Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3270

Before Old Master Mallory could speak, Old Master Crawford had already walked into the ward. He smiled and asked, “Are you here to apologize to Ms. Craw?”

“I didn’t hit her, so why should I apologize?” Old Master Mallory was fuming. This old man really had no sense of propriety!

Just like Luke, he was defending that wretched woman.

Just because she was a bit better at medicine? Just because her research could earn T Corporation some money? Did that mean she deserved to be surrounded like a superstar and protected at all costs?

“If you’re not here to apologize, then what are you here for? Don’t tell me you’re just here to check on her injuries because you’re friends with Ms. Craw?” Old Master Crawford glanced at Luca in the hospital bed. He could not help but feel sorry for her.

Her face was pale white. Even though there were no obvious external injuries, a head injury was no joke.

A concussion was no pleasant experience.

Old Master Mallory snorted, stood up, and said to Luke, “Since you think there’s nothing to say, don’t blame me for not being polite. The relationship between the Mallory and Crawford families has also been affected by you. Don’t blame the Mallory family for being unreasonable in the future!”

“Oh, now you’re threatening us?” Old Master Crawford dropped his smile. It was inconvenient for Luke to retort to Old Master Mallory.

It was not the same for him, though.

Being from the same generation, it would be awkward if either side lost an argument, and there was no notion of respecting elders in this context.

“I say, Old Master Mallory, wasn’t it your daughter-in-law who hit Ms. Craw? Why is the family of the culprit acting so unreasonably in front of the victim?”

“I can’t be bothered to argue with you.” Old Master Mallory rolled his eyes.

“Don’t leave. Keep talking. Let’s see how you justify the actions of the culprit.” Old Master Crawford signaled to Mr. Griffin.

Mr. Griffin closed the ward door and stood at the entrance.

When Old Master Mallory’s butler saw this, he tried to step forward.

However, Old Master Crawford’s cane blocked Old Master Mallory.

Luca opened her eyes and saw the scene, feeling speechless.

It felt like she was watching a movie. If these two old men were a bit younger, they might have the charisma of movie stars. The scene could even be mistaken for something out of a movie.

Luca did not expect Old Master Crawford to disregard the friendship between their families to stand up for her because she was injured.

“Old Master Crawford, there’s really no need for you to go this far,” said Old Master Mallory. He glared at them with frustration when he was being stopped from leaving.

“There’s no need? Let me put it this way. I wasn’t planning to pursue this matter too much. The traffic police can deal with it as they see fit. But let me make one thing clear. If I think Ms. Craw has been wronged, I'll report the kidnapping.

"So, Mallory, don’t protect someone with a mental illness just for your own sake. She’s still your daughter-in-law. If she’s sick, she should get treated. Don’t you agree?” Old Master Crawford had already learned the details of the incident through Jason.

He also knew that Percy planned to send Karen to a mental institution.

Old Master Mallory glared at Old Master Crawford with his beard bristling, “Crawford, since you've put it this way, I have nothing more to say. If the Crawford family faces any issues in the future, don’t you shift the blame onto our Mallory family!”

“We never planned to shift the blame onto you. It seems like you’re trying to pin it on us,” Old Master Crawford replied dismissively.

“You!” Old Master Mallory, fed up with Old Master Crawford, turned to Mr. Griffin and said in a cold voice, “Move aside, I’m leaving.”

Mr. Griffin glanced at Old Master Crawford for approval before stepping aside for Old Master Mallory. “Please take care.”

Old Master Mallory stormed out in a huff.

Old Master Crawford looked cheerfully at Luca. Once the others had left, he asked with concern, “Luca, how are you feeling?”

“Much better. Thank you for your concern,” replied Luca.

“Grandpa, why are you here?” asked Luke.

“I’m not mad at you. I’m mad at this kid!” Old Master Crawford could feel a wave of anger in him when he looked at his grandson.

Luke could not even protect his own wife. How useless!

Luke felt that his grandfather’s visit was just to undermine him. He replied helplessly, “Grandpa, Luca needs to rest. If you keep this up, she won’t be able to.”

“Are you trying to kick me out?” Old Master Crawford widened his eyes in displeasure.

“No, Grandpa. Please stay. Do you want some water?” Luca quickly interjected.

“You’re still speaking up for him!” Old Master Crawford shook his head helplessly, but there was a smile on his face.

He was relieved to see that the couple's relationship was still strong.

“There’s nothing to worry about. Just calm down,” Luca soothed him.

Luke said bluntly, “Grandpa, are you really making a patient like Luca comfort you?”

“I don’t mind it at all. What’s the problem? Are you unhappy about it?” Old Master Crawford replied defiantly.

Luke did not know how to retort. His grandfather was getting more shameless by the day.

“Alright, alright.” Old Master Crawford waved his hand and said, “I won’t waste any more of your time or disturb Luca’s rest. Once she’s feeling better, you two should bring the kids over for a meal.”

“Sure.” Luke nodded in agreement.

“Sounds good,” Luca also agreed.

Old Master Crawford stood up with his cane.

Luke also got up to see him out.
