"No," replied Luke.

The kids were smart. The old master asked to head to the study once they arrived at Crawford Manor. Hence, it was no surprise to know that it had something to do with Allison.

"Daddy, what kind of trouble has Grandma gotten herself into?" Tommy tilted his head and asked.

Luke fell silent.

Tommy added, “Got it. Kids shouldn't be meddling in the adult's affairs.”

Luke's phone rang. He put on the wireless earphones and answered the call, "Who is this?"

"Good evening, Mr. Crawford. We're calling from the Federal Trade Commission. You filed a police report this afternoon claiming that a swindler has scammed your mother's money by asking her to make some investments. Is it true?" A man's voice came from the other end of the line.

“Yes.” Luke raised his brows. They were calling at this hour. Did they manage to arrest the swindler?

"According to the lead you've provided us, we've already arrested the person at the station. Can you please head to the police station to make a statement and claim your losses back now?" the police officer asked.

"I wasn't the one who got cheated. I don't know the details of the situation. You can call the one whose money got cheated.” Luke was not planning to go to the police station. He would not be able to tell them anything even if he went there.

After all, he had only briefly explained to them how she got cheated. The main point was that Allison provided some information about the swindler to the police officer on the other end of the line.

“Is your mother Ms. Allison Tanner?” The police officer confirmed with him.

"Yes."

"There's one more thing we have to tell you. Although you want to claim back the money, we've looked into the suspect's bank account. There isn't much money in it, so we speculate that he has already transferred the money somewhere else. But it's hard to tell where he transferred the money to and how many people are involved in this. We need you to be prepared for this," added the police officer.
