"I'd like to talk about us," said Percy.
"Us? Aren't we just strangers? Percy, can you please get out of my life? If you love her, you should just stay together with her.
But you're back to messing with me now. What are you up to?"
"Her?" Percy frowned. He was eager to know what was on her mind.
Nina sneered and said, "The daughter of the Johnston family, Madison. Didn't you kiss her on the street last night?"
"Who told you that?" When Percy heard her mentioning Madison, he could not stop himself from getting angry. People who knew
him would know that his relationship with Madison was something that was done against his will. Now that the Johnston family
was in trouble, it was easy to know that he was going to break up with Madison sooner or later.
Hence, was it true that Nina had never cared about him? Was she simply not using her brain?
"The photo of you and Madison kissing on the street is all over the news now. Percy, I beg you. I've been your secret lover for
years, and I'm sick of it. Let's just end this since you're not in love with me. I don't have feelings for you either, so stop looking for
me. I'm afraid I'll kill you if you come again!" There was despair in Nina's eyes, and her eyes welled up.
She really could not stand Percy torturing her like this.
What did she do wrong to suffer all these...
Percy said in a cold voice, "I don't know what you're talking about. Nina, after everything I've done, do you still can't see who I'm
in love with? You said I'm not in love with you? Let me prove to you how much I love you!"
Nina widened her eyes. Did he just say that he loved her?
It was as if her brain had been glued. Percy lifted her before she managed to find out what he meant.
She cried out in surprise and punched his back. "Percy, are you out of your mind?! Put me down!"
"I'm not crazy. Since you have the guts to doubt my love for you, then I'll show you how crazy I am over you!" Percy felt himself
getting out of control. He got carried away when he heard what Nina said to reject him.
He lifted Nina and walked into the bedroom. Then, he put her down on the bed.
He was not gentle. Nina's head fell on the mattress. She was stunned, and as she watched the man lean closer to her, she
pushed against his chest with her hands. "Percy, what are you doing?"
"I'm going to show you how much I love you!" Percy grabbed her hands and subdued them singlehandedly. He wanted to be
gentle at first. He wanted her to feel how true his love for her was.
However, the woman refused to listen to him and insisted on pushing him away. It annoyed him so much, so he decided to teach
her a lesson!
Nina turned her face away. They were grown-ups. She knew what the man wanted to do, and she was fighting against him.
"Percy Mallory, you'd better stop it. Otherwise, you'll regret it."
"What are you going to do to me?" There was burning anger in Percy's eyes. What a foolish woman she was!
“I'll sue you for raping me!” said Nina.
"You'll agree to it later." Percy knew her well, and he knew every inch of her body. Besides, he would really hate to hurt her.
Another hand of his caressed her face slowly.
Nina felt a shudder running through her. The man knew her body well. She would not be able to handle it if this continued...
“Don't touch me. I don't want a man who has slept with another woman before!” She defied him.
Percy paused for a moment as his eyes darkened. As someone who never bothered to explain himself to others, for the first
time, he explained himself to her, "I've never touched any other woman other than you. And she was the one who forced a kiss
on me. She's also responsible for releasing the news. I've already let the PR department issue the press release. You'll know
what's going on an hour later."
Nina was startled. Did she force a kiss on him?
Percy was kissed against his will?
She refused to believe that, but the man's gestures did not allow her to think more about it. Her body's reaction was more honest
than her words. She could not help falling into his trap.
She still had feelings for Percy.
An hour later, Nina looked at the news posted on Mallory Corporation's official website. It was about Percy clarifying the news
regarding him and Madison kissing on the street. Then, it was news about him deciding to call off his engagement with Madison.
He was fast. He dropped a bombshell when the reporters were busy reporting how lovey-dovey they were.
Nina let out a sigh and looked at herself in the mirror.
She would not be able to go out if she did not disguise herself.
Percy left after he finished his business with her as he had something else to do. He came so suddenly and left so quickly.
However, before he left, he told her that he would be coming again tonight.
No way. She should not allow him to take advantage of her again.
Nina gave Luca a call. When the call was answered, she asked, "Luca, can I go over to your place to sleep tonight?”
"But I don't have any extra rooms left." Luca said. Although Luke did not come here to spend the night last night, his personal
belongings were all in the maid's room. It would be inappropriate for Nina to sleep there.
"I don't have to sleep on the bed. As long as you agree to it, I can sleep on the couch or the floor. It was comfortable sleeping on
your couch yesterday afternoon," said Nina. Percy would not be able to do anything to her if Luca was there.
She was never his opponent on all counts.
"You're the guest. How can I let you sleep on the couch or the floor?" Luca frowned. She had no idea why Nina would make such
a request.
Was it because of Percy?
She cared about Nina, and she had never missed any news related to the Mallory family. Naturally, she saw the news of Percy
announcing to the public that his wedding was called off.
“What about this? You can come to my place. I have another bedroom here. Come here and keep me company for a few days.
After all, you're still recovering from your injuries. Even if you start going to work, my place is nearer to T Corporation too. Is that
alright?” Nina begged her. She did not have many friends after she got together with Percy.
Besides, Bianca was abroad. Their friendship was not the same as how it used to be either, so she could not help her as well.
Sue was living her blissful family life together with Jason. It was not a good idea for Nina to become the third wheel and disturb
their life.
After much thought, Luca was the only one who could help her.
Luca had no choice but to promise her when she heard her anxious tone. "Alright. Let me pack my stuff and go over to your
place."
"Let me pick you up!" Nina was delighted that Luca had promised to come.
"There's no need to. I can hail a ride there." Luca walked into her bedroom and took her big bag pack out. "Let me pack my
clothes. I'll be there soo."
"Alright." After Nina hung up the call, she sent a message to Sue to ask for leave.
Sue replied to her message: [I didn't receive any news that someone from Mallory Corporation will be coming today but you're
still asking for leave?
