Jason, who was on the other end of the line, remained calm after listening to what she said. Then, he replied calmly, "Alright, Madam Mallory. I'll pass your message on to him. Just a moment, please."

After that, he hung up the call. He stood up and walked toward Luke's office. Then, he knocked on the door.

"Come in." Luke's voice came from inside the office.

Jason pushed the door open and immediately reported to him, "Boss, Madam Mallory is downstairs. She'd like to see you."

"Aunt Karen?" Luke put down his pen and turned to look at him.

"Yes, it's Mr. Mallory's mother. She told me that she has to see you. She'll go look for Old Master Crawford if you don't make time for her," said Jason. Everyone knew how tough Madam Mallory was.

However, it was strange that Madam Mallory came looking for Luke now.

Jason could not help but wonder if she came to ask for Luke's help to clean up Pierre's mess.

Still, Madam Mallory knew that Luke sided with Percy, and there was no way he would help Pierre.

"Let her in," replied Luke. He was not planning to let Madam Mallory disturb Old Master Mallory.

"Yes, Boss." Jason returned to his office and called the front desk.

After the receptionist confirmed it with him, she led Madam Mallory to the elevator. Then, she swiped the card and let her enter the elevator.

Madam Mallory was distraught as she looked at the numbers that gradually went up as the elevator rose. She pursed her lips and made up her mind that she must ask Luke to let Pierre go.

Even though this would cause a misunderstanding between the two families, she insisted on doing so.

Percy had been seduced by Nina and was crazy about her. There was no way she could accept Nina who was born into such a family. Therefore, she might not be able to mend her broken relationship with Percy.
