Chapter 2706 Locked Up
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. Behurried into the house. "Old Master Mallory, has Madam cback 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 | don't think it's a good idea to treat her that way..." Mr. Beweighed 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. |
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 intewas legal.
However, she becmore 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.
She was completely different from the elegant woman she used to be.
Mr. Beimmediately nodded and went along with him. Suddenly, he recalled what Old Master Crawford said.
Then, Mr. Besaid, "Old Master Mallory, Madam has been mentally and emotionally unstable these days. |
think her behavior is beyond the range of the side effects of her medication. Should we hire a psychotherapist
for her?"
"She does look ill. But do you have any particular psychotherapist in mind?" Old Master Mallory thought that
there was no way Karen could meet anyone if her illness deteriorated.
Karen was still a normal person before the new year. She beclike after going into a state of shock two to
three times.
Old Master Mallory had no idea what Karen had done to deserve this.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I don't know any psychotherapists. But | heard that Master Luke's wife was
traumatized after being kidnapped. She was mentally ill. They hired a
psychotherapist to treat her, and she improved progressively. She even left A City to further her studies abroad
now," said Mr. Bennet.
Even though he was the butler of the Mallory family, he was Old Master Mallory's assistant too. Hence, he knew a
lot of matters other than the ones in the family.
"Then hire the psychotherapist who treated her. If the psychotherapist isn't in A City now, offer a high price to
get her back to the country." Old Master Mallory would not allow Karen's sickness to get serious. Thus, he
planned to look for a professional to treat her.
"Yes, sir. That won't be a problem. | heard that money is just loose change for her. We might need Master Luke's
help to invite her to cover," said Mr. Bein a low voice.
"Why?" Old Master Mallory could not understand. It was just a psychotherapist. It was not like the Mallory family
could not afford to pay for the therapy services. Why did they have to ask for Luke's help?
"Rumor has it that the psychotherapist has a crush on Master Luke. That's why we might not be able to invite her
even if we offer her a high price. But she'll certainly cif we invite her using Luke's name," explained Mr.
Bennet. They had to inform Luke to invite the psychotherapist, and they would owe him a favor. Mr. Behad
to ask for Old Master Mallory's opinion before doing that.
"Luke really has plenty of admirers. I'll leave it to you. Get it done, the sooner the better." After Old Master
Mallory said that, he reminded Mr. Bennet, "Oh yes, bringall the surveillance footage from tonight."
"Yes, Old Master Mallory. Our men have already divided the work. They're waiting for the shops to open at night
to get the surveillance footage from the owners." Mr. Behesitated for a few seconds after that. He did not
tell the old master that Percy was also looking into Pierre's case.
Not only was Old Master Mallory annoyed with Pierre, but he was also mad at Percy.
Even though Percy was working for the Mallory family, Old Master Mallory was still mad at him. He would not
appreciate what he did. That was why Mr. Bedared not to tell him about it. He was afraid he would touch a
nerve.
"Do you have something to tell me?" Old Master Mallory's eyes were milky, but his gaze was sharp. He noticed
the hesitant look on Mr. Bennet's face.
“Nothing, sir. I'm off to arrange for tonight's matter if there's nothing else," Mr. Bereplied immediately.
"Go ahead. We have to find Pierre. Otherwise, we won't be able to live in peace." An ominous cloud hovered over
Old Master Mallory's face when he mentioned Pierre's name.
"Yes, sir,” replied Mr. Bennet.
After Mr. Beleft the living room, he sent a message to Pierre, telling him about the situation now. He also
told him that he did not tell Old Master Mallory that he was helping to look for Pierre.
Pierre replied: [It's for the best.] He did not want the old master to know about it either.
He had stayed with the old master since he was young. The older the old master was, the more stubborn he
became.
Percy insisted on choosing Nina as his bride. At the stime, he exposed what Pierre had done in the past and
continued to sit in the highest position of Mallory Corporation. What he did was enough to upset Old Master
Mallory for a long time. Hence, Percy did not intend to let the old master know that he was intervening in the
matter and joining the investigation.
Otherwise, his kindness would be misunderstood as ill intentions. The old master would think he was gloating at
their misfortune.
Percy sat on the sofa, reading Mr.

Otherwise, they would not be able to find where Pierre was by just depending on his mother. She would only
continue to disturb Luke.
Karen was already stubborn when she was a normal person.
Now that she was mentally unstable, she had beca lot more stubborn than before.
"Mr. Betexted you?" Nina brought a glass of milk as she walked toward him. She leaned against Percy's
chest as she sat down.

She also knew that Percy had decided to help.
"Yes. My mother has been locked up by Grandpa," replied Percy.
Nina was surprised. Even though she knew it was embarrassing when Karen went
to disturb Luke and Old Master Crawford, there was no need to go as far as locking her up.
