Madam Mallory was not as nervous as Pierre upon hearing the news. "There'll always be someone willing to step up if you offer enough money."

"I don't have that much cash on hand now," Pierre confessed. He had already lost a lot of money to his business partners because of the closure of many industries. On top of that, he bought a bidding document from Abel and placed an order to assassinate Luke.

He did not have much money on his hands now.

If there was no one to help him, he would have to use the company's cash. However, at this stage, he did not need to do so.

Pierre knew that Madam Mallory would not let him stoop so low.

"Don't worry. Go look for someone and tell me how much you need." Madam Mallory said exactly what Pierre thought she would.

Madam Mallory's response was within Pierre's expectations.

"I'll find a scapegoat." Pierre nodded. Although the latest development was beyond what he expected, it was not impossible to solve with Madam Mallory's help.

On the other hand.

Luke got a call from Old Master Crawford and learned of the Mallory family's so-called workaround, which he had expected.

After all, Pierre would not learn his lesson just from this incident.

"I see. Thank you for making the trip anyway." Luke thanked him. Although Old Master Crawford was his grandfather, he was no longer involved in the company's affairs, so he should thank him for his effort.

"No trouble. It's just that Pierre's face is annoying. Luke, stay away from him." Old Master Crawford knew that Luke was not close to Pierre to begin with, but he could not help himself from reminding him.

"I know," Luke said. Old Master Crawford ended the call.

He looked up at the view outside the floor-to-ceiling window.

Luca was playing with the children outside. They looked happy engaged in snowball fights.

Early this morning, the kids woke up and stood in unison at the door of Luca's bedroom to wait for her to get up.
