Luca took a bite of the bread and glanced at the man beside her. His face was expressionless and cold. There seemed to be no fluctuations in his mood…

She suddenly regretted going to sleep…

Luca knew that she had the habit of talking in her sleep. She was afraid that he had heard her say something just now…

It was not the best idea to ask him whether he heard anything. Since Luke did not say anything, she would just pretend that she did not know anything…

Half an hour later, the plane landed safely at A City Airport.

When the two dragged their luggage out of the airport, they saw Zander waiting at the gate.

Jason had arranged for this and Luca knew about it. As Luke’s special assistant, Jason had everything planned out.

Zander saw them coming out. He respectfully walked over and said, “Young Master Luke, Ms. Luca, good morning.”

“Good morning, Zander.” Luca had a good impression of the Crawford family’s driver and greeted him with a small smile.

Zander returned the smile and put their suitcases in the car.

Luke and Luca got into the car.

Zander asked, “Young Master Luke, are you going back to the office, Crawford Manor, or somewhere else?”

“We’re heading to the prison,” Luke said.

Zander responded and started the car. He knew that they were going to the prison to visit Allison.

Jason had not notified Zander of the reason prior to this. He wondered why Luke came back so early and he now understood that it was because of Allison…

Luke, who had a successful career, was in an unimaginable situation for having a mother like Allison.

Zander drove them to the prison.

With Jason’s driving skills, Johann and the lawyer did not have to wait for too long. Johann whistled when he saw Luca and Luke get out of the car. “You’re finally here! Dr. Craw, good morning. Sorry to have you run around so early in the morning.”

Luca smiled and shook her head. “Don’t worry about it.”

“If it wasn’t for someone’s mother being too difficult to deal with, I would never take up your vacation time. How was B City? Was it fun?” Johann asked. Allison had made him feel helpless for the last couple of days. When he talked about the matter, he could not help but be a little enigmatic.

“Not bad.” Luca noticed the wound on Johann’s face and asked, “Dr. Park, what happened to your face?”

“Ms. Tanner scratched me with her fingernails.” Johann touched his face. The day prior, Allison was extremely dissatisfied with his treatment plan and harmed him physically.

He was caught off guard. Even though Allison was eventually held down by the prison guard, his face was still scratched.

Fortunately, the wound was not deep and would not leave scars on his handsome face. However, he was very annoyed to be in this situation. His medical skills and reputation were top-notch. No patient had ever dared to treat him like this…

Luca glanced at the wound on his face. It was not too deep and would heal in two days.

She asked, “What’s the deal with Ms. Tanner?”

Johann rolled his eyes at Luke. He felt that it was not fair that he had to treat Allison while Luke went on vacation.

“What’s the matter? She can’t accept the reality that her face can’t be restored to its original state,” he said and glanced at the lawyer. “You remember how I recommended a doctor to her? The doctor told her the truth during a face-to-face consultation about how her face can’t be repaired. She wouldn’t accept it and yelled at the doctor. The doctor refused to grant me this favor, so…”

Johann touched his face. ‘So… the bad luck came to me.’

Luke frowned as he listened to Johann’s words. “That doctor won’t operate on her?” copyrighted © content.

“Yeah, he told her frankly that no matter the method, it won’t work. It’s too difficult. Oh yes, the doctor also said that this kind of damage is permanent and can’t be repaired. He asked her to accept the reality of things.” Johann told Luke everything that the doctor said to him.

Luke did not expect that the doctor would be unwilling to cooperate. All he had to do was give Allison a sleeping pill, send her to the operating table, and wait for some time to pass.

“Yeah, it makes sense for him to say that. It’s irreversible damage. There’s no point deceiving her and giving her false hope. It’s better to tell her the truth earlier so that she won’t expect things to get back to

normal. The best option for her is to take her medicine on time and prevent her skin from getting worse,” Johann said.

Luca glanced at Luke, who was frowning as if he was troubled by what Johann had said.

The plastic surgeon they found was a first-class doctor in the industry. There was nothing they could do if even he was not willing to fool Allison.

Allison was not a fool either. She certainly would not trust other doctors to cure her face.

Based on the current situation, Allison would not agree to meet any doctor if they were not famous…

That meant that Luke could not just find any doctor to fool Allison. She definitely would not be fooled after what had happened.

The lawyer chimed in, “Mr. Crawford, you have to think of a way now. Those psychiatrists said that Ms. Tanner’s mental state is terrible and she’s showing some symptoms of depression. She will be released soon. It’s best if nothing bad happens before that.”

Luke nodded and said, “Let’s go in and see what’s going on.”

Johann shuddered a little and told Luca, “Dr. Craw, you must stay away from her. Ms. Tanner hasn’t cut her nails. They’re very sharp.”

“Mm.” Luca knew he was worried that she would be attacked by Allison.

The lawyer guided them through the visitation procedures. They then sat in chairs and waited for Allison.

Allison was brought out by prison guards.

Luca looked at Allison under the bright lights. The condition of her face was horrible. He could not tell if it had worsened.

Allison looked at the three of them with a grim expression. “Why did you bring them here? I want a plastic surgeon. I want the best plastic surgeon in the world to give me a face-to-face consultation!”

The plastic surgeon they found before said that her condition was irreversible but she refused to believe it.

“Ms. Tanner, don’t be angry. How about we let the doctor do a check-up first, okay?” The lawyer was frightened when he saw Allison stare at him so fiercely.

‘Why is she yelling at me when her son is right in front of her?!’

Allison’s gaze swept past Johann and Luca before finally landing on Luke.

“You earn so much in a year but hired such useless people to help with my face! Tell it to me straight. Do you just want me to die? I shouldn’t have taken you back. I should’ve left you there and made you an orphan for the rest of your life! You’re a good-for-nothing. You’ll never amount to anything!”
