Chapter 2700 Jumped Down His Throat
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.
"Cin." Luke's voice cfrom 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 toldthat she has to see you. She'll go look for Old Master Crawford if you
don't make tfor her," said Jason. Everyone knew how tough Madam Mallory was.
However, it was strange that Madam Mallory clooking for Luke now.
Jason could not help but wonder if she cto 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.
Pierre was the only one she could depend on when she grew older.
Madam Mallory thought that she was not doing anything wrong as she was doing
it for herself, the Mallory family, and their future.
The elevator door opened. Madam Mallory walked out of the elevator and saw Jason. "Taketo Luke."
"Yes, Madam Mallory. This way, please." Jason frowned. Madam Mallory sounded aggressive.
He knew she was not to be messed with.
Jason could not help but heave a sigh. She cwith ill intentions.

Luke would have to deal with her on his own.
Jason led Madam Mallory to Luke's office. He gently knocked on the door, telling Luke that Madam Mallory had
arrived. Then, he pushed the door open and said, "Madam Mallory, the boss is inside."
Madam Mallory walked into Luke's office with a cold expression on her face.
"Aunt Karen." Luke dropped everything and turned around, giving her a cold-eyed stare.
Madam Mallory sneered and sat right opposite him. "Luke, I'm one of the people who watched you grow up.
You're not a bad person. So, let go of Pierre and hand him over to me. If you do that, | won't get to the bottom of
this."
"Pierre?" Luke raised his brows. Did she chere to ask him to hand Pierre over to her?
Gale had only confirmed that Pierre was kidnapped 15 minutes ago.
However, Gale did not investigate who kidnapped him. Luke did not ask Gale to look into it either.
He had nothing to do with the person who kidnapped Pierre, after all.
Yet, Madam Mallory was asking him to hand Pierre over to her now.
"My men saw your subordinates wandering around house number 13 in District 15. Are you scoping out the
area? Or are you just inspecting the crscene? Anyway, | won't hold you accountable for this if you hand
Pierre over to me." Madam Mallory went straight to the point. She would do anything for Pierre. She would also
use an elder's dignified demeanor to pressure Luke.
"Pierre's not here." After Luke found out her intention, he continued to turn the pages of the work documents. His
voice was cold, and he could not be bothered to explain to her.
It was because once Madam Mallory suspected it was him, she would continue to think that he was the one who
did it. There was no way he could overcthe suspicion no matter how hard he tried to explain to the woman
in front of him.
"Your men went looking for Pierre a few days ago, and Pierre was kidnapped today. Your men showed up at the
scene after that happened. And you're saying that Pierre's not here? Luke, I've been through more than you can
ever imagine. Stop fooling me." Madam Mallory refused to believe him.
Luke knew she would not believe in him. He took out his phone and called 110, then he said, “Aunt Karen, you've
got a point there, but you can't just suspect me. | won't repeat what I'm going to say again."
He paused for a moment. If the woman in front of him was not Percy's biological mother, he would not have been
bothered to show any respect to her.
"My men went to look for Pierre to find out where he bought my company's bidding document at that time."
Before Luke could finish talking, Madam Mallory interrupted him, "Nonsense. The police had made it very clear.
Pierre has nothing to do with it."
Luke immediately leaned back on his chair with his hands resting on the armrests. There was an unbothered look
on his face. Then, he answered with a question of his own, "Do you believe that?"
Madam Mallory was startled for a moment.
"Aunt Karen, you know very well

Madam Mallory would have known that if Pierre had anything to do with this. She immediately changed the topic
of the conversation. "You're admitting that you kidnapped Pierre because he stole your company's bidding
document!"
"| didn't say that,” replied Luke. If it were not for her being an elder, Luke would
not even be bothered to talk to her. Besides, she would make it a big deal and inform Old Master Crawford about
this if they did not get this straight.
Luke would have to deal with the problem if Old Master Crawford found out about this.
Luke added, "I only wanted to find out who sold the document to him. That's why | sent my men to coerce him
into giving the information.
"As for the reason why my subordinates showed up in front of that house, it's because | know your chauffeur

If she called the police, the police officers would arrest Pierre even if they found him.
Pierre hid in that shabby house to not get caught by the police. He could deal with the matter that way, and he
did not have to be sent to prison and suffer.
"Do you think I'll believe you even if you do this? Luke, kidnapping is illegal!" Madam Mallory refused to let him
get away with it.
"I know you don't. That's why I'll leave it to the police." Luke pressed the call button.
Madam Mallory leaped out of her
chair and warned him, "I'll find the
