Chapter 1635 It Would Be Hard To Fool Them

Nina put her phone back in her bag.

She took the initiative to take care of Luca because she saw that Luke was here and she wanted

them to keep a distance from each other.

After she decided to stay here and look after Luca, she realized that she had not prepared anything.

Nina thought for a moment and took her phone out again. She thought of asking Sue to bring her

necessities over when she got off work. That way, she could visit Luca at the hospital as well.

She saw a friend request when she opened her Instagram.

Nina was startled for a while. It was a friend request from Percy. She deleted him when she ended

her toxic relationship with him back then. She did not block him as she thought he would not be

shameless enough to pester her.

However, he had sent her a friend request now.

Did he have anything to tell her?

Nina looked at the friend request. She thought it was probably nothing important since there was

nothing written in the message box.

She did not approve or reject it as she thought it would become invalid after a couple of days.

She would only be focused on taking care of Luca in the next three days.

Nina calmed herself down and put aside the thoughts in her mind. Then, she sent a message to Sue.

She put her phone back into her bag when she saw Sue agreeing to help her.

She could not keep on holding her phone. She would not be able to stop herself from looking at

Percy's friend request if she continued to hold it.

On the other hand.

After everything had happened, Pierre found a place for himself to hide. He knew a lot of people, so

there was someone willing to take him in even though he was in big trouble now.

He sat on a shabby sofa in the residential building with a look of despise on his face.

How did he end up like this?

He would not be hiding in a place like this if not for those people who were looking for him

everywhere. He had many wealthy friends, but it was not safe for him to hide in any of their houses.

After all, the Mallory family knew his friends too. They would look for them first if they were looking

for him.

Hence, Pierre contacted a street gangster and hid in his house.

Percy held his phone and glanced at his current situation. He cursed in a low voice, “Damn it. It's all

that b*tch’s fault.”

Liam, the one who took him in, glanced at him and shook his head. He said, “Mr. Mallory, I have no

idea why you're hiding. You've only kidnapped a woman, and she’s not even dead. You can just ask

the two brothers to take the blame for you and give them more money when the time comes.”

Percy glanced at him. "Indeed, nothing can happen to me even if I kidnapped a woman. The

problem now is that Luke Crawford isn't going to let me go so easily. Besides, the police and the

Mallory family are looking for me as well. The Crawford family is after me too. What can the police

and the Mallory family do to me? I'm only running away from the Crawfords."

“I don't get it. She's just a random woman. How did you offend the Crawford family?” Liam was

confused. He poured a pint of beer for him.

Pierre picked it up and drank a mouthful of beer. Then, he spat it on the ground. "What kind of beer

is this? It tastes awful.”

Liam smiled and explained, “Of course, my beer is incomparable for the ones you usually drank. It's

the end of the month and I'm short on cash. I can only afford this beer.”

“It tastes like sh*t. Don't drink it anymore. Throw this away. I'll bring you out and show you what

good beer tastes like after everything is over.” Pierre was still thinking positively even though he was

being hunted down now. He was waiting for his men to get in touch with the two brothers, Eric and

Derek. He would ask them to take the blame for him.

Who was taking the blame for him did not matter to him either. Luca was fine except for the

wounds on her face.

"Sure thing." Liam also believed that nothing would happen to Pierre, so he treated him well as

though he was God.

Then, he added, "It's a surprise how capable that woman is to be able to make Luke Crawford save

her in person.”

Pierre narrowed his eyes and took his box of cigarettes out of his pocket. He handed Liam a

cigarette and lit up another for himself too. "I did think of it, but it surprised me that Luke seems to

care a lot for her."

Men could understand each other. Thus, Pierre knew how much Luke cared for Luca.

However, the incident this time made him realize that Luke was far more concerned about Luca than

he had expected.

Pierre added, “Previously, the only person who could affect Luke that much was his wife.”

Something crossed Liam's mind. He touched his chin and replied, "How can a normal man be

together with only one woman? I'm guessing something is going on between them, and that's why

Luke got so nervous. But you better be careful after they drop the case. Even though someone will

take the blame for you, there'll be a feud between you and Luke Crawford.”

Pierre sneered. “He's just Luke Crawford. The people in A City are afraid of him, but I'm not.”

Liam gave him a thumbs up and continued to butter him up. “Bravo, Mr. Mallory.”

Pierre's phone rang when he received notifications. He had a wicked grin on his face when he

glanced at his phone.

After Derek and Eric were subdued by the police, they were immediately sent to the hospital. Derek

was not seriously injured, and Pierre's men had already talked to him after impersonating as

doctors.

Money could settle this.

Derek promised that he would take responsibility after everything that happened.

Liam saw the smile on his face and asked, “Mr. Mallory, has it been settled?”

"Money is a good thing, indeed. I promised to give more money to the two brothers and they

agreed to take the blame for the case.” Pierre was not surprised that they were willing to make the

deal.

It did not matter if they were the culprits or an accomplice. They could not escape from going to

prison after getting caught by the police.

This case was not serious either. Even if they were made out to be the culprits, they would just have

to stay a few years longer in prison. They would be able to enjoy themselves with the money given

to them after they got out.

"That's great. Congratulations!" Liam was busy licking his boots. The reason why he listened to

Pierre so much was that many of his businesses depended on Pierre.

He would lose most of his businesses if Pierre had a hard time. Not only did Liam take Pierre in but

he also fawned over him for the sake of his interests.

"Let's see what Luke can do to me when someone's taking the blame for me!" There was a malicious

look in Pierre's eyes, which revealed his hatred for Luke.

He did not expect the plan that he carefully plotted to be exposed that quickly. Hence, he lost the

chance to participate in the tender.

His plan was ruined, and he even got himself in big trouble because of this.

He would never forget this. It was nothing more than just the Crawford family. He would seek

revenge sooner or later.

“You're so capable. What can he do to you? Mr. Mallory, now that those two people will be covering

up for you, you can go home anytime you wish. They don't have any evidence, so they can't do

anything to you,” said Liam.

What he said was right, but the place where they found Luca was indeed his villa.

Pierre knew it would be hard to fool his family.
