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

After Nina received a message from Percy, she quickly cleaned up a guest bedroom in the villa and laid out the beddings and
blanket. She also prepared a new set of toiletries.
Then, she nervously waited for Percy and Karen in the living room.
She knew that Percy had gone to the hospital to deal with Pierre's matters, but she did not expect him to bring Karen back.
Something must have happened.
Nina grew anxious when it crossed her mind. She knew that Karen did not like her. Their previous meetings had always ended
on a sour note. Facing her gave Nina a lot of pressure.
However, Karen was Percy's mother, after all. There was no way she could refuse to meet her and get along with her.
The moment she chose to marry Percy, she had chosen to stand by his side. No matter how difficult the Mallory family's matters
were, she was determined to face them together.
In marriage, it was not about the husband carrying the load alone, but it was about sharing the burden together.
As Nina thought Karen might intentionally nitpick and make things difficult later, she quickly went to the kitchen to prepare some
flower tea, coffee, and freshly squeezed juice.
She would rather make extra preparations than face Karen's criticism.
With everything ready, she sat on the sofa for a while. Then, she heard noises coming from outside.
Percy had returned.
Nina immediately stood at the entrance and watched as Percy walked in, accompanied by Karen. Her heart skipped a beat at the
sight of Karen.
After Karen saw her, her expression was filled with disgust. She secretly let out a cold snort after she heard Nina say, “Good
evening, Madam Mallory."
When she heard Nina address her as Madam Mallory, Karen was startled for a moment. However, she immediately thought that
it was acceptable.

Even though Nina and Percy had a legally recognized marital relationship, what could be done with that? The Mallory family did
not acknowledge their marriage. What difference did it make even if their marriage held legal status?
If Percy compromised with the Mallory family in the future, the couple would get a divorce!
Percy could not help but frown slightly when he heard Nina addressing her as Madam Mallory, but then he realized that if Nina
called Karen Mom, Karen would not acknowledge it either.
Hence, it was better to address her as Madam Mallory without trying to please her.
Percy did not marry Nina to make her please the Mallory family. Besides, there was no need for the woman he loved to appease
the Mallory family.
Their disapproval would not affect their marital relationship.
Nina did not feel embarrassed when Karen remained silent. She was already mentally prepared to be put through the wringer.
Moreover, it was even better if Karen did not speak. Nina was only being ignored, without having to endure any unnecessary
difficulties. She took out a pair of new disposable slippers and placed them on the floor.
Karen looked at her with arrogance. She got out of her shoes expressionlessly, then put on the slippers.
Percy's brows furrowed even more. After he changed his shoes, he took Nina's hand and asked, “Why aren't you in bed at this
hour?"
He informed Nina because he wanted her to be mentally prepared that Karen would be coming, not to serve her.
Nina smiled and replied, "I can only sleep peacefully when you're back."
Then, her gaze fell on Karen again. "Madam Mallory, would you like something to drink? We have fresh juice, flower tea, and
coffee at home."
Karen let out a cold snort and answered, "I always have a glass of milk before going to bed."
Milk? Nina was not prepared for this. Fortunately, the part-time maid would always prepare a variety of ingredients in the fridge,
including milk. She replied, "Sure. Please take a seat and give me a moment."

Then, Nina walked toward the kitchen. She heard Karen say, "I don't like it too cold or too hot. I only drink milk that's heated to 40
degrees. An increase or decrease of just one degree is a no for me."
Nina's steps faltered for a moment. She was well aware of this blatant provocation. She turned around and replied, "Alright. Just
a second."
Then, Nina met Percy's disapproving gaze. She gently shook her head to reassure him that everything was fine.
After Nina walked into the kitchen, Percy gave Karen a warning look. "If you want to stay here peacefully tonight, be quiet and
stop causing trouble for others."
Karen, feeling indignant at his defense for Nina, could not hold back her anger.
How did this woman with an average appearance bewitch Percy into defending her like this?
There were so many women with better figures and prettier faces, yet Percy did not spare them a glance.
Karen clenched her fists tightly and sneered. "What's the matter? Now that you have that wretched woman, have you forgotten
that I'm your mother? Those who don't know about this must think that I'm so mean to you that you partnered with an ordinary
woman to go against your own biological mother."
No matter what, she was Percy's mother. It was an unchangeable fact even if he rebelled against his family.
Percy's eyes turned cold and emotionless as he warned her, "If you want to act up, then go back to Mallory Manor." "What
makes you think you can kick me out? Percy, I'm staying here tonight! If you dare to kick me out, I'll expose your secrets to the
police and the media," declared Karen as she sat firmly on the couch. She did not back down even after hearing Percy's
warning.
Karen was his mother. She refused to believe that she could not control him!
Nina walked back into the living room with a glass of warm milk in her hands and overheard what Karen said. Her heart skipped
a beat. She pursed her lips, handed the milk to Karen, and said, "Madam Mallory, here's your milk. It's been heated to 40
degrees."
She had taken extra care to measure the temperature, trying to avoid any potential nitpicking from Karen.
The milk was heated to 40 degrees, not a degree more and not a degree less.

Karen let out a cold snort when she saw the glass of milk. She refused to take it. “I'm not drinking that.” Nina was taken aback.
Percy's expression grew even darker. His thin lips almost formed a straight line. He was on the brink of exploding.
Nina subtly shook her head at him, signaling him not to lose his temper to prevent things escalating.
At the same time, she could not help but worry. She thought to herself, ‘Did Percy's mother uncover some of his secrets?'
Otherwise, why would she threaten him that she would inform the police and the media?
Percy was unable to contain himself any longer. He issued another warning, "Mother..."
Karen rolled her eyes. Her legs were crossed elegantly, maintaining the posture of a sophisticated lady. However, her words
were dripping with malice. "Who knows if she has added anything into the milk? It's better to avoid anything offered by such a
person."
Nina's temples throbbed. She knew Karen was doing this on purpose, and she found it increasingly hard to suppress her
emotions.
Still, she was Percy's mother, and Nina had to endure it. She married Percy knowing that she would not have the approval or
blessings of the Mallory family. Hence, she had mentally prepared herself for this.
"It's getting late. How about getting some rest?" Nina knew that no matter what she offered, Karen would not eat or drink it. That
was why she suggested this instead. At least Karen would stop giving her a hard time once she fell asleep. "The guest bedroom
is all set up for you. I've prepared a new set of toiletries as well as new clothes."
Even though she was aware that Karen and the Old Master Mallory did not like her, she prepared all of this at home just in case.
She did not expect it to come in handy today.
The toiletries and clothes she had prepared were in line with Karen's usual standards of living. Nina believed that even if Karen
wanted to be picky, there would not be much to find fault with.
