Chapter 2896

"Don't worry about it. That woman clearly lacks manners." Another shop assistant comforted her.

They only dared to speak such words after the customers had left and there were no other customersin the store.

This was the first time they encountered such a person after working at the store for such a long time.novelbin

"That lady who came just now bought a lot of snacks. Let me restock the shelves first.” The shopassistant who had served Luca earlier nodded and turned around, moving deftly among the shelves.

The conversation between Myra and the shop assistant did not last long, but Myra felt frustrated forquite a while.

Myra arrived at the private room mentioned in the text message. Then, she pushed the door open,walked in, and found two other women seated inside.

One of them looked familiar. Myra took a closer look and recognized her as the daughter-in-law of theMallory family, Karen Ruiz.

As for the other woman, Myra thought she looked familiar, but she could not quite place her identity.

"You're late," Karen said with displeasure. She recognized Myra with just one glance.

When Myra realized Karen was from the Mallory family, she knew she was truly capable of helping theHudson family. She closed the private room door and approached with a smile, explaining, "MadamMallory, I didn't intend to be late. I just saw that woman in a store."

"Which woman?" Karen frowned. She did not like people who were not punctual, but she askedcasually.

"That bitch, Luca! She was blackmailing me. That's why I ended up being late." Myra knew thateveryone in this room despised Luca as well, so she gave a brief overview of the situation at the storeearlier.

Margaret could not help but feel angry when she heard what Myra said.

She was not mad at Myra but Luca.

"That bitch knows how to use Luke's name to bolster herself with false authority. Ptooey. We mustteach her a lesson and make her a universally hated public nuisance this time!" Margaret's reactionwas intense. Her expression twisted when she recalled that she accidentally spilled something on Lucaand ended up having to spend a few days in the police station.

The Jackman family was also facing difficulties now because of Luke.

Hence, when Karen called her anonymously, she did not care who it was and agreed right away.

She was on board as long as they shared a common enemy.

Karen took a sip of her coffee. Unlike Margaret, who had such a strong reaction, she calmly said to

Myra, "Let's order some drinks first."

Myra nodded. She was thirsty too.

After Myra left the store, she kept cursing at Luca on her way here. Her curses were so relentless thather throat felt dry.

After ordering a cup of Blue Mountain coffee, Myra was about to say something, but she heard Karensay, "I don't want our conversation to be overheard. Let's wait for the drinks to arrive."

Myra nodded, secretly admiring Karen's attitude. She truly was a person from the Mallory family. Shewas careful and thorough.

While they were waiting for their coffee to be served, Myra also learned that the other person presentwas Margaret, the daughter-in-law of the Jackman family.

Myra suddenly figured out why the person in front of her looked familiar.

Margaret was notorious for her strong hatred toward mistresses in their circle.

Another reason Myra remembered Margaret was because she had not missed any of the reports aboutLuca and Luke. She had been hoping to find evidence of their illicit relationship in those reports.

Furthermore, she also came across reports of Margaret being sent to the police station on charges ofintentional harm by Luke.

After the waiter served the coffee Myra ordered, Karen instructed him, "No one should enter the roomwithout our permission."

"Yes, Madam Mallory," replied the waiter in a soft voice. Karen was a regular at the coffee shop, andthe waiter did not think much of it. She assumed it was just a gathering of rich men's wives.

Once the waiter left, Karen took some documents out of a briefcase and handed the documents to thepeople there. Then, she said, "These are the documents I mentioned."

The women quickly skimmed through the documents. Then, they exchanged glances after they finishedreading them.

In the end, it was Myra who spoke up, "I told you she has an inappropriate relationship with Luke! Thisis evidence! How dare she intimidate me earlier?"

Back in the store, she was frightened by Luca for a moment.

However, when she thought about it, Luca was just someone who worked in a pharmaceuticalcompany. How could she wield so much power? How could she dare to threaten her? Therefore, thisonly strengthened Myra's belief that Luca had an illicit relationship with Luke.

Now, the evidence confirmed what she had suspected all along. Myra was excited.

"Ptooey!" Margaret scolded. "What a cunning vixen. If this were in the old days, she'd be thrown into apigsty!"

Myra's gaze shifted and fell on Margaret. Even though she did not understand why Karen hated Lucaor why she wanted to bring her down, she understood Margaret's resentment.

"Mrs. Jackman, the last time I was shopping, I saw her getting quite cozy with another man. They wereacting very intimately!" Myra recounted a scene she had witnessed when she went shopping with hersister-in-law.

"Another man?" Karen's brows furrowed when she heard that.

"Yes, I saw them buying groceries together. I think they were planning to go home and cook a romanticmeal together. Who would've thought that? Luke is cheating on his wife, but this promiscuous woman isalso returning the favor by cheating on him," said Myra with a touch of malicious delight in her voice.

"Why didn't the detective I hire uncover this?" asked Karen. The detective did capture images of Lucaand Johann walking together.

However, both of them were at the hospital, and many people were around them.

Even though they were standing close to each other, it would not hold up as evidence of anythingimproper between them, so Karen did not pay much attention to those photos.

"It was earlier than that, Madam Mallory. I noticed that most of the information in your documents arerecent events. Maybe you hadn't asked the detective to follow her back then," Myra speculated.

"That's quite possible." Her eyes flashed with a glint of determination. "It'll be even better if that bitch isdating other men."

Margaret and Myra both looked at her.

"I believe you both hate Luca and Luke. Exposing their affairs and also Luca's infidelity will make thewhole thing even more spectacular when the time comes, right?" said Karen. No man could standbeing cheated on.

Much of the reason why Pierre was in this state now was because of Luke Crawford.

Hence, she would not let go of any opportunity to embarrass Luke.

Both Margaret and Myra nodded, agreeing to what she said. "Yes. It'd be great to make these twoscumbags face public criticism and ridicule together."

Margaret chimed in.

Karen turned to Myra and asked, "Tell me, where did you see them back then, and what did the guylook like?"

Myra furrowed her brow, trying to recall. "I've forgotten what the guy looked like. He was prettyaverage. But I do remember the place where I saw them. Madam Mallory, I'll send you the location."

Previously, Myra's mind was consumed with anger when she encountered Luca. She did not pay muchattention to the man beside her.

Besides, the guy did not stand out in terms of look. Thus, it was normal that she could not rememberhim. She dared not to suspect any improper relationship between Luca and Luke at that time. Thus,she did not pa attention to what the guy looked like either.
