Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

Chapter 1086 Pharmaceutical Company
' What are you doing?" Verona did not understand why her husband was apologizing.
To her, it was not a serious matter. If Luke really pursued the matter, the worst-case scenario would be to go to court. They most
definitely could afford to hire a famous lawyer.
"Shut up!" Irving felt ashamed. Originally, he thought it would be great to build a relationship with the Crawford family, but he did
not expect that this was all plotted by his own daughter from beginning to end. As her father, he ended up being used by her!
Verona wanted to express her dissatisfaction, but seeing that Irving's expression had turned ugly, she held herself back. She
glared at Luke, stood up, and took Maxine's hand. "Let's go." ’Mom..." Maxine did not want to leave, but she had no choice
considering how awkward the situation was.
Haven't you embarrassed us enough?" Irving also wanted to leave. He had lost all his dignity and stared at her fiercely.
'Spiking someone's drink and taking an indecent photo just to slander them?! What kind of women would do such things?! How
shameful!’
Moreover, if Luke was not exaggerating, the drug's origin was unknown.
After being glared at, Maxine stood up reluctantly. Her tears were still falling and she looked pitiful, but she could not gain any
sympathy points from Luke. The hard work she had put in over the past few months was in vain. She felt somewhat hesitant to
accept this.
Verona took her daughter away. Irving apologized to Luke again and then left with his wife and daughter.
When they got to the entrance, Luke slowly said, "Miss Douglas, you should think about how to explain where the drug came
from. The police have deployed a team to look into this drug and are preparing to make it a high- priority investigation."
He did not experience any side effects from this drug, but it was a new type of drug and since the police knew about it, it was
impossible for them to ignore it.
Maxine felt as though a thunderbolt had struck her head. If the police investigated this and found that she was involved, she
would be in deep trouble.
Even though she was unwilling, Maxine immediately hurried to leave.

Seeing that the farce was finally over, Old Master Crawford breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at his grandson. He ranted,
"Why didn't you bring this report out sooner?" "The report came out yesterday," Luke said.
Old Master Crawford asked curiously, "What you said is true?" "Yeah." Luke picked Blanche up, put him on the floor, and
touched his head. He said, "I told you that there's nothing to worry about, right?"
Blanche was relieved to know that his dad had not wronged Mommy. He nodded and said with a thumbs up, "You're awesome!"
Luke touched his head. 'If I'm awesome, Maxine wouldn't have been able to take advantage of me.'
He stood up, took his son’s hand, and said, "Let's go. You need to do your homework." "Okay, Daddy." Blanche nodded
obediently as the duo went upstairs together.
Old Master Crawford was still sitting on the sofa, staring at the black folder.
'Maxine is just a woman, and the Douglas family are also proper businesspeople. I have never heard about them getting involved
in the underworld. How did she get this kind of drug?1
After this incident, Old Master Crawford was even more dissatisfied with Maxine.
Before that, he had a pretty good impression of Maxine and even thought that if Luke gave up on Bianca someday, Maxine
would be a good choice. However, at this moment, he no longer liked her at all.
A scheming woman as such was not suitable to be the mistress of the Crawford family. Susan Armstrong and Allison Turner had
given him enough headaches. In contrast, the best mistress of the Crawford family was still Bianca.
Irving drove back to the hotel where they were staying. The moment they walked into the bedroom, he waved his hand and
slapped Maxine on the face.
"Ah!" Maxine screamed while covering her face. He did not hold back with that slap. Her face instantly became red and swollen.
"What are you doing?! Are you crazy? Why are you hitting our child?" Verona felt distressed. Maxine was her youngest daughter
and also her favorite child.
"Why do you think I hit her? I worked so hard to bring her up and in the end, look at what a fool she has become!" Irving's chest
rose and fell, his face flushed because of anger.

"It's a trivial matter, do you have to go so far? We've never been involved with the Crawford family, so this isn’t a big deal and no
one will know about it. Why are you reacting like this?" Verona's heart ached as she looked at her daughter whose eyes were red
from crying.
She raised her hands and said in a soft voice, "Let me see." "Mom." Maxine carried resentment in her heart. She cried and
uncovered her hand from her face, revealing her swollen face.
"You’re crazy! Even if she has done something wrong, you shouldn’t slap her!" When Verona saw that Maxine's face was
swollen, she immediately turned around and protected her by moving in front of her. Verona glared at her husband.
"Do you think what she did is a small matter? If Luke goes after her, she'll bring shame to the entire Douglas family!" Irving was
very angry. He knew that a loving mother made a wastrel. He had sent Maxine abroad when she was young to train her to be
independent.
wicked.
Irving was annoyed.
Verona understood his point of view. She said, "The Crawford family said that they would let it go. Even if news of it breaks out,
you should never lay your hands on her. She did it because she loves Luke. Those who are in love will understand."
When she was young, she had also relied on tricks to seduce Irving.
"Everyone knows how Luke came about. His mother is a disgusting mistress and if he dares to disclose news of this, I'll reveal all
of his mother’s dirty secrets!" Verona said with a stern expression.
Irving was disappointed when he saw his wife blindly defending their daughter.
"You still don't see the seriousness of the situation!" His sharp gaze fell on Maxine's face. He did not feel sorry seeing her red
cheek. "Maxine, tell me honestly. How did you get those drugs?!" "Dad, I don't know what drug Luke was talking about. When I
arrived, Luke was already lying on the bar." Maxine refused to admit it.
Irving looked disappointed. "You're not willing to tell me the truth?" "Dad, I'm telling you the truth!" Maxine was flustered. Irving
was not easy to fool, so she did not dare to make up excuses nor tell the truth.

"Were those drugs given to you by the pharmaceutical company you're working with?" Irving remembered that she had
persuaded him to invest in a pharmaceutical company.
"That's a proper pharmaceutical company. How could they be involved with drugs like that?" Maxine cried out in denial.
