Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle
Chapter 2918 Incredibly Stubborn

"Percy! Are you trying to drive me crazy?" Old Master Mallory breathed heavily. He thought Percy would agree to this to improve their relationship.

However, at this moment, Percy seemed determined and unwavering, showing no regard for their relationship. It was all because of Nina.

"Grandpa, I can agree to everything else except for matters concerning Nina," replied Percy expressionlessly. When it came to anything related to Nina, there was no way he would compromise.

Nina watched how Percy made his unwavering choice in her favor. She could not help but feel deeply moved.

However, when she saw Old Master Mallory's face turning red, she was worried.

When Percy publicly announced their marriage without a proper ceremony, Karen fell ill from sheer frustration. Now, if Percy insisted on defying Old Master Mallory, it might also lead to dire consequences. She would truly become an outcast in the Mallory family.

Nina wanted to say that it was fine even if they did not hold the wedding ceremony. It would not affect their relationship as long as they were married.

However, with Percy standing firm, she could not bring herself to speak up in such a situation. She thought they could discuss it after they left.

"Very well!" Old Master Mallory said as he leaned on his cane and rose abruptly. He pointed the cane at Percy's face and said, "If you insist on marrying this woman, then consider yourself no longer my grandson!"

Percy ignored what Old Master Mallory said to him. He turned to Nina and said, "Let's go."

Nina furrowed her brows, allowing him to pull her toward the door.

"Percy, are you really willing to abandon your grandfather, your mother, and even your younger brother for this woman?" Karen stomped in anger. She stood up and yelled at them, watching them from behind.

If looks could kill, Nina would be dead right now.

Percy stopped without turning back. Instead, he glanced to the side, eyes locking onto Nina. He took note of her concerns. "I'll continue to take care of family matters, but I won't compromise when it comes to my wife.”

Then, he took Nina and left the house.

Old Master Mallory was so upset by his words that he slumped down in his chair, gasping for breath with his hand on his chest.

"Oh my, Old Master Mallory.” Mr. Bennet secretly exclaimed to himself, “This is no good!" He rushed to the living room, realizing that something was terribly wrong. However, by the time he arrived, Percy had already left with Nina.

He could not be bothered to get Percy back. He grabbed a bottle of pills out of the cabinet and rushed back to the dining room. He quickly poured a few of them, gave them to Old Master Mallory, and let the pills dissolve in his mouth.

Half a minute later, Old Master Mallory slowly moved his hand away from his chest. After he calmed down, he remained silent. His eyes were gloomy.

Karen was also startled by Old Master Mallory's condition. When she saw his complexion improve, she started cursing loudly, "I don't know what that bitch did to Percy! He's going against his family for a worthless woman! This is really getting on my nerves. If I had known he would go against his family for such a woman, I would've never let him be born into this world!"

Mr. Bennet listened to Karen's continuous rant and looked at Old Master Mallory worriedly. "Old Master Mallory, should I call the family doctor to come over?”

Old Master Mallory looked like he was going to have a heart attack. Even though he took his pills in time, Mr. Bennet was still worried that something might happen. He thought it would be better to have the family doctor come over and give Old Master Mallory a check-up.

“No need,” replied Old Master Mallory with a sullen expression on his face.

"Do you need me to take you to the hospital or arrange for an X-ray?" asked Mr. Bennet in a low voice.

"Go find someone to keep an eye on Percy,” instructed Old Master Mallory. He had no intention of going to the hospital. He knew his own body best. It was just that he was so angry that he could not catch his breath after he heard what Percy said.

Mr. Bennet noticed how stubborn he was and glanced at Karen, hoping she could help to persuade him.

However, Karen completely misinterpreted his meaning. When she heard Old Master Mallory asking someone to watch Percy, she said, “Father, let him do whatever he wants. He's grown up, and he's managing Mallory Corporation. He's no longer under our control. Why don't you focus on getting Pierre out instead of worrying about that? Will he be able to live peacefully in that detention ward?" "Madam!" Mr. Bennet could not help but feel anxious. Karen seemed to be steering the conversation toward what Old Master Mallory disliked the most. It almost seemed as though she would not stop deliberately infuriating Old Master Mallory until she was satisfied!

Karen glared at him, wondering why he was raising his voice. She was worried about Pierre!

"What matters the most now is to take Old Master Mallory to the hospital for a check-up.” Mr. Bennet was not afraid of Karen even though she was glaring at him. The old master's health was the top priority at the moment.

If something happened to Old Master Mallory, Karen's life would become even more difficult.

Why could she not understand that?

Karen looked at Old Master Mallory, whose complexion had returned to normal even though he was still wearing a gloomy expression. He was at least back to normal.

She said, "Are you deaf? Didn't you hear Father say he doesn't want to?"

Mr. Bennet was rendered speechless, feeling sorry for Old Master Mallory.

Percy was now unconcerned about Old Master Mallory's health because of Nina, and Karen... was not dependable.

As for Pierre, Old Master Mallory had already handled the situation fairly well. The police could not find any concrete evidence. It was only a matter of time before they released him.

However, Karen just could not let it go. She insisted on having Old Master Mallory sort everything out right away and getting Pierre out.

She claimed to be worried that he was suffering in the detention ward.

What kind of suffering could there be in a detention ward? Other than not eating well, everything else was just like a regular hospital stay. Pierre could not get out of bed now, so what difference did it make which ward he was in?

When Old Master Mallory did not say anything, Karen continued, "Father, if you don't help, Pierre will be in big trouble. No way, I have to go check on him."

When Karen stood up, Old Master Mallory chided angrily, "What are you doing?"

"I'm worried about him. He's not eating well or sleeping well, and he has to endure the police questioning him. I want to see how he's doing," replied Karen. She was thinking about Pierre. After all, Pierre was the only person she could rely on for the rest of her life.

He could not go to prison.

Mallory Corporation would never consider Pierre as a successor if he had a prior prison record. "Madam, Master Pierre is in a detention ward. Visits aren't allowed," Mr. Bennet reminded her.

If Pierre was not in life-threatening danger, the police would not notify the Mallory family to sign for a visit. Naturally, she would not be able to see him in person.

"Is there anyone the Mallory family can't meet?" Karen's tone was arrogant, thinking that the police would not dare to stop her.

*.." Mr. Bennet was at a loss for words.

The Mallory family was no longer united. Even though Percy was still managing Mallory Corporation, Pierre's actions had indeed affected the company.

Everyone in the Mallory family was equal in the eyes of the law.

There was no distinction based on social status or wealth. According to legal regulations, Karen could not meet with Pierre.

"If you want to put the Mallory family in a difficult situation and send Pierre to prison, go ahead!" Old Master Mallory could not be bothered to explain to her. He finally realized that Percy's persistence was inherited from his parents’ stubbornness and madness.

Karen was willing to risk everything to protect Pierre, even if it meant putting the Mallory family in jeopardy.

As for his son, he had not returned to his country for over 20 years for the sake of a mistress.

They were both incredibly stubborn!
