Chapter 1024 The Antiques Are In Her Safe


    Bianca touched Rainie''s head and did not answer her question. Instead, she asked, "Rainie, do you


    want to go to sster?"


    Rainie and Lanie had extracurricr sses nned for the day, but to make Allison happy, Bianca


    took a leave of absence for them and brought them to Allison''s ce instead.


    However, Allison was pulling a long face and was not weing, so she nned to leave after Luke


    took the box.


    Rainie did not think too much about it and nodded, saying, "Okay, Mommy." "I''m going too," nche


    said. If it were not for his mother''s request, he would already be in his extracurricr ss.


    Elsa brought out a pot of tea and walked to the living room. She saw Bianca still standing there and


    greeted her, "Madam, take a seat and have a cup of tea."


    Bianca shook her head and replied, "No, we’re leaving soon."


    When Bianca said that, Elsa nced at the children with a smile while saying, "Okay, I''ll go back to the


    kitchen first. If there’s anything you need, let me know."


    Bianca nodded and watched her walk away with coquetry. She wondered in her heart whether Elsa


    was really a caretaker.


    Upstairs.


    Luke''s legs were longer than Allison''s, so he quickly arrived at the second floor. He had not been here


    before and tried to open the doors of each room.


    He saw Allison''s bedroom, the guest room, and her vanity room. Even though he opened the doors, he


    did not go in. He was just looking for the study.


    Finally, in the penultimate room at the end of the corridor, he stopped and twisted the doorknob. He


    found that the door of this room was locked.


    Allison arrived angrily and looked at him with her hands on her waist." Luke, what are you doing? This


    is not the Crawford Manor nor your home!"


    Luke looked at her with a chilly expression and said, "This is the study, right?"


    He was familiar with theyout of a mansion like this. Thest room would usually be amon


    bathroom. Allison’s mansion had only two floors, and none of the rooms he visited earlier were the


    study. Hence, he was sure this was the study.


    Allison bit her red lip, her expression a little contorted.


    "Mother, why did you lock the study? Is there something important inside?" Luke asked. Of all the


    rooms in her mansion, this was the only room that was locked. It was indeed unusual.


    "What do you think can be inside? I want to have collectibles too, but unfortunately, you’re an unfilial


    son. Even if I want to collect something, I don''t have the money for it," Allison said with a stubborn


    expression, her tone filled withints about being wronged.


    "I want to take my father''s box." Luke stood aside and waited for her to open the door.


    Allison did not move as if she had not heard what he said.


    Luke raised his eyebrows, put his big palm on the doorknob, and twisted hard.


    The doorknob made a ''click'' sound.


    Allison was startled. Luke wanted to use brute force and break the door lock. Passive resistance was


    useless, so she pped his hand and said," Don''t break my lock."


    With that, she took a key from her pocket and opened the door to the study.


    There was only one key for this door, and she kept it on her to prevent Elsa and Elsie from entering the


    study. If Luke broke the lock and she could not lock the door after, it would cause even more trouble for


    her.


    Although no one knew that there were antiques worth hundreds of millions of dors hidden in the safe


    inside the study, Allison was still cautious.

    These antiques were valuable. They were her lifeline!


    Allison walked in, took out a box from the drawer of the desk, and handed it to Luke. "This is the box


    your dad left you. I haven''t touched the contents inside. Take it and leave quickly."


    She expressed her hostility.


    Luke picked up the sandalwood box and nced at the study. The bookshelves were full of books, but


    they were all bought by Allison for appearance''s sake. The books were all brand new as though they


    had never been flipped through.


    Apart from that, there were no other luxurious furnishings. He nced at the huge safe in the corner


    and then walked out of the study.


    Allison walked out and locked the door of the study.


    Luke nced back.


    She was frightened by his gaze and put the key back in her pocket. She asked, "What are you looking


    at?" "Your safe is a new product that was developed earlier this year. It’s imported from Germany."


    Luke finished speaking and turned around to leave.


    Allison was stunned.


    The safe in the study was one of the most advanced in the world. Without a password, there was no


    other way to open it except with explosives.


    In addition, there were infrared detectors and rms on the four corners of the safe. If someone


    touched it and did not enter the password within five seconds, the rm would sound. If the correct


    password was not keyed in within five minutes, the rm would automatically make a report to the


    nearest police station.


    Under normal circumstances, such advanced products were not used in homes.


    Allison felt dizzy as she watched Luke leave. She did not go downstairs but returned to her bedroom


    while rubbing her forehead.


    She thought that having a kid meant her future would be secured, but she failed to raise a son who


    could provide for her. Not only did she have to earn her own money but she also had to be alert around


    him.


    Allison had a splitting headache andy on the bed.


    Luke went downstairs, walked to Bianca''s side, and said, "Let''s go." "Okay." Bianca nodded. Looking at


    the sandalwood box in his hand, she wondered why he had not mentioned this box when he had been


    back a long time ago.


    It seemed to her that the box was just an excuse for him toe here.


    After Luke drove nche and Rainie to their extracurricr sses, he drove back.


    Tommy murmured that he was sleepy. Bianca sat in the backseat, ced Tommy in her arms, and let


    him fall asleep in her embrace.


    After the car drove for a while, Luke broke the silence. "There''s an imported safe in her study. It was


    justunched earlier this year."


    Someone from a securitypany had rmended it to him before, but Luke did not have much of


    an interest in collecting precious goods, so he did not buy it. However, he was well aware of what this


    safe could do.


    Bianca paused and expressed her suspicion, "Are you saying that the antiques are in her safe?"


    "Perhaps." Luke had his doubts even before Gordan came.


    However, no matter what, Allison was a member of the Crawford family.


    Although he was suspicious, he did notunch an investigation into it.


    Later, he got Gordan to change the direction of the investigation. The more he investigated, the more


    he believed that Allison was involved in the break -in.


    Before and after the incident, she had appeared on the first floor of Crawford Mansion. They had


    looked into her bank''s records and found that she withdrew arge sum of money from the bank after


    the break-in. She still owed money for her credit cards.


    Gordan was trying to get ess to Allison''s dashcam but she had not left her residence for a few days,


    so he was waiting for the perfect timing to make a move.


    Tommy was in a sleepy daze. He opened his eyes and looked at Bianca." Mommy, what antiques are


    you talking about?"


    Bianca touched his head and whispered, "It''s nothing, Tommy. Go back to sleep."


    Tommy pursued his mouth and closed his eyes.


    The atmosphere in the car was slightly intense. Luke drove Bianca and Tommy home, saying, "I''m


    going to the office." "Okay." Bianca got out of the car with Tommy and wanted to ask Luke what he was


    going to do if the person behind the break-in was really Allison.


    In the end, she did not ask because she knew the answer.


    Luke was always fair and just.
