Mr. Griffin, who happened to walk into the room, heard what Susan said.
“Madam, what's the matter?" Mr. Griffin pretended not to understand, but he knew very well that Susan usually
talked about Old Master Crawford favoring Luke over Louis.
Everyone thought Luke had everything because he was Old Master Crawford's favorite grandson.
However, Mr. Griffin, who had been serving the old master for years, knew that Louis was actually the one whom
the old master favored.
Louis was free-spirited and someone who could do whatever he wished.
That was what it meant by being favored by Old Master Crawford. He could enjoy his life, live freely, and do
whatever he wanted.
"Nothing." Susan adjusted the shawl over her shoulder. "What were Old Master Mallory and Old Master Crawford
talking about just now?"
"It seems like they were talking about Mr. Pierre," answered Mr. Griffin. Karen came here and caused trouble. The
news spread through Crawford Manor like wildfire, and everyone knew about it.
Even if Mr. Griffin did not say anything about it, Susan would still be able to figure out what happened if she asked
around.
"That's weird. Why did they come here to talk about Pierre?" Susan remembered the grimace on Old Master
Crawford's face when they mentioned Pierre's name earlier.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPierre stole Luke's bidding document, and he almost ruined T Corporation's tender.
Fortunately, the bidding document was designed by Luke to set the thief up.
Although Susan hated Luke, she would not give up the company's bonuses.
Hence, Susan was concerned about T Corporation's profits. That was why she remembered it.
"What exactly were they talking about?" asked Susan.
Old Master Crawford looked normal when she made her way down the stairs just now. Judging from past
experiences, the old master would not have been so calm. Hatred and disgust would have been all over the old
master's face when Pierre's name was mentioned.
Hence, Susan could not help but wonder what really happened.
"I heard that Mr. Pierre has been kidnapped. Madam Mallory thinks it's Master Luke who did it. That's why she came
looking for Old Master Crawford to ask for help," answered Mr. Griffin.
"Hahahaha." Susan howled with laughter shamelessly.
Mr. Griffin was confused looking at her. What was wrong with her?
“Madam, what's the matter?"
“Please don't... Haha, don't talk to me. Let me laugh." Susan held her head up as she laughed as though she heard
a funny joke.
Mr. Griffin remained rooted to the spot awkwardly. What was so funny about it when it was Karen who
misunderstood the whole thing?
It took a while before Susan stopped laughing. Only then did she say, “Karen thinks Luke kidnapped her son,
Pierre?"
Mr. Griffin nodded and replied, “Yes."
“And she came here to ask Father to convince Luke to let Pierre go?" Susan continued.
“Yes, Madam." Mr. Griffin nodded again.
"No way. This is hilarious. Did Karen lose her mind?" Susan covered her mouth as she laughed, thinking that Karen
would become a laughing stock if she told the wives of rich men whom she often had high tea with.
Mr. Griffin cleared his throat.
“Then? How did it go?" asked Susan. She knew Luke had nothing to do with this without having to ask Mr. Griffin
about it.
“Madam Mallory was brought away by Mr. Bennet," replied Mr. Griffin. “I heard that she took some pills, which
caused her to be emotionally unstable. She's worried to death about Pierre being kidnapped.
That's why she has been looking for him everywhere."
"What kind of medication can cause someone to be emotionally unstable? How could she suspect Luke? Is she out
of her mind? Karen must be mentally ill. She has to be cured. Ah, I can't. I'm gonna laugh my lungs out." Susan
stood up happily. Her sharp gaze and the unhappy look on her face were gone after she found out that Karen had
done such a silly thing.
Previously, Karen often flaunted herself in front of her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven though their husbands had an affair, the way their father-in-laws treated them was worlds apart.
Old Master Mallory thought highly of Karen. He even went as far as to let his worthless son live abroad and not
come back to protect Karen's status and keep her reputation.
However, after Old Master Crawford allowed Allison to join the family. All Susan did was take care of Thea and
argue with Allison. It was just so she could inherit more of the Crawford family's wealth in the future.
Karen had already lost Pierre.
Now, Pierre was kidnapped after getting himself into such big trouble.
Karen was behaving like a crazy woman, suspecting everyone and looking for help.
She was useless.
Susan secretly rejoiced and mumbled to herself, 'Look how the tables have turned.'
On the other hand.
Mallory Manor.
Karen hurried back to the house and saw Old Master Mallory sitting on the sofa in the living room. She did not
apologize or greet him. “Did you discover something new?"
Old Master Mallory stared at his phone screen, ignoring her.
Karen raised her voice and asked, "Mr. Bennet told me that you discovered something new. What did you find?
Where is it? Show me!"
