Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 192

The caretaker immediately did what she was told.

Her fingers were trembling as she dialed Luke's number. No one picked up the first call, and the second call was also unanswered!

However, the call went through every time.

After countless calls, the call was eventually picked up.

"Sir, Old Master Crawford had a heart attack and is not in the hospital. Please go and visit him!" The caretaker said hoarsely.

A City Hospital.

Old Master Crawford lay on a bed. The doctors managed to resuscitate him, and his vitals were returning to normal.

Allison was sitting on a chair next to bed, guiltily wiping away her tears.

Susan and Louis were informed about the news and got to the hospital as quickly as they could.

As Zachary's second son, Louis had a deep affection for his grandfather. After all, he had spent most of his time as a child with Old Master Crawford.

Old Master Crawford might be strict, but he was a responsible grandparent.

In fact, he was closer to his grandfather than his father, who had passed away from illness when he was young.

There was another reason why Louis was grateful to his grandfather.

Back then, when his father wanted to abandon Susan, his lawfully wedded wife, and marry Allison, Old Master Crawford did not agree to it. He made every effort to oppose his son and ensured that Susan and Louis had a place to stay in Crawford Manor.

He vaguely remembered that the Armstrong family was on the brink of ruin when his father wanted to divorce his mother.

If not for Old Master Crawford, Susan and Louis would have been mercilessly driven out of the household and left on the streets to be publicly condemned, while Allison would have reaped every benefit.

Louis had always been grateful to Old Master Crawford, though he kept it hidden under his rebellious exterior. He had always wanted to repay his grandfather, but unfortunately, he did not have any business sense.

On the other hand, his elder brother was like a heaven-sent gift, a perfect heir to Crawford Industries.

Too bad that Luke's birth mother was despicable.

Louis's brows were tightly knotted as he looked at the old man lying on the hospital bed gasping for air. He thought that Old Master Crawford should have lived to a hundred years old, free from disease and pain.

Meanwhile, Susan glanced at Allison, who was still crying, and thought that there was more to the incident than meets the eye. "I thought that Father was still fine when I left the house earlier this morning. Why did he suddenly suffer a heart attack?" She asked.

Susan knew very well Allison's character! Would that despicable woman cry so hard because of Old Master Crawford's heart attack?

Not unless the sun rose from the west!

There must be some other unmentionable reason!

The VIP hospital ward was very spacious. On the other side of the bed and cabinets was a set of couches and a coffee table, like a living room.

Luke was silent ever since he stepped into the hospital.

From the time Old Master Crawford was wheeled into the emergency room, across the unbearably long stretch of time when the doctors tried to resuscitate him, until he was wheeled back out and into the ward.

In the silent ward, no one answered Susan's question. The nurse attending to Old Master Crawford was gently massaging the back of his hand so that he did not feel any discomfort from the IV drip.
