Chapter 3289 The Bride Visits Home

Before Louis and his wife could respond, Old Master Crawford said, "The child used to be frail, so it's normal for her to get sick sometimes. Look at her now. She's full of energy and much more cheerful than before. Was she ever like this when she was living with you?"

Louis nodded in agreement with the old master.

When Thea lived with Susan, she was timid and had poor mental health.

However, ever since they moved out, Louis noticed that Thea was getting happier by the day.

Originally, Louis thought it was because he and his wife were too busy and had neglected their child, which caused her emotional issues.

Now, he finally realized it was Susan who had been pressuring her all along.

Without that pressure, Thea was thriving.

Even her psychologist was amazed by the rapid progress she had made and praised them as good parents. However, Louis knew the truth.

The reason Thea was doing so well was that he had firmly insisted on taking her out of that environment. Even Susan had to admit Thea looked much better now and seemed happier. If it were not for the occasional cough, one would not even know she was sick.

Still, Susan did not think Louis and his wife deserved any credit. She stubbornly explained, "The psychologist said she was almost better anyway, Isn't it normal for her to be doing well now?"

Louis could not be bothered to argue with her. He knew why Thea had improved, and there was no need to air it out in front of everyone. It would only embarrass Susan, and he would end up being the one caught in the crossfire.

Old Master Crawford rolled his eyes, well aware of Susan's thoughts.

The child only improved after leaving her.

Was that not enough to prove that something was wrong with Susan's way of raising her?

Louis exchanged a glance with Luke, who gave him a slight nod.

Neither Luke nor Luca said a word. Luca checked her phone and said, "Mr. Mallory and Nina are almost here."

"They're almost here?" Old Master Crawford's face lit up with a smile.

"Yes, Old Master Crawford," replied Luca.
