Chapter 1186 You Shouldn’t Have Offended Mr. Crawford
Rainie nodded and did not ask any further questions.
After Luke sent Jack and Queenie back to their residence, he went to the apartment.
Liam was eating a boxed dinner that the bodyguards bought him. He stood up immediately and instinctively straightened his
clothes when he saw Luke walk in. "Mr. Crawford, can I go home now?" "Not yet," he said sullenly.
"Why not? You're detaining me illegally," Liam said agitatedly when he heard that he could not go home yet.
The bodyguards treated him well, but he was not free to come and go as he pleased.
"Do one last thing for me," Luke said. His gaze was unfathomably profound.
Liam shuddered when he looked at the man who was one head taller than him. "What do you want me to do?
"Write another article and confess that you have slandered Mr. Crawford because you were paid to do so," Jason, who was
standing behind Luke, said.
He had sent the recording in for analysis earlier and found that it was authentic.
"Paid to do so?" Liam's eyes widened in disbelief. "Are you sure you want me to say that your wife paid me to do it?"
Luke's expression sank.
Liam realized that he had misspoken. He shuddered and said, "I know what to do."
He understood that they wanted him to confess that he had taken money to do the job, but at the same time, they did not want
him to expose the fact that Bianca was the one who had hired him.
"Give him the laptop." Luke turned around and sat down on the couch.
Jason nodded and handed the reporter the laptop that he had prepared." Go on and write the article. You can go home after
you've written it."
Liam dared not protest. He took the laptop, logged into his account, and began to write the article.

With his many years of journalistic experience, he quickly finished the article and let Luke read it. Luke nodded after browsing
through it.
"Publish it," Jason said.
Liam took two deep breaths and pressed the button to publish the article.
The article also meant the end of his career. At the very least, no media outlet in A City would want to hire him.
Jason browsed the forum and saw Liam's announcement. He nodded and said, "It's done, Boss." "Let him go," Luke said.
"You can go now." Jason took the laptop and shut it down.
Liam stood up but did not move. He was thinking of something.
Seeing that the reporter remained on the spot, Jason asked him, "Is there anything else?"
Liam rubbed his palms together. Now that his career was ruined, he might as well ask Luke. "Mr. Crawford, now that I've posted
the announcement, I won't be able to find a job in A City anymore. Can you at least give me some money so that I can return to
my hometown?"
Luke stood up and left the apartment.
Liam watched in shock as Luke walked away. "Mr. Crawford?" He tried to give chase.
"Don't bother." Jason stretched out his arm and blocked him.
Liam tried to go around Jason's arm, but Luke had already left the apartment, and the bodyguard closed the door. Liam felt the
despair creeping in.
Jason shook his head and told him, "You should've known better than to offend Mr. Crawford. Perhaps you should have refused
the job, but it's too late now."
Liam sighed regretfully, but indeed, it was too late to regret what he did.
He looked at Jason helplessly and asked him, "What should I do?" "Didn't Mrs. Crawford give you money?" Jason said.

"She hasn't..." Liam sighed. "I don't think she'll give me money even if I ask her now." "You shouldn't have offended Mr. Crawford
in the first place." Jason did not show the reporter any pity at all. Now that Liam had published his confession, there was nothing
that he could do to save himself.
Of course, he could not possibly get back at Luke as well.
When Liam heard that, he instantly sank into despair.
Accepting Bianca's offer and offending Luke was the biggest mistake in his professional life. Now, his career was ruined, and he
did not receive his pay.
The bodyguard returned his phone to him and urged, "You should leave before Mr. Crawford changes his mind."
Liam took the phone and slowly walked out of the apartment.
He stepped out of the neighborhood and stood at the side of the road. The night wind was especially cold that day.
Liam accessed the forum on his phone. In only a few minutes, his announcement received a barrage of negative comments.
Occasionally, some people would ask him why he would suddenly make the announcement, and if Luke was holding him
hostage. However, those comments were quickly buried by a slew of angry curses.
Dejectedly, Liam stuffed his phone into his pocket. The incident was considered over, and he was utterly ruined.
It was about nine o'clock when Luke returned to Crawford Manow.
Old Master Crawford had already retired to his bedroom. Luke walked into the living room and looked at the surroundings.
Three generations lived under the same roof, though the people seemed to have slowly drifted apart. Even his wife was like a
stranger to him now.
The butler came over and asked him, "I've saved some soup in the kitchen for you, Sir. Do you want it?" "No." Luke glanced at
the butler. Mr. Griffin had been working in the household for more than a decade. Luke wondered what he thought about the
changes that happened to the family.
The butler noticed his profound gaze and asked him, "Is something bothering you, Sir?”

Luke was taken aback by the question. The aged butler had watched him grow up, so he could read Luke's expressions pretty
well.
'I’m fine. Is my wife upstairs?" He asked.
"Yes. Madam is in the bedroom." The butler nodded and added, "Madam has been acting strangely today, Sir. She left the house
before breakfast. After she came back, she shut herself in the bedroom and did not come out." "Didn't she eat dinner?" Luke
frowned slightly.
"No," the butler shook his head and replied.
"Mm. Thank you." Luke walked up the stairs.
He came to the master bedroom and knocked on the door.
"What is it?" Bianca's voice was heard from the inside.
"It's me," Luke said, "Can I come in?"
If it were any other time, Bianca would have been happy to see Luke in the same room as her. However, she did not even have
the strength to get out of bed now. Moreover, if Abel had managed to find her, it meant that the scandal had already fallen
through, and he might have already found the reporter. She was not in the mood to deal with him now.
"I'm almost asleep, Luke. Can we talk about it tomorrow?"
