Upon hearing that Sebastian was managing the situation outside, Bianca knew Zane had previously informed him not to let anyone casually enter.
"Let him in," she said, setting down the scissors she held and rising to her feet.
She was all too familiar with Malcolm's temperament. It was not something a mere butler could contain.
Upon hearing this, the maid was greatly relieved!
It was clear that before coming over to see Bianca, she had already witnessed Malcolm's terrifying nature firsthand!
He was even more fearsome than the rumors suggested.
-
Five minutes later, the maid cautiously served coffee to both Bianca and Malcolm, clearly intimidated by the tense atmosphere.
Observing the trembling hands of the maid, Bianca said, "You may leave now."
"Y-yes, of course," the maid stammered before rushing away.
Malcolm was too intimidating, especially with the dangerous glint in his eyes. He looked as though he would devour someone at any time!
With that, Bianca and Malcolm were left alone. Under his piercing gaze, Bianca nonchalantly sipped her coffee with a faint smile playing on her lips.
"It might not be as good as mine, but you'll have to make do," she remarked.
Indeed, she made an exquisite brew.
Before entering Malcolm's world, Bianca was merely a novice in domestic affairs. Even a simple meal required waiting for Natalie's availability.
Now, however, she had honed her skills impressively.
"Why should I settle?" Malcolm's voice was cold, intensifying the already dangerous atmosphere.
Bianca looked at him with a smile that seemed to ignite Malcolm's nerves. This woman was absolutely maddening!
At this moment, Malcolm genuinely wished he could strangle Bianca. He had never encountered such a detestable woman before.
She spoke in such a defiant tone!
It made one wish they could rid themselves of her entirely.
Bianca replied, "Because I won't make a cup for you. If you're unwilling to settle, don't drink it!"
Malcolm was silent.
With that statement, the atmosphere grew even colder around them.
There was nothing but icy chill in his eyes when he looked at her.
Bianca remarked sarcastically, "You didn't come here today expecting me to make your coffee, did you?"
Her tone dripped with mockery, further aggravating Malcolm.
"Bianca!" he spat out her name.
"I don't particularly care for you using my name," she sharply interrupted before Malcolm could continue.
Indeed, she disliked it.
After all, she hadn't existed in his world under the identity of Bianca.
His gritted teeth and venomous tone seemed to intentionally remind her of everything between them.
"Well, then, what would you prefer I call you? 74?"
Bianca remained silent.
At her words, her expression briefly shifted before quickly returning to normal. It became evident that she, too, had mastered the art of controlling her emotions and facial expressions to the extreme.
She appeared completely indifferent.
"I'm... your sister-in-law. You should probably call me 'Sis'."
Malcolm fell silent.
Hearing Bianca address herself as such caused Malcolm's face to darken instantly. But just as his expression turned icy, the gleam in Bianca's eyes intensified.
Her smile seemed to taunt him, causing his anger to burn fiercely!
He grabbed her neck and said menacingly, "Do you think that by marrying him, I can't harm you?"
He exerted more pressure in his grip as he spoke.
To him, it seemed as though Bianca was nothing more than a mere ant in his grasp. Whether in the past or now, he felt he could easily crush her.
