Some Things Could Not Be Ignored


    The butler shook his head as the thought of Karen''s expression gave him a bad feeling.


    Upstairs, Karen picked up the phone and dialed the number of a private investigator. After a while, he


    picked up.


    “Madam Mallory." The private investigator''s voice could be heard from the other end of the phone.


    Karen wanted to get straight to the point, so she asked, "Have you found Luca''s other lover?"


    When Myra mentioned that Luca had another man, she asked a private investigator to look into it.


    Although it had not even been two days, she could not help asking because of her anger.


    She could not wait any longer. She had to act immediately and cause trouble for Luke. That way, he


    would not bother Pierre anymore.


    The private investigator was taken aback and said resignedly, "I''ve been following Luca for the past two


    days, but there''s nothing unusual about her whereabouts. I haven''t discovered anything new."


    Luca''s schedule for the past two days basically consisted of hermute to and from work, going to


    the hospital, and then going home again.


    Plus, she returned to the neighborhood where Luke''s mansion was.


    Even if Luca had another man, she would not be foolish enough to live with him in the same


    neighborhood as Luke, so he did not bother trying to get inside the neighborhood. Instead, he lurked


    outside of the neighborhood until early morning before leaving.


    That was all. He did not find anything new.


    If Karen had not been so sure that Luca had another man, the private investigator would have


    suspected that the information was false.


    However, since someone was paying him to work, no matter if it was true or false, he still had to follow


    and report everything he saw to Karen.


    "And you didn''t ck off?" Karen asked, unconvinced that Luca could endure not seeing the other man


    for two days.


    She believed Myra.


    "I really didn''t. If you don''t believe me, I can take photos and videos every day and send them to you.


    Luca''s schedule is the same every day, and only her clothes are different. My videos are proof," the


    private investigator quickly exined. After epting Karen''s money, he dared not ck off. Besides, if


    he offended her, he may no longer be able to stay in A City.


    "Madam Mallory, I''ve epted your payment, so I''ll definitely take care of everything for you." Karen


    squinted her eyes and looked out the dark window as she thought to herself. There was no way the


    private investigator would trick her.


    Luca was too sly!


    However, she could understand why. If a man like Luke found out that he had been cheated on, Luca


    would be finished.


    Luca must be very cautious, so it was only normal for the private investigator to not notice anything for


    now.


    Karen clicked her tongue irritably. “Fine. Continue following her. You must find that man for me."


    After hanging up, Karen created a new group chat and added Myra and Margaret.


    She tapped on the group video call button.


    After a while, Myra and Margaret answered the call.


    "Mrs. Mallory, did the private investigator find something?" Myra looked excited as she believed what


    she saw. As long as the private investigator kept an eye on Luca, he''d definitely be able to find


    evidence that she was unfaithful.


    "No, that bitch has been careful and sly, but I''ve decided to tell the reporters the news first and let them


    report it." Karen''s face looked sullen. This news waspletely different from the expectations of the


    other two, who were excited thinking Karen had good news to share.


    Myra frowned. "You want to tell the reporters now? I thought..."


    Karen interrupted, "I can''t wait any longer. It must be in the headlines tomorrow. That''s the only way


    Pierre can be saved."


    Myra and Margaret did not say a thing. They had also read the news and found out that Pierre had


    been arrested.


    Karen noticed their silence and said, "It may be my son now, but it won''t be long before it''s your turn.


    The Hudson family''s business is going downhill, and you''ll have to go to court soon. Although the party


    suing you won''t be able to fine you much, everyone knows that you''ve offended the Crawford family.


    The Hudson family''s situation is only getting worse, and you."


    She paused and pointed at Margaret before saying, "Jackman Corporation isn''t doing well now either,


    right? Your husband''s project is losing money. If Luke goes down, then T Corporation goes down.


    Perhaps they''ll have anotherpany produce the blueprints. Since everyone''s in a difficult position


    right now, why wait?"


    Karen''s words managed to persuade Myra and Margaret. "Fine, we''ll send the information to the


    reporters now."


    They were familiar with some reporters of the tabloid press, and gossip like this was perfect for these


    entertainment news reporters.


    Compared to some bigger newspapers, they were more inclined to report juicy gossip like these. Even


    if the parties involved issued awyer''s letter or warning letter, they would not be at a loss.


    Thus, they would not be afraid of offending the mighty Luke either.


    After hanging up, Karen smiled sinisterly.


    It seemed like Luke had not been involved in a scandal for a long time. The public had evenbeled


    him as dedicated and affectionate.


    The rage in Karen''s eyes became even more violent. She wanted revenge! She wanted everyone who


    hurt Pierre to fall beyond redemption.


    No one else in the Mallory family knew what Karen did, and neither did the people involved—Luke and


    Luca.


    The next day, Luca was woken up by the sound of her phone''s vibrations.


    She frowned as she opened her eyes slowly. After adjusting her eyes to the light in the room, she


    realized that a phone was vibrating...


    Luca picked up her phone to see who had sent her so many messages early in the morning.


    After ncing at her phone, she noticed that there were no messages. Only then did she realize that it


    was Luke''s phone.


    Luke and her were busy intertwining themselves togetherst night, so they got upte.


    Instead of looking through Luke''s phone, she gently nudged him. "Luke.."


    Luke did not open his eyes. Instead, he put his arms around her and pulled her into an embrace. Her


    soft body pressed against his as he refused to open his eyes and end this sweet dream.


    "Your phone has rung many times." Luca blushed as she heard his strong heartbeat while pressed up


    against his chest.


    After saying that, the phone rang again on the bedside table.


    "Just ignore it." Luke''s voice was deep and hoarse.


    There were not any urgent matters at thepany recently, so it did not matter if he replied a few


    minuteste.


    Luca listened to the phone that was still vibrating and looked up at him. Overnight, stubble started to


    appear on his chin, which she could not resist touching. It felt prickly on her hands.


    Before she could withdraw her hands, Luke grabbed her hands and opened his eyes as he looked at


    her.


    "Get up. It seems like you have some urgent matters to tend to," said Luca while blushing as if she had


    done something bad and was caught by him.


    Luke rarely sighed, but he wanted to continue holding Luca.


    He opened his eyes. Some things could not be ignored.


    Luke let go of her hand and picked up the phone on the bedside table. A series of messages


    bombarded his lock screen.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    He frowned and opened the message from Jason first.
