Chapter 823 That Delectable Man
Bianca finally fell asleep around midnight.
While on the plane, Luke had cleaned her in the airplane's bathroom, changed her into a set of comfortable pajamas, and
applied ointment on the bruises of her body.
Luke leaned on the headboard, holding a cigarette between his fingers.
He wanted to light it, but after realizing that Bianca was very sensitive to the stench, he put the cigarette away.
No one knew what he was thinking.
The soft light in the luxury cabin that landed on his body made him seem even taller, but at the same time, cast a lonely shadow.
He was angered greatly when Kassy yelled that Bianca had been violated, but other than anger, he could only feel tenderness
and pity for Bianca.
He would not mind if Bianca were really violated.
He loved her body, but he loved her soul even more.
If something had really happened to her, he would not blame her. Instead, he would blame himself for not protecting her.
He might be a clean freak, but he wanted to live a happy life with Bianca even if she were violated.
He also wished that he could personally execute every one of those men who had harmed Bianca.
Bianca seemed to be having a nightmare. Her face was as pale as paper, and she clutched the blanket tightly.
"Please, please don't harm my children. Please, Kassy, don't..." she mumbled in her sleep.
Luke sat next to her. He frowned as he looked at Bianca, who could not sleep calmly.
He reached out and brushed her cracked lips, and his expression became gloomier than ever.
He knew his position in Bianca's heart. The woman he loved was abducted in public view and was nearly violated. He had failed
her as her husband. It was all his fault.
If something had happened to her, he would not be able to forgive himself!
He gently kissed her again and tucked her into the blanket. Suddenly, he remembered Lanie, Rainie, and Tommy. He got a nurse
to take care of Bianca, then went to check on their beloved children. 1
The children remained sound asleep. Their similar faces looked so calm and peaceful under the soft light.
One would not have expected that they were still under the effect of the tranquilizer.
Johann came into the cabin with the analysis report in his hands. "Hey, you finally remembered your poor children! You haven't
even looked at them ever since they were kidnapped. Tsk tsk, how cruel! I've never seen a father as cruel as you. I might even
suspect that they're not your children if they don't look so similar to you."
Luke ignored Johann's mockery. Some warmth flickered in the man's icy gaze as he looked at his three cute babies. "How are
they? Do the drugs... have any lasting side effects?"
Johann fanned the analysis report in his hand and explained seriously," They injected the kids with a fairly new type of
tranquilizer. It's at least twice more potent as regular tranquilizers, but it doesn't have any harmful effects on the body. It seems
that the man named Blackhook had some sympathy for the kids. If he had injected the kids with some horrible drug or had
actually violated Sis, the consequences would have been fatal for him... I have to admit that he's pretty smart."
Luke's gaze turned ice-cold when he remembered the man's tanned face.
If that man had harmed his wife or children, he would have made sure that the man suffered a terrible fate!
Luke had found Bianca with a swollen face and tattered clothes. When he cleaned her in the bathroom, he did not see any signs
of violation by a man. He was truly relieved when he found that.
He would love Bianca just as much even if she were truly violated, but he could not help but hope that her body solely belonged
to him. Even more than that, he did not wish for her to live in guilt and shame.
Kassy, the mastermind behind the abduction, had already been dealt with.
He would have killed her out of anger if not that Bianca had convinced him to spare her life.
Of course, Kassy had already gotten what she deserved for harming Bianca. She was blinded and crippled, and she would not
pose a threat to his family anymore.
The next day, Bianca woke up to the sound of birds chirping.
She furrowed her brows as she opened her eyes, and she felt a warm towel on her forehead.
A pair of hands were gently wiping her face.
The first thing that she saw after she opened her eyes was Ivy, the young maid.
She cleared her throat and asked, "Ivy, where's Luke?"
Ivy grinned happily when she saw that Bianca was awake. "You're finally awake, Madam. Sir was very worried when he saw that
you didn’t wake up. He stayed up all night to keep watch, and he's in the bathroom cleaning up...
Bianca thought that it all had been a dream.
She felt a lot more awake after Ivy cleaned her face. That was when she remembered the nightmare that she had the night
before.
Bianca blinked. The tall trees outside had a trace of morning fog. She heard the sounds of the insects and the rustling sounds of
leaves as birds flew through the branches. Taking in the fresh air and looking at the familiar furnishings of her room, she realized
that she was truly home.
Bianca tried to push herself up, but she felt as though her bones had fallen apart. The pain caused her to gasp.
When she tried it again, a pair of warm hands held her firmly and helped her lean against the down pillow.
Bianca lifted her head, and her eyes met Luke's gentle gaze.
He was dressed in a white bathrobe that bared his bronze-colored chest. His fine hair still dripped with water, and his body
emanated the fragrance of shower cream.
The word "delectable” appeared in Bianca's mind. She gulped. What should she do if she really wanted to eat him up?
