Chapter 33 Not Good For A Man And Woman To Be Alone Together
Bianca looked at Nina. Her voice was barely a whisper when she asked, showing just how terrified she was right now. “Did I… do
anything irredeemable?
“Also, did I encounter any men?”
“I don’t know,” Nina said, conflicted. “I wasn’t there with you when you were drugged. The doctors only called me over after they
got the effects under control.”
Bianca caught the keywords.
The doctors got the effect under control.
That meant someone called the doctor for her.
Bianca let out a breath, holding her head in her hands as she thought back carefully. After a long time, she said, “I remember
there was a boy in the elevator. I think he said… he wanted to take me to the hospital?”
‘That should be it.”
Nina locked down that answer. “I was worried someone took advantage of you, so I even called the number again, but the one
who picked up was the doctor. She was a lady doctor, too!”
Nina’s reassurance finally put Bianca’s heart at ease.
“Do you have any water?”
“Yeah!” Nina hurriedly grabbed a glass of water and put it to Bianca’s lips.
After that, she reached for the fruits.
Nina offered Bianca the fruits.
Bianca looked down and looked at the huge banana in front of her. Her face instantly turned red…
Was it a side effect of the drug? For some reason, such an embarrassing image appeared in her head, of a man desperately
unbuckling his belt and pulling down his fly…
“I’ll pass.” Bianca pushed the banana away exasperatedly.
Nina immediately began peeling the fruit. “I’ll take it if you don’t want it. Gah, I’m starving.”
Bianca stared, slack-jawed, as Nina ate the banana. Those scenes appeared in her head again.
“Argh! Give me another glass of cold water!” i
Bianca thought she must be going mad.
What on earth was she thinking?!
Her mind was filled with filth…
Nina held the banana in her mouth as she poured Bianca a glass of cold water.
Bianca drained the whole thing, her mind finally feeling a little calmer.
“Someone called the cops. Both Marie Rayne and Charlotte Shaw were arrested, but I don’t know what the results of the
investigation are. Now that you’ve regained consciousness, I’m afraid the cops will be here to ask you some questions soon,”
Nina said.
‘They were arrested by the cops?”
Bianca would never have expected that.
People like Marie must definitely drug women on a nearly daily basis, and they usually would not leave any evidence behind.
Even if they did, the victim usually would not go to the police in a bid to save what remained of their dignity.
Bianca had even been wondering what she had to do to make sure Marie and Charlotte got their comeuppance.
“Do you wanna sleep for a while longer? You don’t look alright yet to me. Thank goodness you’re not a man, or you might have
cum yourself to death!” Nina was worried that Bianca might fall into depression, so she added a joke, narrowing her eyes
pervertedly. 2
Bianca, ”…”
Just then, there was the sound of someone walking toward them, followed by a familiar voice saying “thanks”. Since this was an
upper-class hospital room, their surroundings were relatively cleaner, and they could hear every little sound clearly.
“Is that Mr. Rayne?” Nina glanced at Bianca, who looked stunned. Even she could tell that the voice was Kevin Rayne’s.
Bianca wanted to get out of bed.
It had been so long since she last saw her father.
However, she had only taken a step away from her bed when she felt an odd sensation in her body.
“What’s the matter?” Nina helped support Bianca, asking in concern when she saw the latter stop.
Bianca did not say a word, feeling really awkward…
True, if she was a man, she might really have…
Well, there was no time to change into new underwear now.
Kevin Rayne had already pushed open the door and entered the room, followed by Jennifer Lee.
“Bianca, you’re awake.” Kevin looked instantly relieved when he saw that his daughter was awake and in her right mind.
Bianca suppressed the way her heart twisted when she saw her father, turning her gaze onto Jennifer instead. “Why didn’t the
cops arrest you too?!” There was no way Bianca would believe that Jennifer did not know about this!
Jennifer was ashamed, so she tugged at Kevin’s shirt.
Kevin sighed and walked over to Bianca. After he had his daughter sit down, he said carefully, “Bianca, don’t talk to your
stepmother like that. She’s still your elder, after all.”
Bianca’s heart sank in an instant.
Anyone who did not know better would think that Jennifer was his first and only wife, that Marie was his own daughter by flesh
and blood.
As for her? She must be adopted.
“I’m glad to see you’re fine.” Kevin’s face was covered in wrinkles, as was his frowning brow. He patted Bianca’s thin shoulders
and said with some difficulty, “Your stepmother spoiled Marie, that’s why she’s the way she is. Those other folks outside have
been influencing her badly too. She isn’t such a bad person at heart!”
Nina stood next to them, but she could not believe what Mr. Rayne was implying. 1
Bianca laughed coldly. “I trust that the police will do their job and punish those who deserve it. I’m not so powerful so as to
dictate what the police do.”
The moment Jennifer heard that, her face fell. “You’re perfectly fine right now, aren’t you? It’s not like you’re missing an arm or a
leg. Even if Marie did something wrong, you shouldn’t be so cruel. Are you trying to ruin
Marie’s life?”
Jennifer’s voice was choked with tears. “What do we do? Oh, Kevin…”
Bianca watched Jennifer’s little ‘counterattack’ unfold expressionlessly.
“We only have one life to live. Why should I bend over to clean her mess? Are you saying she deserves to be loved and
protected while I don’t?” With those words, Bianca grabbed a set of clothing hanging next to her hospital bed. “I need to take a
shower. If there’s nothing else, you can leave now.”
“What did I do to deserve this? I should never have married into this family and had such a disrespectful stepdaughter! I came to
you in all sincerity, yet this is how you treat me?!” Jennifer continued screaming her head off outside.
Bianca went into the bathroom and adjusted the temperature before she turned on the shower and stood underneath it.
The sound of the water drowned out the curses from outside.
Nina was peeling an apple as she gave Jennifer a few choice words, dripping with sarcasm. “Stop screaming like a banshee
here. Do you really think you’re in the right? If you keep yelling like that, you might just bust a blood vessel and drop dead on the
spot!”
Nina chased Jennifer out of the room.
Kevin followed behind her.
Before dinner, Nina’s parents called her away too. Bianca was in a very bad mood right now, but when she thought of it another
way, it seemed that her life was much freer now that she had thrown all caution to the winds.
At about six in the evening, her phone rang.
When she saw the caller ID, Bianca paused in the middle of changing. She still picked up in the end, though.
She did not say anything at first.
Luke’s deep voice came across the phone. “Are you alone in your room?”
“No… I’m not alone…”
For some reason, she had the feeling that Luke would drop by and visit her if she was alone.
She was probably just flattering herself, though.
“Is that so?” The man’s voice did not sound like it was coming through the phone at all, as though it was right next to her. He said
steadily, “If there are others with you, that would be perfect. I won’t come in if you’re alone. After all, it’s not good for a man and
woman to be alone together.”
The door was pushed open.
Bianca looked around in shock. A man in a suit and leather shoes was standing at the door, having just come in. 1
Meanwhile, she was not properly dressed yet. The two flower buds on her snow-white skin were dyed with a faint blossoming
pink, standing out particularly as her chest rose and fell with her breathing… 2
Did she just dig herself into a hole here?
