Chapter 404 Luke and Bianca's Third Child!
Johann arrived, examined Luke, gave him a prescription, and fed him liquids. After that, Luke's highfever subsided a little.
Bianca breathed a sigh of relief.
She was busy the entire day. Earlier, they sent their children to the hospital. As they recovered, Lukefell sick. She had to take care of the big one as well as the little ones.
When she prepared the liquid medicine for Luke, she took a whiff of the pungent smell of medicine,which instantly caused intense discomfort in her stomach...
Bianca hastily ran to the bathroom and dry-heaved into the hand basin, but nothing came out of hermouth.
The nausea subsided a while later.
Bianca seemed to have realized something.
She remembered how Sue had dry-heaved in the washroom at the office, as well as her reactionswhen she was pregnant with the twins. She abruptly covered her mouth and tried to recall when wasthe last time her period came.
Her period should have been one week ago, but it had never come.
Luke had always been wearing protection when he made out in bed with Bianca, except for oneparticular night last month, when they were caught in the heat of passion, and Luke did not wear acondom. Bianca remembered that it should have been her safe period, and that was why she did nottake any morning-after pills either.
’Oh my god, did I strike the jackpot?’
She was plagued by a mess of emotions when she returned to the bedroom.
Luke had taken his medicine and was chatting with Johann while holding a thick financial report in hishands.
He noticed that Bianca's face was very pale.
When she came next to the bed, he brought her into his arms. "Thank you for your hard work today.Why do you look so pale? Have you overworked yourself too? Please examine her body, Johann."
Johann looked graceful and bookish like a gentleman. His eyes carried a natural seductive charm.
He whistled and smiled. "I say, Sis, what's wrong with your family? We're just a few days from the newyear, and the two little ones have tummyaches, Luke has a fever, and now you're not feeling well. Didyou forget to leave cookies and milk for Santa?" "Shut it!"
Luke shot a murderous glance at Johann, which immediately shut him up.
He instantly resumed his serious expression. "Please give me your wrist, Ms. Rayne, so that I can takeyour pulse..."
Bianca stretched out her delicate arm.
Johann placed two fingers on her wrist and sensed her pulse. Suddenly, his expression becameserious, and he furrowed his brows.
Bianca was already feeling nervous. She became even more apprehensive when she saw the changein his expression.
Her gaze met Johann's eyes. She was not sure how to feel when she looked at him.
"Am I sick, Mr. Stiles?" She asked nervously.
Johann wanted to pull her leg for a bit longer. He decided otherwise when he saw Luke's hawk-likeglare on him.
He lifted his hands as though surrendering. "I say, Bro, you don't have to look at me like you're going tomurder me! You're frightening me! Alright, there's nothing major with Sis. She's only pregnant..."
Thud!
The financial report fell from Luke’s hands and scattered all over the floor.
Luke hugged Bianca's waist tightly. His voice wavered as he spoke to Johann. "Did you say that Biancais pregnant?" "Yes, she's been pregnant for at least a month. Congratulations, there'll be a new additionto the Crawford household!" Johann smiled slyly as he glanced at the usually composed man.
Bianca was instantly flustered.
She and Luke had planned to have new children only after their marriage, and the sudden new life haddisrupted her plans. She felt as though a ball was bouncing against the walls of her heart. It was anuisance, but at the same time, she felt warm.
Luke took a deep breath. His lethargic body seemed to be infused with vitality.
His gaze flashed with a hint of ecstasy.
He hugged Bianca tightly, as though he wanted to fuse together with the woman he deeply loved.
He was not even that excited when Bianca was pregnant for the first time.
That time, Bianca's soul did not belong to him.
Back then, they were secretly in love with each other, but they had never interacted. Moreover, theirrelationship used to be strictly financial. He only knew that she had twins when she went for a check-upat the hospital.
He had feelings for her, but those feelings were not as strong.
Luke wanted to make sure that she had her title as Mrs. Crawford first. He planned for a baby only afterthe wedding.
He did not expect to have a third child that soon.
The pleasant surprise caused his intelligent brain to go haywire.
Suddenly, his expression changed abruptly when he realized that Bianca had been taking care of thethree people in the family for the whole day. She must be tired.
Luke carried Bianca onto the bed, lay her flat, and covered her with a down blanket.
He caressed her tender and fair face. "Please rest for now, Bianca. I... I didn't know that you'repregnant. If I had known about that, then I shouldn't have fallen sick. I'm sorry to cause you to worryabout me..." He was not making sense.
Bianca was dumbfounded.
'What is he saying? Does he think that falling sick is a choice?
'People say that pregnant women can often be irrational, but why does the man seem to be moreirrational than I am?'
She was not used to seeing Luke being overly cautious. "It's just pregnancy. There's nothing surprisingabout it. I'm fine, Luke. Lanie and Rainie should have woken up from their naps. I'll check them out in
their bedroom..." Bianca mumbled.
She wanted to get up from the bed, but Luke pinned her down.
"Be a good girl and rest!" Luke's expression sank.
The man could be intimidating when he was serious.novelbin
Even so, Bianca was secretly delighted that Luke cared for her health.
Johann, who was still single, clicked his tongue when he saw the way Luke showed his love for Bianca.
His good friend had never shown any interest in women, but now, he had become fiercely protective ofhis wife!
Johann winked knowingly at Bianca, which caused her face to blush...
'Now that Bianca is pregnant, I shouldn't let her suffer anymore. Looks like I'll have to bring forward thedate of the wedding!' Luke thought.
