Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 106

In order to avoid and run away from him, Bianca had quickly set up a blind date and was considering getting married to a man she felt she could get along with.

Luke could no longer restrain his raging anger. He stared her down. "Am I the plague? Why are you using this method of rejection?”

Bianca started to get nervous after being stared down by him. She shook her head and lied. "You’re not a plague, but someone like you has never been what I want in a partner. I merely used you to satisfy my vanity. After I got my revenge on Jean, my conscience finally spoke to me and now I’m retreating. There’s no wrong in that, unless you’re fine with me using you for the rest of your life?”

Luke was not the plague in her eyes but something more than that.

They had worked together and eaten together. Although they did not show their love publicly as they needed to look professional as an employer and employee, she could accept all that.

However, forcing herself to approach other men to get herself a suitable boyfriend was her last resort. She had to resort to this method to tell herself as well as Luke that the two of them could never have a future together.

"Since you’ve already started to use me, why not just use me for the rest of my life?"

That was the biggest compromise he was willing to take.

"One lifetime is a long time for me. I hope you can understand that meeting the wrong person is more terrifying than living alone for the rest of my life. Those were the words you personally told me. I understand myself, and I’m not that perfectly pure person you think I am in your head. If I get married to you, am I supposed to be the rich wife? What if Jean makes another promise to me and I end up giving it to him? What if I sleep with him to take my revenge against the mistress?” When Bianca finished, a tear came out of her eye.

She sighed and did not dare to wipe away the tear for fear that the two grandpas in the distance would see it.

She tried to keep it in, but in the end, she could not control her tears from coming out.

Even though her teardrop was shed because of their relationship severing, her lips said, "When I think about my relationship with Jean that I’ve been guarding for five years suddenly leaving me, I can’t help but feel my heart ache. I’m still salty that my boyfriend was snatched away by her, so now it's my turn to snatch her husband."

When Bianca said that, her eyes became reddish as she finished her final act.

However, even if everyone in the world was deceived by her acting skills, he could never believe it.

"I’ll let you take my grandpa to the hospital, but this will be the final time." Bianca nodded at him and turned to leave.

...

Old Master Crawford and Old Man Rayne had their gazes on the two of them.

When Bianca walked to Luke's car, she did not look as hurt as before.

Old Man Rayne saw her but did not ask any questions. Since his granddaughter got into the grandson-in-law's car, it might mean that it was not a big problem between the two of them.

"I'm leaving, Crawford!" When Old Man Rayne saw Luke get into the car as well, he waved at Old Master Crawford.

"When you get better, I'll get Luke to send you here to play chess with me." With a smile on Old Master Crawford's face, he waved until the black Range Rover drove out of the manor.

On the way to the hospital, Bianca looked down and fiddled with her phone.

Grandpa saw this, and he knew she should not ignore Luke. He said, "Bea, you’re such a fickle child. Sorry, Luke, you’ll have to bear with her sometimes.”

Luke glanced at both the two of them from the rearview mirror and nodded. "It’s fine.”

Bianca was replying to her classmate’s message.

At the last reunion, she friended a few of her old classmates on Facebook. They were all who she thought had good characters.

A few days after the reunion was over, a few people were chatting in the group, and one of them said she wanted to introduce her to a guy.

Bianca did not dare to tell them that she was with Luke. She was afraid that they would be shocked. Therefore, she shied away, saying that she was busy at work and had no time to date.

Now, even if she had no time, she would have to squeeze some in to start dating.
