Bianca noticed that Sue's eyes were flickering with jealousy.
Sue suppressed the loss she felt in her heart and raised a glass to Bianca. "Ms. Rayne, our company has overcome a crisis, we should celebrate. Cheers!"
Bianca smiled and took a sip of wine.
With Sue starting it off, the other employees were itching to have a toast with Bianca as well.
"You’re not allowed to get Ms. Rayne drunk. She has a family. If she goes back drunk, she’ll have a hard time explaining herself. If you want to drink, drink with me." Sue stood guard in front of Bianca.
She wanted to remind Sue that she also had two kids to take care of, but then she thought that perhaps Sue wanted to get drunk to get some thoughts out of her head.
Everyone who worked in T Corporation was like family. Even if Sue got drunk, she would be taken care of. As such, Bianca went along with it.
The other side.
After Bianca left home, Luke had driven to the airport.
Maxine Douglas walked out of the airport and saw Luke standing next to the car, smoking a cigarette. She could not help but leap toward him.
"Luke, you’re here!" she walked up to him, her face flushed with excitement.
When Luke called her, Maxine could not believe what she heard! It was his voice and his number, so she knew she was not dreaming.
Maxine did not hesitate and booked the earliest flight to A City. It did not matter that there were no first or business class tickets available. She willingly accepted economy class.
"Get in the car." Luke's expression remained calm when faced with Maxine’s excitement. He put out his cigarette and opened the driver's door without any intention of opening the door for Maxine.
Maxine, who was still dazzled by the surprise, did not pay attention to these details. She happily walked around the front of the car and sat in the passenger seat.
She turned her head and looked at Luke with infatuation, missing the sinister look that always flashed in his eyes.
"Luke, are we going home to meet Aunt Allison?" Maxine was so happy that she had begun to fantasize about a life with Luke.
"We’re in no hurry." Luke started the car. "Have you eaten?"
"No." Maxine was surprised at his thoughtfulness.
"Let’s go for dinner, then." Luke’s brows furrowed tighter at the overwhelming smell of Maxine's perfume. Compared to the complicated and overbearing fragrance, he much preferred the smell of Bianca—clean and pure.
Maxine did not think much about what he said and immediately nodded in agreement.
Luke's gaze sank. He stepped on the accelerator and drove to Hilton.
Maxine was not aware that what was waiting for her was not a sumptuous and romantic dinner but an endless web to entrap her.
Hilton.
When Maxine got out of the car, she tried to hold Luke's hand but he avoided it easily.
At that moment, she felt a little hurt. However, when she thought about it further, she decided it was not a big deal. After all, a public figure like Luke had to maintain a good image on the outside.
What was more, the public thought he and Bianca were still together. If they were photographed holding hands by reporters, it would damage his image.
Maxine happily decided to go along with him.
Luke booked a private room.
Maxine walked behind him. They were seen by Sue, who was headed to the bathroom.
"Isn’t that..." She hurried back to the private room and grabbed Bianca's hand.
