After a long time, until her legs were numb from crouching on the floor for so long, she finally heard Luke's voice coming from the washroom. There was a post- release hoarseness in his voice. 1

He said, "You can come in now."

Bianca bit her lip and swallowed her awkwardness, standing up to open the washroom door again.

Luke looked at her, his expression complicated.

Bianca met his gaze for a short second, but she could not stand his deep, dark eyes, so she had to turn and look away.

Right here and now, Luke definitely looked impeccably dressed. He was his usual perfectly gentlemanly self; even his collar and sleeves were ridiculously neat.

It was almost as though he had not been involved in any of the hanky-panky earlier, as though all of it was just her one-sided imagination.

Bianca was about to go in, but then he blocked her way.

The man's tall and slender body was still emanating the smell of testosterone and masculine pheromones. It made her panic.

"Please let me pass," Bianca said, her head lowered.

Luke's strong brow darkened, and he walked past her, brushing past her shoulder as he left.

Bianca took a deep breath and went into the washroom.

Before she closed the washroom door, she saw Luke walk up to Blanche from behind. The boy saw his father approaching, but he did not say anything. He just continued doing his homework seriously.

Both the adult and the child seemed to be lacking some serious love.

First, they overran her house as though they stayed there, eating and staying as they pleased. Now they had set up camp in her hospital room too, the younger one doing his homework while the older one... pleasured... himself...

Bianca shook her head, too afraid to imagine it.

She was on the verge of breaking down.
