Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2738

Susan let out a sigh of relief as a surge of anger boiled inside her. She could not help but lash out at Louis, "Are you crazy? Have you been bewitched by Luke?"

"Mom!" Yuri's headache worsened. Louis was still annoyed, but he refrained from causing a scene for Thea’s sake.

If Susan continued to stir things up like this, Yuri knew he would not be able to suppress the urge to go mad.

Louis glared at Susan with a darkened expression.

It gave Susan the creeps. She even had a feeling that she would be taken to see Old Master Crawford right away if she did not calm things down.

"Hmph," Susan snorted coldly. Then, she turned around and headed to her bedroom.

The door was slammed shut with a loud bang.

Yuri heaved a sigh, knowing what had really happened just now. It was Susan's fault, but Louis had chosen to confront her on this special day. It was a bad idea to do so.

Even though they were not holding a big party, the guests who would be coming today were either their relatives or close friends...

"Mom shouldn’t have done that. But she’s just unhappy about Luke. Besides, she was forced to leave Crawford Manor, and she’s upset about it. Let's just let things slide. Your grandfather won’t be pleased if you make a fuss about it," Yuri whispered to him, trying to calm him down.

Old Master Crawford came across Louis’ mind.

Not only did he have to protect Thea’s image, but he also had to save Old Master Crawford’s face.

If they argued about this in front of the old master and made people laugh at them, it would only tarnish the family's reputation.

He was too angry to consider this just now.

"Alright." Louis calmed down.

Whether or not he remained in the T Corporation, he had to protect the Crawford family's reputation as long as he was one of the Crawford family.

A maid approached them and reminded, "Sir, Madam, Mr. Griffin asked me to inform you that most of the guests have arrived."

The Crawford family's butler was helping them out today. Mr. Griffin saw the list of guests invited by Louis back then. Therefore, he was responsible for greeting and entertaining the guests to ease the couple's burden.

"Okay," Louis' voice was hoarse.

"Pour him a cup of tea," Yuri instructed the maid.

"Okay, Madam." The maid hurried downstairs.

"I don't drink tea..." Louis planned to go to the front yard to greet the guests. As the host, he should not stay away for too long.

Yuri reminded him, "Your throat is already hoarse. Your voice gets hoarse whenever you’re angry. You wouldn’t want Old Master Crawford to find out what happened just now, right? Drink a cup of tea to soothe your throat before going out. It’ll take you a few minutes."

"Let’s go downstairs," said Louis as he held Yuri's hand. They walked past Susan's bedroom door. He did not knock on her door.

Susan was emotionally driven now. He did not ask her to come downstairs because he did not want her to make things worse.

Moreover, she refused to meet the old master just now. It was probably because she was afraid that he would get mad at her and not let her return to Crawford Manor. Hence, Louis was sure she would not vent her dissatisfaction on the spot.

The two of them made their way down the stairs together.

"Aren't you going to call Mom?" Yuri asked in a low voice.

"She's still mad." Louis’ face turned slightly grim when he mentioned Susan. He could not bring himself to smile at the moment.

"Okay..." Yuri did not like to get involved in the conflicts between the mother and son.
