Chapter 921
Chapter 921 Luke Should Have a Way
Bianca went into the police station from the side entrance and met Sue.
"Are you okay, Bianca?" Sue looked at her worriedly.
Bianca shook her head and took off her mask. "I'm fine. There were no reporters at the side entrance. Where should I sign?" "Over here..." Sue paused for a while. "But I think you'll need to read the case report carefully."
Bianca sat on a chair, and a police officer handed her the case report. "If there are no problems, please affix your signature on the last page of the report." "Mm." She took the report, read it, and understood why Sue said that.
The security guard of the building had retracted his previous statement. He said that the person who had instructed him was not Maxine but rather Moxine, a woman with a similar name.
The woman named Moxine had turned herself in. She was the general manager of Central Construction LLC, and she had bribed the security guard to install the virus because Bianca's company had snatched her clients.
Everything sounded as though it made sense, but Bianca frowned.
"Central Construction?" She and Sue exchanged glances. 'I've never heard of them before."
She had been in contact with many construction companies while in charge of T Corporation, but she had never heard of Central Construction before.
"The company does exist, and they have been operational two years before our company, but they are not in A City," Sue replied. She had searched the Intefor information about the company while
waiting for Bianca to arrive.
Bianca did not ask any more questions. She did not show any expression on her face either.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMaxine's family was influential. It was too easy to find someone to take the fall for her.
She signed on the case report, indicating that she accepted the conclusion. The person named in the report would be punished, but Maxine Douglas, the real culprit, would walk free.
The police officer took the report from her. "Please wait for a moment while we stamp the report."
Bianca waited together with Sue.
"So, that's it?" Sue remained indignant. Central Construction was not in A City, and they only serviced local clients. How could Bianca's company have snatched their clients?
"The security guard's statement was our strongest piece of evidence, but he retracted it. There's nothing else we can do," Bianca explained.
"Can Mr. Crawford do anything?" Sue knew that Maxine's family must have pulled sstrings. She did not wish for Maxine to go free after having done such serious damage to their company.
Bianca knew that Luke would have a solution, but she did not want to bother him.
T Corporation was still recovering from the Galleria tragedy. She did not want Luke to take on Maxine's family in the Capital, 1 "Luke has already done a lot for us, and I don't want to trouble him further. The culprit should have received enough punishment for what she did," Bianca said.
The investigation had lasted for quite a while. In that period, Luke had pressured the police station so that Maxine could not be bailed. She had been detained in a lock-up cell ever since she was arrested.
That should be enough to teach her a lesson.
Sue was silent for a while before patting Bianca's shoulder. "You're too kind, Bianca. That's why those people dare to bully you."
She was talking about the virus attack, as well as the incident that had been brewing on the Internet.
Bianca smiled helplessly. She wished for a normal life where she only had to worry about money. Now that she was with Luke, she did not have to worry about money, but there were more difficult things to worry about.
However, with him beside her, she had nothing to fear.
The police officer handed her the stamped case report and said, "The case is considered closed, and the culprit will receive their punishment." "Ahem, Officer, I'd like to make a report!" Maxine shrieked. She and her lawyer were coming out of the police station when she saw Bianca.
She had informed her family members the moment she was brought to the lock-up.
Her father was on a business trip overseas and could not directly help her. Instead, he hired a lawyer for her.
The lawyer arrived at the police station but was unable to bail Maxine out.
That was why she had been detained there.
The treatment she received was just like any other normal citizen, even though the lawyer tried to help her.
The lawyer told her that someone had been applying pressure to the police officers, and she thought that the person was Bianca.
Bianca and Sue turned to look at Maxine.
She seemed quite pathetic after spending many days in the lock-up. She was thinner, and her chestnut hair was in clumps and had lost its original luster. Her face seemed haggard without the use of beauty creams.
The police officers frowned after hearing those words. Everyone in the police station knew that Maxine was very troublesome.
They wanted her out of the lock-up, but their superior did not allow them to set her free, and there was nothing they could do about it other than listening to her and her lawyer's incessant complaints.
"What would you like to report, Ms. Douglas?" The police officer said courteously.
"I want to sue her!" Maxine pointed a finger at Bianca. "She's the one who framedand caused me unnecessary suffering!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe wanted Bianca to be locked up too.
"Well..." The police officer did not know what to say. He knew that Maxine was a graduate from overseas, so why would she be so stupid to demand that?
"The security guard framed you, Ms. Douglas. It has nothing to do with me," Bianca reminded her.
"You!" Maxine wanted to smash Bianca's teeth.
"If you believe that this incident has caused you harm and distress, you can tell your lawyer to sue the security guard so that you'll receive the compensation you deserve."
The police officer cleared his throat and said, "That's right. We conduct our investigation based on the statement provided by the security guard. Feel free to let your lawyer know if you have any grievances so that you can demand further action against the security guard."
Maxine was not appeased seeing how Bianca had brushed away all responsibility. She looked at her lawyer and asked, "Can't I sue her?"
The lawyer could only advise her from a professional standpoint. "It's like this, Ms. Douglas..." "Just tell me yes or no!" Maxine was not interested in his explanation.
The lawyer pushed his glasses and gave her a curt answer. "No."
Bianca was not guilty in the first place. Even if she was the one who had caused Maxine to be locked up for so long, everything that the police had done was according to procedure.
It was hard to pin the blon Bianca.
Maxine's chest heaved with anger as she walked toward Bianca.
Bianca and Sue smelled something strange originating from Maxine's body.
Sue instantly took Bianca's hand and stepped backward. "Careful, Bianca, she smells weird."
Sue's voice was soft, but Maxine had heard that clearly. Maxine had not used her expensive beauty care products in that period, and the only thing that she could use to clean her sensitive skin was bar soap. That was why she smelled weird.
She instantly turned red with anger and lifted her hand, intending to slap Sue. "What are you saying, you b*tch?"
