Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1058

"Yes, Boss, understood," Jason replied quickly, relieved that his boss was not angry at him.

Luke frowned hard and did not say anything after that. His fingers tapped swiftly on the keyboard.

Jason glanced at the time and said, "Boss, we have a quarterly work meeting in ten minutes."

"Mm," Luke grunted his acknowledgment. The Middle Eastern military was not very cooperative, and they were not willing to divulge any more information on Robert's godson.

He was still communicating with them, hoping that they would tell him more.

After sending the email, Luke frowned and clasped his hands together, waiting for a reply.

Jason knew that he was still searching for Bianca and did not want to disturb him. He walked out of the office and closed the door gently behind him.

Meanwhile, two security guards brought Maxine out of T Corporation. Before she could straighten her clothes, she saw several news vans parked at the roadside.

The logos on the vehicles showed that they were from A City's most prominent media outlets.

Maxine frowned. She quickly went to her car in case they saw her, but she did not drive away. Instead, she looked out of the window and saw several reporters coming out of the vans and standing outside the entrance to T Corporation.

Her car window was open, and she could hear the reporters' conversation. They were there to look for Luke to find out more about Allison.

Maxine's hands gripped the steering wheel tightly. After Abel abducted Bianca, she dared not look for Luke in case he suspected her.

She would not have come to look for him if not that Allison asked her for help.

Seeing the security guards keeping the reporters out of the building, Maxine clenched her fists and slammed down on the steering wheel. She accidentally hit the horn, which attracted the attention of all the reporters.

Maxine quickly let go, fastened her seatbelt, and quickly drove away from the scene.

The reporters lingered at the entrance, hoping that they could catch a glimpse of Luke and obtain information from him.

Maxine wore her Bluetooth headset and gave Hera a call.

"Where are you?" Her sour mood was evident.

"I'm at the hospital. What's up?" Hera was not expecting Maxine to contact her after the deed was done.

Was Maxine going to give her more money? Hera was strapped for cash at the moment.

"Why are you at the hospital? Are you doing another cosmetic surgery procedure again?" Maxine asked. She could guess what Hera was doing.

"How did you know?" Hera was lying on the bed at the moment. She had just finished the consultation session, and the procedure would be done the next day.

With the money from the job, she could afford to stay in a private ward. It was much more comfortable than the three-bedder.

"I'll go and look for you." Maxine ended the call after saying that. She considered that Luke was Hera's senior in high school, so Hera should know some way to win Luke's heart.

Maxine entered Hera's ward twenty minutes later and sat on the couch without saying anything.

Hera sat cross-legged on the bed, looking at Maxine's dark expression and wondering if someone had offended her.
