Pierre's deep gaze stared at Percy as he left. "You'll have it coming."
Although the Mallory family was pissed that Percy and Nina were together, they had never thought of forcing him to submit.
After all, everyone at the Mallory Corporation looked up to Percy. Old Master Mallory realized that and would not change the CEO at will.
Pierre was waiting for his opportunity.
A chance to shake Percy's place in the Mallory family.
The opportunity had come.
Pierre looked at Madam Mallory, who was lying on the bed. He picked up his phone, walked out of the ward, and called Old Master Mallory.
"Grandpa, I just arrived at the hospital. The doctor said that her condition is terrible. She was so angry that she had a hypertensive crisis. She'll have to take antihypertensive drugs in the long run. She can't get mad, or she might end up in another crisis and risk bursting her blood vessels," he updated Old Master Mallory on Madam Mallory.
He did not make up anything. The doctor said those words exactly.
Although, the doctor also said that it was not dangerous as long as she took her medicine on time and got tested yearly.
However, he did not mention any of that to Old Master Mallory.
"Mm, I'm going to head to the hospital now." Old Master Mallory said calmly when he heard that his daughter-in-law was in a seemingly critical condition.
"Grandpa, the weather outside is not the best. You don't have to run around. I'll be here to take care of her." Pierre did not want Old Master Mallory to come.
"Okay, tell me right away if something happens." Old Master Mallory thought to himself that Piere was right. He would not be much help even if he went to the hospital.
"Okay, I will," Pierre replied.
"Is Percy at the hospital?" Old Master Mallory asked.
"He left when I arrived. Mom hasn't woken up yet. I have to stay in the hospital. When she wakes up, I'll get her professional care." Pierre deliberately downplayed Percy's situation because he knew that it would get Old Master Mallory even angrier.
"Hmph, I see." Old Master Mallory was even angrier, just as he expected.
Pierre smiled after he finished the call.
'No one cares about Percy anymore. He has nothing to fight against me! Mallory Corporation, Nina... They're all mine!'
Pierre went to the nurse's station and arranged a caregiver for Madam Mallory.
He did not intend to take care of Madam Mallory wholeheartedly. After all, it was more convenient to pay for a caregiver.
The nurse glanced at the computer screen and said with a smile, "Hello, Mr. Percy has arranged a caregiver for Madam Mallory."
"He already did it?" Pierre frowned and then said, "Replace whoever he hired! I want the best caregiver in this hospital. I'm happy to pay."
"The caregiver that Mr. Percy hired is the best in our hospital. Are you sure you want to replace her?" The nurse confirmed with him. She was puzzled.
A haze of anger flashed in Pierre's eyes.
'Percy may think that he's meticulous, but does he think that he can grasp onto everything that he has now? How innocent!'
"Sir, do you still want to change to another caregiver?" The nurse confirmed with him again seeing that he did not answer.
Pierre said coldly, "No, we'll keep her."
"Okay, the caregiver will arrive at the ward in half an hour. Please stay in the ward with the patient until then," the nurse said. The caregiver was the best and most popular in the hospital, she could only come after she was done attending to her previous patient.
"Okay." Pierre returned to the ward and as soon as he sat down, he heard Madam Mallory moaning, "Ugh..."
He immediately stood up and walked to the side of the hospital bed. "Mom, you're awake!"
Madam Mallory opened her eyes slightly. She closed her eyes when she saw that it was Pierre. "Pierre..."
"Mom, I'm here," Pierre remembered the doctor's instructions and pressed the nursing bell.
"Pierre..." Madam Mallory was feeling unwell and called out his name again.
"Mom, don't worry. The doctor is on his way." Pierre felt that Madam Mallory had something to say to him, but she was not in the best condition to talk.
Madam Mallory listened to him and fell silent.
The doctor on duty came in and saw that the patient had woken up, so he gave her a simple examination. "The patient's blood pressure is stable, and all the indicators are normal. There's nothing to be concerned about."
"She looks like she's feeling uncomfortable. Are you sure that she's fine?" Pierre asked skeptically. "I'm worried. Ask Dr. Park to come to examine her."
"Dr. Park is in an operation," the doctor said helplessly. His expression was a little unsightly as he took pride in being a manager-level doctor. Although his medical skills and popularity were not as high as Johann's, he was more than qualified to check and examine these patients in the VIP wards.
Pierre's mood suddenly turned ugly.
Johann did nothing but treat Madam Mallory while Percy was around.
When Percy was absent, Johann was in the operating room and arranged for a doctor as such for his mother.
"The patient has never had high blood pressure before, so it's normal for her body to feel weak and experience a little dizziness after a hypertensive crisis. The symptoms usually disappear within an hour, so we'll keep her under observation. There's nothing to worry about," the doctor continued to explain. He could not afford to offend a wealthy family like the Mallory family and could only explain the situation to him patiently.
"Pierre, help me up..." Madam Mallory did not feel uncomfortable anywhere in her body except that she felt as though she had been drained of all her energy.
Pierre frowned and looked at the doctor. "Did you hear that?"
The doctor sighed helplessly and shook the bed. "Madam Mallory, if you feel dizzy, you have to tell me."
Madam Mallory leaned against the pillow until she sat up by grabbing the side railings along the bed. She opened her eyes slightly and said, "Pierre, pour me a glass of water."
Pierre quickly poured her a glass of water, handed it over, and said, "Mom, be careful. Don't choke on it."
Madam Mallory took a sip of water and felt that it was not enough, so she took the glass in his hand and finished everything.
Pierre took the empty water glass and asked with concern, "Mom, are you feeling better?"
"Mm, I feel much better now," Madam Mallory leaned on the pillow and glanced at the doctor. It was inconvenient to speak openly with outsiders around, so she said to the doctor, "Please leave the ward. We'll ring the bell if there's anything."
"Okay, Madam Mallory. Good day." The doctor left the ward.
"Mom, have a good rest. The caregiver will arrive later." Percy saw how weak Madam Mallory seemed and made sure that he did his window dressing.
"How can I rest..." Madam Mallory paused and looked at him. "Where's your brother?"
"He left when he saw me." Pierre tucked the quilt up a little as he said, "Maybe something happened."
"What can happen to him..." Madam Mallory's tone was full of disgust. Although Percy was one of her own, she was utterly disappointed with him after the few incidents.
"Mom, what's going on? Why did you suddenly faint and have a hypertensive crisis? The doctor said that you have to closely monitor your blood pressure moving forward. Otherwise, you'll be prone to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases." Pierre asked on purpose.
