Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 960

After Percy left with Nina, Bianca had to spend some time reassuring Steven and promising that she would arrange for another meet-up soon enough.

Steven was dissatisfied but did not say much.

Bianca knew he was upset and bought two bottles of fine wine at the hotel. When she sent him off, she handed him the wine and the other's mood seemed to ease a little.

She was relieved when she watched him leave with his secretary.

Bianca was not confident that she could secure this partnership.

Bianca massaged her face, which had been cramping from smiling all night. She sighed helplessly. She called for an Uber because she did not want to drive after drinking.

When she got home, she walked into the living room and found that Luke was not working in the study as he usually was. He was sitting on the sofa waiting for her.

"Luke?" Bianca called out to him softly. The moment she saw the man waiting for her in the living room, her foul mood was gone.

She did not want to think about how to secure the partnership with St. Heckler Hotel. At that moment, all she wanted was to be with Luke.

"Come and sit here." Luke pointed to the seat next to him while holding a teacup.

Bianca sat down and leaned on him.

Luke could smell the alcohol on her clothes. He picked up the lid of the teacup and passed it to her. "Drink some tea."

Bianca smelled the sweet honey, and after drinking several glasses of red wine, her stomach was not feeling the best. This honey tea could ease her discomfort.

"Thank you." She took it and drank several sips.

The tea was perfectly warm as if Luke knew when exactly to start preparing it.

The warm tea slid down her throat and into her stomach, alleviating a lot of the discomfort she was feeling.

Bianca put down the teacup, smiled gently, and looked into Luke's deep-set eyes.

Maybe it was because she had a few to drink, she seemed to see thousands of stars in Luke's eyes. She could not help but say, "Luke, I’m so glad to have you by my side."

Luke looked at her blushing face and sighed. The fury in his heart was instantly extinguished by her beautiful face.

"How was dinner?" He squeezed her soft hand and gently played with the diamond ring on her ring finger. It was glowing under the lights.

Bianca frowned and sighed when she thought about dinner.

"It didn’t go well?" Luke asked. He thought about Percy's text and decided that he would take her side no matter what had happened.

Even though she had a wedding ring on, there were still men who coveted her beauty.

Luke was pissed.

Bianca shook her head and did not intend to tell him about Steven. That was because Mavis Laviere was involved.

Mavis was one of Luke’s best assistants before leaving. She did not want to ruin their relationship over this.

Although Luke did not feel the same way for Mavis as she felt for him, they had a good working relationship.

"It's nothing." Bianca picked up the teacup and took another sip. The honey tea made her stomach feel better. She gently leaned her head on Luke's shoulder.

Luke noticed that she was avoiding the topic and asked her directly, "What did the developer of St. Heckler do to you?"

Bianca was stunned! She looked up and uttered, "How did you know?"

Before he answered her, she knew that it must be Percy who said something to him.

When she met Luke's gaze, she told him everything, including Mavis’ involvement.

Luke had already guessed that Bianca was taken advantage of by the developer, but when he heard it from her, his heart burned with anger.
