Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 55

The subway arrived at one stop after another.

Bianca felt that her body, which was closely adhered to Luke's, was getting somewhat strange…

The subway carriage’s large windows were reflecting the images of the passengers inside the cart.

Bianca could not bring herself to look up at first. But after some time, the blush on her face had faded substantially. She tried to lift her head slightly to peek at the image reflected on the cart’s window.

Luke’s tall and straight body stood behind her. The man held onto the handrail with one hand and protected her with the other. He had wrapped his arm around her waist and was embracing her.

Bianca was petite, and she was curious to see the expression on his face. The man’s height had caused his face to be out of her sight unless she dared to raise her head further up.

The wretched older man who was taking advantage of her earlier had only touched her hand deliberately. Yet, Luke’s possessiveness had made him take it upon himself to wrap her into his arms instead.

Other passengers nearby also heard the man calling her ‘darling’ so the men automatically moved further away from Bianca. They wanted to avoid making this ‘husband’ of hers upset.

When the subway reached the commercial street in the city center, many passengers had alighted.

Bianca watched as the subway stopped, and the people around her started walking toward the door. She was wondering if Luke knew how to take the subway, so she turned around and whispered, “It’s time to get off.”

Luke was unaware of which stop to get down from.

Hearing that, he replied to her with a light “okay”.

Bianca walked in front and got off the subway as she always had. She walked toward the exit and wondered if Luke was still following suit.

Once she was out of the subway station, the street across from it was the T Corporation’s building. It was less than a five minutes’ walk.

Bianca’s heart was beating rapidly. Although she was not walking side by side with her male superior, he was closely walking behind her.

‘This area is within the company’s boundary,’ Bianca thought anxiously. ‘Would anyone notice us?’

After all, Luke took the subway to work today, and he stuck out like a sore thumb…

Bianca quickened her pace unconsciously.

…

Luke walked out of the subway station in a calm manner.

He arrived at Bianca’s rental community’s gate at twenty minutes past seven in the morning. He drove his car there, but he saw Bianca walking straight to the subway station absent-mindedly after leaving her house.

He followed her and naturally bought a ticket by swiping his card, following all her actions, and getting on the subway carriage.

She was not at all aware that he was following her along the way.

Unbeknownst to him, this woman’s train of thoughts had also started to affect his state of mind. Luke thought that after more than five years had passed; she would become just another passerby in his eyes.

The facts had proved that this was not the case.

Luke walked within the boundaries of T Corporation. The boss who was walking to work unsurprisingly had attracted the attention of many of his employees who were about to enter the building.

The boss did not drive to work today,

Moreover, he came from the direction of the subway station across the street.

This alone was enough to arouse endless reveries amongst company employees.

Bianca entered through the revolving door of the company. She walked with her head down and went straight toward the direction of the elevator.

She stared at the numbers on the elevator panel as it descended and quickly entered once the door was opened. However, she still failed to avoid ‘the thing that was bound to happen’ and that ‘person who should not have come in’.

She looked at the man who walked in while holding the elevator door, and her small face turned pale and horrified.

The elevator door closed, and it took Bianca quite some time to return to her senses. Only then she pressed the floor she was headed to.
