“Let Pierre go to prison?!"

Karen's steps came to an immediate halt as she turned to glance at Old Master Mallory.

His expression was dark. It was not just a threat; he was truly furious.

The anger in Karen's heart instantly reached its boiling point. She blamed Percy and Nina for everything.

If it were not for the two of them pissing Old Master Mallory off, he would not have said something like that.

It left Karen with a cold feeling inside her, thinking that Old Master Mallory truly did not value her son. Otherwise, he would not have resorted to such threats.

After Karen left the dining room, Mr. Bennet's gaze followed her, making sure she was heading upstairs. He then hurriedly returned to the old man's side to report, "Old Master Mallory, Madam has gone upstairs."

Old Master Mallory's expression remained terrible. Mr. Bennet quickly poured him a glass of water and handed it to him. "Please have some water."

Old Master Mallory took the glass of water from him and took a big gulp to ease the tension in his heart.

"Old Master Mallory, calm down. Master Percy is perfect in every aspect except for his relationship..." Mr. Bennet dared not to convince Old Master Mallory to let Percy do as he pleased. Instead, he said, "He chose this path. He'll understand your good intentions if he suffers in the future."

"I'm not sure if I'll have the chance to wait until that day," Old Master Mallory said with a heavy sigh. It was obvious that he was still upset with Percy.

He initially considered accepting Nina as his granddaughter-in-law if Percy agreed not to have a wedding. It was all for the sake of the Mallory family's future.

However, Percy did not acknowledge his sentiment in the slightest!

Old Master Mallory's expression turned more sour at the thought of this.

Mr. Bennet quickly massaged his shoulders, knowing that applying pressure to certain points on the shoulders could help him relax a little. It was a technique taught by the family doctor.

Old Master Mallory waved his hand and said, "You may stop. I need to meet someone. Ask the chauffeur to get the car ready."
