Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle
Chapter 2767 Asked Us to Save Him

Luke replied to Luca's explanation with a simple “mmm’.

Luca also remained quiet to avoid saying something wrong again.

On the other hand, Percy brought Nina back to the manor.

Old Master Mallory had dozed off with his back against the sofa, while Madam Mallory’s howls could be heard from upstairs.

At least the maids had successfully dragged her back into her room.

Upon hearing footsteps, Old Master Mallory opened his eyes. The butler who was keeping watch over him announced, “ Old Master Mallor, Master Percy and your..."

He trailed off when he realized that although Percy and Nina were married, they had yet to hold a ceremony. Old Master Mallory did not approve of their relationship either.

The butler had no choice but to say, “Ms. Nina is here.”

He was going to say Master Percy and your daughter-in-law were here...

However, that would only trigger Old Master Mallory even more.

Although calling Nina Ms. Nina would upset Percy, he had to upset one of them either way, so he let Percy bear the burden since he was younger anyway.

Old Master Mallory had just taken medicine to lower his blood pressure, so he was not in a stable condition

When Percy heard the butler, a look of displeasure appeared on his face, but instead of getting angry, he squeezed Nina's hand.

Nina felt his strong grip and did the same.

At first, she had refused to come in. She just wanted Percy to take care of things while she waited in the car, and then go home.

However, Percy insisted that she came in.

He said that she was already married to him, so no matter how much the Mallory Family objected, they would not be able to do anything about their legalized relationship.

Therefore, they would have no choice but to accept it in the end. Hopefully, showing her face around them will help them accept it.

Nina did not agree whatsoverl. The Mallory Family had gone through enough because of Pierre's situation, and to flaunt herself in front of them...

Although they were not fixated on Percy and her right now, her appearance would only serve to add fuel to the fire.

However, Percy's persistence left Nina with no choice.

There was disdain in Old Master Mallory's voice. “Why did you bring her here?”

“She's my wife, and Pierre's sister-in-law. You might not recognize our relationship, but as long as I'm a member of the Mallory family, so is she. Of course, she's welcome.” Percy held Nina's hand before walking over to the other side of the sofa and sitting down.

"She's not a member of the Mallory Family, so she’s not welcome here.” Old Master Mallory looked up at Nina with an expression full of hatred.

At that moment, Nina felt as if Old Master Mallory was abusing his power to disrespect her.

She wanted to get up and leave, but she forced herself to stay seated to save Percy from embarrassment.

Percy finally has the chance to make peace with Old Master Mallory through Pierre's situation. She could not ruin his chances because of her impulsive decisions.

Nina felt so uncomfortable, as if she was sitting on a bed of thorns. Yet she continued to remain beside Percy.

“Grandpa, do you still want to talk about Pierre?” Percy could not be bothered to argue with him about Nina right now.

Nina was his wife, and it did not matter whether the Mallory Family recognized that or not because she was his one and only wife.

There was no one else but her.

“Hmph.” snorted Old Master Mallory. Although he wanted to kick Nina out, Percy would follow Nina out if he did.

Old Master Mallory had to admit that he was getting old, and that his resources were not what they were before.

The person he sent out to investigate the situation has yet to return with any new findings.

The only thing he knew was that Pierre was taken to X City, and it was Percy who told him that... He may not be fond of Nina, but he needed Percy's help.

Old Master Mallory knew that he could not save Pierre himself.

No matter how much of an *sshole Pierre was, he was still a blood relative of the Mallory family. He had done many absurdly wrong things, but Old Master Mallory could not turn a blind eye to this matter.

Nevertheless, he could not handle it alone.

He had to rely on Percy and his friends’ connections

The Crawford Family and the Holston Family.

Old Master Mallory’s grunts created an air of awkwardness in the living room. Then, the butler stepped forward as the mediator by reminding them, “Old Master Mallory, Master Percy, the most important thing right now is Master Pierre.”

After he said that, Karen's wails sounded from the second floor.

It sounded like livestock begging for mercy before it was about to be slaughtered.

That piercing sound could've been mistaken for someone who was threatening Karen with a knife. Old Master Mallory knew that the most pressing matter right now was Pierre.

Yet, after condemning Percy earlier, he still could not put his ego aside.

In the end, it was Percy who broke the ice. “How much do they want?”

Old Master Mallory looked up and told the butler, “You say it.”

“They asked for thirty million, and they gave us a bank account, which we checked. It's a Swiss bank, but that's all we know. They're giving us a day to transfer twenty million into the bank, and to hand the rest to them in cash. They also said that once the money is transferred to their account and they receive the cash, they would send Master Pierre back.”

The butler had recorded the kidnapper's call.

Before Percy came, he had listened to it repeatedly with Old Master Mallory, so he could recite their request word-for-word.

“Did you record it?" asked Percy.

"Yes, but the kidnapper's voice was distorted, so we don't know what they actually sound like. The number was also very strange. It was just a bunch of random numbers that called the landline. The records show that it was a code,” said the butler. The other party seemed to be a professional with this many tricks up their sleeve.

"Have you confirmed that they have Pierre?,” asked Percy. He was worried that other people might take advantage of them if they knew of the situation.

However, it was unlikely.

When the butler mentioned code, he remembered something.

When Pierre was in Russia, his notes were full of codes too. When he dialed it, someone actually picked up the phone, even though he did not know who it was.

After that, no one answered the phone to that long string of numbers again

“They do..." The butler looked at Old Master Mallory. When he realized that it was the kidnapper, he put it on speaker to record it.

It was Pierre’s feeble voice that triggered Old Master Mallory’s blood pressure.

“Master Pierre's voice was very weak, as if he had been tortured for days. He sounded like he didn't even have the energy to speak, and the only thing he said was for us to save him,” said the butler.
