Everyone in A City knew about Allison's extravagant lifestyle. Old Master Crawford was not close to other wealthy ladies, but he had heard rumors.
The Crawford family might be wealthy, but all that wealth had to come from somewhere.
Old Master Crawford had worked hard since he was young and had amassed a lot of wealth.
People from his generation were very thrifty, and they would save every cent whenever possible. Even until today, Old Master Crawford would not waste any money.
His clothes were expensive, but they lasted for a long time.
He always believed that clothes made the man, which was why he did not spare any expense on his clothes.
What Allison had been doing was the exact opposite of Old Master Crawford's principles.
Allison might have moved out of Crawford Manor, and her personal life was no one else's business, but all her money came from the Crawford family!
Susan looked at Allison smugly while waiting for Old Master Crawford to continue speaking.
"If you don't like the food here, you can go back to your mansion and eat there." Old Master Crawford's voice was resonant and authoritative.
His discontent toward Allison grew every day.
Even though Allison was his daughter-in-law, she seemed to have forgotten all manners ever since she moved out. She never visited him, and he would only see her if Luke was there.
That was the least harmless thing Allison had done. What was worse was that her excessive lifestyle and her arrogant manner had tarnished the reputation of the Crawford family.
As Luke's mother, Allison only brought endless trouble for him!
Old Master Crawford would have disowned Allison, if not that she was the one who raised Luke.
Allison was furious, though she could sense the change in Old Master Crawford's emotions.
She had rarely visited his father-in-law because she was busy with her beauty routines. Why would Old Master Crawford treat her so badly?
Allison wondered if Susan had told Old Master Crawford something.
Thanks to Luke, Old Master Crawford had given preferential treatment to Allison. After all, Luke was the capable and talented one, while Louis was a playboy with no skills!
Allison regretted moving out of Crawford Manor, but she had no reason to move back either.
She lived a carefree life in her mansion, free from Old Master Crawford's influence!
After Old Master Crawford said his piece, she had nothing else to say and could only eat the rest of her meal in embarrassment.
Luke said nothing and picked up a piece of roast chicken for Bianca.
Allison's expression turned unpleasant instantly. She put down her cutlery and said, "Pick a piece of egg for me, Luke."
Luke glanced coldly at her and reminded her, "The egg is right in front of you."
"Pfft!" Susan could not help but chuckle audibly.
Allison's expression sank. She did not raise Luke to have him embarrass her in front of other people!
She lost her temper, slammed the cutlery on the table once more, and stood up. The chair screeched as it scraped the floor.
"I'm done eating. Clean up my plate," she said.
"Yes," the cook said and took her plate.
Allison shot a hostile glare at Susan and Bianca, then left the dining hall.
Bianca was quite bemused by it all. She rubbed her nose, picked some food for Tommy, then continued eating her meal.
