Chapter 462 Her Presence In My Life Completes Me
Mavis could not bear to see her crush for ten years becoming someone else's husband.
She tried to calm herself down, though her tightly-clenched fists were slightly shaking. "Are you sure you want to marry an unremarkable employee, Mr. Crawford? You deserve a better woman. I think Ms. Rayne isn't experienced enough, no matter how you look at it..." "Oh? In your opinion, what type of woman should I deserve?" Luke's gaze turned cold.
Mavis, who was usually observant, did not notice Luke's displeasure because she was overly emotional.
She continued speaking, "Mr. Crawford, I think you should look for a woman who can be capable at work as well as being gentle in her personal life. If you can find an equally capable wife, then she could share your workload. You won't have to tire yourself like that."
Luke placed his pen down and looked at Mavis with his profound gaze." You're wrong, Ms. Laviere. I want a wife who can be my spiritual partner and not my work partner. I feel comfortable whenever I'm with Bianca, and that is a sensation I cannot get from other people. She is like a rib that God had taken from me, and now that she's back with me, she completes my life.
"You haven't found true love, Ms. Laviere, and that's why you are setting up conditions for your significant other. When you finally find him, you will understand that all your conditions mean nothing." "No, I've already met my true love! I met him ten years ago!" That was what Mavis wanted to scream at Luke.
However, she dared not do so. Her self-respect did not allow her to do that.
Mavis was dejected. "Sorry for disturbing, Mr. Crawford. I'll be back to my work." i "Mm." Luke continued working without lifting his head.
Mavis left the office gloomily.
Back at her office, she almost smashed everything on her table because of her anger!
Bella came in through the door with a cup of coffee. She knew that Mavis was unhappy because of Luke's engagement with Bianca.
"Have some coffee and calm down, Ms. Laviere."
Mavis flipped the cup over. Her gaze was chilling. "Do I look like I'm in the mood to drink coffee?"
The back of Bella's hand was scalded by the hot coffee, but she did not dare to complain. "There's no point in being flustered, Ms. Laviere. Actually, I hate that Bianca Rayne even more than you. That woman is a seductress who not only seduces the CEO but also flirts with the general manager. I don't know why Mr. Crawford likes her so much?"
Mavis frowned. "What? Bianca is flirting with the general manager?"
Bella continued to spin the story. "A lot of the employees in the design department saw it. Once when we were having lunch in the cafeteria, General Manager Crawford was sitting so close to her and asking her intimate questions. They were only one step away from kissing... Isn't that woman a seductress? It's not enough that she already has the CEO, but she also wants to flirt with her brother- in-law!"
Bella was unhappy when she thought of how caring Louis was to Bianca.
She knew that she was not qualified to court the CEO, so she wanted to go after Louis, the general manager.
However, Louis could not even be bothered to look at her. That was why Bella blamed Bianca for that.
If not for Bianca, why would the usually lecherous Louis Crawford not even look at her?
The hatred in Mavis's expression became stronger when she thought about how Luke only loved Bianca, who was flirting behind his back. "Why would Mr. Crawford even like a woman like that? Tell me, Ms. Sloan, don't you think that men think with their d*cks? What does Bianca have that I don't?" "I guess there must be something that you don't know, Ms. Laviere. Sometimes, men like women who might look prim and proper on the outside but behave otherwise in bed. Otherwise, how could she manage to deceive Mr. Crawford's judgment? Don't worry, women like her would eventually be dumped, and I don't think Bianca will be any different," Bella said disdainfully.
However, Mavis was indignant. "That's ridiculous. I'm sure Mr. Crawford should have seen his fair share of beautiful women, and as far as I know from working with him, he's not that kind of shallow person. He wouldn't marry a woman just because she could perform in bed. Bianca must have done something to him..."
Because of her love for Luke, she could not help but find excuses. She blamed Bianca for everything.
Seeing Mavis angry, Bella felt a chill down her spine.
However, she continued to persuade Mavis. "Don’t overthink, Ms. Laviere. So what if Bianca and Mr. Crawford are engaged? Even if they were married, you can still find a way to make them divorce. It should be a walk in the park for an intelligent woman like you to deal with Bianca!"
Mavis suddenly laughed.
Then, she resumed her usual composure. "Alright. You may leave. Get me another cup of coffee."
Bella answered sheepishly.
After Bella left, Mavis's smile became chillingly unnerving.
'Bella is right. They're only engaged. Why should I be so worried?
'As long as they don't marry, I have many ways to tear them apart!'
In the mansion.
Tomorrow was the day of the engagement ceremony, but Bianca felt nervous and uneasy.
The existence of the CD repeated the woman's threats in her mind.
Bianca was worn out from the mental torment.
The two children were playing word games on the couch. Rainie noticed that her mother was sighing and stopped playing with her brother, i
She hopped into her mother’s lap and carefully smoothened Bianca's furrowed brows with her tender hand. "What's wrong, Mommy? You'll be engaged to Daddy tomorrow. Why are you sighing?"
Bianca hugged her daughter tightly and took in her fragrance. "Mommy's fine. It's just that..."
The rest of the sentence was interrupted by the shrill ringing of her phone.
When Bianca saw that it was the unknown woman calling again, her petite face turned pale...
