Pierre was about to go to sleep.

However, there were some people who just would not let him sleep. His caretaker, Elena, had only just sat down when her cell phone rang.

Pierre opened his eyes, feeling irritated. "Are you thinking of quitting this job or what?"

Elena shuddered. She instinctively thought it was her phone even though she remembered having put it on silent mode. She took it out and realized it was not her phone that was ringing.

"Mr. Pierre, it's your phone." She quivered as she offered a reminder.

Pierre was startled for a moment.

Since his accident, he had become the butt of jokes in his circle. Everyone called him Limp Leg Pierre.

As a crippled heir of the Mallory family, he was deemed powerless. Hence, people were reluctant to associate with him.

Hence, his phone had always been silent. Even when it rang, he thought it was Elena's phone.

Pierre turned over and picked up his phone. His heart skipped a beat when he saw a string of numbers.

He had a bad feeling, and fear spread from the depths of his heart throughout his body.

Memories of his kidnapping flooded back, and fear rose within him.

Elena noticed that he was hesitating to answer the call. She could not help but curiously ask, "Mr. Pierre, why aren't you answering the phone?"

Pierre came back to his senses. After seeing the string of numbers just now, he realized that he had been living in fear.

He glared at Elena, knowing he could not escape.

Even if Abel could not show up, Pierre still had to face him when he was discharged.
