Chapter 2703 Side Effect Of The Drug
"Yes," said Mr. Bewhile nodding his head in fear that Karen would not believe him.
"I must go back and have a look. There must be more evidence to prove that Pierre was abducted by him," Karen
muttered before leaving right away.
Mr. Bewas left speechless.
Mrs. Mallory completely forgot about her basic manners because of Pierre.
She even said those things in front of Old Master Crawford and left immediately without even saying goodbye to
him.
Mr. Bebowed to Old Master Crawford. "I'm sorry you had to see that, Old Master Crawford."
"What has gotten into Madam Mallory?" Old Master Crawford asked. One moment Karen was weeping and
begging him for help, the next she calmly wiped her tears with a tissue.
It was like an improv show with someone acting out different emotions.
Old Master Crawford had seen a lot in his lifetime, but it was the first the thought that someone was
possessed.
"Master Pierre has been kidnapped, so Madam Mallory is in great shock. Mr. Crawford's men happened to pass by
the scene of the kidnapping, so Madam Mallory insists that it's Master Luke who kidnapped Master Pierre. Old
Master Crawford, you and | both know that Master Luke has nothing to do with this, but Madam Mallory doesn't
think so. That's why she cto see you and make noise," Mr. Bebriefly explained,
"I see, so who kidnapped Mr. Pierre, then?" Old Master Crawford could not contain his curiosity. Who wanted to
go against the Mallory family?
Did they think that the Mallory family did not already have enough on their plate for them to kidnap Pierre?
"We're not sure yet. The things | said just now were just to appease Madam Mallory. It's not a good idea to let her
go around harassing the Crawford family," Mr. Bereplied.
"That's right. She must be in great shock for her to beclike this. She's totally different from before." Old
Master Crawford's eyes may be cloudy, but he could still see people clearly.
He even thought that Karen might need to see a psychiatrist if she continued like this.
"Sigh, the shock from Master Pierre's kidnapping isn't the only reason Madam Mallory has beclike this. She's

Their family doctor had told them about the side effects of the drug when prescribing it, but they did not think
that Karen would need to take it often, so they agreed to use it for emergencies.
This drug had the best efficacy, after all.
"So, when one is sick, their physical state will affect their mental state too. Have Master Percy find a psychiatrist
for her when you're free," Old Master Crawford sighed.
Psychiatrists were not useless.
They might be of help to someone like Karen.
Mr. Benodded and bid farewell to him. "I won't disturb you any longer, Old Master Crawford. I'll go back
now."
"Go on." Old Master Crawford nodded and said to Mr. Griffin, "Please see our guest out."
"Yes, Old Master Crawford." Mr. Griffin nodded. He sent Mr. Beto the main entrance before going back in.
Old Master Crawford continued to brew tea on the couch.
Mr. Griffin cforward and took away the cup prepared for Karen earlier.
"Karen is a little crazy, don't you think?" asked Old Master Crawford.
Mr. Griffin stood aside and commented, "Mrs. Mallory is indeed not quite the sas before. | heard that ever
since Master Percy and Ms. Nina registered their marriage, Madam Mallory got so angry that she fell sick. But |
never heard of her taking any sort of drugs before."
"What do you mean she fell sick from anger? She must've had underlying health issues in the first place. It's her
fault for being so stubborn and having her mind occupied day and night. It's too much for her body to bear. No
wonder she's facing problems." Old Master Crawford saw through the situation.
"You're right," Mr. Griffin agreed. He stood there with Old Master Crawford while holding the used cup.
"Sit down and have a chat with me." Old Master Crawford pointed to the seat opposite him.
Mr. Griffin sat down.
"What's wrong with Nina? Karen's going mad after taking that medicine just because of her close-mindedness.
Good thing high blood pressure patients don't need to rely on medicine like that for a long time. Otherwise, she
would have a nervous breakdown," commented Old Master Crawford.
"You're right," Mr. Griffin responded as he poured a cup of tea for Old Master Crawford. "As of right now, what
worries Madam Mallory the most is not Master Percy and Ms. Nina's marriage but the situation Master Pierre is
in."
"Yeah..." Old Master Crawford looked at him and beckoned to him. “You just remindedof something. Come
and help me."
"Alright." Mr. Griffin leaned into his ear.
Susan saw them whispering in each other's ears while walking down the stairs, so she could not help but ask,
"Father, what are you two talking about? Why are you speaking so softly and so close to each other? Is there
something that | can't hear?"
After Old Master Crawford gave his order, he sat back up and looked at his daughter-in-law.
Although she was not as capable as Karen when it cto business, at least she was not as crazy as her.
As long as she was willing to accept the family's arrangements, he would be nicer to her in the future.
"If you know you're not supposed to listen, why ask?" said Old Master Crawford.
Susan was left speechless by his

It was the maid who went upstairs to inform her of Karen's arrival.
She deliberately dressed up to make herself look more glamorous before coming downstairs.

Old Master Crawford did not say a word as he calmly sipped his tea.
He was not interested in women's affairs.
After seeing his behavior, Susan asked Mr. Griffin, "Where's Madam Mallory? Did she leave so soon?"
"Yes, Madam Crawford. Madam Mallory has already left," Mr. Griffin replied respectfully before leaving with
Karen's cup in his hands.
Susan fidgeted with her earrings. "Why did she leave so soon?"
"Have you packed your things?" Old Master Crawford asked all of a sudden.
"Pack my things for what?" Susan did not understand what Old Master Crawford meant.
"To move," Old Master Crawford reminded her.
