Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 913

Bianca saw the bruises on Lacey's face. She indeed looks quite pathetic; Daniel did not hold back at all.

She stood there and faced Lacey and the Crawford family. Even without Luke, she did not feel afraid. "If you want to know what happened, Ms. Riley should know the best."

"Riley lost too much blood, and she's still in a coma! You're the one who harmed her! You'll be the murderer if anything happens to her!" Lacey huffed. Then, she turned to the police officers. "The culprit is over there. Quick, arrest her!"

The police officers looked at each other. It was up to the patriarch of Crawford Manor if they were able to take Bianca away.

Old Master Crawford glanced at the two police officers with a profound gaze and spoke authoritatively. "Lacey, are you sure that you want my granddaughter-in-law arrested?"

Bianca was moved. The old man might not be fond of her, but he was willing to stand up for her.

Lacey was cowed by Old Master Crawford's tone of voice. She stood up and continued wailing in an ugly manner. "I'm here so that I can get an explanation. Don't tell me that you're harboring that little b*tch?

"You're so lucky, Old Master Crawford. You already have four great-grandchildren, while I'm still waiting for my first grandchild. Thanks to Bianca, it's gone, and you're still harboring her. I might as well die…"

Bianca looked at the two police officers. "Is the case on record?"

The police officers nodded. "From the medical examination, the victim's back has signs of physical assault, which caused the miscarriage. It is considered criminal battery, and the police department has opened a case file the moment we received the report."

"Am I a suspect?" Bianca asked.

She remembered seeing Riley sprawled on the floor the night before. If that were the case, someone must have hit her from the back.

The police dared not say that, so they spoke tactfully, "You were the one who discovered the victim. We'll need to record a statement."

Bianca chuckled coldly and looked at Lacey. "I'm not the person you should be looking for. Someone had deliberately injured Riley before I got there. However, I am willing to go to the police station to assist with the investigation."

The police officer breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that. They did not put her in handcuffs but instead escorted her courteously to the car.

Lacey grunted coldly when she saw that. She might seem sorrowful, but she was secretly laughing up her sleeve.

'Once you go in there, don't ever dream of coming out!

'You ought to stay in prison forever, you menace!'

Old Master Crawford stood at the door and watched the police car leave. "Inform Luke," he gave the order.

When Allison heard that, she said, "Luke is busy at work. You shouldn't bother him with such trivial matters…"

"So should I bother you instead?" Old Master Crawford was no fool; he knew how much Allison hated Bianca. "Why aren't you on your granddaughter-in-law's side? Do you think you can be of any help here?"

"Are you blaming me, Father? I'm not the one who caused Riley's miscarriage. Why should I help Bianca when she's in the wrong?" Allison and Lacey exchanged glances at each other. "I think Luke ought to divorce Bianca. She only brings bad luck to Luke and the family. If the media gets wind of this, T Corporation's share prices will fall again!"

"Shut up!" Old Master Crawford could only find Allison's incessant chattering extremely irritating.

Allison spoke no further. No one in Crawford Manor dared to go against Old Master Crawford's wishes.

Seeing that she had achieved what she wanted, Lacey cleared her throat and said, "The police will get to the bottom of this, and I'll be leaving. My poor grandchild, why does he have to leave the world before he gets the chance to see it? Boo hoo hoo…"

She walked out of the door while crying.

She stopped her fake crying after she got into the car. She massaged her face, which carried a vicious expression.

After catching her breath, she took out her phone and gave a call to Melissa.

"The police brought Bianca away. It's up to you now, Melissa. Don't disappoint me." Her reflection in the rear-view mirror showed her vicious gaze.
