Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3178

"Listen carefully, I'm not going to repeat myself. I'm not going back to work at T Corporation, and I'm not moving back home. You'd better give up on that idea,” repeated Louis.

Susan, trembling with anger, replied, "Louis, have you considered that I'm your mother? I'm not young anymore. What if something happens to me in the villa and you're not around—"

Louis interrupted her, "You're my mother, so of course, I won't ignore you. As long as you stop frantically trying to find me like before, I'll unblock your phone number. Besides, there's a live-in maid at home. If one isn't enough, I'll hire two more to take care of you.

"If anything happens, the maids will inform me immediately,” explained Louis. He never intended to leave Susan alone in the villa.

Susan was not young anymore. He would feel more at ease with two more maids looking after her. Plus, his company was doing well, so hiring a couple more maids was no big deal.

"Fine, if you're not coming back, then don't ever come back. I'm laying it out right now, Louis, you have until this weekend to move back. If you don't, don't come to me with any of your problems. I also won't need your help with mine any longer!"

Susan stood up abruptly.

She wanted to throw something, but this was Luke's house. She could not afford to lose her temper here, at least not in front of Luke.

With this in mind, she left with a gloomy expression without waiting for Louis' response. She did not care to wait either.

She knew that if she forced an answer out of him now, it would undoubtedly be a negative one…

Leaving would give him time to think.

Yet, for some reason, this tactic, which had always worked before, now made her feel uneasy. She sensed that Louis might not comply with her wishes this time.

Susan used to want to move back to Crawford Manor, but that was in the past. Back then, she did not want to interfere with Louis' life.

Now, after this confrontation, she no longer wanted to move back to Crawford Manor. She just wanted Louis to come home.

Only then could everything be resolved.

Susan left with a grim look on her face. Louis wanted to refuse outright as he was determined not to move back this time.

However, he realized that if he rejected her now, she might get even more emotional and cause a scene in front of all these people. There were many people out there. He did not want a family matter to ruin the atmosphere. If his mother had an outburst in front of everyone, it would indeed be embarrassing.

Therefore, Louis kept silent.

After Susan left, he finally stood up.

Aunt Neile came out of the kitchen. She let out a sigh of relief when she noticed that the living room was still intact and that Susan had not broken anything.

Then, she went back to the kitchen, finding it awkward to have witnessed the mother and son arguing. If she said anything to Louis, it would probably make him feel even more uncomfortable, so staying in the kitchen was best.

Susan left the house with a scowl. As she walked to the front yard, the smell of barbecue mixed with the aroma of wine and drinks bombarded her senses.

She had been eagerly waiting for the evening since she heard from the maid that Louis would come.

Her impatience affected her appetite, and she had not eaten much all day. Now, the delicious aroma stimulated her sense of smell and made her feel a sudden pang of hunger.

She could almost hear her body shouting, "Sit down and eat!"

However, in the end, she did not. She let out a cold snort and walked away without greeting anyone. She held her head high and left.
