Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 283 I'm "Luke" To You In Bed, But We're Strangers Now? i

Luke shot a glance at Bianca. She was impeccably dressed in a fitting set of women's clothes. Her slender and fair legs were exposed beneath the skirt.

Her hair fell on her shoulders and back like a waterfall. Her face was delicate and clean, her eyes were like stars, and her lips were adorned by a faint coat of lipstick. The silk scarf gave her a unique charm, though he knew that she wore it to hide the marks on her neck.

Her elegance was like a cherry tree in full bloom, i

Luke felt his lower abdomen pulsating enthusiastically when he was reminded of Bianca's exquisite performance the night before. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

However, his gaze turned cold, and he pressed his lips when he thought of the woman's silly actions.

Bianca was fearful when she looked at him. She dared not breathe too loudly, in case she somehow angered him and he refused to save Nina.

Bianca cleared her throat and placed the document on his table. "These are the documents you requested, Mr. Crawford."

She felt bitterness in her heart when she smelled the tantalizing scent of chicken soup wafting from the flask.

'Has that Leia woman gotten so close to him? She even brought him chicken soup...' "Why, you call me Luke in bed, but suddenly we're strangers now?" Luke's anger mounted when he saw that Bianca was trying to avoid him.

Bianca was surprised by those words. She stared at his handsome face and reminded him, "We're at work now. You've always been impartial, Mr. Crawford. I don't think you want to bring your personal life into your work."

Luke narrowed his eyes, and they flashed with hostility. "Do you know what you are talking about, Bianca Rayne?"

Bianca had known him for a while, and she could guess with decent accuracy about his current mood.

She knew that he was about to lose his temper, even though she did not know why that was the case. She sighed and decided to bring in the main topic. "I don't want to argue with you, and we can settle whatever's between us at a later time. I only want to request one thing from you..."

The surroundings suddenly turned eerily quiet. Bianca felt as though she could not breathe.

Luke took a drag of his cigar. "What is it?" He asked coldly.

Bianca bit her lower lip so hard that it was almost bleeding. "Please... save Nina..."

Luke glared at her coldly.

A stray hair was resting on his forehead, which added a hint of disorder to his composed maturity.

He tapped the cigar on the tray and continued to speak with a tinge of mockery in his tone. "If you hate me that much, then why do you ask me for favors? Are you that miserable when you're with me, Bianca?"

Luke was unhappy when he saw how Bianca had been avoiding him.

He was used to her relying on him and clinging to him. He was not used to Bianca's distance.

He knew that he should not have said those words to Bianca, but he could not control himself because of his anger...

Bianca kneaded her hands and clenched her fists. "Even if you don't want to do it for me, please save Nina on the consideration that she is an employee of T Corporation. Xavier's men took her away because of me. He had threatened me by getting his men to violate her if I didn't... sleep with him. He sent me many photos and videos of Nina. Seeing her in despair, I had no other choice... She's my best friend, and she got into this mess because of me. I can't bear to see her suffer."

Bianca's tears fell uncontrollably.

She covered her mouth, not willing to lose control of her emotions in front of him, but her tears continued to fall.

'That's why you yielded to Xavier's threat?" Luke stubbed out the cigar and stood from his chair. His gaze on Bianca was like a wild beast on the verge of a rampage.

Bianca took a deep breath and clenched her fists. "Yes."

Luke's fist slammed onto the office table. The stacks of documents fell to the floor.

He tried to control his emotions, but his words remained harsh. ' Have you lost your mind? Do you think that you can solve the problem by going there alone? What can't that scoundrel do? Should I say that you're brave or stupid? Can't you call me for help?" i

Bianca laughed drily and said, "Don't you think that I will call you for help? I couldn't reach you. Your phone was switched off... I was losing my mind, but I can't contact you. Don't you know how fearful and desperate I was? Nina is my best friend, and I was running out of time. How could I ignore her?" 'What about the police?" "Xavier threatened me, saying that I'll see Nina in a bodybag if I call the police...

"I can't leave Nina alone in danger. What else can I do? I had to take the gamble..."

Luke suddenly remembered that when he got off the plane and turned on his phone, he noticed many missed calls from Bianca. He thought that she missed her and did not worry too much about it. 1

He realized that Bianca had tried to call him for help, but what did he do?

Not only did he not believe her, but he had mistaken her intentions when he saw Bianca in bed with Xavier. His heart was wracked with guilt and pity.

"I'm sorry. I... I didn't know about that." Luke stepped in front of Bianca and looked earnestly into her eyes. Tentatively, he reached behind Bianca and brought her delicate body into his embrace.

She was painfully thin. The man's lips kissed her eyelashes and continually apologized to her.

Bianca shoved him away.

She was disappointed by what happened last night and how he had treated her.

"Nina is still in Pierre Mallory’s hands, and I don't know her current situation. I hope that you can save her as quickly as possible, Mr. Crawford. I will forever be in gratitude," she said coldly.

Then, Bianca turned around and walked out of the office.

Luke's gaze was wracked with guilt and wistfulness as he watched Bianca leave the office. He clenched his fists and punched the office table again. Blood seeped out from the broken skin, but he did not feel pain at all. 1

He pressed a button on his office phone and summoned Jason.
