Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1773

At that moment, the two acted like shrews who were fighting in the market square.

When Allison saw Luke, she knew that her support had arrived. Before Susan could say anything, she cried out, "Luke, I don’t feel welcomed in this house! I don’t want to live anymore!"

Luca listened as Allison cried about her misery. It was made clear that she wanted Luke to step in.

Nevertheless, Luke was the kind of person who sided with reason. He did not side her blindly. Instead, he asked, "What happened? Your quarrel is scaring Thea."

Thea planted her bum on the floor all of a sudden. Thea covered her face and cried so hard as if she was going to be out of breath at any moment. Luca could not bear to leave her as such, so she walked over, took her hand, and comforted her softly. "It’s okay. Everything is okay. Don't cry."

Thea continued crying although she was being comforted.

Susan noticed it and pulled Thea to her side. She scolded Allison dismissively, "If you don't want to live, I'm all for it. Why are you still here to hinder the earth’s rotation? Do you think your son will back you up now that he’s here?"

Seeing that Susan was unwilling to back down, Allison decided to change her tactics and pretended to be vulnerable. She said, "Luke, look, this house is no longer my home. She speaks ill of me to anyone who’s willing to listen to her. She’s trying to force me to leave. Please take me away from this horrible place. I don't want to live here anymore."

Susan snorted coldly and replied, "It's best if you're willing to move out so you won’t scare my baby Thea anymore. Why are you still going around scaring people with that ugly face of yours? Are you trying to scare my baby granddaughter to death? Sure enough, ugly people will do all kinds of weird things to get attention."

"You… How dare you?!" Allison was hit on her sore spot and was ready to fight Susan. However, as soon as she took a step forward, the maid who held her was frightened and held onto her even harder.

"Enough!" Luke frowned. He was extremely annoyed by what was happening.

Crawford Manor was peaceful for several years because of Allison's imprisonment. It had not been long since she got out of prison but she and Susan had started arguing again.

Their quarrels annoyed everyone. The only ones unaffected were the two parties involved.

Luca sighed helplessly as she watched the drama unfold.

Allison raised his hand and pointed at Susan. "Luke, she called me ugly. She even told the maid to tell her granddaughter. I can’t let go of this!"

Luke knew how vicious Susan's words were, but it was not his place to say anything. Although she was in the wrong, she was still Louis' mother and his elder.

"Okay, stop arguing," he scolded them with a cold tone, "I brought Dr. Craw here. She’s going to do a check-up on your skin. Do you want to consult with her?"

Allison touched her face subconsciously. There were endless wrinkles. She had applied the herbal concoction for so long but her skin did not seem to get any better. However, it also did not get worse. She quickly said, "Yes, I want to consult with her!"

"Go upstairs, then," Luke said. The quarrel could only be settled by getting Allison upstairs.

Allison stared at Susan fiercely. Susan was uncomfortable looking at her terrifying face paired with her piercing gaze.

"What are you looking at?! You’ll never have skin as smooth as mine," Susan sarcastically said. She had always been pissed about Zachary being on Allison’s side in the past because of her inability to have children and her age. She felt that it was also because she was not as good-looking as Allison. However, she could finally stand proud now that Allison’s face ended up as such.

The tables had turned and it was Allison's turn to be the unlucky one.

After she shouted that, she headed upstairs.

Luca breathed a sigh of relief. It was obvious that Susan wanted to pick a fight. She continued to trigger Allison even after she had backed down. If it were not for her quick thinking, they might have gotten into a fistfight.

If Old Master Crawford knew that they got into a fight, he would be furious.

To Old Master Crawford, what he cared about the most was family harmony. However, Susan and Allison were always like two opposite threads. They would never be on the same end.

Luca glanced at Luke and followed Allison upstairs.

At that moment, Louis had also hurried back. When he saw his frightened daughter who was still crying, he snatched the child from Susan's arms.

"Mom, why are you arguing with Allison again?!" Louis could not do anything about their incompatibility.

"From your tone of voice, you seem to think that I was the one who picked a fight? Are you my son or her son? Why do you keep siding with her?" Susan looked at him, dissatisfied.

Louis took out a tissue and wiped her daughter's tears. "I’m not siding with her. I just think that these fights are pointless. All they do is make everyone in the house feel uneasy."

"It's not my fault. She knows she’s so ugly yet still walks around the house! Do you see Thea's tears? It’s because of her horrid appearance." Susan looked at Luke as if she was in the right. "Luke, move her out of here. If you don't, it’ll cause me and Thea to have a heart attack sooner or later."
