With the way things turned out, there was no doubt that it was more difficult for them to look into the
case.
Hence, those men who were sent there could only watch the surveince footage provided by the
relevant department while they waited for nightfall. They could only ask for the rest of the surveince
footage when the shops were opened.
That was the only way to find out where Pierre had been taken to.
“No way! That''s too inefficient!" Madam Mallory shook her head and instructed Mr. Be, “Ask them
to check with the state secretary and find out who owns those businesses. We have to get the
surveince footage as soon as possible."
“Yes, Madam." Mr. Be had no choice but to follow her instructions.
Mr. Be picked up his phone and gave his orders. He received a message from his subordinates at
the same time.
He was startled for a moment when he saw the message. He pondered for a moment and decided to
inform Madam Mallory. "Madam, I''ve got some news for you. Our men reported that they saw Luke''s
men wandering near the house like they''re keeping watch."
"Luke''s men!" Madam Mallory immediately leaped to her feet. "It must be him who took Pierre away.
That''s why he sent his subordinates to take a look at the scene and find out what''s going on now."
“Madam, it''s hard to tell who actually took Master Pierre away," reminded Mr. Be. However, he
thought it would be better for him not to exin it to Madam Mallory when he saw how anxious she
was.
Luke would not have sent his men to be on a stakeout outside the building if he was behind this.
Luke would never make a move that would so easily expose him.
"It must be him. Who else could it be? He sent his men to question Pierre back then. Then, he
kidnapped Pierre and even sent his men back there to see what''s going on now. He doesn''t want to
make it a big deal. I''m going to see him and ask him to let Pierre go," said Madam Mallory as she
picked up the coat beside her and walked toward the door.
“Enough!" Old Master Mallory''s voice was full of majesty, and it stopped Madam Mallory from leaving.
“Father, I''m not doing anything wrong. Pierre''s life might be in danger now. I have to meet Luke and ask
him to let Pierre go." Madam Mallory clenched her teeth.
“Are you sure that he''s the one who did it?" Old Master Mallory''s eyes were zing with anger. He had
the same thought as Mr. Be.
If Luke was the one who kidnapped Pierre, there was no need for him to let his men wander around
and expose himself. Luke would have known better.
"He looked for Pierre and questioned him back then. That makes him a suspect. Besides, no one
knows about this yet. Why are his subordinates hanging around nearby if it wasn''t Luke who sent
someone to kidnap Pierre?" Madam Mallory blindly thought that Luke had something to do with this.
When Old Master Mallory saw how obsessed Karen was with the idea that Luke had something to do
with it, he questioned her, “Do you have to ruin the rtionship between the Mallory family and the
Crawford family today?”
Madam Mallory bit her lip. She did not expect Old Master Mallory to say that the situation would take a
turn for the worse.
However, there was no way she wouldpromise this time. Pierre would have to continue suffering if
she could not find out where he was now. “Father, it''s Luke who doesn''t care about the rtionship
between the Mallory family and the Crawford family. He kidnapped Pierre. You''re saying that I''m ruining
the rtionship between the families, but it''s not me who started it."
"Hmph. Of course, it didn''t start with you. It was your son who ruined it first!" Old Master Mallory
snapped.
Old Master Mallory had been mad at Pierre for the past few days. He had been recalling what he had
done to clean up Pierre''s mess in the past few years.
He initially thought that Pierre was the best of the best. However, he finally realized that Pierre was not
as good as Percy at this point.
It was just that he was unable to control Percy. That was why he chose Pierre instead.
Old Master Mallory was disappointed in Pierre now.
Madam Mallory was dumbfounded for a moment. She simply put on her coat and said something
harsh, "Father, Pierre is your grandson. He broke your heart and disappointed you after everything he
did. Even so, he''s still rted to you. How can you be so heartless? Why do you still care about the
rtionship between the two families? Why are you stopping me?
"Oh, I know you''re not short of grandchildren. Other than Percy and Pierre, you still have a few mixed-
race illegitimate grandchildren out there. You can give up on Percy and cast Pierre out of the family.
Then, you can take them home and kick me out of the Mallory family."
"Damn you!" Old Master Mallory did not expect her to say something like that.
Old Master Mallory''s son had an affair with another woman abroad and had a family there. He knew all
about it.
However, the old master did notpromise just because it was his son and grandchildren.
After all, he only acknowledged Percy and Pierre''s mother as his daughter-inw.
Hence, he let Percy and Pierre''s father stay abroad and made him busy by leaving the businesses
abroad that were not so important to him. It was to stop him and his illegitimate children froming
back home.
What Madam Mallory just said to him hit him where it hurt. It made him feel bitterly disappointed.
"Madam, Old Master Mallory has always seen you as his daughter-inw. How could you say
something like that?!" Mr. Be stood beside the old master with a surprised look on his face.
Madam Mallory''s eyes reddened as she said with determination, "I''m going to meet Luke today no
matter what it takes. And I''ll bring Pierre back here. Father, you can do whatever you want to punish
me, but please let me find Pierre. We''ll talk about thister."
She immediately left the living room after that.
"Old Master Mallory, what should we do?" asked Mr. Be.
Madam Mallory would question Luke aggressively when she met him.
The friendship between the Mallory family and the Crawford family might get worse.
"Let her go. She doesn''t even reflect on herself for spoiling Pierre. Now, she''s acting recklessly
because of that little brat. Let''s see if she''ll regret it when she realizes that she has made a big
mistake!" Old Master Mallory said in a loud voice. Madam Mallory, who had not gone far, could hear
what he said.
Madam Mallory convinced herself that what she was doing was right. She thought Old Master Mallory
wanted to teach Pierre a lesson this time, and that was why he refused to go.
Madam Mallory was determined to ask Luke to let Pierre go this time!
Madam Mallory drove to T Corporation right away.
After she parked the car, she immediately headed to the lobby on the first floor.

"Good morning, Madam. May I know who you''re looking for?" The receptionist in the lobby saw Madam
Mallory walking toward her and asked.
"I''m looking for Mr. Crawford. Is he in his office?" Madam Mallory asked directly.
"Did you make an appointment with him?" asked the receptionist.
"I don''t have to make an appointment to see him. Please tell Jason that I''m Percy Mallory''s mother."
Madam Mallory took off her sunsses and came on strong.
No matter how ignorant the receptionist was, she would realize who the person in front of her was
when she heard Pierre''s name. Thus, she immediately called Jason''s inte phone number.
"Mr. Doyle, we have a woman who ims to be Mr. Mallory''s mother looking for Mr. Crawford. She
didn''t make any appointment, though." Madam Mallory snatched the handset from the receptionist the
moment she was done talking.
Madam Mallory was usually polite, but she would do whatever she had to do to save Pierre.
"Jason, I''m Percy and Pierre''s mother. I don''t care whether Luke is avable or not now. I have to see
him. Tell him to meet me now if he doesn''t want things to turn ugly and Old Master Crawford to find out
about it."
