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

Chapter 192 Bianca’s Phone Could Not Be Reached

The caretaker immediately did what she was told.

Her fingers were trembling as she dialed Luke's number. No one picked up the first call, and the

second call was also unanswered!

However, the call went through every time.

After countless calls, the call was eventually picked up.

"Sir, Old Master Crawford had a heart attack and is not in the hospital.

Please go and visit him!" The caretaker said hoarsely.

A City Hospital.

Old Master Crawford lay on a bed. The doctors managed to resuscitate him, and his vitals were

returning to normal.

Allison was sitting on a chair next to bed, guiltily wiping away her tears.

Susan and Louis were informed about the news and got to the hospital as quickly as they could.

As Zachary's second son, Louis had a deep affection for his grandfather. After all, he had spent most of

his time as a child with Old Master Crawford.

Old Master Crawford might be strict, but he was a responsible grandparent.

In fact, he was closer to his grandfather than his father, who had passed away from illness when he

was young.

There was another reason why Louis was grateful to his grandfather.

Back then, when his father wanted to abandon Susan, his lawfully wedded wife, and marry Allison, Old

Master Crawford did not agree to it. He made every effort to oppose his son and ensured that Susan

and Louis had a place to stay in Crawford Manor.

He vaguely remembered that the Armstrong family was on the brink of ruin when his father wanted to

divorce his mother.

If not for Old Master Crawford, Susan and Louis would have been mercilessly driven out of the

household and left on the streets to be publicly condemned, while Allison would have reaped every

benefit.

Louis had always been grateful to Old Master Crawford, though he kept it hidden under his rebellious

exterior. He had always wanted to repay his grandfather, but unfortunately, he did not have any

business sense.

On the other hand, his elder brother was like a heaven-sent gift, a perfect heir to Crawford Industries.

Too bad that Luke's birth mother was despicable.

Louis's brows were tightly knotted as he looked at the old man lying on the hospital bed gasping for air.

He thought that Old Master Crawford should have lived to a hundred years old, free from disease and

pain.

Meanwhile, Susan glanced at Allison, who was still crying, and thought that there was more to the

incident than meets the eye. "I thought that Father was still fine when I left the house earlier this

morning. Why did he suddenly suffer a heart attack?" She asked.

Susan knew very well Allison's character! Would that despicable woman cry so hard because of Old

Master Crawford’s heart attack?

Not unless the sun rose from the west!

There must be some other unmentionable reason!

The VIP hospital ward was very spacious. On the other side of the bed and cabinets was a set of

couches and a coffee table, like a living room.

Luke was silent ever since he stepped into the hospital.

From the time Old Master Crawford was wheeled into the emergency room, across the unbearably long

stretch of time when the doctors tried to resuscitate him, until he was wheeled back out and into the

ward.

In the silent ward, no one answered Susan's question. The nurse attending to Old Master Crawford

was gently massaging the back of his hand so that he did not feel any discomfort from the IV drip.

Luke's firm footsteps echoed in the ward.

It was past the promised time that they should meet and depart to the town, but he could not reach

Bianca on her phone. He was immensely worried.

That slap on her face earlier was too hard.

Old Master Crawford stirred. He could discern whom those footsteps belonged to, even when his eyes

were closed. He opened his mouth and called out weakly, "Luke... wait..."

Susan looked at Old Master Crawford.

Louis turned to look at his elder brother, who was about to leave the ward.

They immediately pinpointed the source of the problem.

Luke had somehow caused Old Master Crawford's heart attack.

Susan was confused. How would the filial and sensible Luke ever agitate his grandfather so much?

Allison took a napkin that was handed to her by a nurse. She wiped her eyes and said, "Please step

outside for now.”

Louis did what he was told. He knew that Grandfather had something to speak to Allison and Luke.

Susan did not want to leave. She wanted to know what was going on, but her son dragged her out of

the ward.

The nurses left the ward as well.

Only Old Master Crawford lying on the bed, Allison sitting next to the bed with puffy eyes, and Luke

standing rooted next to the door remained in the ward.

Allison lowered her head and wiped her tears. "Luke, I know that you must be hating me for telling your

grandfather what happened. You must understand that I have no other choice!"

She knew that Old Master Crawford would be struggling to speak, so she took the opportunity to make

her point.

"Don't you know how hard it was to raise you all alone? The family did not recognize me, and my

friends did not help me. You were my only comfort.

Unfortunately, reality is harsh, and to protect you, I could do nothing but bow and accept help from

Kevin Rayne."

Those words were spoken to both Luke and Old Master Crawford.

She did not have to be afraid of the violent and merciless Zachary, but the patriarch of the Crawford

family was still alive.

If her son would not stand on her side about what happened earlier that morning, she could only find

Old Master Crawford for help!

Old Master Crawford was frail and easily agitated, but she had no other choice but to endanger his life

so that the incident could be resolved!

No matter what, Bianca cannot marry into the Crawford family!

Luke's cold voice echoed in the ward. "As far as I know, before I was brought into the Crawford family, I

grew up in an orphanage!"

Luke never resented his past.

He sympathized with Susan, though he also knew that he had to love and respect Allison, the woman

who had given birth to him, even though she was in the wrong.

However, he could not get any closer to Allison for what she did.

That was why he had respected and loved her from afar and never spoke to her heart-to-heart.

From his ordeal in the orphanage to being brought into the Crawford family, Luke had learned a lot

about the ugly side of adulthood. The arguments and scandals in Crawford Manor taught his young

mind a lot about morality.

He had a mother who was a mistress that had traded morals for riches. That was an irrefutable fact.
