Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 2956

Karen glanced at the steaming black coffee and looked up at Ms. Tucker, who was standing beside her.

Ms. Tucker was staring at her as if she was scrutinizing her.

Karen felt uncomfortable being looked at, so she frowned and said, “Go do what you have to do. Don't stand there and look at me."

Ms. Tucker was startled at her suggestion as she could not leave the office when Karen was inside. If anything went missing, she would be in trouble.

Ms. Tucker knew that Karen favored Pierre and much preferred him to be the CEO.

"Mrs. Mallory, do you need anything else?" Ms. Tucker did not respond to her previous statement, nor did she leave the office.

Karen rolled her eyes as she knew that she was keeping an eye on her, so she ignored her question. She thought to herself that once Pierre was in control of Mallory Corporation, the people who worked for Percy would have to scram.

The thought of that made her feel as if that day would be coming soon. She looked at the photo frames on the table and sneered without saying anything else.

Ms. Tucker stood by the door, watching Karen's every move.

However, Karen did nothing else other than glare sinisterly at those photo frames, as if the people inside those photos had committed a grave crime.

Ms. Tucker was relieved.

If Karen had done anything else, she would not know how to stop her.

After more than ten minutes, two sets of footsteps ccloser and closer. Finally, Ms. Tucker was able to calm down. She looked toward the door. "Mr. Mallory, Madam Mallory has been waiting for you."

Percy's assistant had already told him beforehand that Karen was here, so he did not show much surprise when he walked into the office.

His assistant did not follow him in. Instead, he gestured to Ms. Tucker.

Ms. Tucker waited for Percy to enter the office before closing the door and walking out.

The assistant stood beside her and muttered, "How could you let Mrs. Mallory into Mr. Mallory's office!"

He knew that Karen was unhappy about Percy being the CEO of Mallory Corporation. If she stole any confidential information, it would affect Percy's management of the company.

Ms. Tucker felt wronged and said resignedly, “Mrs. Mallory wanted to go in, and I couldn't stop her. But she behaved herself..."

She did not finish her sentence.

Karen was still considered well-mannered as she did not try to pull anything in there.

"Be careful next time. Mr. Mallory may not blyou this time, but he will not go easy on you next time." The assistant saw how helpless Ms. Tucker looked, so he knew that it was out of her control.

No matter how bad their relationship was, Madam Mallory was still Mr. Mallory's mother.

In the office, Percy sat on the leather office chair and nonchalantly glanced at Karen without a trace of emotion on his face. "Is there something wrong, Mother?"

Karen had said before that if he did not break it off with Nina, she would treat him as if he did not exist. Despite that, he still called her 'Mother'.

He still had sfilial love left for her.

Karen glanced coldly at the photo frames on the table and wanted to make a fuss about them, but she suppressed the urge in order to solve her own problems right now.

Besides, Old Master Mallory had not given her much time.

"I'm sure you've seen the reports. I was indeed in love with that man when I was younger, but I'm the daughter of a respectable family. When I was with your father, I cut off all contact with him, so everything on the inteis fake.

"Both you and Pierre are children of the Mallory family, so you must settle this matter for me." Although Karen was here to ask Percy for help, her tone was still as arrogant as ever, as if Percy was obligated to help her solve this matter.

Percy opened up a file as he listened to Karen talk, his face expressionless.

"Are you deaf?" Karen frowned as she did not get a response.

What did that mean? Was he not willing to help her?

"Don't think that I don't know that this was Luke's doing. Since you're such good friends with him, why don't you talk to him for me?" Karen said it as if it was expected of him.

Percy put down the file and looked at her coldly.

He knew that Luke did it because he told him about it before doing so. Karen was the one who started it first, after all. That was why Percy did not want to object.

After ensuring that it would not affect the Mallory family and Mallory Corporation, he agreed.

Karen was asking him to talk to Luke now, but Percy did not think of himself as such a shameless person.

As Karen was the one who started it, it was only natural for Luke to get back at her.

It was a common tactic seen in today's society. Since Karen picked on Luke by humiliating him and causing him trouble, why was it wrong for Luke to do the sto her?

"I don't know who did this," Percy said with a poker face.

"You.." Karen's frown grew deeper. Percy was unwilling to help her!

After realizing that, the anger inside her grew.

"I've raised you for over 20 years, and this is how you repay me?" Karen said softly, trying not to release all her pent-up anger.

"I really don't know who did this," Percy continued. He noticed that the photo fron his table had moved slightly, and his gaze deepened before reaching to put it back to its original position.

It was positioned to directly face his seat, so that Nina would look like she was smiling at him.

"Fine. It's shocking how you have no idea who's behind this even though you're in charge of Mallory Corporation and the Mallory family. You're basically on top of everything that goes around here.

"It seems like you're not as powerful as you portray to be," Karen said through gritted teeth.

He even adjusted the photo frwhile talking to her.

Nina was more important to him than her!

That bitch!

After taking care of everything, she would make sure to give her a hard time!

Percy raised his eyebrows without refuting her critique.

Karen was a headstrong person. Once she set her mind on something, she was not willing to listen to others.

Seeing that he was looking at the documents without responding, she wanted to release her rage, but she had no way of doing so.

The more unbothered he seemed, the more her fury grew.

She took a deep breath and took a huge gulp of the coffee in front of her.

After waiting for over ten minutes, the coffee had already gone from hot to lukewarm. The bitter taste immediately tamed her temper.

She reminded herself that she did not chere today to change Percy, nor to argue with him.

Karen readjusted her posture to face him directly.

"Fine. You don't have to talk to Luke for me, but you still have to help me. If you don't take care of this for me, I'll be kicked out of the Mallory family.

"When that foreign woman brings her child back here, you can forget about being the CEO of Mallory Corporation," said Karen.

Daryl had an affair with a foreign woman when Pierre and Percy were still very young, and they even had a child together.
