Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3051

Karen was secretly wondering whether she should redirect her subordinates to investigate the expenses incurred when the patient was hospitalized. This way, she could trace the funds directly and find out more about the person who got into a conflict with the patient.

There was a slight flutter in her thoughts.

Susan remained composed, sipping her coffee and observing Karen's changing expressions.

She was aware of Pierre's broken leg and knew that Karen's thoughts were now leaning toward him. As an heir destined to end up with a limp, Pierre held little significance. It explained why Karen was so anxious to find someone to treat him.

"Madam Mallory?" Susan softly reminded her when she noticed Karen was deep in thought. "What's on your mind?"

"Nothing. I was thinking about what you said earlier. Madam Crawford, thank you for reminding me," replied Karen. Even though Susan could not offer much help in this matter, she did play a certain role.

"Don’t mention it. Even if I hadn't mentioned it, you would've figured it out yourself," said Susan. Something crossed her mind when she saw Karen in such a state.

It seemed that Karen was genuinely interested in Luca.

Otherwise, she would not have inquired about her.

If Luca had the ability to help Karen treat Pierre, her relationship with the Mallory family could become even closer in the future.

Susan felt uneasy at the thought of this. She thought Luca was just an ignorant woman relying on men to climb up the social ladder. What made her think that she could rely on the Crawford family and still seek support from the Mallory family?

However, Susan kept rational and stopped herself from spilling anything. She knew that once she said it out loud, it would mean acknowledging the relationship between Luke and Luca.

Susan suddenly felt magnanimous for going the extra mile to cover up for Luke.

Once Karen’s thoughts started to wander, she appeared to be preoccupied. She was no longer as engaged in the conversation.

Her mind was occupied with Pierre's situation, and she had no interest in gossiping with Susan about other matters.

Susan could see Karen was distracted but said nothing. She simply sipped her coffee and eventually told her that she had something to attend to and needed to go home.

Karen let out a sigh of relief. After settling the bill, she saw Susan out. Then, she quickly returned to her car and began making a phone call, instructing her subordinates to change their focus.

The driver, who had been waiting in the driver's seat, asked, "Madam, where to now?"

"Home," answered Karen. She had no other place to go at the moment, and her priority was to confirm if Luca had the capability she was rumored to possess.

If it was true, Karen would find a way to persuade her to treat Pierre even though they had disagreements in the past.

If Luca refused to help her, she was willing to go as far as kidnapping her to make her agree.

Pierre was her priority!

"Yes, Madam." The driver nodded. When he started the car engine, Karen remembered that Nina seemed to have a good relationship with Luca. She changed her mind about going home. "No. Take me to Percy’s villa," instructed Karen.

"Madam, I’m afraid we can’t enter the neighborhood now after what happened last time," reminded the driver.

"That's true..." Karen frowned. After what happened last time, it would be even more difficult to meet Nina.

"Besides, our sources report that she's no longer staying there. She’s staying in Luke's villa now. It might be even harder for you to meet her if you go there." The driver reminded Karen that they had been tracking Nina's whereabouts.

The reason was simple. It was to catch evidence of Nina betraying Percy.

Percy could not tolerate betrayal. If he found out that Nina had betrayed him, he would never accept it, no matter how stubborn he was.

Karen furrowed her brows tightly, realizing that amidst her recent thoughts about Pierre, she had forgotten about this matter.

"Ah, forget it. Let's go home. I don't believe this stubborn girl can hide in Luke's place forever," said Karen.

The driver remained silent. He initially wanted to say that Nina would move back when Percy came back from his business trip.

Hence, it was nearly impossible for her to cause Nina trouble.

"Madam, I'll start driving. Please fasten your seatbelt," reminded the driver. Then, he drove in the direction of the villa.
