Blanche opened his mouth to say something, but then he looked around to give his tall father behind him a cautious look. After that, he turned back around and shook his head at Bianca. "No, we're taking you to the department store."

"The department store? Why?"

As soon as she said that, Bianca immediately remembered that there was no more mineral water in the fridge. The kid was probably worried that she did not have any water to drink when she felt thirsty. 1

"We don't need to go to the store. I'll boil myself some water later."

What she really needed now was for the two of them to leave, ASAP.

However, the boy shook his head adamantly. "Nuh-uh, I'm worried you won't have anything to eat or drink..."

Helpless, Bianca looked at Luke, signaling at him to help her. As his parent, she hoped that he would take the boy away.

Instead, Luke patted his son's head and said to her mildly, "Lanie is so worried that he might even insist on staying here with you tonight."

Bianca,

There was nothing she could say.

To tell the truth, if her fate really had to be tied to a Crawford, she sincerely hoped she could meet Blanche Crawford every once in a while, so she could experience the warmth of having a child by her side, i

That could help her deal with some of her heartache and remorse for the child she had lost.

Even if it was only an illusion of motherhood, she still wanted to savor it now and then.

As for Luke Crawford, Bianca prayed that she would never meet him again.

Even at work, it would be best if they went their completely separate ways and never encountered each other.

She had only known that rich and powerful man for less than half a month, but she had already been targeted by Charlotte Shaw, that heiress who was born into authority and never understood the concept of committing a crime.

Bianca did not even dare to imagine what worse encounters she might have if she continued to be involved with Luke Crawford.

Wearing the off-white dress she had come in, Bianca picked up her wallet and left the hospital with the father-and-son duo.

Luke walked in front of her.

Bianca instinctively kept her distance from him. She was a sparrow and he was an imperial dragon, so they did not match at all when they stood together. She did not want to embarrass herself.

The store was right outside the hospital, less than a hundred meters away.

As such, Luke did not bother driving.

As they walked down the street, Bianca was sensitive enough to notice that she attracted the occasional gaze. After passersby looked at her, they would look at the man in front of her. He looked like he had walked out of a finance magazine. 1
