Chapter 139 Crazy Or Having A Manic Episode?
Bianca entered the subway.
On the way from Luke's apartment to the subway station, she did not look back, but she knew that Luke was following her the entire way quietly. He was still worried about her.
The train moved, and after many stops, it finally arrived at her destination.
Bianca went down and walked toward the exit.
Her neighborhood.
Bianca saw the police and Jason.
She walked toward Jason. After Jason saw her, he stopped smoking and turned around to look at her. Initially, he thought that she was with Mr. Crawford.
"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Doyle. Go back and rest," Bianca said gratefully and sincerely.
Jason knew that his job was to do things for other people. However, it was the first tsomeone had verbally thanked him, so he could not help but be a little
embarrassed. "It's fine. If you want to thank someone, thank Mr. Crawford."
He would never forget to give credit to his boss.
Bea!" Sue got out of the car with a laptop in her hands.
Bianca raised her head and looked at Sue.
Jason also looked at Sue and ordered, "Go upstairs with Bianca."
Sue understood what Jason meant.
Since Bianca’s grandpa was missing, it was clear that she was anxious. Therefore, as Bianca's good colleague and friend, she knew she should cover to accompany her.
However, when she found out that Bianca was not at hand was with the boss, she stayed back to help Jason.

Sue called over to Bianca.
They went upstairs together.
Bianca opened the door, and her rented place was eerily quiet.
"Please, have a seat." After Bianca invited Sue to sit on the sofa, she went to the kitchen to heat up swater to drink.
Sue was very busy. She continued her work without lifting her head as she said, "Grandpa will be fine. Don’t work yourself up too hard by worrying about him until you start falling sick."
Bianca stared at the rocking chair on the balcony where Grandpa often sat.
After being morbidly lethargic for the entire day, her uncomfortable body made everything worse.
When Sue finished her work and went to look for Bianca after putting away her laptop, she found that Bianca was curled up on the bed like a wounded kitten. She looked very pitiful.
Sue decided to stay at her place for the night.
The next day, Bianca's period cramps were gone.
When she woke up and found that Sue had stayed over, Bianca went to the kitchen to make breakfast.
Sue woke up when she heard movements in the house and glanced at the strange environment before remembering that she had slept over at Bianca's house last night.
In the kitchen.
Bianca beat two eggs in a bowl. After she beat them well, she put them down.
She picked up the kitchen knife and cut the washed vegetables.
In that month, mornings were freezing. One could easily catch a cold if they went out without layering up. Bianca could not help but get worried about how Grandpa was doing. Was he bundled up? Was he cold?
When she kept thinking about it, the kitchen knife that was cutting the vegetables accidentally cut her left index finger clumsily.
It took a long tbefore Bianca felt the pain.
Sue dug out toiletries from her bag and took them to the bathroom. When she passed by the kitchen entrance, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of Bianca's left hand that had blood in between her fingers.
"What the heck happened?" Sue dropped the toiletries from her hand and rushed toward the kitchen. She pulled over Bianca's finger to look and shuddered when she saw the scarlet blood.
Bianca lowered her head and said without feeling anything," I'm going to look for sgauze."
"How could you be so careless?!" Sue took the gauze that Bianca found. She immediately knelt on the carpet in front of the sofa and bandaged Bianca up with her brows furrowed.
While Sue bandaged her finger, she murmured angrily, "I can understand that you're feeling terrible for not having found Grandpa, but you can't keep being like this. Grandpa's getting old. We mortals will never know what fate waits for the elderly in the end. Not just the fate of your grandpa, but everyone's grandparents or parents. As they grow older, all of us young people will eventually encounter the same problem and go through a sort of loss in our lives.”
Bianca nodded as warm liquid filled her eyes again.
Sue looked up at her and was afraid that she would cry. She said, "We can't do anything about Grandpa right now, so we should just leave it to the police. Maybe if you go to the
office with me, you might feel better after making yourself busy. Maybe Grandpa will be at hafter we get off work."
Bianca nodded.
She could not leave work behind because Dad was still in the hospital with lung cancer. She had to take care of him.
Early in the morning in T Corporation, everyone was in formal attire.
Sue and Bianca entered the elevator together and went to the design department.
"Why are the police here?" Sue saw two serious-looking police officers sitting in the reception area.
As soon as her colleague was about to cover to gossip, the head of the department's office door opened and she called out to Sue. "Cin."
Sue did not have tto hear the gossip and hurried over.
In the head of the department's office.
The female head of their department looked annoyed as she said to Sue, "Will it be okay if the project that Jean and his team is in charge of is passed to your team?"
When Sue heard that, she was overjoyed. "No problem. No problem at all."
That was a big project. Anyone in the design department would want to have a piece of the tempting big cake.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe head of department nodded. "Alright, that's good. As for the handover, we'll wait for top management to arrange it."
Sue wanted to ask what happened.
However, she could tell that her head of department was not in a good mood, so she did not ask any more questions.
After she left, Sue glanced at the reception desk. The police were still there.
Soon, Jean arrived at work.
The two police officers at the reception followed him. The moment Jean put down his laptop, the police showed their IDs and handcuffed Jean straight away.
All his colleagues were stunned!
Bianca also looked over.
They heard the police say, "We have proof to suspect that you're related to the drugging case that involves a female colleague in a private clubhouse. We're bringing you to the station, so cooperate with us for the investigation."
His colleagues were shocked when they heard that. 'The clubhouse? Drugging?’
Everyone wondered if it was related to their department gathering that night and wondered which female colleague Jean had drugged.
Jean had a horrified look on his face. He was silent for a moment. He ruled out the possibility of Yvonne telling the police. Then, he looked at Bianca with hatred. He broke free
from the police and walked toward Bianca.
When Bianca looked up to see him, there was no tto dodge before his handcuffed hands lifted up the folders on her table and smashed them on Bianca's face.
"Corporate with us!" The police immediately stepped forward to stop him and pressed him to the ground. 1
His female colleague was shocked and looked at Bianca sympathetically. When she looked at Jean who was being taken away by the police, she said, "Is Jean crazy or is he having a manic episode?"
"Are you okay?" Sue cover and patted Bianca's shoulder comfortingly.
When their head of department walked out and glanced at Bianca, she looked even more annoyed. "Sue, bring your team to the top floor. The boss wants a meeting."
Sue nodded and turned back to whisper to Bianca, "Come, let's go up for the meeting." She hoped that their boss would take stto comfort Bianca.
The comfort of her colleagues could not be compared to her boss'.
Most women would want their man's shoulders to lean on when they were at their lowest.
Bianca held the painful tears back. She took the relevant documents and her laptop to go up with Sue as well as the rest of her team. After that, she found a seat in the corner and sat down quietly.
"Mr. Crawford is here," someone said aloud.
