"Are you not going to say a word?" Karen really wanted to force Nina to admit that Percy was causing trouble for Pierre.

However, Nina unexpectedly remained silent. Suddenly, Karen recalled what happened a few days ago.

Karen wanted to cause trouble for Nina while Percy was away on a business trip. However, her subordinate informed her that Nina had moved into Luke's place.

If she wanted to trouble Nina, she had to go to Luke's place.

She did not do that, or rather, she dared not to.

Nina saw the gloomy expression on Karen's face and she knew she had to be thinking about something. Thus, she replied, "I'm just here to buy some fruits. If you don't believe me, there's a bag of fruits in my trunk, and the bag is from the fruit shop near the hospital. Would you like to take a look?"

Karen could not be bothered to look. She wanted to slap Nina, but they were at a hospital. Even though there were no people around, there were cars nearby.

Almost all the cars here were equipped with dash cams. If she acted out, her actions would be captured by several cars.

If Nina took the evidence to the police station to file a report or even escalate the situation, it would be effortless.

Karen was not stupid.

At the same time, Anthony reminded her, "Madam, you should go check on Pierre first."

Karen thought of Percy being upstairs and recalled that Pierre could not get out of bed now. She had no idea how Percy would treat Pierre!

Hence, she shot Nina a fierce glare before going upstairs.

Nina watched her leave and immediately sent a message to Percy. She wanted to inform him that Karen was heading upstairs now.

After composing the message, she suddenly thought, 'What if Percy wants to stir up trouble for Madam Mallory?'

If she notified him of her arrival, would it not lead to an eruption of conflict?

Hence, she changed her wording: [Percy, are you okay? I suddenly have a stomach ache. I'm waiting for you in the car. Hurry back.]
