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-If 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. 2
