Chapter 3177 The Seed Of Misunderstanding


    "Invading your privacy? Are you kidding me? You''re my son! It''s only right that I do this!" Susan did not


    feel she was in the wrong at all. She let out a cold sneer and added, "Louis, I raised you and let you


    grow up safely in such aplex family environment.


    "Now that you''ve grown up, you can''t wait to soar free, huh? Let me tell you, you can''t ignore me. No


    matter what, I''m still your mother, got it? I''m your mother, and you have to listen to me. So, move back


    here!"


    "I''m not moving back." Louis took a deep breath, restraining the anger inside him.


    In his eyes, Susan''s every move seemed excessively controlling.


    He used to understand her strong need for control, especially when the heir to the family had not been


    determined yet. He could understand how difficult it was for Susan to ept his father taking in another


    woman and even having a child with her. Hence, he would cooperate with her and satisfy her maternal


    desire for control.


    Now, he did not feel the need toply with her desire to control anymore. He had his own career


    now, and the amodation provided by Luke wasfortable for all three of them. There was simply


    no need to move back.


    "You used toin about the vi being too small, didn''t you? Isn’t it perfect for you to live alone?


    You don''t even want to take care of Thea.


    Now, you get to live alone in the vi without any kids bothering you. What more could you ask for?"


    Louis'' words felt like heavy stones pressing on Susan''s heart. Susan did not expect Louis to say such


    things!


    Even though these were all things she had said before, they were said with


    the intention of convincing them to move back to Crawford Manor with her. Louis was not stupid. How


    could he not know?


    He knew, but he used those words to shut her down.


    A wave of anger burned within Susan. "Why didn''t you listen to what I said before? Now that you''ve


    moved out, do you think you can get away from me? You''re using what I said to shut me up?


    "Louis, I''m your mother! No matter what, I''m still your mother. Don''t even think about getting away from


    me like this!"


    "I never thought about getting away from you." Louis shook his head and looked at her angry face. He


    calmed down in an instant.


    "But I have my own life, my own career. Since everything shes with your beliefs, I think it''s best we


    don''t live under the same roof. If you feel ufortable without a few people around to serve you, I


    can hire more maids for you.


    "If anything happens, I''lle back to see you immediately. And I''ll bring Thea back to visit you every


    weekend. But I won''t move back in."


    His life had finally settled down, and there was no one to nag him about his career. Nobody would


    criticize him for not being ambitious enough either. These peaceful days were wonderful.


    Why would he be foolish enough to give that up and move back to endure Susan''s nagging?


    He was not foolish at all...


    "You insist on not moving back?" Susan stared at him.


    Louis was puzzled as well. Why was her desire to control him getting stronger?


    Even Allison could move out on her own when she had enough money. She was not willing to help with


    babysitting or live with Luke either. If Allison could do it, why not Susan?


    "I''m not moving back, and as for selling thepany, I suggest you give up on trying to persuade me. I


    won''t let anyone buy thepany. Moreover, the person behind this is Grandpa.


    "He wanted to give me a chance to return to T Corporation, but I turned it down. Grandpa said he


    wouldn''t try to persuade me to go back to T Corporation anymore. If I ever decide to return, I''ll just talk


    to him or Luke directly.


    "So, nobody''s interested in buying mypany, and I won''t go back to work at T Corporation. Just


    drop it." Louis simply revealed what sparked this whole thing.


    It was this unintentional move from Old Master Crawford that made their mother-son rtionship stiffen


    to this point.


    After moving out, Louis realized how wonderful life was for the three of them. He and Yuri did not have


    to face Susan''s pressure for childbirth anymore. Also, they did not have to listen to Susan''s sighs about


    not having enough money or about how Louis should be earning more.


    They no longer had to endure Susan''s constant inquiries about how thepany was doing, always


    comparing it to T Corporation.


    Louis felt immensely rxed after moving out. Without the pressure from Susan, he felt much more


    energetic and motivated in his work.


    Hispany was capable of making profits too. Even though the profits were not as exaggerated as T


    Corporation, it was one of the more profitablepanies in the industry.


    Furthermore, with him being one of the members of the Crawford family, many were willing to


    coborate with him.


    Louis thought this kind of life was great. Even though he was born into wealth, he could make his own


    money with his skills. Plus, it was way easier than managing T Corporation, and he had more time to


    be with his wife and kids. What was not to love about that?


    Susan did not understand the benefits of this.


    She could notprehend that even if he left his ownpany and returned to work at T Corporation,


    he would not be as capable as Luke.


    Original content from N?velDrama.Org.


    Luke was not just a simple CEO in the construction industry. He was also an architect. If he wanted to


    participate in anypetition, he would surely win first ce. If it were not for T Corporation, he might


    be working in a world-famous architectural firm.


    "What did you say?!" Susan''s voice was sharp. She had thought there was really someone interested


    in acquiring Louis''s smallpany.


    In the end, it was Old Master Crawford who was behind this!


    Why would he do such a thing?! Did he want Louis to return to work at T Corporation, or did he want to


    cause conflict between the mother and son?


    Susan furrowed her brows tightly. The old master knew that what she wanted most was for Louis to


    return to work at thepany.


    If she knew someone wanted to acquire Louis''pany, she would definitely spare no effort to make


    Louis sell it and return to work at T Corporation. As Louis'' grandfather, Old Master Crawford certainly


    knew how important Louis''pany was to him.


    So, Old Master Crawford did that to cause a conflict between them, right?


    Susan even felt that Old Master Crawford did that to consolidate Luke''s position in T Corporation and


    to secure Luke''s inheritance!


    She could not help but feel resentful at how heartless Old Master Crawford was. He resorted to such


    tactics for Luke''s sake. Once Louis resisted, Louis would be even more determined not to go back to T


    Corporation.


    Louis did not know that revealing this matter would lead Susan to misunderstand Old Master Crawford


    so deeply.


    Once the seed of misunderstanding was nted in one''s heart, it would be difficult to uproot.
