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

Before the caretaker could say anything, the ward door swung open again.
She and Pierre looked toward the door and saw an unfamiliar face. Then, the caretaker immediately stood in front of the hospital
bed, trying to cover Pierre's face with her body so that no one would notice who was on the hospital bed.
The person at the door was an elegantly dressed woman whom the caretaker did not recognize.
However, Pierre recognized her. "Mom?"
He sounded surprised. Old Master Mallory said that the mental state of his mother, Karen, was currently very unstable and that
he would reach out to a psychiatrist for help. In order to prevent her from getting into trouble, he kept her at home, so Karen
never visited him in the hospital.
Thus, Pierre was surprised to see her show up at the hospital.
After hearing what Pierre said, the caretaker stepped aside. Since she was his family member, she would not disclose the news
that he had been hospitalized.
Karen impatiently walked to the bedside and looked at Pierre's plastered right leg. Her eyes brimmed with tears. "Pierre, does it
hurt?"
Pierre saw her hand approaching to caress him, but he found it weird, so he dodged it.
He was not a woman, so he did not need this kind of sympathetic maternal love. "Mom, why are you here?"
"How can I not show up when you're in the hospital?" Karen's heart ached at the sight of Pierre's thin face.
Old Master Mallory only told her about this huge news yesterday.
Karen could not help but feel heartbroken at the thought of Pierre suffering. How did he even survive during this time?
Not to mention the Mallory family could not even make a police report because they had not found out who was behind it.
"Grandpa said that your mental health isn't doing great..." Pierre hesitated before asking, "Are you feeling better?"
Old Master Mallory said that Karen was in low spirits and had poor mental health, but he was not entirely convinced.
Karen seemed quite normal before, so how could she become abnormal all of a sudden?

He was not in the mood to inquire anyway. All he could think about was everyone telling him that his leg was going to be
impaired, so he had no intention of asking about Karen's condition.
The Mallory family would not let anything happen to Karen anyway.
Karen snorted softly and turned to look at the caretaker. “We have things to discuss, so you can go guard the door. Don't
eavesdrop."
"Yes, Ma'am." The caretaker looked at her elegant outfit, yet there was not a hint of kindness on her face. She dared not
eavesdrop, so she immediately walked out of the ward and closed the door tightly. She took a few steps to the side and stood
there.
Karen looked back at Pierre, and her loving expression changed into a serious face. Then, she said, "Can your grandpa's words
even be trusted?"
Pierre raised his eyebrows in confusion.
Karen knew what was on his mind, so she snorted. "Pierre, you got into big trouble this time. Old Master Mallory tends to ignore
these things, and I can't take care of things myself. After I found out you were kidnapped, I was worried about the kidnappers
coming to the Mallory family for money. The Mallory family wasn't willing to pay, so I had no choice but to act crazy."
Pierre frowned as he listened to her.
"If I hadn't acted crazy, your grandfather would've just dumped it all on me. Although I'm the daughterin-law of the Mallory family,
your father has never paid any attention to us, and even your grandpa thinks of me as an outsider. I may have some say in the
Mallory family, but how could I control the company's finances? All the mess you've caused so far, including the kidnapping, is up
to Old Master Mallory to take care of. I could only act crazy. I knew that when he realized that no one else would clean up your
mess, he'd take matters into his own hands," reasoned Karen.
Pierre was still curious.
Old Master Mallory was not particularly happy when he mentioned Karen.
It would have been understandable if Karen pretended to be crazy for just a few hours a day, but how long was she able to
pretend?
Old Master Mallory said that she spent almost 18 out of 24 hours a day making all sorts of noises in the bedroom.

The level of insanity was unbelievable.
At that time, Pierre even felt that if Old Master Mallory had not been worried about the reputation of the Mallory family, he might
have sent Karen to a psychiatric hospital.
It was their reputation that stopped him.
Pierre also recalled that Karen had experienced extreme mood swings some time ago, and her mental state had been poor,
especially after she got mad at Percy.
According to the maid at home, Karen would either suffer from insomnia or get nightmares in her sleep. Either way, it was not
good.
However, she was not insane.
Karen could sense that Pierre did not believe her, so she quickly said, "You still don't believe me? If I really was as crazy as Old
Master Mallory described, would I have recovered this fast?"
Pierre agreed. Karen did not look like someone who was mentally unstable.
She was speaking logically and explaining why she acted that way during that time, and a mentally unstable person would not
get better all of a sudden.
Even if Karen became like that because she was worried about him, she would not be able to act as if nothing happened right
after finding out that he was fine.
Pierre nodded. "As long as you're fine, Mom."
Karen looked at Pierre's haggard face and sighed. "Old Master Mallory ordered the maids at home to not mention you in front of
me to not affect my mood. I thought you were still kidnapped, so I went even crazier. Today, Old Master Mallory said you were in
the hospital, so I stopped acting. I immediately came to the hospital to see you."
Pierre frowned. She stopped acting?
Now, he was starting to think that acting crazy was not such a bad idea.

"Mom, now that you're fine, will Grandpa ignore me?" Pierre had not forgotten what Old Master Mallory had promised him when
he got mad.
Now, it seemed that Old Master Mallory's actions were just to ease the dilemma he was in.
Besides, he was making a fuss in the hospital while Karen was making a fuss at home.
In the end, Old Master Mallory had to suffer from both their actions.
Old Master Mallory was caught in the crossfire, so he went to the hospital to talk to him.
Karen shook her head. "What are you afraid of? Even if I'm not crazy, Old Master Mallory will help you deal with this! Don't worry,
just get well soon. Old Master Mallory will have things taken care of when you're discharged."
Although Old Master Mallory had retired for many years, he was still capable.
He was rich and well-connected.
He was definitely able to clean up this mess Pierre had caused.
Unless Old Master Mallory wanted Pierre to go to jail, there was no way he would ignore this matter.
Right now, Old Master Mallory was keeping Pierre's recuperation a secret, so it did not seem like he would ignore his grandson.
Pierre nodded. Just three months.
"Mom, thank you for everything you've done for me during this time." Pierre's words of appreciation were sincere.
