Chapter 948 No Matter How Useless She Might Be, She Is His Mother


    Allison became nervous, seeing that Luke did not say anything. She had already maxed out her credit


    card, and she would be cklisted if she did not repay the debt.


    One of her friends was the wife of a banker. Everyone would know if she got cklisted.


    "Can you bear to see your mother starve?" Allison began to cry again. Her red and puffy eyes looked


    more realistic than ever. Rather than trying to evoke pity from her son, those were tears of desperation.


    Luke stood there with his hands in his pockets and looked at his mother coldly.


    Allison was used to Luke''s cold treatment, but she was losing her temper.


    No matter how useless she might be, she was nheless his mother!


    Allison did not want to throw tantrums because she wanted money. All she could do was cry and evoke


    pity.


    Luke was getting impatient with his mother''s waterworks. Through the entirety of Riley’s incident, his


    mother had never even given him a phone call.


    Now that the matter was settled, he saw her in Crawford Manor. She said that she missed him, but she


    actually missed his money.


    "How much do you want?" Luke said coldly.


    Allison instantly stopped crying. She wanted to ask for a big figure, but she remembered that Luke had


    only given her three million dors when she asked for thirty million.


    At that time, T Corporation was facing a financial crisis, and he did not have much cash. Now that the


    situation was different, she expected that she could ask for more. "Mm, how about five million?" She


    said as she syed a hand.


    Luke frowned even harder.


    Allison exined sheepishly when she saw that, "I have some credit card debt to pay. Also, I''ll have to


    pay maintenance fees for the mansion and the caretakers'' sry..." "Mother, do you think that the


    Crawford family prints money?" Luke thought that his mother was getting greedier than ever. She had


    easily squandered three million. Even if he gave her the full five million, it would not take long for her to


    spend it all.


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    For an ordinary A City citizen, five million dors was enough tost a lifetime.


    Allison''s eyes were bloodshot, and she pretended that she was losing her temper. "I''ve suffered so


    much when giving birth to you, and I''ve waited for you to be a sessful man. I''m not asking too


    much for you other than money. Now that T Corporation has solved its financial crisis, you should have


    a lot of cash on hand..."


    Luke''s expression was as dark as ink. He took out his phone and transferred one million dors to


    Allison''s ount.


    Allison was delighted when she received the transfer notification. When she looked at the amount on


    her phone, she eximed in surprise, "What? Only one million?"


    Luke was already walking out of the study.


    Allison quickly followed behind him. "You can''t treat me like this, my son.


    That won’tst two weeks."


    The three million dors that he gave her vanished in the blink of an eye. What was she going to do


    with only one million dors?


    Her exquisite meals, her beauty essence, and the maintenance of all the beauty treatment machines


    needed money!


    "One million dors is more than enough. You''ll also be receiving dividends from your T Corporation


    shares next month. That''ll be enough for a few months," Luke said as he opened the door.


    He did not mind supporting his mother in her old age, but that did not mean that she could be wasteful.


    "We''re not even halfway through the month yet, and the dividends will only be paid at the end of next


    month. One million isn''t going to be enough.


    How about two million? Can you give me two million?" She followed closely behind him, hoping that he


    would give her more money.


    Luke ignored her and left the room.


    Allison stood at the door. She did not chase after him. It would be embarrassing for her to do so.


    Susan was downstairs waiting to watch the drama.


    Allison wanted to smash something, but she was in Old Master Crawford''s study, and there were many


    expensive antiques there. She dared not smash anything there, and she could only restrain herself.


    She looked around the room, and her eyes eventually fell on the desk.


    There was an inkwell that she had never seen before. Perhaps it was a new addition to Old Master


    Crawford''s collection.


    Allison had learned some antique appraisal skills to gain Old Master Crawford''s favor. She walked up


    to the desk, gently picked up the inkwell, and carefully scrutinized it. "This is worth a lot!" She


    eximed softly.


    She thought of the one million dors that Luke had given her. That was not going to be enough...


    Allison thought of an idea. However, she did not take the inkwell. Instead, she put it back where it


    belonged and went downstairs.


    If the inkwell went missing, even an idiot would know that she took it. It was not the time to steal it.


    Allison walked down the stairs. She saw Luke ying chess with Old Master Crawford in the living


    room, while Bianca was feeding her children fruit.


    She grunted coldly and returned to her mansion.


    Elise stood up from the couch as soon as she heard the sound of her employer''s caring from afar.


    She waited at the front door and smiled as Allison walked in. "Wee home, Madam."


    Allison was not in a good mood. Luke had given her money, but the amount was less than she


    expected. She had a feeling that Luke would be giving her less and less money.


    If she did not have money, she would not be able to maintain her current lifestyle...


    Allison sat on the couch with a sullen expression on her face.


    Elise could tell that her employer was in a bad mood. She served Allison a cup of floral tea and lowered


    the music in the background.


    "Please have some tea, Madam," she said softly so that she did not disturb Allison.


    Allison felt a little better after taking a sip. ’ Where''s Elsa?" She asked.


    "Elsa is preparing the beauty essence in the salon. The sunlight is quite strong today, and you''ll need


    special treatment to maintain your youth and vibrancy," Elise exined.


    The beauty essence that Allison had been using was depleted. Elsa brought in another batch.


    While Allison was not around, Elsa had to mix the low-quality beauty essence with other ingredients so


    that it seemed high-quality.


    "The two of you know me very well," Allison''s mood brightened, and the anger she had umted at


    Crawford Manor dissipated by a lot.


    Stood up and said, "I want my beauty treatment now. Right, I haven''t had lunch yet. GO and cook


    something for me." "Yes, Madam." Elise smiled sweetly. After she saw Allison go up the stairs, she sent


    a message with the number "1" to Elsa.


    That was the secret message between the siblings. It meant that their employer was home.


    After receiving the message, Elsa began to make her preparations.


    When Allison entered the beauty salon, Elsa had already prepared a towel and had switched on the


    machinery.


    "Wee home, Madam." She smiled and spread out the towel on the bed.


    "Mm.’ Allison went over and sat down on the bed.


    Elsa draped a bathrobe over Allison and took off her slippers.


    After Allisony on the bed, Elsa carefully covered her with a nket. "How long have you been in the


    sun today, Madam? I''ll prepare the appropriate amount of beauty essence."
