The man raised his brows and asked, “Then what should we do?”
Pierre did not say anything. He stared at his secretary, who fell back onto the sofa.
“Mr. Pierre?” The man waited for him to say something. He was considered Pierre's sidekick, and he was usually supported by Pierre to help him run some errands.
"Steal the safe box," Pierre spoke.
“Steal it? Sure thing. I’m pretty good at things like this.” The man nodded. He was good at handling these things. Stealing a safe box and increasing some manpower was not difficult for him.
Moreover, that was Pierre's company. Taking the safe box away was not considered stealing it.
Ms. Malone heard their conversation and stopped crying. She reminded embarrassingly, “Mr. Pierre, but the safe box in your office is mounted…”
A hint of oddness flashed across Pierre’s eyes. How did the secretary get hired?
Could it be that the HR department hired her for her looks? Why could she not think wisely?
The man shook his head continuously. They said attractive people were less intelligent. Pierre’s secretary did not look smart at all.
Ms. Malone fell silent when the two of them stared at her. Did she say something wrong?
“Mr. Pierre, if the safe box is mounted, perhaps I can steal the documents in there and destroy them?” The man was talking to Pierre, but he was staring at Ms. Malone.
Even though attractive people were less intelligent, the teary-eyed and innocent look on Ms. Malone’s face managed to evoke his emotions.
Every man would want to sleep with a beautiful woman.
“Yes,” answered Pierre. His malicious gaze fell on Ms. Malone, and he said, “You, go and help him.”
Ms. Malone shivered for a moment. The finger Pierre was pointing at her looked like he would give her another slap on the face anytime. Then, she replied, “Mr. Pierre, I don’t know how… I’m afraid that I’ll be a drag on him.”
“I didn’t ask you to steal. You only have to work together with him and remind him where the surveillance cameras in the office are installed. Try to not let him appear in front of the surveillance cameras. Then, you’ll call the police the next day. Tell them someone broke into the company and stole something,” said Pierre with his eyes narrowed.
“Okay…” Ms. Malone understood what he meant. It would be fine if she did not have to do it herself.
“Boss, should I steal the other documents since I’m stealing something from the office? It’ll make it look real.” The man smirked at the thought that Pierre's company had many valuable things.
He would get rich by stealing things from the finance department.
“Suit yourself.” Pierre threw the bottle of alcohol at the wall. There was a smashing sound, and the glass shattered, breaking into a million pieces. “Bring me another bottle.”
“I’ll get you one.” The man was excited. He was in a good mood when he was given the chance to take anything he wanted in Pierre’s office.
The man brought the whole bottle of liquor and handed another glass to Pierre, “Mr. Pierre, these are the last two glasses I have here. Don’t throw them.”
Pierre grabbed the glasses from him and poured himself a glass of liquor.
He noticed Ms. Malone was still on the sofa. She had yet to recover from the shock, and he chastised, “What are you doing here? You’d better handle this well. Otherwise, you’re going to suffer!”
Ms. Malone immediately stood up. Her body was trembling with fear uncontrollably. “I’ll go now.”
The man followed behind Ms. Malone and left.
Pierre lifted his head and gulped down a mouthful of liquor. After he watched the two of them leave, he picked up the telephone receiver.
“They’re true. I had so much to deal with at that time, so I forgot about some of them.” Pierre did not expect Percy to secretly have another card up his sleeve. Hence, after Pierre settled everything that could be done on the surface, he did not want to continue to be nagged at. That was why he told Madam Mallory that everything was settled.
After that, Pierre started getting busy with work, and he forgot that he had done those things before.
He did not promptly handle them, which made things turn out this way now.
“Pierre, you’re too careless. Things have finally become a big deal.” Madam Mallory heaved a sigh. She initially had high hopes for Pierre, but she did not expect things to get out of hand because of his carelessness.
Pierre could not go home, and he could not turn on his phone either.
“If it weren’t for Percy, who became so heartless, I wouldn’t have ended up like this now. Mom, what a good son you have!” Pierre blamed Percy for everything.
If it were not for Percy, who disregarded their relationship and pushed him over the edge, things would not have gone so wrong.
Madam Mallory listened to what Pierre said. She could not help but frown.
Previously, her youngest son used to be considerate and thoughtful. He would always remember to come back home for family dinners on special occasions no matter how busy he was.
Hence, she favored Pierre more.
As for the trouble Pierre had gotten himself into, even though it was Percy’s fault for being so heartless, if Pierre had not done such things in the first place, he would not have ended up like this now.
It did not matter who was right and who was wrong now…
The most important thing was that she would have to take responsibility for everything Pierre had done on his behalf. There was no way a prisoner could remain in the Mallory family!
