Chapter 1022 Heavy Is The Head That Wears The Crown
"I’m not struggling!" Rainie made a face at Blanche as she slowly did her homework.
Blanche shook his head indifferently and played with the trinkets on the table.
Luke watched by the side as his daughter finished the last question. She then handed her workbook to Bianca. "Mom, I'm done."
Bianca checked and found that there was no problem with it. She then signed her name at the bottom of the page.
"Mommy, Daddy, can I go play?" Rainie asked while blinking her big round eyes.
"Go for it, but don’t go out of control." Bianca agreed and helped them put their workbooks in their school bags.
Rainie and Blanche walked out of the study.
Bianca put the school bags aside. She only felt comfortable talking about the break-in after the children left.
"Did Grandpa blame you?" She put her hand on the back of his hand and asked with concern.
Luke grabbed her hand and rubbed her fingers lightly as he replied, "No."
Bianca knew that Old Master Crawford was a reasonable man. However, this was not a trivial matter and she was worried that
the old man would blame Luke.
Only she, who was always by his side, knew that Luke had invested a lot of time on the Crawford family and T Corporation.
Sometimes, he would accompany her to bed and after she fell asleep, he would quietly go to the study to work overtime. He only
went back to the bedroom to sleep for two hours before the break of dawn.
Bianca felt distressed for him but could not say anything. 'Heavy is the head that wears the crown.'
Seeing him working so hard and being so exhausted, she only had one thought. She would match his footsteps and help him in
the future.
The caretaker knocked on the doorand walked in. She said respectfully," Master, Madam, Old Master Crawford has asked me to
inform you that dinner is ready." "Okay." Luke took Bianca's hand, stood up, and went downstairs.
The atmosphere at the dining table was tense. Susan wanted to act out but dared not with Old Master Crawford around.

Louis and Yuri were taking care of Thea in the hospital. They were not eating nor sleeping well. Susan was frustrated at the
thought, and after having two bites, she put down her utensils and said, "I'm full."
Old Master Crawford ignored her. Susan left the dining room with her blood boiling.
Bianca got some greens for Tommy and watched him enjoy the food. He was the happiest out of everyone at the dinner table.
"Mommy, can I have some meat?" Tommy said, not satisfied that she only took vegetables for him.
Bianca placed two pieces of fish on his plate.
Tommy continued to eat.
Old Master Crawford took a sip of whisky and found it tasteless. He put down his utensils and asked, "Luke, what has your
mother been up to recently?"
Luke paused, his expression remaining neutral as he asked, "What's wrong?
"I asked the butler to invite her for dinner today but the call didn't go through. Is she busy lately?" Old Master Crawford asked. He
was furious that Allison did not answer a call from the manor.
'Allison is rich and thinks that she can disrespect me like that?!’ "I don't know." Luke took a sip of the soup. He and Gordan
Norton had gotten someone to monitor Allison while the investigation was going on.
The person told them that Allison had been in the villa for the past few days, not going out at all.
This was out of the ordinary.
Allison would hang out with other socialites whenever she had the time. It was rare for her to stay home for several days in a
row.
Old Master Crawford knew that Luke had his hands full with work but he still said to him earnestly, "She’s your mother. Check-in
on her when you have the time. Else, people may gossip." "I will, Grandpa." Luke agreed to his request.
After dinner, Old Master Crawford skipped watching the news and went back to his bedroom after walking around the living room
for a while. He said that he was tired.
Bianca sat beside Luke and watched cartoons with the children.

She put her head on his broad shoulder. She thought of what Old Master Crawford said at the dinner table and asked, "What do
you think Grandpa was implying?"
It was rare for Old Master Crawford to mention Allison's name since she moved out.
"Mom didn't answer the phone so Grandpa is angry." Luke took out his phone and called Allison.
The phone rang five times before it was connected. "What can I do for you?
Bianca leaned on his shoulder and heard Allison's voice on the other end of the phone. If it had been in the past, Allison would
be enthusiastic upon receiving Luke's call. Her voice was different now, and Bianca could tell that she was angry.
"Nothing much. We had a family dinner tonight and Grandpa asked why you didn't answer the phone." Luke glanced at Bianca
and held her hand.
Allison paused. It turned out that the butler had called her about this. When her phone rang earlier in the day, she thought it was
because they had found evidence against her.
Allison was relieved that it was not the case and replied, "So what? In your eyes, I'm not a member of the Crawford family
anyway. Is there anything else that you want to talk about? Else, I’ll hang up."
After the butler called, she had been in a constant state of worry. She feared that the police would come over and cause her
trouble.
Now that she had received a call from Luke, she was relieved to find out the truth.
Luke stopped talking, and Allison just hung up.
Elsa, who was on the side, was massaging her shoulders. "Madam, did your son call?"
She had seen Luke on TV and thought that if she could see such a handsome man in real life, it would be a feast for her eyes.
"Don't mention that unfilial son of mine." Allison clutched her chest. She still could not let go of what had happened in Brilliant
Architectural Design LLC.
Elise knelt on the cushions to massage her legs and answered softly, "At the end of the day, you're mother and son. You
shouldn't hold a grudge against him. On top of that, you should be proud of your amazing son."

Allison closed her eyes and enjoyed their service. She was proud of Luke, but their relationship had taken a turn for the worse
since Bianca appeared.
"You haven’t been a mother so you don’t know the pain I feel," she said while pointing to a sore spot on her shoulder. "Focus on
this spot. I haven’t been sleeping well and would feel tired the entire day." "Madam, 111 make you a cup of lavender tea before
you go to bed. It can improve your quality of sleep." Elise said.
"Okay." Allison smiled. She had not been going out and keeping a close eye on her safe for fear of others finding out. She could
not relax, which explained her deteriorating sleep quality.
Over at Crawford Manor.
Bianca heard the busy tone from Luke's phone and knew that Allison had abruptly ended the call. This was rare, and it seemed
that she was really
angry.
Although what had happened at her firm was mostly due to Allison being too sensitive and they had not done anything wrong, as
Allison's daughter- in-law, she still had to take a step back.
Luke did not intend to apologize. Since he was a kid, he was the kind of person who would admit to his mistakes. If he knew that
he was in the right, he would never apologize. However, after Bianca made the suggestion, he agreed with her and said, "Okay."
