Chapter 2383
"Ms. Allison, please get into the car first. Let me put the luggage in the car trunk," said Sophian.
Allison was satisfied with Sophian's performance. She nodded, then she opened the rear door and gotinto the car.
Sophian dragged the two big and heavy suitcases to the back of the car.
She lifted her luggage and put it in the car trunk first. Although the suitcase was big, there was notmuch important stuff in it. Hence, she could put it in easily.
Sophian was planning to put Allison's luggage in the car trunk too.
Sophian was well prepared as she had experienced the weight of it earlier. She took a deep breath,bent down, and was about to lift the suitcase. However, she staggered and almost scratched the carwith the suitcase.
Sophian was so flabbergasted that she broke into a cold sweat.
It was nothing if she scratched the car, but it would be a big deal if she left a bad impression on Luke.
Sophian looked at Allison, who was sitting in the car and warming herself up. She took everything forgranted. Although she was still smiling, she was secretly complaining that Allison had no idea how tobe grateful.
Allison was dissatisfied with Sophian being slow. She rolled down the window, stuck her head out, andsaid, "Sophian, hurry up."
“Okay, Ms. Allison. In a second,” replied Sophian. Then, she clenched her teeth, lifted Allison'sluggage, and placed it in the car trunk.
There was a loud thud, and Sophian was out of her breath.
Allison was unhappy and said, “Sophian, there are many expensive items in my luggage. Be carefulwith it.”
"Don't worry, Ms. Allison. I've already placed it in the car trunk." Sophian was upset, but she could notsay anything about it. After she closed the car trunk, she got into the backseat from the other side.
Luke had never looked her in the eye.
Allison watched Sophian get into the car. Only then did she say to Luke, "Let's go back home."
Luke remained silent and drove off.
While they were on their way back, Allison realized that it was not the way to Crawford Manor. Hence,she asked, "Luke, where are you taking me?"
"I've already asked Mr. Griffin to clean up your villa. I'm sending you there now," replied Luke. He didnot give her a choice.
"Villa? No, I want to go back to Crawford Manor. I came back to celebrate the new year. What's thepoint of sending me to that small villa to spend the new year there? Besides, there's nothing in the villa.No maids will be there to take care of me. I'm not going there." Allison was against the idea of going tothe villa.
She thought something had happened to Luke back then. That was why she bought the small villa.After all, her son went missing. She would lose her status in the Crawford family.
Moreover, she did not want Old Master Crawford to keep an eye on her. She was even more unwillingto see the gloating expression on Susan's face. That was why she moved out of Crawford Manor. Afterall, Old Master Crawford would not give her anything if not for Luke.
Although there was Lanie and the others, the kids had a mother, and they were not close with hereither. Allison would naturally not cut the branch she was sitting on.
However, things were different now.
Luke was still around.
Her son was still here, and she could still compete with Susan in the Crawford family. Allison had toshow up and let Susan know she was the lady of the Crawford family.
"Mr. Griffin has already arranged a maid for you at the villa. The maid will get you everything you need.Just stay there first." Luke did not give Allison a chance to argue with him. He was not planning tomake a detour.
Allison frowned and looked at the street view that was constantly passing by. She could not help butthrow a tantrum. She cried out, "Luke, do you even think of me as your mother?"
"Would you like to return to Seoul now?" Luke slammed the brake. The car came to a halt on the road.
There was no car behind him. Hence, he did not have to worry that he would cause traffic congestion.
"I—" Allison was about to speak.
"I've already made arrangements. If you're unhappy with them, I can book your flight back to Seoulnow. The hospital in Seoul gave me a call. They told me that they've already come up with a detailedsurgery plan," Luke interrupted.
What Allison was concerned about was mentioned in the latter half. Her eyes lit up as her body leanedforward. Then, she asked, "Really?"
"Yes. The hospital just called me this morning," replied Luke.
"Don't lie to me." Allison kept her guard up. Even though the hospital did not tell her that they could notperform the surgery on her, they did not tell her about their plans either.
"I didn't hear anything about it either..." Sophian sat beside Allison, trying her best to let Luke noticeher. At the same time, she did not want Allison to return to Seoul now.
Otherwise, she would not have the chance to get closer to Luke.
"You can ask them if you don't believe me," replied Luke. He looked at Allison in the rearview mirrorand asked, "Would you like to return now? I've checked. There's another flight to Seoul in two hours."
"Not at the moment. I told you I want to celebrate the new year here. I'll go back there for the surgeryafter the new year," replied Allison. Her problem would be solved if the surgery hospital truly had asurgery planned for her. Hence, she was not in a hurry to go back.
Luke continued to drive and headed straight. Then, he said, “In this case, listen to me."
Allison heard that and stopped insisting on going back to Crawford Manor.
Even though returning to Crawford Manor was a bad decision, Allison wanted to fight for the chance toreturn there. If Luke did not give her the chance to do so, then she should think of a way herself. Shereplied, "Fine. Then arrange a chauffeur for me. It's been a long time since I've driven. How will I go outif I don't have a chauffeur?"
Luke glanced at her face wrapped in bandages. Was she thinking of going out in such a state?
"Sure," Luke agreed. It would be great if Allison was willing to use the chauffeur he arranged for her.
He would be able to know her whereabouts.
However, his subordinate would have to put up with Allison.
His subordinate would have to stay put and wait for Allison's orders during the new year.
After Luke arrived at Allison's villa entrance, he said, "We're here. Get out of the car."
Allison widened her eyes and asked, "Aren't you sending us in?"
"The fingerprint door lock still has your fingerprint saved in it. Just go in. The servant is waiting for you.Just look for her if you need anything," Luke said coldly. There were barely any changes in his gaze. Itwas calm.
However, there was a hint of impatience for Allison in the bottom of his eyes.novelbin
"You've already come this far. What's wrong with sending us in? Besides, it's snowing heavily. Do youwant to see me freezing in the snow?" Allison sat in the car, refusing to get out.
Luke tapped his fingers on the steering wheel, trying to be patient. Then, he said, "I need to go back tothe office to handle some work matters."
"Do you think I have no idea that everyone in the office is taking a break now?" Allison refuted.
"Have I ever taken a break?" Luke questioned her.
Allison was rendered speechless.
Previously, no matter what kind of festive holidays it was, there were always documents on Luke'soffice desk.
After all, those festive holidays were celebrated in A City and not in other countries. T Corporation'sbusiness had connections with numerous enterprises in the country as well as the countries abroad.Even though it was a holiday in Imperial Capital, the same could not be said for every other country.
Luke noticed that Allison was still reluctant to get out of the car. He picked up his phone and made acall. "Take a blanket with you and come to the entrance."
