Old Master Mallory heard that Old Master Crawford had long kicked out another daughter-in-law. Now, he was the only one in the big Crawford Manor, but he did not feel lonely. Instead, he was enjoying his time.
Old Master Mallory thought that maybe if Karen moved out too, he could be at peace without her bothering him. Hence, he decided to take this opportunity to ask Karen to move out.
His idea of living together as a big family had undergone a change over time due to the constant whirlwind of affairs within the family.
Karen tightly pursed her lips as she watched Old Master Mallory leave from behind. Even when Mr. Bennet returned, she still stood there with a defiant look.
Mr. Bennet sighed and said, "Madam, you should rest early."
"How can I rest?" Karen glared at him, thinking about the humiliation she endured at Crawford Manor and the incident with Nina.
Even though she slapped that woman’s face, she felt embarrassed to be escorted out of the neighborhood by the security team. She was even blacklisted.
Upon returning home, she got scolded by Old Master Mallory. He was even making her apologize to the Crawford family tomorrow and move out immediately.
Karen wanted to vent her anger on Mr. Bennet, but considering he was close to Old Master Mallory, it would be like venting on the old master himself. She dared not to do so...
It was not that she did not have the guts, but Pierre’s current situation required Old Master Mallory’s involvement. Offending the old master would not only harm her but also bring misfortune to Pierre.
"Madam, given the circumstances, you can only follow Old Master Mallory’s arrangements. The villa he assigned for you on Blossom Avenue is ready with the necessary items. You only have to pack some clothes, jewelry, and cosmetics.
"If you find it troublesome, the maid will help you tomorrow," said Mr. Bennet. He understood that Karen was angry, but he was helpless about it.
This matter made Old Master Mallory even angrier, as he had lost face in front of his old friends.
Ever since Pierre provoked Luke, Old Master Mallory had only been losing face in front of Old Master Crawford. Despite the cheerful banter among old friends, there was still a sense of rivalry.
Old Master Mallory had never managed to regain his dignity, and Karen had even repeatedly tarnished his reputation.
Therefore, Mr. Bennet could understand the old master’s anger and could not speak up for Karen.
"Hmph, Blossom Avenue? Looks like Old Master Mallory can't wait for me to get as far away as possible!" Karen narrowed her eyes menacingly.
The villa on Blossom Avenue was not bad, but it was far from Mallory Manor.
Even though both were in A City, driving from Mallory Manor to the villa on Blossom Avenue would take at least 40 minutes. Karen knew well what those 40 minutes meant.
If it were not for the fear of gossip, Old Master Mallory might have arranged for her to stay on the outskirts.
"Please don't misunderstand, Madam. The villa on Blossom Avenue is newly renovated, and the style is to your liking. He thought you'd be happier living there. That’s why he made this arrangement," Mr. Bennet spoke up for the old master.
Karen refused to believe what he said. She let out a cold snort and replied, "Summon my maid."
At this time, the maid had already finished work for the day, but for the convenience of taking care of the house, both the maid and the butler stayed here.
As Mr. Bennet watched Karen go upstairs, he shook his head helplessly. She was quite a handful...
"Yes, Madam." Even though he thought she was troublesome, Mr. Bennet could not openly criticize her actions.
Even in front of Old Master Mallory, he had to be cautious when serving him.
