Chapter 1359 Good Morning, Mrs. Mallorynovelbin
Jean remained seated there with his legs crossed. He had no intention of standing up. He raised hiseyebrows in the face of Nina's fury. "What's the matter with you? I'm only telling you the hard facts. Thesalary you get from that company is less than what you get from Mr. Mallory in one night. You've beendoing this for three years. Why are you still acting like you're offended?"
Nina was trembling with rage. If she had a knife in her hands now, she would not hesitate to plunge itinto his heart.
There was no familial love to speak of. If she had not realized that by now, she would have lived her lifein vain.
Jean remained nonchalant even though Nina was furious." Don't be angry. Everyone in A City nowknows that you're Percy's mistress. It might not be a glamorous thing, but no one can deny your abilityto stay by his side for so long. Listen to my advice and quit that stupid company. The company belongsto that b*tch Bianca, right? Have you forgotten what she did to me? It's ridiculous that you’re stillworking for her!"
Clearly, Jean had not learned his lesson. Nina glared at him coldly.
All he knew was that he was sent to prison because of Bianca, but he had forgotten about what he didto Bianca.
Nina was disappointed that the years he spent in prison did not teach him a lesson. He had notrepented, and he only blamed other people for what happened to him.
He was sent to prison because of what he did, and Nina thought that he fully deserved it!
Nina wanted to crack open his skull to see if maggots had eaten his brain. Otherwise, she could notexplain why he could not discern right from wrong.
"I don't have money for you. Get lost right now!" She said angrily as she pointed at the door.
Jean felt humiliated by Nina's treatment of him. He stood up and said, "I'm your elder brother, Nina!"
"My elder brother isn't like this!" Nina said as she took a step back. She was disgusted by how he actedand the clothes he wore.
"You!" Jean clenched his fists. He wanted to slap her, but he remembered that she was Percy'swoman.
He could not get physical on her because he relied on her for money. Otherwise, if Nina tattled on himto Percy, he would have to suffer.
"It doesn't matter what you think. I'm still your elder brother. You used to love me and respect me whenI was in my prime, but I'm sure that you find me an embarrassment now because I went to prison, don’tyou? How cold-hearted you are, Nina!" Jean said derisively.
"When were you in your prime? Was it when you returned to A City? Jean Langdon, if you're a man,then stop blaming
other people for your faults. Our family wouldn't end up like this if only you could reflect upon yourself.Look at you now.
What else can you do other than eat, sleep, and go to nightclubs? A woman had cheated you of yourmoney once, and history has now repeated itself because you never learn. Why can you man up andtake responsibility for yourself?" Nina roared at him when her arms crossed in front of her.
She did not hope that Jean would listen to her.
"That's utter nonsense!" Jean blurted, feeling humiliated by those words.
"First, it was Marie Rayne, and now there's that woman. How many times has it been? You shouldknow very well! When are you going to learn your lesson? You've been cheated of all your money, yetyou still want to pretend to be rich. I'm also human, Jean, and I'm not your personal ATM. Stop askingme for money when you don't have money!" Nina
said mockingly. If she had her way, she would have disowned her elder brother.
Even if she had distanced herself from the family, Anna and Jean would still find her and ask formoney.
Jean had enough of it. He punched the air with his fist, but he dared not touch Nina.
Percy had told him that he could not hurt Nina if he wanted money.
"That's utter nonsense, you stupid girl! When have I asked you for money?"
"Isn't that the reason you're here today? You're here to tell me that the family needs money, aren'tyou?" Nina was not afraid of Jean's physical threats. In fact, she even hoped that Jean's fists wouldland on her.
How she wished that those fists would end her life. She had enough of being everyone's punching bag!
"When have I said that?" Jean said while shooting a glance at the maid, who was hiding in the dininghall watching the drama.
"Fine, you've never said that. I've already transferred this month's living expenses to Mom's bankaccount, and I'm sure that the money is enough for the two of you. I'm very busy. Leave now," Ninaretorted.
Jean nearly popped a vein when he heard that. He would rather not talk to his younger sister, but therewas no more money in the household, and his mother had forced him to beg for money from Nina.
He thought it unfair that Nina got to live in a luxurious mansion, while his living conditions were a lotworse.
If Percy were not living together with Nina, he would have moved into the mansion with his parents andlived on Nina's dime.
He pointed an accusatory finger at Nina. "Very well, you damned girl. One day, you'll pay for yourdisrespect!"
After that, he left the house in a huff.
Nina breathed a sigh of relief and fell sitting on the couch.
Fortunately, Percy left the house early in the morning. She was glad that he did not need to see theembarrassing scene.
However, if Percy were in the house, Jean would not have been so rude to her.
Nina sat on the couch and caught her breath before standing up again. She looked at the maid, whowas still hiding in the dining hall, and said, "Don't tell Sir about what happened just now.”
"Sir will know anyway. He'll check the security feed," the maid reminded her.
Nina was taken aback. Indeed, the living room was equipped with the most high-tech surveillancecameras that could capture high-definition videos and sounds.
However, she knew that Percy rarely checked the footage." Just don't tell him," she said.
"Alright, I know, Miss," the maid replied, not wishing to court trouble. Even though Percy was heremployer, she would rather not offend Nina.
After all, Percy loved Nina. If Nina complained to Percy about her, she would most likely lose her job. Inthe worstcase scenario, she might become unemployable.
Nina nodded, took her handbag, and left.
Her phone began to ring when she arrived at the garage.
Nina took out her phone and glanced at it. The number was not in her address book.
Even so, she could recognize the number. Nina took a deep breath and answered the call. "Goodmorning, Mrs. Mallory."
