Chapter 2880 The Hudson Family Was Dealt A Bad Hand!
Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle
Luca's figure disappeared at the entrance of the ICU, and a man emerged from around the corner.
He had just sent all the photos he took to Karen.
In Mallory Manor, Karen sat on the couch with one of her hands holding the freshly brewed floral
tea prepared by the maid. She held her phone with her other hand, swiping the screen as she
looked at the pictures.
As Karen looked at the photos sent by the private detective she hired, she recognized the man in
them as Johann.
While she observed the distance between Johann and Luca, Karen raised an eyebrow and quipped
with a hint of sarcasm, "She's quite a player."
The maid, who was steeping the tea, turned around and gave Karen a puzzled look. Then, she asked,
"Madam?"
"I wasn't talking about you," Karen explained impatiently, glancing at the photos again. She
muttered to herself about how Luca had intentionally brought herself closer to the man.
It was not jealousy. It was more like she thought that Luca was very shameless.
Karen placed the teacup on the table lazily and replied, "I don't want it anymore. Take it away."
The maid put down the tea-brewing tools. She nodded and replied, "Alright, Madam. It's time for
you to take your medicine.â
"I'm not sick. Why should I take medicine?" Karen furrowed her brows.
The maid let out a sigh and replied, "It's blood pressure medication. The doctor said you need to
take a pill in the morning and a pill in the evening to control your blood pressure.â
"I told you, I'm not sick!" Impatience flashed across Karen's eyes. She turned off the phone screen
and rose to her feet.
The maid immediately added, "Madam, the doctor said that if you don't take the blood pressure
medication and your blood pressure isn't well controlled, you might end up needing stronger short-
term medications with significant side effects.â
Karen usually needed to take blood pressure medication to stabilize her condition. The regular
medication had minor side effects, but it would not affect her mental state either.
The maid became anxious at the thought of the last few times when Karen was under the influence
of the side effects
A few maids had been scratched and injured by Karen.
Karen paused for a moment while she climbed the stairs, recalling the situation when her high
blood pressure would not come down...
If she did not take the blood pressure medicine in the long term, it would be difficult to bring her
blood pressure down once it rose. If she went crazy, Old Master Mallory might even have her
admitted to a mental hospital.
When Karen thought of Pierre, she knew she could not end up in a mental hospital!
She turned around, arrogantly instructing the maid to follow her, "Bring the medicine to my
bedroom.â
"Yes," the maid quickly left to get the medicine.
Karen returned to her bedroom and took a leather file bag out of the drawer. The documents in the
bag were all from Pierre's office.
These documents had nothing to do with the company's operations, so Pierre did not ask Oswald to
retrieve them in the first place.
She opened the files, which included information about Luca and some details about Luke.
A sinister smile appeared on Karen's face as she took out another set of documents.
She picked up her phone, ready to make a call.
Karen's call had not gone through yet when the maid entered the room. She carried a glass of water
and her pills. "Madam, here's your medicine.â
Karen put down her phone and picked up the small pill. After she swallowed it down with water, she
dismissed the maid and said, "I need to rest. Close the door when you leave.â
"Yes, Madam.â The maid quickly left the room when she saw Karen had taken her pill, closing the
door behind her.
Karen picked up her phone and dialed a number from the information.
The phone rang several times before it was answered. "Who's this?"
A woman's voice came from the other end of the line. Karen asked in a casual tone, "May I know if
this is Myra Chavez?"
"Who are you?" Myra glanced at the unfamiliar number on the phone screen when her name was
mentioned. She did not recognize it.
"Donât worry about who I am. I'd like to ask you if you have any grudges against Luca?" Karen did
not reveal her identity. She questioned Myra instead.
The private detective Karen hired was professional. They could dig up every detail about any recent
conflicts involving Luca.
Karen intended to use this information to set up obstacles in Luca's way. Simultaneously, she
wanted to set a trap for Luke with this woman, bringing him chaos.
Her ideas appeared to align with Pierre's, yet they were slightly different from his.
She did not believe this would bring Luke down, but revealing this information could still affect both
the Crawford family and Luke himself.
Even though Karen had not paid much attention to the Mallory family's affairs, she heard about the
government's plans of gearing up to put suburban land development up for bidding.
If the others found out that the seemingly devoted Luke was actually a two-faced person who had a
sick wife but was maintaining a relationship with another woman, Luke might not fall from grace
after this matter was disclosed to the public, but he would certainly be in trouble.
At least, Jack would not treat this adulterous son-in-law kindly.
What was the big deal if T Corporation was capable enough to participate in the bidding
competition?
Jack was not responsible for that kind of work, but those who were handling these intricate details
would still give Jack face. There was no way T Corporation, which was managed by Luke, would win
the bid.
Myra, who was on the other end of the line, found out that the caller was mysterious. She could not
help but curse before hanging up, "You're crazy."
Before Karen could react, she heard the busy tone coming from the other end of the line.
"Unbelievable!" She cursed and looked at Myra's information.
Myra had conflicts with Luca because of her child. It happened at the school.
After Luke found out that Myra bullied Luca, he instructed his lawyer to sue both Brigham and Myra,
and there was no intention of settling out of court.
The Hudson family's business was in trouble after they upset Luke. Many orders had been canceled
because of this lawsuit. The others were worried about provoking Luke by working together with the
Hudson family, which could affect their own business. Other companies had all found excuses to
end their partnerships.
Karen dialed Myraâs number again.
"Who is this?" Myra answered the call again. Her tone was still not good as she had just argued with
Brigham.
Since the company's business started having issues, Brigham's temper had been getting worse every
day. He kept blaming her for offending Luca and Luke.
Their relationship had been further strained through these repeated arguments.
Hence, her tone grew even more impatient when she received another call from an unknown
number.
"Myra, you don't need to know who I am. Just listen to me. I have a score to settle with Luke and
Luca." Karen's tone was disdainful. She knew that those who knew who she was dared not to speak
to her like how Myra did.
However, she did not want to reveal her identity too early.
After all, Myra was currently regretting her clash with Luca back then. What if Myra was worried
about retaliating against Luca and informed her about it after finding out her identity and
intentions?
Karen was not silly. She would not let Luca know her plans in advance.
She needed to catch them off guard and without any defenses for her strategy to work effectively.
Mrya, who was on the other end of the line, was stunned for a moment. A trace of resentment
flashed across her eyes when she heard two of the names she least wanted to hear.
It was them who had made her life so tormenting now.
Not only was she quarreling with Brigham, but even Charlie was being ostracized by his classmates
at school. He claimed that their parents had instructed their children not to play with Charlie. The
Hudson family was dealt a bad hand!
