Chapter 1806

Madam Mallory certainly would not let Queenie know that she had been waiting for her, so she made up an excuse. "My son is hospitalized because he's not feeling well, so I'm here."

Queenie frowned, her mood heavy. Leia's illness made her empathize with Madam Mallory. She looked at her worriedly and asked, "Is your son alright?"

"The situation is not optimistic." Madam Mallory secretly rejoiced when she saw that Queenie responded rather positively. She turned around and waited for the elevator with her. "The doctor can't find out the root cause, so he can only rely on painkillers and valium to stabilize his condition."

"It's that serious..." Queenie's brows furrowed deeper. She thought of Leia,

She had been taking medicine and would go home to recuperate when she got better. However, if her condition took a turn for the worse, she would have to be hospitalized again.

The medicine that Luca prescribed was effective, but Leia's willfulness made her condition worse. The medicine had now become less effective.

Seeing Queenie's sad face, Madam Mallory made a plan in her heart. She sighed and said, "Pierre was hospitalized because someone plotted against him. The cause has not yet been found, so he can only cry out in pain. As a mother, I wish I can take the pain for him but... Sigh..."

Queenie replied with concern, "Someone plotted against him? Who's so courageous?"

Although she did not have much contact with the business circle, she knew exactly the status that the Mallory family held in A City.

"I don't know if you know her. That woman is doing whatever she wants with the Crawford family's backing!" Madam Mallory watched the elevator arrive, politely let Queenie step in first, and said all that through gritted teeth.

'The Crawford family?'

Queenie paused, walked into the elevator, and saw that Madam Mallory also walked in. She asked, "Did the Crawford family hurt your son? Aren't the Crawford and Mallory families on good terms?"

She did not believe that anyone in the Crawford family would break the peace.

Madam Mallory pretended to be thinking of something. Then, she shook her head and acted as though she wanted to avoid talking about it. "Forget it. It's a complicated situation."

"Mrs. Mallory, you are..." Queenie could not let it go when she heard the Crawford family's name being mentioned. If the Crawford family did something outrageous, she could plead for them.

"I forgot that Luke is your son-in-law. You should just act like you didn't hear anything about it." Madam Mallory pressed the button for the first floor. She guessed that Queenie was going home.

"Mrs. Mallory, is there anything I can help you with?" Queenie was not a gossipy person. Although she was related to the Crawford family, she did not ask any further since Madam Mallory refused to talk.

Queenie did not expect that she would not pursue the matter.

If it were someone else, they would continue asking.

Madam Mallory rolled her eyes, shook her head, and said, "Sorry, I lost my temper. I was too worried about Pierre. Sigh, I blame him for provoking that woman."

'Woman?'

Queenie frowned. 'How could any woman in the Crawford family provoke Pierre?'

The only people she could think of were Allison and Susan, but neither of them seemed to be the kind who would interact with Pierre.

"Who is the Crawford woman you're talking about?" Queenie was curious.

Madam Mallory lowered her gaze as a smug look flashed across her face. Her opportunity came, and she did not bother to be subtle this time. She said, "It's the woman named Luca Craw!"

"She's from the Crawford family?" Queenie looked suspiciously at Madam Mallory, trying to understand if there was more to the situation from the look on her face.

Madam Mallory sighed and shook her head, "Of course, she's not a woman from the Crawford family. I shouldn't have said these things, but at this point, I have to reveal the truth. Mrs. Norman, I think you're still being kept in the dark by Luke?"

Queenie blinked and had a bad premonition. "Mrs. Mallory, what do you mean by that?"

Madam Mallory deliberately showed an embarrassed expression as she said, "Mrs. Norman, you and I are not gossipy people. When some truths are uncovered, it may lead to a bad impact. Why don't you pretend that you didn't meet me today and nothing happened? "

The more she spoke, the more questions Queenie had. "Is there a secret relationship between Luca and Luke?"

"You know?" Madam Mallory blurted out the words, then covered her mouth. She deliberately pretended to have accidentally let it slip.

Queenie thought about what she had seen and heard before, as well as Susan's previous hints.

Nevertheless, she believed in Luke's character and his feelings for Bianca. She did not continue to question their relationship following Leia's illness and the kindness that Luca showed to their family.

However, Madam Mallory's words had rekindled her suspicions. "I know about Luca... Luca has good medical skills and she's also an employee in Luke's company. The two are friends. Do you have any

misunderstandings?"

"You know about everything..." Madam Mallory thought to herself. Queenie was not a fool, but she did not choose to pursue it. The reason for this was intriguing to her.

"I know they have a good relationship, but from what you said, is there any misunderstanding?" Queenie said. She hoped that Luke and Luca were just colleagues and ordinary friends.

"I also hope that I misunderstood the situation. Last night, I went to Luca to find out what she did to my son but Luke protected her. At that time, it was already after ten o'clock. If they're just friends, would they be in the car together past ten o'clock? She was alone in the cafe at that time and Luke personally picked her up after she left..." Madam Mallory said while noting the change in Queenie's expression.

'Ordinary friends wouldn't act as such...' Queenie's expression turned ugly.

Madam Mallory said, "I hope it's fake. After all, Luke has a wife. His relationship with Luca is ridiculous."

Queenie saw the elevator reach the underground floor and stepped out.

Madam Mallory followed behind her and said to herself, "Did I say too much? Sorry, I just feel bad for your daughter. If Luke betrays Bianca while she's still abroad..."

Queenie's appearance remained normal, but her heart was already in chaos.

However, she did not forget that she was still in public and in front of an outsider. Even if the outsider had a good relationship with the Crawford family, she still had to maintain her relationship with the Crawfords.

"I believe in Luke. He explained to me before that he and Luca are just ordinary friends. I have something to attend to. I'll see you around." Queenie finished speaking and left quickly.

Madam Mallory pursed her lips as she watched Queenie leave.

Although Queenie said she believed in their relationship, she noticed that she had changed how she referred to Luca.

A simple conversation as such could make Queenie suspicious.

Madam Mallory secretly rejoiced. Since Luke and Luca made her unhappy, she would not let them have comfortable lives.

She picked up her phone and made a call to her subordinates. She asked them to investigate the identity of the person in the VIP ward.
