Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 912

The servant did not move.

She was caught between Lacey and Luke and did not know what to do.

The ambulance arrived shortly. Before Xavier carried Riley downstairs, he said, "Bianca isn't like that, Mom. The truth will be revealed once Riley wakes up."

Lacey was disappointed in her son. Why would he still be speaking up for Bianca when he was about to lose his child?

Her chest heaved with anger.

Seeing that the servant did not act, she took out her phone. "If you're not going to call the police, I will!"

Luke grasped her hand tightly and said sinisterly, "Think twice before you act, Mrs. Tanner."

Lacey was at the height of her anger. She wanted to pull her hand away, but she realized that she could not move her hand at all. The pain from her wrist caused her to tremble. "What are you doing? Are you threatening me?"

Bianca put her hands on Luke. "The truth will prevail. If you'd like to call the police, Mrs. Tanner, then please go ahead. However, if Ms. Riley wakes up and proves that I am innocent, I think you owe me an apology."

"You…" Lacey's mind was racing.

No one should have seen Melissa commit the deed. How confident was she that she could pin it on Bianca?

The three people were caught in a standoff when Daniel came over. "What are you doing, you woman?"

Lacey immediately asked him for help. "Come and help me, Daniel. Bianca pushed Riley and doesn't admit it. I want to call the police."

Daniel was still worrying over Luke's threat. It was very stupid for Lacey to offend Luke.

"What's gotten into your head? Did you see it yourself?" He roared, then turned to apologize to Luke. "Your Aunt Lacey doesn't mean it, Luke. Can you forgive her?"

Luke loosened his grip and said coldly, "Please go ahead if you'd like to involve the police, Mrs. Tanner. There's something odd about this incident, and the police should conduct a thorough investigation."

"Yes, I trust the police to do a good job," Bianca also said.

Daniel's back was already drenched in a cold sweat. He knew the implication in Luke's words.

If the police came to investigate, what If Luke told them about what Xavier had done?

Seeing that Lacey was about to dial 911, he hurriedly snatched the phone and said, "This isn't the time to get the police involved. We should follow Riley to the hospital to see that she is safe."

Xavier was only a couple of years younger than Luke. His parents were worried that he was not married yet. Daniel was not very satisfied with Riley's status, but he had been anticipating the child to be born.

Lacey did not know why Daniel was behaving like that; she thought that he was afraid of Luke. "Don't tell me that you're afraid of him, you coward! I want Bianca to spend the night in the lock-up!" She yelled.

Daniel delivered a heavy slap on Lacey's face. The phone fell on the floor and the screen shattered.

"How dare you slap me!" Lacey glared at Daniel and ground her teeth. "Are you crazy, Daniel Tanner? I've never been hit all my life! Very well. Looks like Bianca has managed to seduce you as well. I'll kill you today!"

The Tanner residence instantly descended into chaos.

Lacey grabbed a vase and hurled it at Daniel.

"You crazy woman!" Daniel did not back down.

"Sir, Madam, please stop fighting." The servants tried to break up the fight.

Luke watched all that impassively. He would make Lacey pay for what she said.

"Let's go home, Luke." Bianca was not in the mood to watch the farce.

"Mm." Luke was not planning to be the mediator. He hugged her waist and prepared to leave.

While they were walking out, Bianca suddenly said, "Luke, I think that Mrs. Tanner will still call the police."

The entire incident was too suspicious. Riley was probably an innocent pawn in Lacey's scheme.
