Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3250

It felt like being part of an experiment.

Both he and Pierre were test subjects under different educational methods, and the outcome was yet to be seen.

Karen was startled for a moment, but she understood what Percy meant. “It’s not that I’m biased. It’s just that your grandfather specifically chose you as the heir, so you had a heavy burden and no time to laze around.”

Percy nodded.

Karen continued, “You see, my strictness is what helped you achieve what you have today, isn’t it?”

Percy nodded again.

Karen felt reassured that she had not done anything wrong when she heard that.

It was not about favoritism; it was about raising an heir.

“So now, despite how different we are, I still don’t understand why your heart always seems to be with him—even though I am obviously more capable.” Percy wasn’t particularly needy for maternal affection.

However, he wondered why, despite his efforts, he never received her approval.

Karen was stunned for a moment.

She knew she had been biased.

She had always favored her younger son.

That was common in families with multiple children, but she could not honestly admit her favoritism in the face of Percy’s questioning.

“Pierre is willful. Is it wrong for me to keep a closer eye on him? You, on the other hand, are mature under your grandfather’s guidance, so I pay less attention to you. But Percy, that doesn’t justify your rebellious behavior!” replied Karen, feeling uncomfortable under such questioning.

Percy smirked. “How exactly am I being rebellious?”

“If you weren’t being rebellious, why wouldn’t you follow the family’s arrangements? Why insist on being with that woman?” Karen’s disgust at Nina flared up again.

They should be living together now, but she had not seen that woman even after standing here for so long.

She might still be lounging around!

She really had no sense of manners!

What right did such a woman have to become a daughter-in-law of the Mallory family?

“I chose my own love. That’s not rebellion. Also, why are you here today?” Percy’s tone grew colder. He was not interested in discussing how biased Karen had been in the past.

Karen was caught off guard.

She could not admit that she was here because of a big argument with Pierre, where he blamed her for everything, making her upset and prompting her to see Percy.

It might make Percy think she was looking for comfort.

“I was just passing by and thought I’d check on you,” replied Karen.

Percy asked, “Did you argue with Pierre?”

Karen’s expression froze. “No.”

“Grandpa went to see you?” Percy asked again.

“You knew your grandfather came to look for me?” asked Karen, realizing only then how naïve she sounded.
