“Father, you've been around for some time and have seen a lot of things, but there are many scammers nowadays and they're using more tricks that you've never seen, so don't be deceived." Susan was even more upset when she saw how Old Master Crawford defended Luca, so she pointed out that Luca was a liar.

Old Master Crawford had a gloomy expression. As expected, Susan would not be bothered to think about her reputation when she went crazy. She was like this with Allison and now, with Luca.

Was she trying to badmouth Luke by hinting that Luca was a liar?

Old Master Crawford was very fond of Luca and would never allow such a thing to happen.

Just as he was about to speak, Luke's voice could be heard from the stairs. "Mother, are you doubting the professional skills of the person I hired?"

Susan looked up at Luke and frowned. It seemed like he was involved now.

She already felt pressured from facing Old Master Crawford. Now that she had to face Luke, her imposing manner immediately dimmed. She had no choice but to explain, "I just raised a reasonable suspicion, Luke. How many people are able to possess pharmaceutical knowledge and are able to treat patients by taking their pulse? Even if you know some of them, they're probably just pretending. I don't want your grandfather to get scammed. I'm doing this for his own good."

"I'm not as naive as you think." Old Master Crawford had a stern expression. He mercilessly exposed her, then leaned on his cane and stood up. "I know everything about what happens in Crawford Manor. I know all about what everyone here does. As long as it doesn't harm the Crawford family, I won't say anything about it. However, it doesn't mean that I'm unaware and not watching."

Susan had chills down her spine. He was hinting at her.

She had indeed done some stuff behind the old master's back, but they were all done for her benefit.

These things did not affect the Crawford family's benefit for now, but it was hard to say whether it would later on.

The reason for doing these things was simple. She felt threatened. The old master's gaze was so intimidating she could not help but dodge it.

Luke saw the way Susan reacted and understood what was going on.

Old Master Crawford knew everything Susan did behind his back. He just did not stop her for the time being because it did not harm the interests of the Crawford family.
