Chapter 443 I'm Getting Married on the First of May? Why Didn't I Know About That?

Jack helped Old Mr. Norman get to his feet. The old man looked at Luke appreciatively and said,

"You're here, Luke and Bianca. Thank you for coming to visit me. You even brought presents!"

Luke greeted the two men courteously and placed the fruit basket on the table. Then, he helped Old

Mr. Norman sit down on his chair again. "Please sit down. I heard that you're not feeling well, so

Bianca and I are here to visit. How are you feeling?” "I'm fine. There's nothing major..." Old Mr.

Norman said tenderly, "You're here too, Bianca. I happen to have several questions to ask you about

the design. There are a few parts that I don't understand...”

Bianca smiled gently and said, "I will answer any questions that you might have to your satisfaction,

Old Mr. Norman." "That's great! Leia, come over here and greet our guests.” Old Mr. Norman

beckoned to Leia.

Leia walked over obediently and said sweetly, "Grandpa."

Her smile was gentle and beautiful but superficial

Bianca noticed that Leia's gaze on her was as sharp and cold as knives of ice. That sent a chill down

her spine.

Old Mr. Norman introduced Bianca to his granddaughter. "This is Bianca Rayne. She's an

architectural designer from T Corporation. She's amazing for designing marvelous works at such a

young age!" He praised.

Leia hid the disdain in her eyes. She stared at Bianca and said gently," Bianca and I know each other,

Grandpa. She helped me when I was doing my commercial shoot at T Corporation.”

When she recalled the time when she was supposed to torment Bianca but ended up having her

endorsement deal taken away, she was frustrated and angry!

"Oh, so Leia knows Ms. Rayne! Which college did you go to, Ms. Rayne?" A shrill voice was heard

from behind. Bianca turned around and saw that it was Old Mrs. Norman.

Old Mrs. Norman knew that her granddaughter had a crush on Luke. She was also satisfied with the

young man's character.

Unfortunately, the man loved another woman. Old Mrs. Norman had always doted on her adoptive

granddaughter, and she thought that Leia was the best. Leia's character, upbringing, and looks were

all better than Bianca's, so why did Bianca deserve to be with Luke?

She was unhappy about Bianca's presence, and therefore there were barbs in her words.

Bianca could understand Old Mrs. Norman's hostility, but she nonetheless felt uneasy about it.

Leia was a love rival, and her grandmother naturally sided with her.

She did not pay any heed to it. Instead, she said candidly, “I graduated from a normal college

abroad, Old Mrs. Norman. The name isn't worth mentioning. I don't think the name of the college is

as important as how the knowledge is applied. After all, an academic degree is but a stepping stone.

What's more important is one's abilities.”

Old Mrs. Norman was disdainful when she heard that. She thought that Bianca did not want to let

her know about the name of the college because she graduated from a degree mill.

She continued praising her granddaughter, "My Leia graduated from the London College of Arts.

That's one of the most prestigious colleges in the world. She got a visual and performing arts

degree from there, and that's why she received the best actress award in her debut role. Unlike

some people who say that they study overseas, they probably paid some money to a third-rate

degree mill..."

Bianca replied modestly, "Money can't buy a degree from my university, Old Mrs. Norman. St.

Andrew's College is known for its academic integrity, and it has one of the best research and

academic facilities in the world. It's no Oxford or Cambridge, but it's the third best university in

England. We're not the best, but we're not the worst either.”

Bianca's words made Old Mrs. Norman shut her mouth.

At the same time, they made Leia blush with embarrassment.

Leia's university sounded prestigious, but it was ranked in the hundreds when compared to the

other colleges. It was far worse than Bianca's university.

Bianca knew that Old Mrs. Norman was unhappy about her. She smiled politely and spoke no more.

Old Mrs. Norman did not want to be courteous toward Bianca, but she could not lose her temper in

front of everyone either.

After all, Bianca was her husband's guest.

Meanwhile, Old Mr. Norman, Jack, and Luke were talking.

As they chatted, Jack became more and more impressed by Luke's abilities. The young man was a

genuine business prodigy. With him at the helm of T Corporation, he controlled the entire city's

economy. His company and subsidiaries represented one-third of the total tax revenue of the city, i

Luke also talked about T Corporation's future expansion plans. Jack felt that the evidence for the

young man's bribery was like a hot potato in his hands...

Should he report it?

It was a difficult question to answer.

He did not want to think of the answer now. He would leave it for a later time.

Suddenly, Jack thought of the old commercial area in downtown A City." How's the urban

reconstruction project coming along, Luke?" He asked.

Luke was dressed in black casual clothes. His imposing aura was hidden.

His answer to Jack was calm and collected. “T Corporation has signed an agreement with Vivi Group,

and construction will start next week. With the collaboration of the two major corporations, I believe

that the old commercial area will soon have a new look." "01" Crawford is lucky to have you. Zachary

was a playboy, and 01' Crawford nearly disowned him..." Old Mr. Norman said emotionally, "I didn't

expect that Zachary's son is so capable. Luke, I'd like you to be my grandson-inlaw, if not that you

already have a girlfriend.”

Luke's gaze turned gentle when he looked at Bianca. His voice was low and resonant but filled with

determination. "Thank you for your favor, Old Mr. Norman, but I already have a woman I love. I will

not marry any woman other than Bianca. We will be married on the 1st of May."

He did not speak too loudly, but everyone in the yard heard his voice. Everyone instantly fell silent.

Their reactions were different.

Old Mr. Norman was disappointed. Old Mrs. Norman was frustrated. Jack was shocked. Queenie was

helpless. Bianca was dumbfounded...

"Huh? We're getting married on the 1 st of May? Why didn't I know about it?’

Leia felt as though her heart had been branded by an iron. They were about to get married on the

1st of May? Why was it so fast?

When she looked at Bianca once more, hatred and destruction filled her gaze!
