Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 922

Bianca quickly blocked Maxine's hand and said seriously, "We're in the police station now. Are you sure you want to slap her and get the lawyer to bail you out again?"

Maxine took her hand back in anger, and her eyes were wide open in anger. "Don't be so smug, Bianca Rayne. All you have is Luke helping you, but you keep on courting trouble for him. Sooner or later, Luke will tire of you, and your good life will come to an end!"

Bianca remained calm despite the instigation. She knew very well what Luke thought of her.

It did not matter what other people said.

Her clear eyes remained cold as she replied impassively, "I'll enjoy my good life for now, then. Also, Ms. Douglas, you're not that close with my husband, and it's more appropriate that you address him as 'Mr. Crawford.'"

Sue could not help but smile. Bianca seemed gentle and pliant, but she had a sharp tongue.

Seeing that Maxine's face had already turned beet-red, Sue added, "Some shameless women covet other women's husbands and think that it's a glamorous thing. Do they think that they can be closer to the man if she addresses him by his first name? How shameless. Looks like the filthy lock-up cell hasn't taught her a lesson yet."

The police officer, tired of Maxine's torment, added, "Our cells are very hygienic."

"Y… You!" Maxine was almost losing her mind from anger. She turned her head and looked at the lawyer.

The lawyer understood what she wanted. He walked up to Maxine and smelled the weird smell that Sue was talking about, though he reminded her, "Ms. Douglas, I can't do anything about it if they didn't name any names."

Maxine stomped her foot. Since she could not do anything about Bianca, she could only leave.

She noticed the reporters waiting at the entrance and reflexively flinched. They thought that they were there to report on her.

She had a superior social status, and she could not lose her dignity in front of the media.

The lawyer followed her out and told her, "They're not here to report about you, Ms. Douglas?"

Maxine narrowed her eyes. She noticed that the reporters did not react when they saw her. After all, she was not as famous in A City. If not for Bianca, her name would not have appeared in the newspapers.

"Why are they here?" She asked curiously. The crowd of reporters was not very big, nor was it very small.

"You don't know it because you've been detained. Mrs. Crawford is in the news lately, and she's the focus of attention of the entire A City."

After the lawyer explained the incident to her, she reached out. "Bianca Rayne? Lend me your phone."

Her phone was already out of battery, and she had to borrow the lawyer's phone.

The lawyer took out his phone, unlocked it, and handed it to Maxine.

Maxine entered Bianca's name in the search bar, and many news articles popped out.

She briefly browsed through all of them, and a sinister smile appeared on her face. "Do they know that Bianca is inside?"

"It looks like they don't," the lawyer guessed. "There would have been more reporters if they knew that Bianca Rayne was here. She must have come in through the side entrance."

Maxine handed the phone back to the lawyer and said smugly. "I think that they're working quite hard to get the next story. How about you go and help them?"

"Well…" The lawyer did not want to court trouble.

"I've heard that the contract between your firm and my dad's company is almost expiring. My dad hasn't been too satisfied with your performance. I can perhaps try and convince my father to extend the contract." Maxine bunched her hair together with her hand. She was disgusted by the amount of grime on her hand and wiped it away with a napkin.

"I'll be glad to help my friends in the media." The lawyer walked over.
