Chapter 3043
"Hmph, how could Madam have such strength? If you keep talking nonsense, I'm going to tear your
arm off," warned the man as he cracked his own knuckles.
Silas shivered again, not daring to say another word. However, deep in his heart, he could not help but
criticize them claiming that Karen had no such strength. It was only because they had not experienced
it themselves.
Karen had sserious strength behind her slaps!
At Crawford Manor, Luke and his family of five planned to leave after having lunch with Old Master
Crawford.
When they were about to leave, they ran into Susan, who was returning to Crawford Manor.
When Susan saw Luke and the others, she instantly remembered the humiliation she endured at
Luke's house on Friday evening.
She could not help but say enigmatically, "I was wondering why you were sorting out the herbs. It turns
out you're here to please the old master. Are the herbs a gift for the old master?"
Luke frowned, while Luca stared at her. Just as he was about to speak, Mr. Griffin answered on behalf
of her.
"Ms. Craw brought sherbs over for Old Master Crawford to nurture his health," replied Mr. Griffin,
his tone tinged with admiration.
Even though Luca's gesture was to please the old master, it was much better than others who tried to
gain favor by sending expensive antiques or supplements. The herbs were beneficial for the old
master's health if they were used correctly.
This kind of gesture was much more effective in winning the old master's favor compared to those who
tried to please him with expensive antiques or supplements.
This behavior, in the butler's eyes, was commendable.
"Old Master Crawford accepted them?" Susan saw Luke holding hands with Luca and remembered her
earlier attempt to warn him about his behavior. Instead of being grateful, he continued to stay close to
this woman.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey said a woman's charms would bring disaster. Susan secretly thought that Luke would eventually
be taken down by a woman like Luca.
However, Susan felt that it did not matter even if Luke was harmed by a woman like Luca as long as it
did not affect the Crawford family. There was still Louis, after all.
When Louis becthe pillar of the Crawford family, he would have to cback and take over the
company.
"He accepted them. Old Master Crawford is very satisfied with Ms. Craw's thoughtfulness," replied Mr.
Griffin. Even though Luca was a stranger, she wanted the old master to be healthy and live a long life.
Regardless of whether this stranger did it to please Luke or not, her intention was ultimately good and
indeed beneficial to the old master.
However, a certain someone had been the Crawford family's daughter-in-law for decades, yet she tried
to put the old master's health at risk.
Susan managed to smooth things over with an excuse that time, and Old Master Crawford even spent
seffort to suppress the news. The incident left a deep impression in both the old master's and the
butler's minds.
No matter what Susan did, they beccautious whenever they thought about the incident. Even the
supplements she bought back were untouched by the old master.
No matter how good they were, he would not touch them, and he would not give them away either,
fearing that they might harm someone. Usually, the supplements would be discreetly disposed of when
there was a chance to do so.
"Oh, they're just sherbs and Old Master Crawford is already satisfied? Don't blme for saying
this, but you need to be careful with those herbs. You never know if sill-intentioned person is trying
to take advantage and put the old master's health at risk."
Susan spoke enigmatically as she looked at Luca with a sly gaze.
Even with Luke present, she did not hesitate to confront Luca.
After all, in her eyes, she was an elder. Whatever she said seemed to carry a bit of weight.
At least that was how Susan perceived it.
Luca's fingers tightened. When Susan made those remarks, she had the urge to retaliate. However,
saying those things in front of the butler would only put Luke in a difficult position.
Not to mention that regardless of whether the butler knew her true identity was Bianca or not, she had
no grounds to argue with her.
Mr. Griffin frowned and secretly thought that Susan's words were really unpleasant.
"Madam Crawford, Old Master Crawford's health has indeed improved a lot after Ms. Craw's treatment.
That's why he trusts her for his care." Mr. Griffin spoke up for Luca. "Whether the herbs work or not, the
old master will find out in his daily trials."
"Trials?" Susan deliberately used an exaggerated tone. "You're actually treating the old master's body
as an experimental tool?"
Mr. Griffin was startled for a moment. He did not expect her to misinterpret his meaning like that.
Before Mr. Griffin went to bed last night, he had already checked the herbs Luca sent and consulted a
trustworthy naturopathic doctor. It was confirmed that these herbs were safe to constogether with
attention to the proper dosage.
Mr. Griffin had shown the corresponding dosage to the naturopathic doctor, who confirmed it was safe.
Moreover, the combination of these herbs was beneficial for the body, especially for middle-aged and
elderly people.
At the stime, the naturopathic doctor was amazed by the recipe Mr. Griffin had sent, stating that
this kind of herbal cuisine combination was even more effective.
He even asked for all the recipes, claiming that they would be beneficial for the overall health of most
middle-aged and elderly patients.
That was why Mr. Griffin had complete confidence in the herbs and recipes sent by Luca.
"I believe in Luca's capabilities. What's wrong with that?" In the midst of the silence, the voice of Old
Master Crawford rang out.
Old Master Crawford spoke energetically as he strolled toward them with his cane. He looked at Susan
with a displeased expression.
"Father... You can't just randomly take the medicine given by strangers. I'm doing this for your own
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgood," said Susan as she threw Luca a jealous look.
As the person targeted, Luca remained calm with a peaceful expression.
Did she think there were many people defending her? Was that why she was so calm?
Susan beceven more infuriated when she saw that Luke and Luca were holding each other's
hands.
"Hmph, for my good? If I shouldn't take herbal medicine from strangers, then should I take the ones
you give me? Would taking the herbal medicine you givemakehealthy? Do they have
miraculous effects?" questioned Old Master Crawford.
He would recall that incident every tSusan brought up the topic of herbal medicine.
If it were not for Luca, he might still be consuming those excessively blood-boosting medicines.
His health would have only gotten worse if he had not rested well.
Susan intended to say yes, but recalling the schshe plotted back then, she had no choice but to
awkwardly mumble, "Father, that's not what I meant."
"What brings you back here today?” Old Master Crawford did not want to continue discussing the herbs
with her to avoid any chance of getting upset.
He could not help but feel annoyed at the thought of his daughter-in-law treating him this way.
"Isn't today the weekend? I cback just to visit you. I didn't expect Luke to bring a stranger with
him," grumbled Susan.
In spoken and unspoken words, she was blaming Luke for bringing a stranger hand insinuating
the potential impact it could have on the Crawford family. "There are so many valuable things in the
house. It's not a good idea to bring anyone in."
"Oh? Going by your logic, maybe you shouldn't cback either. Leave, then. With so many valuable
things at home, you'll be implicated too if something goes missing."
Old Master Crawford, sensing her knack for finding faults, decided to go along with her words and
asked her to leave.
Susan widened her eyes. This was not the result she wanted!
"Father, I'm not an outsider."
"Yes, you're Louis' mother, but you don't live in Crawford Manor anymore. Don't cback unless
necessary." Old Master Crawford continued to drive her away. Then, he instructed the maid nearby,
"Give it to Luke."
