Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

“Father, you've been around for some time and have seen a lot of things, but there are many scammers nowadays and they're
using more tricks that you've never seen, so don't be deceived." Susan was even more upset when she saw how Old Master
Crawford defended Luca, so she pointed out that Luca was a liar.
Old Master Crawford had a gloomy expression. As expected, Susan would not be bothered to think about her reputation when
she went crazy. She was like this with Allison and now, with Luca.
Was she trying to badmouth Luke by hinting that Luca was a liar?
Old Master Crawford was very fond of Luca and would never allow such a thing to happen.
Just as he was about to speak, Luke's voice could be heard from the stairs. "Mother, are you doubting the professional skills of
the person I hired?"
Susan looked up at Luke and frowned. It seemed like he was involved now.
She already felt pressured from facing Old Master Crawford. Now that she had to face Luke, her imposing manner immediately
dimmed. She had no choice but to explain, "I just raised a reasonable suspicion, Luke. How many people are able to possess
pharmaceutical knowledge and are able to treat patients by taking their pulse? Even if you know some of them, they're probably
just pretending. I don't want your grandfather to get scammed. I'm doing this for his own good."
"I'm not as naive as you think." Old Master Crawford had a stern expression. He mercilessly exposed her, then leaned on his
cane and stood up. "I know everything about what happens in Crawford Manor. I know all about what everyone here does. As
long as it doesn't harm the Crawford family, I won't say anything about it. However, it doesn't mean that I'm unaware and not
watching."
Susan had chills down her spine. He was hinting at her.
She had indeed done some stuff behind the old master's back, but they were all done for her benefit.
These things did not affect the Crawford family's benefit for now, but it was hard to say whether it would later on.
The reason for doing these things was simple. She felt threatened. The old master's gaze was so intimidating she could not help
but dodge it.
Luke saw the way Susan reacted and understood what was going on.

Old Master Crawford knew everything Susan did behind his back. He just did not stop her for the time being because it did not
harm the interests of the Crawford family.
Susan thought she had done a seamless job, but in reality, her every move was already caught by the old master early on.
She thought she was doing a good job...
“I had good intentions.” Susan dodged the old master's gaze, unwilling to admit her mistakes.
Luca was helpless.
Old Master Crawford snorted coldly, "Luca, let's go to my study."
"Okay." Luca stood up as well and glanced at Luke resignedly.
When she arrived, she already had a feeling that Susan might pick on her. However, she did not expect that Susan would make
the old master angry like this. The old master had been living like this for such a long time. Of course, his health could not get
better.
Luke nodded slightly, signaling Luca to follow the old master to his study.
Susan stared at her as not just anyone could enter the old master's study. Even when it came to cleaning, the old master's most
trusted butler was in charge of cleaning the old master's study himself. Everyone else, including her, was not allowed to enter—
even under special circumstances.
After so many years since she came to Crawford Manor, it occurred to Susan that she had never been allowed to enter the old
master's study at all. However, Luca was allowed to enter so easily.
She was furious at the special treatment Luca was getting.
With Luke still there, so Susan found herself not being able to say anything at all. Her resentment for Luke started to creep into
her heart. It was all because of that broke studio. He not only lost the management rights to T Corporation, but he also often left
home early and stayed out late, which caused her to get bullied like this.
Luke noticed Susan's indignance, but he did not comfort nor apologize. After everything she said just now, he was already being
merciful by choosing not to deal with her.
"Tommy." He called out to his son.

"What is it, Daddy?" Tommy nestled nicely into his side.
"Have you done your homework?" asked Luke.
"I've finished it. The teacher gave us less homework today, so I could finish it fast." Tommy hugged his arm. Whenever this
happened, he was especially afraid of Susan. He felt that her eyes seemed to be carrying knives that could cut children like him
a thousand times.
She was like a witch who ate children.
However, Tommy dared not say what he felt.
"Go upstairs, I'll check your homework," said Luke. He had no intention of joining Luca and Old Master Crawford in the study.
The old master's mood must have been ruined by Susan, so he should let Luca calm him down.
Whether she was Bianca or Luca, she always had a knack for cheering up old people.
"Okay, Daddy!" Although Tommy thought of letting Luca check his homework, after seeing how terrifying Susan was, he jumped
at the chance to go upstairs.
Susan watched the father and son go upstairs. She flew into a rage.
She was Luke's mother, but throughout the years, Luke had never looked her in the eye. Old Master Crawford favored Luke, so
the old master never said anything about his rude behavior.
Susan felt like she did not have a place in this family anymore.
She poured some tea into a cup, then gulped it down. As she was so angry, she forgot about the scalding heat and the herbal
taste.
The tea that entered her mouth was spat out at once without caring about her image.
“Madam Crawford, are you okay?" Mr. Griffin happened to see it from the side and hastily pulled out a few tissue papers.
Susan coughed twice as she got choked by the tea and was embarrassed to be seen. She did not take the tissues the butler
handed her but threw the glass cup in her hand to the floor.

At that moment, the glass shattered all over the floor.
Mr. Griffin looked helpless. Louis had brought this cup back from overseas. The old master quite liked it for its good
workmanship.
"He wants to bully me for this too?" She looked at the broken glass on the floor and did not feel any relief, so she lifted the
teapot.
The butler realized what she was about to do, so he quickly warned her, "Madam Crawford, this is the old master's collection. It's
a teapot from the early 20th century..."
What he meant was that she could not throw it.
Mr. Griffin's words knocked some sense into her.
Old Master Crawford cared a lot about his antiques. When Allison conspired with others to steal the old master's antiques, he
showed no mercy and had the police arrest her.
Now, the old master was willing to use this antique teapot to brew tea for Luca!
Susan held the teapot in her hands and stared at the floor. If she let go now, the teapot would definitely shatter into pieces. Her
rage may even be able to calm down a bit.
However, the butler was watching.
If the old master found out that his teapot was broken, he would certainly ask what happened and the butler would definitely not
cover for her.
