That way, it would not be too loud even though one would hear Karen if they walked past the room.

Old Master Mallory sneered and said to the woman who was shouting in her bedroom, “Stay in there. I'll find Pierre."

Then, he returned to the living room.

That was when Mr. Bennet hurried into the house. "Old Master Mallory, has Madam come back yet?"

"I locked her up in her bedroom. No one's allowed to let her out before Pierre comes back," replied Old Master Mallory.

"Yes, sir. But I don't think it's a good idea to treat her that way..." Mr. Bennet weighed each word as he spoke.

He knew why Old Master Mallory locked Karen up. What she did today had disgraced the Mallory family.

Old Master Mallory, who had always cared about the Mallory family's reputation, was mad at her.

"What's so bad about it? There's a bed, a sofa, and a TV in her room. It's more luxurious than a 5-star hotel. I don't see anything wrong." Old Master Mallory glowered at him.

Karen had been behaving abnormally these days.

She had been making calls and going through documents all day and night, trying to prove that everything that Pierre had done that was exposed on the internet was legal.

However, she became more and more bad-tempered.

Almost every maid had been scolded by her for the past two days. Still, the most serious problem was that after she knew Pierre had been kidnapped, she was unable to remain calm, not even for a moment.
