Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 498

Chapter 498 Could It Be Bianca Rayne?

Bianca had met Percy several times, but she did not have too many interactions with him.

Percy was an excessively beautiful but sinister man. He could inspire fear even when he was smiling.

She had heard that Percy was the master of A City's criminal underworld.

Naturally, a man like him would be inhumanly cruel.

She still could not understand how Nina could have crossed Percy on her way to buy food.

Feeling extremely uneasy, she decided to give Luke a call.

Her legs were broken, and she could not go there herself.

Percy was a good friend of Luke, and Bianca thought that Luke should be able to reason with him. There was no other way than to trouble Luke.

Bianca called Luke and told him about the situation. Luke gave his promise that he would ensure that Nina would be safe.

Bianca could hearthat Luke was in a crowded place. Occasionally, she could hear music.

"What are you doing now, Luke? Why is it so noisy over there?" Bianca could not contain her curiosity.

Luke was standing at the most secluded corner of the hall, but music could be heard over the phone anyway. "I'm at a party now. I'll call Percy soon and get him to release Nina. I'll immediately cback to you after the party." "Alright. Don't drink too much,” Bianca said gently.

"Mm, I know. Rest well. I'll bring you and the children to a vacation after you've recovered." Luke's cold expression becgentle when he was talking to Bianca.

Not far away, Leia noticed his loving expression. Jealousy and suspicion erupted like a volcano.

Leia sneaked closer to Luke. She deliberately hugged his elbow and said loudly, "I've been looking for you, Luke. Dad and Mom want us to go over there. The banquet is starting soon. Everyone is waiting for us!"

Through the phone, Bianca could clearly hear Leia's words.

As she gripped her phone, she could feel pain in her heart, as though it was being pierced by countless needles.

She knew that Luke was only putting on an act, but she could not help but feel uneasy.

Trying to contain her sorrow, Bianca said to Luke gently, "You should join the banquet, Luke. Come back soon. I'll wait for you."

Before Luke could give a response, Bianca instantly hung up.

Luke's expression instantly darkened when Bianca hung up on him.

His gaze was filled with violence as he looked at the deliberately innocent Leia.

Leia's heart thumped hard.

Luke had seemingly morphed into a beast with its fangs bared that could tear her into pieces in an instant. Subconsciously, she began to shiver.

"What's wrong, Luke? Why are you looking atwith that scary gaze..." Leia bit her lip and said coyly as she hugged his elbow.

She did not expect the man to look so scary only because she had interrupted his call.

She was sure that he had been talking to a woman. More than that, it was a woman he cared for.

'Could it be Bianca Rayne?

'Is she still alive?'

When Leia arrived at that thought, all color drained from her face, and the smile on her face stiffened.

The destructive rage lingered on Luke's handsface for a split second. After that, he resumed his usual elegance.

He discreetly distanced himself from Leia and said coldly, "My employee got into trouble with the CEO of Mallory Corporation, and I'll have to handle it now. I'm sorry, Ms. Norman, I don't think I can stay at the party anymore. I'll go and tell Old Mr. and Mrs. Norman. I hope that you can forgive me."

Leia was exasperated. Her woman's intuition told her that there was more behind it.

If an employee of his company got into trouble, his assistant or anyone in higher management should be able to settle it.

Why would the CEO have to go there personally?

Even though she was dissatisfied, she forced a modest smile on her face." If you're busy, then you should go. Grandpa and Grandma should empathize with you. It's just that I've prepared a special segment later in the party, and I wish that you could've joined me..." "We have a long way to go ahead of us, Ms. Norman. I'm sure I'll have the chance to witness your talents in the future. Now, please excuse me," Luke said diplomatically.

After Luke said goodbye to Old Mr. and Mrs. Norman, Leia held his elbow and sent him out of the hall.

On their way out, everyone looked at Leia enviously. That had made Leia feel superior, not only because of her social status as the daughter of an influential politician, but also because she was together with the extraordinarily outstanding man.

Luke wanted to shove away the woman who had clung to him tenaciously like a fly.

He thought about the number of times he had to shower so that he could wash away the cloying scent of perfon his body.

However, he could sense that Queenie was looking at his interactions with Leia, so he did not act rashly.

He could tell that Jack's wife might seem gentle and frail, but she had a discerning eye.

All he could do was to straighten his back and let Leia walk him out while being showered with envious gazes.

After sending Luke off, Leia returned to the banquet hall dejectedly. Suddenly, her phone rang. It was an unknown local number.

She rejected the call without thinking, but the number kept on calling.

Leia had no choice but to answer it.

A cold and hoarse male voice could be heard. "Ms. Norman, I've crashed into that woman, just as you instructed. Why haven't you transferred the balance to me? Should I expose you?"

Leia's back stiffened when she heard that threat.

She lifted her dress, ran hurriedly into the washroom, and locked the door as fast as she could. "Isn't that woman still alive? Is that all you can do? How useless!" "Ms. Norman, I'm only in charge of

crashing into her, and it's none of my business whether she lives or dies. Of course, it was a serious crash. Even if the woman isn't dead, she'd at least be crippled. I've already done what you asked, and you should hold up your end of the promise and givethe rest of the money. Otherwise, I don't mind taking you down with me! I'd like to see if you can maintain your reputation as the darling of the Norman family! I want the rest of the money in two hours, or else!"

After delivering that threat, the man ended the call.

Leia flung her phone to the wall, and it shattered into pieces. Her expression was as vicious as a demon.

'Bianca isn't dead, and that man dares to ask for money?

'That woman is too lucky. She needs to be dead!'
