"Hmph, you sure as heck want me to be asleep, don't you? As long as I'm out cold, no one will be around to settle scores with you, right?"

Old Master Mallory lifted his gaze ever so slightly, peering at her face adorned with an ingratiating smile. His gaze took on a subtle chill.

"Father, what in the world are you talking about? I can't make heads or tails of it." Karen's smiling face froze for a moment. Even though she claimed not to understand, deep down, she knew what he was talking about.

"Show her the documents." Old Master Mallory ignored Karen's act of ignorance and spoke to Mr. Bennet.

Karen looked at Mr. Bennet, realizing for the first time that he was holding a stack of documents.

Mr. Bennet handed the documents to Karen. "Madam, please take a look."

Karen furrowed her brows and opened the documents. Just by reading the beginning, she knew what kind of information it contained.

These were the documents Luke sent to Old Master Mallory. It was the evidence of Karen, along with Margaret and Myra, leaking the rumored relationship between Luke and Luca to the press.

Karen's hands trembled slightly. Before she saw these documents, she thought the conspiracy she had orchestrated was flawless. However, Luke had gathered so much evidence. Not only that, he had given it all to Old Master Mallory...

Karen felt a surge of anger with nowhere to vent.

She had no evidence to prove what Luke had done. On the flip side, she believed she had been discreet about what she did.

Even the locations she picked for discussions were places she was familiar with, like that coffee shop. It seemed impossible for anyone to eavesdrop on those conversations.

However, Luke's people still managed to dig up the dirt.

She had spent a fortune on this too. Why was the person she hired so different from Luke's men?
