Chapter 776 Bianca Fell Sick

Bianca’s heart was beating wildly. She had the urge to run out of the door.

Her anxiety reached a maximum as she saw the office door that opened suddenly.

Many scenes from horror movies flashed past her mind. A lot of ghost stories happened in offices around midnight. Was she going to encounter one in real life?

Bianca began to regret not leaving the office sooner. Why must she stay in the office alone to work overtime?

The footsteps got closer and closer, and she trembled more and more violently...

A handsome and graceful figure appeared in front of her.

The man was dressed in a light-colored suit that made him look like a model. The sculpted features and profound gaze made him look like a marquis in an oil painting. That person was none other than Luke Crawford.

Bianca heaved a sigh of relief. She opened her eyes wide in surprise. "Why did you come here?"

She knew that Luke was a workaholic. Most of the time, he would get off work later than her. Why did he have the time to visit her in her company?

The man walked in front of Bianca and briefly surveyed the office.

Then, his gaze fell on that charming and petite face. "The furnishings are not bad, and the environment is quite beautiful. Why are you still at work, and why didn't you answer my calls?"

Bianca took her phone from her desk. There were more than ten missed calls.

seemed like she was still recovering from the shock, but she also looked like she was feeling unwell.

Luke was slightly alarmed. "Are you feeling unwell? Do you have a fever?"

His palm touched Bianca's forehead to check her body temperature.

"No, no, I feel fine." Bianca shook her head to allay Luke's worries, but unexpectedly, she felt a little dizzy.

Luke furrowed his brows. "You should take it easy. Rest if you feel unwell.

You're not a superhero, so why do you work so hard?"

Bianca felt her stomach churning and her head spinning, but she gritted her teeth and said, "rm fine, really. I want to finish my tasks for today as soon as possible so that I can get off work."

Luke's expression sank. "Even so, you should take care of your health. Do you have a body thermometer? Let me check your temperature." "I'm really fine, Luke," Bianca insisted, "You don't have to fret over me."

"Stop working and go home with me now. You'll wreck yourself if you don't take it easy." "I've promised the client that I'll hand him the final proposal tomorrow, so I’ll have to finish it today. This is my promise to the client, and it concerns the reputation of my company.”

Bianca sounded quite agitated. Her face was slightly blushing because of her emotions.

Luke's heart wrenched when he saw how stubborn Bianca was.

"I know you want to grow your own business, but you shouldn't gamble on your health. It doesn't matter if the company loses money. I'm here for you...

"I'm here for you."

That was the promise a man would give when his love was genuine.

Bianca had seen a movie where the male lead character used that line on the female lead. The female lead seemed unperturbed, but when she turned around, she could not hold back her emotions and started crying.

That scene had touched many people, including Bianca.

She felt that truly romantic lines were not meticulously drafted and sculpted. The most genuine lines were blurted instinctively in the most intimate moments.

She would like a romance like that, but she also wanted her business to grow.

She did not want to rely on men; she wanted to be a queen.

Bianca shook her head. "I want to be self-reliant and be as capable as you, not sheltered and protected..."

Luke knew that his wife was a sensible person, but she was also stubborn. He sighed helplessly.

He grabbed Bianca's arms and started walking out. "We'll get off work now.

Zander or I will pick you up from your office every day..." 1

Bianca was already feeling weak. When Luke dragged her, she felt even dizzier.

Her knee struck her chair, and she fell limply toward the floor.

She yelped in surprise. Suddenly, she felt her waist tighten, and she fell into Luke's embrace.

Luke was shocked. He could tell that Bianca was not looking well, but he did not expect that her body was so weak.

She used to be healthy, and she rarely caught a cold. What was going on? Content © copyrighted by .

"What happened to you, Bianca? I'll bring you to the hospital now," he said grimly.

Bianca felt her consciousness fading away.

She tried to focus her gaze on Luke, but there seemed to be two of him." I’m... a little dizzy. I might have a fever. I should be fine after taking some aspirin. There's some in my drawer..."

Luke picked up Bianca off her feet. "You're already sick, d*mn it. Why are you still so stubborn? If I hadn't come here to pick you up, you might have fainted here without anyone knowing."

Bianca did not answer. She felt extremely uncomfortable.

She closed her eyes and took in shallow breaths. Her head was spinning.

She did not feel anything when she was focused on her work. Now that he came and her mind relaxed, she suddenly felt lethargic.

Luke's expression was gloomy as he carried Bianca into the elevator. The worry on his face was palpable.

Bianca struggled to breathe in the cramped elevator.

Her chest felt stuff, and her head felt as though it was going to explode. It was hot, painful, and uncomfortable.

She tried to remain conscious, not willing to show her weak side to Luke.

The elevator stopped on the first floor.

Luke's car was in the basement parking lot. He put Bianca down in the lobby and told her, "Wait for me here, Bea. I'll bring the car here."

Bianca did not say anything. She nodded groggily.

Luke quickly ran toward the basement parking lot and drove the car out.

When Luke returned to where he left Bianca, he was shocked to see that there was no one in the dimly lit space...
