”The people you hired couldn’t find anything either…” said Myra. She was not aware that Old Master Mallory had given Karen a deadline, but she knew that the longer this dragged on, the more damage it would cause her.
Karen clenched her fists as she never expected the people she hired to be so useless.
He was just a person Luke kept in hiding, but even after a whole day of searching, they could not find a single trace of him!
“Mrs. Mallory, isn’t your eldest son very powerful?” Margaret suddenly uttered. She was not aware of how bad Karen’s relationship with her son had gotten. She just remembered that Percy’s power was neck and neck with Luke.
Not to mention, Percy and Luke were good friends, so there might be some room for maneuver if he helped out.
Karen’s expression sank at the mention of Percy.
She never told them about Percy as she did not want to air her dirty laundry in public.
However, they should know that they had a falling out because of his marriage with Nina.
Myra did not know the reason behind Karen’s expression, so she echoed Margaret and said, “That’s right, Madam Mallory. Your son is as capable as Lu—never mind. You don’t have to beg him. Just talk to your son and have him send someone to look for that man. He might be able to find that douchebag in no time!”
“He won’t help me,” said Karen. If Percy would have helped her, Luke would not have published this report.
She was certain that Luke had consulted Percy before publishing the report. Otherwise, how could she be the only one who was affected by the report while Percy was left scatheless?
“But you’re his mother. Did you two have a falling out?” Margaret was suddenly reminded of the Mallory family’s past episodes, and she put her hands to her mouth when she realized she had touched a sore spot.
Percy was not on good terms with the rest of the Mallory family.
“I know, but you’re his mother. If this issue isn’t resolved, it will affect him badly. Why don’t you go talk to him?”
“She’s right. There’s no such thing as enmity between mother and son…” Myra advised. If even the people Karen hired could not find the man, she doubted that the people they hired would be any better.
Their husbands' powers were just for show. Where would they find people that were at their disposal?
Margaret's and Myra’s words changed Karen’s mind.
After paying the bill, she rushed to Mallory Corporation.
When she arrived downstairs, the receptionist dared not stop her. Instead, she immediately notified Percy’s assistant when she saw her enter the elevator, “Madam Mallory just entered the company and is taking the elevator upstairs right now. We couldn’t stop her, so please inform Mr. Mallory.”
“Mr. Mallory is in a meeting right now, and his assistant isn’t here either. This is Ms. Tucker. You can leave it to me.” Ms. Tucker immediately walked out of the office upon hearing the news.
Percy was in a confidential meeting with the top executives of the company, so she was not qualified to sit in on this meeting as the secretary.
After a while, the elevator door opened up slowly.
Ms. Tucker took a good look at the person coming her way and went up to her with a smile. “Good afternoon, Madam Mallory.”
“I want to see the CEO,” Karen said rudely. Although she did not want to give the position to Percy, she had no choice but to address him as such now that he was the CEO of Mallory Corporation.
“Mr. Mallory is in a meeting with the executives. Why don’t you wait in the reception room for a while? The meeting will end in about ten minutes.” Ms. Tucker recalled Percy’s schedule. If the meeting went well, it would be over in ten minutes.
Karen stared coldly at her.
She wanted to burst into the conference room, but she held herself back.
Now that Mallory Corporation belonged to Percy, doing so would result in Percy losing face.
Karen was still sensible enough to know that she could not act impulsively when she was here to ask Percy for a favor.
“I’m not going to the reception room.”
After hearing Karen say so, Ms. Tucker’s heart skipped a beat. Could she be thinking of bursting into the conference room?
