Chapter 598 Jealousy!
There was dead silence in the villa.
Old Master Crawford was frowning while keeping quiet. He knew in his heart that it was pointless tohide Luke’s driver's license. If Luke insisted on obtaining a marriage license with Bianca, he would finda way to get his driver's license.
He had always wanted an arranged marriage for Luke, just like he did with Zachary. Old MasterCrawford believed in business interests rather than true love.
However, Old Master Crawford was acutely aware that Luke was not like his cowardly father. He wasstrong and assertive, not at all as easy to control.
Moreover, his grandson was king of the corporate world. Meanwhile, Old Master Crawford was gettingweaker as time passed.novelbin
Old Master Crawford eventually warmed up to the idea. He believed that Luke would be moreresponsible after he married Bianca.
Luke and Bianca had three children together, so if he continued to object, that would only lead hisgrandson to rebel!
Given the situation, he decided to go with the flow.
Allison had a bad feeling when she noticed how quiet Old Master Crawford was.
She clutched her chest and looked at Luke with hatred in her eyes. Are you trying to give me a heartattack? Even if you sign the marriage certificate with her, I’ll never think of her as my daughter-in-law.
Stop with this nonsense! Luke, if you want me to live, you need to go to the courthouse and divorce herimmediately!"
Bianca was downhearted when she saw the hatred in Allison's eyes.
She knew Allison had always disliked her, but she did not expect that Allison’s hatred for her went tosuch an extent.
Allison had stolen her from her biological mother when she was born and gave her a life that wasnothing compared to what she deserved.
Bianca could not figure out why Allison hated her so much that she would plot against a newborn baby.
Luke sensed that Bianca was feeling dispirited. He hugged her and said to his mother, "I will neverdivorce Bianca. If you accept it, I wont say anything; if you don't accept it, it will not change the fact thatwe’re legally married. I will never let Bianca go."
Allison shakily pointed at Luke and Bianca's fingers, saying, "Luke, are you really going to ruin ourrelationship for this woman? Why are you so obsessed with her? She's a curse to this family! Luke, youhave a bright future. You can easily find someone else to marry and have kids with."
Luke stared at his mother indifferently, got up, and walked toward her." Mom, I have something to talkto you about in private."
Allison glared at Bianca and then followed Luke to the second floor.
"Florence, I'm tired. I want to go back to my room." Old Master Crawford was beyond furious. Heignored Bianca, who stood by the side, and returned to his bedroom with the help of the caretaker.
Only Susan and Bianca were left in the huge living room.
Susan glanced at Bianca's belly with an unsettling look in her eyes.
Bianca was about to say something to ease the awkward tension between the two when Susan openedher mouth first and said in a strange tone," Look at you, you look so weak but you're able to conceivethree kids. Take good care of your children. After all, they'll eventually inherit the family fortune!"
Bianca guarded her belly, looked into Susan's eyes, and said softly, "I don't know what you're talkingabout. The child in my stomach means everything to me. I just want them to be healthy and happy.Nothing else matters." "Hoho, when your mother-in-law Allison knelt in front of me, she told me thesame thing. She begged me, saying that she just wanted to be by Zachary's side. She vowed to keepthings as they were!"
Susan became hysterical as she recalled the past. "In the end, she took away my husband and myposition, while her son snatched what was supposed to belong to my son! Now, even this piece of meatin your stomach wants to take everything from my grandson? Heh, I'm not sure if your child will make itout alive!"
Her gaze was like a dagger, weakening Bianca's nerves with each look.
Susan had an uncanny smile that gave Bianca the chills.
Bianca noticed Susan's trance-like state and feared that she would hurt her baby. She moved fartherfrom Susan and said, "You're overthinking it. I assure you that such a thing won’t happen.”
Susan saw Bianca's frightened look and suddenly returned to her usual self.
She slowly stood up from the sofa and tidied her clothes. Susan then leaned into Bianca and reachedout to touch her belly.
Bianca instinctively took a step back.
Susan's hand just missed Bianca. She curled her lips with a sneer, saying," Why? Are you afraid that I'llhurt your child? Don't worry. Although I want to teach Allison a lesson, your child is innocent. Besides,we're in Crawford Manor, what can I do to you? I have to say, Allison is a lucky b*stard..."
Then, Susan muttered something to herself and went up to the third floor while humming a melancholicsong.
Bianca stroked her stomach, her heart still fluttering with fear. She had broken out in a cold sweat.
She was not sure if she was overthinking it, but she thought that something was wrong with Susan. Itseemed that she should gently remind Louis Crawford and ask him to spend more time with his mother.Otherwise, if things went on like this, the consequences would be disastrous...
Just as Bianca was thinking about how abnormally Susan was acting, she heard a door slamming shutfrom the second floor. She heard Allison shouting 'get out' followed by her cries.
Then, she heard Luke's footsteps.
Bianca stood up and was about to go to the second floor, but before she went upstairs, she saw Lukewalking down with a stern expression.
Before she could react, Luke walked over and held her hand before saying in a serious tone, "Let's go."
Allison stood on the second floor and watched them leave.
She was struggling to swallow down all her grievances. With tears streaming down her face, shescreamed, "Luke, even if I’ve done something wrong, I’m still your mother! How dare you question mefor an outsider? Since you insist on believing in an outsider, you're no longer my son! Get out of here! Ifyou dare to step into this house again, I’ll break your leg!"
Bianca turned around and looked at Allison. She then asked Luke who was walking in front of her,"What's the matter? Why is your mother throwing a tantrum?"
Luke had an indifferent look on his handsome face. He did not bother to look back as he merelylistened to his mother's heart-piercing cries.
He mechanically led Bianca out of Crawford Manor as he thought about the conversation he had withhis mother just a moment ago.
He knew why his mother had secretly swapped Bianca back then, but...
Luke closed his eyes and fell into deep thought. He was not sure how to tell Bianca the truth.
The reason for her ill-fated life was his mother’s jealousy...
