Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2745

"You’re the host," said Luke. When he was in the front yard, those people were only interested in striking up a conversation with Luke. Luke had no choice but to talk to them. It was for the sake of the Crawford family's reputation.

However, Louis was the star today.

Therefore, Luke seized the opportunity to bring Louis along with him to make them realize who the real star of the show was.

"Brother..." Louis knew that Luke was doing this for him.

Even though his work was stable now, he needed to expand his connections to grow his business. Those people outside were the key to growing his network.

"Lead us out through the back door," said Luke.

"Alright." Louis did not say anything when he saw how determined Luke was. He led them to the back door and opened the door for them.

“Brother, Dr. Craw, I’m sorry for the inconvenience caused today," Louis apologized again.

"Hurry back. The guests are still waiting for you in the front yard," replied Luke. He chose to leave through the back door because he knew that Luca would not like getting too much attention.

"Okay." Louis watched Luke, Luca, and the kids leave through the back door. Only then did he close the door.

He returned to the living room and saw Yuri rushing in, "What are you doing here? The guests are waiting in the front yard."

Louis handed the surveillance footage he saved on his phone to Yuri to watch.

"Isn't that Mrs. Jackman and Mrs. Malcolm?" exclaimed Yuri. She knew Mrs. Jackman and Mrs. Malcolm because she would occasionally accompany Susan to have afternoon tea and go shopping with them. It was to maintain her relationship with them.

"Where's Brother?" She realized that something was wrong and immediately asked him. She was worried that Luke was enraged and would make a scene.

"He went home," Louis' face was pale with anger. "He’ll investigate this matter, but only when the guests have left."

Yuri replied with an unpleasant expression on her face, "Mrs. Jackman is a friend of Mother’s. Mother will be upset if Brother looks into this. You should talk to him. He’s your brother. Try to smooth things over between them."

"He’s doing me a favor by choosing to talk about it after the event," Louis clenched his fists. Yuri was not someone who could not distinguish right from wrong, yet she was speaking up for Mrs. Jackman. It was hard for him to believe that, and he felt disappointed.

Yuri realized that Louis was angry. She moved her lips but did not say a word.

It was indeed inappropriate for Mrs. Jackman to do that to Luca.

Yuri knew that Louis personally invited Luca over.

Mrs. Jackman was not showing any respect to him by treating Luca that way.

Yuri suddenly understood why Louis got so angry...

"Forget it. The guests are outside now. We have to go out," said Yuri. They had to entertain the guests and maintain their manners as a host.

"Alright." Louis knew there were still guests in the front yard. Thus, he walked out to the front yard with Yuri.

In the front yard.

After instructing the security guard to delete the surveillance footage, Mrs. Jackman and Susan returned to the front yard with ease.

Mrs. Jackman looked around. She could not find where Luke was, not to mention Luca. She frowned.

"Where did you go?" Mrs. Jackman’s husband, Lonnie Jackman, walked toward her and asked.

Mrs. Jackman's heart tightened as she replied in a guilty tone, "I was just having tea with Madam Crawford and Mrs. Malcolm in the backyard. What’s wrong?"

If T Corporation refused to help, he would be left with no choice but to give up the project.

However, giving up the project would mean paying a huge amount of penalty for breaching the contract.

Mrs. Jackman realized how serious the situation was. She immediately pulled his sleeve and moved aside. "You didn't get to talk to Luke just now?"

"He was surrounded by people. How could I get close to him? Besides, I was too embarrassed to do so. You’ll get it done.” Lonnie was unhappy with her pulling his sleeves. He straightened himself up.

"Are you dumb?" Mrs. Jackman rolled her eyes. Did he really think she could help him?

Susan and Luke had no maternal bond, and she partnered up with Susan to bully Luca earlier. If Luke knew about this, he would never agree to work together with the Jackman family.

"I know that Luke is not Madam Crawford’s biological son, but they’re still a family. If Madam Crawford can't help us, don’t we have Mr. Louis to help us? I heard that the brothers are close. They don't engage in the cut-throat competition and power struggles that take place among wealthy families. Anyway, you're Mr. Louis’ aunt. Can’t you talk to him and ask for help?" His plan was well thought out.

"Can't you find another construction company?" asked Mrs. Jackman.

There were so many companies in the country. She refused to believe that only T Corporation could satisfy the client.

"The contract’s requirement is to get design drawings from T Corporation. Otherwise, it’s going to be a breach of contract." Lonnie frowned. He did not think this was a difficult matter. Why was she making excuses?

"Well, if that's the case, then we'll just breach the contract. Why work with such a difficult client?" Mrs. Jackman replied indifferently. The company had many projects going on, and it was okay to lose one or two projects.

"You make it sound easy, I'll have to pay eight figures if we breach the contract," Lonnie’s expression darkened.

Mrs. Jackman was managing the company’s finances. How could she not have a sense of financial responsibility?

Mrs. Jackman was dumbfounded for a moment. "That much? What kind of project is this?"
