Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle
Chapter 699 Bianca, It’s Me

"Where do you think you're looking?" The man behind Anand spoke hoarsely, and his grip on Anand became tighter.

Anand dared not look around, but he saw that the man had rolled up the sleeve of the arm that was pinning him. Terrifying scars crisscrossed the muscular arm

Anand suddenly remembered that Bianca's husband had been missing for two years. When he wanted to visit Bianca, she had rejected him, and he did not pursue the matter further.

Where had Luke Crawford been in the past two years? What had he been through?

No one would know.

From what Anand could see, he could tell that Luke had been suffering.

Otherwise, the wealthy and noble Luke would not have so many scars.

Suddenly, a servant knocked on the cabin door. "Mr. Anand, were you quarreling with Ms. Shanna earlier? Madam wants you to meet her in the front hall...”

Anand could feel something hard and tubular press into his waist.

"Listen to me if you want to live. Tell her that you're occupied now." Luke's tone of voice remained as icy as ever.

Anand smiled but did what Luke said anyway. "Yes, I know. Please tell my mother that I'll change my clothes before going over.”

"Yes, Mr. Anand.”

The servant did not sense anything suspicious and left.

Luke was pleased that the hostage was willing to cooperate. That saved him a lot of trouble. Before he could ask his hostage about where the cruise ship was heading, Anand suddenly turned around and said with a smile. "Long time no see, Mr. Crawford. Do you still remember me?"

Luke's icy demeanor cracked when he saw Anand's face. "It's you!"

He knew who that man was.

Back in A City, Anand had tried to court Bianca. When Luke found out about it, he threatened the man to stay away and even contacted the Mahachitra family in India to take Anand away from A City.

Anand had always thought that his father was behind the decision of summoning him back to inherit the family business.

He never knew that Luke was behind all that.

Luke had held Anand hostage in an emergency. He did not see the man's face clearly.

Now that he realized who the hostage was, he put his gun down but remained alert. "I'm sorry, Mr. Anand, please pardon my intrusion, but there is a good reason behind it. Where is the cruise ship heading? Can I come along? I'll be sure to repay your debt in the future.”

"Don't worry about it, Mr. Crawford. It's a big ship, and it could carry another person.”

Anand shrugged carelessly.

To him, Luke was undoubtedly an outstanding man. Otherwise, Bianca would not be so devoted to him.

Anand was a gentleman, and he had become more mature and reserved after two years. If he could not obtain the woman he loved, he did not mind protecting her from the shadows.

He took out two shot glasses from the cabinet, filled them with whisky, and handed Luke one. "Where have you been in the past two years, Mr. Crawford? Don't you know that Rayne nearly lost her mind looking for you?"

Luke's heart wrenched when Bianca's name was mentioned. He was obsessed with reuniting with her.

Considering his current situation, he spoke helplessly, "How is she?"

"You should be able to guess how she is now. When you first went missing, T Corporation nearly imploded. I wanted to help her, but she declined my offer. She single-handedly brought the company back on track. You should know how hard it is for someone without any business or management experience to do that. Moreover, she was pregnant with your baby while juggling company business, and she had to bear with the loss of her husband... I wonder how she managed all that."

Luke tried to hold back his feelings of guilt. He reached out his muscular arm toward Anand. "Can I borrow your phone?"

"What?" It took a while for Anand to process Luke's request.

He quickly took out his phone and handed it to Luke. "Here, use it."

"Thanks." Luke brusquely took the phone and dialed Bianca's phone number with a trembling finger.

He threw caution out of the window when he heard Anand's words. He was going crazy thinking about that woman.

Even if he could not meet her now, he would be satisfied listening to her voice.

Even if Robert could trace the call, he could only trace it back to the Mahachitras. Even the Indian government dared not cross that influential family, and Robert would stay away from them. Moscow.

Ray broke five of Gordan's ribs. Gordan had to be hospitalized, and Vivian attended to him in the hospital.

Bianca went to visit. On the other hand, Selena hated that man, and she stayed at home to tend to Tommy.

Bianca tried to persuade Gordan in the hospital.

She did not know if Gordan would listen to her, but she had done all she could.

Gordan was amiable toward Bianca but was cold toward Vivian.

He seemed to keep a distance from Vivian, as though Vivian was the one at fault.

Bianca was helpless, but she believed that Gordan would eventually come to his senses and accept Vivian's love.

She felt very tired after dealing with Gordan and Vivian.

Back at her residence, Selena had already coaxed Tommy to sleep.

She briefly explained to Selena what happened at the hospital, to which Selena replied that the man deserved it. After chatting for a while more, Bianca went to the bathroom to brush her teeth

Her phone started ringing as soon as she stepped out of the bathroom. She had the urge to reject the call when she saw that it was from Anand.

She thought about it more carefully. Even though Anand had been a pest, he rarely contacted her after he went back to India. The man had stopped pestering her, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

After hesitating for a short while, Bianca answered the call. "Hello?"

She could only hear heavy breathing from the other end of the phone.

"Is there anything, Anand? If there's nothing, I'm going to hang up.” Bianca's voice was pleasant but distant.

The other end of the call remained silent, but the breathing sounded heavier.

Bianca was getting annoyed. She did not know what Anand wanted.

Just when she was about to hang up, the voice that came from the other end of the call shook her to her very core. "It's me, Bianca."
