“Let’s keep going!” Tommy said. “I’m determined to stick a strip of paper on Lanie's face today!"
Then, they started another round of chess.
Once again, Lanie won, and this time, Rainie came in last.
She took the initiative to stick a paper strip on her own face.
“Lanie is just too good. Even if we play until tonight, we’re never going to beat him…” said Tommy, feeling a little defeated.
“Yeah, Lanie’s way too good,” Rainie agreed, puffing out her cheeks and blowing upward. However, she was not that competitive, so she still looked cheerful even after losing.
Luke came downstairs and saw Luca and the two kids with paper strips stuck on their faces. He paused for a moment before looking at Lanie, whose face was clean. He quickly understood what was going on.
“Daddy! Come help me. You’ve got to help me beat Lanie!” Tommy spotted his father and immediately saw him as his savior. He bounced over and tried to pull him to sit down. “Daddy, Lanie is too good. I can’t beat him at all.”
Luke looked at his youngest son, then said with a hint of helplessness, “Just one round.”
“Why only one?” Tommy glanced at the time. It was still early, and it was not close to dinner yet.
Luca asked, “Do you have work to do?”
“No, I need to head back to Crawford Manor later,” Luke replied. “My mother... She has caused a bit of trouble in Seoul.”
Luca was surprised. Allison got into trouble in Seoul?
Suddenly, she remembered that Allison was coming back, and it all made sense. She must have gotten into trouble, which was why she was rushing back home.
“Did Old Master Crawford ask you to go back to talk about it?” asked Luca, already sensing that with Allison’s difficult personality, the problem would not be easy to solve.
”Yes.” Luke nodded helplessly.
Luca let out a sigh, then turned to the kids. “Looks like we’ll have to stop playing. Let’s all go to Crawford Manor together.”
Tommy, despite his competitive spirit, was a good kid and understood there was probably a serious issue. He nodded, took the paper strips off his face, and started helping clean up the chessboard.
After tidying up, Luca took the kids upstairs to change into fresh clothes, and soon, they were off to Crawford Manor.
In the car, Luke made a few calls while driving.
Luca listened in and pieced together what had happened.
Allison hit someone at the hospital in Seoul. Specifically, the lead surgeon. Now, the hospital was looking to hold her accountable. She wanted to come back to A City, hoping the Crawford family would help her handle the situation.
Luca could not help but secretly let out a sigh.
Luke had gone out of his way to help Allison by providing a lot of money for her medical treatment in Seoul, yet she still managed to cause such a mess.
People said kids were debts to be repaid, but in Allison’s case, it felt like the mother was the one making her son pay off her debts.
Luca knew that if this situation was not handled properly, it could have serious consequences. The international impact could leave its effects on T Corporation.
The three kids were quietly whispering in the back after overhearing Luke's phone conversation.
“Grandma actually hit someone? No wonder she's in a rush to come back. What kind of punishment is she going to get?” asked Tommy.
Lanie replied, “If it isn't too serious, she might just have to pay a fine. But if it's really bad, she could go to prison.”
