Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2934

Susan pretended to be aggrieved as she bit her lip. "Father, Luke’s affair has already started to affect the Crawford family. I can't just stand by and watch. Besides, he hasn't even divorced Bianca…

"Bianca has a volatile personality. If this matter goes international, she might decide to return to the country. Our family hasn't had peace for even two days. We must handle this matter properly. And also, the Norman family..."

Susan met the increasingly gloomy gaze of Old Master Crawford and paused for a moment. Then, she said, "I'm doing all of this for the sake of the Crawford family."

"Mother, what do you think I should do?" As Luke watched Susan pretending to be anxious, he wore a cold and indifferent expression on his face.

"Well..." Susan hesitated, not expecting Luke to actually ask for her opinion. She pretended to ponder for a moment before continuing, "No matter what, there's still the Norman family supporting Bianca. You should apologize to the Norman family.

"You must understand their influence. If they get upset, they’ll put financial pressure on T Corporation. So, you must apologize sincerely and hold a press conference..."

"That's enough," Old Master Crawford interrupted, refusing to hear Susan's insincere suggestions. He knew well that Susan was the type that liked to ignite chaos. She just wanted Luke to let the situation worsen.

Susan's mouth opened but then closed awkwardly.

Old Master Crawford's support for Luke was irksome to her.

It reminded her when Louis was not married yet. He was a bit playful but never got into any trouble. Even so, Old Master Crawford scolded him anyway.

He even brought her into it as his mother.

Now that Luke's affair was exposed by the media, instead of scolding him, Old Master Crawford was displeased with her after she just said a few words.

Susan wanted to say that Old Master Crawford was showing favoritism, but she knew better than to voice that thought. It would only lead to another scolding.

"I'm only thinking about what's best for Luke. We all know what that woman, Luca, is like. But things are different now. Not only do we know about the affair, but the press knows about it too. We need to take this matter seriously," Susan emphasized her good intentions.

Luke slightly nodded. His eyes showed impatience. "I'll handle this matter."

Susan looked at the two men in front of her.

The old master appeared angry, and that anger seemed to be directed at her. Meanwhile, the young man wore a cold, indifferent expression as if the situation was not a big deal at all.

She stamped her foot in frustration. "Forget it, Luke. You can think of me as a meddling mother. I can't control the foolish things young people do. Even if your mother were to come back, she wouldn't be able to either."

Susan did not give Luke a chance to reply and turned to Old Master Crawford. "Father, I'll go back now. Thea is waiting for me at home."

"Since you know Thea is waiting for you at home, don't come to Crawford Manor if there's nothing urgent. It's not good to leave the child at home alone. The doctor also said that as a grandmother, you should spend more time with the child," said Old Master Crawford. He lifted his eyelids, but he was not looking at her.

He could not be bothered with his daughter-in-law, who seemed to thrive on chaos.

Louis had hired a child psychologist to conduct a psychological assessment on Thea.

The expert had pointed out some issues with the child's psychology and recommended that her parents and elders should lovingly accompany and care for the child. Otherwise, she would become increasingly withdrawn.

Old Master Crawford was aware of this matter as well.

Susan hesitated for a moment, unable to express her thoughts. In the end, she left the topic concerning Luke where it was. "I'll go upstairs to get something before heading back."

Then, she turned around and headed upstairs.

Luke noticed that it was getting late. He still had work to do when he got back. Hence, he said to Old Master Crawford, "Grandpa, I'll go back now."

"Okay. You need to resolve this matter as soon as possible," replied Old Master Crawford. He knew that Luke had already sought help from the Norman family and Wanda to force Luca to admit her true identity.
