Chapter 1189 Your Insolence Will Be Your Downfall
Luca smirked when Mo told her that someone was waiting for her in the guest lounge. Even if Mo didnot tell her who it was, she could guess the identity of that person.
She sauntered over to the guest lounge, opened the door, and saw Bianca sitting elegantly but slightlystiffly on the couch.
Luca closed the door and sat down opposite her. "You're looking for me?" "You don't say?" Biancarolled her eyes. She felt an instant disgust when she looked at Luca's facial features; no wonder Lukewould fall for her bewitching charm.
According to the report she was provided, Luke preferred pure-looking faces. She was doubting theaccuracy of the report now.
"I'm busy at work. If you have anything to say, make it short." Luca said brusquely and crossed herlegs.
Now that they knew each other's identities, there was no need for courtesy. After all, both of them wereAbel's minions.
"You already know who I am." Bianca glared at Luca as though she was in control of everything. Shewanted to look apologetic, but she found that she could not keep calm at all.
"Abel told me before I left the island." Luca picked up a cookie from the plate on the coffee table.
"What is your mission?" Bianca clenched her fists.
Luca took a small nibble. She heard that Bianca had taken lessons on etiquette just so that she couldbe more like her and be a match for Luke.
Despite the lessons, Luca could see that she was still rough at the edges.
Bianca's hatred toward Luca grew when she saw Luca’s relaxed demeanor. She knew that she wouldhave to eliminate her from the picture. Otherwise, Luke would easily fall for her.
"There are no other men here. You can drop your pretense now,"' Bianca mocked her actions.
Luca smiled. "Even if there's no one else here, I can’t tell you my mission. That's a rule of the Island.Have you forgotten?"
Bianca was stunned, and her breathing became heavier.
Luca shook her head and said, "You've been gone from the Island for too long, and you've forgotten therules. Didn't Abel give you a refresher yesterday?" "Your insolence toward the Boss will eventuallycome back and bite you." Bianca clenched her fists tightly. She was overcome with anger when sheheard Luca mention yesterday's punishment. The veins on her forehead bulged, and she forgot herobjective to meeting Luca.
"I've always treated him like this, and the reason is simple: I'm irreplaceable, and you’re not." Lucawiped her hands on a paper napkin after finishing the cookie. "If you anger him, he can easilysubstitute you with someone else. He'll just have to say that you met with another accident, and yourvoice changed again."
Bianca stood up in anger, forgetting about the wounds on her back. She grimaced in pain.
Luca stood up as well. "Calm down. The whipping wounds won't heal that quickly." "You!" Biancawanted to raise her hand and slap Luca, but that would stretch the wounds. She could only put herhand down sheepishly.
"Even though you've left the Island, don't forget your mission. If you think of standing in my way again,you should think carefully if you can bear the consequences." Luca took out a vial of powder from herpocket. "Abel asked me to give you this."
Luca received a call from Abel earlier that morning to concoct some medicine for the impostor Bianca.He was worried that Luke might suspect something if Bianca's wounds did not heal.
Luca was reluctant to do so, but she had to comply because Nyla was in his hands.
"Is that poison?" Bianca did not think that Luca would want to help her.
"Apply it to your wounds once in the morning and once at night. If you're worried that I might poisonyou, you don't have to apply it, though you'd better pray that Luke doesn't notice you grimacing all thetime." Luca walked toward the door. When she was about to open it, she turned around abruptly andsaid, "Oh, right, don't tell me that you're here today just to lose your temper on me. I don't expect you toapologize to me anyway. You'll just have to perform your role, and make sure that you stay away fromme."
She knew that she would not be able to coexist peacefully with the impostor Bianca, so she wouldrather keep a distance from her.
Luca composed herself and walked out of the lounge. She saw Mo standing not far away and noddedat her as a greeting.
Despite the incident giving her a lot of unwanted trouble, Luca could not be bothered to get back atBianca. One positive thing that she found from the incident was that the impostor Bianca had feelingsfor Luke.
Those feelings would not die that easily, and Luca knew that the impostor Bianca would hesitate if Abelordered her to do something that would harm Luke.
Bianca held the vial of medicine tightly in her hand.
Who could that woman be? Why did she say that she was irreplaceable?
Bianca suddenly felt a sense of inferiority that nearly overwhelmed her.
She soon composed herself. She was not going to let that woman intimidate her.novelbin
She stuffed the vial into her handbag and stepped out of the guest lounge with deliberate elegance.
Her expression was calm, though she was holding back the pain from the wounds on her back.
Mo quickly stepped up to her. "Mrs. Crawford, is everything alright?"
Despite the reporter's announcement, Mo did not believe that there was nothing between Luca andtheir CEO.
Mo was prepared to gloat over the ensuing drama when she saw Mrs.
Crawford walk into the office. However, the scene was relatively calm, and
Luca did not seem too perturbed when she walked out of the guest lounge.
That made her feel slightly disappointed.
Bianca shot a glance at Mo and could tell that she was a nosy one. She nodded and said, "Yes, it wentwell. Can you do me a favor?" "Of course." Mo did not want to let go of any opportunity to get in Mrs.Crawford's good graces.
"Let everyone in the company know that I've come here to talk to Dr. Craw.
Also, try to let Mr. Doyle know about it too," Bianca said.
She wanted to give Luke the impression that she had apologized to Luca.
Even though she did not apologize, her presence in the company was convincing enough.
"Alright, no problem," Mo said. She guessed that Bianca wanted Luke to know how aggrieved she was.
It was not a difficult task. Jason was in the Watson employees' group chat, so all she had to do wascasually mention it during lunchtime.
"Mm. This is my name card. Let's have coffee together some time." Bianca handed Mo the name cardand planned to make the young employee her pawn in Watson Biopharmaceuticals.
