Chapter 406

Susan did not expect that Louis was standing at the door.

She instantly came to her senses and remembered what she said at the peak of

her rage.

She had to admit that the twisted marriage to Zachary Crawford had caused irreparable psychological damage, but undeniably, she was a doting and caring mother to her son Louis.

Her position in the household was precarious, and she only had her son to rely on. She could not afford any cracks in her relationship with Louis.

"What are you saying, my son? I don't understand," Susan said sheepishly. "See, Luke already has a pair of twins, and now Bianca is pregnant with a third child. You'll have to buck up and get your mother a grandchild soon. That way, the Crawford family business wouldn't fall entirely into the hands of Allison and her son!"

"Tell me honestly, Mom, did you hire someone to cause Luke's car crash?" Louis was not beating around the bush.

Louis's gaze was like Zachary's. Susan felt an inexplicable panic when looking into her son's eyes.

Then, she began to feel sorrow.

Those were exactly like the eyes that had captivated her heart.

Zachary Crawford was an experienced casanova. He had promised Susan the moon, which made the naive Susan fall in love with him. Her parents were not fond of Zachary, thinking that he was unreliable because of his attitude.

Back then, she was a naive young socialite who was deeply in love. Why would she care about anything else?

Moreover, Zachary seemed to be devoted to her whenever they were together. She did not see his multiple affairs with other women.

When her parents objected to her marriage, she had even threatened to commit suicide. Not only that, she had carnal relations with the man despite her strict upbringing. After that, her parents had no choice but t o comply.

She married the man he loved, thinking that her world was complete.
