Chapter 1025 Didn't Want To Doubt Her
Bianca watched Luke drive away and closed the door of the villa.
She had a hunch that the truth behind the break-in of Crawford Manor would soon be revealed.
"Mommy?" Tommy woke up in her arms.
Seeing that Tommy had woken up, Bianca put him on the ground and touched his little head as she said, "You're up? Do you want to have sfruit?" "Yeah!" Tommy looked around and did not see Luke, so he asked, "Where's Daddy?" "He has something to attend to and has to go back to the company." Bianca took his hand and walked into the living room.
When he heard that, Tommy becnervous and asked, "Will Daddy be busy tomorrow?"
Bianca took out an apple from the refrigerator. She smiled and promised Tommy. "Don't worry, no matter how busy we are tomorrow, we're taking you to the amusement park.”
Tommy clapped his hands happily. He stood by the side while waiting for Bianca to peel and cut the apples into slices. He picked up a slice and said as he ate, "Thank you, Mommy."
Seeing Tommy's lively and cute appearance, Bianca felt grateful that Tommy had not left his bedroom in the middle of the night on the day of the incident.
She sat on the sofa and felt a sense of warmth as she looked at Tommy eating an apple. Suddenly, her phone rang.
Bianca glanced at it and saw that it was a string of unfamiliar numbers.
She answered the call. Hello, who's calling?" "Sister, this is Leia!" Leia's voice cfrom the other end of the phone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBianca was stunned that Leia was calling her.
Leia was smart and did not use her phone to make this call because she was worried that Bianca would not answer it if she saw her name. Instead, she used Brody's phone "Leia..." Bianca asked in a calm tone, "What's the matter?"
Leia would never reach out if she did not need something. Even if she needed something, it would take a lot for her to reach out to Bianca.
Leia said straightforwardly, "Sister, can you accompanyto try on wedding dresses on Monday?" "Monday?" Bianca frowned. She did not expect that Leia would actually want her to get involved. Leia did not seem like the forgiving kind.
"Yes, Monday. I can't deal with the weekend crowd, so I plan to go on Monday, but all of my friends have to work. Bea, please go withand share your opinions. You’ve been married before so you'd know what kind of wedding dress is the most comfortable to wear. I have faith in you." Leia did not give her a chance to refuse and blurted everything out in one breath. "So, it's decided. Monday, Mishal Bridal Shop. I'll see you there."
Before Bianca could reply, the call was cut off.
She massaged her forehead and sighed.
"Mommy, what happened? Are you feeling unwell?" Tommy leaned against her when he saw her react as such and asked with concern.
Bianca shook her head and handed him a slice of apple as she said, "I'm okay. Here, have another slice of apple."
Tommy took it and continued to eat.
The other side.
Luke drove to T Corporation. It was a weekend, so there were no other employees there except the security guards.
Gordan was sitting on the sofa in the lobby of the company with his legs crossed. He was waiting for Luke. When he saw Luke walking over, Gordan stood up and said, "Ugh. You askedto cover as soon as possible, but you're late! What did you find out?" "Let's talk upstairs." Luke walked to the exclusive elevator and pressed the button.
Although there was no one in the lobby, there were security guards patrolling the building all the time. Before they could confirm the details of what had happened, he did not want others to be involved.
Gordan stood up, yawned, and followed him.
In the office.
Gordan sat on the sofa and sighed, "You sure know how to enjoy life. This leather sofa that’s imported from Italy is so comfortable." "When this is done and dusted, I'll get you one." Luke turned on the computer.
Gordan gave a thumbs up and replied, "What a great friend! I'll make sure I cover all grounds with this investigation. I won't accuse a good person, but I won't let a bad person go!" "Let's talk business." Luke sat on the executive chair and looked at his friend. "I went to her mansion today." "What did you find?"
Gordan becmore alert. He was sure that Luke summoned him over because he had discovered something.
"There's only one suspicious place-the study of the mansion, which contains a safe imported from Germany. It's the latest product," Luke said.
Gordan raised his eyebrows. He knew about safes like that. These high- tech products were challenging to even world-renowned thieves, who would not be able to crack the safes before the alarm went off.
The price of a product like this matched its top-notch quality.
Gordan rubbed his hands and said, "Even if I sneak in, I won't be able to crack the code. Can't I get explosives to blow up the safe?"
Luke looked at him with a cold expression.
Gordan trembled and realized that he was being silly. He said cheekily, "Of course not. I'll continue to figure out how to get her dashcam footage."
Luke nodded and said, "Have you thought about how we're going to find the thief?" "The lost antiques have not appeared on the black market. If... If this matter has something to do with your mother and we want to find the thief, I'm afraid you'll have to start with the cash that she took. We need to get our hands on her dashcam, but it’s a bit difficult considering that she doesn't go out,” Gordan frowned and said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe had never seen a rich lady staying at hall day long.
Luke was typing on the keyboard, writing semails. Hearing the distress in Gordan’s voice, Luke said, "You can figure it out yourself." "You're makingjump through hoops for this leather sofa. She's
your mother, do you have any ideas? I would prefer it if I didn’t have to sneak it. The security system in her villa is quite good, I can't do it without backup," Gordan said with his legs crossed in front of him.
Luke said, "You're just lazy."
It was not impossible for Gordan to sneak in, but he had to put in more effort.
If he were a thief, he would probably have done a much better job than the one who broke into Crawford Manor.
"You don't have to be so blunt. She's your mother, I’m sure you can find a way to get her out of the house." Gordan urged Luke. As long as he could get his hands on the dashcam, it was just a matter of tbefore the truth would cto light.
"Okay, I’ll think of a way," Luke said and then picked up his phone to call the workshop.
He mentioned his nand said that Allison's car needed maintenance.
He requested for them to bring the car away for maintenance.
He was the one who bought Allison's car so it was under his name. He also covered the insurance and everything else. As soon as Luke said that, the staff from the workshop went to take care of the matter.
Gordan watched him hang up the phone and clapped his hands. "That's smart! Why didn't you share this good idea earlier on?"
Luke turned around and looked at the scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling windows. He could see the entire A City from here.
"I didn't want to doubt her." His voice was indifferent. If he had not seen the safe, he would not be doing this.
Allison was his biological mother. If she really did such a thing, he would not be able to understand why.
