Chapter 1149 Luck Was on Her Side


    The next day, news about Luke’s scandal appeared on all major papers in A City.


    There were only two photos, but the reporter had whipped up a fancy story, so the entire A City was


    talking about it.


    Old Master Crawford read about the news. His face was ashen and grim as he read the article in the


    newspaper.


    He knew that Luke had no rtion to the woman in the article, but he was unhappy to see the reporter


    deliberately tarnishing his grandson''s reputation of being a loyal husband.


    "Mr. Griffin." The old man mmed the newspaper angrily on the table. "Do something for me." "Yes,


    Old Master Crawford," the butler said courteously.


    "Find the reporter of this article for me. You know what to do next." Old Master Crawford narrowed his


    gaze. There was a hint of viciousness in his clouded eyes.


    He had retired many years ago, but he was still as merciless and assertive as ever.


    "Yes." The butler nodded and left.


    Bianca happened to be walking down the stairs when the butler was talking over the phone. She stood


    there to listen and found out that he was talking about the scandal.


    ''Oh no...1


    Bianca was surprised that Old Master Crawford wanted to hunt the reporter down.


    She felt a little flustered.


    After the butler ended the call, he turned around and noticed Bianca standing there. He was quite


    surprised that Bianca woke up so early, but he soonposed himself and smiled at her. "You''re up


    early today, Madam.


    Would you like to have breakfast?" "No. I heard you making a phone call earlier. Did something


    happen?" Bianca asked. She had woken up early today because the reporter had promised her that


    the article would be published in the newspapers today.


    "Yes, something happened." The butler hesitated.


    "What is it?" Bianca asked.


    "It''s nothing major. Don''t worry, Madam, Old Master Crawford will take care of it." The butler did not tell


    her because he did not want her to worry.


    Bianca frowned. "Does it have something to do with Luke or me?" "A certain photo was published in


    the papers today, and the article was filled with lies. Don''t worry. Old Master Crawford will take care of


    it." The butler thought that he would not be able to hide the news from her forever, so he might as well


    tell her.


    Bianca frowned even harder. She picked up her phone and pretended to search for the news article.


    "Madam..." The butler was worried that the shock might cause her to faint again.


    Tm fine." Bianca pretended to hold her breath as she read from her phone intently.


    The butler became increasingly worried as he noticed that Bianca''s face was turning pale.


    Bianca sat down on the couch. She had read the article when she got out of bed, but she pretended to


    read it carefully in case the butler suspected her.


    After reading the article, she asked, "What does Grandpa n to do?” "Old Master Crawford wants to


    search for the reporter''s whereabouts," the butler replied.


    Bianca held her forehead with one hand. "Mm, I see. Lies like these will affect Luke''s reputation. You


    should act on it faster." "Yes." The butler nodded and went to the dining hall.


    She watched the butler disappear from view and quickly stood up once more, holding her phone tightly.


    There was something else she had to do so that Old Master Crawford could not find the reporter.


    The reporter might have signed a contract with her, but she had expected that someone as


    untrustworthy as him would spill the beans when interrogated.


    She went up the stairs with a pale face. On the second floor, she bumped into Luke, who hade out


    of the study.


    "You''re awake, Luke." Biancaposed herself and smiled at him.


    "Mm." Luke noticed that her face was pale. "Why are you awake so early?" He had never shown such


    concern to her before.


    "I slept earlyst night, so I woke up early today." Bianca smoothened her long hair. It was a good


    opportunity to talk to Luke, but she had more important things to do. She did not want Old Master


    Crawford''s subordinates to find the reporter before she did.


    Old Master Crawford might be elderly, but he was the one who founded T Corporation, and he was as


    sharp as ever.


    "Have you had breakfast?" Luke asked.


    "Not yet. I don''t think I''m eating now. I feel a little sleepy, so I might want to nap for a little longer,''


    Bianca said, hurriedly walked past Luke, went into the bedroom, and closed the door.


    Luke shot a nce at her. He did not think that she was acting strangely.


    After Bianca went into the bedroom, she ced her ear behind the door. After making sure that Luke


    was gone, she locked the door and made a phone call.


    "Do something for me," she said.


    "What is it?" A man spoke on the other end of the call.


    "Help me hide some. I don''t want the Crawfords to find him," Bianca said. She was talking to another


    person from the Ind of Despair who was stationed in A City. If she needed help with anything


    regarding Luke, she could always ask him.


    "Reason?" the man asked.


    "I have to eliminate a rival. Once that woman stays clear of Luke, he''ll pay attention to me," Bianca said


    softly.


    "No problem. Give me his information," the man said.


    "Also, don’t tell Boss about this. It''ll be hard for both of us to exin to him if he finds out about it,"


    Bianca said.


    She was not sure if Ivana was Abel''s minion, so she would rather hide that from Abel for now.


    If Ivana were really from the Ind of Despair, Bianca would be in serious trouble if Abel found out that


    Ivana was getting closer to Luke!


    "Mm." The man hung up.


    After that, Bianca called the reporter and told him to continue reporting on the scandal. She also


    promised him that someone would hide him in a safe ce.


    The reporter did not agree to it at first, but he became convinced after Bianca gave him more money.


    After giving the reporter''s information to the man, Bianca smiled.


    No matter how efficient Old Master Crawford''s subordinates might be, they would not be able to catch


    up with her n. She realized that the reporter''s location was not far away from the man.


    Even luck was on her side!


    Bianca felt extremely pleased with herself as shey on the bed. The scene downstairs must be


    chaotic at the moment, and she knew better than to ce herself in Old Master Crawford''s line of fire.


    She was happy about how things were going, so she did not want to put up a worried face in front of


    the other people in the household.


    Luke went to the dining hall downstairs to have breakfast.


    Old Master Crawford was sitting on a chair with a stern expression.


    "Grandfather," Luke greeted him and sat next to him.

    "Look at the news." Old Master Crawford handed the newspaper to him. He did not expect the article to


    appear today because there was no news about it the day before.
