Ch. 41..50

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 41-He Yanked Off Her Covers Bianca's levels of humiliation reached an unprecedented high.

She never thought that Jean would one day call her an "adulterous pig"!

Luke grabbed onto her snow-white ankle and refused to let go. She shrank away backward, resisting the bitter taste in the mouth. At the same time, she was utterly terrified by those blood-red eyes threatening to eat her up.

After a brief struggle, he had abrased her ankle and turned it red.

"Ow…” she cried out.

Bam!

Bam!

Jean kicked the door two more times.

The door was on the verge of shattering. Bianca was beside herself with anxiety, the last traces of blood draining from her already-pale face.

While Bianca was stuck between a rock and a hard place, her lips were suddenly taken by the man whose face was magnified infinitely before her.

That was followed by another sound from outside. 1 novelbin Bianca's ears were filled with the man's burning breath and his sexy panting.

Outside the bedroom.

Jean turned around when he heard the sound and saw four men in police uniforms, as well as one security guard from the neighborhood. They walked in through the open door.

"Please come with us!"

Jean looked at the policemen and then at the security guard. He gave one more glance at the tightly- closed door on the verge of falling off its hinges from his kicks, his voice confused and defiant, "It’s just a lover's quarrel. Since when did the cops get involved in these things?"

"Someone called the cops and said you trespassed into private property. Please cooperate with us," one of the policemen said as they grabbed hold of him.

Through the door, Bianca could hear the entire process as the police handled the matter…

Luke had long since let her go.

She hid in her covers, wrapping herself up tightly. Although it was raining heavily outside, it was still extremely damp and stuffy inside. The air- conditioning in the room was not on, so she was sweating buckets now…

There was the sweet smell of sex in the cramped space.

She did not know why he had suddenly stopped, but she was quite grateful for her luck. Perhaps he suddenly found his conscience and suppressed his actions…

The bedroom window was open.

Luke stood in front of the window, his tall body unmoving. Lowering his head and lighting up a cigarette, he frowned for a moment before he took a dreg and pulled out his phone, dialing a number. 1 The person on the other end picked up, and Luke said, "Bring Dr. Joyce over. It’s the same address as before. Hurry."

Bianca hid under her suffocating covers. She could not understand why he was calling for a doctor.

Dr. Joyce was the lady doctor who had treated her at the hospital.

What did he mean by the "same address"?

Bianca also wondered, who had called the police?

Was it her neighbor?

On second thoughts, it was quite likely Luke’s doing. He must have done it in secret.

Luke finished smoking the entire cigarette and turned around, only to see that she was still under the covers.

As the rain continued pouring down, he walked toward and roughly picked her up, yanking off her covers!

Bianca was exposed before his eyes, furiously saying, "What are you doing now…?"

Luke did not grow angry even when she called him a monster. Instead, he put her down and said softly, "Get up and go take a bath. Dr. Joyce will be here soon." 1 Bianca blinked after she was put down, slightly stunned.

'You’re bleeding." Luke felt a little guilty.

Bianca's mind went blank.

She knew what the man meant when he said she was bleeding. She knew where she was bleeding from…

That sort of bleeding was the only thing that could have made him slam the brakes when his lustful blood was boiling over. 1 "What happened…?"

Bianca panicked.

She sat up, holding the covers around her. At the same time, she glanced at the trace of red on the edge of the bed. It was about the size of a fingernail. 1 At the time, he was assaulting her and Jean was kicking down the door, so she was too freaked out to care about anything else.

Now that she saw the blood, she realized how scary it was.

Bianca may not be scared if she was bleeding at any other time. After all, it was only a tiny bit. Now, though, only slightly over a day had passed since she had been drugged with that aphrodisiac.

She could still remember what Dr. Joyce said.

In the worst-case scenario, she could lose her womb…

Luke did not say another word, staying silent. After a glance at her, he turned and walked into the messy living room. The simple decor there had been upturned by all of Jean's kicking.

There was even a cigarette butt on the floor, and the cigarette ash was everywhere.

Bianca took a deep breath, telling herself not to be afraid. It was fine. She was surely fine.

Her waist was slightly sore, but that was all she felt. That had to be a good sign, right?

Wearing her nightdress, she went to the bathroom.

Before she went inside the bathroom, she remembered she had nothing else to change into, so she opened the door and went to the closet to find another nightdress.

After her intense interaction with Luke earlier, the nightdress she was currently wearing was now unacceptably dirty in some places.

With the new nightdress in hand, Bianca went to the bathroom.

It took a long time for her to wash the stickiness off of her body. After that, Bianca hugged her knees and crouched down on the bathroom floor.

Although she was done with her shower, she still refused to go out and face that man.

It was only when Dr. Joyce arrived that Bianca dried her hair and walked out in her nightdress.

Jason Doyle had come along too, but he did not come inside.

"Let's do this check-up inside the room," Dr. Joyce said to Bianca.

Bianca nodded and pointed at the bedroom, bringing Dr. Joyce inside.

The check-up took about twenty minutes. Dr. Joyce asked her a few questions, but Bianca paled and reddened in turn as she answered them.

That sense of shame was overwhelming her again.

Dr. Joyce packed her equipment and looked down to clip her kit shut as she said, 'You're mostly fine, it's just your period came early. I'll tell you a few things that might help make you feel better."

Bianca heaved a sigh of relief and nodded. 'Thank you."

"Don't worry about it." Dr. Joyce walked out, and Bianca naturally followed behind her.

When they reached the living room, Dr. Joyce pulled out a pen and some paper.

She wrote a quick prescription and handed it to Bianca. "Buy the ingredients I listed here. It's a supplement for you to make into soup and drink, three times a day. Also, you should stay abstinent for the next month. Your period came early this time because you were too excited."

Bianca's face instantly reddened completely…

Dr. Joyce was a middle-aged old lady, and she had experienced plenty of sex in her time. She was not at all surprised to see the way young people went at it.

Still, as a doctor, she had to advise her patients to be careful.

Telling Bianca that was no different from telling her man, or so Dr. Joyce thought.

Since her work here was done, Dr. Joyce stood up and nodded at Luke before making to leave.

'Thank you for coming, Dr. Joyce." Luke personally walked her to the door.

Jason was waiting outside.

When he saw Dr. Joyce coming out of the house, he hurriedly took Dr. Joyce's medical kit for her and gave his boss a respectful nod. He then nodded at Bianca too before pressing an elevator button and leaving.

The second the elevator doors closed, Bianca blocked the door that Luke was about to close with her hand, saying softly, "It’s really late now. You should leave."

Luke had been filled with guilt because he had made her bleed. He had been afraid to face her and too scared to say anything else to her.

Several years ago, he was involved in an accident and nearly had to get an amputation. He had been worried about his body then, but his fear at the time paled in comparison to his concern for her body today. He actually could not think of anything else. 1 "Are you sure you're not lying to yourself again? You kept saying no, but your body was so into it that we had to call the doctor." 1 Bianca was furious. She looked up at him, saying, "What are you im…"

Luke's face was as cold and calm as a glacier. He grabbed her chin suddenly, lifting her little face and saying something that turned her red to the tips of her ears. ‘That was just the foreplay, by the way. If we really did it, would you die from the sheer pleasure?"

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 42-Senior Crawford, Luke Crawford, One And The Same After Luke left, Bianca stood at the door and stared for a long time. 1 He was right, and the doctor's diagnosis was right too. However, she did not know if she was right. Her body and senses had completely betrayed her.

There would probably be very few women who would not feel anything for such an accomplished and capable man.

However, when faced with a man as superior as Luke Crawford, many women would appraise themselves. They would consider if they had any right to feel anything for him, and what the consequences would be.

Aside from someone like Charlotte Shaw, which normal woman would be able to match up to him? novelbin Bianca knew herself well, so she had managed to keep her defenses up all this while. Today, though, when he forced her so overbearingly, her body had thrown in the towel and betrayed. It almost felt as though this body was not hers…

"Your body will speak the truth your mouth does not." That sentence was actually extremely discriminatory, but today, Bianca had to tragically admit that there was some truth in it.

She hated herself the way she was now.

She hated her body, which succumbed to his rough touch so easily, even more.

That night, Bianca did not sleep well at all.

First, she had to clean the soiled sheets before she could lie down in bed. Even then, her mind was filled with too many things, and her early period made her body feel exceedingly uncomfortable too.

At Crawford Manor.

Blanche stood in the first-floor living room, looking solemnly at his younger sister, who was drinking milk on the first second-floor landing. 'Take your time, drink it slowly."

Just then, Old Master Crawford entered the house from the yard and looked around before asking, "Your father isn't back yet?"

Rainie's mouth was covered in a milk mustache as she shook her head at her great-grandfather.

"He isn't at work either." Louis Crawford sat on the black leather couch, placing his legs on the coffee table and putting his phone down as he addressed the old man, "Maybe my brother has a dog outside."

"A dog?" Old Master Crawford leaned against his cane, but he could not figure it out. His elder grandson, Luke, was always a bit of a neat freak.

Why would he have a dog? Why would he keep it outside?

There was a huge garden right here at home. He had plenty of space to keep a dog here.

Blanche looked around, his impish eyes turning. He hurriedly wiped his little sister's mouth before running back to his uncle and saying with a grin, "Uncle Louis, does my dad really have a dog?"

He really loved dogs!

"You kids and old men don't get it. I meant, my brother may have found himself a b- I mean, a female dog." Louis had wanted to say "b*tch", but there were two kids here, so he refrained.

If he actually said it out loud, his grandfather would probably beat him to death with his walking cane!

This time, the old man saw through the generation gap with his younger grandson and somehow understood what the latter meant!

Old Master Crawford sat on the couch and tapped his cane onto the marble floor, deep in thought- True, Luke was not too young anymore. He had children, yes, but he never had any women with him. It was inevitable that…

He was a man, after all, and men had needs.

Old Master Crawford remembered the call he had received from the Shaws that afternoon, Director Shaw was adamant on having his daughter marry into the Crawfords, but at the same time, his older grandson might have a woman out there.

What should he do now?

The next day, the sky cleared after the rain.

Bianca got up early in the morning.

It was rare for her to get the week off, so she took the supplement prescription Dr. Joyce gave her last night and left the house.

The department store was right next to the subway station, so Bianca walked toward it.

It was a working day, and there were far fewer people inside than there usually were on a Sunday.

Bianca brought her shopping cart to the shelf with the brown sugar and put one packet into her cart before heading off to get some fresh ginger.

Finally, she pushed her cart to the sanitary napkin aisle.

She was taking a packet of night-safe when some called her name, "Bianca … Bianca Rayne?"

Bianca looked toward the voice, turning her head.

That person had just only arrived at the sanctuary napkin aisle too. She saw Bianca before she could pick her poison, but it had been many years since they last met, so she did not dare to run up to Bianca. Instead, she just called Bianca’s name tentatively. 1 The moment Bianca turned around to face her, she heard the girl scream," Is it really you, Bianca?!"

Bianca looked at her blankly.

"Aaaah, it really is you!" 1 The girl ran right toward her and enveloped Bianca in a hug.

That hug was so tight that Bianca could barely breathe…

After a while, the girl finally let go of her, tears in her eyes as she said, "Do you remember me? We were in the same class in middle school. I sat in the back row because I was too tall. My mother was our English teacher, and she gave you tuition at one point too!"

Bianca nodded at her. "You're Claudia Clinton."

"You remember my name?" Claudia had always been a bit boyish, but now she was touched to reunite with her old classmate that she nearly burst into tears.

The two of them had been in the same class for all three years of middle school, and they had even eaten cup noodles together at the school store before.

Such schoolyard friendships were actually quite common, but not for Bianca. This was because Bianca used to be bullied all the time at school, and Claudia was the only girl who dared to befriend her. 2 At the same time, their other classmates were somewhat wary of Claudia because her mother was a teacher. In other words, Bianca could avoid their bullying everytime she hung out with Claudia.

After they bought what they needed, they paid and left the store.

Bianca invited Claudia back to her place. The latter nodded and went with her.

When they entered the neighborhood, Claudia said, "My mom had a problem with her leg two years ago, and the two of US moved here to this city to get it treated."

Claudia’s father was a teacher too, but he had cheated on her mother with a beautiful young teacher at the school so the two of them had amicably divorced. 1 Bianca knew that Claudia had changed her last name since elementary school to match her mother's.

"How is Ms. Clinton now?" Bianca was more worried about Claudia's mother's health.

Miss Clinton had been very kind to Bianca back then.

Besides, rumor had it that Miss Clinton had specially given the senior named Crawford from the high school next door some private one-on-one tuition too…. 1 Back then, Bianca did not care what Senior Crawford's real name was. He was only a vague silhouette in her head.

After all, he was so far away and unreachable to her.

Now that she had met Luke Crawford, though, she could not help but compare him to the senior from back then. No matter how she cut it, they seemed to have similar features. The only difference was that one of them was a young teen whereas the other was a successful and mature adult man. The difference in their personalities and situations was huge.

"My mom had to get an amputation," Claudia replied after a long pause.

Her voice was filled with dejection.

Bianca tried to comfort her, but Claudia shook her head and said she was fine.

When they reached Bianca's door, Claudia seemed to remember something suddenly. She said, "My mom's having a birthday party next weekend. You gotta come and meet some of our old classmates."

Old classmates…

Those words were supposed to give her a warm and fuzzy feeling, but Bianca shrank away at them.

She was still traumatized by the bullying she suffered as a student.

Claudia did not notice anything amiss, following her into the house as she said, "Last night, my mom and I looked through the names in the class register and saw that you were the only one who never once attended the gatherings. All the other students my mom used to teach who are in this city now have visited before, and they come from all walks of life. There are parcel deliverymen and even CEOs of big companies. They came to visit anyway.” Bianca remembered Senior Crawford…

If Senior Crawford attended the gathering this year too, she would be able to determine if Senior Crawford and Luke Crawford really were one and the same…

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 43-Luke Was Frustrated And Upset!

It did not matter if they were the same person or not. Bianca was still going to this gathering.

Not for her classmates, nor for the senior she could barely remember, but solely for the teacher who once gave her so much love and care, Miss Clinton.

It was one thing if she had not heard about Miss Clinton, but now that she had, there was no way she could not go.

That noon, at Crawford Manor.

From the moment Luke walked through the door, the old man had been following behind his oldest grandson, asking, "You're not getting any younger. Maybe you should think about finding a life partner. Tell me, what kind of a woman do you like?” Luke went upstairs without saying a thing.

The old man followed him upstairs despite his walking stick, but he inwardly cursed his ungrateful grandson as he climbed the stairs. The boy had no love for the young or the elderly.

"Do you like them plump? On the fair side?" the old man pressed. He thought that was his older grandson's type.

Luke walked into his room. As he took off his coat, he also pulled off his tie and tossed it aside.

The old man continued, "I heard that Director Shaw's daughter is in town. Why didn't you bring her to meet me? If Director Shaw hadn't personally called me, I wouldn't have known a thing. I'm your elder!"

"Why should I bring her home to meet you? Who is she to deserve that?" Luke refuted his grandfather coldly amidst the sound of running water.

The old man's eye twitched, and he immediately understood. His older grandson did not fancy that Shaw heiress at all.

Old Master Crawford then turned around and went downstairs.

Downstairs, Louis Crawford was holding a blood peach. He was about to take a bite from it when suddenly the old man stabbed him in the back with his cane!

Louis turned around angrily. "Why’d you poke me, Grandfather?"

"Come here. Come sit with me." The old man beckoned at him, looking quite serious.

Louis glanced toward the stairs and then at his grandfather’s unnaturally solemn expression. He had no choice but to sit down and ask, "Did something happen, Grandfather?"

The old man took a deep breath and looked at his younger grandson, saying, "Help me keep an eye on your brother from now on. Find out more about the woman he's seeing."

"You want to keep an eye on my brother?" Louis' eyes threatened to pop out of their sockets. "You want me to follow him? Are you implying that I have a death wish? Or are you dying and want to drag me down with you?” As the two of them were talking, Luke finished his brief shower and walked downstairs.

The old man immediately shut up.

Louis only observed his brother carefully. To tell the truth, he was quite curious to know too. What kind of a woman would make his cold-blooded brother spend so many nights away from home like this? 1 Luke walked to the dining table and picked up a set of newspapers, opening them.

Ten minutes later, Susan Armstrong came downstairs as well, while Allison Tanner returned home from outside.

It was time for lunch at the Crawfords.

Just then, Luke's phone rang. 1 He kept his eyes on the newspaper as he picked up the call and asked," What's the matter?” Jason was eating his lunch outside. He had put his heart and soul into working for his boss over the years, and today he was doing his same old job as usual.

He had just sat down and checked his to-do list when he noticed that there was a part of Luke's schedule he had to arrange.

"Mr. Crawford, your high school teacher's birthday is next weekend. Are you attending this year? If you aren't, I'll make the arrangements for your trip to America on that day."

Jason asked carefully.

As he expected, Luke chose not to go.

Luke had only gone once before. Once he found out what they did at the birthday party, he simply found it extremely boring. Everyone there just kept sucking upto him and flattering him non-stop.

After he went that first time, he started having his subordinates send his teacher a pre-booked gift instead. He would then personally call his teacher and wish her happy birthday.

Miss Clinton was just his teacher back then. However, when he had no choice but to leave the town he went to high school in all those years ago, he had asked Miss Clinton to take care of someone for him.

1 She had indeed performed her task admirably too. novelbin That was enough for her to warrant his lifelong gratitude.

Once the call went through, Luke repeated the same things he said every year. He was busy, so he could not personally celebrate her birthday with her, and so on…

Miss Clinton said, "Go do your own thing. Men should always put their careers first anyway." 1 They exchanged a few polite words, but before Miss Clinton hung up, she added. "Oh yeah, there's one thing I'm quite happy about that you might not know. Do you remember that girl who used to be bullied by her classmates? Bianca Rayne? My daughter bumped into her today and even invited her to the gathering next weekend. Bianca looked like she's doing pretty okay, and I think she has you to thank for some of it."

Luke’s hand shook around his phone. He did not seem to expect that Bianca would attend the gathering, so he paused and said, "I’m glad to know she’s doing well.” 'You're a good man, and I'm sure your karma will reward you for it." With those words, Miss Clinton hung up.

The old man peeked at his older grandson’s expression. After the latter hung up, he seemed to grow randomly frustrated and upset! He was perfectly fine three minutes ago! 1 "It's time to eat now. Everyone, come over to the table," the old man reminded.

Luke did not seem to hear him, however. Frowning, he held up his phone and found Jason's number. The second he made the call, he instantly hit the red button to end it again. 1 For a second there, he had called Jason, intending to ask the latter to cancel the trip to America. Luke was somewhat startled by his own actions. She was just a woman, so why did he care about her this much?

Furthermore, she was a crafty woman who never said what she meant and made a habit of keeping him hanging. 1 Claudia stayed in Bianca’s house all morning before she left for home.

Bianca walked her to the subway station entrance.

It was only after she watched Claudua leave that she headed home.

At the entrance to the neighborhood.

Jean's mother, Anna O'Reilly, was standing there. She looked around her, clearly searching for someone.

Bianca was almost at the door now, and she had no choice but to approach the older woman.

She could not hide forever.

Anna's eyes finally settled on Bianca, her rage rising from the depths of her heart. She had been ringing on Bianca's door earlier, but no one replied, so she stood downstairs and waited.

Bianca Rayne had to come down sometime!

"Aunt Langdon," Bianca greeted her politely.

Smack!

Anna slapped Bianca across the face and glared at her, saying, "You have no right to call me that! Every time you do, you might take ten years off my life!"

Bianca held her cheek and felt the stinging pain there for a second before she looked up. "If you have anything to say, please say it now. If you don’t, I’ll be heading upstairs."

"What's with your attitude? Is that how you treat me?" 1 Anna's gaze turned even sharper!

"I'll treat you the way you deserve to be treated," Bianca said, calmly but resentfully. With that, she turned around and walked back into the neighborhood.

Anna was older than her, so she retained a hint of respect for her.

Just a hint, though. 1 Bianca's attitude ignited Anna’s temper, and she immediately rushed after Bianca.

Once she ran into the neighborhood, she grabbed Bianca's collar from behind. Dragging Bianca toward her, she started to beat Bianca up. "You ebil b*tch! What did my son ever do to you? Tell me honestly! He came here to catch you cheating red-handed, but you! You little hussy, you sent him to jail! Your filthy boyfriend is pretty heartless, huh? Where’s the justice?!”

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 44-She Saw Luke Looking At Him Anna was being wholly unreasonable. She yanked Bianca back and forth, messing up the latter's hair and even scratching her on the neck several times. Bianca’s face was still smarting from before, too.

Anna grabbed Bianca's hair and refused to let go, cursing, "A woman like you should wear a scarlet letter! Are you that desperate for money? Will you give up your dignity for money? If you like having a sugar daddy, no one would care, but don't pull my son into this! How are you gonna pay my son back for the past five years of his youth?!"

Bianca could not stand it anymore. Wincing from the pain, she pulled her hair out of Anna's grip and then shoved the woman away forcefully. ‘That's enough!"

Anna was shoved more than a meter away, her face and neck scarlet with anger. Her finger trembled as she pointed at Bianca, "You're a despicable, shameless hussy! How dare you act like you're in the right!"

More people started crowding around them, watching the spectacle.

One of the older ladies tried to stop the fight, holding Anna back as she said, "Don’t be too mad, sis. You can't just listen to a one-sided accusation and decide that your daughter-in-law is cheating on your husband, right?"

Anna knew the woman who was holding her back.

She was one of the women that had been with Daisy that day, gossiping about Bianca’s immoral affair.

"I'll decide for myself if she’s guilty!" Anna glared at the woman. "These are my family matters, stay out of this."

The woman saw that Anna was being completely unreasonable, so she looked at her awkwardly.

By then, Bianca had returned to her unit. She did not want to engage Jean's family in any more pointless squabbles.

Once she got home, the first thing Bianca did was log into a house rental site and look for a new place.

Her phone rang beside her.

The caller was Nina.

Bianca picked up.

Nina sounded utterly flustered on the other end. "Bea, are you okay? Did my mom go to you? Did you bump into her?” "I did, but it's alright now." Bianca knew that Nina was worried about her, and she did not want Nina to worry.

"I'm so freaking mad at my mom and brother right now!" Nina's voice was choked with sobs, i’ll come over right now. Wait for me."

Before Bianca could tell her not to, Nina hung up.

Instead of calling Nina again, Bianca sent her a WeChat message. "Don't be mad. It'll all pass."

"You’re so kind, Bea. My family is in the wrong here." Nina responded quickly and even added a crying emoji.

Bianca lowered her head. What else could she do but be kind?

After almost an hour, Nina finally arrived at Bianca's neighborhood.

When she rang the doorbell, Bianca opened the door for her.

Nina went in and changed into the slippers. Soon enough, she saw Bianca's face and went forward to look at her closer in surprise. Her eyes widened." Did my mom… hit you?"

Bianca nodded.

"She's crazy!" Nina frowned, speechless. Sounding utterly confused, she continued, "I'm really starting to think that my brother and mother have lost their minds. They would rather believe a resident gossipmonger instead of their closest family. I mean, they don't even believe me."

The two of them went into Bianca's bedroom.

Nina saw the website on Bianca's computer. It was a site for rentals.

"Are you going to move?"

"Yeah. That's the only way I can get some peace and quiet," Bianca said helplessly.

Nina went to the fridge to grab a drink. When she returned to the bedroom, she looked at the rental information and said, "Why don't you get a two- room place? I can move in with you, and we can watch each other's backs."

Bianca looked at Nina. She did not want Nina to move out of her house and stay with her.

That would probably alienate Nina from her parents and brother.

Nina seemed to be able to read Bianca's concerns. She said, "Don't worry, I'm not moving out just for you. I’ve actually wanted to get out since the second year of college. My parents got into fights every day…" novelbin Bianca had never seen her parents together in her life.

How was it like to have both parents? Was it peaceful and wonderful? Or was it filled with fights? Either way, she would not get to see it. It was a rare sight that she might never witness in her lifetime.

That afternoon, Bianca and Nina settled on a house.

The next day, the two of them checked the place out, signed the contract, paid the deposit, and moved out. It was all settled within a day.

The third day, Bianca wanted to clean up the place.

Nina was worried that Bianca did not feel up to it, so she went online and hired a cleaner.

"Ah, I finally have my own space…" Nina could not help but sigh happily.

Bianca was glad to be in a new environment too. The frustration that had piled up in her heart seemed to vanish as well.

Her week-long break passed in the blink of an eye.

Bianca had no choice but to gather herself and perk up before returning to work.

To Bianca's surprise, though, she had barely set foot into the design department when she saw Jean sitting at his workstation.

Jean seemed to notice her gaze on him. He looked up and glanced at Bianca.

His gaze immediately made her feel extremely uncomfortable!

That night, Jean had yelled at her from outside the door, calling her an " adulterous pig". That was exactly what his gaze seemed to be calling her today!

Soon, Sue Carter sent everyone an email. 'There will be a meeting at 9.20am sharp today."

Hence, everyone in the design department gathered in their dedicated conference room at twenty minutes past nine. The head of the design department was a strong-willed woman who never bent to any man, so she inevitably had a preference for the competitive women in the team.

During the meeting, they settled on an important project. The head of department ordered Sue to handle it with a handpicked team, and Sue was fond of Bianca, so Bianca was fortunate to join in the project too.

The meeting ended.

Bianca left the room with everyone else.

"Sue, take Bianca with you to the conference room on the 62nd floor.

Hurry!" The head of department was about to enter the elevator when she had to take a call, so she turned around and pointed at Sue and Bianca, who had walked out together.

Sue did not have enough time to ask why, but it had to be something good, so she immediately led Bianca into the elevator and up to the 62nd floor.

As for Jean, who wanted to talk to Bianca, he had no choice but to return to the design department.

There was someone waiting at the door of the 62nd-floor conference room. When they saw Sue and Bianca, they let the two women pass. The women walked into the room quietly and settled in an unassuming corner to listen in on the proceedings.

The atmosphere in the room was quite solemn. Bianca looked up, too afraid to even breathe too loudly. First, she saw the higher-ups of the company, but she was relatively new so she did not recognize all of them. 1 There were nametags on the table. Aside from the top dogs at the company, she also saw that the others were the partners they were supposed to work with for this project.

At the forefront of the room, a woman was presenting the project proposal. Right now, she was explaining the advantages of this particular plot of land. On her right, there was the big boss, as noble and collected as usual.

Bianca hurriedly pulled her gaze back.

She could still remember all those scandalous moments with Luke at her place.

The meeting went on for two hours.

When it ended, it was just time for lunch.

The top dogs left first, followed by the employees in order of their ranks. When Bianca walked out, she did not expect to meet Luke again.

Outside the conference room, Luke was talking to two men and a woman.

If Bianca remembered correctly, all three of them were in positions of power.

Just then, Jason looked over at them, stopping Sue and Bianca with a few words. "If I'm not mistaken, Miss Carter is a decent drinker. You should attend the lunch meeting later too."

His tone made it a command, not a request.

After that, Jason looked at Bianca and purposely invited her. "You should come along too, Miss Rayne. Why don't you listen in on the bosses' design plans?” 1 As long as Bianca was an employee at this company, she had no reason nor right to refuse such an invitation.

While Bianca was feeling lost and flustered, she felt a sharp gaze on her. She turned around and saw Luke looking at her, his gaze unbelievably deep and filled with an unfathomable emotion.

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 45-Luke Crawford Was A Drug Before they headed off to the lunch meeting, Bianca and Sue made a trip back to the design department.

Bianca walked to her workstation and put down the laptop she had brought upstairs earlier. After that, the phone she had left on the table rang once.

It was an unknown number.

The number began with 138 and ended with 6688. The contents of the message was, "Miss Bea, I'm almost on my summer break. Will you be free ten days from now?"

Bianca guessed that the number was Blanche’s.

She quickly replied, "I'm really busy with work, and I just got assigned with an important project. I have to earn money so I can eat and live, so I can’t take you out to play. Sorry.” She clearly expressed her reluctance to have too much to do with Luke Crawford's son.

She hated the way Luke misunderstood her. She had never approached his son because she wanted to seduce him.

In this society, any man as wealthy and powerful as Luke Crawford was probably used to having his guard up against women with ulterior motives approaching him.

If such a woman was lucky enough to not earn his ire, there was a chance she could start a relationship with him. However, such a relationship would only be limited to an exchange of money and bodies.

In short, the heart would never be involved.

Bianca had seen plenty of gossip surrounding these rich and powerful people, and she knew very well that it was not a game a woman like her could play.

Luke Crawford was a taboo, a taboo deep in her heart.

No matter how tempting he was, he could only ever be opium to her, a drug to avoid.

After a long time, Blanche finally replied with, "Oh, okay " The six dots at the end showed just how upset and disappointed the little boy was feeling right now.

She had no choice, though. She had to be wary of his father.

She thought-lf Lanie and Rainie were orphans, children nobody wanted, she might adopt them. She practically had no parents herself right now, so she might take them in and try to raise them as she earned money while reaching for her designer dream.

Unfortunately, they were not orphans. In fact, they had a very prominent man as their father. 3 Bianca steeled her heart and stopped replying.

Putting her phone away, she walked out of the design department.

Jean stood up as well. He had seen just how conflicted she looked, and he did not know what she was thinking about, or who she was thinking about. Even so, he felt furious!

Bianca had barely reached the washroom entrance when a large hand grabbed her from behind!

"What are you doing? We're at work now, let go…" Bianca tried to pull her hand back, looking at Jean with hostility.

"Come with me!" 1 He dragged Bianca into the pantry.

"Let go!" Bianca struggled, if you don't let go, I’ll yell!"

Jean had forced her into a corner, taunting her, "Yell? Are you sure you can still yet? I thought you lost your voice that night after that man f*cked you senseless."

Bianca shrank away. "Jean Langdon, don't be so unreasonable.

"I’m being unreasonable?" Jean said wildly, as though he had just heard an absurd joke. "My fiancee cucked me, but I can't even complain about it? Are you bipolar or something? You got engaged with me on one hand and slept with another man on the other! Have you no shame, Bianca Rayne? How come I never knew you were so loose while we were studying?"

Bianca was so enraged that she burst out laughing. She looked at him and said calmly, ‘Well, now you know. It isn't too late yet."

Jean did not expect her to admit it so freely. It only angered him even further!

After the 96 hours he spent in detention the last time, he did not dare to use violence on her anymore. The veins popping in his forehead, he resisted the impulse and swore at her, "I was so motherf*cking blind! How could I fall for trash like you? Thank goodness I didn't marry you, or else when I'm old and infirm in bed, you might just bring another filthy man into our house."

"Do you know you're being really disgusting?!" Bianca felt cold all over. She did not want to listen to another word, so she turned and left.

Someone threw open the pantry door.

Sue had emerged from the washroom. When she saw Jean's vicious glare, she immediately told Bianca, "Let’s go, Bianca."

Since there were others around, Jean did not go too far. He just looked at Bianca’s back as he left, clenching his fist tightly. No man would be able to stand being cucked like that.

That woman was not his wife, but she was the woman he had chosen.

From the day he chose her, he had decided that she was only ever allowed to love him. novelbin Over all the years they had known each other, Bianca had never disappointed him. Now, though, he knew that she was not the well- mannered woman he thought she was. 2 Marie Rayne said she had been sleeping around even when they were abroad, and she even had several partners! 1 After that intense fight several days ago, he had regretted it and worried that he had misunderstood her, but after the voices he heard with own ears that night a few days ago, he was certain that she really was a dirty b*tch!

There was no way he wanted to touch a filthy whore like that. 1 Still, he was angry and resentful at her for playing him like a fiddle over the past five years. 1 No man would be able to brush off a grudge like that! 1 Bianca went downstairs, utterly dejected.

Sue glanced at the office door and asked her, "Are you alright?” Bianca simply nodded.

"I just came out of the bathroom, and I was too close to you, so I heard everything… I'm sure you're not the kind of woman he says you are. Your ex is nuts, methinks," Sue said.

Bianca did not want everyone to think of her as a whore. She wanted to explain, but she did not know where to start.

Eventually, she decided on telling Sue what she really thought. "Jean wasn't completely wrong. He did find a man at my place, but that was after we had a huge fight and officially broke up."

Sue looked at her, surprised.

Bianca forced herself to continue, "I think that man might like me a little, but he doesn’t really love me, I know that for sure… I can't tell if it's just a whim of his or anything else, but my refusals pale in comparison to his overbearing approach."

Sue was not surprised that Bianca had a suitor.

What did surprise her, though, was the type of man trying to pursue her…

What kind of a man would make her use words like "on a whim" and " overbearing approach"?

The two of them walked to the door, and Sue asked out of concern, "Jean is in the same department as you are, so how will you deal with him from now on? You can avoid him, but he won't avoid you."

Bianca made a decision. "Once I get my salary, I think I'll resign."

Sue immediately stood still and looked at her evenly. 'That won't do. You can't joke about that! I gave you all these opportunities, so you'll be letting me down if you resign."

The moment she said that, Bianca instantly felt guilty. 1 However, it would really be hard for her to untangle some relationships unless she resigned.

There were two luxury cars waiting outside the T Corporation door. When Jason saw Bianca and Sue walk out, he first said, "Miss Rayne, get into this car."

He had Sue take the other car, saying that she was in charge of chatting with their partners. Nevertheless, Sue could tell what was really happening at a glance.

Jason stood outside the door, opening it for Bianca respectfully.

Bianca looked at the man sitting at the back of the Bentley. She was terrified, but she had no choice. She had to go inside.

Luke had been resting with his eyes closed. When he sensed a slender shadow falling over him, he opened his eyes.

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 46-Chapter 46 She Felt Parched The car slowly began to move.

Jason had already made all the necessary arrangements at the hotel in advance.

Bianca sat straight-up in the car. She did not dare to look in front of her, just in case the man accidentally entered her point of view, so she kept looking at the road as it passed them.

Luke was lazily perusing some newspapers. His slender and well-defined fingers held the corners of the paper, and he emanated a chill, as though he was frozen in ice. He did not say anything either.

All of a sudden, Bianca felt parched.

Every time she was nervous, she always wanted to drink some water.

When they arrived at the hotel, Sue did not wait for Bianca to catch up with her. Instead, she enthusiastically greeted the three partners and went into the hotel.

She thought of herself as quite the veteran in the field. Of course she noticed what was happening.

The overbearing man Bianca mentioned who may be pursuing her on a whim was probably the boss of T Corporation himself. In other words, he was her highest superior.

She was also certain that the special assistant to the president, Jason Doyle, knew that as well. He was walking in front of her, looking completely calm and composed.

The proof was that Jason had specially arranged for Bianca to take the boss' car.

Suddenly, Sue Carter was overjoyed. She was a hundred times happier now than she had been when she landed that important project. At the end of it all, she was a pragmatic woman, and she knew that women had it just a little tougher than men when it came to climbing the corporate ladder.

Bianca Rayne was her lucky charm. After all, she was the woman the boss fancied now!

It did not matter if it was just a whim or just a temporary change in tastes. No matter what, the truth remained that Bianca was the only woman the boss was interested in right now.

Also, all men had a common weakness. They always thought the grass was greener on the other side, and the harder it was to get to that grass, the more obsessed they would become with it. Sue was starting to think that she should do something about this.

She would leave playing hard-to-get to that good girl Bianca. Sue's job now was to play matchmaker and get the two of them together.

Her career was in its developmental stage right now, and Sue knew very well that she needed an "ally" who could put in a good word for her with the boss. Right now, the only possible candidate was Bianca.

Soon, all of them reached the hotel.

Bianca was a nobody in the company, so she was relegated to walking two meters behind Luke. As they got out of the car, went through the hotel lobby, and arrived at the elevators, she kept her head down and walked silently without a word.

When the elevator doors opened, she had no choice but to get inside.

Since she was the last to get inside, she had to stand at the front of the elevator. If she wanted to move backward, she would have to squeeze past the man. Since she wanted to avoid all physical contact with him, she just had to stay where she stood obediently.

The elevator doors closed.

When they arrived on the floor with the restaurant, Bianca went inside and took her seat alongside the others.

The food was served, followed by the wine.

Just then, Bianca's phone rang.

"Excuse me, I have to go out and take a call," Bianca stood up and addressed everyone apologetically.

Everyone seated turned to look at her.

Luke, however, did not look up at her. He just said coolly, “Be quick about it."

Bianca immediately went outside.

Once she left the room, Bianca stood in the corridor and took the call." Hello?' The caller was one of her female colleagues from the design department, Nelly Lowe. She wore her heart on her sleeve and was quite friendly to Bianca.

Nelly said in a whisper, "I came out for lunch and saw your boyfriend, Jean. He… He was dragging a woman into the fire escape, looking all suspicious. You know what I think?’ Bianca, "He's a cheating a-hole, he totally is!" Nelly said.

"How is he an a-hole…?" It had barely been a month since they arrived at the company. There was no way he managed to snag another woman at the company so quickly.

If he really had a new girlfriend, he would not keep bothering Bianca, his ex, anyway.

Most importantly, she was engaged to Jean just half a month ago.

If he had a new woman, why would he propose to her?

"I'll put the phone on speaker, so listen but don't say anything. I only heard this cuz I was eavesdropping…" Nelly whispered before turning around the corner to the fire escape door. She put her phone, on speaker, in a flowerpot nearby and then ran far away, worried that the two of them would come out and find her.

"So are you trying to bail on me? That's not what you said when you f*cked me senseless back then."

Bianca paused when she heard that.

"You were the one who seduced me first, weren't you? Are you going to pin the blame on me now?' Jean sounded furious.

In comparison, Marie sounded completely at ease.

'Yes, I seduced you, but you took the bait on my first try. That doesn't make you much better than me, does it? Only a man who can actually control himself has any right to accuse me.” "Shut up, I don't intend on wasting my breath on you. Just do as I say and abort that kid. I don't want it!"

"Do you really think I'll abort it just because you told me to? You were the one who was yelling about knocking me up as you plowed into me, that's why I let you go in raw! That's why I didn’t take any morning-after pills and let you shoot into me. Now I'm really pregnant, and you're saying you don't want to marry me? Who do you take me for, that idiot Bianca?’ Bianca stood in the hotel corridor, closing her eyes gently.

Marie was pregnant, and Jean did not say that the baby was not his. He just wanted to get rid of it. That proved that they had slept together, probably more than once too…

It took at least twenty to thirty days before a pregNelly test could test positive.

Bianca was starting to feel like she was an idiot, just like they said. An idiot among idiots. Marie had been sleeping with Jean for a long time now, but she had not noticed at all.

Her boyfriend had slept with another woman and then come to her, pretending to be all innocent as he fell on one knee and proposed to her. Meanwhile, she was moved to tears and said yes so easily.

Bianca pulled at the corners of her mouth in self-deprecation.

She suddenly remembered that time when Jean went on a business trip soon after they started working at this company. She had sent him a WeChat message, but after they ended their chat, he sent her another random line of words. Now that she thought about it, there was a high chance Marie had sent her that on purpose when she was in his bed.

That night when he was at the hotel and on the phone with her, someone had knocked on his door. After that, he turned off his phone and did not respond to her all day. He had probably been with Marie too…

Bianca did not listen to the rest of their conversation.

She hung up and sent Nelly a message of thanks before returning to the room.

Bianca's seat was right next to Luke's, and she could not ask to change places in front of everyone here, no matter how awkward she felt.

Sue was sitting next to Bianca. When she saw Bianca return, she lifted her chin to gesture at the waiter to fill Bianca's glass with red wine. 1 The waiter walked up to Bianca.

She accepted the wine and heard Sue proclaim loudly, "Bianca, how could you leave for a call and stay out there for so long? C'mon, toast to our bosses as an apology."

A glass of red wine was fine. It would not kill her to drink it.

Bianca walked over to them and then gave them an apologetic toast before draining her glass.

After that, another waiter came to them and filled everyone's glasses.

Bianca looked at the dark red liquid in her glass, feeling a little dizzy. She had chugged that glass too quickly.

She did not even know how much alcohol was in the wine.

The waiter left after filling their glasses.

Bianca held her glass and was about to take her seat when she suddenly tripped on something. Her body tilted and fell toward the left, her wine spilling onto…

Sue subtly pulled her heel back after she had purposely tripped Bianca over. She then stood up, saying, "Why are you just standing there, Bianca? Hurry up and help Mr. Crawford wipe the wine off!"

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 47-His Bold Possessiveness Bianca did not think a mere glass of wine could make her this dizzy.

She shook her head and glanced underneath the tablecloth on the large round table. The table had eight legs, and there was a particularly thick one right in front of her.

Perhaps she had accidentally tripped over that table leg.

She had spilled the glass of red wine all over her boss' pants and directly on the most embarrassing part of a man too. It was completely soaked. Bianca figured she deserved ten thousand deaths right about now.

Luke always thought that she was purposely seducing him. After this incident, she would never be able to stand with her back straight again.

'What are you standing around for? Help Mr. Crawford wipe it off!"

Sue handed her a packet of tissues and hastened Bianca urgently.

Bianca did not have any time to think. Her first reaction was to pull a tissue and press it against her boss's crotch…

The tissue immediately grew drenched once it touched the red wine, turning a seductively deep red.

Bianca soon realized that her fingers were touching something. When she wiped him with a tissue, it was inevitable that her fingers would rub her boss' groin back and forth.

She seemed to feel something scary behind his pants…

That place was growing at a visible rate, too.

Bianca's face inexplicably grew hot…

All three of their business partners were here in the room, men and women included. This was probably deeply embarrassing to the boss. Bianca bit her lip, blaming herself, but she kept getting it worse the more nervous she became. Her fingers were even shaking.

She used up half the packet of tissues, but Luke’s pants were still dirty.

The man had always been something of a clean freak. How could he possibly stand having a meal with his pants soaked with red wine…?

While Bianca was panicked and frustrated, the man suddenly grabbed her wrist in a vice-like grip!

She looked up and met his deep cold gaze. novelbin The man was tall and had deep-set features. Looking into her little face, filled with guilt, he forced the words out through his teeth, "Come with me!"

Everyone else in the room all looked surprised to some extent.

All three business partners had instinctively realized that Miss Rayne was not just another employee to Mr. Crawford.

Jason and Sue were surprised too. They did not expect their boss to act so boldly and unapologetically possessive of Bianca.

He was so open about it that he was practically declaring to everyone here that Bianca Rayne was his woman. Sue Carter secretly thanked her lucky stars, glad that she got along well with Bianca.

Luke dragged Bianca all the way to the elevator, pulling her inside with him.

The doors closed and the elevator rose slowly. She did not which floor they were going to, but when the ride went on and on without stopping, she was finally certain that they were going very high up.

As the elevator rose, she grew even dizzier.

To think she had been taken down by a single glass of wine! Now she knew that she had overestimated her tolerance for alcohol. 1 The elevator doors opened, and the man yanked her by the hand again. They arrived at a suite door, where he pulled out a room card, swiped it, opened the door, and dragged her into the room with one hand around her wrist.

As soon as they went in, the man forcefully pinned her down by the entryway to the suite.

The lights above them were dim, doing weird things to the duo's vision and expressions. Luke’s beautiful features looked like an artistic three- dimensional painting.

His hot kisses rained down on her from above.

She tried to fight back weakly with her whole body, but the man pulled her into his strong and sturdy arms.

"Mm… Mn…" Her small mouth was ravaged by his ferocious assault as he slowly entered her.

Her pants of protest tasted of sweet red wine, such that the man simply could not let her go. He just wanted to swallow all of her struggles down his throat!

"Ah… No! Ah…" Her hair was a mess now. Luke's large hand wandered down her clothes, touching her everywhere through her clothing without a shred of hesitation.

Finally, he pulled off the three buttons on her blouse. They fell onto the carpet without making a sound.

She frantically hammered her fists into his chest, crying.

Luke suddenly stopped kissing her, his large hand holding her fair little face. His voice sounded impatient as he asked, "Why are you crying? Are you saying you don’t want me to touch you like that? Or are you too afraid to admit that your body craves my touch too?” 2 "If you're mad at me for being clumsy, I promise that I’ll stay far away from you from now on." She had interpreted his rough behavior as a punishment for ticking him off.

The taste of red wine between his lips was bold and deep and utterly mesmerizing. True, which woman would not be mesmerized by a man like this?

However, she knew that this infatuation would not last long.

She was afraid that this man would be yet another mirage in the desert. Maybe she would wake up tomorrow and find that he was suddenly gone.

She had known Jean Langdon for four years, but the truth was a slap to her face. He looked like a nice guy, but he may not necessarily be one. On the other hand, even at a glance, she could see that there was nothing nice at all about this rich and accomplished man before her. There was no way he would turn out to secretly be a good guy.

The gap between them was too large. It had been that way since the moment they were born.

Many others, more experienced in life, had solemnly advised the younger generation to find a partner of the same social class. Even if she dated him, she would only be a temporary toy of his.

How blindly proud and confident must she be to even dream about marrying a man like him?

If she ever indulged in those dreams, reality would give her yet another ride awakening.

That was why Bianca did not want to dream. She was especially averse to sweet dreams, because she was afraid that her heart would be empty when she woke up. All that remained would be a dull ache. If she ever had a nightmare, at least she could wake up and comfort herself, saying it was all just a dream.

Luke's broad palm pressed against her waist. His mind was a little addled now, and he plastered his burning-hot face to hers, rubbing her back and forth. His thin lips at her ear, he said, "Were you really that clumsy when you wiped the wine off my pants, or did you purposely want to touch it?"

Of course she knew what he meant by "it".

She must be really drunk, Bianca thought to herself. The tall man before her was like a bright blaze, burning her rational mind away and rendering her unable to think. 2 "Let go of me. My period hasn’t ended yet…" She was panting heavily now, lowering her head and leaning it against his arm.

Bianca used the last strands of her clear mind to remind him that she was still on her period.

She was worried that she would become even more intoxicated at this rate. If he lost control of himself and decided to take her right here and now, it would be a bloody battle…

Bianca did not want to contract anything or put her health at risk.

Tm really dizzy right now. Sorry, but I want to go home." 1 If she had known that she was this weak to alcohol, she should not have forced herself to finish that entire glass of red wine.

She had totally brought this onto herself today.

Luke looked down, suppressing the lust burning through his body. He sighed deeply and raised his hand, rubbing her hair tenderly as he said," Just get some rest for now."

With those words, he picked her up horizontally and placed her on the enormous bed in the suite.

Luke then turned and walked to the closet, opening it and taking a perfectly -ironed suit out from inside.

In her daze, Bianca saw him take off his shirt, pants, and underwear… 1 Luke stood with his back facing her. His sexy figure made her pupils dilate.

Finally, the man slowly and surely put on his clothes, returning to his usual impeccable self. Just then, however, he walked over to her again, considerate enough to try and take her high heels off for her. When he took off her shoes, though, his hand inevitably held her foot…

She moved, a sudden change in her body. She could not help but curl her toes, trying to pull her foot out of his large grip…

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 48-Bianca’s Man Radiates strength!

After all that rubbing and friction, the woman's fair soft foot felt scalded by the burning heat of the man's large hand…

She did not know when Luke let go of her foot. All she remembered was a pain from her lower abdomen that came in waves. Eventually, there was a thin layer of sweat over her forehead…

The dizziness from the wine and the cramps made her curl up on the large, soft, and warm bed. Before she knew it, she had drifted off to sleep.

Every so often, Luke would come to rest in this suite here at this hotel.

The hotel belonged to T Corporation.

From the day he officially returned to the Crawfords and began work at T Corporation, this suite had belonged to him. Unrelated persons were usually not allowed to come even close to this place.

After she fell asleep, he adjusted the air-conditioning temperature and carefully covered her with the blankets.

By the time Bianca woke up, it was already dark outside.

She looked around the unfamiliar hotel room and took a second to react before she finally remembered what had happened.

She propped herself up, certain that she was sober now. There was still a slight dizziness and headache, though.

Her phone was right next to her, so she grabbed it.

There was a text from Sue Carter.

Tm at the company now. The head asked where’d you gone and why you didn't come back. I told her that Jason Doyle had assigned you a last- minute assignment and that you wouldn't be able to make it back today.” Sue had sent that message at half-past four.

Bianca blinked.

Bianca and Sue were both T Corporation employees, and Sue should have seen the way their boss treated her in that room. Bianca figured that Sue should have guessed where she had gone too.

Was that why Sue lied for her? She did it to cover up another fact that would inevitably get tongues wagging.

Bianca did not know to explain, so she simply replied with, ‘Thank you, Sue." 1 "Please don’t be polite with me, just remember to throw me a bone once you become the lady boss… I'll be counting on you, sis…" Sue replied instantly, teasing her.

Bianca paused for a moment before replying, "I know my limits, and I'll keep them." 1 "What limits? Are you stupid? I don’t care, I'll be counting on you anyway," Sue responded, frustrated by Bianca's cluelessness.

Bianca's eyes were filled with sorrow and worry. Who should she count on when Luke grew tired of her and abandoned her in the rain…?

Just as she was chewing her nails and wondering how to pry the suite door open, a warm touch suddenly came up to her from behind. She turned around in shock and met Luke's sharp appraising gaze.

"I'll send you home." With that, Luke pressed his index finger to the fingerprint scanner and opened the door.

The two of them walked out of the room, one after the other.

She took the lead in a mild panic, while the man followed behind her.

It seemed that Luke was the only one staying on this floor of the hotel. It was unnaturally quiet, with not even an attendant in sight. Finally, they went downstairs and the atmosphere turned to the usual rowdiness of a hotel.

As they walked, everyone they passed bowed and greeted the boss.

Bianca quickened her footsteps, putting a huge distance between the two of them. Even so, she could not avoid others' curious gazes. When she wanted to hail a cab, his private ride stopped in front of her. novelbin A cab drove toward her and came to a stop.

Bianca opened the door and immediately got in.

The next moment, though, the man had gotten out of his car and grabbed her wrist, pulling her out of the cab. He then opened the backseat door of his own car and stuffed her inside before politely turning around and apologizing to the cabbie for her. Finally, he got into the car and personally drove her home.

Countless employees had witnessed just how handsomely and fluidly he had completed that entire series of actions.

Bianca wanted to find a hole and bury herself in it.

She was just a lowly employee, a perfectly average woman, but the boss was treating her like this. To everyone else, that could only mean one thing: she must be "craftily” "playing hard-to-get" with the boss, purposely" seducing" the boss to give her "preferential treatment".

Those nasty accusations were going to nail her to the cross.

She was going to be crucified alone.

The black Land Rover drove through half the city before reaching the new neighborhood she was staying in. 1 On the way back, Bianca's stomach started hurting again, and by the end of it, she felt completely weak and powerless. She never got carsick, but the world spun around her when she got out of the car, her knees threatening to give way.

"Be careful." Luke had already gotten out of the car, his large hand naturally supporting her shoulder.

Bianca subtly evaded his touch and turned around, saying, "Have a safe trip, Mr. Crawford. Thank you for sending me home, and I'm very sorry for spilling the wine on your pants earlier today."

Her current neighborhood was much nicer than the previous one, but its location was not as convenient. That made the rent much cheaper.

On the other hand, her new place had many tangible benefits, one of which was a community hospital right outside the door.

"Go see the doctor, or else I'll worry." Luke did not use force on her right here on the main street. Instead, he stood a meter away from here and stared at her.

Bianca looked up. She was standing on the tactile path, while he stood on the left of the car, which was stopped by the curb. The night lights shone and flickered around his body, as though this enormous city only existed to highlight his brilliance.

She just glanced at him before she shook her head and said, it’s alright. I know what my body's like."

Luke took out his phone and dialed a number, his expression dark as he said, "Call Dr. Joyce over. The address is…"

"No!" Before Luke could finish that sentence, Bianca tried to grab his phone.

As she tried to take it from him, though, he just caught her easily, holding her tightly. Her slender wrist was fair and smooth, the faint green of the veins ahead reflecting into his eyes.

"Psych." Luke put down his large hand which was holding the phone. When he looked down at her, his gaze turned really gentle.

Her face pale, Bianca looked at the phone he was holding. It was true; nothing on the screen said he was on a call. He had not really dialed the number at all.

He would if she did not go to the community hospital, though.

Bianca especially did not want Dr. Joyce to stop by again. The first time she met Dr. Joyce, it was because she was drugged with an aphrodisiac, and the second time was at home because she started bleeding halfway through an intense love-making session with him. 2 Each time was more embarrassing than the last.

This time, she had suddenly felt a sinking pain in her lower abdomen when she was in the car. She did know why; maybe it was an after-effect from the aphrodisiac, or maybe it was because she had taken red wine during her period.

Perhaps it was a good idea to go see the community doctor.

Bianca pulled her wrist away from the man's large hand. "I can go by myself, thanks."

With that, she turned around and walked toward the hospital.

It was only twenty meters away from the street.

Bianca reached the doors.

Luke was right behind her, following her into the community hospital dressed to the nines. It was quite the rare sight, and the pretty lady at the reception was stunned for a second, drooling at him.

Bianca said awkwardly, Tm here for the gynae…"

The pretty lady finally reacted, and she was even more nervous than the patient when she keyed in Bianca's request. She even had to retype certain words several times on the keyboard before she could get it right.

As for the man who was making her so nervous, he was sitting at the waiting area with his long legs crossed. He looked just like a calm husband who was patiently staying with his wife until she received her examination results.

The man's stern expression and fixed gaze said it all. He only looked at his wife and no one else, so everyone could tell at a glance that he was a good man and an even better husband.

Bianca took her number and sat down, waiting for her turn.

As soon as she took her seat, a woman poked her and glanced at the man behind her, the man with eyes only for his wife. There was jealousy in her voice as she said, "Where did you find that man? I bet your nightlife has been great after marriage… Tsk-tsk, your man simply radiates strength!"

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 49-A Peculiar Tremble…

A blush crept up Bianca's face.

The lady next to her was not at all restricted with the topics she conversed with Bianca. Instead, she was excitedly chatting about any topic under the sun without the slightest care if there were any men nearby.

'Spill it to me, I'm very curious!" The lady next to Bianca had a look of anticipation on her face.

Bianca was dumbfounded to find that sex-related topics that used to be frowned upon by the society were now being discussed so openly.

"He isn't…" Bianca shook her head.

However, Bianca's 'he isn't my husband' had not been completed when the lady next to her discreetly turned to look behind Bianca with a lustful gaze directed at Luke.

Subsequently, the lady turned around to interrupt Bianca. The lady blushed as she said, "We’re both women. We’ve surely done it with our husbands. What is there to be shy about? Can share some details with me? How many sessions do both of you have in a week? I can see with just a look that your man is very skilled…"

The lady once again shifted her admiring gaze to Luke's body. He was seated not too far behind. She mumbled, "Even his body carries the overbearing sense that he can make a woman climax countless times anytime and anywhere…"

Bianca was rendered speechless.

She felt that she could not continue on with this topic.

Firstly, Luke Crawford was not her husband, and neither did she dare to tempt herself with that thought. Secondly, she did not want to observe nor check if Luke did carry the overbearing sense that he could make a woman climax countless of times.

"Excuse me, I need to use the ladies' room." Bianca picked up her handbag and created an excuse to leave the nosy lady.

After exiting the washroom, Bianca looked for a relatively secluded place to sit down.

She sat in the waiting area for about 20 minutes before her number was called.

Bianca stood up, opened the doctor's consultation room door, and walked in. She followed the instructions of the doctor to remove her skirt and underwear before she laid down on the bed to wait for her examination to commence.

"Lie down lower, further down," the lady doctor in her fifties said after giving Bianca a glance.

Bianca shimmied downward upon hearing the instructions.

Bend your knees and spread your thighs. Open wider," the lady doctor said. Once Bianca was in a good position, the doctor asked again, "Name?"

"Bianca Rayne," came the reply.

Gynecology examination was not something new to Bianca. The first time she underwent a gynecology examination was on a fine day five years ago. Before she had the privilege of bearing a child for that man, she had to ensure that her body was in good health. 1 She could not erase that memory for a lifetime. She had been stripped naked, interviewed with tons of questions, and examined by all that icy cold apparatus. She had to go through the long and arduous process.

At that time, she felt ashamed and angry at the same time.

Although that experience was five years ago, she could not help recalling that whenever she went for a gynecology examination.

The examination was done in less than five minutes.

Bianca got down from that small bed. She looked down and huffed softly. She cleaned herself up before anxiously getting dressed. She then followed the lady doctor out.

After the examination, she sat back in the waiting area to wait for her results.

Outside, those who had completed their examination went in one after the other to get their results.

When her name was called, Bianca stood up. However, she noticed that at one secluded corner of the waiting area, a man stood up as well.

He walked in the direction of the doctor's office.

Bianca stood still and looked at him.

'Is he planning to go in with me?

Since they were not husband and wife, it was rather inappropriate of a man to listen along during a woman's gynecology consultation.

"If there are any problems, I want an immediate follow-up. I will not allow you to take your health lightly." Every word that Luke spoke was full of vigor. That deep voice was so overbearing that it did not give any room for a refusal.

Bianca frowned and wanted to say 'no'.

However, while in the community hospital, Bianca was asked by a random lady regarding their 'marital life'. Perhaps it meant that society had become very open and realistic about these things.

Things were no longer the same as when she was 17 or 18 years old when society shied away from the taboo topic about sex. novelbin Luke Crawford was a successful businessman who had taken over the whole Crawford empire without any early foundation. It proved that he was no ordinary man. Every successful man had one thing in common, and that is they would weigh the pros and cons before doing anything.

For these men, relationships were ranked the cheapest and unworthiest.

Perhaps what Luke was concerned about was if she carried any serious illnesses that could infect a man. Dr. Joyce had been too rushed in her consultation. She only addressed the acute problem and did not delve deeper into things.

What sort of illnesses could be spread to a man that made men so fearful?

Syphilis? AIDS?

As Luke acted like her husband and entered the doctor's consultation room together with her, a dark thought occurred in Bianca's mind. What if the doctor misdiagnosed and announced that she had AIDS? 1 She looked forward to seeing how the man next to her would react when the news was broken to them.

Would he be so frightened that he would immediately dash out the door and never wish to see her again?

After a long time, Bianca found out that tests for any sexually transmitted diseases had to be done at the tertiary hospitals where they had labs to specially test those. The community hospitals did not carry such facilities.

"Doctor, about my condition…" Bianca was rather nervous.

The doctor looked down at her notes and said, "Everything seems fine. You just need to be careful not to catch a cold, avoid strenuous physical activities, and get adequate rest."

The doctor then looked up to observe Bianca. "Based on your attire, you must be an office worker, I suppose. Try to avoid wearing high heels whenever you can for the time being."

Bianca nodded. "Okay."

'There's no serious problem, so don't scare yourself too much. I'll prescribe you some medications which you can easily get from any pharmacy." Once the prescription was written, the doctor noticed the man standing next to Bianca and saw that he only had eyes for his wife. The doctor could not help but throw in a word of reassurance, "Don’t worry, your wife is in good health. I've scanned her ovaries and uterus. Everything seems to be well. Her pelvic bones are in good shape as well. From my years of experience, she seems quite fertile." 1 Bianca flushed red once again. Somehow the saying ‘big butt indicates fertility' appeared in her mind. 2 She could not remember exactly where she had heard that. Perhaps it was during her studies overseas when the Chinese students joked about this during gatherings. Or perhaps it was from the time she visited her grandfather and accidentally heard it from the womenfolk when they were chatting.

Whatever the case, the doctor's mention of her being 'fertile' was embarrassing enough. In addition to that, it was mentioned in front of this man.

Bianca left the community hospital once she received her report.

"Mr. Crawford, I shall get back home to rest," she said to the man next to her without looking up.

'TH walk you to the entrance."

Luke once again took out his coat and draped it over her shoulders. He had predicted that she would reject it, thus he firmly pressed on her shoulders the moment he put it on her.

Bianca breathed in his scent from the coat and felt uncomfortably awkward. She looked up at him and decided that she needed to reject his advance. 1 Luke's gaze was firm. 'The doctor said that you can't catch a cold."

Bianca could not find it in her to get used to such lavish concern. However, upon further thought, if she did not want to spend a longer time with him arguing about this, she would just have to do as he said. Once she got home, he would then leave. That way, it would be short and simple.

With that thought, she turned and headed for her residential area.

The man's steady steps followed behind at a suitable distance. He made sure they had some distance between them, but it was close enough to make it seem like they had some relationship going on. 1 Despite the cool breeze blowing her way, she did not feel cold at all. Instead, she was feeling rather warm. She was trembling, and her heart was racing…

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 50-A Light Touch Would Send You Shivering In Pleasure Bianca had to admit that with this man around to protect her, she was feeling doubly safe.

Which woman in this world would not like to be protected by such an outstanding man?

However, whenever you feel that the man was the right person, you would still end up getting yourself hurt. It was only when you were ladened with wounds that you would understand that love could be as sweet as honey and at the same time, it could suddenly become as cold as the blade of a knife.

What would this man leave for her in the end? She did not know, and neither could she afford to bet on it.

Bianca did not say anything to Luke until they reached the entrance of her residential area.

She did not plan to invite Luke in as she did not want him to know which floor and which unit she lived in. Otherwise, he might suddenly appear with his kids at her door.

She was now sharing rent with Nina.

If Nina saw them together, it might bring up some unnecessary misunderstandings.

At the office, Jason and Sue had misunderstood her relationship with their boss. That had been awkward enough. She did not want to cause another misunderstanding about her private life.

Besides, she had just broken up with Jean not too long ago. If Nina saw that she was being escorted home by Luke so soon after the breakup, even if Nina believed her, it was unavoidable that Nina might mistake her for a promiscuous woman.

"Mr. Crawford, have a safe trip back." Bianca passed him his coat without looking up.

Luke stood about half a meter away from Bianca and lowered his head to look at the coat. The pure black coat was being squeezed tightly by her delicate and fair hands.

He did not receive his coat.

Under the neon lights, Luke lit a cigarette and took a drag from it before looking at her. He asked with a deep voice, "What are you afraid of?" 1 Bianca was afraid of him as a whole. His perfect physique, noble identity, each of his movements that appeared so regal no matter how minute it was… All of him made her feel that she could only look from afar and not get closer.

"Mr. Crawford, why do you need to make life difficult for me?" 2 "Why do I need to?" This question made Luke take half a step forward. He was now standing right in front of her. Right at the moment when she had the slightest hint of wanting to avoid him, he raised his hand and caught her lower jaw, caressing her with his thumb before answering, "I have my reasons for making life difficult for you." 1 Bianca looked into his unreadable eyes.

'What is his reason for making life difficult for me?

'Is it a global man’s disease that the best things are those that remain unattainable? Once they successfully conquer it, they'll gradually lose interest. With a wave of a hand, I'll then be worthless, and finally, I'll regain my freedom again?’ 1 Bianca turned her head away slightly. Her jaw was released from the man's long and strong fingers.

The hand that was still holding the cigarette lifted. Luke placed the cigarette between his lips, but he still had no intention of retrieving his coat from her.

Bianca was feeling exasperated and decided to be forthcoming about it. "I hope that Mr. Luke will show me mercy and not play these games with me.

I believe that you don't have a lack of women around you. Thin or plump, tall or short, you can have any woman you want."

Luke blew a puff of smoke in her direction. With arched brows, he said," Continue."

Bianca stood against the neon lights. Her eyes shone brightly from the reflection of the lights. They looked as if they had tears in them. 'I do not wish for any riches or fame in this life. I only want a stable and healthy life. Thus, I have no intention of grabbing on to your legs, Mr. Crawford, nor do I have any dreams of turning from Cinderella into a princess.

"I believe that there are plenty of other women who are praying fervently that they can grab on to your legs and go above others. From A-list actresses, daughters of powerful men, aristocratic young ladies… Any of them can be your pick, Mr. Crawford…"

Luke gazed deeply at the woman in front of him. On the surface, he looked expressionless, but on the inside, his heart was going through a heavy storm where the ocean tossed and crashed around. Had he ever willingly tagged behind a woman?

Even his mother had never received such treatment from him.

Did she not notice how he had humbled himself for her?

"Do you think that anyone can grab my legs as they please? For you who had easily shivered in pleasure when my third leg lightly touched you, you're now setting up a gateway," Luke said some unruly things toward her with a cold expression.

Bianca looked up in shock. Even the neon lights could not mask the blush that crept up her cheeks…

"Wait for me in this spot. You can let your imagination run wild about what your consequences will be for disobeying me," Luke said. He then took his coat from her hand while taking a drag from his cigarette before turning to leave.

Bianca was left stranded on the spot in a daze. novelbin Luke’s back view was tall and straight, filled with authority.

She closed her eyes and could not help but compare. 'No matter how much alike Luke is to Senior Crawford, he is not Senior Crawford at all. The former is a gentleman, a prince charming. The latter has a wicked tongue, a bad temper, and makes everyone want to avoid him. 2 'There is such a huge personality difference between these two men. How can these two be the same person!' Bianca was lost in her thoughts and did not notice an Audi Q5 approaching from the corner of the street.

Jean, who was frowning in the driver seat, made Marie’s mood sour as well. He planned to drive to one of the parking lots at a nearby hypermarket when Marie suddenly called out, "Stop the car!" 1 Without looking at Marie, Jean said annoyingly, 'The road is not your house. We can't stop anywhere we like."

"I saw Bianca. Stop the car!" Marie shifted her gaze from outside the car to glare at Jean. 'Your darling is just outside. Aren't you going to stop the car?"

As expected, Jean's expression changed when he heard Bianca's name being mentioned.

Marie was utterly disappointed and felt that the baby inside her was a joke. She screamed at him, "Didn’t you reprimand me for being the cause of you losing your darling? Alright, I will put in a few good words for you right away and help you to reconcile with her!"

Ignoring Jean, Marie immediately opened the door and stepped out.

Jean wanted to call her back, but nothing came out of his mouth. He merely frowned, turned his steering wheel, and drove toward a parking spot.

Bianca was shocked to see Marie appear.

"How interesting to see your expression like this. You didn't expect to see me in this area, did you?" Marie was expressionless as she stared straight at Bianca before her lips moved again. "It was so easy to find out where you live. You seem to have forgotten to tell Claudia Clinton that we sisters aren't on good terms."

Ever since Claudia and Bianca had bumped into each other that one time, Claudia knew where Bianca lived. 1 As Kevin's wife, Jennifer had to follow her husband back to his familial home at Luojiazhen. Out of curiosity, Marie followed them back a few times.

Each time Claudia heard that the Raynes were back, she would always go over to find out how Bianca was doing. After a few trips, Claudia became familiar with Marie. 1 In front of others, Marie would always hide her dark streak and acted like a pure and innocent girl, thus Claudia never suspected anything.

Bianca recalled what she had heard during the day about Marie being pregnant with Jean's child. There was no anger within her. Instead, she was a sea ofcalm.

"When are you and Jean getting married? Don’t forget to let me know. I'm happy that both of you have found love in each other." Bianca somehow felt that both of them were a suitable match for each other.

'Why? Are you acting tough despite all those wounds in your heart? I will not laugh at you even if you admit that you are heartbroken that I snatched your boyfriend!" Marie's voice may not be loud, but each word was piercingly painful.

Bianca chuckled. "It's just a pair of shoes that I have grown tired of. I felt that they were dirtied and torn, thus I threw those shoes into the bin.

Whoever picks them up afterward has nothing to do with me. What should be thrown is already thrown. There's nothing for me to be heartbroken about."

With that said, Bianca noticed that Marie could no longer hold back a stoic expression.
