Chapter 293 Stepping On Luke's Toes
The actual identity of the "cousin" was actually Luke Crawford?
After the sensational news broke out, the comments were split into three camps.
The first was Luke's devoted supporters, who defended Luke's reputation with hard-hitting points. A
gentle, handsome man who regularly topped the list of wealthiest people could have gotten any woman
he wanted. Why would he go after the wife of another man?
The second was his detractors. Their common consensus was that no one knew how Luke behaved in
private, despite his frank and candid public personality.
Perhaps hidden under that gentlemanly guise was his true sadistic and incestuous self!
The elite society was full of scandals like these. Not only affairs happened between cousins, but they
even happened between father and child.
They thought that the post was absolutely true.
Those people generally had a negative outlook on life, and they believed that everyone else was as
negative as them.
The third was those who claimed to be neutral. They would keep quiet and watch the news unfold...
In less than an hour, the post received thousands of comments between the supporters and detractors.
They debated about the validity of the post; some of them even sounded like professional debaters.
Bianca had witnessed the power of public opinion.
In any case, everyone had their opinion, and the incident would not reach a conclusion anytime soon.
Bianca furrowed her brows. She did not know what CuckedTurtle's intention was; all she knew was that
she could not forgive the writer for involving her children.

She picked up her phone and was about to call Luke when she received a call from him.
Bianca answered the call.
"I saw the post," Bianca said before Luke said anything.
“Don't worry. I saw the post as well. I'll handle this," Luke comforted him.
Bianca did not know how he was going to handle the scandal, but his words seemed to give her
assurance. Her anxious heart gradually calmed down.
She believed in Luke.
At the hospital.
Xavier Tanner, the man wrapped up in bandages in the photos, was smoking casually.
His lips curled into a sinister smile as he watched the heated debate in the post. He turned to look at
the man standing next to the bed and said, "That was an excellent post. I was not wrong to find you."
The man was in his late twenties, and his face was unshaven. He was jobless, and he earned money
by posting cliched love stories in the fiction forums. He was a spendthrift, and he usually had to go
hungry.
He accepted Xavier's job without hesitation. After all, Xavier had given him 20,000 dollars as an
advance.
Making up a semi-realistic story about a scandal between wealthy families was too easy for him. He did
not care for the truth but only for the money.
Xavier handed the young man a card. "Here's the remaining 180,000 dollars. You'll have extra rewards
depending on how the situation evolves."
The young man took the card and smiled flatteringly. "Thank you, Mr.
Tanner. Please look for me if you need more posts like that one."
After the man left, Xavier stubbed out his cigarette. He could not hide the smug smile on his face.
'Aren't you forcing my hand, Luke and Bianca? I'll see how you handle this!"
T Corporation.
The atmosphere in the CEO's office on the top floor was ice-cold.
His eyes were transfixed on his laptop screen. He was not looking at business information, but that
popular post on Xeddit...
Jason stood next to him, almost shivering from his boss's icy temperament.
It seemed that his boss would be ruthless whenever Bianca was involved.
"Contact Xeddit and get them to ban the author's account. Find the identity of the author and bring him
to the police station. If he has the guts to spread false news, then he should also be prepared to suffer
the consequences. Summon the board of directors. I want to acquire all assets of the Tanner family in
the shortest time possible. If Xavier wants to play, then two can play that game. Contact JK Media. I
have something to discuss with Eugene." Luke closed his eyes to hide the hostility in his gaze.
When he opened his eyes again, he looked impassively at his assistant.
Jason was secretly afraid. He nodded his head and carried out his boss's orders.
Luke's gaze was transfixed on the wedding photo with the subjects' faces blurred out. He smirked
coldly...
"You can attack me however you want, Xavier, but your fatal mistake is to expose my woman and my
children's identities.
'It seems that you have not learned your lesson. If you have a death wish, then I shall gladly fulfill it!'
The man's ice-cold expression was like a wild beast in the dark unsheathing its claws and starting its
retaliation...
Leia had finished shooting a scene. She was resting by the side and was on a video call with a good
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfriend.
Suddenly, her friend sent her a link and smiled cryptically, instructing her to open the link.
She was one of Leia's closest friends, and Leia kept no secrets from her. Naturally, she knew that Leia
admired Luke Crawford.
She instantly forwarded to Leia any gossip about Luke.
Curiously, Leia opened the link. She was incredibly excited after reading through the article.
Her intuition told her that the three people mentioned in the article were Luke, Bianca, and Xavier.
The netizen's comments left below the post confirmed her intuition.
She did not care if the contents of the post were true or false. Anything would pass for truth as long as
Bianca's reputation could be ruined!
Leia took off her costume, put on her clothes, informed her assistant, and left the film set while wearing
her makeup. She did not even inform the director or the producer.
The director was about to call Leia to prepare for the next scene but instead saw her leaving the film
set on a luxury car. He was so angry that he threw the script on the ground!
'This is a big-budget period production, and every minute costs money,' the director thought. 'Even
celebrities who are more popular than her won't leave the set just like that, but Leia left on her own
accord without telling anyone. Who does she think she is?
'She only gets to be so brazen because her father is the Provincial Committee Secretary.
'If she ever loses her status, she'll be worth nothing in the entertainment industry!'
Leia went to the shopping mall, bought several luxury handbags and diamond accessories, then rushed
to Crawford Manor.
She gave the presents to Allison, which made her immensely happy. "Aunt Allison, there's something
about Luke that I don't know if I should tell you... " she stammered.
Allison was in a good mood. She patted the back of Leia's hand and said gently, "You don't have to be
a stranger, Leia. Just tell me what's on your mind. I don't like people who beat around the bush."
Leia hesitated for a while, then browsed to the post and handed her phone to Allison...
