Chapter 3338 How Can He Possibly Bring Luca To Crawford Manor On the other hand, Allison could not sleep, so she got up early.
She first checked the master bedroom, noticing that Luke and Luca were already up. Thinking of her own matters, she quickly headed downstairs.
When she cto the living room, she found Aunt Neile tidying up and asked, "Aunt Neile, where's Luca?" "Ms. Craw is already off to work," replied Aunt Neile. She could not help but flinch slightly when she looked at Allison's face, but she quickly tried to hide her reaction, not wanting to offend Allison.
"Already at work?" Allison's voice rose a little. "Isn't that a bit early?" "Madam Allison, it's almost 9:00 am. It's not that early," Aunt Neile pointed out, noting that most people were already at work at this hour. Luca was probably settled in at the company by now.
"Isn't 9:00 am early?" questioned Allison. "Isn't she working at Luke's company? Why would she have to clock in on time?" Aunt Nelle finally understood what she meant.
Allison was clearly expecting that Luca, given her connection to Luke, would have special privileges to cin later if she wanted.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAunt Neille caught on. "Ms. Craw hasn't used any special privileges. She has always worked normal hours." Allison gave a skeptical laugh, clearly not believing it.
"What tdoes she usually get home?" asked Allison. It was about her face, and she was desperate to talk to Luca about it right away.
If she did not have to avoid going outside and staying out of the sun, she would already be storming into Luca's office to get her to agree.
"Around 6:00 pm," answered Aunt Neile, then she asked, "Madam Allison, do you need something from Ms. Craw?" "Why else would I be looking for her?" Allison rolled her eyes, wincing as it pulled on a tender patch of skin on her face.
Aunt Nelle remembered that Luca and Luke were going to Crawford Manor for dinner tonight and would not be back so soon. She hesitated about whether to tell Allison.
However, after a brief pause and seeing the dark, brooding look on Allison's face, she decided against it.
If Allison found out they were going to Crawford Manor together, she might insist on tagging along.
This would mean that a pleasant family dinner would turn sour.
Allison had plenty of excuses to go to Crawford Manor.
Hence, Aunt Neile felt it was best not to tell her. After all, Luke had sent the kids back to Crawford Manor specifically to keep them away from Allison.
"Would you like sbreakfast now, Madam Allison?" asked Aunt Neile.
"Obviously! I got up early. Do you wantto starve?" Allison snapped as she walked to the dining room. Aunt Neile put down her cleaning supplies and went to the kitchen to bring out Allison's breakfast. Allison frowned as soon as she saw it. "Why was it ready so fast?" "I prepared it early just for you," explained Aunt Neile.
"I need to eat fresh food with my health the way it is!" Allison looked at the plate but did not touch it.
Aunt Neile assured her, "it is fresh. I made it this moming." "You don't understand, do you?" Allison rose to her feet. She was half a head taller than Aunt Neile. Her expression was cold and menacing as she said, "I want it made on the spot. Anything over an hour old isn't fresh to me. My face can't handle stale food. Make it again." When Allison's deeply wrinkled face appeared before her, Aunt Nelle could not help but startle for a moment. She quickly nodded and replied, "Alright, I'll make it right now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCarrying the breakfast that Allison deemed "not fresh", Aunt Neile hurried back to the kitchen and prepared a new plate for her.
Allison barely took a couple of bites before complaining, "It's too bland. Don't make it so plain next time." "But, ma'am, the doctor says you need a mild diet," Aunt Neile reminded her.
"When I say it's bland, it's bland. Are you arguing withnow?" Allison snapped, clearly annoyed.
Aunt Neile did not dare to argue further and just nodded repeatedly, assuring Allison that she would be more mindful next time.
However, Allison was still annoyed. "I really don't understand what Luke was thinking, hiring you as the maid here. You're so incompetent. It'd be better to replace you with someone smarter and quicker." A sudden idea crossed her mind.
Aunt Neile stayed silent.
She knew Allison did not actually have the authority to fire her. Besides, she knew she had been performing her duties well, and Luke had not shown any dissatisfaction with her work, so she was not worried about losing her job.
Still, it stung a little to hear her efforts dismissed so casually.
Allison continued, "I'll have to talk to Luke about replacing you." Then, she turned and left.
Aunt Neile let out a sigh, quietly clearing the dishes from the table and washing them. carefully before disinfecting everything once more.
Luke had instructed her to do so.
