"Nina’s not here?" Percy squinted and looked behind the door to confirm whether Nina was really not here or if she was just avoiding him. He wondered if Nina had gotten Jean to lie on her behalf because she did not want to see him.
He thought about it for a few seconds and felt that it was impossible.
Jean was the kind of man who wanted to make a fortune off his sister. He would never help her to hide. If Nina was here, Jean would offer her to him with both hands.
"She’s not here, Mr. Mallory. Nina has been living with you for the past few years and now looks down on our old house. How can she be here?" Jean said innocently. He spread out his hands to indicate that she was not there.
He used these subtle movements to hide his panic.
He thought that Pierre would just be having a chat with Nina. He did not expect him to be hiding her.
A promiscuous woman came to the door and held Jean's hand, "Darling, who is it?"
"A friend," Jean explained cheerfully. He wanted to pull out his hand but the woman held it tightly.
Percy glanced at the provocative woman, frowned, and said, "If Nina comes back, call me."
"Okay, Mr. Mallory." Jean was secretly relieved when he saw that Percy did not push further.
Between the two Mallory brothers, one of their auras could make someone breathless without lifting a finger while the other was barbaric in his ways.
It was best not to piss off either of them.
As it happened, the two brothers were fighting for Nina. Jean could not do anything about it.
The woman watched Percy leave, her face unable to contain her excitement. "Honey, is that the CEO of Mallory Corporation? I’ve seen him on the news. You know such a powerful person?"
"Didn't I tell you? It's just that you didn't believe me before this. I not only know Percy but Pierre as well. The two brothers are deeply in love with my sister. Do you believe me now?" Jean said cheerfully. He was pleased that he had won himself some brownie points in front of the woman.
"I believe you, dear. You’re so high-toned." The woman looked at him adoringly.
"It's just… she has to choose one of the two. Why can't my sister take both men into her arms?" Jean said. If the two agreed to share, he would not have such a headache.
"I think Percy Mallory is a good choice. He's the CEO of Mallory Corporation," the woman said to herself.
"However, Mr. Pierre is more generous to me, his future brother-in-law." Jean disagreed. He was happy to side with whoever gave him the most money.
He closed the door with his arms around the woman. The matter of Nina's disappearance was set aside.
In Jean’s mind, Pierre loved Nina, so she would not be in danger. At most, she would just physically suffer a little if she did not obey him.
If she went with Pierre’s every command obediently, she would not suffer and would be the happiest woman in the world.
At least, that was what Jean thought. He was not at all worried or guilty.
Percy got back into the car and texted Luke: [She didn't go back to Anna's apartment. I'm going to look into Nina's schedule yesterday.]
After a while, Luke replied: [Arrange it immediately.]
After Luca cleared the table, she heard Luke's cell phone ring. "Did Mr. Mallory text you? Did he find Nina?"
She tried to call Nina just now but her phone was switched off.
"He hasn’t found her," Luke said and frowned slightly. He was instructing Rain and Gale to investigate Nina's movements from the day prior.
He asked them to find out both Nina and Pierre's schedules.
