Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1079

Bianca listened carefully to his every word, unwilling to miss out on anything.

She had a basic understanding of the drugs in front of her after Shanks’ explanation. She was a little disappointed to find out that these drugs would not cause much harm to the human body.

After Shanks went through the basics, he went on to teach them how to operate the instruments without checking whether the two of them could keep up with his pace.

Bianca was introduced to these instruments when she was in school. Compared to Eler, she was much more proficient. After Shanks assigned them a task, she mixed the materials and completed the purification process not long after.

Shanks sniffed her end product and said as he nodded in satisfaction, "Not too bad. You’re done for the day."

Bianca raised her eyebrows. Since she arrived on the Island of Despair, today was the first time she knew she could get out of class early. However, she was happy to leave. She took off her gloves, turned around, and walked out.

"Miss..." Eler held the test tube and looked like she was about to burst into tears. She looked at Shanks imploringly. She was fine serving others, but this was torture for her!

Shanks said with a cold expression, "You can only leave when you’re done."

"Mr. Shanks, this is too difficult for me..." Eler felt helpless. She did not get to go to school much back when she was in the village. Her family was not well-to-do, so she had given up the opportunity to go to school to her younger siblings. This was her first time being exposed to instruments like these.

Shanks did not react to her pleas and continued staring at her coldly.

Eler sighed and had no choice but to continue with the task at hand. Her mind was all over the place and she almost knocked over the lamp.

Bianca walked out of the room and looked at the bright corridor. The incandescent lights were constantly shining, reminding her of daylight.

She laughed mockingly. ‘No matter how bright the lights are, I’m still underground where there’s no such thing as day and night. When the lights are off, the only thing left is endless darkness.’

When she saw Abel approaching, Bianca's body stiffened and she subconsciously wanted to turn around.

"Stop." Abel smiled wickedly the moment he saw her. He sped up his pace and stopped in front of her.

Bianca kept quiet and stared at the evil man.

Abel lifted her chin and asked, "Why are you so free?"

"Shanks allowed me to leave early," Bianca said.

Abel was in charge of planning her schedule, so he had a grasp of the classes she took every day.

He increased the strength of his grip. He squeezed her face and asked, "Do you miss Luke?"

Bianca froze. The emotions in her eyes betrayed her.

"You miss him a lot, don’t you?" Abel grinned, let go of her, and crossed his arms in front of his chest. He looked down at her and said, "Luke doesn’t seem to miss you all that much, though."

"What do you mean?" Bianca asked warily. ‘Luke doesn’t miss me? Did he go to see Luke? Does he know that I’m trapped here?’

Seeing the looming hopefulness in her eyes, Abel wanted nothing more but to shatter it.

"I heard that Luke has been intimate with a woman recently. If it’s not because he’s still legally married to you, they’d already be walking down the aisle," Abel said. Maxine had not taken action, so he had no photographic evidence yet.

However, he did not need photos to start a rumor. All he wanted was to trigger Bianca.

"That’s ridiculous." Bianca lowered her gaze and did not react to what he said. That was because she knew Luke was not that kind of person.

Although a few months had passed, she was certain that he was still looking for her, so Abel’s words held no credibility.
