Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 61

"I’m not really looking for anything specific in a partner."

She just wanted to end the blind date as soon as she could.

She felt even more stressed with Luke sitting on the other side like a guardian angel.

"You don’t have any prerequisites? Let me tell you about my situation, then." At that moment, Leon's cell phone next to his coffee cup rang.

"Sorry, I have to answer this call."

After Leon said that, he stood up.

Bianca breathed a sigh of relief.

However, she still did not dare to move in case she accidentally looked at the other man next to her.

Luke did not move much either. He just looked at the newspaper and occasionally took a sip of the bitter coffee.

The caller ID said, “Aunt Allison".

Leon answered the phone.

"Leo, how’s the blind date going?" Allison asked anxiously and wanted to know the decision as soon as possible.

Leon glanced at Bianca who was sitting alone in the distance, and said unbearably, "Aunt Allison, this girl looks very good and I don't want to hurt her."

When Allison heard what he said, she became angry, "What do you mean to hurt her?!"

"I'm gay. I can't give her a married life or even normal love between a man and a woman. If we get married, my parents will force me to have a kid. I can't sleep with a woman... She is beautiful, quiet, and polite. I can't do it..." Leon told Allison in English.

"I don't care if you’re gay or not! If you want to be with your boyfriend, you have to pacify your parents. Your parents just want a grandchild! After you marry her, you can take her to a foreign country and give her a test tube baby so you won’t have to touch her. I’m doing all this because I care for you. Are you really that stupid?"

Allison threatened loudly, "Leo, it's not like that woman is marrying you willy-nilly. You got lucky and a readied fool is waiting for you to take her away! Don't you think you should seize the opportunity? Don’t forget the most important thing. Your boyfriend committed a commercial crime. If it’s up to me, he can spend the rest of his life in jail!"

Leon's call took ten minutes.

When he came back to meet his fate, Bianca was about to make an excuse to leave.

However, when Leon sat down, he said, "Bea, I'm glad I met you. It feels amazing to fall in love at first sight. I wonder if you fell in love with me at first sight too?"

Bianca, "..."

‘Love at first sight? That’s kinda rash.’

Bianca did not think that anyone would actually have a reason to fall in love with her at first sight.

"You’ve seen my height and appearance. You know about my family’s wealth. After we get married, we’ll live abroad. I promise you’ll have nothing to worry about for the rest of your life." Leon tried to talk about his strengths.

"Pft!"

Bianca almost spat out the coffee!

Luke's ruthless gaze fell on the foreign man.

"I’m sorry, Mr. Lacroix." Bianca wiped the corners of her mouth with panic. She looked up and said, "I don't think we’re a good match. I’ll pay for the coffee. Goodbye."

After she bid her farewell, she picked up her handbag and nodded politely at Leon.

She left without looking back.

After she got out of the cafe, Bianca waved down a taxi.

Bianca handed her phone to the taxi driver. The address was on the screen that showed a quiet place which was also a place that was famous for being the wealthiest area in the city."

The taxi driver started the meter and the car started to move along the flow of the traffic.

Bianca looked back at the foreign black Land Rover outside the cafe. The car did not follow her and she finally felt relieved.
