Chapter 443 I’m Getting Married on the First of May? Why Didn''t I Know About That?


    Jack helped Old Mr. Norman get to his feet. The old man looked at Luke appreciatively and said,


    "You''re here, Luke and Bianca. Thank you foring to visit me. You even brought presents!"


    Luke greeted the two men courteously and ced the fruit basket on the table. Then, he helped Old


    Mr. Norman sit down on his chair again. "Please sit down. I heard that you''re not feeling well, so Bianca


    and I are here to visit. How are you feeling?" "I''m fine. There''s nothing major..." Old Mr. Norman said


    tenderly, "You''re here too, Bianca. I happen to have several questions to ask you about the design.


    There are a few parts that I don''t understand..."


    Bianca smiled gently and said, "I will answer any questions that you might have to your satisfaction,


    Old Mr. Norman." "That''s great! Leia,e over here and greet our guests." Old Mr. Norman beckoned


    to Leia.


    Leia walked over obediently and said sweetly, "Grandpa."


    Her smile was gentle and beautiful but superficial.


    Bianca noticed that Leia''s gaze on her was as sharp and cold as knives of ice. That sent a chill down


    her spine.


    Old Mr. Norman introduced Bianca to his granddaughter. "This is Bianca Rayne. She''s an architectural


    designer from T Corporation. She''s amazing for designing marvelous works at such a young age!" He


    praised.


    Leia hid the disdain in her eyes. She stared at Bianca and said gently," Bianca and I know each other,


    Grandpa. She helped me when I was doing mymercial shoot at T Corporation."


    When she recalled the time when she was supposed to torment Bianca but ended up having her


    endorsement deal taken away, she was frustrated and angry!


    "Oh, so Leia knows Ms. Rayne! Which college did you go to, Ms. Rayne?" A shrill voice was heard


    from behind. Bianca turned around and saw that it was Old Mrs. Norman.


    Old Mrs. Norman knew that her granddaughter had a crush on Luke. She was also satisfied with the


    young man''s character.


    Unfortunately, the man loved another woman. Old Mrs. Norman had always doted on her adoptive


    granddaughter, and she thought that Leia was the best. Leia''s character, upbringing, and looks were all


    better than Bianca''s, so why did Bianca deserve to be with Luke?


    She was unhappy about Bianca''s presence, and therefore there were barbs in her words.


    Bianca could understand Old Mrs. Norman''s hostility, but she nheless felt uneasy about it.


    Leia was a love rival, and her grandmother naturally sided with her.


    She did not pay any heed to it. Instead, she said candidly, "I graduated from a normal college abroad,


    Old Mrs. Norman. The name isn''t worth mentioning. I don''t think the name of the college is as important


    as how the knowledge is applied. After all, an academic degree is but a stepping stone. What''s more


    important is one''s abilities."


    Old Mrs. Norman was disdainful when she heard that. She thought that Bianca did not want to let her


    know about the name of the college because she graduated from a degree mill.


    She continued praising her granddaughter, "My Leia graduated from the London College of Arts. That''s


    one of the most prestigious colleges in the world. She got a visual and performing arts degree from


    there, and that''s why she received the best actress award in her debut role. Unlike some people who


    say that they study overseas, they probably paid some money to a third-rate degree mill..."


    Bianca replied modestly, "Money can''t buy a degree from my university, Old Mrs. Norman. St. Andrew''s


    College is known for its academic integrity, and it has one of the best research and academic facilities


    in the world. It''s no Oxford or Cambridge, but it''s the third best university in Ennd. We''re not the


    best, but we''re not the worst either.”


    Bianca''s words made Old Mrs. Norman shut her mouth.


    At the same time, they made Leia blush with embarrassment.


    Leia''s university sounded prestigious, but it was ranked in the hundreds whenpared to the other


    colleges. It was far worse than Bianca''s university.


    Bianca knew that Old Mrs. Norman was unhappy about her. She smiled politely and spoke no more.


    Old Mrs. Norman did not want to be courteous toward Bianca, but she could not lose her temper in


    front of everyone either.


    After all, Bianca was her husband''s guest.


    Meanwhile, Old Mr. Norman, Jack, and Luke were talking.


    As they chatted, Jack became more and more impressed by Luke''s abilities. The young man was a


    genuine business prodigy. With him at the helm of T Corporation, he controlled the entire city''s


    economy. Hispany and subsidiaries represented one-third of the total tax revenue of the city, i


    Luke also talked about T Corporation''s future expansion ns. Jack felt that the evidence for the young


    man''s bribery was like a hot potato in his hands...


    Should he report it?


    It was a difficult question to answer.


    He did not want to think of the answer now. He would leave it for ater time.


    Suddenly, Jack thought of the oldmercial area in downtown A City." How''s the urban


    reconstruction projecting along, Luke?" He asked.


    Luke was dressed in ck casual clothes. His imposing aura was hidden.


    His answer to Jack was calm and collected. "T Corporation has signed an agreement with Vivi Group,


    and construction will start next week. With the coboration of the two major corporations, I believe that


    the oldmercial area will soon have a new look." "01'' Crawford is lucky to have you. Zachary was a


    yboy, and 01'' Crawford nearly disowned him..." Old Mr. Norman said emotionally, "I didn''t expect


    that Zachary''s son is so capable. Luke, I''d like you to be my grandson-iw, if not that you already


    have a girlfriend."


    Luke''s gaze turned gentle when he looked at Bianca. His voice was low and resonant but filled with


    determination. "Thank you for your favor, Old Mr. Norman, but I already have a woman I love. I will not


    marry any woman other than Bianca. We will be married on the 1st of May."


    He did not speak too loudly, but everyone in the yard heard his voice. Everyone instantly fell silent.


    Their reactions were different.


    Old Mr. Norman was disappointed. Old Mrs. Norman was frustrated. Jack was shocked. Queenie was


    helpless. Bianca was dumbfounded...


    ''Huh? We''re getting married on the 1 st of May? Why didn''t I know about it?''


    Leia felt as though her heart had been branded by an iron. They were about to get married on the 1st


    of May? Why was it so fast?


    When she looked at Bianca once more, hatred and destruction filled her gaze!Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
