Chapter 311
Chapter 311 Luke Crawford, A Cunning Wolf!
The boss looked as intelligent and noble as usual. A single glance from him could instantly change how people treated him.
Jason walked over with a respectful expression on his face and handed a thick stack of documents to Luke. "I've almost completed everything that you've asked of me, Mr. Crawford. Among those who had abducted Bianca's grandfather, one of them, going by the name of Dawson Lynch, remains in A City. Perhaps he thought that the best place to hide is in plain sight. Dawson bought himself a fake identity and managed to stay hidden for so long. However, he is a habitual gambler, and our men found him at a casino a few days ago. Now that we have Dawson in our hands, we can reopen the case of Bianca's grandfather's abduction. We can use Dawson to accuse Xavier of being the mastermind instead of Yvonne. That way, he'll be locked away for a long time. Also, I've managed to uncover a lot of evidence of Xavier's crimes over the past few years..." "Thank you for your hard work." Luke patted Jason's shoulder. His dark irises were sparkling.
Bianca received a call from Xavier right after she got off work.
She had never been in contact with Xavier ever since Luke had beaten him up.
When she saw his name on her phone screen, memories of being nearly violated surfaced in her mind again.
Bianca did not want to answer the call. However, when she thought that she would have to be in contact with him so that they could successfully divorce, she braced herself and answered the call.
"Yes?" "Let's meet and talk about the divorce. Come alone," Xavier said.
Bianca was full of doubt.
She did not believe that Xavier had called her to meet just so that they could discuss the divorce.
That was a lesson she had learned the hard way. She would not be so easily convinced to meet him alone.
"If you don’t come, then you can forget about the divorce. I’ll see you at Clearwater Tea Room," Xavier said coldly.
Then, he ended the call.
Bianca was in a daze as she looked at her phone. She shuddered uncontrollably when she was reminded of Xavier's despicable face.
She thought that it would be best for her to not ever meet that man again until they divorced.
Bianca decided that she should ignore his request. After thinking about it for a moment, she gave Luke a call.
After Xavier ended the call, he sped on the road and arrived at Clearwater Tea Room.
He reserved an elegant and quiet private room so that he could talk with Bianca.
Furthermore, he had not seen her for a long time and had missed her.
The article from JK Media had made him worried.
He did not expect that Luke would divulge the fact that Bianca was Lanie and Rainie's birth mother. He also knew that Gus was arrested; all his posts on Xeddit were removed without leaving a trace.
He was aggrieved.
Bianca had treated him like trash, but he could not let her go.
It was as though he was addicted to her.
Perhaps the initial impression when he met her five years ago had caused all the ensuing grievances.
He was not going to let her go, no matter how painful it might be...

Time slowly passed.
The ashtray in front of Xavier was piled with cigarette butts, but Bianca was nowhere to be seen.
He was getting impatient. Just when he took out his phone and prepared to call Bianca, the door suddenly opened, and Luke stepped in dominatingly.
Luke sat down elegantly on a chair, in front of Xavier's sullen gaze.
It was not the first time that the two equally dominating men had sat in front of each other. However, their mental defenses were at full force, as though the other party would attack them at any time!
"Why are you here?" Xavier said unhappily.
He could still feel some pain from his broken ribs.
I've invited Bianca to come, but why is Luke here?
'Well done, Bianca. Do you think that I can't do anything to you because Luke is on your side?'
Luke took out an envelope from a folder and pushed it toward Xavier." Here, a present for you."
Xavier nonchalantly took it. He opened the envelope and saw a CD and a thick stack of documents inside.
He browsed through several documents. His eyes opened wider and wider, and his gaze gradually became fearful.
Xavier's palm slammed heavily on the envelope. His handsome face was taut from anger and fear. "What's the meaning of this, Luke Crawford?"
Luke poured a cup of tea for himself. "It's easy. I hope that you can divorce Bianca."
At that moment, Xavier wanted to rip all the things in the envelope into shreds!
He leaned back on the chair and pretended to be calm. "Do you think that you can threaten me with that? They all happened in the past, and there's not enough incriminating evidence. What can you possibly do to me? Don't think that I can't do anything because you've swayed the public opinion by using JK Media... My marriage with Bianca is entirely legal. If you force me into a corner, I'd rather take you down with me!"
Xavier might have sounded defiant, but he was feeling a chill course down his spine.
Luke had uncovered many of his previous crimes, including a fatal hit-and- run car accident, criminal possession of firearms, money laundering, and so on. He thought that he had covered all his tracks, and even if he did not, his father would clean up the mess for him.
That was why he had escaped justice for so long. The only time he was caught when he was arrested in public five years ago. With so many witnesses, he could not deny his wrongdoing, and that was why he went to prison.
Xavier did not expect that Luke had uncovered so many crimes he had committed from so many years ago.
Those crimes should have been perfectly buried.
Now that they were brought up again, Xavier not only felt apprehension but also surprised by the extent of Luke's influence!
The man might look gentle and tame, but he was actually like a cunning wolf, observing you from a dark corner, then pouncing on you and snapping your throat when you least expected it!
