Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 920

Bianca placed a lot of food products in her shopping cart.

Sean followed closely behind her. He was fully aware of their surroundings.

Bianca sighed. She thought that Sean would attract more attention to her. Fortunately, it was quite late in the morning, and there were not that many people in the supermarket.

She pushed the shopping cart to Sean. "Can you help me with the shopping cart, Mr. Zander?"

"Yes, Madam." Sean continued to push it.

Bianca picked up some poultry and bought some fruits for the children.

After piling the shopping cart with food, she said to Sean, "Let's go to the checkout counter, Mr. Zander."

"Yes, Madam." Sean pushed the shopping cart to the checkout counter.

There were not many counters that were open at that hour. Several people were queuing at each of those counters.

Bianca randomly stood in line at one of the counters.

Sean glanced at the queue in front of them. Those people had loaded shopping carts with them. "Madam, this supermarket belongs to Mr. Holston. Should I inform him?" He whispered.

Bianca shook her head. "Let's wait in line. It won't take long."

Sean nodded and patiently waited in line.

In front of them were two middle-aged women gossiping.

"Have you heard the news about the T Corporation CEO and his wife?" One of the women asked.

"It's the talk of the town now. Why wouldn't I know about it?" The other woman replied.

Bianca frowned. She did not expect that people would be talking about her even in the supermarket.

She lowered the brim of her hat.

"What a wicked woman. Not only she harmed that pregnant woman, but she also secreted her away. I pity the Tanners. They lost their baby, and the baby's mother is nowhere to be found too."

"Isn't that so? I've read an article saying that the woman wasn't hidden but murdered. To think that this could happen in modern times. How scary!" The woman said while drawing a line across her neck.

Bianca frowned even harder. How did the rumors evolve to become like that?

They were saying that she killed Riley!

Bianca turned her head to look at Sean. He seemed to be very angry and wanted to argue with the women.

However, he knew that he had to keep Bianca's identity a secret.

"Why hasn't the police arrested her yet? Murder is a serious crime!"

"That's because T Corporation is rich and influential. The police might be harboring her too! They say that they protect all citizens, but I'm guessing only the rich ones," the woman said profoundly.

"So is she getting off the hook just like that? I've heard that the Tanners are quite influential too. Are they going to let their daughter-in-law go missing without doing anything?"

"Haven't you heard? The pregnant woman is only the Tanner son's mistress, and they haven't registered their marriage yet. The Tanners might be rich and influential, but they're nowhere near as influential as the Crawfords. They reported it to the police, but they can't do anything more than that."

While listening to the gossip, Bianca took out her phone and browsed a news website.

The website reported about Riley's disappearance.

Under the article were the readers' comments. Many people were guessing that Bianca had secretly killed Riley.

Bianca was helpless. The news article was making wild speculations instead of reporting based on facts, but it sounded very convincing.
