Female Novel
Chapter 2540
Pierre quickly concealed his feelings, nodded, and replied, "Mom, don't worry. I'll do as I'm told."
Madam Mallory was still worried about it at the thought of Pierre pursuing Nina back then. She thoughtit would be inappropriate to mention it directly, so she had no choice but to say, “Pierre, go over to theChamberlain family’s place to have a meal with their daughter,” said Madam Mallory. She immediatelypicked up her phone, thinking of contacting the Chamberlains.
Before the New Year, Madam Mallory intended to arrange a marriage for Pierre. It was to pave the wayfor Pierre’s future.
"Mom, I'm busy with the shareholder’s meeting." Pierre knew what Madam Mallory had in mind.Although the Chamberlain family did not have many assets in A City, they were one of the top assetholders in M City.
Besides, Pierre had heard the news that the Chamberlain family was planning to move their assets to ACity. After they moved all their assets here, their social status in A City would grow higher.
Hence, a marriage of convenience with the Chamberlain family was indeed beneficial to him.
However, Pierre did not want to gain more support with his marriage. Percy did not have a womanbehind him to support him, so he would not either.
"It’s just a meal. How long is it going to take? The daughter of the Chamberlain family is prettier thanyour ex-fiancée. The two of you only have to have dinner together. It’ll be great if it works out, but ifthings don’t work out between the two of you, you have nothing to lose either.” Madam Mallory tried toconvince him.
If it were not for Pierre’s ex-fiancée who misunderstood Pierre and asked her family to break off theirengagement, she would not have to worry about Pierre’s marriage now.
Madam Mallory could not help but be on alert at the thought of Pierre trying to pursue Nina.
If Percy separated from Nina in the future, would Pierre...
Madam Mallory could not let this happen. That was why she wanted to settle the matter of Pierre’smarriage before Percy fell from grace.
"Mom." Pierre knew who the daughter of the Chamberlain family was, but he was not interested in her.
He was not interested in his ex-fiancée either. Still, it was Madam Mallory’s arrangement, and he had toobey.
"Okay. That’s it. Meet her once. Don’t let me worry about you. I’ve informed Mrs. Chamberlain." MadamMallory persuaded Pierre. "Your brother has let me down. Pierre, be good and listen to me. It’s better tolisten to the elders when it comes to marriage. I don’t care how playful you usually are, but you have to
listen to me when it's about choosing your wife."
“Fine. Make it tomorrow at noon. She can decide which restaurant to go to. Just inform me when shehas reserved the restaurant." Pierre had no choice but to compromise.
He could not disobey Madam Mallory now.
After all, Pierre could sense that she was still wavering a little between him and Percy. If Pierre refusedto listen to her, she might side with Percy.
“I know all you think about is your career, but please be kind to her when you meet her tomorrow,okay?" Madam Mallory reminded him.
“Mom, I won't try to please anyone," Pierre replied with a gloomy face. It had always been women whotried to please him. He had never buttered anyone up.
The only exception was that stupid woman, Nina.
Madam Mallory was worried that Pierre would mess things up. She let out a tsk and said, "I didn't askyou to please her. Just be more gentlemanly, okay? I'll send Belle's information to you later. Take agood look at it and leave a good impression on her. Even if things don't work out between you two orthe two of you aren't interested in each other, we'll still have the chance to cooperate with theChamberlain family in the future."
Madam Mallory had looked into the assets owned by the Chamberlain family in other cities. They couldwork together with Mallory Corporation.
In the future, the Chamberlain family could be a partner of the Mallory family.
"Got it," replied Pierre. Even though he did not like the idea of a marriage of convenience, he was notagainst the arrangements Madam Mallory had made for him.
Pierre did not want the others to think that it was the Chamberlain's family that helped him get MalloryCorporation!
Pierre left after that.
Madam Mallory discussed with Mrs. Chamberlain the time. After she received Belle's answer, she sentPierre the time and venue that Belle had decided.
Then, Madam Mallory sent another file to Pierre. The file had all the information about Belle's familybackground and her favorite things. The information was provided by the private detective MadamMallory hired.
After Madam Mallory saw that the message was successfully sent to Pierre, she opened Belle'sinformation.novelbin
The more she read it, the more satisfied she was.
After Percy and Madison broke off their engagement, Madam Mallory initially planned to make himmarry Belle Chamberlain. However, she did not expect Percy to be so rebellious by insisting on beingtogether with Nina.
Madam Mallory felt a pain in her chest at the thought of this. She found it difficult to breathe as shegasped for air.
Belle Chamberlain was a million times better than Nina.
The more Madam Mallory thought about it, the more her heart hurt. She put her phone aside andstopped looking at it.
Belle Chamberlain was an outstanding woman. It upset Madam Mallory at the thought of Percychoosing Nina over Belle.
On the other hand...
Percy saw the message Madam Mallory sent to him. He raised his brows. The venue Belle haddecided was near the suburbs.
Why did she choose to go there?
[Mom, are you sure you got it right? The address you gave me is near the suburbs.] Pierre sent MadamMallory a message.
[It's correct. Mrs. Chamberlain said that Belle has been looking for a building for their company'sbranch. She happens to be in that area tomorrow. That's why she set the venue there. You're driving
anyway. It's convenient. Just head there.] Madam Mallory knew Pierre was impatient, so she convincedhim.
[It's too far away.] Pierre replied. He was trying to beat the clock and finish reading all the documents ofMallory Corporation now.
Previously, Pierre was the one who managed Mallory Corporation. Pierre did not even think of fightingfor it back then. That was why he missed out on a lot of documents.
The documents that he was supposed to read were eventually handed to his assistant. He had no ideaabout Mallory Corporation's decisions and their annual development plans.
Now, although Pierre had Old Master Mallory's support, he could not show that he knew nothing aboutthe company. Otherwise, he would be flabbergasted if the shareholders asked him about thecompany's matters during Mallory Corporation's shareholder's meeting.
However, there were so many documents Pierre had to read. He was running out of time. Still, he hadto follow his mother's arrangement to have a meal with Belle Chamberlain, not to mention that he hadto travel some distance to meet her. Pierre could not help feeling resentful.
[It's not going to take a long time for you to drive there. If you think it's troublesome, ask the chauffeurto send you there tomorrow. Dress well. Remember to put on formal attire. Belle likes elite-lookingmen," reminded Madam Mallory.
Elite?
Pierre raised his brows. That was not his style. Wearing a suit with a tie all day was something onlyPercy and Luke would insist on doing.
Putting on a suit was Pierre's highest show of respect.
He replied impatiently: [Okay.]
Madam Mallory was still worried about it. After a while, she walked into Pierre's study.
“Mom, why aren't you resting on the bed? Why did you come here?" Pierre rose to his feet and helpedMadam Mallory up.
Madam Mallory frowned and gently pushed him away. "I'm not that weak. You don't have to help meup. Let's go."
"Where are we going?" Pierre asked with confusion.
"I'm worried. It's an important lunch date tomorrow. Let me pick your suit and tie for you," said MadamMallory. Belle had mentioned in one of the interviews that she admired such men the most.
