Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

"Call the police? Sure, but I don't know if Jean's case has been closed. But with just 10,000 or 20,000 dollars involved, the police definitely won't take it seriously. That's why they haven't come looking for you since you left. After all, these are minor cases.

"But if you walk right into the station yourself, then who knows what might happen?" Nina said. "If you decide to call the police, go ahead and do it. I'm curious to see if the police will accuse me of."

After that, Nina sized Marie up from head to toe. Despite the scorching weather, Marie was wearing long sleeves. There might be something wrong with her arms.

Nina heard that the illness could cause growths on the skin.

If someone had some medical knowledge, they could easily figure out what was going on.

Marie's expression darkened. Naturally, she dared not to report to the police.

What would she report? Nina's defamation? Yet, a simple check in the hospital's system would reveal that it was not defamation.

Plus, she did not know if Jean had gone to the police to close the case. She was well aware that no police officer had come knocking at her door yet. It was indeed a small case. The police were too busy to keep an eye on Jean all the time.

Reporting now might just be walking into a trap.

Marie stamped her foot and cursed at Nina, "Nina, do you think it's impressive to have snared Percy? Let me tell you, the Mallory family will never acknowledge you. Even if you have married Percy, what then?

"An unrecognized daughter-in-law is as good as nothing. What right do you have to be arrogant? If the family doesn't acknowledge you, no one will support you when Percy gets tired of you.

"When you're abandoned, you'll be nothing more than trash in a ditch. You'll be worse off than me!"

Then, she sneered again and added, "You're nothing without a man! You'll be abandoned just like I was. You'll be equally wretched and miserable! Heck, you'll get an even worse ending!"

After finishing her words, Marie rolled up her sleeve. "Look. This is me now, and this will be you in the future!"

Nina looked at the bumps on Marie's hands with disgust. Those bumps only appeared when the disease had reached its most severe stage.

To deal with them, one would need medication, ointments, and injections. Otherwise, they could easily break and become infected.

Nina noticed that several of the bumps on Marie's arms were already oozing pus.

"My life will never be as miserable as yours, Marie. You'd better stay far away, or else if Jean doesn't send you in, I will," warned Nina, emphasizing that keeping away also meant not bothering Jean.

She could turn a blind eye to how Anna and Jean squandered that money.

However, she did not want Marie to disturb their lives any further.

"Why should I?" Marie's eyes were bloodshot. "Nina, what have I done to you? What makes you think you can send me in? Even if your man has some influence, you can't defy the law."

Nina frowned. She had a feeling that Marie's eyes could start bleeding at any

moment.

Could that illness cause red eyes too? She had not heard of that before.

After all, such illness was far, far away from her. Nina would not get it in her lifetime.

The people around her were not the type to engage in reckless behavior, so the chances of infection were naturally low.

"Percy and I definitely won't defy the law. It's just that the things you've done in the past could land you in prison for years. So, Marie, don't let me catch you doing anything wrong again. Otherwise, don't be surprised if I'm not so nice about it!" Nina warned in a low voice.

What Nina did not know was that her warning had sparked a different thought in Marie's mind. She shot Nina a fierce glare and cursed, "Nina, your days ahead won't be a walk in the park."

After that, Marie turned around and left.

Nina let out a sigh, shook her head, and glanced at the café.

At the thought of what Marie had been up to there and feeling no inclination to go

in for coffee, she decided to walk into the adjacent fruit shop instead.

Most of the fruits in this shop were genuine imports, and the quality was quite high. Nina intended to pick some to take home and store in the fridge.

She chose some that Percy usually liked and some that she herself enjoyed. When she was at the checkout counter, the cashier asked if she wanted these items to be put in a basket.

Nina shook her head, indicating that using a bag would suffice. They were not for gifting, so there was no need to make it fancy.

The cashier nodded and efficiently packed everything into bags.

Nina took the bags of fruits and walked toward the parking lot, planning to wait

for Percy in the car.

She first placed the bags of fruits in the trunk and was about to send a message to Percy when a car pulled up next to hers.

Nina paid it no mind and continued typing her message beside the car. Suddenly, the sound of a car door opening caught her attention, followed by a familiar

voice. "It's you!"

Nina was startled for a moment. It was Karen's voice!

She raised her head. Through the light from the parking lot street lights, she

could clearly see Karen getting out of the car next to hers.

"Why are you at the hospital?" Karen did not wait for Nina to speak and

immediately questioned her.

The tone was so assertive that it gave the impression as if the hospital belonged

to her and no one else could enter except her.

"I came to buy something," replied Nina. She thought she needed to notify Percy.

Otherwise, if the mother and son met now, the situation would definitely be

chaotic.

Percy was still resentful about Karen slapping her last time, so the best way to avoid a confrontation between the mother and son was for them to not meet each other. As long as they did not meet, there would not be a war between them.

"You're buying things at the hospital?" Karen obviously did not believe her words. She glanced at the car behind Nina and immediately recognized it as Percy's car. The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest

chapter there!

Even though Nina could possibly drive Percy's car, Karen was certain that the car

was not driven by Nina.

"Is Percy at the hospital?" asked Karen.

Nina remained silent.

"Is he here to trouble Pierre?" Karen,

om

for some reason, immediately thought of this. Nina was rendered

speechless. The first thing Karen

thought of was that Percy had come to cause trouble for Pierre? The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest chapter there!

Percy was not that kind of person.

The Mallory family did not hold Percy back, but there was no real familial no bond, and the family pushed him too

hard. That was why Percy fell out with them. The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest

chapter there!

Even though Pierre had done many wrong things and competed with him for the Mallory Corporation, in Percy's eyes, Pierre was still his brother. Therefore, Percy was simply here to visit Pierre, not to cause trouble for him!

Although Nina had only known Percy for a few years, she knew what kind of

person he was.

Karen, the one who gave birth and raised him, had such thoughts about him...

Suddenly, Nina wanted to give Percy a hug as she felt sorry for him.

Even though he appeared invincible, he also valued family affection. However, his family refused to believe in him, and they even suspected him...

With this kind of family, even though they did not hold him back, there was also

no real familial bond...

Nina realized that even with money, one might not have everything.

Percy did not have the familial affection that she lacked either. Perhaps the biggest thing they had in common was this. They both lacked it, and they both sought to provide warmth to each other.
