Chapter 1066 Bianca Was Everything to Him
"Bea is one of us. You'll have to bring her back no matter what," Old Master Crawford said as he looked at the
children who were playing in the garden. They might seem happy, but the old man could tell that they were
worried.
The children were still young, and they needed a mother for their upbringing. Luke was not the kind of man who
would marry another woman just for their children. He was not going to love another woman other than Bianca.
Luke looked at the sun that was setting beyond the mountains. Summer was coming to an end.
Bianca had said that summer was her favorite season.
"I will bring her back," Luke said. He had said the same sentence to many people, and he had sounded confident
every time he said that.
He was not afraid of any danger. Bianca was everything to him.
Old Master Crawford patted his shoulder and said, "I've heard that Old Master Rayne's health is declining. I know
that you're busy searching for Bianca, but don't forget to show some concern to the old man too."
Now that Bianca was missing, it was up to Luke to take care of Old Master Rayne.
"Mm." He nodded. As he looked at the playing children, his gaze dimmed with an undetectable hint of sadness.
The next two months passed in the blink of an eye. Bianca's stomach was growing. It was not very obvious, but one
could see that she was pregnant.
Shanks put the apparatus down and said impassively, 'The baby is stable."
Bianca touched her stomach. Life in the past two months had been tough for Bianca. Despite her pregnancy, Abel
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthad insisted that she participate in various training sessions. They were not too physically intensive, but Bianca had
never done it before, so she found it quite difficult.
However, she persisted. The baby in her womb had persisted too.
"You still have to eat those." Shanks stood up and pointed at the supplements on the table.
He did not make those supplements. Instead, he had left the island and bought them on the mainland.
It had been two months, but various forces were discreetly observing the island. One had to leave the island from
the opposite side so no one would notice them.
The island was still in the process of rebuilding. If those forces or the government noticed that, they would certainly
bring trouble.
"Mm." Bianca nodded slightly and touched her stomach. Eler had taken good care of her for the past two months,
and she did not skip a meal or miss out on her supplements.
Shanks turned around and left the room.
In the past two months, Shanks had rarely communicated with her, other than dressing her wounds.
Bianca did not attempt to suck up to him like what other people did, nor did he find any joy in tormenting Bianca, as
Abel did.
Eler came in with breakfast. Seeing that Bianca was done with her examination, she placed the tray on the table
and said, "Please eat your breakfast, Miss."
Bianca looked at the steaming hot meal. Her stomach was empty, but she did not feel any discomfort. "I'm not
hungry, Eler." "You should eat some. You'll have archery class later, so you should take this time to eat. That'll be
better for your stomach," Eler said. Abel had designed a series of courses for Bianca. Even though archery was not
very physically intensive, it would not be good for her body if she ate later and had to exercise on a full stomach.
Bianca felt a pang of despair when she heard that. She looked at her hand; her fingers were already callused from
wielding a bow. She got out of bed, sat on the chair, and slowly ate her breakfast.
"Have you eaten?" She asked.
Eler and Amur were subject to the training regimen too, and their regimen was several times tougher than
Bianca's.
"Amur and I have eaten, Miss. Don’t worry about us," Eler said while preparing the day's supplements for Bianca.
Shanks had prescribed all that.
She brought the supplements and warm water to Bianca and said, "What did Mr. Shanks say earlier, Moss?" "The
baby is stable." Bianca instinctively touched her stomach and ate several more bites of her breakfast. She was
feeling quite full, so she ate the supplements and gulped down the water.
Eler frowned when she saw that most of the breakfast was untouched." You're eating too little, Miss." "I'm already
full," Bianca said. She was not used to the cooking here.
"You're already three months pregnant. You should eat more." Eler thought that Bianca was too thin and that the
baby did not receive enough nutrition.
"I'll eat more during lunch," Bianca said with a smile. She went to the bedside, picked up a jacket, and suddenly
seemed surprised.
"What's wrong, Miss?" Eler asked out of concern.
Bianca turned around to look at her. "It's almost winter now, right?" "Mm. It's almost winter. It should be very cold
on the surface," Eler said. It was still fall, but the Island of Despair was very far north, so the temperature was very
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlow.
The temperature was regulated in the underground building complex.
"It's been that long." Bianca shook her head helplessly and wore her jacket.
The winters in A City were usually very cold too. She wondered if Luke had prepared the children's winter clothes.
"It's almost training time, Miss." Eler did not know what Bianca was thinking, but they could not afford to be late.
Bianca and Eler left the room.
They did not head to the training grounds. Instead, they walked eastward for ten minutes.
The mercenary saw them coming in, then looked at the time. Bianca, Eler, and Amur would have been tardy if they
had arrived one minute later.
He grunted coldly and said, "You will undergo archery training today. Those one hundred arrows are yours," the
mercenary said while pointing at Bianca.
Bianca frowned when she looked at the sharp arrows. It would be a difficult session.
The mercenary ignored that and pointed at the larger pile of arrows next to it. "The six hundred arrows here are for
you two. Every arrow has to hit the bullseye. If you don't, remove the arrow and shoot it again. Today’s training
session will end after you have reached your quota."
Eler gasped. They had to finish all six hundred arrows, and all of them had to hit the bullseye...
She looked at Bianca worriedly. Would she be able to do that?
Bianca calmly picked up the bow and arrow and took aim. She stretched her bow and fired. The arrow landed on
the bullseye.
She had trained the most on archery and her dagger in the past two months. At first, she could not even fire her
arrow in a straight line. Now, she could almost always hit the bullseye. She had been improving.
"Don't worry, she can do it," Amur sensed his sister's worry and said softly.
