Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle



Chapter 3324 Do You Think You Can Earn That Much Money?

Susan, undeterred by the warning, shot back, "Isn't all his money from T Corporation? Father, what you said was pointless."

Old Master Crawford glared at her fiercely. "If you were given a chance to work at the company, do you think you could eam that much money?"

Susan's family background was quite wealthy. She was raised as a pampered young lady, so she never learned how to make money.

Once she realized this, she chose to become a housewife in the Crawford family and stopped considering working at the company. She focused on raising Louis, planning for him to work at the company once he grew up.

Little did she expect that after Louis worked at T Corporation for a few years, he would start his own business, leading to a conflict between them. It felt like a slap in the face!

Susan's face turned slightly pale as she muttered, "..."

"Enough! You can't make money yourself, so why are you even talking? Luke's the one bringing in the cash, and in the end, aren't you the one benefiting from it? Sometimes, you just need to know when to be grateful," warned Old Master Crawford.

For decades, he had been frustrated with Susan's incompetence and her tendency to stir up trouble. It was annoying!

Susan paused for a moment, then coldly huffed. "Father, you're just biased toward Luke. Once his mother comes back and turns the Crawford family upside down, you'll regret it."

Old Master Crawford's expression darkened. When he was about to scold Susan, she turned around and walked away.

"Utter nonsense!" Old Master Crawford huffed while slamming his cane against the floor.

"Sir, please calm down," advised Mr. Griffin. He had served Old Master Crawford for years and knew well what kind of person Susan was. He also understood her fears. She was worried that Allison's return would threaten her position.

The rivalry between the daughters-in-law of the Crawford family mainly boiled down to the clash between these two women, and Old Master Crawford had been irritated by it for decades without a good solution.

That was why he was particularly strict with his grandsons, Luke and Louis.

Before marriage, they could choose whoever they wanted to be with.

However, once they were married, there would be no messing around. The old master was seriously worried his grandsons would end up like their father, causing trouble and ending up with two wives.

With both wives vying for attention, it would be complete chaos.

Zachary passed away early, so he could not witness the conflicts between his two wives, but Old Master Crawford was certainly worn out by their constant bickering.

"I wish I could stay calm, but just look at what's going on." The look on Old Master Crawford's face was helpless as he glared in the direction Susan had left. "Find out who leaked the news about Allison coming back."

"Yes, sir. Let me help you back to your room to rest, replied Mr. Griffin as he helped the old master.

Old Master Crawford had a grim expression on his face. After returning to his room and lying down, Mr. Griffin called all the household staff together to start an investigation.

Before long, they found out who informed Susan.

The maid had not considered that things would escalate this much, so she did not delete her call records. When

confronted, she immediately knelt down and pleaded, "Mr. Griffin, I didn't mean to! It was Madam Susan who told me to do it. If I didn't, she said she'd fire me! I was scared, and in a moment of confusion, I just..."

Mr. Griffin looked coldly at the pleading maid. After dismissing the other maids, he said to her, "It's not Madam Susan who pays your salary. She doesn't have the authority to fire you."

The maid shook her head. "That's not true! She said that if she could pin some kind of fault on me, she could get me fired. I was scared, so I did it. Besides, it's not a secret. Madam Susan would've found out sooner or later, right?"

Mr. Griffin heaved a sigh and shook his head.

Susan would eventually learn about it, but if she had not found out about it today, Old Master Crawford might have been in a better mood.

Now, Old Master Crawford was in a terrible mood because of both Allison and Susan. It was a mess.

So, this maid was bound to be in trouble.

"You know family matters can't be spread around. We covered that during the training, right?" questioned Mr. Griffin.

"Yes, but Madam Susan isn't just some outsider! I didn't do anything wrong or violate any employee rules," cried the maid.

"Outsiders' refer to anyone who doesn't live in Crawford Manor. Don't argue with me. What's done is done. Old Master Crawford has made it clear that he wants to find out who leaked this information and have them fired on the spot.

"Since you've been working here for a long time, I'm giving you two choices. First, you can take your salary and leave, or second, you can work with Madam Susan while also keeping an eye on her for Old Master Crawford.

"If anything happens, you need to report it back here immediately. It's up to you."

Mr. Griffin felt a pang of sympathy for the maid. She had worked at Crawford Manor for many years.

He remembered that her family was having a difficult time, and firing her would only make things worse for her. That was why he offered her a choice.

"If I work for Madam Susan, will the salary..." The maid hesitated for a moment. She had been feeling hopeless, but hearing there was still a chance, she wanted more details.

"Your salary will increase a little, but not by much. However, if you know Madam Susan is up to something and you fail to report it in a timely manner, the consequence will still be immediate termination," explained Mr. Griffin.

Currently, the maids and drivers working for Susan were all on Crawford Manor's payroll. Susan did not pay a dime.

"Okay, I'll go work with Madam Susan. Don't worry, Mr. Griffin. I'll report to you in detail if I learn anything. But if there are things I'm unaware of that Madam Susan does, you can't hold that against me," replied the maid. Mr. Griffin nodded. "Don't worry. I have a set evaluation system. As long as you're acting for Old Master Crawford's sake, whether you succeed or fail, I'll consider your efforts fairly and won't wrong you."

"Mr. Griffin, with your assurance, I feel relieved. I'm willing to work with Madam Susan." The maid let out a sigh of relief. She had managed to keep her job.

The slight increase in salary meant her family would not experience drastic changes due to her unemployment.

Thank goodness...

"It's getting late. You may clock out for now. I'll find a reason for you to start working with Madam Susan in the next few days," said Mr. Griffin as he turned around to leave.

"Thank you, Mr. Griffin." The maid thanked him and quickly left the room.

Luca and Luke returned home. The kids went upstairs to wash up and prepare for bed.

Luca intended to discuss Allison's situation with Luke when a call from Gale came in.

"Ms. Craw, I've got everything planned for tomorrow night! Are you able to make it to the confession?" Gale asked excitedly.

Luca had the call on speaker and glanced at Luke before replying, "Sure, but why the rush?"

"I'm just really eager, so I paid extra to the planning company," said Gale, sounding a bit embarrassed. "Um, could you bring Boss along too?"From NôvelDrama.Org.
