Chapter 977 A Crisis in Their Marriage?

Bianca wiped away the tears on her face and shook her head. "It's nothing, Aunt Wanda."

Wanda remained suspicious. Why would Bianca suddenly cry if nothing was happening? She handed her a napkin. "Don't use your hands. They might be dirty. Also, what's going on?"

Luke took the napkin and wiped Bianca's tears. "It's my fault, Aunt Wanda. I made her cry."

Bianca shook her head to indicate that it was not the case.

Wanda felt quite worried as she looked at the married couple who did not say anything.

"It's nothing major, Aunt Wanda, and it's also not Luke's fault. Don't worry," Bianca sniffed and said.

She had not cried for a long time, and she could not hold her tears back.

For a while, she thought that their marriage was facing a crisis. Her weak heart could not take it.

Wanda felt a little more at ease after hearing the reassurance from Bianca. "I'll get an ice pack for you. I wouldn't want the two elders to think that something happened between the two of you."

"Thank you, Aunt Wanda." Bianca smiled. After Wanda left, she held Luke's hand again and promised him, "I didn't think through it before acting earlier. I won't do that again."

Luke lifted his hand and gently caressed her cheek.

Wanda came back and handed an ice pack to Luke. "Help her massage her eyes, Luke. They're red like a rabbit's eyes. Come back in when she's feeling better. The sun is setting soon. The lightbulb blew out, and I haven't found someone to fix it yet."

"Mm." Luke took the ice pack and used it to gently massage Bianca's eyes.

Bianca reflexively wanted to move away when she felt the sudden coldness on her face, but Luke's warm fingers held her head. Those were two extreme sensations.

Luke massaged her for a while before letting her go.

Bianca's puffy eyes were feeling better. "Don't cry anymore," he said.
