Chapter 768 Try To Fail Her!


    Seeing that Bianca was about to cry, Luke reached behind her and gently massaged her back. "It''s


    already in the past. I didn''t want you to see my scars because I don''t want you to worry. It''s fine, the


    scars don''t hurt anymore... I would give up everything just to see you again."


    Hearing those words, Bianca suddenly hugged his neck tightly, and tears welled up in her eyes. "I''m


    sorry, I shouldn''t have given you the silent treatment, and I shouldn''t have suspected you. You''ve


    treated me so well, and maybe it''s because of that that I can''t bear any imperfections in our


    rtionship. I''m at fault too. Sorry.”


    Luke smiled gently and tousled her hair. "You don''t have to apologize to me, silly girl. I..."


    He did not finish his sentence because he felt a pair of soft and supple lips on his bare back.


    "Bea..." ''Does she know what she''s doing?'' "What are you doing?" Luke growled softly, "You''re ying


    with fire."


    Bianca gently held his shoulders and kissed every hideous scar on his back with the utmost devotion.


    The kisses were itchy. Luke could feel the fires of passion heating up in his body.


    If not that Bianca was feeling unwell, he would have turned around and pinned her under his body.


    Bianca''s lips touched Luke''s skin repeatedly, and her slender fingers massaged his scars. Luke could


    smell her feminine scent emanating from behind him. It was like a cat''s paw tickling every corner of his


    heart.


    Bianca bit her lip as she got off his back and fell into hisp. "I won''t give you the silent treatment from


    now on. If we have any disagreements, I''d rather argue and fight over them. It won''t be as torturous as


    not speaking to each other..."


    Luke nodded. "Alright, whatever you say. Let''s not give each other the silent treatment. Even if we


    argue, I''ll be the first to admit fault."


    When they were about to get intimate, Luke''s phone started to ring.


    He got off the bed and answered the call.


    The man was only dressed in a pair of ck briefs. Those naked muscle lines were very tantalizing.


    Bianca blushed. She turned her head away, grabbed a pillow, and peeked at her husband talking on


    the phone.


    He had an ambiguous smile on his face that exuded confidence. '' What do you propose, Mr. Francois?"


    Bianca could not hear what the other end of the phone was saying, but Luke was not paying his full


    attention to the call.


    There was a hint of brazen viciousness in his expression. "It''s true that you signed the contract with


    Bianca Rayne, my wife, but the two-year time limit is up, and you''ve onlypleted sixty percent of the


    project. I''ve given you a six-month extension, but the project hasn''t wrapped up yet. It''s taking too


    long..."

    Bianca became alert when she heard her name being mentioned. She paid closer attention to their


    conversation.


    At the same time, she tried to recall who that "Mr. Francois" who had signed a contract with her was.


    After all, she had signed countless contracts in the two years she was CEO of T Corporation. Other


    than the major ones involving huge amounts of money, she could not remember most of them.


    While she was deep in thought, Luke chuckled coldly and said, "That''s how I operate. I tend to stick to


    the promises I made. There''s only so much more time that I can give you... If it doesn''t work, then it


    looks like we''ll have to go the legal route."


    He noticed that Bianca was staring at him, as though she wanted to know the contents of the


    conversation. He beckoned at her with a finger.


    Bianca sat on hisp while wrapped up in the nket.


    Luke switched to the phone speakers, and Bianca could instantly hear the man on the other end of the


    call pleading nervously. "It''s not that I don''t want to keep to my word, Mr. Crawford, but my site has


    suffered two major idents in a year. The Environmental Protection Agency and the building


    inspectors have been very strict over thest two years, and we were issued the stop-work order for


    half a year for no reason... Ourpany has been facing financial difficulties, and I can''t even pay my


    workers. A lot of them have quit, and there''s nothing I can do about it... I hope that you can empathize


    with my situation..."


    The other end paused for a while before he continued, "How about this, Mr. Crawford, if you can let this


    slide, I''ll transfer one-third of the ownership of mypany to you once the project isplete. What


    do you think? My wife is already nine months pregnant, and she''ll be delivering anytime soon. I also


    have to spend a lot of money every month on my father-in-w''s cancer treatment. Can you make an


    exception, please?" "Huh," Luke replied nonchntly. He hugged Bianca tightly and started to pinch


    her while he spoke coldly, "Mr. Francois, I''m a businessman and not a phnthropist. If everyone is as


    untrustworthy as you, I''d be operating at a loss. There''s no negotiation. Mywyer will pay you a visit at


    your office tomorrow..."


    The man on the other side sounded like he was about to cry. "Mr.


    Crawford, I can guarantee that this''ll be thest extension I need. If I go back on my word again, it''s not


    toote to pursue legal action. My wife is about to give birth soon, and I don''t want to cause her to


    overthink. Half. I''ll give you half of mypany. Please give me another chance!"


    Luke smiled slyly like a fox. He pecked Bianca''s tender lips and pretended to sigh. "If that''s how it is,


    then I guess I can make an exception for you this time. There''s no next time. Since your wife is about


    to give birth, I''ll give you an extra extension of two months. Finish the project in eight months, or else!"


    "Thank you, Mr. Crawford. I''ll be off to work now. Let''s meet up fora drink another day..." The man


    sounded sheepish.


    After the call ended, Bianca looked at Luke in confusion. "What''s going on?"


    Luke hugged her, and they lied down on the bed. "It''s nothing that you have to worry about. I''ll tell you


    after your period ends. Rest well now, alright?"


    Bianca did not ask any further questions. She felt relieved as shey in his embrace.


    Mr. Crawford sat on his chair in the CEO''s office of T Corporation. A cigarette was quietly burning


    between his fingers.


    His gaze was slightly gloomy as he looked at the stack of interviewee profiles in front of him.


    Jason refilled Luke''s teacup. "Is there a problem with these interviewees, Boss?"


    As far as he knew, the boss never concerned himself about minor matters like those.


    Why did Luke ask Jason to bring him the interviewees'' profiles so early in the morning?


    Luke took a sheet of paper from the stack. He looked at the photo of the beautiful young woman


    attached to it. He stubbed out his cigarette and said coldly, "Try to fail this girl in the second round. I


    don''t want to see her in T Corporation."
