Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 1358

Chapter 1358 She Was the Exception

There was no reason other than making sure that Nina ate her meals. He had noticed that she would barely eat her breakfast after he left the house.

The maid breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Nina continue eating. "Miss, Sir really cares for you. He saw that you're losing weight, and he asked your mother for the recipes of your favorite dishes. Please eat more. You need to put on sweight."

Nina chuckled dryly when she heard that.

If Percy truly loved her, why would he want to control every aspect of her life?

Percy could not give her what she wanted. She could not feel Percy's love when that was the life he gave her.

After Nina ate the two sandwiches, she stood up and said," I'm done."

The maid nodded and said, "Will you be coming hfor dinner tonight, Miss? Sir askedto make pork chops for you tonight. He said that it's your favorite."

Nina paused. 'Pork chops...'

Indeed, her favorite dish used to be the pork chops that her mother made for her. Cto think of it, it had been many years since she ate that.

However, she could not bring up any feelings of nostalgia when she reminisced about the past.

She had forced herself to eat two sandwiches, and her stomach was uncomfortably bloated. She wanted nothing more than to throw up in the toilet.

"What's wrong, Miss? Don't you want to eat pork chops?

Shall I make grilled fish fillets instead?" The maid noticed the change in Nina's expression and thought that she was in the mood to eat something else.

"No, pork chops are fine. I'll be very busy at work in the company today, and I don't know if I'm coming hfor dinner," Nina said.

"Alright, I'll make pork chops for you then. If you can't make it for dinner, I'll keep them in the fridge, and you can heat it in the microwave," the maid said.

Nina nodded, left the dining hall, and went upstairs.

She wanted to throw up, but she could not do it downstairs. If the maid found out about it, she would tell Percy.

Nina went into the bathroom and hurled into the toilet. After she threw up everything she had eaten earlier, she felt a little better.

Percy had always ordered her to eat all sorts of nutritious food, but he did not know that Nina did not want to eat that at all. Forcing her to eat would only cause her stomach discomfort, and she would eventually throw up all the food that she ate.

Perhaps that was why she had been constantly losing weight.

Nina washed her mouth and looked at her emaciated figure in the mirror. All that was left of her was a skeleton in a sack of skin. She did not know what charms she had such that Percy would not tire of her.

She chuckled self-deprecatingly. She did not think that any man would fall in love with her, let alone Percy, who used to date supermodels and celebrities. Somehow, she was an exception.

She imagined what Percy must have gone through just to take revenge on her.

Nina reapplied the makeup on her face and slowly walked down the stairs to get ready to go to work. She was surprised to see the man sitting in the living room. "Why are you here?"

Jean was not in a good mood. He said, "Mom askedto cand check on you, Nina. Do you know when was the last tyou were home?"

Nina looked at Jean, who spoke and acted like a hooligan, with genuine disgust. Everytshe went home, her mother would ask for money from her and talk about nothing else.

She was willing to take care of her mother, who was plagued with poor health. Unfortunately, she had to pay for Jean's expenses as well.

Back then, Anna needed a liver transplant, and Nina's blood type was not a match. The family placed their hopes on Jean. Nina pulled sstrings so that Jean could be

released a few months early from prison, and he donated a part of his liver to Anna.

Nina had thought that her life would be better after Jean was out of prison; at least her mother would not be always abusing her. She realized that she had been too naive.

The stint in prison did not change Jean's attitude for the better. He was still as lazy as ever. Nina managed to find him a job, but he quit after two days.

Nina hoped that Anna would discipline him, but instead, Anna indulged and pampered him, saying that he was the only son, and he had saved her life by donating a part of his liver. Whenever Jean wanted money, Anna was more than happy to give it to him.

Jean's parents were retired, and their pensions were not enough to cover Jean's voracious appetite for money.

That was why the three other people in Nina's family treated her as an ATM.

Nina had given them money repeatedly, and she realized that she could not escape that fate. Jean would only ask for more and more money to gratify himself. A few days ago, an escort had scammed a huge sum of money from him.

Anna and Jean did not tell her about that, but she was very aware of what was going on.

Jean and Anna should have run out of money but now, which was why Jean cto look for her. He said that he was concerned about her, but she could tell that they only wanted her to go hso that they could ask for more money.

Nina looked at his brother, slumped on the couch, and huffed, "I'm very busy lately. I'll go hand visit Mom when I'm free."

Jean looked at his sister. She was dressed cleanly and modestly, as though she was of a different social class than him. If she had not conspired with outsiders to put him in prison, he should have been in her position!

"What's there to be busy about? You're only a manager in ssmall-tdesign company. You don't earn much, and it's too much work. You should have quit your job and served Mr. Mallory instead. He might give you more money if you do that," Jean said, not knowing how much his words hurt.

Nina was used to hearing those words from Jean, but those words still hurt her like a knife across her heart.

Her family members knew about her relationship with Jean.

If Anna and Jean were someone else, they would have been embarrassed by their daughter and younger sister's status.

However, they coveted Percy’s wealth, and they thought that Nina was able to get Percy to give her more money. They encouraged her to serve her sugar daddy well.

They did not consider Nina's situation, and they did not care that Nina was wasting her body and her youth. All they cared about was money.

"I'll visit Mom when I'm free. I'll have to ask you to leave

now. I'm going to work,’ Nina said sternly.
