Chapter 1016 He Only Wanted to See Her "You..." Allison''s face changed several shades of red


    because of her anger. She red at her son, and the signs of old age appeared on her face.


    Deep wrinkles appeared on her face, and she seemed to have aged several decades instantly.


    That shocked Bianca. It was the second time she had seen Allison''s skin change so drastically, but


    Allison seemed oblivious to it.


    Luke was Allison''s son, but ever since he reunited with Bianca, he did not ensure that her whims were


    satisfied, and sometimes he had even sided with Bianca to bully her.


    Allison felt more and more like an outsider and a burden, and her hatred toward Bianca grew.


    She thought that it was the wrong decision to leave her with Kevin Rayne. She should have tossed the


    baby Bianca into the sea! That would have saved her a lot of trouble in the future.


    The atmosphere in the office was tense. Neither the mother nor the son was willing to back down.


    However, Luke was a moreposed person than Allison, and Allison found herself increasingly


    flustered.


    He did not close the door after he entered the office, and Sue had been pacing outside to see what was


    going on inside. They said that one should not air their dirtyundry in public, but everyone in the


    company had already found out that Luke Crawford was not on good terms with his mother.


    Bianca was getting worried that the situation might continue to escte. She held Luke''s hand gently


    and tried to defuse the situation. "Did youe here for something, Luke?"


    She tried to change the topic to stop the fight from continuing.


    Luke looked away from Allison and handed Bianca an envelope.


    That was when Bianca noticed that Luke had been holding an envelope all this while. She opened it


    and saw the invitation letter to the T Corporation annual shareholders'' meeting.


    Allison could tell that it was an invitation letter too.


    He could have given it to Bianca while they were at home, but he had deliberatelye over to


    Bianca''s office to deliver it. Did he not have a lot of work? What was the meaning of this?


    Allison became angrier when she thought of that. Not caring that people were gossiping outside, she


    continued to reprimand Luke, "You''ve been bewitched by that woman, Luke. You disappoint me!"


    Then, she stormed out of the office.


    Her high heelsnded heavily on the floor as though she wanted to leave holes.


    Sue was shocked by Allison''s gloomy demeanor. It was scary to see that the noble woman seemed to


    age by decades in an instant.


    After Allison left, Bianca sighed. "Luke..."


    She did not say what she wanted to say. After all, the problem was between the mother and son, and


    she could offer no solution.


    Luke gently caressed her cheeks and closed the door.


    Tm here because I miss you," he said. Jason had delivered the invitation letters ready to be sent out to


    Luke''s office earlier.


    When Luke saw the name "Bianca Rayne," he instantly put aside his work on hand and drove over just


    to see her.


    Bianca was moved. She hugged him tightly. "I''m so d that you''re here, Luke."


    Luke would always appear whenever she was in trouble. It was the same this time.


    Luke carefully inspected Bianca''s face for any signs of injury. "Did she hurt you?" He asked.


    "No." Bianca shook her head. He had arrived just when Allison wanted to p her.


    "Why do you think your mother is so against Gordan investigating the incident?" She asked.


    Luke''s gaze turned gloomy. He already had his doubts, and those doubts intensified when he saw his


    mother acting so strangely.


    Why was she against Gordan investigating the incident? It was because Gordan was very capable.


    "Are you suspecting that she''s behind this?" Bianca felt a little uneasy when she saw him like that.


    They were husband and wife, and they could usually tell what each other was thinking. However,


    Bianca was not willing to suspect Allison''s involvement.


    Luke was not willing to suspect his own mother too. However, her behavior was too suspicious.


    He held Bianca''s hand and kissed it. "Let''s not be bothered about it.


    Gordan will handle it."


    Bianca nodded. Even though he said so, her unease only grew.


    If Allison was indeed behind the incident, how would Luke be able to face Louis?


    "I''ll be going off. Let''s eat at the Westin tonight. I''ve already reserved a private room." Seeing Bianca''s


    worries, Luke massaged her.


    "Alright. You''ve been very busy, so let me bring the children over," Bianca said.


    Luke gazed at her gently. He would not want to leave if he was not so busy.


    Bianca watched Luke leave the office. She thought that he would be going to look for Gordan.


    Allison might be his birth mother, but they were not on good terms with each other. Things would be a


    lot moreplicated if Allison was truly involved in the break-in.


    "Sigh," Bianca sighed.


    Sue came into the office and asked her out of concern, "Are you okay,


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    Bianca? Just now..."


    She paused. Even when the door was closed, she could clearly hear the conversation inside the office.


    She was quite shocked to find out that the seemingly noble Allison was such a shrew.


    "It''s nothing, Sue. Let''s get back to work." Bianca forced a smile on her face, though she could not hide


    her worry.


    Sue was not going to pry into Bianca''s family matters. Sheforted herself by thinking that she was


    lucky that she did not have inws, put the cup of coffee on the table, and left the office while closing


    the door behind her.


    Bianca sat in her chair, staring at theputer screen in a daze.


    She remembered that in the security footage, Allison had appeared in the living room before and after


    the incident.


    The technicians of the securitypany had conjectured that the signal jammer was installed on the


    first floor. Come to think of it, Allison could have been the one who installed and removed the signal


    jammer.


    Bianca shook her head when she thought about that, trying to banish that thought.


    Even so, she could not stop the seed of suspicion from taking root.


    After work, Bianca brought the children to the Westin Hotel and met Jack and Queenie there.


    "Dad, Mom! What a coincidence," she greeted her parents.


    "Good evening, Grandpa, Grandma," the three children greeted them too.


    "Good evening." Queenie''s gaze turned gentle when she saw her precious grandchildren. "I haven''t


    seen you for a long time. Come and let me take a good look at you."


    The three children came near to her. "Grandpa, Grandma, I''ve grown taller recently," Tommy said.


    Jack patted his head and picked him up. ‘Yes, my precious Tommy has grown taller."


    Bianca could see that her parents were a lot happier when the children were around and thought that


    she would bring the children to visit them more often. "Are you here for dinner too?" She asked.


    "Yes. Your mother said that she misses the French cuisine here, so I brought her here," Jack said as he


    cast a loving gaze at his wife.
