Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle
Chapter 3001 It Was Luke Crawford Who Told Me To Do It

However, the Karen in front of him was nothing like the old Karen.

She narrowed her eyes and smirked coldly, "Silas Gray, you really can do anything for money, huh..."

Silas let out a cold shiver. That malicious tone of hers was like an invisible knife held at his throat.

He realized Karen no longer had the feelings she once had for him. Not only did she lack any sentiment, but she also seemed inclined to end his life!

Pain and fear washed over Silas... He recalled the days when the Ruiz family forced him to stay away from A City. He could not help but shudder. He learned that one should never offend the Ruiz family. That was when he grasped this particular life lesson.

During that time, the Ruiz family wielded significant influence and power. It was way beyond the reach of someone like him, a regular civilian.

Years had passed, and he truly had no money left. He was so poor that he could not even afford a meal. That was why he did not hesitate and agreed directly when those people found him.

After all, Karen's family had lost much of their former wealth, influence, and power over the years.

However, little did he expect that Karen could still squeeze the life out of him so effortlessly...

A hint of disdain appeared in Karen's eyes when she saw Silas in this state. She wondered how she had ended up with such a man in the first place and recalled all the stories that unfolded between them... Karen felt her stomach churn. She was nauseated by the swarm of thoughts.

She raised her hand, initially thinking of slapping Silas. However, she remembered what her subordinate had said and opted for a swift kick instead, landing it forcefully.

"Ugh," grunted Silas as he collapsed to the ground.

Karen showed no mercy when she faced her former lover. Considering the things he had done, she wished she could go back in time and slap him the moment they first met.

If she had put an end to that chapter of her life, it was unlikely that Daryl would have an affair. Their married life could have been much happier.

After all, Daryl was far superior to the man lying on the ground. Even if he did not have strong feelings for her, he would at least treat her with respect and they could lead a happy life together.

"Silas, you ruined my past life and now you want to ruin my life. I won't let you get away with it!" Karen declared ominously. She leaned down, locking eyes with his dark, withered face. Her eyes were filled with resentment.

It was as though an evil spirit was staring at him. Silas let out another cold shiver. The man beside them could not help but wonder how could a man be so spineless. Especially when he used to be Karen's lover.

He found it unbelievable.

"I'm sorry, Karen. I messed up. I was just desperate for money. If it weren't for your brother..."

"Shut up!" Karen cut him off harshly. What Silas was trying to say was that if it were not for her brother kicking him out back then, he would not be in the mess he was in today.

Silas used to have a slightly better education than others, but he lacked ambition. Even if he was expelled from A City, there were plenty of coastal cities where he could have thrived.

If he really had the talent, why limit himself to the countryside where he worked like a farmer? He could have flourished anywhere, no?

The problem was that Silas lived a life of complacency. Even if he had stayed in A City, he would have relied on his looks and education to deceive other women. He would have become nothing more than a gigolo.

Hatred burned within Karen. This guy was absolutely despicable!

She thought about kicking him again, but the man beside her reminded, "Madam Mallory, we've got more important things to attend to."

His words made Karen come back to her senses. She frowned and asked, "Are you saying it was Luke Crawford who instructed you to release those so-called facts to the media?"

Silas initially wanted to argue that it was indeed the truth, not the so-called facts.

However, when he met Karen's piercing gaze, he shivered and reluctantly nodded. "Yes, it was Luke Crawford who told me to do it. He said if I could tarnish your reputation, there would be a big sum waiting fo

me.

"He even arranged for me to stay in a five-star hotel, and there were people protecting me until recently. Maybe they pulled back because they thought you couldn't find me, so it didn't matter..."

Silas knew if he did not spill the beans, he would be in big trouble.

Saying it this way might shift Karen's anger onto that guy named Luke Crawford.

"Luke Crawford..." Karen's expression darkened. She turned to her subordinate, "Is it all recorded?"

"Yes, it's already recorded," replied the man.

Karen rose to her feet and looked down at the man on the ground. Her face was full of disgust as she said, "Have two men keep an eye on him. This man might still be useful."

"Yes, Madam." The man nodded.

"Send me the recording. I'm going to confront the Crawford family now." Karen could not wait to seek answers from the Crawford family.

She had no intention of confronting Luke. Even though that sly fellow did not talk much, he was slick enough to talk someone into a corner. She planned to confront Old Master Mallory. Did Luke not use Old Master Mallory to deal with Pierre before? Now, it was her turn to let him have a taste of his own medicine.

The man hesitated for a while but decided to send the recording to her phone. After he pondered for a moment, he asked, "Madam Mallory, are you really going to look for Luke Crawford now?"

"This man already admitted it, didn't he? Luke Crawford told him to do it. Do I really have to play nice with him?" Karen shot Silas a cold glance, who was on the ground.

"But other than this recording, we don't have any other evidence. The Crawford family isn't easy to deal with," reminded the man. They needed substantial evidence to confront them.

Depending solely on a recording or a video, even if the Crawford family did something, they could easily deny it...

They might even claim not to know Silas Gray, saying he was just talking nonsense...

Karen furrowed her brows. She had not overlooked this.

"Silas, Luke gave you money. Where's the transfer record?" Karen looked down on him with disdain.

Silas trembled and replied, "The money is in the bank..."

He understood what the man meant. They needed evidence.

However, he had received the money in cash.

Being stuck in the countryside for so long, living hand to mouth, he only recognized cold, hard cash. When someone talked about transferring money, he thought it was just a way to pull the wool over his eyes. Hence, Silas was more than willing to accept cash.

That was why he had no bank statements. If those people who protected him earlier did not show up, he would not even know who to point to.

"As long as there's a transfer record. Let's go. We're going to Crawford Manor now," Karen had no plans to take Silas to the bank.

After all, printing bank statements required the person to be present at the counter. With Silas' face swollen like a pig's head, what if he turned the tables on her at the bank?

Moreover, if she informed Luke in advance that she found Silas, he might come up with a countermeasure.

Karen decided to catch Luke off guard. She was not thinking about gathering evidence right away.

Besides, with this recording, Luke would recognize Silas' voice. Perhaps he would confess without needing additional proof.
