was still asleep. He must be exhausted.After she saw the dark circles under his eyes, Bianca tiptoed off the bed without disturbing him.When she walked out of the bedroom, she gently closed the door. Tommy was walking out of his bedroom at the same time. When he saw his mother, he excitedly wanted to greet her.Bianca immediately stepped forward and covered his mouth. She hugged him in her arms and said softly, "Shh, Daddy is still sleeping.""Daddy?" Tommy followed along and lowered his volume, his big eyes filled with curiosity as he asked, "Mommy, isn't Daddy coming home later?"Bianca gently opened the bedroom door and had Tommy take a look.When Tommy saw Luk
Bianca was pleased as she watched him eat happily. She passed him a bun and said, “Try this, this has raisins.”After Luke finished the bread that he had, he picked up the raisin bun and quickly gobbled it down.Bianca looked at him and could not help but laugh.Luke had always been elegant while eating. Today was an exception. It seemed that he had been starving the entire time he was in New York.Like Bianca, Tommy was looking at Luke with a smile. He pointed at the corner of his mouth and said to Luke, "Daddy, you have some crumbs there."Luke picked up the napkin and wiped the corners of his mouth. As expected, there were a few bread crumbs on his mouth. He took a sip of his soy milk and said with glee, "It's wonderful.""Do you want more?" Bianca asked. She felt a sense of accomplishment when she saw them finish the breakfast she made."I’ve had enough," Luke said.When Tommy saw that Luke was done eating, he blinked his big eyes, climbed off the seat, and ran to Luke’s si
At noon, Bianca was worried that Luke would be so busy with work that he would forget to eat. She picked up her phone and ordered a takeaway for him before she went downstairs to have lunch with Sue.Bianca and Sue sat facing each other. Bianca stirred the tea in her cup with a smile and said, "Sue, do you know that Mr. Doyle is coming back today?"Sue paused and wondered why Bianca was bringing up Jason out of the blue."Ms. Rayne, can we not talk about him? It'll ruin my appetite." Although Sue addressed Bianca as Ms. Rayne, her tone was casual and endearing.Bianca knew that she was lying. "Do you know about it?""Yes," Sue replied. Jason had told her the moment he booked his flight.Seeing her pretending to be unaffected, Bianca took a sip of her tea and said, "Kari and Teri must miss him."Sue nodded and stayed silent.Some habits were easy to form but difficult to quit. Jason had spent a lot of time with their daughters before he left for the business trip. He was patient
