Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 451-How Could She Miss Out On the Opportunity?

Charmaine frowned and looked at the CD in Leia's hand. She did not ask any questions and grabbed it.

She chuckled and said, "I'll go through hell and high water for you."

Giving a woman a CD was a small matter for Charmaine.

The most important thing to her was appeasing Leia so that they would maintain a friendly relationship.

If she did not have Leia in her corner, she would not be accepted that easily among the socialites.

Leia whispered something in Charmaine's ear again to tell her what to do.

Before Leia left, she gave Charmaine a threatening look as she said, ’ Remember, don’t mess this up. Otherwise, I'll make sure that you're shunned by all your friends!"

Charmaine was intimidated by Leia’s words.

She was a nobody. If Leia wanted to find fault with her, she would not know how to keep her foothold within the circle.

Charmaine continued to fawn over Leia. She gestured her two thumbs up and swore, "Trust me on this, Leia. I will do this for you! How dare that woman snatch your crush? Your love rival is my enemy… Give me some time, you'll definitely be satisfied with the outcome."

When Leia got Charmaine’s assurance, she gave a faint reply.

Seeing that Leia was not as angry, Charmaine continued to ask, "By the way, Leia, who do you want me to seduce?" "Wayne Blatt, the youngest son of the Blatt family!" Leia felt a pang of hatred when she mentioned his name.

"Wayne…Blatt?" Charmaine tried her best to recall the names of the male socialites. novelbin

As if flipping through a phone book, after a few minutes, her eyes suddenly brightened and she remembered who Wayne Blatt was!

The Blatts were an extraordinary family who held high positions in the military and political circles. The eldest son was a politician and the second son was a businessman. The youngest son was in special forces all year round, and he was rarely seen in public.

There was one time that she was fortunate enough to have met Wayne. He appeared tall and mighty. His rugged image left a deep impression on her.

When she thought of Wayne's sturdy body and bulging muscles, Charmaine got excited.

Besides, it was hard to be close with the Blatts. If she managed to seduce the youngest son of the Blatt family, however…

Immediately, Charmaine combed her bangs and said, "Don't worry about it, leave everything to me. I promise to deliver on my promise to you, but…"

Seeing how she readily agreed to her request, Leia thought to herself,' Charmaine is such a sl*t!' "But what?" She asked.

Charmaine said embarrassingly, "The third son of the Blatt family is not home all year round and his whereabouts are fairly uncertain. Even if I wanted to seduce him, where can I find him?"

Leia herself was not sure about Wayne’s whereabouts. She thought about it for a moment and said, "You don’t have to worry about it. I'll let you know when Wayne returns to A City. Charmaine, the Blatt family is one of the best in A City. I've created this opportunity for you, but it's all up to you whether you can captivate Wayne's heart and become the daughter-in-law of the Blatt family."

Charmaine nodded ecstatically and said, 'If I can become a member of the Blatt family, I will never forget your kindness toward me, Leia."

Leia looked at how hard Charmaine tried to flatter her. She felt disgusted in her heart. "That's it for today. I have something else to do, I will contact you in a few days. Remember, you must give the CD to Bianca."

After Charmaine gave her assurance again, Leia left.

When Charmaine could no longer see her, Leia sneered.

The CD would fall into Bianca's hands through Charmaine. Even if something happened, all the blame would be directed at Charmaine, and it would have nothing to do with Leia.

In the corridor, Charmaine looked at Leia’s haughty back, her previous flattery turned into disdain.

She spat in Leia’s direction.

'Who does she think she is?! She's just an orphan fortunate enough to be adopted by Mr. Norman. How precious and noble does she think she is?’

T Corporation.

Bianca, who had always been very efficient, felt restless at work today. She had a bad feeling.

In a daze, she handed over the design drafts that she had been working on over the last two days to Bella.

Bianca rubbed her eyes and sighed softly. She felt that her body had gotten much weaker after she got pregnant.

Nina, who sat opposite of her, saw that Bianca did not look too well. She put down her work and asked caringly, "You don't look too good Bea. Are you okay? Maybe you should take the day off."

Bianca endured the uncomfortable feeling she felt and smiled at her reluctantly. "I’m fine…"

Before she could finish her words, she heard a pair of high heels walking toward her.

That was followed by Bella's angry voice. "Bianca, is this the design draft that you submitted?"

Bella threw a design draft at Bianca's face and looked displeased.

Bianca hurriedly took the design draft and flipped through it. "Yes, Bella, this is the design draft that I submitted." "What were you thinking?! The thickness of the load-bearing wall is marked incorrectly. How careless can you be?! How can you call yourself an employee of T Corporation?! Fortunately, I noticed your mistake before it was sent to the customer. If the design is handed over to the customer and they follow through with it, can you bear the consequences if the building collapses?"

As Bella continued to criticize her, Bianca found the page of the loadbearing wall and realized that she did label it wrong.

She had placed the decimal point in the wrong position. It might only be one decimal point, but it was already a fatal error for an architect.

Bianca was in a cold sweat, and she was also grateful that Bella had noticed her mistake. Otherwise, the consequences could be severe.

She lowered her head and whispered an apology to Bella, "I'm sorry, Madam, I won't make that mistake again."

Bella's furious gaze swept across Bianca's petite face, and she continued to criticize her without restraint. "The design plan does not allow any room for error. Do you know how much a mistake as

such would cause the company in terms of losses? Are you a pig, Bianca?"

Since Bianca entered T Corporation, Bella had tried to pick on Bianca by every means possible. She stared at her like a poisonous snake all day, trying to pick out her mistakes, but Bianca had been very careful. She had never made a single mistake since she joined T Corporation, which infuriated Bella.

Now, after finally catching a mistake that Bianca made, how could she let go of the opportunity to humiliate her?

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 452-Luke’s Questioning!

Bella screamed at Bianca mercilessly.

Bianca was flushed red, but she could do nothing but endure Bella's screaming. After all, she did make a mistake.

She wanted to give herself a few tight slaps when she thought of the potentially fatal mistake that she made.

'Why didn't I pay attention when I was working? How can I make such a stupid mistake after working for so long?'

With both her fists clenched, Bianca assured Bella, "I'm sorry, Bella, I swear this kind of mistake will never happen again, please trust me."

Bella continued screaming at her, "You are nothing but a pretty face! Don't be so smug just because of your minor achievements. Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you have someone behind you? An irresponsible employee like you should resign voluntarily. My department is not a place for good-for-nothings!"

Seeing that Bianca was beaten down to nothing, Sue immediately got fired up.

She stood up from her seat and defended Bianca, "Bella, I trust that our colleagues are well aware of Bianca's capabilities. She has been giving her all since she joined our department. In the past six months or so, she has never made any mistakes. Instead, because of her outstanding and innovative designs, we have received endless orders. How can you deny her of her efforts?"

Nina stood up too. "Bella, the management is well aware of the revenue that Bianca has created for the corporation, but you verbally tear her down just because she made a single mistake. Don't you think

that you've gone overboard? Many newcomers have made more mistakes than Bianca, some even more serious than this one, and I have never seen you embarrass them like this.'

Nina's words were somewhat ironic.

It was true that every newcomer to T Corporation's design department would eventually make a mistake, no matter how careful they might be.

Although Bella would criticize them, she had never been so rude and mean.

If people who witnessed the scene did not know that they had a superior and subordinate relationship, they might think that they were enemies!

Sue and Nina rattled on and on like two muskets.

To be honest, they knew that it was unwise to call out their superior in the workplace. If Bella wanted to make their lives hard, she could have deducted their bonuses and allowances. In serious cases, they would even lose their jobs.

However, Sue and Nina were not afraid.

One reason was that they were Bianca’s friends, and Bianca had backing in top management. On top of that, they genuinely thought that Bianca was doing a great job. Just because she made a mistake, she was ridiculed and insulted by Bella in public. They would not let it slide.

The employees of the design department stopped their work and watched the drama unfold.

Everyone knew that Bianca was romantically involved with Mr. Crawford.

How dare Bella scream at Bianca like this? Was she not afraid that Bianca would complain to the CEO and have her fired?

Bella was furious that her subordinates spoke out against her in front of so many people. She sneered as he said, "Well done, all of you! Bianca made a mistake, and you chose to be on her side instead of correcting her!"

After she said that, Bella threw the folder in her hand on the desk and went to Mavis's office.

However, to her annoyance, Ms. Laviere was not in her office.

Bella hated Bianca and disliked Sue and Nina, Bianca's best friends at work. Now that they were united against her, Bella hated all of them.

After Bella left, everyone went back to their work.

"Bianca, why are you swallowing your anger? Why didn't you say anything when Bella screamed at you like that? You are making yourself an easy

target." Nina did not understand why Bianca behaved as such.

Bianca smiled bitterly as she said, "I did make a mistake and I should be criticized. I don't have any grounds to retaliate."

Sue wanted to tell Bianca to stand up for herself, but after seeing how pliant she was, she thought maybe Bianca was uncomfortable because she was just scolded. So, she patted Nina on the shoulder and signaled her to be quiet.

The two of them gave Bianca space to calm down.

Bianca was not sure why, but she had an ominous feeling that something was going to happen. Therefore, she was careless when she was working, which led to the mistake that she made.

After that, Bianca put aside her anxious thoughts and forced herself to not overthink. She continued her drawing, but she continued to make mistakes on simple tasks…

Her mind was not on the task at hand. For the first time in forever, Bianca had the idea of going to the CEO's office to look for Luke.

Usually, Luke would be the one taking the initiative to call her whenever he wanted to see her.

She wondered if she should go over…

Finally, Bianca decided to send him a message.

Bianca downloaded a cute emoticon package. She chose a cute GIF with the words "Love and Kisses" and sent it to Luke…

However, that did not improve Bianca's mood.

In the CEO's office. novelbin

Mavis stood by Luke's desk and reported on her work in Western Europe.

"Mr. Crawford, the projects in Western Europe have been completed. Last month, the team that I led successfully signed a $700 million deal with the British AC Design Group. It's a good way to start the new year." "Not bad. How do you want to be rewarded? As long as I can do it, I will definitely say yes."

Luke looked at Mavis, a glimmer of appreciation flashed through his eyes.

He had always been generous in terms of monetary rewards for the employees who had made significant contributions to the Corporation.

Mavis hesitated for a while and finally said what was in her heart, "Mr. Crawford, I want to be transferred back to the Headquarters. Can I?"

She worked so hard to complete the tasks that he assigned to her, not only to prove that she was good enough to be with him but more importantly, she wanted to be by his side instead of being pushed farther and farther away.

Mavis's gaze revealed how desperate she was to transfer back to the T Corporation headquarters. She stared straight into Luke's eyes, which made him squint slightly.

He could not figure out why Ms. Laviere was so excited to be transferred.

Suddenly, Luke thought of the lace panties that showed up in his car unexpectedly a few months ago.

It had caused a rift in his relationship with Bianca. The trust between them crumbled because of that.

Luke probed, "Ms. Laviere, when you rode in my car the last time, did you leave any personal belongings in my car?"

Mavis became nervous when she heard what he said. Her heart raced as she thought to herself, 'Luke, he…he doesn't know anything, right?’

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 453-You Can Kiss and Hug Me All You Want Once I'm Home

Mavis was mentally strong.

In the face of Luke's piercing gaze, she kept a cold smile on her face, even though her chest felt tense.

She knew how shrewd Luke was.

She dared not lie to him, so she admitted it graciously. "Yes, Mr. Crawford. When I sat in your car the last time, I went to the convenience store and bought some lingerie, but when I got home, one piece was missing. I didn't dare to ask you about it. After all, it is lingerie, and I felt awkward…"

The always capable and cold Mavis showed a rare feminine look of embarrassment when she spoke of it.

Seeing Mavis admitting it generously without the slightest concealment, Luke was less suspicious.

If there had been any seed of doubt, it was now gone.

He even thought it was funny that Bianca had made such a fuss about an unidentified piece of women's clothing.

His woman was good in everything but possessive in her feelings.

However, he loved her and doted on her. He could let her have her way and tolerate everything about her. i

Mavis had worked for him for years. Luke knew how good she was at her job.

Ms. Laviere was one of the top executives in the company who had generated the most wealth for the company with her dedication to work. However, she did not seem interested in men and was very

deferential to him.

It never occurred to Luke that his female subordinate had any other thoughts for him.

"I see. So it was an oversight.1' Luke nodded in an enlightened way.

Mavis felt relieved when she heard him say that.

"I hope you don't make the same mistake again, Ms. Laviere. I hate having other people's personal belongings in my car, especially women's lingerie. That can create misunderstandings."

Mavis's body and nerves tensed up.

Hearing that, Mavis, who knew his character well, knew that the CEO would not pursue the matter further and breathed a sigh of relief. "Yes, Mr.

Crawford."

Clever as she was, she would only use such a dirty trick once. She would not allow the same thing to repeat.

"Okay." Luke stopped looking at her and went back to his work.

Mavis did not leave immediately but looked at him with fascination as he worked hard.

While Luke reviewed the documents, his phone suddenly beeped, indicating that a message had arrived. Seeing that it was a message from Bianca, he unprecedentedly put away the work at hand and opened the messenger app.

When Luke saw the cute GIF that Bianca sent him, a gentle smile appeared on the corners of the man's stiff lips.

Then he replied to Bianca's message. novelbin

Luke: [Okay, you can kiss and hug me all you want once I'm home.]

After thinking about it, Luke sent a smirking emoticon. Luke's expression softened as he thought of Bianca's expression upon receiving the message. 1

Mavis was shocked by Luke's sudden change in expression.

In her eyes, Luke was incisive, cold, fierce, resolute, and decisive. He had never shown an expression like that…

Mavis tilted her head a little to stealthily see who Luke was talking to, but she saw a cute profile photo with the remark "Darling".

'Darling?'

As if a bolt of thunder had struck her heart, Mavis was frightened and panicked!

When did Luke get so close to that woman that he even called her" Darling?"

Mavis's eyes suddenly became blurred. Her heart seemed to be weighed down by a thousand pounds of stone that left her breathless.

She froze in front of Luke’s desk, just like a wooden sculpture, unable to move.

Her eyes misted up as if tears would fall in the blink of an eye.

Luke looked up and saw Mavis standing in front of his desk. He asked aloud, "Ms. Laviere? Is there anything else?"

The man's deep, magnetic voice woke Mavis, who realized her misdemeanor.

Concealing her sad eyes, Mavis smiled like usual. "Sorry, Mr. Crawford. I'm good, bye for now."

Turning to leave, she dared not look at his handsome face that was indifferent to her.

It was a face that doted on another woman but bore no gentleness for her.

Soon, it was time to get off work. Luke had to work overtime. He wanted the driver to take Bianca home, but she insisted on waiting for him to go home together.

Luke was afraid that the pregnant Bianca would be hungry, so he sent her to a famous dessert cafe near the company and asked her to wait there.

The dessert cafe was large and crowded. The environment was very comfortable.

The cafe had a variety of desserts that were unique and beautiful. Their food had an appetizing milky fragrance.

Bianca sat on a window seat and savored their signature stroopwafel.

The stroopwafel had a hard and crispy exterior. The outside was roasted with a layer of snow-colored syrup, while the inside was filled with caramel and honey. It tasted sweet but not cloying.

As Bianca ate her dessert, Charmaine walked in with her shades on.

Charmaine had kept her eye on Bianca since Leia gave her the secret mission.

Since it was a secret, Charmaine would not stupidly go to T Corporation and openly look for Bianca. Instead, she chose to spy on her every move and try to find the best opportunity to communicate with her alone.

She did not expect herself to be so lucky as to find her alone in the dessert cafe on the first day of surveillance.

Remembering Leia's enticing offers, Charmaine pushed open the glass door of the cafe, and her tall figure walked in.

Charmaine sat down opposite of Bianca, which astounded her.

"Ms. Rayne, Bianca Rayne?" Charmaine took her shades off and revealed a gorgeous face.

Looking at the woman dressing so fashionably it made her look rather gaudy, Bianca asked in confusion, "I'm Bianca Rayne. May I ask who you are?"

Charmaine sized up Bianca's smooth, fair face and lit a cigarette in front of her.

She said bluntly, "You don't need to know who I am, but I want you to leave Luke."

Bianca had been very sensitive to the smell of cigarettes since she was pregnant. She was already upset when the strange woman smoked freely in front of her. After hearing what Charmaine said, she looked vacantly at the woman opposite as if she had been injected with anesthetic.

'Who is this woman? Why is she asking me to leave Luke?'

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 454-Bianca Felt Sweet And Intoxicated

Bianca stared at Charmaine and did not let herself lose her cool. Her gentle eyes were cold.

She took a sip of milk. "I don't know who you are, Miss. I don't know if you're Luke's secret admirer or if you've had some feud with him in the past, but I can tell you this for certain. I'll never leave him unless he asks me to. Who are you to make me leave him?'

Charmaine narrowed her eyes as she looked at the calm Bianca, and her smoking hand paused.

The girl in front of her was graceful and pretty. She looked nice, but she had a sharp tongue and spoke on point. She could not be underestimated. It made Charmaine feel as powerless as if she was punching cotton.

Charmaine blew a smoke ring. She picked up a dessert from the table and unceremoniously stuffed it into her mouth. "Not bad. This caramel pudding is delicious."

The woman who appeared out of nowhere made Bianca lose her appetite.

She got up gracefully and looked down at Charmaine from a commanding position. "Take your time with these desserts if you like them. I'm leaving."

Perhaps it was her unlucky day to meet that lunatic.

It was dinner rush hour in the evening, and there were many people in the dessert cafe. However, Bianca sat alone in a remote corner with a certain distance from the other tables and was covered by green plants.

Therefore, the other people did not pay much attention to them.

Bianca grabbed her bag to leave.

Charmaine stretched out her long leg and blocked her way. "What's the matter? Are you feeling guilty that you dare not talk to me face to face? You don't have what it takes to be with Luke. Can't you look at yourself in the mirror?"

Bianca glanced at Charmaine. There seemed to be a smile in her eyes, but the depths of her eyes were cold. She said sarcastically, 'I might not have what it takes, but Luke loves me anyway. You're not good enough to go after Luke either, so aren't you worse than me?” "You…" The smile on Charmaine's face froze after being mocked.

She did not expect Bianca to be so stubborn, so she immediately showed her true colors. "Bianca, don't be shameless. If you're smart, leave Luke of your own accord. Otherwise, I'll submit this to the Public Integrity Committee!"

Charmaine fiddled with the CD in her hand.

Bianca looked at the CD. A sense of foreboding rising in her heart.

She tried to grab it, but Charmaine purposely dodged, and she failed.

Charmaine held the CD between her index and middle fingers and blew a large smoke ring at Bianca. 'The stuff on this CD is about Luke. I guarantee you'll be interested in the contents… Ms. Rayne, I’ve made more than one copy of this CD! I'll only give you two months to leave Luke before May 1st. Otherwise, if I get upset and turn it in, you should know how serious things can get.’

With that, Charmaine threw the CD onto the table. She twisted her dainty waist and stepped away on her high heels.

Bianca blankly picked up the CD. She paused for a moment and slipped it into her handbag.

No longer in the mood to savor desserts, Bianca felt a rush of panic.

'Who the hell is that woman? Why would she force me to leave Luke?

'Is she his admirer? Or did someone send her? What secret does the CD hold that made the woman so confident that I'll leave Luke of my own accord?'

Endless questions kept pouring out that Bianca's head felt like exploding.

Just as she was distraught, Luke appeared.

The man wore a suit and leather shoes, walking calmly and gracefully. His attire was so exquisite it was impeccable. Both his blue tie and white shirt exuded a hint of elegance. His demeanor was so elegant and mature that he caught the attention of the customers in the dessert cafe.

When she saw Luke, Bianca, who was always quiet and reserved in front of others, threw herself into his arms.

"Luke…" Bianca's voice sobbed a little. The grievance she had suffered from Charmaine went out of control.

Luke wrapped her in his strong arms. He lowered his head and buried his angular jaw in her fragrant hair. Then he kissed her tenderly on the forehead. ‘What’s wrong? Is the dessert here bad? Or did their service upset you? Let's not eat here the next time, okay?”

Seeing Bianca's aggrieved expression, Luke thought she was bullied at the dessert cafe, and his expression immediately darkened.

He was about to wave for the waiter when Bianca shook her head and snuggled quietly in his arms. "I'm fine. The desserts here are good, and the service here is great."

Luke frowned disbelievingly. "But you're upset."

Her every move was on his radar because he loved her. Even a frown from her worried him.

Bianca wanted to tell Luke that Charmaine had come to her, but on second thought, she should wait until she had seen the contents of the CD before making a decision. 3

He was already very busy with his work, and she would seem useless to bother him for such a trivial matter.

So many women tried to court the man. If he had to deal with each one personally, would he have enough energy for anything else? She had to learn to outsmart all kinds of mistresses!

As long as Luke loved her, she had nothing to fear! 1

There was no need to give up just because of a strange woman's threat!

Bianca laughed at herself at the thought of that and suddenly felt motivated!

Bianca turned to Luke and said a little sheepishly, "Maybe pregnant women are so moody because of hormones. Luke, if I'm too dramatic one day, will you be impatient or angry with me?"

She waited with bated breath for Luke's answer.

Luke's handsome and charming face was full of seriousness, and he said solemnly, "You are my baby. I will never be impatient with you."

Bianca felt sweet and intoxicated.

Her mood, which had been depressed because of Charmaine, was suddenly much better.

Bianca was attracted by Luke's expression and appearance. The man's every move-even without speaking, just one look from him was the best sweet talk in the world.

Besides, he said she was his baby.

It made her giggle like a teenage girl…

Bianca smiled. Her long eyelashes were charming, and her eyes glimmered brightly like stars. Especially the light dimples on her cheeks made her delicate face seem more refined and completely attracted Luke's attention.

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 455-Stunned By Luke's Overbearing Words!

Seeing Luke staring at her, Bianca joked with some embarrassment,' What's the matter? Why are you staring at me? Are there flowers on my face?"

Luke came to himself. His dark, bottomless eyes were full of tenderness." You don't have flowers on your face, but to me, you're more beautiful than flowers."

Bianca blushed.

Luke chuckled and gave her a peck on the lips.

Out of the corner of her eye, Bianca saw many customers in the dessert cafe, and among them were many children eating with their parents. That made her cheeks even hotter.

"Stop it. We're in public,' said Bianca.

Luke naturally knew that this was not the occasion for intimacy. He pinched her nose; that was his favorite affectionate gesture toward her." Come on. Let's go home."

Luke accompanied Bianca as they left the dessert cafe.

A City was worthy of being an international metropolis. At night, the neon lights shone, and the heavy traffic was like the Milky Way. Everywhere was steeped in prosperity.

Luke drove Bianca back to Crawford Manor.

Today was the 15th. It was the day when the Crawford family would have dinner together again. He was going to take her home and tell his family that he was going to marry Bianca.

Bianca had no idea about Luke's plans. She was a little nervous. She felt depressed and uncomfortable every time she visited Crawford Manor.

However, she had no choice. It was Luke's house.

Besides, Lanie and Rainie often stayed there.

Despite her dislike of the place, she had to learn to live with it.

Crawford Manor’s dining room was extravagantly furnished.

It was still as depressing as ever when the family had their dinner, but it was better than in the past.

Old Master Crawford was nicer to Bianca. Allison and Susan were just as cold toward her, but Bianca felt that she could ignore them.

She fed her two children with great care as usual.

Old Master Crawford, who had been secretly observing Bianca, became increasingly satisfied with her.

'Not bad. Bianca is a kind and gentle woman. Although her family background is not that great, her character and appearance are excellent.

She is good enough to be my granddaughter-in-law.’

Halfway through the meal, Luke suddenly put down his cutlery, wiped his hands gracefully, and made a solemn announcement to his family. "I want to tell all of you something. Bianca and I are getting married on the 1 st of May."

Other than the excited twins, the rest of the Crawford family were stunned.

Old Master Crawford glanced at Luke and said in a deep voice, "I won't meddle in your affairs. As long as you won't regret it."

Allison finally came to herself and could no longer eat.

She put her cutlery on the table and looked at Bianca fiercely. ’No, I won't allow it." Then she turned to Luke and said, "Son, you can date this woman, but I won't allow you to marry her!"

She still could not accept the fact that Bianca was going to be her daughter -in-law.

Because Bianca was pregnant and Allison wanted grandchildren, she turned a blind eye to their mess. However, she still harbored a grudge against Bianca.

Allison planned to find a way to get rid of Bianca after she delivered the baby, and then she would choose a socialite with a good family background for her son to marry.

Unexpectedly, her son was going to marry her in two months. How was that possible?

Susan stared at Bianca's stomach and said nothing, but the schadenfreude in her eyes was hard to conceal.

Susan was a little dismissive. She did not think Luke was so negligent that he wanted to marry such a woman with no family background.

Louis was going to marry a socialite of the same pedigree!

Louis helped himself to some food. As he ate, he said, "Congratulations, Luke. You and Bianca have finally made it. I'll be your best man."

Allison gave Louis a murderous look.

Louis was too lazy to bother with Allison and ignored it.

Allison tried hard to persuade Luke, "Son, it's too early to get married on May 1st; it's only less than two months away. You won’t have time to make all the preparations. You're my only son, and your wedding is important. If we don’t make sure that it’s perfect, the outsiders will laugh at us. What do you think about having the wedding after Bianca's baby is born?"

Luke held Bianca's hand and said firmly to everyone, "Grandfather, Mother, the reason for my presence today is to tell everyone the fact that I am going to marry Bianca. The wedding date is May 1st, and it will proceed with or without your consent. I welcome you with open arms if you're attending, and I won’t hold it against you if you don't want to come. I'll hold a press conference to announce our wedding."

The man's velvety voice rang in the cavernous dining room. Everyone had different opinions when they heard it.

The Crawford family was stunned by Luke's overbearing words, and there was a momentary silence in the dining room.

Lanie and Rainie looked at their father with admiration and thought he was so cool. Even Great- grandpa, Grandma, and the others were afraid of him.

The two kids happily ate a few more mouthfuls of pasta at the thought of their parents getting married…

Old Master Crawford sighed. Unlike Luke’s useless father, the boy had been strong-minded and overbearing since he was a child. Even he could not influence Luke’s decisions.

Seeing that his grandson was determined to marry Bianca, Old Master Crawford began to discuss with Luke the details of his May wedding with Bianca and the date to send the invitation to the Rayne family.

After all, Luke was his eldest grandson, and everything had to be done according to the rules. They could not embarrass the Crawford family or let outsiders make fun of them.

Seeing that Old Master Crawford and Louis discussed the wedding with her son and turned a deaf ear to the opinions of his mother, Allison's chest heaved with anger, and she lost her appetite.

She claimed that she was not feeling well and went upstairs, too fed up to give Bianca a second glance.

At the dinner table, Old Master Crawford asked, "Bea, when are your grandpa and aunt free? Let's have dinner together someday and send the invitation over…"

Bianca sat on the dining chair in a trance. She still could not believe that all this was real. She thought it would be difficult for them to get married, but Old Master Crawford agreed to their marriage.

While distracted, she did not hear Old Master Crawford's question.

It was not until Luke squeezed her little hand that Bianca came to her senses. "What? Grandpa, you called me?"

Old Master Crawford, who was in a good mood because his grandson was getting married, did not notice Bianca's distracted behavior. He said, "Pick a good date this month and let our two families have a meal together.

Then we'll send the invitation, and you and Luke will have your wedding on May 1st. Bea, when do you think your grandfather and aunt will be free?"

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 456-Already A Wife-Doting Maniac

Bianca was embarrassed to see Old Master Crawford, Luke, and Louis staring at her.

She apologized to the old man. "Sorry, Old Master Crawford, I was thinking about something. I'll go home over the weekend to ask my grandpa and aunt what they think and see when they're free. I'll let you know then, okay?"

Old Master Crawford laughed loudly, "Okay, I'll have dinner with my in-laws and go through the calendar for the best date for the engagement and send the invitation. We still have to go through the formalities.’’

The old man was superstitious about picking the perfect date. Luke naturally understood.

His grandfather was supportive of his and Bianca's marriage, so he was naturally happy. "We'll do whatever you say, Grandfather. Bianca and I will get engaged as soon as possible and start on the preparations. Bea's two months pregnant. We can wait, but your great-grandchild can't wait."

Old Master Crawford raised his walking stick and tapped his favorite grandson. "Jerk. You know they can't wait, yet you still knocked her up before getting married. Take good care of Bea. I think she's lost weight. She hasn't been nourishing her body properly, has she?"

Bianca was a little embarrassed. She had rounded out a lot since she was pregnant.

With a sweet tooth and extra meals every day, she gained nearly thirteen pounds in just two months of pregnancy.

Fortunately, she had always been thin so it was not that obvious.

Bianca was a little worried. Would she become a plump penguin in her third trimester if she did not control her appetite?

Hearing that Luke was accused by his grandfather, Bianca said shyly, ’ Grandpa, Luke takes good care of me. I eat a lot every day, which is enough to nourish the baby in my belly. Pregnant women cant eat too much, or they'll give the baby too much nourishment, which may lead to labor complications."

Old Master Crawford's eyes widened. "Really? My other old friends kept asking the caretakers to make all kinds of nutritious stews when their granddaughters-in-law were pregnant so that their babies would be smart and healthy. Oh, I just started my business when your grandmother got pregnant. We weren’t rich, and she suffered a lot with me, but I still managed to save money to buy her various supplements. Later, as expected, she gave me a chubby son."

A deep nostalgia appeared on Old Master Crawford's imposing face at the mention of his wife.

However, at the thought of his useless only son Zachary, who had unfortunately died young, he sighed and said, "It's a pity that Zach had a brilliant brain but didn't use it in the right way and got into a lot of affairs. Fortunately, that ingrate gave me a wonderful grandson like you, Luke… Oh, it's all a long time ago. Why did this old geezer bring it up? Luke, you have to protect and dote on a woman when she's pregnant. You can't let Bea suffer."

Luke stared at Bianca with his long, narrow black eyes and smiled silently.

He grabbed Bianca's hand tightly. "Grandfather, Bianca is my everything. I can’t love her enough, much less let her suffer. Don't worry. I'll take good care of her and our children."

The man's warm gaze fell on Bianca's gentle and beautiful petite face and on the twins, who were eagerly propping their cheeks and listening to their conversation.

He felt that his years of waiting and keeping watch had been worth it.

When the naughty and mischievous Louis saw his eldest brother looking at his sister-in-law with great affection, he could not help joking, "Tsk, tsk, tsk. Grandpa, look. Luke's already a wife-doting maniac before marrying Bianca. Will he become a hen-pecked husband after getting married?"

When Old Master Crawford heard what Louis said and saw the cheeky grin on his second grandson, he suddenly raised his walking stick high and hit him on the instep. "Your brother's second child is two months along, and you're still single. You can't even find a wife. Aren't you embarrassing the Crawford family?" "Oh, Grandpa. I'm only in my twenties. Can't you show me mercy? Can you stop lecturing me in front of everyone every time? How embarrassing…"

Louis yelled as his grandfather's ''execution staff" hit him. He jumped up from his seat like a monkey and fled far away.

'Jeez. The old man may be old, but he shows no mercy in hitting people with his walking stick.' "Mommy, are you really marrying Daddy?" Rainie pulled Bianca by the hem of her shirt and asked again in disbelief.

Bianca gently wiped the corner of her daughter's lips with a tissue. "Yes, I'm marrying Daddy. When the time comes, why don't you and your brother be our flower girl and ring bearer?" "Of course!"

Rainie nestled in Bianca's arms like a little squirrel.

She gave her brother a gesture of victory, and her cutesy voice was full of expectation. "Big Bro, we're gonna be the flower girl and ring bearer for Mommy and Daddy. I'm so happy."

Lanie snuggled up beside Bianca. The little guy did not say anything, but the grin on his handsome little face, showing a row of white teeth, revealed his happy mood.

'Mommy is marrying Daddy. Nothing makes me happier than this!'

Their marriage had gotten Old Master Crawford's approval, and Bianca was in a good mood.

The family of four returned to their private mansion. Bianca put her handbag down as she tidied the room.

When she went to work the next day, Bianca had to carry a larger document in her bag, so she changed to a larger handbag.

Looking at her watch, it was a little late, so she hurried to the company, even forgetting the CD she had put in her handbag earlier.

Time flew by leisurely. Bianca's work this week went well because she was in a good mood, and her relationship with Luke was getting sweeter and sweeter.

It was Saturday in the blink of an eye.

Bianca and Luke went to Old Master Rayne's house with their two children.

Because they had something to talk about, Bianca called Wanda in advance. When the family of four got to Old Master Rayne's house, her aunt was already there.

"We're here to see you, Great-Grandpa and Great Aunt Wanda…" As soon as the two children arrived, Rainie threw herself into Old Master Rayne's arms while Lanie kissed Wanda shyly.

Holding his great-grandchildren whom he had not seen in days, Old Master Rayne was overjoyed. "I miss you so much, dear children. I miss you every novelbin

day…"

Holding Bianca's hand, Old master Rayne told Wanda, "Wanda, hurry and get some food that Bea and Luke love. Bea loves fried chicken and grilled salmon. Buy more chicken and salmon. What does Luke

love? Bea, tell your aunt later so she can go buy them."

The tall and handsome Luke stood elegantly in the living room. His modellike long legs made his presence imposing.

He said gently to Old Master Rayne, "Grandpa, Aunt Wanda, don't bother.

Bianca and I are here to discuss our marriage with you. We're getting married on the 1st of May."

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 457-Luke's Forceful Oath! Leaving The Marriage With Nothing

"May 1st? So soon?” Old Master Rayne and Wanda said in unison.

Even though he knew that Bianca was going to marry someday, Old Master Rayne was nonetheless overcome with emotion.

His favorite granddaughter, who used to live with him and depended on him, was about to get married. He was so reluctant.

The old man raised his trembling old hand and wiped the tears that had somehow appeared in the corner of his eyes. Bea, I know you're going to get married sooner or later, and I've been looking forward to this day for a long time. But I'm reluctant when you do get married!’

Old Master Rayne's old eyes and those uncontrollable tears made Bianca's heart as heavy as a rock. The tip of her nose twinged, and she felt a lump in her throat.

However, over the years, she had learned to control her emotions, so she did not cry in front of her grandfather.

Bianca pulled out a tissue to wipe Old Master Rayne's tears and comforted him. "Grandpa, it doesn't matter whether I'm married. We're in the same city and not far from each other. I'll come to visit you whenever I'm free. Don't be sad."

Bianca had seen her grandfather suffer so much since she was little that she vowed to be filial to him.

Wanda was holding Lanie as she tried to comfort her father. "Dad, Bea's old enough to get married. Even if she doesn't get married now, she'll be married in a few years anyway. Besides, there are not many good men like Luke, so we should be happy that Bea is marrying him."

Old Master Rayne sighed and solemnly handed Bianca’s hand over to Luke.

Looking at the two children's intimately held hands, Old Master Rayne said earnestly. "Boy, my granddaughter is a sensible girl. It's just that she's too sensitive sometimes, so you have to bear with her. You're going to be a family. Be considerate to each other no matter what you encounter. And Bea, Luke's busy with work, so social interactions for business are unavoidable. You'll have to learn to understand. Luke, I'll hand my granddaughter over to you now. I sincerely wish you a long life together."

Luke went to help Old Master Rayne sit down on the couch.

Facing the old man, the man's forceful oath escaped his lips. "Grandpa, I promise to love Bianca with my life and to keep her safe forever. You can rest assured of that. After we marry, I'll transfer all my personal property to Bianca. If one day I've done her wrong, I'll leave the marriage with nothing to my name. What do you think?" 1

Wanda was stunned.

She never expected the young man to say such a thing.

Luke was in charge of the entire T Corporation, so he naturally had a lot of money. Even the properties in his name were an unimaginable amount of wealth to the common people.

If he did transfer them to her niece, would Bianca not become the richest woman in A City?

She carefully sized up the man again.

Luke's sincere eyes were not mixed with the slightest falsehood, and in the depths of his eyes was deep affection for Bianca.

Wanda felt that her niece was lucky for finding the right lover. Unlike herself, who got cheated by a man, lost her heart, and ended up…

She felt dejected. She stopped thinking about the unpleasant past and continued to play with the clever Lanie and Rainie.

When Old Master Rayne heard that Luke was going to transfer property to his granddaughter after they married, he was amused. "What nonsense are you talking about? My granddaughter isn't a materialistic woman. She's just a silly girl that's lucky to marry you. Tell me if she bullies you, I'll help you teach her a lesson."

Bianca looked at her grandfather resentfully.

'Am I not your granddaughter? Grandpa has already started favoring his grandson-in-law ever before we are married. That's a little unfair!'

Luke reached out to grab Bianca's fingers and wrapped them in his palm.

Bianca could feel the heat of the man's palm.

At the film studio.

Leia was wearing a gorgeous period costume on set, and her hair was tied up in a bun.

The period drama "Game of Beauty" was adapted from a popular online novel. It told the tragic love- hate story of a general and a female minister during World War 2.

They were shooting the sixteenth scene of the period drama today, in which the general and female minister separated due to a misunderstanding. The female lead was taken to the palace by the royal mistress, who admired the male lead, and was slapped for revenge. The general came in time to save her life. Their feelings for each other elevated, and they started their love affair.

"Action! Silence throughout the set. All unnecessary crew in front of the camera, get out of here!" The director ordered everyone on the set with a loudspeaker.

The set was soon restored to filming order.

Shooting began.

The royal mistress sent someone to take the female minister to the palace and commanded her lady- in-waiting and maid to slap her hard.

Of course, the person getting slapped was a double for Leia.

Leia was accompanied by two assistants. One holding an umbrella for her, while another peeled an apple.

Leia enjoyed her assistants' services as she watched the double act for her.

Fortunately, the double's acting was not bad, so the slapping scene was quickly wrapped up.

In the following scene, the male lead was heartbroken that the female lead was hurt. He took her back to his manor to take care of her and kissed her forcibly.

There were a lot more close-ups in the scene, and Leia had to act herself.

Leia's costar had recently enjoyed a boost of fame. His acting was commendable in the entertainment industry rampant with young actors.

The actor's looks and acting were on point. However, in Leia's eyes, he could not compare to a hair on Luke's head. She was indifferent to him and half-heartedly went through her scenes with him.

The Leia on the director's camera would only widen her eyes naively. The two people awkwardly acted together…

The director cursed in his heart. He was so angry that he wanted to smash the camera!

The producers had originally decided on another starlet who had the looks and acting skills. However, on the eve of the shoot, the starlet was kicked out and replaced by Leia. Who would believe that nothing was going on behind the scenes?

The scene took more than an hour to shoot. It was retaken countless times before it was finally over.

Leia returned to her trailer to change out of her costume.

She walked out with her agent after changing her clothes.

Leia was in a good mood. Charmaine said she had done what she had told her to do and said Bianca was shocked after receiving the CD.

She believed that Bianca would leave A City and Luke soon.

After the woman left, she believed that with her charm and her parents' help, Luke would eventually fall at her feet.

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 458-Luke and Bianca Give Mr. and Mrs. Norman the Wedding Invitation!

Leia's confidence was unfounded.

She had been preparing herself for her eventual entry into the Crawford family. She learned upper- class etiquette from Queenie and also how to play the piano, create flower arrangements, and cook simple dishes, i

She even started to learn about investing and business management from her mother.

With her talents and her abilities, she was sure to be Luke's wife…

Leia's agent walked behind her and told her, "There will be a dinner with the production crew tonight, Leia. I think you should join it. That'll strengthen your relationship with the director and producer. That way, you'll receive more roles in the future."

Leia declined without thinking. "I've been busy recently, and I don't have time for any gatherings. Maybe next time."

No matter what the agent said, Leia was not in the mood to listen. All the agent could do was to shake her head and lament Leia's stubbornness.

When they passed by another trailer, they could hear several female actresses talking inside.

Leia did not pay attention to it at first, but she stopped walking when she heard the actresses in the trailer mention her name!

One of the actresses said, "Hey, Tammy, you look quite similar to Leia, the female lead actress. Unfortunately, your fates are different. She's the female lead, but you're only a nameless double. Why are our lives so miserable?"

The young woman named Tammy replied contemptuously. "That's only because of her father! If her father isn't a bigshot, do you think she stands a chance in the entertainment industry? All of you saw her performance today, right? Her face looked as though it was paralyzed, and I nearly killed myself from holding back the laughter. Hahaha, so what if she graduated from film school? She's worse than her double…"

Another voice concurred. "That's right. Too bad that she has a bigshot for a father, and we're only from normal families."

Tammy grunted. "So what if she comes from a wealthy family? Leia is only a third-rate actress, and I don't think she can be any better. If I were as wealthy as her, I'd be famous all over by now! By the way, do you know that Leia has small and flat breasts? I accidentally saw it once while she was changing. I think it's a size 34A!"

Then, the women in the trailer giggled. Leia suddenly kicked the door open, which gave the actresses inside a huge shock.

The two actresses were deeply embarrassed when they saw Leia walk in.

The actress named Tammy was sitting cross-legged on the makeup table, flaunting her figure to the other actresses.

"Ms. Norman…" She stammered when she saw Leia.

Leia looked at Tammy disdainfully. Her voice was as cold as ice as she spoke to her agent. "Seems like I can't afford to pay Tammy Olson! Give her her last paycheck and tell her to get lost!"

How daring of Tammy Olson! novelbin

Leia was in a horrid mood. She did not bother to maintain her kind and gentle guise.

Tammy was flustered when she heard that she was about to be fired. "I… I didn't mean that, Ms. Norman," she begged, "I swear that I won't do that again. Please…"

Leia glanced condescendingly at Tammy as though she were a piece of trash. "How dare you talk bad about me when you're on my payroll? I'm very busy, and I don't have time to waste on you. Escort her out of the studio now!" "Yes." Leia's agent nodded.

Leia shot a glance at the other two actresses and remembered their faces.

She would deal with them another time.

Without saying another word, Leia left the shabby trailer.

Leia's agent stepped forward and said coldly, "You can leave no, Tammy Olson. You won't be Ms. Norman's double anymore."

Tammy gritted her teeth as she saw Leia walk away. Her eyes were filled with hatred!

After the Crawford and Rayne families discussed it, the details for Luke and Bianca's wedding were confirmed.

The engagement ceremony shall be on the 18th.

Luke gave out invitations to his acquaintances in the political and business circles, including Mr. and Mrs. Jack Norman.

When Leia arrived home, she noticed her mother sitting on the couch with a bright red invitation card in her hand.

She changed into her slippers, put her handbag away, and hugged her mother's neck. "Who's getting married soon, Mom?"

Queenie said gently, "It's from the Crawford family. Luke and Bianca will be engaged on the 18th. Our family is invited."

Leia opened the invitation card in disbelief. When she saw Luke and Bianca’s names written on the card, she felt as though an atom bomb had gone off in her brain, and her body started to shake uncontrollably!

'Impossible.

'Charmaine told me that she handed the CD to Bianca.

'If the woman loves Luke, she should have left him.

'Why didn't she leave, but instead, they're going to be engaged?'

Leia made an excuse that she was unwell and returned to her room. After locking the door, she gave Charmain a phone call…

On the other side, a stark contrast from Leia's exasperation, Bianca was immersed in the sweet mood of love.

She would be engaged to Luke the day after tomorrow. Bianca had been waiting forthat day.

Luke had been working overtime in the company so that he could be free on that day. Bianca was worried that he was losing weight and so made all sorts of health tonics for him.

Tonight, she was in the kitchen making a tonic, just like before.

The two children were playing barefoot in the living room.

Bianca looked at the charming interaction between the twins and gently touched her stomach. A smile appeared as she imagined Luke's loving and handsome face.

Perhaps that was the ideal life she wanted: A loving husband, cheerful children, and the fragrance of home cooking.

Suddenly, Bianca's phone rang. She thought that it was from Luke. She wiped her hands, picked up the phone, but saw that it was from an unknown number.

Bianca was used to receiving calls from unknown numbers. She had many design clients, and some of them would call her to talk about work.

Right after Bianca answered the call, she heard an exasperated female voice speaking shrilly. "Bianca Rayne, did you see the contents of the CD? I've already extended an olive branch to you, telling you to leave Luke instantly, yet you are going to be engaged with him? Don't you care for his safety? I'll give you another two days. You have to leave him before the engagement! Otherwise, Luke will be ruined!"

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 459-If You Can’t Let Me Go, Then You Should Stay With Me For the Rest of Your Life

After leaving that harsh message, that person ended the call without waiting for Bianca to respond. novelbin

Bianca thought that it was a prank call. She wanted to go back to the kitchen when she suddenly remembered that a few days ago, she had met a stranger in the dessert cafe.

That woman handed her a CD, telling her that its contents were disadvantageous for Luke. The woman also threatened her to leave Luke if she wanted him to be safe.

After she got home, she completely forgot about the matter.

As the saying went, pregnant women were easily forgetful.

The woman had reminded her about the existence of the CD.

She wondered why that woman was so sure that the contents of the CD would be enough to threaten her.

Bianca lowered the heat on the stove to simmer the tonic in the pot.

She found the CD in her handbag, then took it out and played it.

The video played on the screen.

Bianca's gentle face stiffened when she saw the contents of the CD. Her body trembled as though she fell into an ice cave.

Late at night.

The two children had already gone to bed. Bianca, dressed in snow-white silk pajamas, stood in front of the window and looked at the moon. She was feeling melancholic.

When Luke entered the room, he saw Bianca's delicate back.

The moonlight from outside the window was like a golden veil on her body, and her loneliness evoked pity.

Luke took off his coat, silently walked forward, and hugged her from behind.

His sculpted chin rested gently on her shoulder. 'Silly girl, it's so cold. Why aren't you waiting for me in bed?”

Bianca buried her head into his chest.

She hugged his strong waist tightly, as though she was afraid of losing him. "Our engagement ceremony is the day after tomorrow, Luke. I'm afraid that it won't happen…"

Luke's healthy arms hugged Bianca's delicate waist so that her soft body clung to his broad chest. "Why are you worried so? Our families have agreed to the marriage, and no one can stop us. All you have to do is be a good bride. You can leave everything else to me. Mm?"

With his healthy and muscular body, he hugged the frail Bianca into his embrace.

The speckled moonlight fell on Bianca's face like droplets of water, enveloping her in a halo.

Luke was slightly worried when he saw Bianca's sudden change.

His shrewd gaze transfixed on her body, and he lightly furrowed his brows." Are you regretting your decision? Do you want to call the engagement off?"

Bianca shook her head.

She held her tears back, took his hand, and gently sucked on his slender fingers.

"No one wants me to marry you more than I do. I've waited for the day for so long. Don't you know that you're a gift from God? I don't think there's anything more blissful than to be able to marry you, be your wife, raise children for you, and cook dinner for you. I want to marry you, and I wish that we can grow old together and never drift apart…"

Bianca lowered her head. Her smooth black hair fell on her chest.

Her long eyelashes were trembling like small fans. Her innocent and charming face aroused Luke's primal urges.

He had not made out with Bianca ever since she was pregnant.

Luke carried Bianca back to the bedroom and pinned her on the bed, carefully avoiding any pressure on her stomach.

Bianca looked at Luke in shock. "You're playing with fire, my darling. Don't you know… that you'll hurt yourself?" Luke's low and hoarse voice was smooth like fine liquor.

Bianca stiffened when she saw the fires of passion in the man's eyes.

She placed her arms carefully between the two bodies and said tremblingly, "It's not… three months yet… we cant…"

Her voice was soft and weak, and she sounded shy, timid, and aggrieved, like a kitten soaked in the rain.

The man's charming voice spoke indulgently into her ear. "I know that your body condition isn't suitable for vigorous exercise now, silly. No matter how tough it gets, I won't touch you a hair. I love you. You know that."

Bianca's eyelids drooped. Dewdrops of tears lingered on her long and black eyelashes.

She hugged her and mumbled, "You're so nice to me. I can't… I can't possibly…"

She did not know if she was speaking to herself or to him.

Luke thought that Bianca's hormones must be acting up again.

The woman had become more melancholic after she was pregnant, and he was not too worried about her sudden change in mood.

He gently pried open her jaw with his tongue and danced in her oral cavity.

Luke's embrace was so warm, and his body emanated the scent of the sun. As the two shared a moment of intimacy, Bianca could only hear his charming voice next to her ear.

"If you can't possibly let me go, then you should stay with me for the rest of your life. You are my one and only, and you are my salvation. I love you so much, and I want to be together with you forever…"

Bianca was obsessed with his warmth. She clung to him tightly as though she was drowning in the sea and found a piece of driftwood.

Without him, she had nothing. Only he could give her safety and security.

Luke said that he loved her, but she loved him even more.

However, Bianca knew that they would not share a future together…

They might be blissful right now, but they could be separated in the next moment.

Bianca forced herself not to think about it. She would savor her short time spent together with Luke, even if it was down to the very last second.

The next day.

Luke brought Bianca to the grandest high-end bridal boutique in A City. His assistant had already informed the manager of the boutique that they were going there.

The general manager of the boutique and the employees were standing in front of the entrance, waiting for the arrival of the rising star in A City's business world.

"Mr. Crawford is here!"

Right after the manager finished his sentence, Luke's Lamborghini parked in front of the entrance to the boutique.

Then, he escorted a beautiful woman with fair skin from the passenger seat

Twins in Her Womb: Sir President Please be Gentle Chapter 460-Ms. Rayne? What's Wrong, Ms. Rayne?

Luke had always been an elegant gentleman. Once he stepped out of the car, the female employees of the bridal boutique were looking at him with heart symbols in their eyes.

"Oh my, Mr. Crawford is so handsome! He's much more good-looking than any movie star on TV…" "That elite that I only see in financial magazines is so imposing! I'm going to faint, boo hoo hoo…" "That woman is so lucky to marry him. I wish I were her…"

The female employees standing in a row were whispering to each other. Their eyes sparkled as they looked at the incredibly handsome Luke.

The subject of their discussion stood straight like a soldier. He walked at a steady pace through the entrance of the bridal boutique while protecting Bianca.

"Mr. Crawford, Ms. Rayne."

The manager of the boutique welcomed them into the store and introduced the latest designs. "We have received a batch of wedding dresses handmade by the best designers in the world, and there are all types of styles, whether you want something exquisite, simple, conservative, or bold. I'm sure that we can satisfy all of Ms. Rayne's needs. What is your favorite style, Ms. Rayne?"

Bianca was being hugged by Luke. She seemed melancholic. "Anything will do."

The manager looked at Bianca with surprise.

The young woman looked to be in her early twenties, and she looked pure and modest.

The manager's discerning eye could see that she was not wearing any makeup on her face. Even so, her tender skin and curvaceous figure inspired envy.

The young woman did not speak much, but her refreshing demeanor was very eye-catching.

However, the manager expected that any bride-to-be should be ecstatic, not to mention that her husband-to-be was the famous Luke Crawford.

When news of his imminent wedding got out, many female socialites were heartbroken. She should be happy that such an outstanding man loved her.

Why did he not feel any joy from her?

He was doubtful, but he did not say anything.

All he was concerned with was doing his job well. He continued introducing the wedding dresses to Bianca. "This is the hallmark design of our store, Ms. Rayne. It combines both traditional and modern elements, and I think it should suit you very well. How about giving it a try?"

Bianca's clear gaze looked at Luke.

The man lowered his head, gently pressed his lips together, and planted a kiss on her cherry lips. "Go ahead. I'd like to see you in a wedding dress." "Mm." Bianca replied, then followed the sales clerks into the fitting room.

Luke sat on an exquisite couch, waiting patiently as he casually flipped through a men's magazine and sipped coffee.

In the fitting room, the sales clerks were surprised by how good Bianca looked in the wedding dress, but Bianca did not see their faces.

She felt a complicated mix of emotions: bliss, affection, grief, and agony.

She found it hard to breathe.

One of the sales clerks whose hair was tied in a bun helped Bianca pull the side zipper up while exclaiming, "You're so beautiful in this dress, Ms.

Rayne. The cutting fits you perfectly. A socialite came to try the dress two days ago, but she doesn't look a tenth as good as you!"

Bianca's eyes were misted with tears as her heart was assaulted by waves of sorrow. She was beautiful in the dress, but she could not wear the dress and marry the man she loved.

"Ms. Rayne? What's wrong, Ms. Rayne?"

The other short-haired sales clerk noticed that Bianca’s mood was abnormal. "Are you not feeling well? I can bring you to the lounge to have a short rest," she said. 1

Bianca shook her head and said nothing.

She harbored a major secret in her heart that concerned Luke's safety. It was like a poisonous arrow aimed at Luke's heart that could fatally wound him at any time. 1

Bianca buried the secret deep in her heart. She did not want anyone to know so no one could take advantage of him.

However, she was too weak to do anything about it.

She remembered the woman's threat. When she thought of being forced to separate from Luke, she felt like someone was tearing her heart into two.

The sales clerk with a bun spoke carefully when she saw that Bianca was frowning. "Are you feeling nervous about the wedding? It'll be fine. Every woman would feel nervous right before their marriage because they would lose some of their freedoms. However, if you really like the other party, it won't be an obstacle.

"Furthermore, Mr. Crawford is the Prince Charming of many single women in A City. He is so outstanding, yet he only loves you. You're so lucky to be able to marry him!" "Yes, I feel so lucky to be able to know him," Bianca said stiffly, "I must have used up a lot of luck to marry him, and I guess my luck ends here…" novelbin

Her voice became softer and softer. The two sales clerks could only see her lips slightly opening and closing.

They did not know what Bianca was talking about. Instead, they looked at each other and thought that Mr. Crawford's fiancee was acting rather weirdly.

Any other woman would have been overjoyed to be able to marry Mr. Crawford.

Bianca came out of the fitting room, dressed in a pure white wedding dress and wearing light makeup. Her shoulders were bare, and that had accentuated her charming face and snow-white skin.

She stood there, like a work of art.

Everyone in the boutique held their breaths the moment they saw Bianca.

A hint of surprise flashed past Luke's sculpted face.

His eyes, brimming with love, were transfixed on Bianca.

That was the woman who would be his bride.

Luke saw from the corner of his eye that the male employees of the boutique were staring at Bianca obsessively. He felt jealous.

He wanted to keep Bianca in his pocket so no other men could see her.

That was what he did.

Luke walked up to Bianca, draped his coat over Bianca's bare shoulders, and hugged her possessively in his embrace. He kissed the corner of her eye as usual, but he tasted salty and bitter tears…
