Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2928

"How's Mrs. Norman doing? What did the doctor say?" asked Luca. She was caught off guard by this sudden piece of gossip news. Her once peaceful state of mind was shattered, leaving her with a buzzing brain.

She did not know how to clarify things. All she wanted now was for those who mattered to her to be safe and sound.

"I just asked Johann. Her condition isn't too good. She needs rest.” Luke’s expression remained unchanged as he told this white lie.

Luca would certainly contact Johann to find out more about Queenie’s condition. Luke had already informed Johann about that.

When Luca asked about Queenie's situation, they had to make her believe that it was not optimistic.

Luca's heart tightened, unsure if Luke was deliberately misleading her. However, she believed that Queenie’s condition was really terrible.

She felt helpless, never expecting that her selfishness would lead to Queenie falling ill…

For a moment, Luca had the urge to reveal the truth and her real identity as Bianca.

As she sat in the passenger seat, she clenched her fist. Upon loosening it, she tightened it again a few seconds later.

Luca was lost.

When the thought of the gossip news crossed her mind, she asked, "What about the gossip news? What should we do about it?"

"I might have to trouble you for a moment," Luke casted a sidelong glance at her. He could see that Luca was upset. His heart was torn, but he had to continue. "I’ll hold a press conference to clear up this rumor."

"Alright." Luca nodded. She knew that if Luke cleared things up on his side, she might have to deal with public opinion turning against her on her side.

She would be treated unfairly.

However, as long as the public, Queenie, as well as Wanda and the others, believed in her, she did not mind.

Their safety was all that mattered. Others did not matter that much to her.

It did not matter even if she had to suffer some injustice.

As Luca thought about it, she asked Luke again, "What about Ms. Rayne…"

"She probably hasn't seen the news yet. Other than my parents-in-law, no one else has received any information," answered Luke.

Luca let out a sigh of relief. They were still kept in the dark. It would give them more time to handle the situation.

"T Corporation's entrance is swarming with reporters now, and I assume it's the same for Watson's side. Don't go downstairs for lunch today. Let your assistant bring it to you. When you leave work in the afternoon, exit from the parking lot," instructed Luke.

Even though reporters might also surround the parking lot exit, it would be much safer to leave in a car without getting stopped.

"Okay. Got it." It was not Luca’s first time being surrounded by reporters. She secretly let out a sneer. Even after all these years, it seemed like she had grown accustomed to this situation…

Luke escorted Luca to Watson's underground parking lot.

After she got out of the car, she took the elevator back to her office floor.

In the elevator, Luca encountered several of Watson's employees.

They greeted Luca respectfully when they saw her, but once they got inside the elevator, they sized her up.

Then, they exchanged glances with their colleagues, having silent conversations about the gossip.
