Chapter 583
Chapter 583 Bianca Was the Swapped Baby Girl!
The document read: When Queenie Ziegler, Jack Norman's wife, was in the small-town clinic, theperson who accompanied her there was Allison Tanner, Luke's mother.
Luke's hands stiffened when he saw that line.
He turned to the next page and continued to read.
The account was very detailed for a twenty-something-year-old incident.
According to the informer, Queenie had overstressed herself during that crisis. Moreover, her healthwas not that great, and those factors had caused her to deliver her baby prematurely.
The small town was too far away from the city, and she could not get to the hospital in time. That waswhy she had to go to an unremarkable clinic.
The name of the doctor who delivered Queenie's baby was named Vyen Lane.
Queenie lost a lot of blood during the delivery, and she was on the brink of death. She did not knowthat she had given birth to a healthy baby girl.
At that time, Allison had performed an illicit transaction with Doctor Lane. She bribed the doctor with alarge sum of money to swap the baby girl with a dead one.
Doctor Lane took the money and left the country, while the whereabouts of that baby girl wereunknown.
Luke read through the document twice before putting it down.
No one would be able to keep a secret unless they were dead! 1
It was not easy to find the information, but it was not too difficult either.
Without saying a word, Luke stood up, rested his hand on the windowsill, and looked at the sceneryoutside.
The sunlight that shone into the office made him look taller.
Even Jason was stunned by the man's perfect side profile and godlike demeanor.
"This incident is related to Madam Crawford, boss," he said.
Luke was irritated by the results of the investigation. He felt the urge to smoke.
He turned around and took out a cigarette from his drawer.
Jason lit it up for him.
"Where is the woman named Vyen Lane now?" Luke asked.
"Earlier, she returned to the country to visit her relatives, but she's since gone back overseas."
Jason continued, "According to the investigation, Madam Crawford met up with Doctor Lane a monthago. The details of their conversation were unclear, but Doctor Lane hastily left the country the nextday. Right, I've encountered some opposition from two separate sources when conducting theinvestigation. Obviously, they don't want me to seek the truth."
Luke's demeanor instantly became severe. "Do you know who they are?" "The first is Leia Norman,Jack Norman's adoptive daughter. The second is from... Madam Crawford."
Luke dragged his cigarette fiercely.
Jason could tell that his boss was not in a good mood.
It was not hard to tell why. It was understandable that Leia Norman did not want Jason to find out thetruth, but Luke did not expect that his mother would interfere in the investigation too.
He had always thought that his mother was merely selfish and materialistic, but he did not expect thathis mother was morally repugnant enough to swap Queenie's child with a dead one, causing one of herbest friends to live in agony for more than twenty years. Now, she was obstructing the investigation too.
Queenie was in a terrible mental state after she lost her child. She became better after she adoptedLeia.
Luke found out from Shakira that Shakira, Queenie, and Allison used to be very good friends.
There were even several group photos of them at home. However, Luke could not figure out why hismother would do that.
None of the documents showed that Bianca was involved in the incident, but Luke was smart enoughto connect the dots and guess that Bianca was the baby girl.
He remembered how his mother was inexplicably hostile to Bianca. She had strongly opposed theirwedding, and she had even lied to him that they were siblings.
Luke knew that his mother was once married to Kevin Rayne.
She had considered that period of her life as a great embarrassment, and she would not even want tomention it. Naturally, Luke did not believe her when she said that he and Bianca were biologicalsiblings.
Bianca and Luke took a DNA test, and that proved that Allison was lying.
Back then, he was overjoyed that they were not related by blood, and he did not investigate herbackground.
To him, it was enough that they were not biological siblings. Nothing else mattered.novelbin
Now that he thought about it, Bianca's background remained a mystery.
He never considered that Bianca would be Queenie's birth daughter.
After arriving at that conclusion, Luke flicked the cigarette in the ashtray and said, "Investigate DoctorLane's background and find out her exact location overseas. Go and pay her a visit if you need to. Iwant to know the ins and outs of the entire incident."
Doctor Vyen Lane was an important witness in the entire incident. She was also involved in it.
If Bianca were really Queenie's daughter, Vyen needed to return to the country to testify.
"Yes, boss," Jason answered and left the office.
Luke stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, bathed in the golden rays of the sunset.
There was not the slightest hint of emotion on his handsome face.
He was thinking.
Bianca had lived in the Rayne household for more than twenty years. He knew that she placed a lot oflove and trust toward her father Kevin Rayne, her aunt Wanda Rayne, and her grandfather Old MasterRayne. It would be hard for her to accept the truth.
If his mother had not interfered, Bianca would not have suffered throughout her life.
Luke was not sure if Bianca would accept the truth so readily.
Even so, Bianca still had the right to know the truth, and he would stand beside her when she wouldeventually make the decision.
Soon, it was the 15th of the month once more. The Crawford family members gathered for a meal.
Luke brought Bianca to Crawford Manor.
They were there early. Old Master Crawford was out for morning exercise. Susan went along with him,and they had not returned yet.
Louis would not appear unless the food was already on the table.
Allison was sitting on the couch in the living room, drinking her morning tea.
"Welcome back, Young Master Crawford." The caretaker took a pair of slippers from the shoe rack andplaced them in front of Luke.
She was about to get slippers for Bianca when Allison slammed the teacup on the coffee table.
She started to reprimand the caretaker, "Not everyone deserves to enter Crawford Manor, Lindell. Youdon't have to attend to certain women."
The caretaker froze on the spot awkwardly.
She glanced at Luke's gloomy expression and thought that the pair of slippers in her hands were likehot potatoes. She was not sure if she should put them on the floor or back at the shoe rack.
"Don't worry, Granny Lindell. Let me handle this." Luke took the slippers from the caretaker's hands,crouched on the floor, and helped Bianca put the slippers on.
Allison was about to explode from anger as she looked at her son's slavish attitude toward Bianca!
Her son had never cared for her like that, but he was so docile and obedient toward that Biancawoman. Bianca was indeed a seductress!
