Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1180

The next morning, Crawford Manor was as peaceful as ever. The only difference was that Bianca had woken up early.

She opened the door to the study and saw that Luke was wearing his necktie. She grinned brilliantly, walked over, and said, "Let me help you, Luke."

Luke let go of his hands and let her do it.

Bianca took the necktie and tied a perfect Windsor knot. She had learned to do that to get in his good graces. "Is this good enough?"

"Mm." Luke lowered his head and looked at the necktie. Her fingers were just as nimble as before, but her personality had nevertheless changed.

Even though Jason had not returned with the analysis of the recording, he believed what the reporter said.

If Bianca had not done it, the reporter would not have framed her.

"You came back very late last night, didn't you? What time did you reach home?" Bianca asked. She guessed that Luke had left the house yesterday to take care of the scandal. She wanted to wait for him to see if he managed to do anything, but she had fallen asleep before he returned.

"Some time after midnight, I think." Luke turned around and put on the freshly-pressed coat.

"How's the investigation coming along?" Bianca asked.

Luke turned around to look at her. Bianca was looking at him with an innocent smile. She did not seem flustered at all.

Was the truth just as the reporter said?

If that were the case, it meant that Bianca did not know that he had found the reporter, and the person who had been harboring the reporter did not tell her.

The last possibility was that she was a good actress, and she was testing him.

"What investigation?" Luke did not tell her that he had found the reporter.

"Huh? Didn't you go out to handle the scandal? I know that you're innocent, but if the scandal continues to spread, it won't be good for you, the family, the company, and the children," Bianca said. She did not believe that he had not done anything yet.

"I'll get to the bottom of it." As soon as Luke finished speaking, his phone started to ring.

He looked at the screen and saw that it was from Johann. "Let me pick this up."

"Alright." Bianca sneaked a glance at his phone screen, saw that the call was from Johann, and left the room. Even so, she could not believe that Luke had not done anything about the scandal.

'Where did he go last night? Don't tell me he was with that Ivana woman?'

Bianca became wary when she thought about that. At the same time, her phone started to vibrate.

On the screen was a string of numbers. Instantly, she returned to her bedroom, locked the door, and answered the call.

Luke went downstairs after ending the call. When he met the butler, he told him, "I'm going to the hospital. Get the driver to send the children to school."

"Yes, Sir." The butler nodded. While Luke picked up the keys, the butler said, "Sir, won't you have your breakfast before leaving? I don't suppose that you're in such a hurry."

"It's fine." Luke took the keys and walked out of the house. Johann had told him that Queenie's test report was ready, and he should go over and take a look.

The toxicology report had been expedited, and Luke could hear from Johann's tone of voice that the matter was serious. That was why he immediately went to the hospital.
