Chapter 759
Chapter 759 He Wants to Go and Hug Her but Dares Not
In the morning, when the first rays of light appeared on the horizon, Jason came to the VIP wardcarrying a stack of documents and several sets of new clothes.
He turned a corridor and saw Luke sitting on a bench outside of the ward.
Next to the bench was a mound of cigarette butts and ash.
Jason was shocked. "Did you sit here the entire night, Boss? Didn't you rest?"
The VIP ward had a fully-furnished lounge for the patient's family to rest, so why was Mr. Crawfordsitting outside, and why was he in such terrible shape?
He had a beard stubble on his chin, which made him look haggard and dispirited.
Jason could not understand why his boss's gaze was gloomy, as though a storm was approaching.
Luke shot a glance at Jason, and his well-built body trembled slightly. He took the documents andclothes from him and asked, "Any news about Wayne yet?"
They had prepared for that night for a long time. They gathered evidence of Wayne's crimes andpresented them at the banquet: Smuggling firearms, dealing drugs, trafficking people, lending illegally,selling state secrets, grooming assassins...
Any one of those crimes was enough to ruin the reputation of the Blatt family.
It was proven that Wayne had his fingers in every illegal money-making scheme.
The police and the special forces appeared at the banquet to make an arrest. Old Master Blatt passedout from anger, and every attendee received a huge shock.
Unfortunately, Wayne managed to get away!
Luke did not believe that Wayne's two elder brothers did not help him.
Jason paused for a while and sighed as he looked at Luke. "There's no news about Wayne yet, buthe's not going to escape. The police have controlled all entry and exit points of A City, while Mr. Malloryis also helping us with his influence. We have people helping us from both sides."
Luke gently closed his eyes. "I don't like wasting time." "I know, Boss. I will contact you the first momentI receive any news about Wayne." Jason understood what he meant.
The longer they took, the higher the chances that Wayne escaped.
"Keep an eye on Victor and Vincent. Wayne's two elder brothers must be harboring him if he dares tocommit so many crimes. They should still be in contact with Wayne, so monitor their whereaboutsclosely." "Yes, Boss."
Jason wanted to continue speaking, but the door to the VIP ward opened.
His gaze inadvertently fell on Bianca on the bed. He was surprised to see that her face that was usuallyfull of color was deathly pale.
'Ms. Rayne has always seemed fine. What happened to her?'
He stole a glance at his boss. Luke's gaze was filled with pity and care for a brief moment but soonresumed his usual coldness.
Luke might seem calm on the surface, but his emotions were turbulent. Bianca's face was paler thanher white hospital clothes, which made his heart wrench with an inexplicable pain.
No one was sadder than him as he watched her lie there lifelessly like a glass doll.
Bianca might not be an extrovert, but she usually smiled and chattered whenever she was around him.She had so many things to tell him, but right now, she was lying there...
Luke wanted to go into the room to hug and kiss her, but he dared not do so.
The nurse came out of the ward.
Luke stood up immediately and stepped up. "How is her condition?"
The nurse could not help but be smitten by Luke's handsome face, even though she knew that he wasalready married. She even forgave him for chain-smoking in the hospital.
"Mr. Crawford, Mrs. Crawford is recovering well. Fortunately, she was sent to the hospital in time, andshe did not lose too much blood. She can be discharged soon, but she should refrain from being overlyagitated in case the same situation occurs again." "Mm, thank you."
Luke felt a lot more relieved when he heard that. As long as Bianca was fine, she could punish himhowever she wanted!
"I'll go in and take a look." Luke took a step toward the ward.
However, he remembered what the nurse said earlier. She said that the patient should avoid beingoverly agitated, and he froze on the spot.
He clenched his fists and told Jason, "Never mind. Fetch my wife home later, Mr. Doyle. I'll be going tothe company."
Then, Luke trudged away without looking back.novelbin
Jason looked at how dejected his boss was, then at Bianca in the ward. He shook his head slightly.
That couple used to be so loving to each other, even in front of other people. They had rarely argued ifever, so why did they seem to be in conflict?
Was hell freezing over?
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and Bianca had recovered.
However, she was still giving Luke the silent treatment.
They pretended to be loving in front of the children, but it was a different scene when they were alonein their bedroom.
Luke tried to apologize to her multiple times, but she remained stubborn and resisted his physicalintimacy.
Luke knew that he could not convince her whenever she had set her mind on something. He moved tothe company on the pretense that he was busy with work.
Bianca decided to leave T Corporation.
Bridget, her senior, had planted the seed of that idea. The idea had taken root, and after thinking aboutit for some time, it had grown into a towering tree.
Women had to be self-reliant. Bianca had always believed in that.
She had devoted herself to Luke, but Luke had reciprocated her love with deception. Not only was shedeeply hurt, but that also made her realize that it was even more important that she became self-reliant.
Bianca contacted Sue and Nina.
They met in a high-class cafe, and Bianca told them her idea of setting up her own company.
Nina seemed cheerful and outgoing, as though she had walked out of the trauma from a few years ago.
Her face was a healthy color, and she seemed to have gained some weight.
Meanwhile, Sue seemed more feminine after she had become a mother.
Her hair was permed into a seductive big wave, and she wore trendy clothes.
Bianca did not expect that her friends would agree to her plan straight away
