Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 910

Lacey was beginning to waver.

Melissa was not done yet. She shook Lacey's arm and said, "Aunt Lacey, if you like children, I'll give you one once Xavier comes to his senses and marries me. You don't need Riley's baby. Who knows if you're only raising a child for someone else?"

Lacey became wholly convinced. "Alright, but that b*tch is already a few months into her pregnancy. We can't afford to wait if we want to get rid of it."

Melissa hurriedly added, "I've asked the doctor that examined her. He said that the baby isn't firmly embedded in the placenta, and she'll have to be careful. Otherwise…"

She pretended to hesitate.

"Go on, Melissa! Otherwise what?" Lacey was anxious when she considered that the child in Riley's womb might not be Xavier's.

"Otherwise, if she bumps into something, she might easily lose it." Melissa let go of her hand. Now that she had gotten Lacey on her side, it was time that the little b*tch left Xavier.

'Do you think that you're special just because of the baby? In your dreams!'

"Hmm, if that's the case…" Lacey narrowed her gaze and sank into thought.

Melissa leaned close to her ear and told Lacey about her plan.

Lacey immediately agreed with it, though she hesitated. "If we do that, it'll be bad if Xavier finds out."

Melissa grimaced menacingly. "It'll be fine as long as he doesn't know about it. Not only will he not know about it, but no one else in the world will. There's a woman you hate in attendance at today's banquet, right?"

Melissa was talking about Bianca.

Bianca was the cause of the Tanners' decline.

Lacey nodded in assent. It would be great if she could kill two birds with one stone.

Melissa was delighted. After tonight, she would be the one standing next to Xavier.

Daniel sat in the study to catch his breath. When he felt a lot better, he went out of the room.

Melissa thought of doing something and told Lacey that she had to leave for a while.

Xavier's bedroom was next to the study.

Melissa sneaked into the study and pressed her ear against the wall to hear what was going on in the bedroom.

The walls of the mansion were not particularly thick, but the banquet guests were noisy outside, and Melissa could not hear anything.

She bit her fingernails, wondering if she should knock on the door to disturb them.

However, she considered that Xavier had a rotten temper.

She grunted coldly. "I'll deal with you later, you little b*tch."

She turned around and glanced at the messy desk. As far as she knew, her uncle usually kept it well-organized.

However, Melissa was not going to take the initiative to tidy it. When she was about to leave, she noticed a piece of paper curled up under the desk.

Only a corner was seen. It was by pure chance that she noticed it.

Melissa pulled it out. When she glanced at it, she was shocked.

That piece of paper was one part of the document that Luke had given Daniel.

"Did Xavier…" Melissa could not believe it.

Her phone began to ring. Instead of returning the piece of paper to where she found it, she instinctively stashed it in her handbag.

The call was from Lacey. She stammered, still in shock, "Yes, Aunt Lacey?"

"Where are you? The banquet is about to begin. Don't be late. I've already saved a spot for you," Lacey said.

"Alright, I'll come now," Melissa said as she rushed out of the study.
