Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2547

The corner of Luca’s lips curled up in glee at the sight of his grim face.

She was honored to be able to cause post-traumatic stress to someone as sly and cunning as Pierre.

Pierre had traumatized many people in A City, and the fact that she gave the devil incarnate a taste of his own medicine made her appear like a savior.

She helped everyone punish the defiant bully, Pierre.

The waiter led Pierre and Belle to a corner seat. “Sir, Madam, is this table okay with you?”

“This is fine.” Belle looked at Pierre. Only then did she realize that his gaze had been fixed on one spot the entire time.

She followed his line of sight and saw Luca.

Belle looked at Pierre suspiciously and asked, “Mr. Mallory, did you see someone you know?”

“Not really.” Pierre withdrew his gaze and was about to sit down until he recalled Madam Mallory’s words. He had to be a gentleman to Belle.

To avoid getting into such trouble, Pierre gently pulled back the chair behind Belle.

“Thank you.” Belle was very satisfied with Pierre’s gentlemanly behavior.

Even though he sounded serious as if he was not trying to impress her, his cold face exuded a different kind of charm.

When she first returned to A City, she learned about the situation of high society through some close friends.

There were two brothers in the Mallory family, and they used to get along well, but their relationship took a turn for the worse after deciding who had the say in Mallory Corporation.

Everyone said that the second son was not as good as the eldest in every aspect, but she had heard the story of the Mallory family before.

Thus, Belle never intended to marry into the Mallory family. Plus, the eldest son had devoted himself to a mediocre woman, so she did not bother using her family’s influence to marry him either.

After hearing from others, Belle thought that Pierre would be the same. However, after meeting him in person, she found out that he was not as bad as people said he was.

Even if she really married Pierre, who was seen as less than Percy, it did not seem like a bad choice at all.

Even if he was not the CEO of Mallory Corporation’s, Pierre would have extra leverage after the marriage between the Mallory and Chamberlain families. Moreover, this leverage was not something a mere few percent of shares would be able to overcome.

Belle admired Pierre’s face as he looked quite handsome too.

If they did end up together, she would help him become the CEO of Mallory Corporation.

Pierre sat across from her.

The waiter handed over the menu.

Pierre was not in the mood to order and gestured to pass the menu to Belle. “Ladies first.”

Belle gave him a few more brownie points for his gesture and smiled while ordering appetizers, mains, and desserts. Then, she asked the person across the table, “Mr. Mallory, since we both have somewhere to be later, let’s not drink.”

“That’s what I was thinking.” Pierre’s gaze remained on Luca.

She was no longer looking this way, and she did not seem the least bit interested in what was going on over here.

Belle ordered two cups of coffee and looked up to ask him if there was anything he wanted to add, but she noticed that he was still focusing on the woman across from them.

She could not help but be curious.
