Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

After the two had their dinner, Nina thought Percy was heading home, but she realized the car was not heading in that direction. Hence, she got curious and asked, "Where are we going now?"

"To the hospital," replied Percy.

"Are you not feeling well?" Nina asked anxiously. She looked at him and noticed that he seemed fine. There were no signs of discomfort. Suddenly, something came into her mind, and she asked, "Are you going to visit Pierre?"

"Yeah, just to check on him. You don't have to come up. Can you wait for me in the car downstairs for a while?" asked Percy. He had not visited Pierre since he came out of the detention ward. Percy planned to pay him a visit since the hospital was nearby.

However, when Percy heard Nina’s tone a moment ago, he hesitated and intended to ask for her opinion.

"If you don't want to go to the hospital, we can go home.”

It would be the same if he went later.

Nina shook her head and replied, "No need. Just go, but I won't go up. I'll wait for you downstairs in the hospital."

"Alright." Percy gave her a gentle smile. Nina was always so considerate.

Even though Pierre had done many wrong things to her before, she endured everything for Percy.

What the Island of Despair did to Pierre was a form of revenge for Nina.

His younger brother had been too arrogant and had done too many wrong things. He deserved some punishment.

Percy drove to the hospital and parked the car in the hospital parking lot.

Nina unbuckled her seatbelt and pointed to a café nearby. She said, "I'll wait for you in the café for a while, okay?"

"Sure, I'll just talk to him for a bit and then leave. It won't take long. But if it gets too late and if you're thirsty, order some juice instead of coffee so that you can sleep at night.” Percy remembered her sensitivity to coffee. Just a little in the evening would keep her awake.

"Okay. Got it." Nina nodded, agreeing. Then, they parted ways.

Percy headed toward the hospital building while she walked toward the café.

Nina did not expect to encounter someone familiar in the café, let alone face-to-face.

As Nina was about to enter the café, Marie pushed the café door open and walked out. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

The two ran into each other.

Nina could not help but think it was unfortunate to meet Marie at this moment. Why would Marie be in the hospital at this time? Outpatient services were already closed by now.

Could she be hospitalized here?

Still, if she were a patient, why would she be drinking coffee?

Nina recalled the scene of Luca running into Marie and the words Marie had said to her. She could not help but take two steps back. It was a subconscious movement, as though Marie had some kind of contagious disease.

However, she also knew that even though Marie might be ill, it was not something that could be transmitted just by speaking a few words or being close to her.

Perhaps she was trying to avoid trouble.

"Nina?" Marie was surprised to encounter Nina in the hospital, especially at this time.

"You're back?" Marie had already initiated the conversation, so Nina had no choice but to reluctantly respond. After all, Marie was an extreme person. If she pretended not to know her or tried to avoid her, she would surely come after her relentlessly.

Marie, despite her despicable actions, was also extremely concerned about her reputation.

She let go of the café door and took a step forward. She did not block the entrance, mindful not to inconvenience others.

She carefully sized Nina up, realizing that her attire was all branded.

Previously, Nina had a lower starting point than herself. Now, while she was clad in street market goods, Nina was decked out in designer labels.

It was not fair. Marie had spent so much time and effort trying to build herself up, yet she still could not compare to a woman with no background and no outstanding qualities...

She even wondered what was so exceptional about Nina that Percy would be interested in her.

As for her, everyone despised her!

Marie felt extremely resentful, but when she remembered that Nina was Jean’s sister, she smiled and approached eagerly. "I heard you’re married to Mr. Mallory. Congratulations!"

"Oh, thank you," replied Nina. Knowing that Marie had come out from the café, Nina did not linger. She was afraid that it would disgust her!

She turned around to leave.

Marie immediately grabbed her hand. "We finally bumped into each other. Let's catch up, shall we?" "What's there to chat about?" Nina quickly pulled her hand back. She felt disgusted at the thought of how many men had held Marie's hands. "How dare you come back? Aren't you afraid the police will come after you?"

Marie's expression darkened at Nina's words and actions. It seemed that everything Nina did or said was filled with disdain for her.

She glanced at her own hands, which were not dirty, and retorted, "What do you mean by that?"

"How much money did you steal from Jean back then? Do you have any idea he almost starved to death because of what you did? He felt aggrieved, so he went to the police. The amount you stole was enough to press charges and get you jailed," replied Nina.

She reckoned that Marie probably had not gone to see Jean yet.

Jean had money now. Even though she did not know how he was spending it, he was wealthy now.

A rich prodigal son like him naturally would not look at Marie.

Therefore, Nina was not afraid of Marie going to Jean. Moreover, Marie would not dare approach him because of the money she stole.

Marie looked displeased as she listened to what Nina said. "Nonsense. I didn't steal his money. I borrowed it."

"Borrowed? Did you sign an IOU? Did he agree?" Nina countered.

"Marie, do you know how much trouble Jean caused me because of the money you stole? Shouldn't I report to the police now and let them arrest you?"

"You can't do that!" Marie panicked at the mention of Nina calling the police. "I can give Jean an IOU. Besides, Jean loves me so much. How could he possibly call the police?"

"Do you believe that when you say it yourself?" Nina smiled knowingly. Even though it was already dark outside, the hospital's lights were bright enough, and there were street lamps outside the café. She could clearly see the anxiety on Marie's face.

"You don't even believe in yourself when you say those words, do you?" Nina saw through Marie. She was good for nothing, and Jean was no better.

"Do you think I don't know what dirty things Jean has done to you? Speaking of which, your physical condition might also be partly his doing. Does that man really love you? He only chose you because he didn't have any other women available.”

Marie clenched her fists tightly. It seemed like Nina knew about her condition.

How did Nina know about it?

Even though she knew Nina had gotten involved with a wealthy man, there was no reason for him to investigate her.

In that case, she must have found out through Luca!

Luca must have seen the report last time at the hospital and told Nina about it.

Marie frowned in disgust. Why was that woman so annoying?

Why did she haunt her like a ghost?!

Whenever she saw Luca, it reminded her of Bianca.

Both of them were equally irritating!

"You're spouting nonsense! If you keep defaming me, I'll call the police!" Marie's composure was slipping.
