Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

Chapter 2917

Nina had the urge to turn around and ask Karen, but she held back.

The sensation in the palm of her hand kept reminding her to stay calm and not argue with Karen.

If she could not suppress her emotions and let her pride be torn apart now, there would be no need to have this meal.

Even though Old Master Mallory did not give Nina a friendly look, he could be trying to improve his relationship with Percy through this meal. She could not ruin that.

Nina took a deep breath and pretended not to hear what Karen said.

Percy gave Karen a warning look.

Karen was startled for a moment. In the past few days whenever she intentionally caused trouble for Nina, Percy would glare at her that way.

However, her mind was occupied with Pierre's matter. Thus, she did not pay close attention to the meaning behind Percy's looks.

This marked the first moment Karen locked eyes with Percy's caution-laden gaze. She felt a mixture of fear and annoyance. What did he mean?

She was his mother!

Yet, he was warning her for the sake of another woman?

Karen was displeased. She was on the verge of exploding.

Percy walked over to the dining table, pulled out a chair for Nina, and gestured for her to sit.

Nina nodded. After she sat down, she kept her eyes on him.

Percy sat beside her. Old Master Mallory took the seat of honor.

Karen sat opposite Percy. She felt uncomfortable seeing how attentive Percy was to Nina.

It was not jealousy she felt, but rather a feeling that Nina did not match up to Percy at all. Hence, she found it glaring when she saw them getting along well.
