Old Master Crawford had already figured it out, but when Old Master Mallory stated his purpose, he still put on a surprised expression. "Apology? This is..."
Old Master Mallory knew he was intentionally exaggerating his expression, but it was the Mallory family's fault. No matter what expression Old Master Crawford made or what he said, Old Master Mallory was left with no choice.
He could either take the initiative to explain and offer an apology or simply turn around and leave.
Karen hoped for the latter, but Old Master Mallory knew that an apology was necessary. "Yes, Karen misunderstood Luke back then. She talked nonsense and shared some news with the media, which has caused a lot of trouble for Luke. Crawford, Karen is here to apologize to you today."
"Ah, Mallory, so you're talking about this..." Old Master Crawford shook his head and looked at Karen's expression. He knew that even though Old Master Mallory had brought the conversation to this point, Karen still refused to apologize.
"To be honest, what Karen did was wrong, but it didn't cause me much trouble on my end. The main issue is still on Luke's side. Since you're apologizing for this matter, it's better to apologize to Luke."
Old Master Crawford did not give Karen a chance either.
If she could not swallow her pride and apologize in front of her elder, he would not be kind to her. He would let Karen apologize to Luke, who was younger than him.
When Karen heard this and realized that she had to apologize to Luke, her expression became even more unpleasant.
Here, Old Master Crawford was the elder, and apologizing to her elders was normal. However, if it was flipped around with Luke Crawford, she would be the senior. A senior apologizing to her junior…
If word of this got out, how could she face the others?
Karen was unwilling to do so. Old Master Mallory did not want Karen to do something so embarrassing either. Hence, he smiled and said, "Crawford, you’re the head of the Crawford family. Karen still needs to apologize to you."
After that, he turned to look at Karen. There was a hint of anger in his eyes, and he dropped subtle hints in his words. "Why aren't you apologizing to Old Master Crawford?"
Karen was still reluctant to do so at this moment, but she dared not object. She immediately apologized, "I'm sorry, Old Master Crawford. I misunderstood things, and that's why I ended up making such a mess. I'm really sorry."
"Oh." Old Master Crawford pretended to shake his head in solemnity. He looked at Old Master Mallory and said, "Mallory, I really can't accept this apology on behalf of Luke. I heard that the scandal affected T Corporation's share price and caused fluctuations for a few days.
"If it weren't for investors' trust in T Corporation, the share price might have looked even worse. You don't know how hard Luke worked to stabilize the share price.…"
Old Master Mallory understood the meaning behind these words. Karen still needed to apologize to Luke.
"Yes, yes, Karen was wrong in this matter. How about this? I'll have her personally go to T Corporation and apologize to Luke.” Old Master Mallory knew that if this matter was not settled, the apology would be meaningless.
Karen suddenly looked up. How could he let her do something so embarrassing?! Apologize to Luke? Never!
Old Master Mallory was speaking while paying attention to Karen's situation.
He knew she was not in a good mental state. That was why he had to be more attentive. After all, someone in a bad mental state could not control their temper.
When he noticed that she was about to explode, Old Master Mallory stood up and said, "Crawford, Karen and I will find time to go to T Corporation and have a good talk with Luke. Sorry for bothering you today."
"No problem. It's the young people’s matter, after all. Mallory, it’d be better for us not to interfere too much." Old Master Crawford chuckled. His attitude was much more pleasant than the attitude he showed Karen a few days ago.
After all, with Old Master Mallory present, he should give some leeway. He intended to do just that.
"Yes, you're right. Well, Karen and I will take off, then. We shouldn’t bother you," said Old Master Mallory. The apology had been made, and he had no plans to stick around. It was to avoid getting any more sarcastic remarks from Old Master Crawford.
