Chapter 2472 Snobbish

“Is this for Mr. Crawford? Let me bring it to him for you.” Sophian thought that even though Luke

was scary, she wanted to make it up to him.

At least she could change the impression she had left on him.

Sophian thought she could fight for a chance to explain to him by serving him the soup. She

thought of shifting all the responsibility to Allison if she could.

The relationship between them was already bad. It did not matter if their relationship got worse.

A trace of astonishment flashed across Mr. Griffin's eyes. He grasped the bowl of soup tight, smiled,

and said, "How can I trouble a guest with such things? Let me serve him the soup first. Ms. Thomas,

just a minute.”

After that, he walked past Sophian and headed to the study.

“Let me follow you there. I have something to discuss with Mr. Crawford.” Sophian kept pace with

Mr. Griffin

Sophian was shocked by the aura Luke gave off when she ran into him just now. That was why she

dared not to say anything, let alone explain to him...

Besides, she would get caught by Allison for passing the buck to her if she talked to him here. She

could not explain to him in such a situation.

Mr. Griffin stopped, gave her a stern look, and said, "Ms. Thomas, no one is allowed to enter the

study without Young Master Luke's permission.”

“I...” Sophian blinked her eyes in surprise.

"Please stay here.” That was the last sentence Mr. Griffin said to her. If this person lacked

sophistication, it would be difficult for him to express what he wanted to say indirectly.

"Okay..." Sophian understood what Mr. Griffin meant.

Outsiders like her were forbidden from entering the study. Moreover, she was someone who had

tried to seduce Luke before...

Sophian watched Mr. Griffin enter one of the rooms, and she found out that it was Luke's study.

However, Mr. Griffin closed the door behind him after he walked in. Thus, Sophian did not hear

anything.

Mr. Griffin placed the bowl of soup on Luke's desk and reported to him. “Young Master Luke, Ms.

Thomas wanted to come in just now.”

"Stop her,” replied Luke. He was unwilling to see that woman.

“I've already stopped her. Young Master Luke, Madam Allison has decided to stay in Crawford

Manor. That means Ms. Thomas will be staying here too...” Mr. Griffin lowered his voice and hinted

to Luke to be careful.

He was not afraid that Luke would have inappropriate ideas toward Sophian, but he was afraid that

Sophian would get away with her wicked intentions.

After all, it was many women's dream to become Luke's woman. Even though Luke already had a

family, many women were still dreaming of becoming his woman.

“I'm not going to spend the night here tonight,” replied Luke. He decided to draw his designs here

as he was worried journeying back and forth would make the kids tired. Hence, he decided to let

them rest in Crawford Manor for a while.

After they finished dinner, Luke would take the kids back to the villa.

He would not want to spend the night here losing his sleep when he could cuddle with Luca in bed.

"Okay. You'll have dinner first before you leave, right?” Mr. Griffin asked. If Luke and the kids would

not stay for dinner, he had to inform the cook not to prepare their portions.

“Yes,” answered Luke.

Mr. Griffin slightly bowed to him. Then, he turned around and left the study.

Mr. Griffin closed the study room and noticed that Sophian was still rooted in the same spot. He

walked toward her, smiled, and said, "Ms. Thomas, I'll arrange the guest room for you now. It'll still

be the same room you stayed in before. Is that fine?"

“Sure. Thank you.” Sophian’s eyes lit up when she heard that she would be staying in the previous

guest room.

The guest room she previously stayed in was first-class, be it the decorations or the furniture. She

heard the maid say that the room she was staying in was the most luxurious guest room in Crawford

Manor.

“This way, please,” invited Mr. Griffin.

Sophian turned around and glanced in the direction of Luke's study. Only then did she leave with

Mr. Griffin

After Mr. Griffin asked the maid to clean up the room, he said to Sophian, who stood beside him,

“Ms. Thomas, just pick up the phone if you need anything else. Everyone is on 24-hour standby.”

"Okay. I got it.” Sophian walked into the guest room. It lightened up her mood a little after being

down in the dumps because of Luke.

Mr. Griffin emphasized, “If you feel hungry or thirsty at night, we can send it up here to your room.

It's one of our responsibilities.”

The smile on Sophian's face froze immediately.

Mr. Griffin's implication was obvious. He was reminding her not to hang about in Crawford Manor in

the middle of the night.

Her intention in walking around in the house was to seduce Luke back then. It was the same as

telling her not to try to do anything.

"What great service,” Sophian forced herself to say that sentence.

“It's our responsibility. Ms. Thomas, please excuse us. We'll let you rest.” Mr. Griffin led the maid out

of the guest room after that.

Sophian sat by the bed, clasping the bedsheet tightly.

They were nothing more than people working for the Crawford family. How could they ridicule her?!

The anger in Sophian’s heart would not go away unless she did something.

Still, was there anything she could do?

Sophian hesitated. She wanted to take revenge on Mr. Griffin, but she was worried that she would

make a big scene and affect Allison.

She needed Allison's money to return to Seoul now. The holidays were coming to an end. The

hospital would have a reason to fire her if she could not return to Seoul.

Sophian would end up miserably if she lost her job while still having to pay the hospital for her

surgery fees.

"Humph, snobbish b*stard!" After Sophian pondered for a moment, she realized there was nothing

she could do except hold a grudge.

At night.

Crawford Manor was brightly lit. Old Master Crawford sat in the host's seat, getting ready for dinner.

Luke led the three kids downstairs. They sat at the dining table, but the others had yet to arrive.

Old Master Crawford asked, “Luke, you're going back tonight, right?”

"Yes. The kids’ calligraphy homework is still at the villa. We have to go back.” Luke found an excuse

to go back. The kids could do their homework tomorrow too, but Sophian was here, so he had to go

back.

Allison heard Luke say that when she walked into the dining room. She deliberately said, “Isn't it

tiring to journey back and forth? My grandchildren must be tired even if you're not. Why don't you

spend the night here?”

“Grandma, we're not tired,” Lanie spoke at the right time. He had heard what had happened, and it

made him dislike his grandmother even more.

Allison was startled for a moment. Why were the kids suddenly speaking up today? They were

usually quiet when the adults were talking.

Nevertheless, they were speaking on behalf of Luke.

"Lanie, I just feel sorry for you. Coming here from X City and going back after dinner... You're still

young. How can you take it?" Allison pretended to be kind. However, she did not look like a kind

person with those wrinkles on her face.
