While it might sound like kids' talk, it was still a message conveyed by the parents to the
kids.
Whenever Myra heard Charlie come home from school, bawling about it, her sense of
unease continued to grow in her heart.
She thought about apologizing to the Crawford family, but they ignored her.
The company's situation was getting worse. Her resentment toward Luca and the Crawford
family grew stronger too.
Myra cautiously asked, "You bear a grudge against Luca and Luke. Why come to me? Why
don't you go seek revenge, then?"
Myra would not mind if someone stirred up trouble for Luke and Luca as it might give her a
sense of relief.
"Why haven't you sought revenge if you hate them too?" Karen, who was on the other end
of the line, chuckled. She had no intention of being in the limelight.
Old Master Mallory had made it clear to her more than once that the Mallory family could
not afford to get into any more trouble right now. They had to deal with the mess caused
by Pierre first.
That was why Karen and Pierre could not emerge into the fray after they decided on taking
revenge on Luke and Luca.
"Wouldn't I have taken action if I had the power to do so? Who are you anyway? Hiding
behind the scenes and not doing anything, what's the point of making this call?" Myra was
not silly enough to let herself get riled up and went to seek revenge on Luca.
If she offended Luca again, her marriage and wealth would be completely ruined!
"You don't need to know who I am. Just work together with me. You'll find out who I am
sooner or later." Karen sneered coldly as she looked at Luca in the photo, along with a hint
of hatred.
Her laughter traveled through the phone into Myra's ears. A shiver ran down her spine.
Could this be her chance?
There was no way Myra could take revenge on Luke and Luca alone. However, what if
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthere was someone else involved?
The Hudson family could not challenge T Corporation on their own, but what if there was
another party?
Myra, an unreasonable woman as she was, knew that strength lay in numbers. If a few
more people teamed up against Luke and Luca, the plan was more likely to succeed.
"Can you guarantee a successful revenge?" Myra's interest was piqued after she
understood the profound truth behind this.
"There's no guarantee, but I have more resources at my disposal than you do. For
instance, I already have a lot of evidence of Luke having an affair." Karen chuckled and
flipped through some documents.
The sound of pages turning was so loud that Myra realized that the evidence of Luke
having an affair might be in Karen's hands...
Mrya's mind raced. In her efforts to apologize to the Crawford family, she had investigated
Luke's family thoroughly.
Luke had a father-in-law who was a provincial governor. The road ahead for him would not
be easy if his father-in-law knew he was having an affair.
Even though Luke was a wealthy businessman, he would not want to clash with a political
figure. It would spell trouble for him.
"If the evidence you have is substantial enough, I agree to work together with you. Since
you've come to me, you should know that my company isn't in the best shape now. So, I
can cooperate, but there are certain things I can't handle personally." Myra kept her guard
up.
Myra had considered exposing Luke and Luca's relationship to the media to seek revenge.
However, Brigham stopped her.
He said the company could not afford to displease T Corporation anymore.
Hence, Myra was concerned that she might be used as a pawn in this game. That was why
she laid all her cards on the table from the start.
"You won't be directly involved in this?" Karen's brows furrowed in displeasure. Then, she
asked, "You can work behind the scenes, but what can you do to help me?"
Myra fell silent. What could she do?
As Karen listened to the silence coming from the other end of the line, Karen sneered
coldly and said, "It's just about offending Luke. You've already done that. What are you
afraid of? I'll provide the evidence, and you'll create the buzz. Let's work together. Isn't
that a good idea?"
As Myra listened to Karen's tone, she had a hunch that the person might hold considerable
influence within society. Perhaps she was from a better background than the Hudson
family.
"If I dared to offend Luke, I would've done it long ago. I wouldn't have waited until today.
My background isn't as good as the Crawford family, so I can't act recklessly. You must
have a similar background to the Crawford family. I don't think it's a good idea for me to
take the lead while you stay behind, right?" replied Myra.
Karen did not expect Myra to be so timid.
A timid person like her would actually offend Luca for her child's sake?
It seemed like she had misjudged Myra's potential. Karen gave a cold-hearted laugh and
said, "You don't dare to displease Luke because of your husband's company. Now, your
husband's company is practically on life support. It doesn't matter whether you'll upset
Luke or not anymore. Your husband's company might not even survive until next year.
Perhaps there's still hope for your husband's company if you work together with me, no?"
Myra's heart skipped a beat. She reckoned that the person on the other end of the line
had an extraordinary identity.
Perhaps it was really time to stand up against Luke. The enemy of an enemy was a friend,
after all!
"I'm willing to work together with you if you can help my husband's company," said Myra.
As long as there was a positive change in Brigham's company's situation, what harm could
it do to be in the spotlight again? After all, they were already at rock bottom. Perhaps this
person could help them turn things around.
"Alright, don't worry. I won't let you face Luke and Luca alone," Karen replied with a
sinister laugh.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMyra, who was on the other end of the line, heard the eerie laughter, and it sent a hair-
raising shiver down her spine.
Could she really trust this person? Her thoughts were tinged with doubt and a touch of
unease.
The laugh sounded almost terrifying. It was like the person on the other side was more of
a monster than a human.
"Are there others?" Myra asked cautiously.
"Margaret Sutton. Do you know her?" asked Karen.
"Sounds familiar to me." Myra's social circle was limited. She had trouble remembering
people she never collaborated with.
"Look her up. Luke sent her to the police station, and she got detained for a few days just
because she offended Luca. Her husband's company was affected too. Tell me, if the two
of you team up against him and with me providing the information I have on hand, won't
things go bad for Luke?" Karen asked with a menacing tone.
"I'll look into it, but I think we should meet in person first since we're working together."
Myra remained vigilant. She did not know the person who called her. It seemed like the
person on the other end of the line was not planning to reveal her identity just yet.
"No problem. I'll arrange a time.” Karen hung up the call after that.
She looked at the call duration and could not help but yawn. Then, she dialed Margaret's
number.
Margaret's hatred for Luca stemmed from her resentment of the third party in her
marriage. Moreover, she had been sent to jail for a few days because of it. She was
displeased, indeed. Hence, the moment Karen proposed teaming up to bring down Luke
and Luca, she did not hesitate and agreed to join forces.
Karen let out a lazy yawn after ending the call.
She thought it would take some time to convince Margaret to work together with her in
taking down Luke and Luca.
However, she did not expect Margaret to agree so readily without hesitating over her own
identity like Myra.
"She's quick on the draw, but she's not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed. She can only
be used as a front-line soldier," Karen lazily remarked. If Margaret were a little smarter,
she would not have agreed so eagerly. She would have hesitated for a moment at the very
least. After all, this was not just about her.
