The notary immediately understood what was going on once he heard that. He nodded and stopped gossiping about Luke.

After all, he had met people like Luke before. Who would truly live like a saint?

The notary smiled and forgot about it at the thought of this.

He was instructed by his superior to deal with some matters. All he had to do was get his job done. There was no need for him to lose his job for gossip.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting." Luke's voice rang in their ears.

Mr. Zac stood up and looked at the stairs. He smiled and replied, "Happy New Year, Mr. Crawford."

"Mr. Crawford, Happy New Year," the notary immediately greeted him too.

"Happy New Year. Do you mind waiting for a while?" Luke asked. He called Mr. Griffin before he headed downstairs. Luke had instructed Mr. Griffin last night. He wanted him to report Allison's whereabouts to him.

Allison woke up one and a half an hour ago, and she left Crawford Manor an hour ago.

Only after Allison left the house did Luke inform Mr. Zac to come here with the notary.

Luke did not expect them to arrive here earlier.

"It's okay. We're available today. Right, James?" Mr. Zac turned to look at the notary.

"Yeah, right." James secretly mumbled to himself that it was not up to him to decide whether or not he had to work today. He had no choice but to wait.

"Here. Have some tea." Luke entertained them.

15 minutes later, the doorbell rang.

Aunt Neile went to answer the door. When she realized it was Allison who was outside the neighborhood's entrance, she immediately informed Luke, "Mr. Crawford, it's Madam Allison."

"Yeah. I asked the property manager to let her in," said Luke. He asked the management to remove Allison's name from the blacklist. That way, he would be able to know she was here.
