Chapter 3011

"Stop with the nonsense. Please leave this mansion immediately." The head of security could not helpbut wonder why any mother-in-law would want her daughter-in-law to cheat on her son.

He was just doing things within his scope of work, yet she said that he was having an affair with Nina.

There were so many people here, and if they believed her words, Nina was not the one who would bedone for. It was him.

“Hmph, she should be the one to get out of the house. This house belongs to my son. Let's see whowill be able to drive me out of here today!" Karen said rudely with her hands on her hips.

Nina felt helpless seeing her like that.

If this were a different house, she would leave right away so that Karen could stay as long as shewanted.

Besides, Percy had many properties, so it would not hurt even if one of them got wrecked by Karen.

However, this house was different. She and Percy had decorated every single corner of the housetogether, and they put so much effort into it that she could not just leave.

If Karen were to lay a finger on any part of the house, she would be heartbroken.

The security guard's head hurt at the sight of stubborn Karen and the extremely burly-looking man nextto her. He could tell that the man was well-trained.

It was obvious that the security guards would lose against that man. Although Karen was not going tocall the police, they still had to find a way to make these troublemakers leave. They could not use bruteforce because even a little accidental scratch would cause them huge trouble.

The head of security knew that they could not afford to offend the other party, but he had to fulfill hisduty. He said firmly, “Madam, if you don't leave, I'll call the police."

“Call them, then. Once they're here, we'll see if they'll make me leave or chase that woman out!" Karensaid. Percy had yet to issue a restraining order against her, and as his mother, she had the right toshow up at his house.

Although Karen refused to admit Nina's identity, when the police arrived, they would just deem it as afamily conflict. There was nothing they could do to her.

That was what she thought, but the man beside her reminded her in a low voice, "Madam, with yourcurrent situation, it's not a good idea to alert the police."novelbin

Karen hit Nina.

It would only be a matter of minutes before the police took Karen away.

It would not be a big deal for others to go to the police station as they would be released in no time.

For Karen, however...

It would be a serious matter. Although the celebrity scandal was helping her stay away from thespotlight, many reporters were still keeping an eye on the Mallory family.

That included Karen's and Pierre's affairs. Once she entered the police station, there would bedisastrous consequences.

The man whispered his opinion to Karen.

Karen's expression sank, and she looked resentful. Was that bitch, Nina, going to win like this?

The head of security got a hunch, so he immediately took out his walkie-talkie to tell the people in thesecurity room to call the police.

Then, Karen fiercely glared at him and Nina. “Bitch, you may have gotten lucky today because someguy helped you, but just you wait, I'll make your life miserable!"

After that, she made her way through the crowd and left.

The head of security watched Karen leave and heaved a sigh of relief. He finally scared her away.

Otherwise, he would not know what else to do as Nina did not want to call the police.

The head of security looked at Nina's red and swollen face as he said, "Mrs. Mallory, you should go tothe hospital to have your face treated or it'll take days for the swelling to subside."

"I will. Thank you for today. By the way, if you see Mr. Mallory, don't tell him what happened. Thank you,everyone," Nina said. She did not want Percy to get angry.

When Percy left for his business trip, he said that he would be gone for more than a week, so shereckoned that her face should be all better by then.

"Are you really not going to tell Mr. Mallory?" The head of security hesitated. Any daughter-in-law whowas wronged by their mother-in-law would want their husband on their side. Whether it was to venttheir anger or reason with them, they should still tell their partner what happened.

It was unusual that Nina wanted to hide it from Percy.

"It's just a small matter, so don't tell him. I don't want him to get angry. Please tell the propertymanagement and security guards not to let her in in the future," said Nina.

"Yes, Mrs. Mallory. This was an oversight on our part. We'll make sure to not let that lady in in thefuture." The head of security was secretly glad that Nina did not pursue the matter, so the issue waseasily taken care of. All they had to do was not let Karen in ever again.

"Also, please ask the door repairman to come over. The door here seems to be broken, so it needs tobe repaired." Nina pointed to the door Karen's men kicked in.

The door had to be repaired, lest Percy get suspicious when he came back.

"Yes, Ma'am. I'll contact him now." After responding, the head of security left with his colleagues.

He dared not talk to Nina alone now. If just one person spread what Karen had said just now, it wouldbecome so-called 'evidence'.

The head of security sympathized with Nina, but he was worried that he would get in trouble too.

After he left, Nina did not go to work straight away. Instead, she waited for the repairman to replace thebroken door before getting ready for work.

Seeing as the house was not too messy, she sighed in relief. Fortunately, Karen was still somewhatsane in the presence of outsiders. If she had broken anything, Nina would have had to replace them.

It would have been painful and heart-wrenching, and it would have killed her.

Exhaling, she touched her face. Then, she remembered that one side of her face was swollen from theslap.

No wonder the repairman looked at her weirdly just now. It seemed like her half-swollen face hadshocked him.

Nina laughed bitterly and made a hissing sound.

"Ouch..." she muttered. Then, she was reminded that no one was there to comfort her as her pillar ofsupport had gone away on a business trip.

Nina walked into the bathroom and looked into the mirror. She noticed that half of her face wasseverely swollen, and she could feel the stinging from the slap.

Karen hated her guts, so she did not hold back when slapping her.

How cruel.

Nina took out an ice pack from the freezer and put it against her face. She endured the pain and coldfor a while. She looked at herself in the mirror before finally giving up.

Even the ice pack could not relieve the swelling on her face.

In the end, she put on a mask and went to Brilliant Architectural Design LLC.

After arriving, the front desk employee told her that Sue was looking for her.

Nina hurriedly knocked on Sue's door and went in. "The front desk said you were looking for me."

"Yes, take a look at this document. If you're okay with it, I'd like you to do the job." Sue pointed to theseat across from her and handed the document to her.

They had been partners for many years, so they did not bother with the formalities.
