Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 392

Chapter 392 Something Happened To The Company!

The story went like this.

Two years ago, a subsidiary of T Corporation developed a high-end residential complex called Greenview Regalia. A fire happened in the high- end apartment complex unit owned by a business owner named Mr. Sonny, and his wife and their six-year-old son perished.

The arsonist was quickly arrested and turned out to be a nanny working at the owner's house.

The nanny became greedy and was tempted whenever she saw valuables. At first, she stole Mrs. Sonny's belongings again and again without being noticed. Later, when she stole again, she was caught red-handed.

Mrs. Sonny was hot-tempered and threatened to send her to the police station.

The nanny was afraid that she would be sent to prison, so she set a fire to the place and tried to burn down all the evidence to cover up her crime...

The terrible incident quickly garnered a lot of attention from the media.

Almost all major news networks and mainstream media outlets condemned the nanny's actions and called for her punishment, while public opinion severely criticized the T Corporation subsidiary.

According to unverified reports, the fire trucks had been hindered in the process of putting out the fire. The path was restricted by illegal green belts, and the building was too high. Moreover, there were serious problems in the building's fire prevention facilities and property management which resulted in the firefighters not being able to reach the mother and child in time, which directly led to their deaths.

If the incident was dealt with promptly at the beginning, it could be suppressed without much fuss with T Corporation's influence and network of connections.

Little did they know, the manager of the subsidiary company was afraid of being implicated. They thought that they could handle the matter by themselves, so they made their own press release and postponed the report to the head office. However, it was a futile effort to stop the scandal, and every broadcasting media ended up reporting the incident.

The matter was in the public interest, and so the news spread very quickly. It became trending online, and in the end, the situation spread beyond their control.

After the incident happened, countless self-righteous netizens on Mr. Sonny's side ganged up against T Corporation.

The other house owners of Greenview Regalia began to panic. Everyone was worried about the safety measures in the apartment. In the news, requests for refunds and owners' rights rallies could be seen from time to time.

T Corporation's stock prices had been severely affected and fell sharply...

At midnight, Bianca came out of the bathroom after a shower and found that the light in the study was still on.

Luke was still busy with work.

She sighed and felt very sorry for him.

Her design work was enough to give her a headache. Luke, on the other hand, ran a multinational company, which was already exhausting by itself, but now had the added stress of the arson incident.

Bianca understood his current mood.

That man did not get an easy start in his life. As the child born out of wedlock in the Crawford family, his life had been unfortunate.

Even though his parents were alive, they sent him to an orphanage, and he suffered from depression.

When he grew up and was taken back to Crawford Manor, he had to deal with the multiple scandals in the family. Through his own strength, he transformed a company on the verge of bankruptcy to its current state in just a few years. Nobody knew what hardships he had to endure to achieve it.

Before Bianca knew him, she remembered reading a report about him in a financial magazine that introduced some of the country's most impressive revivals. T Corporation was ranked first.

At that time, Luke was not even thirty years old yet, but he had become one of the richest people on the continent.

Bianca looked at Luke's back broken-heartedly and walked to the living room. She poured a glass of milk for Luke and planned to bring it to him in the study.
