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

Chapter 3296 Jean Is Once Again Being Manipulated By Marie

"Now that you've signed that agreement, we can't ask Percy for money anymore!" Jean laid out the harsh truth

neither of them wanted to accept.

Marie heard this and started thinking about ditching the whole mess.

However, she kept a straight face, deciding to play it cool for now and see how the mother and son were going

to handle things.

"I didn't know! What do we do now?" Anna was panicking now. "Con, tell me! What's the plan?"

Marie chimed in, "Why don't we try getting slegal aid? | mean, they set us up first, right? We can't just let

them get away with this!"

Jean thought to himself that Percy definitely covered all bases.

There was no way Percy would waste his ton something pointless, so he definitely had a lawyer look over

that agreement. Otherwise, Percy would not have let Anna sign it in the first place.

Therefore, if they wanted more cash without paying back what they already got, legal aid was probably the only

shot they had.

"Alright, let's do it. Legal aid it is," replied Jean. He was already heading for the door.

Marie tried to follow him, but Anna yanked her back.

"What do you think you're doing? Why are you tagging along?"

Marie, unbothered by Anna's attitude, coldly replied, "I'm the one who found the loophole in the agreement. |

know more about this stuff than you do. If | don't go, are you gonna go instead?"

"Who's gonna cook, then?" Anna shot back, feeling insulted. She knew this whole mess was partly her fault for

signing the agreement.

"You had hands to sign that dumb agreement, didn't you? So, why can't you cook with those shands?" Marie

fired back, clearly fed up. She had never met anyone so dumb.

She could not believe Anna got played over something so trivial.

Anyone with half a brain knew to read the fine print in an agreement. Marie thought Anna was pretty dumb. If

she had been a bit smarter back then, she would not have let herself get screwed over like this.

She would not be missing out on the money either.

Anna's face turned pale white. It was one thing for Jean to blher, but Marie? She had no right!

Who did she think she was to judge her?

If it were not for her, the Langdon family would not be in such a mess.

"Get out of my house!" Anna pointed at the door. "We don't need trash like you here!"

Marie just stared at her with a mocking smile without budging an inch.

Jean lost his patience and snapped, "Enough! Are you done?"

Anna froze and stared at him in disbelief. Was he seriously taking Marie's side?

"Alright, Mom. You stay here and make lunch. You're always complaining about Marie's cooking anyway. Marie,

you're coming withto the legal aid office," added Jean.

Even though Marie was not exactly an expert, she knew a bit more than the rest of them. Even though Jean had

studied abroad, years of slacking off had left him clueless. Especially about anything to do with the law.

Thus, he was practically no better than a street thug now, totally out of his depth.

Anna huffed. "Jean, if you keep ignoring me, that woman's gonna ruin you one day!"

Jean ignored her and grabbed the agreement before heading out with Marie to find legal help.

They were totally broke now, so the only option left was to hit up slegal aid or charity. After all, paying for a

lawyer was beyond their means.

An hour later, Jean walked out of the legal aid office looking like a kicked puppy.

"Hey, don't sweat it, Jean. There might still be hope." Marie tried to lift his spirits, but she

knew deep down that things were already set in stone.

There was no way this situation was going to change.

"It was all her fault!" Jean wished he could tear that agreement to shreds like it never existed.

Still, he knew better. Every agreement had two copies.

Just because Anna did not care about it did not mean Nina and Percy were unbothered. They probably had their

copy stashed away safely.

Marie thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "You can't just blyour mom. | mean, you weren't

exactly in a sound state of mind at the time, were you?"

"What's that supposed to mean? If it's not her fault, is it mine?" Jean shot back, glaring at

her.

If only Anna had waited until he was more alert to sign that agreement, none of this would have happened.

"Not really. It just shows how ruthless Nina is. You guys are supposed to be her closest

family, yet she's scheming against you." Marie deliberately passed the blto Nina. "That brat never has

never seen us as family! If it weren't for us, would she even have had a shot at joining the Mallory family? And

now, she's pulling this crap on us? I'm not letting this slide!" Jean fumed. He was furious enough to want to take

Nina down with him.

However, it was just a passing thought.

Marie sensed his rage and decided to fan the flames.

"Right? If she really cared, wouldn't she just hand you guys a building instead of cash? You could live on one floor

and rent out the rest. That way, you and your mom wouldn't have to worry about anything.

"But she turned her back on you the moment she married into wealth. She's totally

ungrateful."

The more Marie went on, the angrier Jean got.

Finally, he exploded. "Let's go mess with that brat right now!"

"Jean, listen to me!" Marie interrupted. "You can't just go to her head-on for money."

"Why not?!" Jean was all fired up, thinking that Nina owed them money and not giving it was a crime. He was

practically losing his mind.

"The Mallory family is loaded. We can't compete with them. But we can still play it smart,"

explained Marie.

"What's the plan?" Jean treated her like his military advisor.

"I'll fill you in." Marie leaned in and whispered her schin his ear.

Jean listened and narrowed his eyes.

"It might get us the cash, but there's a lot of risk involved," said Jean.

"We can't live like this! Your mom gave20 dollars to buy groceries today. What can you even get for 20

dollars? This isn't the countryside. We're in A City! | was too embarrassed to say it, but all | could buy was a few

eggs and a head of cabbage. You've probably had enough

of that stuff by now, right?"

"Yeah." Jean's gaze darkened with a calculating look.

"Look, she's still your sister. As long as you don't hurt her, they're not going to mess with you once you get that

money," Marie continued.

"Do you really think they'll throw you into prison just because of that? They're not that

stupid. If they did do that, your mom would be under their care. Just think about it. They're

setting you up to get rid of your mom since she's just a liability considering her ailing body.

They won't do anything to you."

The more Jean listened, the more he realized Marie was making sense.

They were not going to do anything to them.

Instead, they were going to drop scash in their pockets.

With that money, their lives would get a whole lot better.

"Alright, let's do this!" Jean clenched his fists, making the decision. "I'm gonna rally

everyone up right now!"

No matter what, getting that money was the top priority!

Percy and Nina had no clue that Jean was once again being manipulated by Marie, plotting to

take action against them.

After they cback from Crawford Manor, they grabbed their bags, which they had

already packed, and headed to the airport.
