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 thatLuke 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 time someone hadverbally 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 goodcolleague and friend, she knew she should come over to accompany her.

However, when she found out that Bianca was not at home and was with the boss, she stayed back tohelp Jason.

"Let's go. Leave the matter to Mr. Doyle here."

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 upsome water 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 thatBianca 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 beforeremembering 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 layeringup. Bianca could not help but get worried about how Grandpa was doing. Was he bundled up? Was hecold?

When she kept thinking about it, the kitchen knife that was cutting the vegetables accidentally cut herleft index finger clumsily.

It took a long time before Bianca felt the pain.

Sue dug out toiletries from her bag and took them to the bathroom. When she passed by the kitchenentrance, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of Bianca's left hand that had blood in between herfingers.

"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 some gauze."

"How could you be so careless?!" Sue took the gauze that Bianca found. She immediately knelt on thecarpet 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 fornot having found Grandpa, but you can't keep being like this. Grandpa's getting old. We mortals willnever know what fate waits for the elderly in the end. Not just the fate of your grandpa, but everyone'sgrandparents or parents. As they grow older, all of us young people will eventually encounter the sameproblem 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 aboutGrandpa 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 home afterwe get off work."

Bianca nodded.

She could not leave work behind because Dad was still in the hospital with lung cancer. She had totake 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 come over to gossip, the head of the department's office dooropened and she called out to Sue. "Come in."

Sue did not have time to 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 projectthat 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 temptingbig cake.

The head of department nodded. "Alright, that's good. As for the handover, we'll wait for topmanagement 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 anymore 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 policeshowed 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 thatinvolves a female colleague in a private clubhouse. We're bringing you to the station, so cooperate withus 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 whichfemale colleague Jean had drugged.

Jean had a horrified look on his face. He was silent for a moment. He ruled out the possibility ofYvonne telling the police. Then, he looked at Bianca with hatred. He broke freenovelbin

from the police and walked toward Bianca.

When Bianca looked up to see him, there was no time to dodge before his handcuffed hands lifted upthe 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 theground. 1

His female colleague was shocked and looked at Bianca sympathetically. When she looked at Jeanwho was being taken away by the police, she said, "Is Jean crazy or is he having a manic episode?"

"Are you okay?" Sue came over 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 thattheir boss would take some time to 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 Sueas 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.
