Chapter 2429
Allison picked up the nail file on the coffee table and filed her nails. She rolled her eyes when she heard what Sophian said.
"New Year holidays aren't over yet. Why are you rushing to go back?"
"I'm worried that Mr. Crawford will retaliate against me..." Sophian had no choice but to express her worries.
"If I can save you once, I can save you the second time. You weren't sent to the police station today, and you won't be sent to the police station any time soon. The living conditions in A City are much better than in South Korea. I don't want to go back so soon." Allison did not intend to give up celebrating the new year in A City.
Moreover, she had a much more comfortable life here than abroad as she had a maid to take care of her.
Since Allison was unwilling to return to Korea, Sophian had to give up the idea as she had no extra money to buy the expensive international airline ticket.
Allison touched her dry face and commanded Sophian, "Go and prepare a mask for me. My skin feels dry after staying in the heating room for too long."
"Okay, Ms. Allison. Give me a moment." Sophian stopped massaging her, pulled out a few tissues, picked up the bowl on the floor, and wiped the semi-solidified mask liquid.
Sophian did not care if it was clean and walked upstairs with the bowl in hand.
On the other hand.
Luke left the villa with Luca.
Luca glanced back the moment the villa door closed.
"What are you looking at?" Luke noticed her actions.
Luca shook her head and replied, "It's nothing. I just don't think she looks like your mother."
"She changed a long time ago," Luke said.
Gale opened the backseat door and asked, "Boss, do you want to go back now?"
"Mm." Luke protected Luca's forehead and asked her to get in the car before he got in from the other side of the car.
After the two got into the car, Gale started the drive back.
Luke took out his phone and called the butler.
"Master Luke, what can I do for you?" the butler asked after the call was connected.
Luke had put his phone on loudspeaker, so Luca could hear the butler. She looked at him, confused.
She felt that what he was about to say had something to do with Allison.
"Have the maid in Allison's villa move back to Crawford Manor," Luke said.
"Master Luke, is there something wrong with the maid serving Madam Allison?" the butler asked.
He did not question Luke as Allison was notoriously difficult to serve.
When Luke was in an accident, Allison bought the villa and Old Master Crawford assigned her two maids.
In the end, both maids were returned to Crawford Manor because Allison felt that their service was unprofessional.
Both maids were professionally trained and had worked at Crawford Manor for many years. No one had ever complained about them.
The maids told them that they could not serve Allison and that they would resign and find another workplace if they could not return to Crawford Manor.
The maids went back to work at Crawford Manor, and Allison's reputation for being difficult also spread like wildfire.
He had to ask several maids before he found one who was willing to serve Allison.
"The maid is great, but Allison doesn't need one." Luke reached out and grabbed Luca's hand.
After being outside for a while, her hands, which were previously warmed by him, had turned cold once more.
Luke spread out his palm and tucked her hand into it.
"Okay, I get it, Master Luke. I'll call the maid now." The butler knew something must have happened with Allison.
Nevertheless, he was not in the position to ask Luke what was going on.
"Have the maid keep it to herself for now," Luke said.
"Okay, I know what to do." After he said that, the butler was even more sure that Luke was having the maid go back to Crawford Manor because Allison had pissed him off.
She asked for it.
The butler did not know what was going on, but he knew that nothing could go wrong if he listened to Luke.
After Luke ended the call, Luca asked softly, "Mr. Crawford, Ms. Tanner will be mad if you remove the maid. Aren't you worried that she'll harass you?"
"She won't be able to find me," Luke said. He was certain that Allison did not know where he lived.
"However, she could go to Crawford Manor and disturb Old Master Crawford," Luca said. That was the worse option.
Allison was a woman who would do such a thing.
She would do anything for money and comfortable life.
"She won't dare. If she dares, Sophian will go to jail." A hint of viciousness flashed through Luke's eyes.
If Allison wanted to protect Sophian, she would have to sacrifice her comfortable life in A City.
She would not have a maid to serve her nor a chauffeur to pick her up, but she would not starve to death. After all, he had already transferred her monthly expenses into her account.
Luke picked up his phone and informed Lliam that he would no longer be responsible for driving Allison around.
Gale was driving and could not help but laugh. "Boss, you're so wise. Because of what went down, she doesn't dare to let Sophian talk to the police. She knows that things will go down if she does."
Luca pursed her lips. 'Can this matter with Sophian stop Allison?'
She was worried that Allison would get upset and turn Crawford Manor upside down...
Allison soon discovered that the maid had left.
The maid said that she was going to the supermarket to buy groceries but did not come back even after two hours.
Allison asked Sophian to call the maid.
Sophian picked up the landline and dialed the maid's number, but the call was not connected. There was a cold female voice who said that the caller was on the phone and for her to call again later.
"Ms. Allison, the call didn't get through.” She turned around and told Allison, who was eating fruit.
"Dial again." Allison did not take her eyes off the TV. "Dial until she answers. I'm starving!"
"Okay." Sophian called the number back, but it still did not go through.
She reluctantly put down the handset, picked up her phone, and called the maid.
It was still the same.
Sophian said, "Ms. Allison, the maid is still on a call. Should I wait five minutes and call again?"
"Mm." Allison was not too bothered.
Five minutes later, Sophian picked up the phone and called the maid again. It still did not go through. She frowned and asked Allison, "Ms. Allison, can I borrow your phone?"
"What for?" Allison turned around to look at her, but she did not hand her the phone immediately.
"She's still on the phone. I think the maid blocked my number," Sophian said. She guessed that the maid was not happy with her, so she deliberately blocked her number.
After all, she was not one of the Crawfords and had even spiked Luke's drink.
Luke almost blamed the maid, so it was possible that she would block Sophian.
"How troublesome! How dare she block you..." Allison's face had minor changes every day, so she could not use the face ID to unlock her phone. She took out a tissue, wiped her fingers, and pressed her thumb on the fingerprint sensor.
