Allison rolled her eyes at her. “He already came in.”Sophina felt like there was thunder and lightning above her head. She had only one thought—she was doomed…Allison would certainly not protect her. “Ms. Allison, didn’t we change the password? How did he get in…”Before Allison could even answer her, Luke’s voice came from outside the door. “Fingerprint lock.”Clang! Sophian was so frightened that the bowl in her hands fell to the floor, and white mask liquid spilled all over, staining her long skirt.Luke pushed the door open and walked in while holding Luca’s hand.He even had Gale behind him.Allison looked toward the door and noticed that they were holding hands, so she looked Luca up and down.Was this the woman Susan was talking about?The reason why Allison knew that Luke had another woman was that Susan had mentioned it while quarreling with her. She accused Luke of being ungrateful like her.That was how she found out.Allison frowned and asked, “You came in with
Luke looked indifferently at Allison. There was no trace of affection. It was as if he was looking at a stranger.He knew that Allison said that to wash her hands off the matter.However, she brought Sophian back, and she would not dare to do anything without Allison’s permission."Since you say that, you’re telling me that she did it of her own volition?" Luke gave Allison another chance to admit to what she did although he knew that she would never."I didn't do it. I thought you were just drunk last night." Allison crossed her hands in front of her chest to try to make herself look more assertive.Luke's gaze turned cold, and he did not bother to look at Sophian. "Gale.""Boss, what do you need?" Gale stepped forward and knew that he was about to be given instructions.He knew that Luke would not have brought him along for no reason."Send her to the police station," Luke said.Allison frowned. ‘Why is he involving the police?’Sophian was taken aback. She staggered and ut
Allison picked up the nail file on the coffee table and filed her nails. She rolled her eyes when she heard what Sophian said."New Year holidays aren’t over yet. Why are you rushing to go back?""I'm worried that Mr. Crawford will retaliate against me..." Sophian had no choice but to express her worries."If I can save you once, I can save you the second time. You weren’t sent to the police station today, and you won't be sent to the police station any time soon. The living conditions in A City are much better than in South Korea. I don’t want to go back so soon." Allison did not intend to give up celebrating the new year in A City.Moreover, she had a much more comfortable life here than abroad as she had a maid to take care of her.Since Allison was unwilling to return to Korea, Sophian had to give up the idea as she had no extra money to buy the expensive international airline ticket.Allison touched her dry face and commanded Sophian, "Go and prepare a mask for me. My skin f
Allison handed the phone to Sophian after she unlocked it.Sophian took it and dialed the maid's number.The call did not get through...Sophian felt awkward and handed the phone back to Allison."What's wrong?" Allison frowned when she saw Sophian’s expression."Ms. Allison, your number seems to have been blocked too,” Sophian said cautiously. The phone in her hand was like a hot potato. Allison did not take it, so she put it on the sofa."I got blocked too? How is that possible?!" Allison could not believe it. She wiped her hands on a tissue, picked up her phone, and called the maid.She finally believed that she was blocked when she heard a mechanical female voice.Sophian did not speak. She was waiting for Allison’s next order.Allison called the butler.The butler did not block her number, so he answered. "Madam Allison, good afternoon.""What happened to the maid you sent over? Did she block me? Does she not want her job anymore?" Allison was frustrated."Master Luke
Allison stood on the side of the road and waited for more than 20 minutes before she got a taxi.After Allison and Sophian got into the car, Allison told the driver the destination and the taxi headed toward Luke's villa complex."Ms. Allison, are you sure that we’ll be fine?" Sophian picked up her phone and looked for Luke's neighborhood.It was a high-end community. No one could enter without the consent of the tenant.Therefore, many celebrities and wealthy businessmen loved to live in the area as their privacy was guaranteed."What's wrong with me going to look for my son?" Allison said. The taxi seat was not comfortable, so she leaned against the seat and closed her eyes. She was fuming on the inside.Sophian kept quiet for the rest of the journey.After half an hour, the taxi arrived at the gate of the community.Allison paid and they got out of the car. They were stopped by the security guard before they could walk in. "No idlers are allowed to enter.""How do you know
"You!" Allison was not so stupid as to ring the intercom and inform Luke that she was at the door.The security guard noticed her sharp gaze and wondered.‘Mr. Crawford’s so outstanding, but why does his mother look so old?’Allison snorted coldly and put on her sunglasses.Sophian's lips were pale from being in the cold, so she said softly, "Ms. Allison, I'm afraid we won't be able to get in today. Why don't we go back? You haven't had lunch yet."Allison crossed her hands in front of her chest. ‘When have I been so embarrassed?! If I leave now, the security guard will look down on me!’She insisted on getting her way. "Didn't she go get groceries? I'll wait for her to come back. I don't believe that she won't come back."The security guard could not help but chuckle when he heard what she said.Allison heard him and turned to stare at the security guard with an arrogant expression. "What are you laughing at?""Nothing." The security guard did not say anything more.Their
Allison was fuming, but she eventually left while cursing at Luke.She had not had lunch, so she brought Sophian to a nearby restaurant.Allison did not want to be watched like a monkey, so she booked a private room.In the private room.Sophian handed her a glass of lemonade and said, "Ms. Allison, don't be mad.""How can I not be mad? I'm his mother, yet he’s treating me like this. I..." Allison took a sip of the lemonade that Sophian handed her.Her quality of life was getting worse by the day.Sophian listened to her speak in silence.After the past few interactions, she found that their mother-son relationship was not the best.Sophian wondered if she had made the wrong move by choosing to listen to Allison.‘I should’ve curried favor with Old Master Crawford when I first arrived at Crawford Manor. After all, it seems that Luke respects Old Master Crawford more than he does Allison. If I had managed to please Old Master Crawford, I may have benefited from it and left a
"Is it that hard for me to catch a glimpse of my grandkids?" Allison asked grumpily. However, Luke had hung up.Sophian was struggling to carry the two bags in her hands. She knew what had happened when she saw Allison's expression."Ms. Allison, why don't we go back first?" She suggested. Her hands felt like they were about to be snapped by the content of the bags.Allison spent a lot of money and bought a lot of high-quality children's things to please Luke.She and Allison had no use for the goods. If Allison went to get a refund, she could get their money back."What about these two bags?" Allison looked at the bags that Sophian was holding."We can..." Sophian paused and asked, "Did Mr. Crawford say anything?""He told me to leave these in the security booth." Allison was annoyed at Luke's lack of appreciation.Sophian pursed her lips and tried to persuade her, "In that case, Ms. Allison, let's leave these at the security booth. I’m sure that Mr. Crawford will send someone
