Chapter 870 A Fairytale Wedding

The drama at the dining table ended abruptly.

Study.

Old Master Crawford looked at his handsome grandson who was sitting on the sofa and sighed at how fast time passed.

Unknowingly, Zachary had already left for so many years and the baby who was wailing in the swaddle had grown into one of the most influential and highly praised business leaders in the world.

Old Master Crawford talked to Luke about T Corporation and then the topic shifted to his personal affairs. ’Luke, are you firm on having a wedding with Bianca on the 16th? To be honest, Bianca is a wonderful woman and it's your luck to be able to spend your life with her. It’s just that ... the timing of your wedding is a little rushed. After all, the collapse of The Galleria happened not long ago. I'm afraid that a grand wedding at this timing will lead to strong dissatisfaction from the families of those victims.

Luke ashed his cigarette and replied nonchalantly, "I had set the date long ago. I wanted to give her a make-up wedding a long time ago but I haven't had the time. I don't want to postpone it anymore. We’ll have our wedding somewhere private, where no reporters will be able to follow nor interfere."

When Old Master Crawford saw that his grandson was firm with his decision, he did not comment further. He said in a grandfatherly tone, "I'm happy for you and Bianca. She's a kind and sensible woman. Take good care of her and make sure that this doesn't end in a divorce or some sex scandal."

Luke smiled and replied, "Grandpa, do you think I'm that kind of person? Bianca is the person I’m going to spend my life with. I'll love her until my last breath."

On the way back, Bianca looked at Luke who was in the driver's seat. She still could not believe he had said what he said in Crawford Manor.

He said that they would have a grand wedding.

Luke glanced at Bianca, whose skin was radiant and cheeks were rosy. Her cherry lips were slightly parted and her beautiful eyes glanced at him from time to time. She was fascinating to him.

He held the steering wheel with one hand and squeezed her face with the other. "What’s the matter? Why do you keep looking at me like this?"

Bianca grabbed his hand and said, "What did Grandpa talk to you about in the study?"

Luke raised his eyebrows and replied, ’’Nothing to worry about. Grandpa told me that you’re going to make a wonderful granddaughter-in-law. He said that you’re knowledgeable and reasonable. He also asked me to treat you well. He said that he won't forgive me if I disappointed you."

Bianca scratched her head and asked blankly, "Huh? Did Grandpa say that?

I thought he didn’t like me..."

Bianca nor her parents were able to help out much with the incident with The Galleria. Old Master Crawford, who used to be enthusiastic toward her, turned cold after that.

Luke flicked her and said, "Silly girl, why would you think that? Who doesn't like a good woman like you? Grandpa loves you."

Bianca lowered her gaze and then blinked her bright eyes. "Are we getting married on the 16th? Why didn't you talk to me about it? This is too sudden, I don't feel ready."

Luke's gaze locked on her pretty face. He could not help but squint as he said, "I thought you were looking forward to being my bride and would be happy to hear the news. I thought all women wanted a romantic wedding?" Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Although she had not said anything about the wedding that he owed her, he could tell that Bianca was envious whenever they were invited to others ' weddings.

Therefore, he wanted to give her a fairytale wedding, write their romantic chapter, and draw a perfect end to their marriage.

On the other end of the city, Norman Residence.

For the past couple of days, Leia had been feeling that something was off. She had been experiencing a loss of appetite, nausea, and a constant urge to vomit.

She thought it was related to stress and did not think too much about it.

That was until Queenie placed a delicious piece of cooked fish onto her plate.

The moment she sniffed the fishy smell, Leia grew nauseous and forcibly covered her mouth. However, it was too late. Before she knew it, the contents in her stomach spilled onto the dining table.

Queenie was concerned when she saw Leia react in such a way.

She patted her daughter's back lightly, her elegant face frowning as she said, ’Leia, what's wrong? Did you eat something bad? Or are you..."

Queenie did not dare to finish her sentence.

She felt a chill going down her spine at the thought that it might be true.

'Would such a well-behaved child like my dear Leia get pregnant before marriage? Although... her symptoms are similar to mine when I was pregnant...'

Queenie had acted the same way when she was pregnant with Bianca. Her stomach was always upset and she could not stomach anything.

"Mom, my stomach has been acting weird recently. Maybe it’s because I had some unsanitary food in a restaurant outside. Don't worry, I’m sure I'll be fine," Leia said in a calm tone, but she was panicking internally.

'No, I can't be pregnant! I took the abortion pills...'

Moreover, she had bled for several days.

That bastard child should be gone.

However, she still had a bad feeling about it.

Queenie was worried. "How about this? When you're done eating, I'll take you to the hospital for a check-up. I know a gastroenterologist in the hospital."

Leia's gaze flickered as she refused. ’Mom, it's okay, don't worry. I’m going to an art exhibition with a friend today and the art exhibition center is very close to the city hospital. I'll just go there for a check- up.” "Okay, please keep me posted after the results are out." "I will, Mom."

In the afternoon, Leia rushed to the private women’s hospital and went to look for Dr. Hoover in the gynecology department. However, she found that Dr. Hoover had been replaced by another female doctor who looked to be about 40 years old and wore glasses.

The doctor greeted her with a gentle voice when she saw Leia, "Hello! I’m Dr. Luis, I’m new here. What can I help you with?"

Leia did not even bother taking off her sunglasses before she asked straightforwardly, "Where is Dr. Hoover? Is she not here today? I'm her patient."

The doctor nodded and replied, "Oh, so you're a patient of Dr. Hoover? She doesn't work here anymore." "Why?" "The hospital's management team suspects Dr. Hoover of working with drug dealers to sell fake abortion drugs through the hospital in exchange for a high commission. Last week, she was taken to the police station for investigation..."

The words of the doctor were like a bolt from the blue sky. Leia was shaken to her core...
