Chapter 1008 He Did Not Appreciate Being Threatened
Bianca grinned craftily when she saw the message. "How about getting him a presidential suite? That should be enough for the two of them." "Alright." Luke knew that he could not force Gordan to like Vivian, but getting them a presidential suite was a good idea. It was up to Gordan if he wanted to stay there.
Susan came in through the door and saw Luke and Bianca sitting together intimately. She frowned and said anxiously, "Luke, have you found out who hurt Thea?" "Not yet." Luke was not ashamed of displaying his love for Bianca to other people, so he stayed in the same pose.
Susan saw that the two were not anxious at all, and her tone of voice instantly became shrill. "I can't believe that you still have the leisure to cuddle with your wife, Luke! Have you spared a thought for Louis? You'll have to find the culprit as soon as you can. That's your grandfather's orders!
She thought that she could intimidate Luke by bringing out his grandfather's name. The atmosphere became tense immediately after she said that.
Luke furrowed his brows impatiently.
He did not appreciate being threatened.
He and Louis were brothers, and he wanted to find the culprit as soon as possible. He was also quite annoyed that he had no leads to the culprit yet.
Moreover, he and Bianca were married. There was nothing wrong with them cuddling.
Bianca knew that Susan did not mean it; she was probably too anxious about Thea.
Bianca wanted to stand up, but Luke hugged her waist tightly. He glared coldly at Susan at the door and said, "I will find the culprit that hurt Thea, but I don't like other people telling me what to do."
Susan was startled, then she became furious. Louis and Yuri were in the hospital taking care of their daughter, while Luke and Bianca were cuddling in the study, and their children were safe and sound. She was quite indignant when she thought of that.
Why was Thea the one injured and not Rainie?
Susan wanted to assert her authority as Luke's elder, but she lost her confidence when her eyes met with Luke's ice-cold gaze.
She could not afford to offend Luke. Luke might not help her if he got angry, and the culprit who injured Thea would get away with it.
Susan hated Luke thoroughly. She would not have asked for Luke's help if not that Louis was incapable of anything.
She grunted coldly and left the room.
Bianca looked at Luke worriedly. "It won't be good if Grandpa hears of what you said earlier."
Old Master Crawford also hoped that the case could be solved soon, not for his antiques but for Thea.
Luke gently caressed Bianca's hair, not worried that Susan would tattle on him. "Grandfather only wants results. He's not too concerned about the process."
Bianca sighed. The politics in the Crawford household was more complicated than she thought.
The enmity from the previous generation had been passed down to the next one. No wonder Lanie and Rainie were much more mature than other children of their age.
"Do you have any other work?" Bianca glanced at the time on the laptop. It was already very late.
"No." Luke let go of her.
Bianca stood up and said, "If there's nothing else, let's go to bed. T Corporation is holding its shareholders' meeting soon, isn't it? You'll be very busy." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
She was worried about Luke.
The next night, Luke and Bianca met up with Gordan and Vivian at A City International Airport.
Gordan's expression was incomparably foul. Behind him was Vivian, who was pushing their luggage on a cart.
Bianca frowned when she saw the petite woman pushing the big luggage cart.
"You deceived me!" Gordan roared at Luke when he got close.
It was only when the airplane took off that Gordan realized that Vivian was sitting next to him. She had covered her face in case Gordan recognized her.
The airplane had already taken off, so he could not get off, and no one wanted to change seats with him. Vivian stared at him for the entire ten- hour flight.
Luke smiled and did not deny it.
Bianca crossed her arms and said, "I was the one who invited Vivian." "Sis, you..." Gordan was at a loss for words. Did the two women conspire?
He should not have allowed Bianca to talk to Vivian.
"Why can't Vivian come to A City? She's not a criminal, and she shouldn't be locked up in Moscow," Bianca said. She went over and helped Vivian with the luggage cart. "Let me help you, Vivian."
Gordan frowned. "Let her do it, Sis. She's strong enough."
Vivian also nodded. "It's fine. Let me do it."
She was happy to be able to do something for Gordan. Even though she was tired, she did not complain.
Bianca furrowed her brows. She was not going to let Vivian do all the work. "I don't care if someone here isn't a gentleman, but you can't ask me to ignore you."
Gordan blushed intensely when he heard that. He was a gentleman, but only to certain women.
Bianca was Luke's beloved wife, and Gordan was not going to let her do the work. He sheepishly took the luggage cart from Vivian's hands. "Let me do it."
Vivian shook her head. "I can't let you do that!"
To her, Gordan was her precious treasure. He should not do menial work such as that.
Bianca felt sorry for Vivian because she would do all that for Gordan. She held Vivian's hand and said, "You should let men do that."
Vivian glanced at her, then at Luke. "Would Luke do that for you?" "Of course." Bianca glanced at Luke. Luke would never let her do any heavy work, even if she wanted to do it herself.
Vivian was envious of Bianca but did not say anything.
"I'll send you two to the hotel," Luke said.
"Thanks, Luke." Vivian smiled shyly. She would be grateful if Gordan showed her half the care that Luke showed her.
Gordan remained angry as he pushed the cart to the parking lot and placed the luggage in Luke’s car boot.
Luke drove them to the six-star hotel.
He had already informed the front desk in advance. When he parked the car, the manager came out and greeted them warmly. "Welcome, Mr. and Mrs. Crawford. Are they your guests who will be staying with us?" "Mm." Luke pressed a button on the remote control and opened the boot.
Gordan knew that he was going to be the one to take the luggage out of the boot. Once did so, several porters came to carry the luggage away.
"Is the suite ready?" Luke asked.
"Yes, it is prepared according to your instructions," the manager said.
"Mm." Luke turned around to look coldly at Gordan. "I've already checked you in. Let's go up."
