Chapter 2758 A Tool That Could Be Used
Old Master Crawford did not bother insisting on their stay. "Alright then. Off you go. | have trouble walking so I'm
afraid | can't send you off."
"It's no trouble. I'll cfor our gof chess when | have the time," said Old Master Bourne as he rose to his
feet.
Lonnie had no choice but to stand up and leave with Old Master Bourne, no matter his reluctance.
Mr. Griffin carried the chessboard and walked towards the old master. Upon noting Old Master Bourne and
Lonnie's absence, he was confused. "Where is Old Master Bourne and Mr. Jackman?"""
"Something cup. They left." explained Old Master Crawford as he sipped his tea. "Where are the kids?"
"They saw you greeting the guest so they went upstairs to read," replied Mr.
Griffin. He looked down at the chessboard in his hands and asked, "Shall | put the chessboard away?"
"No. Cand play a few games with me," said Old Master Crawford. He pointed at the sofa next to him,
insisting Mr. Griffin take a seat.
Mr. Griffin smiled kindly. He shook his head, "I can't beat you."
"I'm bored. It's just to kill stime," said Old Master Crawford nonchalantly as he narrowed his eyes.
"Alright." said Mr. Griffin before placing the chessboard on the coffee table and taking a seat to commence their
gof chess.
On the other hand.
After Old Master Bourne and Lonnie left the room, they went straight back to the car and instructed the
chauffeur to leave.
It wasn't until they left Crawford manor, only then did Lonnie say, "I should have brought something with me."
He prepared lots of gift for Old Master Bourne and Old Master Crawford. However, Old Master Bourne did not
accept them.
When he learned of Lonnie's intention to give Old Master Crawford sgifts, he immediately stopped him and
told him not to bring anything.
Old Master Bourne understood what Lonnie meant. He must have thought that the reason why Old Master
Crawford refused to help was because he did not bring any gifts.
Old Master Bourne reminded him, "Do you think there is anything the Crawford family lacks with their prestige
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtand wealth? They might not think that you're just being polite if you bring the gifts over to them. You could've
put them in a difficult situation. Why don't you keep the gifts for yourself to help that brain of your's?"
Lonnie's face turned red. He did not expect to be mocked by Old Master Bourne himself.
He had even picked sreally good gifts.
Although it was true that Old Master Crawford was not lacking anything, it was nevertheless a gesture of
goodwill. Definitely better than going in empty-handed.
Old Master Bourne added when he noticed Lonnie remained silent, "I'm telling the truth. It's common to bring a
gift when you're seeing your client. I've known him for so many years. | know whether or not it's right to be
bringing gifts. Don't doubt me."
Lonnie was feeling extremely frustrated and could only mumble in response, "Yes. You're right."
Though Old Master Bourne could not help him, he knew better than to turn against the Bourne family.
Old Master Bourne decided to offer sadvice when he saw the forlorn expression on Lonnie's face. "You don't
have to work with T Corporation. There are many architectural design companies in the world that are more well-
known than T Corporation. Perhaps you should talk to the client and see if they're willing to understand your
situation.”
Lonnie tried, but the client insisted on using T Corporation's design.
There was no way he could commission another company to create a design and copy T Corporation's stamp to
stamp on the design drawings to pass it off, right? He would be in big trouble if he got caught.
That was why he had turned to Old Master Bourne for help.
Unfortunately, Old Master Bourne was not able to help him...
"| didn't expect Old Master Crawford to deny you when you guys are so close."
Old Master Bourne narrowed his eyes with a frown.
It was a minor issue for Old Master Crawford. It would only take a few days to design a blueprint for a company
with high work efficiency like T Corporation.
It was unlikely that they had no tfor this.
After all, Old Master Crawford ignoring Old Master Bourne's request was an act of bruising his pride.
"It's all your wife's fault," blamed Old Master Bourne. "The Crawford family wasn't even against the idea of Luke
being together with that woman. But Margaret hurt her. Of course, the Crawford family wouldn't help you. | took
you there today just to give it a try. | wasn't confident about it."
Lonnie lowered his head, secretly blaming Margaret for what she did. He also believed that it was her fault that
he did not get to work together with T Corporation.
Old Master Bourne then lowered his voice, "Still, | didn't expect him to turndown so decisively. Is he treating
Lonnie looked up and saw how furious Old Master Bourne was. He immediately chose to add fuel to the fire. "I
think Old Master Crawford didn't show you any respect. He could have just pretended to agree, and then he
could have cup with an excuse just to get by. This would have not embarrassed you. But | didn't expect him
to reject you so firmly."
"Hmph. He's just lucky that he has a talented grandson. He's so full of himself. How could he refuse to help even
though we have been friends for years? The Crawford family has been living in peace for too long. He must have
thought that the Crawford family is at the top of the business world in A City!" Old Master Bourne's face
contorted into an ugly sneer.
Although he knew that Lonnie was deliberately stirring up trouble, what he said made sense too.
Old Master Bourne held a grudge against Old Master Crawford. After all, he did not show any respect to him in
front of the younger generation!
"Well, there's always someone better. Old Master Bourne, do you want to teach the Crawford family a lesson?"
asked Lonnie. Although he blamed Margaret for what she did, he nevertheless resented the Crawford family for
contributing to the potential failure of his project.
Luke Crawford and Old Master Crawford!
"Mind your own business." Old Master Bourne did not bother to dignify Lonnie's taunt with a reply.
He was not silly. If he wanted to put a

Old Master Bourne had never trusted outsiders.
"Alright. Alright..." Lonnie saw the ominous cloud hovering over his face. He dared not say anything else.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOld Master Bourne looked outside the car window. His mind was replaying the scene of how Old Master Crawford
had rejected him.
Suddenly, the image of him running into Luca at the garden flashed before his eyes.
Luke went so far as to report to the police and make a big deal out of this for her sake.
Perhaps, this woman was a tool that could be used.
After Lonnie got out of the car, Old Master Bourne called his assistant.
"I'd like to know the background of the woman that Luke is keeping," said Old Master Bourne.

"Okay, Old Master Bourne. When do you need it?" The assistant asked on the other end of the line.
"Before you get off work this afternoon. | want to see the papers in my office." Old Master Bourne hung up the
call after that.
