Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1747

In the study.

Old Master Crawford watched Luke light the incense, then looked out the window. His eyes were cloudy. He seemed to have a lot on his mind.

Luke closed the lid and said, "Grandpa, if you have something to say, just say it."

"Is your mother's face incurable?" Old Master Crawford knew that Luke had arranged for a doctor to go to prison to check on Allison but he never asked about it. After he saw Allison wrapping herself up like that, he knew that the treatment was not working as well as she hoped.

"The wrinkles on her face are permanent and irreversible," Luke said.

Old Master Crawford sighed. He knew that it was Allison's fault and she had no one to blame but herself. However, she would bring embarrassment to the Crawford family if she insisted on going out in public.

He said, "This home is not peaceful, and it’s not good for the physical and mental health of the kids. If you want, you can move out with the kids and only bring them back to accompany me during the holidays."

"Grandpa, I know what to do." Luke nodded. He had already thought of this, but there were too many things happening recently. Hence, he had not made the necessary arrangements yet.

"By the way, I gave Louis a sum of money and asked him to buy a house. I plan to let him bring Thea there to live. If Susan wants to, she can also move there. I want to give you a heads up because his new house is near the house you bought recently. If you want to move out with the kids, you can choose to move there. Although the two of you aren’t from the same mother, you share the same father. I hope you can take care of each other," Old Master Crawford said. They were brothers, so their strength would become greater if they were united.

He was old. He knew that the Crawford family would be handed over to Luke and Louis sooner or later. What he hoped was that the two could unite and not be estranged just because of their mothers.

"Okay," Luke nodded. He also intended to move the kids away. He did not expect Louis to move into the neighborhood as well, but he was happy with it. At least they could still often meet and chat.

Old Master Crawford waved his hand and said, "Okay, I don't have anything else to talk to you about. I’m sure you’ve been busy with work, so I won't take up any more of your time. You can get back to work."

"Okay, Grandpa." Luke pushed the tea the butler brought in front of Old Master Crawford, then turned around to leave.

If he did not have to pick up Allison, he would have been dealing with work at T Corporation.

Luke walked to the ground floor from the study and found that Susan was still sitting there, eating some desserts prepared by the cook. When she saw him coming down, she called out to him, "Luke, wait."

Luke stopped and replied, "Mother, what can I do for you?"

"Can I only call out to you if I have something that I need from you? I’m your mother. Can't I stop you just to have a chat?" Susan deliberately picked a fight.

"If all is well, I need to go to the office," Luke said blankly. When he was young, disputes between the adults would inevitably involve him.

As he grew up, he started putting aside these family disputes. They hardly affected him now.

Susan was dissatisfied when she saw him mentioning T Corporation every chance he had.

‘Is he trying to show off that he’s capable? He’s just lucky. If it weren't for him being a few years older than Louis, T Corporation would’ve never ended up in his hands.’

"I stopped you because I have something to talk to you about. Since your mother is disfigured now, I want to say that as her son, you should remind her not to wander around, especially at night. I don’t want her to scare the kids when they see her face. Otherwise, they’re going to have nightmares. If possible, she shouldn’t come down during the day too. It’s petrifying." Susan deliberately made a scared expression and rubbed her arms.

Old Master Crawford thought that it would be best if Susan moved out with Louis so that Crawford Manor would be much quieter when he and Allison were the only ones left.

Susan frowned as Louis had not mentioned it to her.

"Why don’t I know anything about this?!"

"Maybe Young Master Louis wanted to give you a surprise. Do you want to move out?" the butler made a guess although he already knew why Louis did not say anything to her.

Louis wanted to move out some time ago but Susan used her granddaughter as an excuse to reject.

She felt that they would be giving Luke a chance if they moved out, so she kept asking Louis to live here with Thea.

In that way, they stood a better chance of getting a larger cut of the family fortune.

However, Louis did not share the same thought. His hands were tied, but when he had the opportunity, he secretly made the arrangements.

"Move out? Of course, I don't want to. If I move out, that would just make things easier for that b*tch Allison!" Susan refused without a second thought.

Although Old Master Crawford had privately given Louis money to buy a house, she was still reluctant to move out. She firmly believed that she would be able to get her hands on more resources if she continued to live there.
