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

Susan let out a sigh of relief as a surge of anger boiled inside her. She could not help but lash out at Louis, "Are you crazy? Have
you been bewitched by Luke?"
"Mom!" Yuri's headache worsened. Louis was still annoyed, but he refrained from causing a scene for Thea's sake.
If Susan continued to stir things up like this, Yuri knew he would not be able to suppress the urge to go mad.
Louis glared at Susan with a darkened expression.
It gave Susan the creeps. She even had a feeling that she would be taken to see Old Master Crawford right away if she did not
calm things down.
"Hmph," Susan snorted coldly. Then, she turned around and headed to her bedroom.
The door was slammed shut with a loud bang.
Yuri heaved a sigh, knowing what had really happened just now. It was Susan's fault, but Louis had chosen to confront her on
this special day. It was a bad idea to do so.
Even though they were not holding a big party, the guests who would be coming today were either their relatives or close
friends...
"Mom shouldn't have done that. But she's just unhappy about Luke. Besides, she was forced to leave Crawford Manor, and she's
upset about it. Let's just let things slide. Your grandfather won't be pleased if you make a fuss about it," Yuri whispered to him,
trying to calm him down.
Old Master Crawford came across Louis' mind.
Not only did he have to protect Thea's image, but he also had to save Old Master Crawford's face.
If they argued about this in front of the old master and made people laugh at them, it would only tarnish the family's reputation.
He was too angry to consider this just now.
"Alright." Louis calmed down.

Whether or not he remained in the T Corporation, he had to protect the Crawford family's reputation as long as he was one of the
Crawford family.
A maid approached them and reminded, "Sir, Madam, Mr. Griffin asked me to inform you that most of the guests have arrived."
The Crawford family's butler was helping them out today. Mr. Griffin saw the list of guests invited by Louis back then. Therefore,
he was responsible for greeting and entertaining the guests to ease the couple's burden.
"Okay," Louis' voice was hoarse.
"Pour him a cup of tea," Yuri instructed the maid.
"Okay, Madam." The maid hurried downstairs.
"I don't drink tea..." Louis planned to go to the front yard to greet the guests. As the host, he should not stay away for too long.
Yuri reminded him, "Your throat is already hoarse. Your voice gets hoarse whenever you're angry. You wouldn't want Old Master
Crawford to find out what happened just now, right? Drink a cup of tea to soothe your throat before going out. It'll take you a few
minutes."
"Let's go downstairs," said Louis as he held Yuri's hand. They walked past Susan's bedroom door. He did not knock on her door.
Susan was emotionally driven now. He did not ask her to come downstairs because he did not want her to make things worse.
Moreover, she refused to meet the old master just now. It was probably because she was afraid that he would get mad at her
and not let her return to Crawford Manor. Hence, Louis was sure she would not vent her dissatisfaction on the spot.
The two of them made their way down the stairs together.
"Aren't you going to call Mom?" Yuri asked in a low voice.
"She's still mad." Louis' face turned slightly grim when he mentioned Susan. He could not bring himself to smile at the moment.
"Okay..." Yuri did not like to get involved in the conflicts between the mother and son.
However, the role of a daughter-in-law was to handle family conflicts. She would not interfere unless their relationship was as
tense as a bowstring.

The couple arrived downstairs.
“Sir, here's your cup of tea.” The maid served Louis a cup of warm tea.
Louis took a few sips of the tea until his throat felt better and his voice was not as hoarse as earlier. Only then did he hand the
cup to the maid. Then, he turned to look at Yuri. “Let's go.”
"Okay." Yuri followed him to the front yard.
The guests had already seated down.
They were having a housewarming party to celebrate moving into their new home. Long tables were placed together, and the
guests' seats had already been arranged by Mr. Griffin.
"Sorry to keep you all waiting," Louis noticed that the chef from Peninsula Hotel was already preparing the food. He felt a little
embarrassed as he sat in the host's seat.
One of the guests noticed that Susan had not yet arrived and asked, "Master Louis, where's your mother?" "She's not feeling
well, and she's resting upstairs," Louis calmly made up an excuse for Susan's absence. Then he smiled, "This is the chef from
the Peninsula Hotel. He'll be preparing delicious food for you today. I apologize for any inconvenience caused."
"Master Louis, we appreciate that. The chef from Peninsula Hotel doesn't usually take on private jobs like this. It's all thanks to
the Crawford family for having such a great reputation that we get to enjoy the food he prepared," one of the guests
complimented.
Louis exchanged pleasantries with them for a while.
After a while, the maid began to serve the food prepared by the chef, and the guests began to dine in.
Old Master Crawford looked at the nicely plated food and asked calmly, "What did your mother complain about just now?"
"It's not that, Grandpa. She's not feeling well." Louis did not intend to snitch on her.
"Mr. Griffin heard you yelling upstairs just now," added Old Master Crawford.
Mr. Griffin received the old master's instructions to look for Louis and ask him to entertain the guests. Unexpectedly, he heard
them arguing with each other upstairs.

He did not listen to what they were arguing about. When he heard the mother and son quarreling, he left in a hurry and reported
to the old master.
That was why the old master left the backyard and went to welcome the guests with Luke and Mr. Griffin.
Otherwise, it would have been rude for the master of the house to leave it to the butler and the maids to receive the guests.
Louis tightened his grip as he held the cutlery in his hand. He did not expect Old Master Crawford to find out about it.
"Grandpa, it's settled," replied Louis.
"There's nothing I can do if anything happens between you and your mother. But she has been causing trouble lately. We can't
let her ruin the reputation of the Crawford family,” Old Master Crawford whispered in his ears and warned him.
Ever since Allison got released from prison, Susan had been acting that way.
She was constantly in a state of tension, afraid that Allison might take something away from her...
It was almost pathological to the extent that Old Master Crawford even suspected that Susan probably had some mental health
issues. How could she change so much after Allison got out of prison?
However, the old master could not be bothered about Susan's situation. Therefore, he went all out and asked her to move out
and live with Louis instead.
With both Susan and Allison away from him, he could finally have some peace.
"I know she has some sense of propriety." Louis could not help but feel guilty when he said that.
If Susan had any sense of propriety, she would not have embarrassed him in front of Luke. Also, she would not have caused a
scene that would have caught Old Master Crawford's attention.
