Chapter 286 That Was the First Time Luke Climbed Through A Window
Regal Capital.
At night, Bianca sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window after she took a bath.
She tilted her head and looked outside. The street lights in the neighborhood were dim, and she could
only see several faint shadows.
She did not turn on the heater in the house.
Bianca was dressed in thin cotton pajamas. It was slightly cold, but that was how she could keep
herself conscious...
None of the furnishings of the room had changed, but she felt that it was barren and desolate.
It was lacking the warmth of her two babies. She was alone, and even the air in the room tasted bitter.
She thought of Nina, whose fate was currently unknown, her two children, and Luke, whose
temperament had suddenly changed. She buried her head in her knees.
Outside of Bianca's neighborhood, Luke tried to reach her over the phone but to no avail.
He knew that Bianca was at home; he had gone to Kevin's former house and found Wanda staying
there by herself.
She was not at the new house she had rented for her grandfather either.
She did not have many friends in the company, only two that she could talk with.
Luke knew that Bianca would not go trouble her friends when she was feeling down. She would also
not spend the money on renting a hotel room.
The only place she could be would be the rental house that she had left vacant because she had an
argument with the woman next door. There was still some time on the lease.
Every apartment block in the neighborhood had two gates, the first of which required an access card.
Luke was seldom there, and he did not have a card, which meant that he was stuck outside.
The weather had turned cold, and everyone stayed at home. Nobody went in and out at night.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe waited there for twenty minutes, and he had stubbed out several cigarettes on the garbage can
nearby. No one opened the front gate of Apartment Number 12, where Bianca lived.
Luke's patience was running dry. He carefully examined the structure of the apartment block.
He was a genius designer. It did not take him long to figure out a way up.
The old-fashioned apartment block had a simple structure. Each of the balconies was old and narrow,
but it could fit exactly one person.
He took the last drag of his cigarette and stubbed it out.
With his right hand, he gripped the time-worn water pipe that ran down the wall. It was somewhat
sturdy.
He put one of his feet on a peeling depression in the wall, gripped the pipe tight, and pulled with his
strong arm. He concluded that the pipe might look fragile, but it was enough to support an adult man's
body weight.
He gripped the pipe with both of his hands, then pulled himself upward. His black windbreaker fluttered
in the night sky in a mysterious and elegant arc
With the upward thrust, his incredibly agile body soared into the air, and from there, he gripped the
balustrade of the second-floor balcony.
He flipped over the balustrade and found himself standing on the second- floor balcony.
Using the same method, he went up to the third floor, then the fourth floor.
Bianca lived in Unit 509, on the fifth floor.
Her house should be the fourth window counting from the eastern end.
After estimating where her house was, Luke climbed along the wall and soon arrived below the window
of Unit 509.
The window was half open, not to mention that there was no anti-theft net.
Luke was happy that he could get in so easily, but his expression sank when he realized that the house
was not safe for Bianca. If he could get in so easily, then what about thieves or other bad guys?
He opened the window fully and entered the house.
He remembered that the window opened to the living room.
Once he got in, he realized that something was amiss.
Bianca usually kept her living room clean. The living room that he was currently in was as disorganized
as it could be.
The entire place was piled with trash and other miscellaneous items. Unwashed pots, pans, and bowls
were stacked on top of clothes, bedsheets, and footwear.
Several cups of instant noodles were scattered on the coffee table. The utter foulness of the place
made Luke the clean freak frown hard!
He realized that he had entered the wrong house.
Just when he was about to retreat through the window, the bathroom door opened.
A two-hundred-pound woman stepped out. The folds of fat and flesh on her body were jiggling.
When she saw Luke appear in her house like a phantom, she immediately shrieked in panic and
quickly covered her body with pajamas. "Ahh! Thief! Rapist! Help!" The shrillness of her voice was
enough to pierce one's eardrums.
Luke pondered about the position of the house.
'Bianca's house should be here. Where was I mistaken?'
Luke frowned and said, "I'm sorry to disturb you. Can you tell me if this is
Unit 509?" "Ahh! Help!" The fat lady closed her eyes tightly and shrieked hysterically, afraid of the
sudden presence of that man.
"Shut up! I'll kill you if you make another sound!" Luke's sinister voice sounded as though it was from
hell.
He was almost turning deaf because of the woman's inhuman shrieks. Not only that, he was frustrated
that he had seen such an eyesore instead of Bianca, which made his tone of voice sound threatening.
The fat lady did what she was told; perhaps she was stunned by the hostility in his voice.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen she saw Luke's handsome face clearly, her eyes nearly popped out of their sockets!
'Oh my god, this guy is too charming! He's a hundred times more handsome than those Swedish hunks
on TV!"
She had only seen men of that caliber in drama series or magazines. It was her luck that she could
meet one in real life.
Was he a surprise from heaven?
"I'm asking you, what's the number of this house?" Luke's impatience was evident on his face.
The fat lady was not afraid anymore. Instead, she blushed intensely. "This is Number 506.1 only moved
here a few days ago, and I haven't cleaned up yet. Don't mind it at all, handsome! I'll clean up in a
while and make dinner for you. My cooking is very good..." "Where's Number 509?" Luke interjected.
"Number 509 is three houses to the right... Can I have your phone number, please?" The fat lady said
coyly.
Luke immediately jumped out of the window and nimbly jumped to the balcony on the right!
"Don't go, handsome! I'm still a virgin! Come back!" The fat lady stuck her head out of the window and
called out to Luke lovingly.
Luke had a fright and nearly lost his footing!
He turned back to see the fat lady staring at him and calling out to him. When he arrived at the balcony
of Unit 507, he noticed a large cactus plant in a pot. He broke off a piece without a care for the sharp
spines, then threw it at the lady's forehead!
The lady shrieked in agony and fell backward. Then, the world resumed its silence...
Luke took a breath of relief when he arrived at the balcony of Unit 509.
It was the first time in Luke's life that he climbed up a building, and it was also the first time that he had
met such a crazy lady!
He was about to climb through the window, like what he did before.
When he wanted to open the window, he was shocked. Bianca would usually leave the window open,
but this time they were locked... 1
