Chapter 45 Luke Crawford Was A Drug
Before they headed off to the lunch meeting, Bianca and Sue made a trip back to the design
department.
Bianca walked to her workstation and put down theptop she had brought upstairs earlier. After that,
the phone she had left on the table rang once.
It was an unknown number.
The number began with 138 and ended with 6688. The contents of the message was, "Miss Bea, I''m
almost on my summer break. Will you be free ten days from now?"
Bianca guessed that the number was nche’s.
She quickly replied, "I''m really busy with work, and I just got assigned with an important project. I have
to earn money so I can eat and live, so I can’t take you out to y. Sorry.”
She clearly expressed her reluctance to have too much to do with Luke Crawford''s son.
She hated the way Luke misunderstood her. She had never approached his son because she wanted
to seduce him.
In this society, any man as wealthy and powerful as Luke Crawford was probably used to having his
guard up against women with ulterior motives approaching him.
If such a woman was lucky enough to not earn his ire, there was a chance she could start a
rtionship with him. However, such a rtionship would only be limited to an exchange of money and
bodies.
In short, the heart would never be involved.
Bianca had seen plenty of gossip surrounding these rich and powerful people, and she knew very well
that it was not a game a woman like her could y.
Luke Crawford was a taboo, a taboo deep in her heart.
No matter how tempting he was, he could only ever be opium to her, a drug to avoid.
After a long time, nche finally replied with, "Oh, okay " The six dots at
the end showed just how upset and disappointed the little boy was feeling right now.
She had no choice, though. She had to be wary of his father.
She thought-lf Lanie and Rainie were orphans, children nobody wanted, she might adopt them. She
practically had no parents herself right now, so she might take them in and try to raise them as she
earned money while reaching for her designer dream.
Unfortunately, they were not orphans. In fact, they had a very prominent man as their father. 3
Bianca steeled her heart and stopped replying.
Putting her phone away, she walked out of the design department.
Jean stood up as well. He had seen just how conflicted she looked, and he did not know what she was
thinking about, or who she was thinking about. Even so, he felt furious!
Bianca had barely reached the washroom entrance when arge hand grabbed her from behind!
"What are you doing? We''re at work now, let go..." Bianca tried to pull her hand back, looking at Jean
with hostility.
"Come with me!" 1
He dragged Bianca into the pantry.
"Let go!" Bianca struggled, if you don''t let go, I’ll yell!"
Jean had forced her into a corner, taunting her, "Yell? Are you sure you can still yet? I thought you lost
your voice that night after that man f*cked you senseless."
Bianca shrank away. "Jean Langdon, don''t be so unreasonable.
"I’m being unreasonable?" Jean said wildly, as though he had just heard an absurd joke. "My fiancee
cucked me, but I can''t evenin about it? Are you bipr or something? You got engaged with me

slept with another man on the other! Have you no shame, Bianca Rayne? Howe I never knew you
were so loose while we were studying?"
Bianca was so enraged that she burst outughing. She looked at him and said calmly, ‘Well, now you
know. It isn''t toote yet."
Jean did not expect her to admit it so freely. It only angered him even further!
After the 96 hours he spent in detention thest time, he did not dare to use violence on her anymore.
The veins popping in his forehead, he resisted the impulse and swore at her, "I was so motherf*cking
blind! How could I fall for trash like you? Thank goodness I didn''t marry you, or else when I''m old and
infirm in bed, you might just bring another filthy man into our house."
"Do you know you''re being really disgusting?!" Bianca felt cold all over. She did not want to listen to
another word, so she turned and left.
Someone threw open the pantry door.
Sue had emerged from the washroom. When she saw Jean''s vicious re, she immediately told
Bianca, "Let’s go, Bianca."
Since there were others around, Jean did not go too far. He just looked at Bianca’s back as he left,
clenching his fist tightly. No man would be able to stand being cucked like that.
That woman was not his wife, but she was the woman he had chosen.
From the day he chose her, he had decided that she was only ever allowed to love him.
Over all the years they had known each other, Bianca had never disappointed him. Now, though, he
knew that she was not the well- mannered woman he thought she was. 2
Marie Rayne said she had been sleeping around even when they were abroad, and she even had
several partners! 1
After that intense fight several days ago, he had regretted it and worried that he had misunderstood
her, but after the voices he heard with own ears that night a few days ago, he was certain that she
really was a dirty b*tch!
There was no way he wanted to touch a filthy whore like that. 1
Still, he was angry and resentful at her for ying him like a fiddle over the past five years. 1
No man would be able to brush off a grudge like that! 1
Bianca went downstairs, utterly dejected.
Sue nced at the office door and asked her, "Are you alright?”
Bianca simply nodded.
"I just came out of the bathroom, and I was too close to you, so I heard everything... I''m sure you''re not
the kind of woman he says you are. Your ex is nuts, methinks," Sue said.
Bianca did not want everyone to think of her as a whore. She wanted to exin, but she did not know
where to start.
Eventually, she decided on telling Sue what she really thought. "Jean wasn''tpletely wrong. He did
find a man at my ce, but that was after we had a huge fight and officially broke up."
Sue looked at her, surprised.
Bianca forced herself to continue, "I think that man might like me a little, but he doesn’t really love me, I
know that for sure... I can''t tell if it''s just a whim of his or anything else, but my refusals pale in
comparison to his overbearing approach."
Sue was not surprised that Bianca had a suitor.
What did surprise her, though, was the type of man trying to pursue her...
What kind of a man would make her use words like "on a whim" and " overbearing approach"?
The two of them walked to the door, and Sue asked out of concern, "Jean is in the same department as
you are, so how will you deal with him from now on? You can avoid him, but he won''t avoid you."
Bianca made a decision. "Once I get my sry, I think I''ll resign."
Sue immediately stood still and looked at her evenly. ''That won''t do. You can''t joke about that! I gave
you all these opportunities, so you''ll be letting me down if you resign."
The moment she said that, Bianca instantly felt guilty. 1
However, it would really be hard for her to untangle some rtionships unless she resigned.
There were two luxury cars waiting outside the T Corporation door. When Jason saw Bianca and Sue
walk out, he first said, "Miss Rayne, get into this car."
He had Sue take the other car, saying that she was in charge of chatting with their partners.
Nevertheless, Sue could tell what was really happening at a nce.
Jason stood outside the door, opening it for Bianca respectfully.
Bianca looked at the man sitting at the back of the Bentley. She was terrified, but she had no choice.
She had to go inside.
Luke had been resting with his eyes closed. When he sensed a slender shadow falling over him, he
opened his eyes.
