Female Novel
Chapter 3010
When the man was waiting by the car for Karen to come out earlier, he saw Nina hastily enter thehouse.
Later, the cleaning lady came out, leaving only Karen and Nina in the villa.
Karen looked like she was out to get Nina.
However, no matter how he looked at it, Nina was Percy's wife. Making a move against Percy's wifewas beyond the man's courage.
Even though Karen was the one paying his salary, if Percy decided to take revenge, he could notpossibly target Karen. Percy's retaliation would undoubtedly fall on him.
With these thoughts in mind, he dragged his feet even more, clearly reluctant.
Sensing his slow footsteps, Karen turned around and glared at him. "Why are you walking so slowly?"
"It's nothing.” The man quickened his pace, intending to assess the situation.
Karen led the man to the bedroom door where Nina had just entered. The door was closed. Sheinstructed the man beside her, "You, kick the door open."
The man had strong legs, and a few kicks could easily break the door down. However, he hesitatedwhen he thought that Nina might be inside.
Nina was a woman easy to bully, but the man behind her was not someone he could mess with...
"What are you waiting for? Kick the door!" Karen seemed to know what he was thinking andcommanded more forcefully.
The man was afraid, but he could not ignore Karen's words. Hence, he kicked the bedroom door.
The door made a sound but did not budge.
Karen widened her eyes, suspecting the man had not exerted enough force. "Did you forget to eattoday?"
The man frowned and shook his head, "No, Madam Mallory. It's just too sturdy."
Indeed, the door was robust, as were all the doors in this villa. A few kicks from others might not evenopen it.
Nina, who was hiding inside the room, listened to the noises outside. She was feeling a little anxious.While it was true this door was sturdy, it was not like the man could not kick it open if he tried.
Someone trained could kick it open with a bit of effort.
She worriedly looked at her phone, fearing that if the door was kicked open, she would be in for arough time.
Two more kicks landed on the door.
The man exerted all his strength, and this time, the door started to shake.
"Hurry up, hurry up," Nina muttered under her breath while sweating nervously.
With another bang, the door was kicked open.
Nina looked at Karen and the sturdy man, realizing she was destined for a beating. She frowned andtook a step back but did not beg for mercy.
Karen would not spare her just because she pleaded with her.
"You bitch, how dare you lock the door? I'm going to teach you a lesson on behalf of your parentstoday! Let's see if you'll dare to do it again in the future!" Karen stepped forward as she said thosewords.
Despair washed over Nina.
Reluctant to resort to violence, Nina found herself in a situation where resistance seemed futile. A burlyman was blocking the doorway, making it impossible for her to escape to another room.
Just as Karen was about to make a move, several figures swiftly entered the living room!
"Stop!" a voice commanded, halting Karen in her tracks.
Nina instantly let out a sigh of relief. Help had arrived. She took advantage of the momentary hesitationfrom Karen and the man to dart out in a sprint.
The man, who was pushed away, stumbled backward a couple of steps. When he regained hiscomposure and took a look, Nina was already hiding behind the security guards who had rushed in.
"Mrs. Mallory, are you okay?" asked the head of security. Nina informed them that she realizedsomeone had broken into the villa to harm her, so he brought his colleagues along.
Percy treated the security team well. He often sent them gifts of tobacco and alcohol. Therefore, thehead of security took Nina's safety very seriously.
They thought this high-end neighborhood was safe, so no one would come to harm the residents here.Little did they know, someone actually almost got hurt.
The head of security was embarrassed because he thought he had allowed someone to break in andharm a resident. If word got out about this, his position as the head of security would be terminated,especially considering all the goodies Percy regularly sent their way.
The gifts were all top-notch smokes and booze. Having received benefits from Percy, he tended toshow extra courtesy. Thus, the head of security shielded Nina behind his team.
"I'm fine," Nina replied with a trembling voice.
Karen was very strong. Nina had already taken a slap, another one might leave her unable to show herface for days.
Even though Nina claimed to be fine, the head of security noticed the swelling on one side of her face."Did they hit you?"
Before Nina could answer, Karen, having realized the situation, rushed out and squinted at the head ofsecurity and his team.
She wondered if her subordinate was formidable enough to deal with them.
They were just security guards, not trained fighters. If her men started a fight...
While Karen was calculating the odds, the head of security said, "This is private property. Kindly leavethis place!"
He then turned to Nina, "Mrs. Mallory, would you like to file a police report?"novelbin
"It's okay. There's no need to call the police." Nina shook her head. There was no way this incidentwould end up at the police station.
If it were anyone else, it might be a minor issue. However, if Karen ended up at the police station, itwould become a major problem.
The Mallory family's feud would bring trouble to Percy.
Even though the head of security did not understand, he complied with her request. "Alright, she'sbeing gracious and not pursuing this any further. You guys can leave."
Karen scoffed. "Why would she do that to me? This house belongs to my son. What is she compared tome? She can't even send me to the police station even if she wants to."
The head of security frowned, suspecting that Nina's reluctance to involve the police had something todo with this woman.
He never would have thought that she was Percy's mother.
As the head of security thought about that refined gentleman, he found it hard to believe that this washis mother.
How did this loud and aggressive woman manage to raise such a successful son?
Karen pressed on, "You're always siding with that wench. Tell me, what's your deal with her?!"
"I'm the head of security for the neighborhood," replied the security head as he frowned. What otherconnection could there be? Their duty was to ensure the safety of residents and their property.
"Hmph, I don't buy it." Karen scoffed. Her gaze shifted between the two. "You seem so worked up. Areyou and Nina hiding some scandalous secret? Are you her secret lover or something?"
The head of security's eyes widened in surprise. He must be hearing things.
She was Percy's mother, which meant she was Nina's mother-in-law.
How could a mother-in-law accuse her son's wife like this? She even did it in front of so many people.Was she trying to turn her speculative accusations into reality?
If people started thinking that Nina was having an affair with someone, it would be a disgrace for Percyand Karen herself. Why would she say such things...
