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...
