Chapter 908 Sometimes, He Threw the Ball in Her Direction So That He Could Look at Her

Luke's cold gaze lingered on Riley's face for one second before turning away to look at Bianca once more while placing the back of her hand in his cheek.

"To me, Bianca is a unique presence. No one in the world is like her, and no other woman is worthy of being her substitute." It was rare that Luke spoke so much about her, which warmed Bianca's heart as she listened to it.

She did in fact think that Riley looked somewhat similar to her, and she was quite appalled that Xavier could do such a thing.

However, Luke's words had made Bianca think that Xavier was doing all that in vain. She was irreplaceable after all.

The love that they gave Xavier could not be compared to the love that she gave Luke.

Riley seemed surprised. She had suspected Bianca's identity when she met her at the mall, but she did not expect that Bianca would be Luke Crawford's wife!

Her face turned red with embarrassment. Xavier seemed to have set her up for humiliation, while Luke had expressed his revulsion for her.

Women did not like being compared to one another.

She said coyly to Xavier, "What do you mean, Xavier? We don't look alike at all. I am me, and Mrs. Crawford is Mrs. Crawford."

Bianca agreed with what she said, regardless of her motive. "That's right.

Ms. Riley is young and beautiful, unlike me."

Xavier's expression sank, thinking that Riley was in no position to talk when men were talking. He shoved Riley, and she nearly fell.

Riley was angry. She was bearing Xavier's child, but Xavier did not seem to care for her at all. She wanted to throw a tantrum but dared not to.

She still had to maintain Xavier's favor. After all, she had always dreamed of living the high life.

Xavier was rich, and he was younger and much more handsome than the other sugar daddies.

She bunched up her hair and sat down elegantly at another seat. Her gaze was brimming with her love for Xavier.

Xavier did not look at her. His gaze was transfixed obsessively on Bianca.

If Luke had not interfered, Bianca would still be his wife!

Bianca hated being stared at like that. She lowered her head and sipped her juice, pretending that she did not care.

"That's quite enough of you looking at Bianca, my cousin. Please remember that she is my wife," Luke said coldly.

Xavier did not feel embarrassed after being called out. Instead, he felt angry.

Riley's nails were digging into her palm. She almost could not maintain the smile on her face.

"Have you heard?" Xavier said ominously as though he was not afraid of offending Luke, "What goes around comes around."

He was referring to the fact that Luke had taken Bianca from him.

Bianca was angry. She would not have gone to the courthouse with him if he had not deceived her!

He would still be in prison if not that Yvonne had taken the fall!

Bianca squeezed Luke's hand. She did not plan to speak, but she could not stop herself, "Luke and I genuinely love each other, ever since we were in school."

While they were still students, they did not profess their feelings for each other.

Even so, after so many obstacles, they remained together.

Xavier was furious.

Before he could lose his temper, a servant came to speak to him. "Sir has been looking for you, Mr. Xavier. You may find him in the study."

Xavier grunted coldly. "Is there anything that can't wait until the end of the banquet?" "Sir insists that you meet him right away." The servant seemed to be quite troubled. He did not want to offend Daniel.

Xavier left the table. He felt aggrieved by what Bianca said, but he had nowhere to release his anger.

Seeing that she was left behind, Riley could only helplessly follow him," Wait for me, Xavier."

Bianca gradually relaxed her brows. She genuinely hated Xavier, but she noticed that Luke was not angry at all. Instead, he was smiling.

"Are you smiling?" She was quite surprised because Xavier's words did not anger him.

Even though Luke had ended that farce of a marriage, she was nonetheless a remarried woman. Luke should have found offense in that.

He nodded and gently stroked Bianca's hair that was scattered on her shoulders. "I'm reminiscing about the time back in high school when you were standing behind the wall and looking at me playing basketball. I could instantly tell what you were thinking."

Bianca lowered her head slightly in embarrassment. She was blushing hard.

"Unfortunately, I could not choose my significant other. If I had, I would have confessed to you. I've been wondering if our life would be easier if I had confessed to you back then," Luke said as he looked at Bianca's blushing face.

Boys who played basketball in school were the most popular among girls, especially Luke, whose appearance was extraordinary.

Many girls would watch him from the side of the court and would try to court him.

Bianca was the only girl who stood farther away at the low wall. Luke waited for her to approach him with a towel and a bottle of water, and he rejected all the other girls' advances.

Bianca, on the other hand, did not understand Luke's thoughts. Luke had purposely thrown the ball in her direction just so that he could look at her, but when their eyes met, she would lower her head like a frightened rabbit, just like what she was doing now.

Seeing how timid Bianca was, Luke did not attempt to court her.

Bianca shook her head. "I don't know. Back then, you were too outstanding.

I could never dream of being with you."

Nina had urged her to confess to Luke more than once. Property © .

Bianca felt inferior for being an unremarkable girl raised by her grandfather.

What right did she have to be the most popular boy's girlfriend?

She had been hampered by her self-inferiority since young.

She would not have been confident if not for Luke's support either.

Bianca noticed that Luke's smiling was becoming more and more profound. She looked around and noticed that many women were ogling at him.

She was not happy that other women are coveting her husband.

"Should we leave now, or are we waiting for something?" She asked softly.

Luke shook her head. He had prepared something for the night. "We can't leave yet, but you don't have to worry that Xavier would look for trouble with you."

Bianca was not worried, but she did not want to see that man again.

Xavier should have borne the most responsibility for Old Master Rayne's current state, but he managed to get off scot-free thanks to Yvonne.

Not only that, but Bianca always felt uneasy when she saw Xavier’s wildness.

Bianca understood that Luke was waiting for something to happen. She nodded and did not say anything else.

Daniel was drawing deeply from his cigarette in the study.

Various objects were scattered across the table, including the package that Luke had given him earlier.

He thought that Luke would be giving him an expensive present, but it turned out to be a document!

He had never known that Xavier had done so many ridiculous things!
