He could help Pierre grow, and he could also tear him down.

It was just a matter of time.

Percy still considered the Mallory family as his family, but from the moment Pierre made a move on Nina, he had stopped thinking of him as his brother.

The nurse walked in with the receipt and saw the two of them holding hands tightly. With envy in her eyes, she said, "Mr. Mallory, Ms. Langdon's discharge procedures have been completed. This is your credit card, and these are the discharge documents from the hospital."

"Thank you," Nina reached her hand out, taking the receipt and the credit card. She put the receipt in her pocket and handed the credit card to Percy. "Here."

"This is yours to keep." Percy did not take the card.

"Uh..." Nina looked at the black card in her hand. ‘How generous of him. There’s no limit to the black card. Isn’t he afraid that I’ll squander his money?’

"You’re my lover and soon-to-be Mrs. Mallory. My assets should be managed by you," Percy said.

Nina laughed out loud. The worries she had in her heart disappeared when she heard what he said. "I’m not great with managing money."

"It doesn't matter. I have a financial advisor, and he takes care of most of my investments. All you need to do is hold on to this card," Pierre said. He picked up some of Nina's items and handed them to the nurse. "Can we keep these at the nurse's station for a minute? We'll come and get them later."

"Of course." The nurse was envious. She took Nina's belongings with a smile and walked out of the ward.

Percy took her hand again and said, "Are you ready?"

"Mm." Nina nodded. Although she was reluctant to face Pierre, from the moment she admitted to herself how she truly felt about Percy, she knew that she had to face Pierre eventually. That was so that she could be with Percy forever and ever.

After all, they were brothers...

Percy was worried that she would feel pressured emotionally, so he reassured her, saying, "Don't be afraid, I'll be right beside you."
