Chapter 489 That Crash Almost Claimed Two Lives. How Could It Be An Accident?
In the hospital.
After sending the twins home, Jason returned to the ward. He was shocked when he saw his boss'sgaze.
His boss had always maintained a noble and imposing demeanor. At the current moment, under thelamplight, his sculpted face looked sorrowful and haggard.
Jason was about to speak when his boss turned his hawk-like gaze at him." Find the perpetrator as fastas you can. He shall not be spared! Zander is already on the case. You should cooperate with him."
His voice was resonant and hoarse. Every utterance oozed with frightening coldness.
Jason nodded respectfully. “Yes, Boss. If this is an accident...” "It's not an accident!"
Jason could hear the anger in Luke's raised voice. "My intuition tells me that it's not an accident! Mywife and unborn child nearly died, and they are lying on this bed right now. How could it be anaccident?"
It was said that women's intuitions are very accurate; sometimes a man's intuition can be equallyaccurate too.
Jason was surprised. He did not know what to say when he saw that his boss was losing control of hisemotions.
Eventually, he replied, "On the way back to Crawford Manor, Master Lanie told me the plate and modelof the car that knocked the missus down. It won't be too easy if the plate is fake, but don't worry, Mr.Crawford, well do whatever it takes to catch the perpetrator.
"Mm.’ Luke's eyes were half-closed to hide the destructive violence within.
Whoever the perpetrator might be, they had almost claimed his woman's life. The perpetrator wouldhave to pay the price with their life.
Luke stayed up the entire night.
A nurse was stationed in the ICU ward around the clock. He did not have to stay there.
Even so, he wanted to accompany Bianca.
Next to Bianca's bed was a bed meant for the patient's family, but Luke insisted on sitting on Bianca'sbed, holding her hand for the entire night.
The morning sun shone through the window and onto Bianca's face.
She looked serene and gentle as she slept. She had not regained consciousness yet.
At about half-past eight, the nurse brought Bianca’s medicine.
She carefully propped Bianca up, leaned her against the pillow, and tried to feed Bianca some liquidmedicine from a bowl with a spoon.
The medicine was to prevent any complications from the operation. The unconscious Bianca could notswallow tablets, and so the nurse had to crush them into powder and mix it with water, 1
Luke, sitting on the bed, had an overbearing presence which made the nurse nervous.
Moreover, Bianca remained unconscious, and she could not swallow the medicine.novelbin
Most of the liquid that the nurse fed her dribbled from the corner of her mouth.
She also subconsciously pressed her lips together, stopping the spoon from entering her mouth.Perhaps the medicine was too bitter.
When Luke saw that, his expression sank, and his demeanor became colder.
The nurse became even more nervous when she saw that Luke was looking at her with an intimidatinggaze. With trembling hands, she picked up a wet towel and wiped the corners of Bianca's mouth.However, her nervousness from the man's intimidating gaze made her create a bigger mess.
Luke stood up impatiently, took the bowl from the nurse's hand, and shoved her aside. "Let me do it!""I'm... I'm sorry, Mr. Craw... Crawford... This is my responsibility. Let me feed Ms. Rayne..." The nursesaid tremblingly.
'Oh my god! The man's gaze is so frighteningly cold!'
There was no warmth in Luke's gaze, and it froze her very core.
"Get lost!" Luke did not show the nurse any mercy.
Goosebumps rose on the young nurse's skin.
Abandoning her post, she ran out of the ward without looking back.
After the nurse left, Luke turned to look at Bianca, and his icy gaze became gentle once more.
He hugged her delicate waist with one arm and held the bowl with the other. Bringing the bowl to hissexy lips, he took a sip of the liquid medicine and fed it into Bianca's mouth.
Just when he was almost done feeding her the medicine, Bianca, who had been unconscious,suddenly gave a reaction.
First, her fingers twitched slightly.
Luke had been paying attention to any movements from Bianca. His calloused fingers caressedBianca's cheek, and he whispered into her ear.
"Bea..."
The man's low and resonant voice was unbelievably warm.
The monitoring instruments next to the bed were beeping more loudly.
Bianca moaned softly. Her eyelashes fluttered. Then, she opened her eyes.
Her eyes seemed to be shrouded by a faint mist...
The usually reserved man became ecstatic when he saw Bianca open her eyes. "Bea. Bea?"
As he called out her name excitedly, he also pressed the call button next to the bed.
As she heard that familiar masculine voice call her name, she felt a splitting pain in her head, and hergaze was unfocused.
Everything was a blur when she first opened her eyes. Eventually, her vision returned to normal.
However, she could not endure the pain in her head. She wanted to lift her right hand to rub hertemples.
Before she could reach her head, a bigger hand blocked her hand. It was Luke. "Do you have aheadache? Let me massage it. You'll be fine soon."
Luke massaged her temples with an appropriate amount of strength, which lessened the pain andmade her a lot more comfortable.
She suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and she hurriedly rubbed her stomach with herhand. "Our baby, Luke. Did our baby survive?"
Bianca was not ready to hear Luke's answer. She could feel her stomach throbbing with pain.
Did they fail to save the baby?
She sunk into despair when she thought of that possibility!
Luke hugged Bianca in his arms and gently comforted her. "Don't worry.
Our baby is still in your womb. Don't be afraid."
Bianca looked at him with disbelief. "Are you telling the truth? Our baby is still alive? Are you lying?" "Iam telling the truth."
While they were talking, the hospital director and several nurses rushed into the ward.
The director heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Bianca was awake.
He considered himself lucky. If Bianca did not wake up, he was not sure how to handle Luke's wrath.
After performing a thorough examination, the hospital director realized that the operation had managedto save Bianca's legs and the baby in her womb. He became even more impressed by Johann;nowhere else had he seen such spectacular medical skills before!
