Chapter 795 Don't Dodge the Question, Luke

The "answer" that they wanted was, of course, the amount of compensation that they would receive.

Even without the families of the deceased protesting, Luke would be granting them the maximum amount.

He might be the Cold-Faced Devil in the business world, but he was influenced by Bianca's kindness after spending a long time with her.

However, he was unhappy that those people had surrounded the hospital.

He wondered if they caused Bianca, who was back at home, any trouble.

Luke turned his ice-cold gaze at Jason. "Are they bothering Bianca?"

He did not mind being embroiled in controversy, but he hoped that the mob would not harass his wife and children.

Bianca had stayed in the hospital for the past few days to take care of him. She was at her physical limit, and Luke forced her to go home and rest.

Jason answered instantly, "Don’t worry, they're not going to find her at the mansion. The security measures are tight there, and there hasn't been any trouble." "Mm, that's good to know. I'll be discharged today. You can tell Bianca that she doesn't have to go to the company." "Understood."

After dealing with many miscellaneous matters, Luke left the hospital through a secret exit and managed to evade the troublemakers and the reporters.

It was almost midnight when he returned to the mansion.

The caretaker was surprised to see him back home. She escorted him to his room. "You're back, Sir! Madam has been talking about you. Have you had your dinner?"

The caretaker took his coat and diligently hung it at the coat rack.

Luke stepped into the room and asked, "I haven't. Is Bianca asleep?"

The caretaker replied, "Madam and the children went to bed after dinner. I'll go and heat the leftovers in the kitchen." "Mm," Luke's eyelids drooped as he took off his shirt. No one knew what he was thinking.

A while later, he stood up and went upstairs.

The caretaker glanced at Luke’s back while she heated the food in the kitchen and was reminded that Bianca seemed depressed in the past few days. She felt sorry for the couple that seemed to be always beset with ordeals, i

She knew that Luke and Bianca shared a loving relationship, but she also knew that many relationships would break down in times of crisis. Would this couple be able to weather through the storm?

Eventually, the caretaker shook her head, sighed, and went on with her work.

When Luke opened the door, he saw Bianca sleeping on their bed with the three children.

There were four visible mounds under the blanket, one big and three small.

Under the dim nightlight, Bianca's brows were tightly furrowed, but the twins and Tommy were sleeping soundly.

The faces of the three children were free of worry.

He stood at the door staring at the tranquil scene for a minute before walking inside and planted a heavy kiss on Bianca's fair forehead.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Bianca had not been sleeping well for the past few days. She was a light sleeper because of her nightmares.

Luke's actions woke her up from her dreams.

She opened her eyes groggily and mumbled indistinctly, "You're back, Luke?

"Mm," Luke replied gently. His heart was filled with tenderness as he looked at her innocent expression, and he gently bit her tender lips.

The gentle kiss turned Bianca's limbs into jello.

Her eyes suddenly opened wide. "Why are you out of the hospital, Luke? You haven't fully recovered yet, right? Why don't you stay there for a few more days? You didn't even tell me that you're discharged. I could've gone over and fetched you..."

She sounded like she was complaining as she sat up on the bed.

Her hair was disheveled. A few stray strands covered her clear eyes.

Luke straightened her hair and pecked her lips. "Those aren't serious injuries, and so they recover quite fast. Johann said that I can be discharged too. I don't like the smell of disinfectant in the hospital. Our home smells nicer."

The words "our home" brought warmth to Bianca's heart.

She was nonetheless worried when she thought about the injuries he sustained. "You'd better stay at home for the next few days and don't overwork yourself. I can share your workload. Remember, Luke Crawford, I am your wife and your comrade in battle. Don't bear all the responsibility yourself," Bianca said sternly.

That was the first time that Bianca had used that serious tone with him. It was also her first time emphasizing her identity to him.

Luke's gaze swept carefully over her defiant face, seeming in search of something as he looked at her stiffly straight body. No one knew what he was thinking.

Bianca was a stubborn one. She would not give up unless she received an affirmative answer from Luke.

She did not expect Luke to lean over and gently kiss her lips.

Bianca was somewhat frustrated that the man had always kissed her as a way to evade her questions.

She wanted to push him away, but his actions were so gentle. He held and kissed her as though she was an extremely rare treasure.

Bianca was beginning to waver, but she wanted to hear Luke make that promise. "Say it to me, Luke. I'm not going to let you get away with kissing this time!"

Luke smiled helplessly and patted her head indulgently. "Alright, I promise you. We shall be comrades in battle from now on. Are you happy now?"

Bianca smiled and nodded.

Meanwhile, in a luxurious five-star hotel.

White gauze curtains draped from the ceiling. Fragrant rose petals were scattered on the pure white bed sheets.

A naked couple was making out on the round water bed.

The extremely beautiful and voluptuous woman had distinctive Eastern European features. She was none other than Kassy, who had been in hiding.a

Under her was a handsome young man with sculpted facial features and a strong and lean body.

Upon closer inspection, he looked startlingly similar to Luke Crawford...

He should have been strong and resilient, but he seemed to be in his last throes. The women seemed to have sucked all vitality from his body, and his usually seductive eyes were hollow.

The woman was like a succubus with an unquenchable desire. He was almost dead from an entire night of making out!

The man's eyes glazed over and passed out.

"Useless piece of trash!" Kassy kicked the unconscious man onto the floor and cursed viciously.

As she glanced at the dying man on the floor, Luke's charming face surfaced in her mind once more...
