Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 301

Chapter 301 Luke Could Instantly Guess the Reason

CEO's office, T Corporation.

"Mr. Crawford, I cannot be Ms. Rayne's defense lawyer in her divorce case.

I'm sorry." Walter stood in front of Luke’s desk. His face was scrunched up.

He was wracked with guilt for having declined Luke's request. After all, he enjoyed his current fame because of Luke.

Walter carefully glanced at Luke.

Luke was sitting casually on his chair. The sunlight that shone into the office from the floor-to-ceiling window highlighted his sculpted features.

He took a puff from a cigarette. Amid the swirling clouds of smoke, his slightly furrowed brows indicated his displeasure.

"Reason?" Luke flicked his cigarette. His harsh face showed no emotion.

"Shandra is back." Walter's expression was unreadable. "I've owed her too much. She even... removed her womb because of me. I didn't know that I'd caused her so much damage. I've always wanted to repay the debt, but she never lets me. She's too prideful to ask for anything from me, except this time..." "Shandra Cullen is Xavier's defense lawyer?" Luke instantly got to the point.

"Yes." Walter clenched his right fist tightly.

Luke knew about what happened between Walter and Shandra.

Shandra was a prideful individual. She was an outstanding layer, and she had made a name for herself for her penchant for engaging in quibble.

However, Shandra was never particular about her cases. She accepted any case for the right price, even if her client was a notorious criminal. That was why she had a mixed reputation among lawyers.

Walter continued, "Mr. Crawford, I have already contacted Mr. Irving Scott of Viva Law Firm. He usually handled international cases and is renowned inside and outside of the country. I know him quite well, and he has agreed to take over Ms. Rayne's divorce case. This is his information."

Walter handed a folder containing information about Irving Scott to Luke.

Luke did not read it immediately. He furrowed his brows, seeming to ponder about something.

"Alright then. Mr. Scott shall handle the divorce case," he said.

Walter breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Luke's next words made Walter nervous again. "You should find some closure between you and Shandra. You might accept her demands this time, but what about next time, or after that? The rules of this world are harsh. No one would unconditionally comply with her, unlike you."

Walter was on his way out of the office. He paused in his footsteps for a brief moment, let out a sigh, and went out through the door.

Leia was having dinner with her parents when she received the call from the detective agency.
