Chapter 472
Chapter 472 If Anyone Dares to Overstep Luke's Boundaries!
Luke stopped walking. He turned around, and his gaze became colder. "Are you telling the truth?'
He waved his hand, and the bodyguards let go of Charmaine.
She was on the verge of tears.
She loved to play, but only if both parties were consenting. Those instruments might be fun and excitingwhile making out, but now, it seemed as though the bodyguards were going to use them to kill her. Thathad made her fear for her life.
She slumped onto the floor and begged him. "I was wrong, Mr. Crawford. Forgive me! I don't have anygrudge against Bianca Rayne. I only did that because Leia threatened me. She told me that if I don't dowhat she says, she'll make sure that I cant survive in A City. I had no other choice! I swear that I won'tdo it again. Please forgive me..."
Luke's tall body towered over Charmaine. His figure was as exquisite as a sculpture, but Charmainewas not in the mood to appreciate it. She thought that the man was too scary.
"What is inside the CD that caused Bianca to reject the proposal?" Luke asked.
Charmaine shot a glance at the four bodyguards around her. Luke immediately understood what shemeant, and he gave them a discreet signal.
The bodyguards left the room and closed the door behind them.
"Now you can speak," Luke told Charmaine to continue.
Charmaine did not keep any secrets. She told him what she knew. "Mr.
Crawford, Leia has a crush on you ever since she met you. She knows that you don't love her and thatyou're already a couple with Ms. Rayne, but she wants to marry you no matter what. Don't you knowhow pretentious that woman is? She tried to look pure and innocent, but she's underhanded andsinister. She makes me want to throw up every time I see her, and she has insulted Ms. Rayne in frontof me many times. Also, she said that she'd break up the two of you no matter what it takes...”novelbin
Charmaine told Luke about every misdeed that Leia did.
She did not like Leia. After all, no one would be willing to become another woman's lapdog.
When Charmaine saw that Luke looked more and more unpleasant by the moment, she continued tospin the story. "A few days ago, Leia somehow got a CD that has incriminating evidence of youconducting a bribe...
"Leia asked me to hand the CD to Ms. Rayne and threaten her to leave you so that you will beunharmed.
"If not that Leia threatened to drive me out of A City if I don't listen to what she says, I wouldn't havedared to threaten Ms. Rayne!"
Luke remained calm after listening to what Charmaine had to say, but his gaze turned darker anddarker!
’I see.
’So that’s why Bianca rejected my proposal at the last moment.’
After receiving the information he wanted, Luke stepped out of the room in large strides.
The bodyguards in black followed behind him.
Charmaine slumped on the floor.
She wiped the sweat off her forehead and heaved a sigh of relief after seeing that she was safe.
When she suddenly remembered that she had told Luke about the CD, she started to tremble again.
If Leia found out that Charmaine had told Luke the secret, she would kill her.
Charmaine knew better than anyone that Leia had a wicked heart under that pure exterior.
What should she do?
Charmaine thought hard. She remembered that her latest sugar daddy was a middle-aged tycoon. Hedid not hold any political power, and he was ugly and short, but he was filthy rich.
The man had held her hand and said that he would bring her for a vacation in the Maldives. Shedecided to go with him there and then; perhaps she would be able to get a credit card or some luxurygoods from him too.
Hiding overseas for a few days would be the best choice!
At the car, Jason opened the back seat door for Luke.
The man sat inside, and Jason sat on the driver's seat.
Jason glanced at his cold-faced boss. He did not start the engine but instead handed a tablet computerto Luke. "Mr. Crawford, an article that defames Ms. Rayne's reputation has appeared on the Internet,and many influencers on all the social media platforms are sharing it. I believe that someone isdeliberately doing this to ruin Ms. Rayne's reputation, but I don't know if it's from an individual or agroup."
Luke tapped on the screen and browsed through the article. The more he read, the gloomier he looked.
After he finished the article, he grunted. "Amateur tactics! Find the true identity of that Rita, and ban allaccounts that share the article!"
Jason's hands on the steering wheel paused for a while. He hesitated before saying, "Mr. Crawford,there was a meeting among the higher-ups recently about the control major corporations exerted overthe media, and T Corporation is one of their surveillance targets. The higher-ups warned us that weshould keep a low profile. If we ban all the accounts that share the article, people would think that weare the ones doing that behind the scenes. If that happens, our competitors will have more dirt on us. Ithink..."
Luke tossed the tablet away, closed his eyes, and said harshly, "Even individual accounts have to obeythe law. If they break the law, the authorities will also take action against them. If they dare to spreadunfounded rumors, it means that they are ready to bear the consequences. Just follow what I say, Mr.Doyle. If anything happens, I'll bear all the responsibility!”
Jason could only shake his head helplessly.
His boss had always been wise and careful, but he seemed to lose all power of reason whenever Ms.Rayne was involved. He did not know whether Bianca's presence was a positive or negative influenceon Luke.
Bianca's appearance in Luke's life had given him warmth. She had brought some humanity to his coldand serious character.
At the same time, Bianca had also become his greatest weakness.
If anyone dared to lay a finger on Bianca, he would become more cruel and reckless than ever.
"Also!" Luke suddenly opened his eyes. There was a hint of mockery in his icy gaze. "Dig up any dirtyou can find on Leia Norman, and make her the talk of the town for the next one month."
Luke could roughly guess the mastermind behind the libelous article without investigating.
If that individual would harm others using underhanded tactics, Luke would let her have a taste of herown medicine! 1
Jason was shocked.
He did not know how Committee Secretary Norman's daughter had offended his boss, but he decidedto keep quiet, seeing that Luke was in a bad mood.
"Yes, Mr. Crawford." "Also, get Gordan Norton to come and look for me.’ "Yes," Jason replied.
Luke closed his eyes again. He looked like he was taking a nap, but he might also be thinking ofsomething.
He smiled mockingly when he remembered that CD that held the incriminating evidence. He did notexpect that Mr. Schmidt, that old fox, kept records.
For him, the CD was no big deal. 1
