Chapter 106
Chapter 106 Young Master Lanie Had Met With An Accident!
In order to avoid and run away from him, Bianca had quickly set up a blind date and was considering getting married to a man she felt she could get along with.
Luke could no longer restrain his raging anger. He stared her down. "Am I the plague? Why are you using this method of rejection?"
Bianca started to get nervous after being stared down by him. She shook her head and lied. 'You're not a plague, but someone like you has never been what I want in a partner. I merely used you to satisfy my vanity. After I got my revenge on Jean, my conscience finally spoke to me and now I'm retreating. There's no wrong in that, unless you're fine with me using you for the rest of your life?"
Luke was not the plague in her eyes but something more than that.
They had worked together and eaten together. Although they did not show their love publicly as they needed to look professional as an employer and employee, she could accept all that.
However, forcing herself to approach other men to get herself a suitable boyfriend was her last resort. She had to resort to this method to tell herself as well as Luke that the two of them could never have a future together.
"Since you've already started to use me, why not just use me for the rest of my life?”
That was the biggest compromise he was willing to take.
"One lifetime is a long time for me. I hope you can understand that meeting the wrong person is more terrifying than living alone for the rest of my life. Those were the words you personally told me. I understand myself, and I'm not that perfectly pure person you think I am in your head. If I get married to you, am I supposed to be the rich wife? What if Jean makes another promise to me and I end up giving
it to him? What if I sleep with him to take my revenge against the mistress?" When Bianca finished, a tear came out of her eye.
She sighed and did not dare to wipe away the tear for fear that the two grandpas in the distance would see it.
She tried to keep it in, but in the end, she could not control her tears from coming out.
Even though her teardrop was shed because of their relationship severing, her lips said, "When I think about my relationship with Jean that I've been guarding for five years suddenly leaving me, I can't help but feel my heart ache. I'm still salty that my boyfriend was snatched away by her, so now it’s my turn to snatch her husband." 1
When Bianca said that, her eyes became reddish as she finished her final act.
However, even if everyone in the world was deceived by her acting skills, he could never believe it.
"I'll let you take my grandpa to the hospital, but this will be the final time." Bianca nodded at him and turned to leave.
Old Master Crawford and Old Man Rayne had their gazes on the two of them.
When Bianca walked to Luke's car, she did not look as hurt as before.
Old Man Rayne saw her but did not ask any questions. Since his granddaughter got into the grandson- in-law's car, it might mean that it was not a big problem between the two of them.
'I'm leaving, Crawford!" When Old Man Rayne saw Luke get into the car as well, he waved at Old Master Crawford.
'When you get better, I'll get Luke to send you here to play chess with me." With a smile on Old Master Crawford's face, he waved until the black Range Rover drove out of the manor.
On the way to the hospital, Bianca looked down and fiddled with her phone.
Grandpa saw this, and he knew she should not ignore Luke. He said, "Bea, you're such a fickle child. Sorry, Luke, you'll have to bear with her sometimes."
Luke glanced at both the two of them from the rearview mirror and nodded. "It's fine."
Bianca was replying to her classmate's message.
At the last reunion, she friended a few of her old classmates on Facebook. They were all who she thought had good characters.
A few days after the reunion was over, a few people were chatting in the group, and one of them said she wanted to introduce her to a guy.
Bianca did not dare to tell them that she was with Luke. She was afraid that they would be shocked. Therefore, she shied away, saying that she was busy at work and had no time to date.
Now, even if she had no time, she would have to squeeze some in to start dating.
Last night, she sent her classmate a Facebook message to tell her that she was open to meeting the guy she mentioned last time.
Since last night, her classmates had not stopped telling Bianca how good the man was.
'I won’t introduce you to someone bad. He’s a good buddy of my boyfriend’s. He has always been single. He has a very good lifestyle and a good attitude. Why didn't I introduce him to other female classmates?
Well, look at them! All the honest men have been played by them! Poor things have their money all cheated away by those girls!’ Bianca's female classmate replied a bunch of things.
Bianca replied, ‘Thank you. After I meet him, I’ll seriously consider him.'
'It's no problem. I just want to play cupid and see a good marriage. I love it when a couple with great qualities come together, the female classmate typed.
Bianca looked down at the meeting time and address saved on the screen of her phone. She started to space out. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
She deliberately ignored Luke who was driving. When she could not control her emotions by reason and could not help but think of Luke, she would immediately think of Allison's face.
It was to remind herself of something that they could never overcome in their relationship.
Luke drove the car and stopped at the entrance of Silver Hospital.
Since Bianca had spaced out on the way, she forgot to tell him which hospital she wanted to go to for Grandpa's check-up. However, he had already thought it through and avoided Paramount Hospital.
"Thank you for driving Grandpa and me." Bianca helped Grandpa get out of the car. After Grandpa got down, she looked up and said to him.
Luke looked into her eyes and saw confusion in them. "I still have a bunch of things I need to do, so I won’t send you in."
"Okay." Bianca nodded and helped Grandpa turn around to walk into the hospital.
Luke also got in the car and drove off.
Bianca helped Grandpa walk a few steps when she heard the sound of the car driving away. She did not look back. From that moment onward, she would try to forget the brief relationship she had with him and start her new life.
It took almost half a day for them to queue up for registration, check Grandpa's body, and for the results.
At about one o'clock in the afternoon, Bianca sent Grandpa, who seemed to be well, back to her rented place.
Grandpa muttered with a guilty conscience, "It was just some blood in my cough. It's no big deal. My cancer's gone and perhaps coughing up blood is not necessarily a sign of a serious illness..."
Bianca did not think that Grandpa had pretended to be sick.
"Grandpa, I’ll be back to cook dinner for you in the evening. I have something to do outside now. Is it alright for you to be alone?" She knew that she had to work, socialize, and deal with a lot of things. It was impossible to stay with Grandpa and take care of him all day.
That was what she thought. Perhaps when she earned a little more next time, she would be able to hire a caregiver.
Since Grandpa could walk, speak, and was mentally clear, the caregiver would not be able to bully him. Usually, the elderly who were bullied had problems expressing themselves or could not speak.
"I’ll be fine. Go ahead and do what you need to do." The old man sat firmly on the sofa, turned on the TV, and started watching it.
When Bianca saw that, she was relieved.
However, when she went downstairs, her phone rang.
It was a landline number.
"Hello, this is Bianca," she picked up and said.
"Ms. Bianca! Come here quick! Young Master Lanie has met with an accident!" The nanny's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.
