Chapter 342 Calling His Name Again and Again
Bianca did not want to anger Luke by telling him about her encounter with Queenie, but she would feel uneasy if she did not.
It was not easy for her to be where she was now. She was afraid that she would lose this blissful scene.
After all, she was too unremarkable.
The other women who coveted the man came from powerful and influential families.
"Luke, I'll strive to become a world-renowned designer so that I can stand shoulder to shoulder with you. That way, there won't
be as many rumors and negative remarks even if we're together." Bianca whispered into his ear. Her warm breath had traces of
melancholy.
"I believe in your capabilities, and you should believe in yourself more. Success isn't achieved overnight, and there is much room
for you to grow. You'll have to take it slow, but I believe that my Bianca will one day stand on the pinnacle of the world, living the
life that you want... Perhaps even I might find it difficult to reach that height," Luke said as he carried Bianca
on her back and walked along the snowy ground. 1
The man's tread was firm even though the ground was slippery.
Their whispers were like the snow on the tips of branches, disappearing as soon as the sun rose.
However, those words were imprinted deep in Bianca's heart. She would remember his encouragement for years to come.
The pure white snow danced in the air like tiny fairies.
Several plum blossoms were in full bloom on the side of the road, unafraid of the terrible cold.
"Mrs. Norman came to look for me earlier."
Bianca's white down jacket seemed to have melded with her snowy surroundings. "She came to tell me to leave you. She said
that we're not a good match for each other..."
After thinking through it, she decided to tell Luke about that incident.
If they were going to trust each other, then she should not hide any secrets from him. i
The man was observant. If he found out that she was hiding something from him, she might regret that decision.
The smile on Luke's face froze, and his expression suddenly turned cold." Mrs. Norman said that to you?"
His expression was colder than the winter wind, which was made even more bitter in the dark night.
Bianca was behind him and did not see the change in his expression. "Mrs. Norman said that I'm not a good match for you. She
said that her daughter likes you, and the two of you are made for each other. Not only does your family oppose our relationship,
but even my love rival's family is interrogating me..."
Bianca laughed gently, but her heart was wrenching.
Luke turned around to look at her. His black irises flashed with confidence.
"Let me handle this."
Bianca ruffled his short hair with her icy fingers. "Let's ignore them. You should know that businessmen and politicians don't
mingle well."
Luke continued to walk forward. "You are the most important person to me. Don't worry. I'll protect you."
Tears welled in Bianca's eyes. "Luke..." "Yes, my dear..." "Luke..." "Yes, my dear..."
Bianca called Luke's name time after time.
Her worries disappeared as Luke answered her every call.
She rubbed his ears that were red from the cold to warm him up. "I trust you. You must be tired after carrying me for so long. You
can put me down...
Bianca turned around and looked behind her.
She could only see one set of footprints. Those footprints seemed slightly larger and deeper than usual, perhaps because the
man was carrying her on his back.
Those footprints were like the happiness they were experiencing. She could not see where they started, and she did not know
where they would end. However, she could clearly see their journey together thus far.
Bianca believed that if they did not let go of each other, they would create splendid vistas even in the most barren landscapes.
Under her insistence, Luke placed Bianca on the ground.
They stood side by side under a plum tree in full bloom.
Soon, they accumulated a thin layer of snow on their bodies.
A gust of wind blew past them, and several plum blossoms fell gently on them.
His handsome face was breath-taking, while her beautiful charms were awe -inspiring.
Luke looked at Bianca standing in front of him. Even though she did not move or speak a word, she was as gentle as the
moonlight and as delicate and dazzling as a snowflake. He was willing to do anything for her, even if it meant the entire world
opposed their relationship.
He suddenly reached into his coat and took out an exquisite pendant.
The pendant was in the shape of a flower petal, and it was made from the finest quality jade. However, its edges were slightly
worn because of its age.
Luke took Bianca's hand and placed the pendant in her palm.
Bianca looked at him, surprised.
The pendant in her hand was heavy and had an impeccable luster. She could tell that it was very expensive.
She was about to decline the expensive present when his palm enveloped her petite hand together with the pendant.
"This is my grandmother’s heirloom, Bianca. She told me that when I meet the girl I truly love, I should give it to her. My
grandmother is a gentle and loving woman, she..." i
Bianca looked at him and listened to his reminiscence.
That was the first time that she heard him speak of his maternal grandmother. She could tell that she was caring and intelligent,
but unfortunately, she suffered when she married a violent gambling addict.
Luke's grandmother gave birth to a boy and a girl. The daughter was arrogant and materialistic, while the son was down-to-earth
but meek.
His grandmother silently bore the constant abuse from her husband and the children, and her physical and mental health
worsened by the day.
After Allison gave birth to Luke, his grandmother poured all her love onto the cute and obedient grandson.
Unfortunately, when Luke was sent to the orphanage, his grandmother had already succumbed to illness.
Life with his grandmother might be tough, but those were the best days of Luke's childhood.
Bianca felt sorry about his past.
That outstanding man used to be so pitiful.
Bianca hugged his waist. "You have me and the children by your side. Your life will be filled with joy from now on. Let the past
stay in the past.”
Luke hugged her even more tightly.
With an understanding woman and their children as company, there was nothing else he could wish for...
