Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle
Chapter 3028 How Could They Really Apologize To Him?

Old Master Crawford had already figured it out, but when Old Master Mallory stated his purpose, he still put on a surprised expression. "Apology? This is..."

Old Master Mallory knew he was intentionally exaggerating his expression, but it was the Mallory family's fault. No matter what expression Old Master Crawford made or what he said, Old Master Mallory was left with no choice.

He could either take the initiative to explain and offer an apology or simply turn around and leave.

Karen hoped for the latter, but Old Master Mallory knew that an apology was necessary. "Yes, Karen misunderstood Luke back then. She talked nonsense and shared some news with the media, which has caused a lot of trouble for Luke. Crawford, Karen is here to apologize to you today."

"Ah, Mallory, so you're talking about this..." Old Master Crawford shook his head and looked at Karen's expression. He knew that even though Old Master Mallory had brought the conversation to this point, Karen still refused to apologize.

"To be honest, what Karen did was wrong, but it didn't cause me much trouble on my end. The main issue is still on Luke's side. Since you're apologizing for this matter, it's better to apologize to Luke." Old Master Crawford did not give Karen a chance either.

If she could not swallow her pride and apologize in front of her elder, he would not be kind to her. He would let Karen apologize to Luke, who was younger than him.

When Karen heard this and realized that she had to apologize to Luke, her expression became even more unpleasant.

Here, Old Master Crawford was the elder, and apologizing to her elders was normal. However, if it was flipped around with Luke Crawford, she would be the senior. A senior apologizing to her junior... If word of this got out, how could she face the others?

Karen was unwilling to do so. Old Master Mallory did not want Karen to do something so embarrassing either. Hence, he smiled and said, "Crawford, you're the head of the Crawford family. Karen still needs to apologize to you."

After that, he turned to look at Karen. There was a hint of anger in his eyes, and he dropped subtle hints in his words. "Why aren't you apologizing to Old Master Crawford?"

Karen was still reluctant to do so at this moment, but she dared not object. She immediately apologized, "I'm sorry, Old Master Crawford. I misunderstood things, and that's why I ended up making such a mess I'm really sorry."

"Oh." Old Master Crawford pretended to shake his head in solemnity. He looked at Old Master Mallory and said, "Mallory, I really can't accept this apology on behalf of Luke. I heard that the scandal affected T Corporation's share price and caused fluctuations for a few days.

"If it weren't for investors' trust in T Corporation, the share price might have looked even worse. You don't know how hard Luke worked to stabilize the share price...."

Old Master Mallory understood the meaning behind these words. Karen still needed to apologize to Luke.

"Yes, yes, Karen was wrong in this matter. How about this? I'll have her personally go to T Corporation and apologize to Luke." Old Master Mallory knew that if this matter was not settled, the apology would be meaningless.

Karen suddenly looked up. How could he let her do something so embarrassing?! Apologize to Luke? Never!

Old Master Mallory was speaking while paying attention to Karen's situation.

He knew she was not in a good mental state. That was why he had to be more attentive. After all, someone in a bad mental state could not control their temper.

When he noticed that she was about to explode, Old Master Mallory stood up and said, "Crawford, Karen and I will find time to go to T Corporation and have a good talk with Luke. Sorry for bothering you today."

"No problem. It's the young people's matter, after all. Mallory, it'd be better for us not to interfere too much." Old Master Crawford chuckled. His attitude was much more pleasant than the attitude he showed Karen a few days ago.

After all, with Old Master Mallory present, he should give some leeway. He intended to do just that.

"Yes, you're right. Well, Karen and I will take off, then. We shouldn't bother you," said Old Master Mallory. The apology had been made, and he had no plans to stick around. It was to avoid getting any more sarcastic remarks from Old Master Crawford.

He was about to be completely disgraced by Karen.

Old Master Crawford naturally knew why Old Master Mallory was in such a hurry to leave and intentionally said, "Mallory, don't leave so soon. We haven't even finished the tea yet. Oh, by the way, last time we played chess, nobody came out on top. Would you like to go for another round?"

"No, no, we've got other things to attend to today. Maybe another time when I have the chance? We can have a proper game." Old Master Mallory insisted on leaving.

Old Master Crawford knew he could not keep them here. He pretended to feign regret and replied, "Alright then. If you're busy, go ahead. It's a pity about the tea."

"Haha, we'll take our leave, then," said Old Master Mallory, leading Karen away.

"Mr. Griffin, please see our guests off," instructed Old Master Crawford.

"Yes, sir." Mr. Griffin escorted Old Master Mallory and Karen out.

Old Master Crawford picked up his teacup and took a sip. Watching Old Master Mallory take a hit lifted his mood considerably. The taste of this tea suddenly became richer and more satisfying. He gently lifted the corners of his mouth.

Mr. Griffin came back and noticed Old Master Crawford's smile. He gave a faint smile as well and said, "Sir, you're in a good mood."

"Yes, of course. Watching Mallory losing face here brings me joy," Old Master Crawford's smile deepened. His wrinkles revealed a series of creases. However, it did not make him look stern but instead added a touch of kindness.

Mr. Griffin poured him a cup of tea and collected the two used cups to be cleaned later. He asked, "Sir, should we inform Master Luke?"

"Why should we inform Luke?" Old Master Crawford raised his teacup, savoring the taste.

"Didn't Old Master Mallory tell you that he wants to personally apologize to Master Luke at T Corporation?" Mr. Griffin was puzzled. Should they not notify Luke and let him be prepared?

After all, both Old Master Mallory and Karen were elders. Making a solid impression on the surface was a must.

"He said they'd go, but do you think they really will? It's just a bluff. Judging from Mallory's personality, he'd never bow down to Luke. His apology here is not to be trusted, and we shouldn't believe any other promises either.

"They won't follow through, even if he manages to swallow his pride. And as for Karen, there's no way she'd be willing to do the same. Just listen to their words, but don't take them to heart," Old Master Crawford said nonchalantly, refusing to believe that those two would actually go and apologize to Luke.

If the evidence was not right in front of them, they would not have even admitted they were in the wrong.

How could they really apologize to Luke?

According to Luke, Karen's little maneuver behind the scenes did not cause him much trouble and she ended up lending a hand in a roundabout way.

Hence, Luke did not pay much attention to this matter.

This whole act by Old Master Crawford was just to show Luke's dissatisfaction. It served as a reminder to Old Master Mallory to keep a close eye on his daughter-in-law and not let her run amok.

It was to make sure this incident left a lasting impression so that they would not stir up any more trouble down the road.

Mr. Griffin chuckled as he agreed with the wise words of the old master. "You sure understand Old Master Mallory well."

"We're both sly foxes in the business world. I know him well, and he knows me well. That's why we can collaborate," replied Old Master Crawford. He rose to his feet and narrowed his eyes in satisfaction. "Will Luke and the others be coming back for dinner tonight?"
