Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1186

Rainie nodded and did not ask any further questions.

After Luke sent Jack and Queenie back to their residence, he went to the apartment.

Liam was eating a boxed dinner that the bodyguards bought him. He stood up immediately and instinctively straightened his clothes when he saw Luke walk in. "Mr. Crawford, can I go home now?"

"Not yet," he said sullenly.

"Why not? You're detaining me illegally," Liam said agitatedly when he heard that he could not go home yet.

The bodyguards treated him well, but he was not free to come and go as he pleased.

"Do one last thing for me," Luke said. His gaze was unfathomably profound.

Liam shuddered when he looked at the man who was one head taller than him. "What do you want me to do?

"Write another article and confess that you have slandered Mr. Crawford because you were paid to do so," Jason, who was standing behind Luke, said.

He had sent the recording in for analysis earlier and found that it was authentic.

"Paid to do so?" Liam's eyes widened in disbelief. "Are you sure you want me to say that your wife paid me to do it?"

Luke's expression sank.

Liam realized that he had misspoken. He shuddered and said, "I know what to do."

He understood that they wanted him to confess that he had taken money to do the job, but at the same time, they did not want him to expose the fact that Bianca was the one who had hired him.

"Give him the laptop." Luke turned around and sat down on the couch.

Jason nodded and handed the reporter the laptop that he had prepared. "Go on and write the article. You can go home after you've written it."

Liam dared not protest. He took the laptop, logged into his account, and began to write the article.

With his many years of journalistic experience, he quickly finished the article and let Luke read it. Luke nodded after browsing through it.

"Publish it," Jason said.

Liam took two deep breaths and pressed the button to publish the article.

The article also meant the end of his career. At the very least, no media outlet in A City would want to hire him.

Jason browsed the forum and saw Liam's announcement. He nodded and said, "It's done, Boss."

"Let him go," Luke said.

"You can go now." Jason took the laptop and shut it down.

Liam stood up but did not move. He was thinking of something.

Seeing that the reporter remained on the spot, Jason asked him, "Is there anything else?"

Liam rubbed his palms together. Now that his career was ruined, he might as well ask Luke. "Mr. Crawford, now that I've posted the announcement, I won't be able to find a job in A City anymore. Can you at least give me some money so that I can return to my hometown?"

Luke stood up and left the apartment.

Liam watched in shock as Luke walked away. "Mr. Crawford?" He tried to give chase.

"Don't bother." Jason stretched out his arm and blocked him.

Liam tried to go around Jason's arm, but Luke had already left the apartment, and the bodyguard closed the door. Liam felt the despair creeping in.
