Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1804

"What happened? Tell me about it," Susan asked quickly. She did not intend to let go of anything she could use against Luke because this might be the evidence she needed to bring him down and make Louis come to power in the future.

"Tell you? Are you able to tell him off?" Madam Mallory wondered. After all, Susan was not Luke's biological mother.

"Why not? No matter what, I'm still his mother. When Allison doesn't know how to educate her son, I’m the one who steps forward," Susan said.

Madam Mallory nodded. No matter what, Susan was the legal wife of Zachary Crawford.

Even though his biological mother was around, Luke still addressed Susan as ‘Mother.’

"Doesn't Luke already have a wife? I found out that he’s very close to Luca Craw and there’s a high chance that they’re living together," Madam Mallory said. She did not mention what had happened the day prior.

After all, she impulsively wanted to kidnap Luca. It was illegal, so she did not want to say anything about it.

When Susan heard that, she lost interest. "Luca Craw? It’s not news that they’re close. Luca has won the hearts of the three children. If you say that they’re living together, that's possible… But there’s nothing anyone can do about this matter, not me nor Old Master Crawford. We can’t be involved."

"Old Master Crawford doesn't care? How is that possible?" Madam Mallory was surprised. She only spoke about this so that Allison or Susan would know about it and relay the news to Old Master Crawford. Her goal was for them to restrain Luke.

She was clear that out of everyone in the Crawford family, only Old Master Crawford could do something about Luke.

"Why not? Let me tell you, Luke moved out with the kids, and Old Master Crawford agreed to it. His agreement says everything. Old Master Crawford is not stupid. When they moved out, he must have investigated everything and knew that Luke might live with Luca. Even so, he still agreed. This matter is not a secret in the Crawford family." Susan took a sip of tea and suddenly lost interest in the conversation.

She once wanted to win over Luca but was turned down, so Susan had no other means to go about it.

"This is ridiculous!" Madam Mallory could not believe that Old Master Crawford had given his agreement for Luke to move in with Luca.

‘Is he not afraid that the reputation of the Crawford family will be ruined if the reporters find out about it?’

The reason why Madam Mallory did not get the reporters involved but instead went to the Crawford family to inform them was that she did not want to make a big deal out of it. To some extent, the fate of the Crawford and Mallory families was interrelated.

Therefore, when it was not absolutely necessary, she did not want the Crawford family to be involved in a scandal.

"This family is crazy. Since that woman got out of prison, it's gotten even crazier." Susan could not help complaining. She knew that Madam Mallory wanted the Crawford family to control Luke, so she thought of a way to go about it.

"How can we let Luke be like this? What about his wife who’s abroad? If that woman sticks around, won’t he just be like his father?" Madam Mallory rambled and mentioned the Crawford family’s playboy, Zachary Crawford.

Susan's mood sank.

Madam Mallory pursed her lips and realized she had said something wrong. She touched Susan's hand and said, "Sorry, I didn't mean to mention him."

"It doesn't matter. He’s been gone for so long. I'm somewhat glad that he only had Allison. If there were two more, I won’t be able to stay in this home any longer." Susan felt hatred in her heart, but she could not show it. Hence, she acted generously.

Madam Mallory took a sip of tea. Seeing that she had not achieved any purpose in her visit today, she did not want to waste any more of her time. After all, the mess left behind by Pierre had her occupied.
