Chapter 206 Are You Drunk?
Bianca shook her head woodenly, indicating that she was OK. Worried that his sullen expression might frighten
the child, she hastily moved away from his arms and nodded at him as a sign of thanks.
Luke's arms were empty all of a sudden. He looked at Bianca, who was bringing his children away to play
somewhere else, with a mixture of care and blas resentment grew in his heart.
He was not happy about how coldly Bianca had responded to him earlier, even when he considered that she was
doing so because other people might see. He was also not happy about his excessive desire to claim her as his
own. How he wished that he could walk over, hug her in his arms, and announce to everyone that Bianca Rayne
was Luke Crawford's woman!
Not only that, the woman had given birth to children for him!
Not one, but two!
Bianca lowered her head, nodded at the town administrators’ feet as a greeting, then ran away with her head
lowered as though she was escaping. She was worried that the town administrators might misunderstand.
"How tender and loving, Boss Crawford! Why haven't | seen that side of yours whenever we have dinner?" A
middle-aged male town administrator laughed and joked when he saw that scene.
Luke's masculinity was uniquely attractive.
He looked mature and dependable, yet his physical features were striking. Not even many male celebrities
shared his charms.
With his sculpted and masculine features, especially that profound gaze, any woman would have fallen for him in
just one look.
Unfortunately, that almost-impeccable man had never shown any interest to any woman who had presented
themselves to him.
Everyone standing around that handsyet forbidding boss witnessed how he fixed his gaze on that

Bianca heard what the town administrator said as she ran away. She becmore fearful and ran away even
farther.
During the survey of the river, Bianca hid away from Luke in case someone else saw their interactions and
gossiped.
They did not have tfor lunch, and so they had an early dinner.
The boss and Jason had dinner arrangements with the town administrators, and they were absent at the
communal table.
According to one of the veteran colleagues, business dinners with administrators were merely a preliminary act
to something more important that happened after dinner.
There were many ways men could find entertainment, sof which were beyond normal imagination.
Everyone knew about the fact that the boss had hugged Bianca's waist while they were at the river.
Considering that Bianca was the boss's cousin's wife and that she was carrying the boss's son in her hands, it
was normal for him to help her steady herself.
They thought their boss to have a warm and considerate interior despite his cold and distant exterior, at least
toward his relatives. No one thought of anything further than that.
As they chatted, Joe decided to speak up for men." Don't keep on saying 'Oh, men are just like that.' What about
men? We're not born to be objects of your criticism!"
A female colleague chuckled derisively. "There's nothing wrong with you because you don't catch our attention
anyway."
Then, she turned to look at Bianca. "Bianca, you don't mind us gossiping about the boss, right?"
They were eager to gossip, but they had to be considerate about Bianca's feelings.
Bianca was a little cautious, though she said, "Go ahead. I'm not that... close to the boss anyway."
They believed it!
The female colleague leaned closer. "This happened sometlast year. A young movie star was caught on
camera going to one of those after-dinner activities, and she was hospitalized for a month after that. It was
rumored that the movie star had been sitting in the boss's lap. Of course, that was merely a rumor. No one had
photographic evidence of the movie star and the boss in the sframe."
‘How... horrific...
'l hope that it's only a wild rumor and not the truth."
After dusk, Bianca brought the two children that were playing in the courtyard back into the room.
Her colleagues asked whether the boss would be coming to pick up his children, but Bianca made up a n excuse.
Everyone was almost asleep by nine o'clock. They were getting used to the small- town peace and quiet a t
night.
Bianca was awoken by her phone.
She had turned it to silent mode in case it woke up the children.
She saw the number on the illuminated phone screen and got up. She hesitated
for a while before answering, "Hey, is there anything?"
"Why did it take so long? Open the door!" The man's resonant voice was heard over the phone.
She looked at the two sleeping
children and answered, "It's already
so late. How about you let them sleep here tonight, and you go back to A City by yourself?" She did Rot want to
wake the two children up, nor did she want to be separated from them.
She did not ask for too much. Spending one night with them would be enough.
Business dinners with administration usually involved alcohol and entertainment.
It was normal for the boss to forget about their children while conducting business.
With that excuse, she could spend another night with the two children.
She did not expect that he was sober after the alcohol.

Bianca looked at the two sleeping
children, then at the door. "Did you drink too much? Maybe let Jason bring you to an inn tonight, or maybe back
to A City? You shouldn't..." She spoke softly.
Nighttin the small town was extremely quiet, especially in that building.
If Luke went in and did something out of line under the influence of alcohol, she would not be able to find any
excuses in front of her colleagues.
"Why, are you afraid that | might want you? It's not like we've never done it before. Didn't you enjoy it?" Luke's
hoarse voice over the phone was especially seductive. "What nonsense are you talking about? Shh!" A warm
current coursed from Bianca's ear, onto her cheeks, then her neck. Her heart was thumping wildly. When one
went up the stairs, they would arrive at a small common area surrounded by multiple rooms.
Her colleagues were staying in the other rooms.
If they saw Luke standing in front of Bianca's room, they could reason that their boss was there to pick up his
children.
However, if someone had heard what he said, they would know that there was more to their relationship! How
would she survive in the company?
