Chapter 407

At the study.

Louis opened the door and looked at his brother Luke, sitting at the desk and carefully perusing some documents.

The heater was turned on, and the man was only dressed in a black shirt, which accentuated his mature demeanor.

From the door, Louis could see that his brother's legs were crossed.

Even he had to admit that his brother was very charming when serious.

Louis sighed again. He would also have been attracted to his brother if he were not a straight man.

His brother was a workaholic, even working when it was the holiday period. Louis, though, would find sitting in front of a desk even for half an hour unbearable torture. Indeed, his brother Luke was his idol.

Luke seemed to have noticed that someone was looking at him. He lifted his head, saw that it was Louis, lowered his head, and continued his work.

It was noon, and the sunlight was comfortable. The gentle rays shone through the floor-to-ceiling window and around Luke, enhancing the handsomeness of his sculpted face.

Louis was caught in a daze looking at his brother's face, even though he already knew that his brother was more handsome than him.

"Luke," he called out softly.

Luke's penetrating and profound gaze glanced at him. He lit a cigarette before asking, "How is your mother?"

Of course, he knew about Susan suddenly passing out.

Unlike Allison, who gloated at Susan's misfortune, he performed his responsibility to his elders. He did not personally go and visit her, but he had called Johann to examine her.

Old Master Crawford had begged him to forgive the things that Susan had done to him; he did not make her culpable, but he could not forget those things either. He had almost lost his life in a car crash of her design, which made him lose out so much time that he could have spent with Bianca.

On the other hand, he understood that all those tragedies would not happen if his mother Allison had not inserted herself into Zachary and Susan's marriage. He empathized with Susan, and that was why he could tolerate her.
