Chapter 1034 What Happened to Bianca?
Queenie's face turned pale instantly. When she received the call, she only got to know that something happened to Leia. The
phone call did not mention anything about Bianca at all. She grabbed Luke’s sleeves and asked him, "What are you talking
about, Luke?"
Jack was also anxious when he heard that something happened to Bianca. "What happened to Bianca?" He asked anxiously.
Luke's eyes were bloodshot. "Bianca was abducted at the bridal boutique."
When Queenie heard that, her eyes glazed over, and she fainted into Jack's arms.
"Queenie? Queenie?" Jack hugged her and shook her, but she gave no response.
When the medical staff saw that, they immediately brought a gurney and took Queenie to the emergency ward. Jack had never
faced such a situation before, and he hurriedly followed the nurses in. It was only when he turned around to look that he realized
Luke did not come along.
"Luke... Sigh!" The nurses closed the curtains and blocked Jack's view. Not sure of what else he could do, he gave a call to his
secretary to investigate the incident at the bridal boutique.
A while later, a nurse hurriedly rushed over. "Excuse me, are you Leia Norman's immediate family?" "I am her father. What is it?"
Jack's arms were akimbo. Usually, he would remain composed when faced with big problems, but he could not calm himself
down now.
"The patient is going into shock. We need familial consent before we undergo induced labor to save the adult's life," the nurse
explained Leia's condition briefly.
"Induced labor?" Jack frowned. Leia's baby was only seven months old. Would the child survive?
"Yes, you'll have to give your consent now. Every minute delayed poses an extra risk for the patient." The nurse frowned. Leia's
situation was dire.
Jack rubbed his chin. "Can the baby be saved?" "We would not give up any chance of saving the baby, but the situation isn't
looking good. We cannot even detect the heartbeat. That's why we have to induce labor so that we increase the survival chances
of the mother," the nurse said. She could not guarantee that the baby was still alive.
Jack finally understood what the nurse was telling her. The baby was most likely gone. If he did not make up his mind now, Leia
would be gone too.
Leia might have gone overboard, but she was nonetheless his daughter for twenty years. He did not want her to be in danger.
"Prepare the document. Ill sign it," Jack said decisively. Even though Leia and Brody were about to be married, they had not
registered their marriage, so from a legal standpoint, Jack was Leia's immediate family.
The nurse nodded and led the way. "Please follow me."
Jack glanced at the emergency ward. Queenie was still unconscious. He had no choice but to follow the nurse and sign the
consent form.
After that, Jack went back to the emergency room and saw Queenie being wheeled out.
"How is my wife?" Jack rushed up and held Queenie's hand.
"She had fainted from a great psychological shock. Well send her to the ward for now. She'll wake up soon," the emergency
doctor said.
"Alright. Thank you, doctor." Jack followed them.
The doctor roughly knew what was going on with their family. "Mr. Norman, your daughter is still in an operation. I'll help you look
after Mrs. Norman, and you should go and wait at the operating theater. Well inform you immediately if there's an emergency."
Jack nodded. He was too concerned about Queenie, and so he neglected Leia.
"Alright. Thank you, doctor. If my wife wakes up, you can tell her that I'm at the operating theater."
"Of course." The doctor and the nurses wheeled Queenie into the elevator.
Jack went to the operating theater to wait. On the way to sign the consent form, he had already informed Brody that his child was
at the risk of being born prematurely. He did not tell him that Leia was in danger too.
Brody did not come even after he knew about it. Jack looked at the time. It had been almost half an hour.
Meanwhile, Luke rushed over to the bridal boutique. The police had been informed, and several police officers were collecting
evidence at the scene.
"Boss! I've failed to protect Madam. Please punish me as you see fit," Ripley said when he saw Luke. He felt guilty for failing to
protect Bianca and was ready to lose his job.
Luke glared at Ripley with an ice-cold gaze. "What did you find?" "All the surveillance cameras were out of commission. The
police are looking for evidence now," Ripley said. His head was still throbbing from the effects of the sedative.
The forensics officer had taken his blood sample for analysis.
"Did you see who they were?" Luke clenched his fists. Despite the severity of the incident, the abductors did not make a mess
out of the place to subdue his four bodyguards. At the same time, Bianca was brought away without much of a struggle.
His eyes turned bloodshot when he thought of Bianca, as though he would go berserk at any time. He would not forgive anyone
who tried to harm his beloved woman.
"They're three Europeans. We managed to see two of them, and the police have already made a facial composite. Sean
managed to see the other one, but he's sent to the operating theater before a facial composite could be done," Ripley reported.
"Check the roadside surveillance cameras," Luke said. After the police collected evidence, they came up to Luke. "Mr. Crawford,
please follow us back to the police station." "Yes. I'd like to talk to the superintendent too," Luke said coldly and turned away.
After Ripley saw Luke and the police officers leave, he made a phone call to the city council to obtain the security footage from
the roadside surveillance cameras.
Usually, civilians would not have access to the security footage. However, the victim was Bianca Rayne, Luke Crawford's wife.
The news had already spread before the police announced anything.
The other party understood when Ripley name-dropped Luke. Soon, Ripley received the footage in his mailbox.
On the way to the police station, Luke received a phone call from Gordan.
"I’ve found something. Are you free to come over?" Gordan said.
"Something happened to Bianca. I'm heading to the police station. I'll leave that to you for now," Luke said.
Gordan was shocked. "What happened to Sis?" "Someone abducted her." Luke watched the green traffic light turn red and had
the urge to run the light.
"How brazen! Do you need any help?" Gordan said.
"Not for now. I'm heading to the police station." Luke ended the call. The red light turned green. Seeing that the cars in front of
him were slow to move, Luke blared his horn impatiently.
After parking his car at the police station, Luke went straight to the superintendent's office.
The superintendent was already informed of Bianca's abduction. He immediately stood up when he saw Luke come into his
office. "Please have a seat, Mr. Crawford. I've already instructed my subordinates to prepare you a copy of our investigative
findings."
