Female Novel
Chapter 2539
“If it weren't for that b*tch who seduced him, would he be so busy? Old Master Mallory has made amove to deal with him, but he still refuses to give in. Well, I can see that he doesn't care about theMallory family, and he doesn't care about me either!" Madam Mallory clenched the blanket. Anger rosein her as Nina's face came across her mind.
Such an ordinary woman could make Percy fall so deeply in love with her.
Madam Mallory wondered where Nina learned those seduction techniques from. She could make Percyfall head over heels for her. Not only was Percy in love with her, but it seemed like Pierre was crazyover her too.
She was just a woman!
Those women Madam Mallory had arranged for the brothers were much better in terms of looks,figures, family background, and education. Nina was nothing compared to them!
If Percy still cared about his family, he would have visited her when she got discharged from thehospital.
He did not come to visit her, and he did not even call her!
Previously, Percy would not have done such rebellious things when Old Master Mallory was strict withhim.
Old Master Mallory was the one who taught Percy to become a decent person. Then, he taught himhow to do things well. Hence, Percy had always shown respect to his elders. The brothers were closeto each other too, and they managed Mallory Corporation well.
However, things were different now...
Madam Mallory closed her eyes and let out a long sigh. "It's that woman who changed him into anotherperson."
Pierre, who stood outside the door, heard what his mother said. A hint of gloominess lurked in his eyes.
Even though it seemed like Madam Mallory favored him over Percy, she put most of her hopes onPercy.
Was he not better than Percy?
Percy pushed the door that was left ajar and said, "Mom, have you taken your medicine?"
Madam Mallory opened her eyes and realized it was Pierre. She heaved a sigh and said, "It doesn'tmatter whether I've taken the medicine or not. I have to live with this sick body in the future. I can't doanything. Life will be boring."
Pierre frowned when he heard those depressing words. "Mom, what are you talking about? You canmanage your condition by taking the medicine. It's not as serious as you think. Besides, Grandpa hasbeen having high blood pressure for almost 30 years, right? He's still healthy and strong."
Madam Mallory did not say anything. Her sickness, Percy's rebellion, and the Mallory family tearingapart made her feel depressed.
Pierre asked the maid, “Has she taken her medicine?"novelbin
“Master Pierre, Madam has already taken her medicine," the maid immediately said.
"You may leave," said Pierre.
The maid responded and bowed to them. Then, she closed the door behind her when she left.
"Mom, the shareholder’s meeting is just around the corner. As a shareholder, you have to get well soonand attend the meeting," said Percy. Percy needed Madam Mallory’s support during the meeting.
"I’m not attending the meeting," replied Madam Mallory. She knew her health.
If she saw Percy standing against the Mallory family before she fully recovered, she might pass outfrom being angry.
It would be better for her to stay home. After all, there was no way Percy could win Old Master Mallory.
Old Master Mallory had been sorting things out as he was mad at how things were turning out. Manyshareholders had already shown their support for him, which meant they would be supporting Pierretoo.
As a mother, although she favored Percy more, she refused to see the two brothers turn their backs oneach other because of a woman.
"Mom?" Pierre had a bad feeling about this. He recalled how she had been asking for Percy thesedays, and he said anxiously, "Are you no longer supporting me? Have you changed your mind?"
"Mr. Bennet has already asked me to sign the agreement. My decision lies in your Grandpa's hands.He'll decide on behalf of me," said Madam Mallory. Old Master Mallory had asked Mr. Bennet toprepare the agreement early in the morning.
Pierre let out a sigh of relief. It was fortunate that things were how they were supposed to be. MadamMallory did not intend to support Percy.
“Take a good rest, then. Mom, don’t worry. I’ll make Percy regret his decision and let him know that thechoices you make for him are the best." Pierre held her hand tight.
Pierre knew what Madam Mallory had in mind. She did not want to see the brothers become enemies.
That was why Pierre chose his words carefully.
Madam Mallory heaved a sigh when she listened to him. She sat up on the bed and held Pierre’s hand."The two of you are brothers. Don’t make a scene."
It was just a reminder from Madam Mallory, but Pierre could sense the implication in her words. Hefrowned and asked, "Mom, are you asking me not to fight with him? Do you accept Percy and Nina’srelationship?"
"How is that possible?! I’ll never acknowledge that woman as the daughter-in-law of the Mallory familyeven if I die. Not a chance!" Madam Mallory went hysterical when he mentioned Nina’s name. Therewas hatred in her voice.
Pierre was satisfied with his mother's reaction and said, "That's why I want Percy to have a taste oflosing everything. That's the only way to make him realize how absurd and how wrong it is for him tomake such a choice. He'll come back home when he's unable to survive out there. Besides, isn't thatwoman after Percy's money? I have to make Percy go broke. Only then will the woman leave himalone. Percy will be able to figure things out then."
What Pierre said was reasonable.
Everyone in the Mallory family thought Nina refused to let Percy go for the sake of money.
Once Percy went broke, Nina would not hold on to him any longer.
"You're right. We must let Percy know that woman's true colors. Their relationship won't last withoutmoney!" Madam Mallory turned to look at Pierre. "Pierre, you must fight for the management right ofMallory Corporation during the shareholder's meeting. Let Percy leave the Mallory Corporation for awhile. Only then can we move on from all of this."
Old Master Mallory planned to make Percy leave Mallory Corporation. Then, he would make use of hispower and influence in A City and even the whole country so that Percy would not be able to get a job.
The couple would not last long if Percy had no money and no job.
Nina would leave him too.
Pierre noticed that there was a trace of resentment in her eyes when she said that.
Even though Percy disobeyed them and refused to accept their arrangements, they were waiting forPercy to come back to them and let him run Mallory Corporation again.
Pierre would never let this happen.
After Mallory Corporation fell into his hands, no one could take it away from him, not even Percy!
There was not only one successor in the Mallory family. Why did everyone have high expectations ofPercy? Pierre wanted them to know that he could take up the position too!
Moreover, not only was Pierre going to get Mallory Corporation, but he was also going to make Nina hiswoman.
When Percy lost everything, Nina would still come to him for the sake of money.
"Pierre, promise me." Madam Mallory held Pierre's hand.
