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

Chapter 3419 They're His, But It Never Felt That Way

"That bag..." Nina pointed at the bag. "Your mom brought it over."

Percy walked over, picked up the bag, and opened it. When he saw what was inside, his brows immediately

furrowed.

"What's all this?" asked Nina.

Percy handed her the bag. "Just sstuff."

Curious about what it was, Nina took the bag and peeked inside. It was filled with car models and small toys.

She suddenly remembered what Karen said earlier and asked hesitantly, "Are these your childhood toys?"

"Yes." Seeing these things again stirred something in Percy's heart, but it still did not change his feelings toward

Karen.

Nina was surprised. She picked up a few of the items and said, "I didn't expect these to be so well-preserved."

"I thought they would've been thrown out." Percy still remembered these toys.

Technically, they were his, but in reality, they ended up with Pierre. As the Mallory family's heir, he was too busy

to play with toys. Hence, they were his, but it never felt that way.

Nina said, "Earlier, she toldshe wanted to givesof your things. That's why I..." She gently touched

the toys. Most of them were clearly quite old, with smodels even discontinued and no longer available.

Although Karen had always favored Pierre, she cared about Percy in her own way. Otherwise, she would not have

kept these toys in such good condition.

Percy let out a chuckle.

Nina looked up and asked with confusion. "What is it?"

"These toys? Sure, they were bought for me, but honestly, Pierre was the one who played with them. | was

groomed to be the Mallory family's heir from the start, so I didn't have tfor stuff like this. Calling them my

childhood toys sounds nice, but really, they were Pierre's."

Percy recounted it all with an air of calm indifference.

Nina was stunned for a moment. She had not expected that to be the truth.

"Well, | never liked playing with these things anyway." Percy smiled and reached out to ruffle her hair. "Back

then, | was more into sports. Anyt| wasn't stuck studying, I'd be out playing basketball or soccer. That's how |

got close to Luke and Jim.

"Add in the fact that we all cfrom big-nfamilies, and over time, we ended up being really tight-knit."

"Do you want to keep these as mementos?" asked Nina. After hearing all that, she did not think the toys held

much sentimental value for him.

However, since they were his, she thought she should at least ask.

"Throw them out. She's just trying to play the sympathy card. The only reason these weren't thrown away is

probably because Pierre played with them, and she couldn't bear to get rid of them."

Percy took the bag from her and tossed it into the trash can without hesitation. "She probably dug these out of

sstorage room in Mallory Manor. It must've taken quite an effort to even find them."

He knew better than to force a bond that was not meant to be.

As he thought that, a sudden idea crossed his mind.

"She went back to Mallory Manor."

Nina was surprised. "Wasn't she supposed to be on the run? How does she dare go back there?"

"Maybe my grandpa allowed it." The thought crossed Percy's mind, and his eyes darkened. Their marriage was

already a done deal, yet his family was still trying to interfere...

To the point where Old Master Mallory would let someone like Karen, who was not mentally stable, harm Nina?

Unfortunately for them, Nina was not the type to back down in the face of danger.

Percy lowered his head and kissed her forehead gently. "I need to head over to the psychiatric hospital to deal

with something. Will you be okay heading halone tonight?"

"No problem." Nina gave him a thumbs-up.

After Percy left, Sue knocked on the office door and stepped inside.

"Are you okay?" Sue looked at Nina with a worried look on her face. She was still shaken

from the sight of Karen holding a knife to Nina's neck earlier.

"I'm fine, really," Nina reassured her with a smile. Knowing Sue's concern, she added, "By the way, Sue, please

don't tell anyone about what happened today."

"You two..." Sue was rendered speechless. "Earlier, Mr. Mallory would rather let you face danger than call the

police, and now that you're safe, you're still trying to protect the Mallory family's reputation? Nina, | don't think

it's worth it."

Nina shook her head, realizing Sue had misunderstood. "Actually, Percy didn't refuse to call the police to protect

his mother's reputation or the Mallory family's image."

"If it wasn't for that, then why?" Sue was puzzled. She could not help feeling grateful to her own partner, Jason,

who had a far less complicated family situation. He only had an ex-wife, and it was nothing too messy.

"It was for me." Nina let out a faint sigh. Having lived through so much in this family, she had learned to see the

bigger picture.

"If this incident got blown up, imagine what people would say about the Mallory family. And if the Mallory family's

reputation took a hit, how would they see me? I'm already not accepted by them. If we escalate this and make

his mother's situation public, it'll only make Old Master Mallory despiseeven more." Nina explained

everything to Sue clearly. Sue let out a heavy sigh. "So, being a wealthy family's wife isn't all it's cracked up to

be. With the mess that is the Mallory family, your husband probably has his hands full cleaning

it up. | get why calling the cops wasn't the best solution. But you..."

Her eyes landed on the injury on Nina's neck. "You nearly lost your life over this."

That knife had been sharp enough to cut a major artery. If it had gone wrong, Nina would not even have had the

chance to fight back.

"But it didn't, did it? Don't worry, | have a strong will to live," Nina replied with a smile on her face.

Seeing that she had said enough, Sue did not want to push further. "Alright, | won't nag anymore. Lettake a

look at your wound. Is it bad?"

"Not at all. See?" Nina pointed at the small bandage on her neck. "If it were serious, a little bandage wouldn't be

"Got it." Nina gestured toward the stack of files on her desk. "I'll head out once I'm done with these."

"Alright." Sue nodded and left the office.

Nina turned back to the documents and resumed her work.

Pierre sat in his wheelchair. His expression darkened as he listened to Karen's subordinate's

report.

"Useless! She couldn't even handle something so simple!" he cursed angrily.

The subordinate flinched and cautiously reminded him, "Mr. Pierre, that's your mother

we're talking about."

"If she can't even handle something like this, what right does she have to be called my mother?" Pierre snapped

arrogantly.
