After Nina received a message from Percy, she quickly cleaned up a guest bedroom in the villa and laid out the beddings and blanket. She also prepared a new set of toiletries.

Then, she nervously waited for Percy and Karen in the living room.

She knew that Percy had gone to the hospital to deal with Pierre's matters, but she did not expect him to bring Karen back.

Something must have happened.

Nina grew anxious when it crossed her mind. She knew that Karen did not like her. Their previous meetings had always ended on a sour note. Facing her gave Nina a lot of pressure.

However, Karen was Percy's mother, after all. There was no way she could refuse to meet her and get along with her.

The moment she chose to marry Percy, she had chosen to stand by his side. No matter how difficult the Mallory family's matters were, she was determined to face them together.

In marriage, it was not about the husband carrying the load alone, but it was about sharing the burden together.

As Nina thought Karen might intentionally nitpick and make things difficult later, she quickly went to the kitchen to prepare some flower tea, coffee, and freshly squeezed juice.

She would rather make extra preparations than face Karen's criticism.

With everything ready, she sat on the sofa for a while. Then, she heard noises coming from outside.

Percy had returned.

Nina immediately stood at the entrance and watched as Percy walked in, accompanied by Karen. Her heart skipped a beat at the sight of Karen.

After Karen saw her, her expression was filled with disgust. She secretly let out a cold snort after she heard Nina say, “Good evening, Madam Mallory."

When she heard Nina address her as Madam Mallory, Karen was startled for a moment. However, she immediately thought that it was acceptable.
