Jason felt a tingling feeling on his scalp when he heard what Allison said.
Her commanding tone was the same as before.
He did not agree to her request right away but instead asked her, "Ms. Tanner, is there any reason you’re looking for the boss so urgently?"
Allison did not want to tell him that someone scammed her out of all of her money. After all, Jason had a decent relationship with Luke. She said with a firm tone, "It's none of your business. It’s something important, so tell him to give me a call now."
Jason was not that stupid to ask her why she needed him to relay the message.
From what he knew of Luke's temperament, he would not be bothered to talk to Allison if he could block her number.
What was more, Allison would never reach out to Luke through him. She would only reach out to him every time she could not get in contact with Luke.
Jason glanced at Sue, who was next to him. She rolled over as if their conversation miffed her.
He lifted the blanket, got out of bed, walked out of the bedroom, and closed the door before he said to Allison, "Ms. Tanner, it’s likely that Mr. Crawford has already gone to bed at this hour. I’ll pass him the message tomorrow morning."
"I said now!" Allison was driven up the wall. ‘How dare a mere employee bargain with me?!’
"I'm sorry. Not only is it the holidays but it's also after hours. I can't help you convey your message to Mr. Crawford now. If you need to talk to him urgently, you can contact him yourself." Jason had a good temper, but his attitude became unwelcoming considering how poorly Allison acted.
"You..." Allison did not expect Jason to turn her down. It was driving her up the wall.
Sophian knew that something was wrong. It would be impossible to contact Luke if she offended Jason. She threw caution to the wind and said loudly, "Mr. Doyle, hello. Please pass the message to Mr. Crawford tomorrow morning, then. Thank you and rest well."
Allison glared at her.
Sophian had no choice but to hang up the phone. She explained, "Ms. Allison, if you offend Mr. Crawford's assistant now, no one will be able to contact Mr. Crawford for you."
Allison threw the phone on the coffee table.
Sophian sighed, picked up the phone, and said, "Ms. Allison, it's fairly late. We'll just wait until tomorrow."
Allison snorted coldly to express her dissatisfaction. "He's just an assistant. How dare he speak to me like that?!"
Sophian felt helpless and cast down.
‘How did Allison survive in Crawford Manor before I met her? How did she fight against the Crawfords and Madam Susan with her violent temper? Could it be that she always used Luke as a shield to survive in Crawford Manor?’
"Ms. Allison, you’re asking him for a favor. It's not that he doesn't want to help, but you need to consider that he’s Mr. Crawford's assistant. It's late. If Mr. Crawford has gone to bed and he disturbs him, he’ll have pissed off his boss… That's why he turned you down." Sophian persuaded her patiently.
Everyone would understand the logic.
Allison did not pay Jason his salary. He would not offend Luke for Allison's sake!
Allison finally calmed down as she processed what Sophian said.
Sophian was right.
Even so, the anxiety she felt did not allow her to calm down.
Sophian knew that Allison would not be able to sleep tonight, so she suggested, "Didn't you bring the sleeping pills prescribed by the doctor when you came back? Why don't you take one, rest well, and talk to Mr. Doyle again tomorrow?"
"Okay." Allison was persuaded by her and gradually calmed down.
Although she still could not calm down in her heart, she knew that she could not do anything but rest.
Sophian breathed a sigh of relief seeing that Allison had stopped throwing a tantrum. She was afraid that Allison would go all out and burn the bridge with the Crawfords and everyone related to them.
