Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 1083

Chapter 1083 New Mother

Luke stared daggers at her as soon as she said that.

Maxine paused and kept the rest of what she wanted to say to herself. His gaze was spine-chilling. It reminded her of a demon from hell that was capable of silently killing anyone.

She felt scared, but she had no regrets.

The night before, she found the opportunity to spike Luke's wine with the drug that Shanks gave her. Things went well. After he drank it, he passed out.

Maxine then sent him to the hotel, took the photo that Abel requested, and kept a copy for herself.

She deliberately did it so that Luke would get the wrong impression.

However, she did not expect that when he woke up the next day, he did not react and even treated her as though she was invisible.

Maxine was beyond furious, so she cto Old Master Crawford in hopes that he would be on her side.

Susan was just enjoying the drama. When she saw that Maxine was so scared that she immediately kept quiet after being stared at by Luke, Susan said mockingly, "Luke, how could you do something like this? As part of the Crawford family, I need to say something. We’re still unsure if Bianca is alive yet you did such a thing to this poor girl. What are you going to do?" "Mom!" Louis tugged at her sleeve.

Susan did not want Luke to marry Maxine. However, when she was presented with such a good opportunity to ridicule Luke, she naturally would not let it go.

She glared at her son, shook him off, and said, "You can consider getting married, but seeing that we have yet to hear anything about Bianca, you won’t be able to get a divorce just yet. If you can’t get divorced, it won’t be an easy task handling the Douglas family." "Are you done talking?!" Old Master Crawford said and felt disgusted with Susan from the bottom of his heart.

Susan picked on her nails as she said, "I'm just laying out the facts. Luke's mother is in jail. As his elder, I have the responsibility to give him advice! Else, our family might be the center of gossip!" "Shut up!" Old Master Crawford could not stand it any longer and yelled at Susan.

"Maxine, what do you want? I'll redress the balance for you!" He looked at the crying woman.

Although he was not a fan of Maxine, he knew that Luke was in the wrong this time. On top of that, the Douglas family was powerful. Old Master Crawford had to be fair and just to avoid conflict from happening.

Maxine looked at Luke timidly and deliberately acted like she was at a loss.

"Luke, don't deny that we-" "It’s my body, I would know if I had done it." Luke finished speaking and stood up. "Miss Douglas, if you insist that we slept together, please show sevidence." "Isn’t that photo enough?" Maxine blushed and stood her ground. That photo was enough to prove that they were together that night. She had even put in the effort to leave slove marks.

"All it proves is that we shared a bed," Luke said in disgust. He was certain that he had not done anything that night.

"You..." Maxine did not expect him to say that.

"You wouldn't be able to take a photo if I were conscious." Luke remembered that he had passed out after drinking just a glass of wine.

He could hold his liquor fairly well, so the only explanation was that Maxine had spiked the wine.

"You weren't sober, that's why you thought that I was Bianca and did those things. Luke, I don't need you to take responsibility, but it’s not fair that you’re blaming everything on me. You're hurting me." Maxine acted like a victim.

"If I did it, I'll take responsibility for it." Luke put his hands in his pockets and displayed the aura of a champion as he said, "But only if you have more evidence to show." "You mean you'll only believeif I’m pregnant?" Maxine did not expect him to be so difficult. If she knew he would be like this, she would have left immediately after taking the photo to avoid so many complications.

However, she was so obsessed with him that she thought doing this would mean she could get her hands on Luke...

Maxine regretted it, but at this juncture, she had to grit her teeth and insist that they had slept together.

"You won’t get pregnant." Luke's deep gaze that was as sharp as a knife fell on her face. "Because I didn’t sleep with you." "Luke!" Old Master Crawford frowned. As an elder, he was ashamed that Luke was still denying it even though there was a photo.

"Grandpa, if Miss Douglas can provide more evidence, I’ll gladly take responsibility for it," Luke said, "I'm heading upstairs to check on the kids."

After he said that, he went upstairs without looking back.

Susan picked up the teacup, pretentiously took a sip, and said with a smile, "Look, this is Allison’s good son. Sure enough, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree." "Isn’t this enough of a sh*tshow for you?" Old Master Crawford stared at her and thought that Susan’s presence was nothing but trouble.

When something major happened, she would never be on the sside as them.

"Dad, what I'm telling you is the truth. Maxine, don't be too sad. It’s unfortunate that you met Luke. If he doesn't admit it, you should just assit didn't happen," Susan said gleefully.

Maxine stood up, stomped her feet, and said to them, "I’m not lying to you!” "Maxine, I’ll be fair to you in this matter." Old Master Crawford held the photo and planned to find someone to examine it. If the photo was real, he had to give the Douglas family an explanation. If the photo was fake, there would be no need for that.

"Grandpa, it's all true..." Maxine emphasized again, acting pitiful.

"I know. It's late, you should head back." Old Master Crawford wanted her gone because he had a headache looking at her.

Maxine knew Old Master Crawford's plans. The evidence she showed was real, so she was not afraid of having it examined. Hence, she nodded and turned to leave.

Upstairs.

Luke checked on Tommy and Rainie to make sure they were both asleep. Then, he walked into Blanche's bedroom.

The lights were still on in the bedroom. Blanche sat on the bed. He was wide awake.

"Why aren't you sleeping?" Luke walked in and sat on the edge of the bed.

"Dad, is what Aunt Maxine saying true?" Blanche asked. Although the adults had sent them back to the bedroom when they were discussing it, he noticed that something was wrong and stood by the stairs to eavesdrop. He had heard everything.

He did not understand a lot of the vocabulary, but what he got out of it was that his father was involved with Maxine.

"It’s not true.” Luke touched his head. "I love your mother, so I won't do anything to wrong her." "Mommy may not cback." Although Blanche often comforted his crying siblings, he did not hold much hope in his heart.

"A classmate of mine lost his mother, and soon his father found him a new mother. Daddy... Rainie, Tommy, and I don’t want a new mother," he said seriously, not wanting Maxine to bectheir new mother.
