Chapter 3340 Is That Something A Mother Should Be Doing
After finishing work, Luca headed straight to Crawford Manor.
When she arrived and greeted Old Master Crawford, the three kids came running down the stairs and surrounded her. They each took turns expressing how much they missed her and Luke.
Luca missed them too, so after exchanging a few words with Old Master Crawford, she went upstairs with the kids to help them with their homework.
It did not take long before Luke arrived.
Not seeing Luca in the living room, he asked Old Master Crawford, "Grandpa, has Luca arrived?"
Old Master Crawford was in a good mood. He nodded and replied, "She's upstairs, helping the kids with their homework."
Luke sat on the couch and watched the evening news with Old Master Crawford.
*Has your mother caused any trouble lately?" asked Old Master Crawford.
"Not really," answered Luke. He could still manage Allison.
"That doesn't sound like her," added Old Master Crawford, assuming Allison would always be causing trouble.
*Her condition is bad right now," explained Luke. "She can't see anyone, and she can't be exposed to sunlight, so she won't be out and about causing any big problems."
Old Master Crawford knew Allison's condition was not good and nodded in understanding. He then asked about something else. "I heard she brought that woman back last time?"
"Yes, she's staying at a hotel," replied Luke.
"What on earth is your mother thinking?" Old Master Crawford frowned. It felt like Allison's way of thinking was completely out of the ordinary. It was hard to make sense of it.
"Does she plan on going to Seoul for treatment again?"
"It doesn't seem like it," answered Luke. He had not discussed it with Allison yet, but he could tell she had given up on the idea of foreign treatments.
After the last incident, she probably would not consider it again.
*Then why bring someone back with her?" Old Master Crawford grumbled. "Is she planning on taking responsibility for someone else's life?" Old Master Crawford's anger flared when he remembered what Allison had done during New Year's.
She actually let some random women try to seduce Luke!
Was that something a mother should be doing?
*Luke, even though this person was brought by your mother, you need to handle her. Now." Old Master Crawford looked around the living room to make sure no one else was there, then lowered his voice. "Now that we know Luca's true identity is Bianca, we can't let some messed-up woman affect the family."
After Allison brought Sophian home, Old Master Crawford had people investigate her. Sophian was from A City.
She came from a poor farming family who barely made any money in a year.
However, somehow, Sophian had the money to go abroad and get cosmetic surgery. She even became addicted to it and constantly altered her looks. When her money ran out, she took out loans and ended up working in a hospital to pay off her debt.
It was clear her money was not clean.
Old Master Crawford could not respect women like her.
He understood the desire for beauty, but the unhealthy fixation was beyond him.
A woman like that should never be around Luke!
"I'll take care of it," said Luke. No matter what he did, he would always consider Luca's feelings. As long as he took her feelings into account, she would never misunderstand him.
Seeing how confident Luke was, Old Master Crawford decided not to bring up the matter anymore.
Allison could cause whatever chaos she wanted to. If it did not affect him directly, then it was not a big deal.
After dinner, Luca reluctantly said goodbye to the kids.
"Daddy, when are you going to take care of the issue with Grandma?" Lanie asked before they left.
Luke paused for a moment, unsure of how to answer his son's question.
Allison had no intention of returning to Seoul now, so the only way to resolve the situation was for her to eventually decide to move out. Until then, the kids would have to stay at Crawford Manor.
Even though Lanie was cool and not as clingy as his younger siblings, he loved his parents and wanted to grow up with them by his side.
He added, "Daddy, I really want to go back and live with you and Mommy."
"What's wrong? Do you not like it here with me?" Old Master Crawford suddenly asked, but there was no anger in his voice. "Lanie, do you have a problem with your great-grandpa?"
"No, Great-grandpa." Lanie shook his head. "It's just that Tommy is usually very naughty. It's tiring for you to take care of him, so it's better if Daddy does it. You've worked hard your whole life. You deserve to relax and enjoy yourself. You shouldn't be raising kids."
Old Master Crawford could not help but laugh at Lanie's words. "You sure know how to talk, little one."
Lanie grinned.
Tommy protested when he heard his name being mentioned. "Lanie, I'm very well behaved. I won't make Great grandpa tired!*
"Yes, yes. Lanie, Rainie, Tommy, all of you are very good," said Old Master Crawford.
Living with his great-grandchildren made him very happy. He felt younger when they were around, always laughing and playing with them.
Luca squatted down slightly, giving the three kids some final instructions. "You all need to behave yourselves here, okay? Be sure to do your homework without being asked, don't pick at your food when eating, and don't sleep in in the mornings. Understand?"
"Yes, Ms. Luca," the three kids replied in unison.
Luca patted their heads before leaving with Luke.
Tommy watched them leave from behind, feeling a little sad. "Lanie, when do you think we can go home?"
"Daddy will solve things soon," replied Lanie.
"Yes, Daddy is really great," Rainie chimed in.
Old Master Crawford watched his three great-grandchildren as they reluctantly parted with Luca and Luke. He smiled and reminded them, "Aren't you three going back to the living room? Your cartoon show is about to start." As soon as they heard this, the three kids hurried back to the living room.
The cartoon show they had been waiting for was going to start!
Old Master Crawford shook his head with a smile on his face. He slowly followed the kids as Mr. Griffin gently supported him.
"With the kids in the house, I feel like this quiet manor is so much livelier, Old Master Crawford exclaimed contentedly.
"Yes, the kids are active and well-behaved. There's laughter in the house every day, which is really nice," Mr. Griffin agreed, not feeling that the return of the three kids had made the house noisy. Instead, the kids were making Old Master Crawford smile more each day!
This was a good thing!
Old Master Crawford slowly made his way back to the living room, where the three kids were already sitting on the couch. They had their eyes on the TV.
Lanie was sitting off to the side and had a book resting on his lap.
As usual, Old Master Crawford reminded him, "Lanie, it's good that you like reading, but remember to protect your eyes and take breaks."
"I know, Great-grandpa," Lanie nodded obediently.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
"The cartoon's starting!" cheered Tommy.
Lanie set the book aside and joined his siblings to watch the show.
