Chapter 386 Mr. Crawford’s Sudden Change In Demeanor!


    "I''m not judging you, Sue, but it''s just that your symptoms look very simr to what I went through when


    I was pregnant... I mean, a woman should be in charge of her own health. I think you should go to the


    hospital for a checkup."


    Bianca knew how helpless a woman could be when they became pregnant before marriage.


    Back then, she did not know that the father of the babies in her womb was Luke. She had thought that


    the father was some despicable old man, and that she would never forget the physical and mental


    torment she went through during her pregnancy.


    Bianca''s words seemed to have convinced Sue.


    She rubbed her temples, trying to recall something. That night, she had gotten herself drunk at a bar


    and spent a wild night with a stranger. Her heart nearly stopped when she thought of that.


    ''That can''t be. It''s just one night. Why am I so unlucky?’


    Sue tried to deceive herself that it was not the case. She felt as though her head was going to explode.


    She felt another wave of nausea. "Bianca, can you help me get a pregnancy test strip from the


    pharmacy nearby?" She asked Bianca in panic, "Right, I don''t want anyone else to know about this." "I


    understand, Sue. I''ll keep it a secret for you. Just wait for me for a while.


    I''ll be back with the test strips soon."


    It was the evening rush hour, and the T Corporation employees were streaming out of their offices.


    A crowd was waiting in the elevator lobby. Bianca was in a hurry to buy the pregnancy test strips, so


    she went into the CEO''s personal elevator.


    Luke would often bring her into his personal elevator. Bianca forgot that regr employees could only


    take employee elevators.


    When Bianca stepped out of the CEO''s personal elevator and saw the other employees looking at her


    weirdly while whispering to each other, she realized that she had made a big mistake.


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    However, she was not in the mood to be bothered with all that.


    She quickly ran toward the pharmacy.


    Many employees, especially the gossips, talked among themselves at the elevator lobby.


    "Eh, isn''t that Bianca Rayne from the design department? I''m envious that the boss treats her


    differently. Look at her. She gets to ride the boss''s personal elevator," Female Colleague A said.


    Female Colleague B nodded in agreement. However, there was a hint of jealousy in her gaze. "She


    doesn’t look that remarkable, and she dresses so shabbily. I think I look better than her. I wonder why


    did the boss take a liking to her?"


    Female Colleague B was from the PR department. She was famous in thepany for her outstanding


    looks and tall figure.


    She had admired Luke and wished that her love would be returned. Unfortunately for her, her wish


    never came true.


    She was naturally jealous when she saw that an unremarkable woman had gained Mr. Crawford''s


    favor.


    Female Colleague C nced disdainfully at her. ''Tch. You always wear so seductively every day, as


    though you''re selling your body. It''ll be a miracle if the boss likes you!''


    At the pharmacy near thepany, rows of products were disyed on the racks.


    Bianca quickly took two different products. One was a box of test strips, and the other was a test stick.


    She wanted to get a double confirmation.


    Bianca knew how Sue must be feeling right now. The sudden realization that one was pregnant could


    cause panic and helplessness.


    After buying the items, Bianca went back to thepany.


    In a hurry, Bianca identally ran into someone, and the items in her hands fell on the floor and caught


    everyone’s eye.


    The T Corporation employees'' usatory gazes fell on Bianca.


    Bianca rubbed her nose that was in pain. She did not notice who was the one she had knocked into


    and crouched on the floor to pick up the items.


    Suddenly, someone grabbed her arm and picked her up.


    It was Luke. "Uh, Mr. Crawford..." Bianca said awkwardly. She had always called him that in the


    company.


    Luke narrowed his eyes and looked at the items in her hands. His lips faintly curled up in surprise. "Are


    you pregnant, Bianca?"


    Bianca knew that Luke must have misunderstood her, but she had to keep the secret for Sue...


    There was a rule in thepany that a pregnant employee could not be promoted.


    That would be lethal for Sue''s career!


    She tried to calm herself down. "N... No, my period has beente for a few days, so I''m trying to check


    if there''s anything..."


    Luke''s gazended on her tightly kneaded hands and smiled. "I remember that thest time you had


    your period was on the 8th. It''s only less than half a month away. If you want to test, shouldn''t you be


    waiting until the 8th of the next month?"


    The man''s gentle smile was dazzling, and that had made Bianca blush even harder. 1


    He could remember the date of her period. That way, she would not be able to lie to him.


    "I... I’m buying this so that I can use it when the timees," Bianca said unconfidently.


    "Oh?" Luke stared at her curiously. Her fair face was slightly pink from blushing, and she was


    subconsciously biting her lip.


    Bianca always blushed whenever she told a lie. That was the same as Rainie.


    She stood there awkwardly for some time before saying softly, "I''ll tell you the truth. I''m buying this for a


    colleague, but I can''t tell you who it is. I''ve promised the other party that I will keep this a secret. I''ll be


    delivering this to her. See youter."


    Bianca felt like she was a monkey at a zoo when the people around her looked at her with surprised


    gazes. She was very ufortable.


    Luke also knew that he should not probe into his employees'' personal lives.


    He caressed Bianca''s smooth hair and said gently, "Come down to the parking lot after you''re done. I''ll


    be waiting for you."


    Bianca nodded and dashed away.


    After she left, Luke''s gentle gaze turned harsh and cold.


    He swept his gaze across the curious crowd, establishing his domineering presence to the people


    around him. The employees quickly averted their gazes and pretended that they did not see anything...


    ''Oh my god! The boss is too scary! Was that gentleman earlier the same person as the Cold-Faced


    Devil?''
