Chapter 465 Luke Went Down On One Knee and Looked At Her Lovingly
Bianca's body went limp after the kiss. She felt that her headache was becoming more intense.
Her eyes and ears took in the bustle of people moving about the hall, the swaying of flowers, thedancing fountains, and the melodic music.
The merriment in the hall was a stark contrast to her sorrow.
Bianca looked into the crowd.
She saw the stern Old Master Crawford smiling and talking to some guests.
Louis was overjoyed.
Susan was present. She did not smile, but she carried herself like a noblewoman.
Even Allison, who objected to their marriage the most, forced a smile on her face as she receivedthe congratulatory greetings for her son's marriage.
On another table, Old Master Rayne and Wanda were smiling, happy that Bianca had finally foundbliss.
Bianca wanted to cry when she looked at them, but she could not allow herself to shed a tear
She forced her tears back and inadvertently saw Luke's friends among the guests: Eugene Hawking,Jim Holston, Percy Mallory, and more...
All the heirs to the major conglomerates were there.
Luke brought Bianca around and introduced her to his extended family.
"This is my paternal uncle," Luke introduced Bianca to a man in his sixties who seemed to be ingood spirits.
"My elder cousin brother and sister.” He led Bianca in front of an extremely handsome youth and agentle-looking lady.
"My younger cousin brother.” "My second uncle.”
Bianca knew that the Crawfords' extended family was large, and many of his relatives would bepresent. As Luke continued introducing them to Bianca, she was surprised that there were so manyof them. However, only a few of them were direct relatives.
Even so, all of them had Crawford genes, and they looked handsome and beautiful. Even thechildren were better-looking than regular children.
Luke saw that Bianca was getting confused. He chuckled into her ear and reminded her, "You onlyhave to remember the direct relatives. We won't be meeting the others that often, so you only haveto remember their faces.
"Mm," Bianca answered carelessly. She turned her head and noticed Mr. and Mrs. Norman and theirdaughter.
Leia, dressed up impeccably, was glaring at her coldly.
Bianca could see a hint of condescension, mockery, and even smugness in her gaze.
What made Bianca the most surprised was the woman who had threatened her with the CD was...sitting next to Queenie...
Alarm bells rang in her head. How did that woman sneak into the event? 1
What relationship did she have with the Norman family?
Countless gazes in the hall were focused on Bianca. Among them were sentiments of curiosity,criticism, awe, envy, and even jealousy.
All that because Luke Crawford, the pride of the Crawford family, was about to be engaged to anunremarkable woman.
Four full chests were placed on the stage. They were the wedding gifts from Luke to Bianca. Neatstacks of hundred-dollar bills were tied up in pink ribbons.
More than that were a countless number of gold bars, brilliant diamond rings, deeds to mansions,and all sorts of gold and silver jewelry and luxury watches. It was a dazzling sight.
The guests could not help but be impressed. Only the Crawford family could afford such lavish gifts!That had also told them how important the bride was to Luke.
Otherwise, why would Luke shower her with that much wealth at the engagement ceremony? Shewas not anyone important.
Instead of feeling excited, Bianca's palms started sweating when she noticed the beguiling womanin the hall.
Her grip on Luke's elbow became tighter. She felt cold all over her body, and her face startedturning pale.
She forced herself to maintain the smile on her face and a steady step as she and Luke walked fromthe edge of the stage to the center.
The distance was less than a hundred feet, but it felt like a long and arduous journey.
The MC announced the start of the ceremony.
Luke's sculpted face was not cold and harsh as usual. Because of his good mood, his gaze was warmand enchanting as he looked at Bianca.
He hugged Bianca as his well-built body stood in front of the microphone. Facing the audience, hemade a joyous speech. "Thank you, everyone, for attending my engagement ceremony. At thismoment, I am in a good mood, because I am about to be engaged with the woman I love. I thoughtthat I would remain single for all my life, but I did not expect that I would be so lucky to meet her.She is a kind and gentle woman, and she has brought warmth to my life. I will spend the rest of mylife loving, protecting, and pampering her. From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank hergrandfather and aunt for taking care of her. Without them, I would not have my wife."
His speech was greeted with thunderous applause.
Old Master Rayne and Wanda looked at the handsome young man on the stage. Their eyes filled upwith tears of joy and gratitude as they looked at the man who was willing to pamper Bianca like atreasure.
As Bianca listened to Luke's simple yet moving speech, the tears in her eyes threatened to fall.
His words had made her forget her sorrow and immersed her in bliss.
She knew that the usually serious Luke was not very good at flowery language, and he was alwayscold-faced while in public situations. She did not expect him to make that speech in front ofeveryone.
She felt so many emotions in her heart.
Luke was holding a ring with a diamond as big as a quail egg. He went down on one knee and saidto Bianca affectionately, "Bianca Rayne, I would like to take your hand in marriage. I want to walktogether with you on an amazing journey and take in all the splendid sights of the world. BiancaRayne, are you willing to be my wife?" “Yes, I do! I want to be your wife and love you for the rest ofmy life!" Bianca screamed in her heart as she was charmed by Luke's gentle voice and demeanor.Subconsciously, she stretched out her left hand, allowing Luke to wear the diamond ring on her ringfinger.
Inadvertently, she lifted her head and saw that beguiling woman smirking coldly at her.
The woman whispered something into Jack's ear, which caused his expression to suddenly turnserious!
Then, the woman took out something round and flat from her gown and handed it to Jack...
