Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3110

"Later, Mr. Crawford found out that Mr. Muller, the butler, had fallen downstairs and fainted. Since the danger outside had been resolved, he came to call me downstairs to check on Mr. Muller's condition," said Luca.

"I know some medical skills, but as soon as I found out that Mr. Muller had fallen, I told Mr. Crawford to call the ambulance. It was only then that I went downstairs to examine Mr. Muller."

Luca explained in detail. All of this had been planned out with Luke.

Luke had tampered with the surveillance. Therefore, in the surveillance footage, her descent downstairs occurred after Luke made the emergency call.

The hospital would also have records, so Luca was not worried about any loopholes.

Perhaps due to the nature of the Island of Despair, Luke's and her extra vigilance left no room for anyone to exploit loopholes.

While Luke was about to make the emergency call, Luca had already worked out the timeline with Luke.

The police noted down and asked again, "Do you remember what time it was then?"

Luca shook her head. "I don't remember. I was anxious when I found out Mr. Muller had fallen down. Plus, someone intruded into the house earlier. I was scared, so I didn't pay attention to the time at that moment.

"Besides, Mr. Crawford used his own phone to call both the police and the ambulance. So there's no record of the calls on my end."

The police officers exchanged glances with each other.

Luca knew that it would seem suspicious if she claimed to remember.

Only claiming ignorance would seem reasonable. It would not sound like her words were made up.

Presumably, the police were asking such questions to test the credibility of her statement.

However, they were all shrewd individuals and would not be easily tricked.

Luca's statement that she did not know invalidated all their previous preparations.

It was because she was upstairs when the event took place. She did not know what happened that night.

In the surveillance footage provided to them, Luca only came down the stairs twice.

The first time was when she went downstairs in her pajamas.

The second time, she had changed her clothes upstairs before coming down again. Shortly after, the ambulance arrived.

That was why Luca could perfectly explain everything.

It was perfect. The police could not find any flaws in her statement.

"Officers, is there anything else you'd like to ask?" asked Luca.

Both police officers shook their heads, indicating they had no further questions.

"Alright, then please investigate this as soon as possible. Mr. Crawford is busy with work. He can't stay in X City for long. I came here this time just to attend an event, and I'll definitely return with Mr. Crawford.

"If you have any more questions, you may contact the police in A City. I'll be sure to cooperate," added Luca.

"Okay. Thank you for your cooperation, Ms. Craw. Let's end it here. We'll leave now and won't disturb you anymore." The two police officers stood up and left.

Luca smiled as she saw them off. She then stood by the window.

From here, she could see Luke cooperating with the police in the yard. He was giving his statement.

Their minds were in sync. As she looked at him, Luke’s eyes met hers. She smiled, waving her hand.

As Luke was still outside giving his statement, Luca did not step out. After waving to him, she sat down on the couch and turned on the living room TV.

The sound of the television show filled the room. She switched to the news channel, but before she could watch for long, her phone rang.
