Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 439

Chapter 439 Found A Secret To Blackmail Luke!

In Jack's spacious study was a ten-tier redwood bookshelf that covered an entire wall.

Rows of books were tidily arranged on it.

Leia sneaked into the study like a thief and quickly locked the door. She felt a little dizzy when she looked at the close to ten thousand books on the shelf.

She knew that her father would lock important documents in a safe, but she did not know where the safe was.

Leia took off her high heels, rolled up her sleeves, and tiptoed over the room to search for the safe.

She looked through the shelf, the drawers, under the couch, and even the small attic in the room.

Half an hour later, Leia's head was drenched in sweat, but she did not manage to find the safe.

Dejectedly, she punched the shelf. She struck something, and with a click, she saw the top row of the bookshelf revolve.

The silvery-white safe was embedded in a mechanism on the top shelf.

Her heart started to beat fast. She nimbly climbed on the ladder and reached the top shelf and tried to open the safe, but she needed to input a passcode!

Her first attempt was to enter her adoptive mother's birthday, seeing how much Jack loved Queenie.

It was the wrong passcode.

Leia entered her birthday, and it was wrong as well.

The red lights that flashed on the safe told Leia that she only had one attempt left. If she got it wrong again, the safe would be locked out.

Leia struggled internally. Should she try again?

It would be great if she guessed correctly, but if she guessed wrong, her adoptive father would discover that she had tampered with the safe. However, if she did not make her move, would she ever get another chance?

Just when she hesitated, her phone started to ring again.

She violently jerked and nearly fell off the ladder.

She took a few deep breaths to calm herself down, then answered the call. "Hello, Mom?" She tried to make herself sound as calm as possible.

"It's been so long, Leia. Why aren't you here yet?" Queenie asked.

"I'm stuck in a jam, Mom. There seems to be an accident on Flue Road, and the police are clearing up the scene... Don't worry, how is Grandpa's condition?" Leia pretended to be concerned as she told a lie.

Queenie became anxious. "There's an accident at Flue Road? Don't take that road, Leia. It'll be too dangerous, and I'd rather you take a longer route. Take the City Beltway, and you should be careful when you drive at night. Your Grandpa is fine, and you don't have to worry. I won't disturb your driving, and I'll talk to you later. See you soon."

After ending the call, Leia stared at the safe and decided to take the gamble.

She wanted to enter her father's birthday, but she thought of something and entered a different string of numbers.

Just when she thought that all was in vain, the safe door opened curiously with a click.

Leia was stunned. The numbers she entered were Queenie's birth daughter's birthday. She did not expect...

She was once again overcome by hatred and anger.
