Chapter 124 Luke Did Everything A Husband Should Do For His Wife
Blanche, who was being hugged by Granduncle, glanced at Xavier who had been staring at him. He blinked cluelessly and got a little scared, so he turned his head away and grabbed onto Granduncle's neck.
Blanche was a little uncomfortable being stared at.
’Come on, give Uncle a hug!” Xavier stretched out his hands toward Blanche.
Blanche did not recognize this uncle and did not like the look in his eyes, so he did not look back because he did not want to give that uncle a hug.
Granduncle said to the child in his arms, "Lanie, this is your uncle."
But I've never seen him before." Blanche thought that this uncle looked like a meanie with fierce eyes.
"He's really your uncle. He's my biological son. What are you afraid of? If he scolds you, just tell me and I'll peel his skin off.”
When Daniel said that, he stuffed the child into Xavier's arms.
Xavier hugged him safely.
Blanche was a little reluctant and looked at his daddy for help. He did not want to look at Xavier's face.
Xavier carried Blanche and walked toward Luke who was sitting with Rainie on his lap.
"It seems that it's time for me to settle down and start a family," Xavier told Luke.
Blanche glanced at his so-called uncle, pouted, and said, "Are you not married yet?"
"Yeah, just like your daddy. No one wants old men like us." Xavier smiled but carefully looked at the child's face. He took a good look from his eyebrows all the way to his chin.
After taking a good look, Xavier raised his head and glanced at Rainie.
Luke glanced at his relatives in the distance with a sullen gaze. He asked casually, "So which second- removed cousin is related to the female paparazzi?"
Xavier stared at Blanche's little face and studied it carefully while he said," That female paparazzi is just the sister of a friend of mine from prison. The friend was good to me. After being released from prison, I planned to give his family some money, but his sister didn't want it. She just wants to be famous in the paparazzi world. She told me that she wants to be the first female paparazzi in the country." 1
Blanche listened to what the adults were talking about, staring at his strange uncle who did not blink. He did not understand why his uncle stared at him even when he was speaking.
"Since she's not about the money, she decided to be the country's number one female paparazzi. I'm pretty impressed by her dedication, but she’s not my type," Xavier said and raised his hand to squeeze Blanche's little cheeks. He smiled and continued, "So then I thought you never had any scandals and the media had never reported about your private life.
Moreover, your assistant always stops anyone from taking pictures of you.
That's why I told her she could take your pictures."
At that moment, he used his big hand to squeeze Blanche's face.
"This kid is so cute." Xavier decided to stop torturing the kid and let go. He sat back in his chair and said, "If she exposes the formidable T Corporation's big boss' private life, I'm sure her company will
soar overnight. She’ll be able to get famous in the industry for sure."
Luke had another question of concern. "If the female paparazzi isn’t your type, what kind of woman is?"
Before coming over, Luke received a call from his uncle. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
The old man merely wanted to express his sadness about the past few years. When Xavier was in prison, his dad had grown older.
Finally, he was able to see his son get released from prison.
As a father, Daniel only wanted to see his son change his evil ways and do good. He was already 30- something. He had enough fun. He thought that
getting married would set his son’s path in the right direction.
It was useless to persuade his own son to get married as soon as possible.
If his tone was a little sterner, he was afraid that his son might just live outside.
As a last resort, Daniel asked his nephew for help. That was why he told Luke about it.
Luke himself was not married yet, so it felt a little hypocritical to advise someone else to get married. However, when Xavier brought up the topic himself, he told Luke that it might be time for him to get married and start a family.
Luke thought about the hardships his uncle and aunt had to endure over the past five years. Xavier was over there looking at Blache's little face, thinking about a certain woman. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Luke. "Why? Are you planning to introduce a lady to me based on my type?"
"Why don’t you tell me more about it?" Luke picked up the cup of tea on the table and gracefully took a sip.
"I don’t really have a type. Why don't you introduce someone to me instead? I’d prefer a woman who likes spending time with kids."
Xavier said nonchalantly, "I like kids. I heard that in order to have twins, either the father or the mother must have the genes for it. Our Tanner family doesn’t have any twins, so I can only count on the woman."
Blanche knew that Rainie and he were twins. That meant Mommy was very good.
Luke's slender fingers played with the teacup. His face remained expressionless, but his mind went back to more than five years ago.
When he learned that Bianca was pregnant with twins, he was signing an important document. As soon as Faye told him the news, he stopped what he was doing even though he was already signing halfway. 2
He knew how hard it was for a woman to go through pregnancy, especially for a young girl who was 18, almost 19. She was pregnant with two babies after getting pregnant for the first time. It made him even more interested. In the background, he did everything a husband should do for his wife.
However, she did not know about any of it.
He never thought of forcing her. However, life just seemed to happen that way. He had no choice. If she did not get pregnant with him five years ago, she would have a hard life pleasing another man and giving birth to another man's children in exchange for her father's medical bill. 1
He selfishly tried to own her, but he also wanted to help her. At the same time, when he provided the treatment expenses and liver donor for her, he also satisfied the love and selfishness that he had buried in his heart for many years.
Bianca gave birth to twins for him and every time he thought about it, he was indeed very proud.
"Forget it. I need to meet someone first. You're not paying attention anyway." Xavier guessed that Luke’s mind was drifting off probably because he was thinking about the twins’ biological mother.
Blanche snorted. The pesky uncle was finally gone.
Xavier went to the garage to get his car. He got in the car and stepped on the accelerator to reverse the car out of the garage without telling anyone. He left the family gathering.
When Daniel saw his doing, he immediately called his son, "What tricks are you playing? Come back! Everyone came here to celebrate your release from prison. How could you leave just like that?"
"I’ll be back soon," Xavier said and hung up.
After speeding for about 30 minutes, he finally arrived at the mall in the photo.
He parked the Porsche Cayenne in a parking spot by the roadside. Xavier then walked toward Bianca who was distributing flyers.
"Hello, if you have the time, please take a look. Thank you." Bianca repeated the same words as she handed a flyer to a passerby. However, the person who took her flyer stood there, not moving after taking it.
Bianca looked up at the person.
"Oh, it's you. If I remember correctly, you're Luke's... Ex-girlfriend?" Xavier pretended to be surprised to see her coincidentally. He gave her a gentle smile.
