Female Novel
Chapter 2391
Louis turned around when he was helping Susan up. He silently mouthed the word 'sorry' to Luke.
Luke shook his head to tell him that he did not mind it.
It was wrong to bring a stranger into the house. Even if Susan was deliberately finding an excuse tostart the fight, he could not say that she was being unreasonable this time.
Allison did not think twice before doing something, and it had made everyone unhappy.
After Louis helped Susan and returned to her room, Mr. Griffin came forward and said, “Young MasterLuke, Madam Allison is in her bedroom now."novelbin
"I know." Luke headed in the direction of the stairs.
Upstairs.
When Lanie headed to Old Master Crawford's study with Rainie and Tommy, they ran into Sophian.
"Miss, may I know who you are?" Lanie had a good memory. He remembered that no maid in CrawfordManor looked like her.
"I'm a guest of the Crawford family. You're..." Sophian looked at the three little children in front of her.They looked familiar, especially the two boys.
Were they the children of the Crawford family?
Sophian suddenly remembered that Luke was married and had children.
Could they be Luke's kids?
Sophian looked at how pretty those little kids were. She could not help but ponder. Although the kidsresembled Luke, they probably did not just inherit Luke's genes. It seemed like their mother was abeautiful woman too.
Would she be able to defeat her?
Sophian touched her face. Although she had plastic surgery, it looked natural on her. If she did not tellanyone about it, no one would know that she had gotten plastic surgery.
She should be confident!
"Miss, you're a guest of the Crawford family, but why don't you recognize us?" Tommy smiled andasked, but there was a hint of mockery in his words.
Tommy was a little child. Tommy relied on his instincts and how much he liked someone to figure outwhat kind of person they were. He was not fond of the person in front of him, Sophian.
"I'm sorry. I'm not familiar with the Crawford family members. Your father..." Sophian squatted downand got down to the kids' eye level.
That trick could win the children's favor.
If they were really Luke's kids, then Sophian should build a good relationship with them. She would beable to leave a good impression on Luke by being kind to the kids.
Carrying the family lineage meant a lot to a big and wealthy family like the Crawford family.
If she successfully became Luke's wife, she would have to raise Luke's children. It would make thingseasier for her in the future if she could build a good relationship with the kids now.
Sophian did not have to please these little kids once she was pregnant with Luke's baby.
Lanie took a step back and said to Rainie and Tommy, "Let's look for Great-grandpa."
"Okay, Lanie." Rainie nodded.
Lanie and Rainie were more experienced. When their mother was still studying abroad and did notknow they existed, many women tried to please them. They were just like the woman in front of them.
They wanted to replace her mother and become their father's wife.
Lanie and Rainie would never let such a thing happen. That was why they were experienced inhandling such situations. They could not be fooled easily when they were young back then. Now thatthey had grown up, people were still using the same way to fool them. However, it had become evenmore difficult to fool them.
Their mother could only be Bianca, who was also Luca.
Sophian was surprised that the kids were not buying it. They were being rude for wanting to leave rightaway.
The great-grandpa they mentioned just now should be Luke's grandpa.
Sophian looked at them from behind. She suddenly recalled that there was a family photo hanging onthe wall in the main hall when she followed Allison into the house just now. The three kids were in thephoto too.
The three kids were standing in front of Luke. They were probably his children.
Sophian rose to her feet. When she was wondering if she should go after them, she remembered thatthe kids mentioned they were looking for Old Master Crawford.
Although the old master had a pair of cloudy eyes, she could see how deep his gaze was. It was asthough he could see through everything.
Besides, the old master treated her coldly. It was not how he would treat his guests.
Sophian dared not to put herself in trouble and piss him off.
She had no choice but to head upstairs at the thought of this.
Allison's bedroom.
Luke pushed the door open and walked into her bedroom. Allison was giving instructions to the maid toplace the things she had brought here.
Allison heard the door open. She turned around and saw Luke. She said, "You're here."
Her voice was as cold as ice. It sounded nothing like a mother who was surprised to see her son.
Luke's gaze fell on Allison's face.
Allison was not wearing a hat and a mask. The wrinkles on her face could be clearly seen under thelight.
The deep creases on her face were like the folds on a witch's face in those cartoon shows. They wereso deep that they were like valleys.
Allison was unhappy that Luke was staring at her like that even though Luke had seen her skincondition when it was worse. She said, “It's rude to stare at people like that."
“How did you come over here?" Luke withdrew his gaze and looked at the maid who was helpingAllison to tidy things up. Then, he glanced at the bed full of clothes. It was a mess.
Allison liked to mess things up and leave her mess for others to clean up.
"This is my home. I'm the madam of the house too. Why? Am I not allowed to come back here?" Allisonsat on the dressing chair and deliberately crossed her legs gracefully.
The only thing was that her image had nothing to do with elegance now.
"I've already arranged everything for you at the small villa. Grandpa isn't happy to see you here." Atrace of iciness flashed across Luke's eyes. If someone were to say they were mother and son, no onewould believe it when they heard their conversation.
"I came back to celebrate the new year and spend some time with your grandpa. What's the point ofstaying at the small villa alone? I still care about Old Master Crawford, and I want to fulfill my duties ashis daughter-in-law. Am I not allowed to do that?" Allison toyed with the skincare products on thedressing table.
Sophian had recommended these skin care products to her.
Allison's skin condition was much better after she used them, but it had no effects on her dry skin.
"You can celebrate the new year here, but you brought a stranger into the house. There are so manymaids in Crawford Manor. Are they not enough to serve you? I'm arranging a chauffeur to send thatwoman back to the small villa now," said Luke. He took his phone out and was about to makearrangements.
Allison snatched Luke's phone from him and yelled at him, "You have no idea that Sophian can savemy life!"
Save her life?
Luke raised his brows. Her face was already terrible enough, but it did not put her life in danger. It wasmerely a facial treatment. How could that woman save Allison's life?
"Nonsense." Luke refused to believe it. Johann had also told him that as long as Allison's face did notcontinue to deteriorate, she would not have the risk of getting an infection. It would not threaten her lifeif she was not infected.
"Sophian can do the facial treatment for me to calm my allergies. What should I do about my skin if yousend her back to the small villa? Besides, she came back alone to celebrate the new year with me. Shecame to save my life, but you're sending her back to the villa and letting her celebrate the new yearalone. Does that make any sense to you?"
