Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1057

On the next day in T Corporation.

Luke was handling some issues at work when Jason knocked on the door and entered. He said, "Boss, Miss Douglas is in the lobby downstairs. She said she needs to meet up with you regarding a very important issue."

"Which Miss Douglas are you referring to?" Luke did not lift his head and was in the middle of a conversation with the people from the Middle East to clarify the death of Robert's foster son.

Jason replied, "It's Madam's niece, the young lady from the capital."

Luke knew who she was. He continued to type on the keyboard. He did not think much about it and immediately rejected it. "I'm not going to see her without an appointment."

"Yes, sir." Jason knew what to do and left the office, closing the door behind him.

The atmosphere in T Corporation was currently very tense because Luke was in a foul mood. No one dared to offend him.

Upon returning to his office, Jason called the front desk and relayed Luke's message.

Maxine was sitting on the sofa, waiting for a response. The front desk employee came over and showed a sweet smile. She relayed Jason's reply to her. "Miss Douglas, I'm sorry to make you wait for so long. Mr. Crawford's schedule is a little tight today, hence he can't spare any time to meet those without an appointment."

Maxine got up, her sweet expression immediately changing for the worse. "Did you guys get something wrong when passing him the message?”

"What?" The employee was dumbfounded and unable to comprehend why she would say that.

"The Crawford family is facing such a huge crisis now and I'm here to help. Forget it, it's fruitless talking to you. I'll just head upstairs." Maxine spun around and headed for the elevator.

The employee knew her own status and dared not stop her. She just trailed behind her. "Miss Douglas, this is Mr. Crawford's order. Please don't put us in a difficult spot."

"Will you guys bear the responsibility if you delay this issue?" Maxine pressed the button for the elevator.

The employee was anxious. "Miss Douglas, why don’t you tell me the situation and I'll go relay it to Mr. Crawford? Will that be alright with you?"

"No need for that." Maxine saw that the elevator had arrived on the first floor and immediately entered.

The employee gritted her teeth while thinking to herself, 'Why do I have to deal with this troublesome visitor?’ She was afraid she would be scolded and fired. Hence, she had no choice but to enter the elevator as well.

Maxine ignored her. She took out her lipstick and put on makeup in the elevator.

The employee glanced at her meticulous actions. 'Those who are unaware would think that she's going to seduce Luke.'

The news of Bianca being kidnapped had spread like wildfire long ago. Everyone in T Corporation was horrified and worried that they would offend Luke. They did not want to be fired.

Maxine had put on thick makeup and was eager to meet Luke. This scene would be easily misunderstood by others.

The elevator arrived at the top floor. Maxine kept her lipstick and walked out of the elevator with a sweet smile.

The employee quickly followed her, and when they passed by Jason's office, the employee knocked on the door. Upon entering, she pleaded for help.

"I can't stop Miss Douglas, Mr. Doyle." The employee put on a teary look.

Jason saw an outline passing by his office. The clicking sound from her high heels made him have a bad feeling. He immediately tossed all the work in his hands aside and walked out.

At that moment, he saw Miss Douglas walking to Luke's office. He was very worried that he might lose his job.

He caught hold of Maxine. "Miss Douglas, the boss is very busy. He has no time to meet anyone."

Maxine's footsteps came to a halt. She looked at him. "Mr. Doyle, I have an important issue to talk about with Luke. If you're not going to inform him, then I'll just look for him myself."

When she was downstairs, she still respectfully addressed him as Mr. Crawford. Now that she was upstairs, she was referring to him in an intimate manner.
