Pierre did not expect Percy to have found out about everything.

Moreover, Percy had already completed the investigation a while back and had been hiding it from everyone. He only opted to uncover all that he knew at the perfect timing. It seemed that they had been keeping a close eye on his whereabouts for some time now...

"Enough with the hogwash. Today is about you wanting to be with Nina. Don't get me involved in this mess." Pierre refused to talk about it.

Madam Mallory said, "Yeah, be careful with what you're saying. Even if Pierre is ambitious, he won't put the Mallory family in such a situation."

"If this information is released to the public, how many people do you think will come to pick on the Mallory family?" Percy asked in a low voice.

Madam Mallory shut up.

She had not seen the evidence, so she did not know how serious things were. Nevertheless, she had a rough idea based on Old Master Mallory's expression. Hence, she did not dare to answer Percy's question.

"Ah..." Pierre cried out in pain when he saw that the situation was not in his favor.

Madam Mallory dashed to his side and looked at him anxiously. "Pierre, is it hurting again?"

"Call the doctor..." Pierre was in too much pain to even gasp for air. It would only hurt even more.

Madam Mallory immediately pressed the call bell.

Nina turned around and looked at Pierre. His face had turned blue and white due to the pain. He, who had always been arrogant and self-obsessed with how he looked, was now a poor man tortured by illness.

Her heart remained unmoved seeing Pierre's tragic state.

She did not have any mercy for him, nor did she rejoice at Pierre's misfortune.

Her gaze was calm as if the person in front of her was a random stranger.
