Chapter 801 She Wanted To See What Allison Intended To Do
Luke went to the company early that morning, while the driver picked up the three children and sent them to Crawford Manor
because Old Master Crawford missed them. The people who remained in the mansion were Bianca, Old Master Rayne, and
Wanda who came to visit.
Johann had suggested a naturopathic treatment program for Old Master Rayne. The old man was already quite elderly, and his
symptoms were chronic.
Today, Bianca and Wanda were in the kitchen preparing a herbal remedy for Old Master Rayne.
The thick smell of medicinal herbs wafted in the kitchen. They had to reduce the tonic three times in the pot, and they were only
boiling it for the second time. Bianca thought that the smell alone was bitter.
"Aunt Wanda, the tonic smells so pungent and bitter. Can Grandpa's stomach take it?" Bianca furrowed her brows. She could not
imagine how her grandfather took the tonic every day.
Wanda smiled when she saw how worried her niece was. "Don't worry, sometimes herbal remedies can be more effective than
medicine. Look at my breast cancer. Dr. Lake said that there was no other way other than to remove my breasts by surgery, and
she estimated that I only had six months to live... I didn't have the courage to have them removed, so I tried naturopathic
treatments instead. I can't say that the tumor is totally gone, but at least the treatment managed to stop it from spreading. That's
all I can ask for..."
Bianca looked at her aunt carefully. Indeed, there was more color to her face compared to before, and she seemed to be in good
spirits. Bianca remembered how her aunt used to be withered and gaunt, but now she seemed slightly plumper.
However, Bianca remained worried. "You'll still have to take good care of yourself, Aunt Wanda. Now that your condition is
improving, you shouldn't overwork yourself. Maybe you should rest at home instead of working. You can't put a price on your
health."
Wanda was even more of a workaholic compared to Bianca. While she was in Japan, she was the vice president of a major
corporation. After she returned to the country, she started several companies and did not give herself any free time.
Naturally, her sickness was exacerbated by her stress from work and her lifestyle.
She shifted her priorities after she was diagnosed with cancer. "I know my condition the best, Bea, and I've thought about a lot of
things since I was diagnosed. You don't have to worry too much about me. I've already sold off all my companies except for one,
and I've been delegating most of the duties to the managers. Nowadays, I try to enjoy life as much as possible, and I'll travel to
different cities and countries every month. I'd bring your Grandpa along with me if not that his physical condition doesn't allow
him to travel."
Bianca watched over the pot while replying to her aunt, "Grandpa gets homesick easily, Aunt Wanda. He doesn't want it even
when I bring him to the park. I don't think he'd travel with you even if his health were better, but it's the thought that counts.
Taking care of your health is more important than anything else. I've been very busy lately, and I can't get away from work.
Otherwise, I'd join you in your travels around the world too."
Wanda furrowed her brows when she was reminded of T Corporation's recent troubles. "How are you and Luke going to deal
with the tragedy of The Galleria, Bea? I don’t believe that it's an accident, and someone must be behind it. There's no reason
why the shopping mall would suddenly collapse, especially not when there aren't any earthquakes or natural disasters. If you
need me to help with anything, don't hesitate to tell me." "Thank you, Aunt Wanda. Indeed, it's not an accident. Someone's trying
to sabotage us."
Bianca's gaze became icy when she thought of that cold-blooded person who would kill so many innocent people in an attempt
to harm T Corporation's reputation. "You don't have to worry about us. Luke is in the midst of finding evidence, and the
masterminds behind the tragedy will be exposed soon. We can't reveal anything for now, in case the culprits catch wind of it.
Once we are ready to tell the truth, we will have a satisfactory explanation for the families of the deceased!"
Wanda felt slightly relieved.
She had been in Japan for a long time, and all her resources and connections were there. She felt guilty that there was not much
she could do to help her niece, but knowing that they had already found the culprits made her feel better.
She knew that Luke was an outstanding individual and believed that he would be able to overcome the challenge. Her niece
Bianca had suffered for most of her life, and Wanda would not want someone to ruin Bianca's hard-earned bliss.
While they were chatting in the kitchen, they heard a commotion from outside. Soon, a security guard came running toward the
kitchen while shouting from afar.
"Mrs... Mrs. Crawford..."
Bianca wiped her hands and went out of the kitchen. ‘What's wrong, Steve?"
The security guard panted while he wiped the sweat off his face. "Madam... Madam Crawford is outside and wants to come in.
We told her that she couldn't come in, but she sat on the ground and caused a commotion. She insists on meeting her son, and
we can’t stop her. We dare not lay a finger on her because she's Mr. Crawford's mother. What should we do?"
Bianca glanced at the security feed of the entrance. Indeed, Allison was sitting on the ground and flailing her arms and legs.
She was punching and kicking the security guards around her, very much unlike how a woman of her status should behave. My
son owns this mansion. Why can't I go in?" She yelled, "How dare you stop me, you peasants? I'll get my son to fire every one of
you!"
Bianca knew that Allison was a nuisance. If she did not allow her to come in, that woman might sit there for the rest of the day.
Helplessly, she waved at the security guard. "Let her in!"
She was curious to find out what Allison intended to do.
If that woman were here to cause trouble, Bianca would make sure that she would regret it.
After the security guards let Allison in, she looked around at the beautiful scenery in the garden, admiring that the caretakers had
kept the place well- maintained. Then, she clutched her handbag and walked into the house...
