Chapter 147 Unexpectedly, Luke Tightened His Grip On Her Wrist!
Luke's brows furrowed slightly, his dignified expression still a little upset. She knew why he was feeling
upset.
'Can you show some respect?" Bianca pulled out her hand to avoid any more unnecessary touching.
Out of her expectation, the man gripped her wrist even tighter the very next moment.
Luke's deep and piercingly cold gaze was chilling as he looked at her flickering eyes. "How do I show
my respect to you? Should I address you as my cousin-in-law?"
His tone was sarcastic and cold.
Bianca was once again annoyed by his words. "If that’s what you want to call me, I don't mind.'
Just when the man was on the verge of breaking her wrist, Grandpa said," Bea, have you packed the
kid’s school bag?"
Bianca could not say anything from the pain she was feeling. Her wrist would have broken if he had not
loosened his grip.
Luke's cannibalistic appearance was reflected in her misty eyes. She lowered her head, gritted her
teeth silently, and broke away from his grip...
"Say goodbye to Grandpa." There was no expression on Luke's face when he told his son as he
reached the door.
The little guy took his daddy's hand, turned his head, and waved his other hand toward the hospital
bed. "Goodbye, Great-grandpa. Have a good rest. I
... I'll come and see you tomorrow..." ’Okay, I'll see you tomorrow," the old man said.
The little guy was taken out of the ward by his dad.
Before the ward's door closed, he looked back at Aunt Bea who had not come out. He walked along
the corridor and looked up. "Daddy, I think Aunt Bea is secretly crying."
Luke did not look at his son. "You're mistaken."
The little guy insisted, saying, "I'm not mistaken..."
The man frowned.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBianca thought that Grandpa would ask why she suddenly minded the difference between their family
background and why they suddenly broke up when everything was going fine.
However, Grandpa did not ask her.
Grandpa lay on the hospital bed. He did not sigh nor frown. He did not want to put pressure on his
granddaughter.
Brayden texted her.
After reading his text, she went over and tucked the blanket for Grandpa again. She tucked the corner
of the blankets before going out, gently closing the ward door...
Brayden was at the entrance of the hospital.
When he saw Bianca, he asked with care, "Is your family member in the hospital?' 'Yeah. My grandpa."
Bianca did not intend to hide it.
'Shall we have something to drink?" Brayden pointed to a coffee bar outside the hospital and said.
She nodded. She wanted to sit down and talk anyway.
They arrived at the coffee bar.
Brayden ordered two cups of coffee. Since they had eaten together before, he knew what she liked.
The coffee did not arrive even after a long time.
Brayden asked, "Why's your Grandpa in the hospital?" 'Just the typical thing old people get. He’ll be
discharged in a few days." Bianca could not say that her grandfather was kidnapped and injured. It
might scare Brayden.
Brayden nodded and fell silent. He carefully studied the words she said, especially the words 'the
typical thing old people get'...
After a while, he looked up. "Are you taking care of him by yourself in the hospital? Where are your
parents?"
At that moment, the coffee came.
The waiter put down the coffee and left.
"My dad,1 Bianca squeezed the coffee cup with her fingers as if she was numb from the heat. "My
dad's also in the hospital. My mom left my dad and me after I was born."
Brayden did not drink from the cup of coffee that he had brought toward his lips.
After learning about Kevin's condition, Brayden was silent.
After the silence, he frowned again.
Finally, Brayden got up and left. Bianca waited until almost all the customers in the coffee bar were
gone before finding the strength to go out.
She thought that breaking up was a good decision. Perhaps they should not even have dated in the
first place.
Early in the next morning.
Bianca had finished packing breakfast for Grandpa and went to work.
When she was on the subway, her phone rang.
It was from an unknown number.
'Hello? Is this Bianca?"
It was a woman's voice.
'Hello, this is Bianca speaking." The subway station at the hospital never had any seats. She stood and
held the handrail tightly with her left hand.
'I'm Brayden's mother. I have some things to talk to you about."
Bianca was shocked. "Sure, Mrs. Collins...’ 'Brayden came back last night and drank a lot of alcohol.
Brayden never did things like this before. His dad and I asked him why he drank. Perhaps it was the
alcohol helping him to tell the truth, but he didn't hide it from us and told us about the two of you."
Mrs. Collins was not a person of power, but she just had to say something when Bianca's family's
conditions were unacceptable. As Brayden’s mother, she did not know what Brayden thought, but since
he was a child, he was always kind, pure, and did not see the bad side of people.
"Brayden's father and I think that the two of you... Should just break up!
'Hello? Ms. Rayne? Are you listening?" Brayden's mother asked anxiously.
Some parts of the subway line had very bad signals. She knew what Brayden's mother said and was
about to respond when it seemed that his mother could not hear what she said.
When the line was better, she could hear a change in Brayden's mother's tone of voice. She said
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsharply, "What’s the meaning of you not talking? Are you not taking my words seriously? Ms. Rayne, I
advise you to think things through clearly. Don't take advantage of Brayden. Even if Brayden makes a
lot of money and his savings are a lot, he can't give them to your dying father or splurge it on your
sickly grandfather. Don't bring your problems to a good person, you leech!"
After she finished saying that, Brayden's mother hung up the phone.
Bianca heard the tone that signified the call had ended.
At that moment, her train arrived at her office's station.
It was the downtown area and most people were getting off at the stop. Before Bianca had time to
digest what Brayden's mother said, she squeezed so hard out of the door that a button got pulled out
from her shirt.
When she finally got out of the subway station, all her notifications came flooding in.
Her female classmate from the last reunion sent her a message, 'Bea, are you looking for a part-time
job? I know of an available part-time job. Would you like to do it with me? At least we can keep each
other company!
'The basic salary is 300 bucks per night. The more you sell, the more commission you'll get. However,
the catch is that the things are a little hard to sell...
'[Picture] It's this thing. Take a look and see if you can accept it and promote it in an entertainment club.
However, you can rest assured that the club is run by my friend’s uncle and is a proper place. There
won't be any weird guys around. If you've seen my message, give me a reply. Bye-'
After Bianca read the messages, she replied, 'Sorry, I was in the subway just now. I just managed to
squeeze myself out.’ 'So do you want to do this part-time job with me?’ the female classmate said.
Bianca hesitated when she looked at the word Durax that was an imitation of Durex in the picture.
However, she needed money, and selling anything was the same to her. Selling condoms would allow
adults to have sex responsibly and it was a form of respect for women's bodies as well.
'Send me the time and place,’ Bianca replied.
After replying to the text, she looked up at the traffic light on the crosswalk which had turned from red to
green.
When she was just about to cross the road, she turned her eyes inadvertently and froze in place... 1
Someone walked out from the subway station ten meters away from her! It was none other than Faye
Thomas who had arranged for her to give birth to her employer five years ago!
