Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2746

"The project in Europe isn’t a small project. They were interested in working with T Corporation for the design, and they hope that Luke can be involved in this. But T Corporation has a busy schedule and they declined the offer. I promised the client that I could make T Corporation work together with me to get the design drawing. That’s why they gave the project to me,” explained Lonnie as he noticed Louis and Yuri walking out of the house.

"Come on. Let Louis make a referral." Lonnie urged his wife, who was so close with Susan that even Louis addressed her as Aunt Margaret.

Hence, Louis could help to make a referral and arrange a meeting with Luke.

With Louis’ help, Lonnie was confident that if he could talk with Luke, the project was bound to succeed.

Even if T Corporation was swamped with projects, they could spare some time to help with the design drawing.

"Stop this nonsense!" Mrs. Jackman refused to do so. She shook his hand off.

"What’s with the attitude?!" Lonnie thought she was mad at him and that was why she refused to pull the strings. "If I lose money, your good life will be gone too!"

"Fine. I’ll tell you the truth!" Mrs. Jackman scowled, realizing that they had attracted the attention of the people around them. She pulled him and led him to a corner of the front yard.

Lonnie saw how reluctant she was. He had no choice but to promise her, "If you can help me make a referral, I’ll dump that woman and never contact her again!"

Mrs. Jackman felt upset.

Previously, she had tried various ways to force Lonnie to break up with his mistress, but he had never shown any intention of doing so.

Now, he promised her that he would dump his mistress for the sake of a design project. It was clear how much profit this project could bring to the company.

Otherwise, Lonnie would not have promised her that he would dump that woman.

"It's not that I refuse to help, but there’s no way I can help this time," explained Mrs. Jackman as her eyes reddened.

If she had suppressed her emotions and not vented her anger on Luca on behalf of Susan, perhaps Lonnie would really have been able to sever ties with his mistress. No one would be able to interfere with their married life in the future, and Lonnie could elevate his business to new heights.

She would be able to have a harmonious marriage and a better life…

However, Mrs. Jackman regretted what she did. What she had done to Luca turned all possibilities into illusions…

"You’re still mad at me!" Lonnie grumbled with annoyance. He had promised to do what she wanted most, but she still disagreed to help him. She was petty and resentful indeed!

"Forget it. Let me tell you the truth!" Mrs. Jackman had no choice but to reluctantly recount what had happened in the backyard earlier. Her eyes were red and teary.

After Lonnie listened to her, he lifted his hand in frustration, but he put it down again helplessly.

There were too many people around. Lonnie suppressed the urge to slap her in the face. He clenched his teeth, wishing that he could split open his wife's head to see what was in her mind and find out why she was so eager to ruin the Jackman family.

"You, Margaret Sutton, you’ve got a real knack for it! How could you do such a thing? You're pulling the Jackman family into the abyss with you!"

Margaret bit her lip and struggled to hold back her grievances. She murmured in a low voice, "Why are you blaming me? It's all your fault. You’ve been keeping everything from me ever since that wh*re showed up. You don’t even talk to me about the company’s affairs anymore! If I had known about this project, would I have done something to that woman?!"

"Fine. Fine. You're blaming me instead!" Lonnie took a deep breath as he felt a sharp pain in his chest. He pointed at Margaret's face and said coldly, "You know what kind of situation the company is in now. Margaret, you made this mess. You’d better figure out how to fix it. If the company shuts down because of you, I won't spare you!"

His company had been struggling to survive because of the failed investment he made at the end of last year.

Lonnie only managed to get the project after he claimed that he had connections with the Crawford family, hoping to use that to help the company overcome its difficulties and earn a fortune.

However, Margaret had shattered that hope.
