Chapter 136 Luke Asked Her If She Was On Her Period


    She cried in Luke''s arms for a long, long time until the surrounding crickets quieted down. Bianca had


    tired herself from crying and felt a faint soreness in her lower abdomen and lower back, i


    It was a feeling that she had for years which she experienced once every month.


    Only this time, it seemed to havee many days in advance.


    When a woman''s body did not get enough rest, the body would react abnormally, and that included


    having irregr periods.


    Bianca withdrew from his arms. She was anxious and embarrassed. She squeezed out the warm tears


    from her eyes.


    When Luke''s chest suddenly felt empty, he looked sadly at her and asked, "Should we head back to A


    City or continue looking around the town? Does Grandpa have any rtives in town?"


    He would respect any decision she made.


    "Grandpa doesn''t have any rtives in town..."


    Bianca suddenly thought that if Grandpa really ran away from home, he would never return to town.


    When she thought about it, she started worrying about Grandpa being in danger.


    All the horrible images flooded into her mind all at once.


    Luke seemed to know what she was thinking and stepped forward. Hebed down her messy hair


    while she cried in his arms. "No news is good news. If anything happened to Grandpa, someone


    would’ve told the police by now."


    Bianca looked up at him, instinctively believing every word he said.


    Without her knowing it, she relied on him wholeheartedly.


    "Really. Trust me." Luke''s deep eyes looked into her fragile eyes.


    Bianca nodded. ''It''ll be okay. Grandpa will be okay.''


    It was as if telling herself that over and over again would make Grandpa be safe...


    "Get in the car. Let''s head back to A City." Luke ced his big arm on her left shoulder and led her to


    the car.


    However, Bianca suddenly stopped and thought about it. She said, "Wait here. I need to go to the


    supermarket to buy some things. Don''t follow me."


    This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    After she said that, she left.


    It was dark everywhere with no street lights around. The only light source was the moonlight.


    Bianca did not dare not to get into his car straight away because she was afraid that she would stain


    his car seat. Furthermore, she knew that her period was only going to get


    heavier with time...


    Luke stood tall and straight at the gate like a night knight who had justnded on earth.


    In front of him was his parked ck Range Rover.


    Luke stared at her thin figure walking toward the supermarket. He did not hold back and followed her


    in.


    The Raynes’ old house was some distance away from the supermarket. Since it had been a long time


    since she was back in the small town, she was a little unfamiliar with the ce now despite it being her


    hometown.


    Luke could not bear seeing her figure leave his sight.


    When she arrived at the supermarket, Bianca took out her cell phone and turned on the shlight to


    look for the supermarket doorbell.


    In small towns like Luojiazhen, supermarkets usually closed after nine.


    No one came that early unless it was for urgent matters.


    "Why isn''t there a doorbell?" Bianca muttered anxiously while searching for it.


    Luke approached, reached out his arm, and knocked on the door.


    "Anyone there?"


    The man''s voice was maic, and he quickly heard the owner inside asking, "It''s the middle of the


    night. Who is it?" "We’re here to buy some things. Can you open the door for us..." Bianca said first.


    Luke''s cold and hard voice was able to wake up the owner, but perhaps the owner would not dare to


    open the door to such a scary voice.


    When the owner heard that there was also a girl, the owner put on a robe and opened the door for


    them.


    The owner was a middle-aged woman, and she looked up at the two people outside the door.


    "You don''t look like locals." The owner hesitated whether to close the door on them.


    "I need to buy something," Bianca said. She turned around and said to Luke, "Stand outside and wait


    for me. Don''te in."


    Luke did not go in.


    Bianca took out her money and bought a pack of sanitary pads.


    After the female owner collected the money, she showed her out. It was the middle of the night and


    they were two non -locals. Even though the girl looked beautiful and harmless, she still had to be on


    her guard.


    "Excuse me, may I use the toilet?" Bianca asked for help.


    "Toilet?" The female owner refused loudly. "No! Go somewhere else!"


    After she said that, she drove her out.


    Bianca had no choice but to leave the supermarket.


    Even though she had bought her pads, there was no ce for her to put one on...


    Luke lit a cigarette outside the door, took a puff, and looked back at her. He asked, "What''s the


    matter?"


    Bianca looked at the distance. There were no lights around except for the guest house.


    "What''s the matter?" Luke suddenly became serious and found that she had been acting mysteriously


    since going to the supermarket. He felt that she was deliberately hiding something from him.


    "It''s nothing. Let''s go to the guest house," Bianca said, shoving the sanitary pads into her pocket.


    Luke grabbed one of her wrists and brought her in front of him. He used his other hand to grab the


    thing out from her denim shorts'' small pocket to see what it was.


    It was a pack of daily ultra-thin sanitary pads.


    With a cigarette in Luke''s mouth, he squinted his eyes and looked at her. "You''re on your period?"


    "I..." Bianca''s cheeks flushed as she lowered her head.


    ''How does he find everything out?


    ''And he just says it straight out bluntly.''


    Luke returned the pads to her. He said in a deadpan voice as he ordered her, "At special times like


    these, I hope you rest well. If you continue running around and working too hard, you''ll burn yourself


    out."


    The man walked in front while she walked behind as he pulled her by her wrist toward the guest house.


    Since it was a small town, there was only that one small guest house.


    After checking in, she put on her pad in the bathroom while he waited outside. He stood outside the


    bathroom and waited because he was worried that the other guests from the other rooms would


    frighten her if they came to use the bathroom.


    "Let’s stay here for a night. Jason has already arranged for someone to guard your neighborhood and


    your ce to look out for Grandpa. The moment we find out anything about him, we''ll be notified


    immediately," Luke said to her while she was inside the bathroom. However, he was also worried that


    she would not be able to rest well, so he had to lie. "Also, I don''t think I can drive anymore. I don''t want


    to get us into an ident from me driving lethargically."


    There was nothing for Bianca to refute. As such, she agreed to stay in the town for a night.


    After he sent Bianca back to their room, Luke went out to ask the owner for simple toiletries to be sent


    to the room. While she showered, he asked the owner to make a warm supper as well.


    In order to make some money, the owner quickly put down her cell phone poker game that she was


    ying and happily ran to the kitchen to make some porridge.


    "Is there anything that your wife doesn''t eat?" thedy owner came out and asked.


    Luke thought for a while and said solemnly, "She''s on her period, so avoid those things that she''s not


    supposed to have while on it."


    Thedy owner was taken aback for a moment, then nodded. "Okay, got it. No worries."


    Luke nodded back. "Thank you."


    After a while, thedy owner''s husband came into the kitchen while thedy owner prepared a


    nutritious bowl of porridge. She whispered, "Look how gentlemanly, polite, and considerate he is to his


    wife. Meanwhile, you ipetent stinking man just nag at your wife all day long."


    After eating the hot porridge, Bianca''s stomach felt better.


    Even though there was only one room and the two of them had to share the same bed, she believed


    that he would not do anything to her with Grandpa missing.


    Therefore, she was able to close her eyes peacefully and finally get the rest she desperately longed for.


    When it was around three in the morning, she was sound asleep.


    Luke''s hot body enveloped her as he held her in his arms.


    Since she had just started her period cycle, it made her body cold and weak. Her body automatically


    yearned for a warm ce. Before she knew it, she was huddled up in his arms.


    Luke did not sleep a wink because he was worried about her. His warm and rough left hand stretched


    out into her shirt to warm up her lower abdomen. He wanted to help her keep warm so that she was


    able to sleep better.
