Karen narrowed her eyes. "So you're saying that I have to provide evidence?"

"Whatever crime it is, there must be proof, right? With just this recording, how am I supposed to question Luke? Besides, Luke is too busy for these little tricks. I believe he's innocent. This man might be intentionally framing him," said Old Master Mallory as he let out a yawn.

Being old, he had a habit of taking a nap. Being woken up like this made him feel very tired.

Karen's face turned pale. "Fine, just you wait. I'll go get the bank transaction records now. We'll settle this based on evidence!"

She refused to believe that even with the evidence laid out in front of him, Old Master Mallory would still side with Luke.

Karen left in a huff.

Old Master Mallory let out another yawn, and Mr. Griffin reminded him, "Sir, you should rest for a while."

Old Master Mallory thought it was a good idea. He got up with his cane, but just as he was about to head to the bedroom, he stopped to remind Mr. Griffin, "Oh, by the way, let Luke know about this."

He had temporarily dealt with the trouble, but Luke needed to be informed.

"Yes, I'll inform him shortly.” Mr. Griffin nodded.

"Alright. If she comes with those transaction records later, then we'll talk. I'm going to take a nap.” Even though Old Master Mallory said so, he did not really feel threatened by the so-called transaction records.

It would be strange for Luke to leave behind such evidence.

After Karen left Crawford Manor, she hurriedly returned to the villa where Silas was being held.

Later, she realized she might not need Silas to go to the bank for statements. As long as she got the transaction records, she could find out the account number and investigate at the bank.

She knew who the people around Luke were. Hence, once she identified the account holder, it would point to Luke orchestrating this.

Karen planned everything well. Then, she stood in front of Silas again.
