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

After she did everything, she went back to her bedroom to rest. However, she heard the noises of a car driving in

and the engine turning off.

Luke had come back...

Luca made her way down the steps. When she stepped on the curtail step, she happened to see Luke walking into

the house. He looked cold as he closed the door.

Luke frowned when he saw her and asked, "It's late. Why aren't you sleeping yet?"

“I was going to sleep, but I heard the sound of your car..." Luca looked at Luke's face. He still looked energetic, but

she had no idea if he had his dinner already.

She asked, "Mr. Crawford, I saved some broccoli chicken casserole for you. Do you want some?"

Luke did not have his dinner, but it was well past dinner time. He was not feeling hungry either. However, when

Luke heard Luca asking him that, he asked her, "You made it?"

"Yes. It only takes five minutes to reheat, then you can have it," said Luca, remembering that Luke had a weak

stomach.

"Alright. I'll have it," replied Luke.

Luca heard him and trotted to the kitchen, taking the broccoli chicken casserole out.

Even though she had tried to keep it warm, the food still turned cold as it had been a few hours.

Luca placed the food in the oven and set the timer. She thought that Luke was probably starving, but she did not

prepare any soup today. Hence, she got him a glass of warm milk.

Luca held the glass of milk, headed to the dining room, and put it on the dining table. "Mr. Crawford, I didn't make

any soup today. You can have some warm milk first."

Luke sat on the chair and took the glass of milk that Luca had prepared for him. He took one sip after another,

enjoying the taste of the milk.

It was only a glass of ordinary milk, yet Luke was drinking it as though he was drinking wine or coffee. Luca's face

reddened as she watched him.

She had always been secretly obsessed with Luke's elegance.

When Luca heard the oven's timer ringing, she strolled to the kitchen immediately to get the heated food out of the

oven. "Mr. Crawford, is it enough? I can make a grilled cheese sandwich if it's not enough for you to eat."

"It's enough," answered Luke. He knew Luca was worried that he had been starving the whole night and this might

not be enough for him to fill his stomach. That was why she asked him. However, he was no longer as hungry now

even after going without food for so long.

Still, when he smelled the fragrance of the food, Luke felt hungry at once...

As Luca watched Luke quickly finish the food on the dining table, she let out a sigh. Luke had indeed starved the

whole night.

She felt embarrassed just watching him, so she said, "Mr. Crawford, just leave the plate here after you finish the

food. The maid will clean it up tomorrow morning. I'm going upstairs first."

"Sure." Luke nodded. The food Luca prepared could really whet his appetite. He was not hungry at first, but he just

wanted to devour everything on the plate now.

Luca returned to her bedroom and closed the door. She recalled the scene of Luke eating his dinner. Although he

was still graceful, it could be considered as him gobbling up the food.

It must have been really hard for Luke.

For the sake of his children and the Crawford family.

Luca sat on the bed and pondered for a while. She turned off the lights when she heard the sound of someone

climbing up the stairs. Then, she lay down on the bed and closed her eyes.

She seldom relied on sleeping pills to sleep ever since she moved in here.

Even though Luke and her three kids were not beside her, she unknowingly felt at ease. She could sleep well even

without taking the pills.

Luke stood outside Luca's bedroom door for quite some time. Then, he went to the kids' rooms to check on them.

He only returned to his bedroom after that.

He had been guiding the employees in the design department to amend the parts that did not meet the document's

requirements the whole night. He would probably sleep in the office if it was not because he was worried about

Luca and the kids. There were so many other things to do at the moment.

After he made time for Luca and the kids, he returned to his bedroom, turned on the laptop, and continued to work.

The next day at noon.

Luca received another call from Queenie again. Queenie invited her to have lunch together downstairs. Luca felt a

little unpleasant at the thought of what had happened yesterday. She planned to turn Queenie down. "Mrs. Norman,

I'm sorry. I'm quite busy today—"

"Luca, I know you don't like Enoch. Don't worry. I'll be meeting you alone today. And I won't be speaking on behalf of

anyone either. I just wanted to apologize to you," explained Queenie.

Apologize.

Luca let out a sigh in her heart. How could she let her mother apologize to her?

Besides, Queenie probably did not think that she would be so against Enoch either.

"It's alright. Mrs. Norman, how about this? Do you mind waiting for ten minutes? I'll go downstairs as soon as I finish

my work." Luca was afraid that Queenie would continue to talk about Enoch. That was why she did not want to see

her.

However, since Queenie said she would not mention Enoch, then it was alright for them to meet. After all, Queenie

was her mother.

"Alright. I'll wait for you." Queenie sounded relieved.

Luca translated the last paragraph, saved the document, and left the office.

She ran into Luke when she walked out of the office.

"You're going out for lunch?" Luke asked.

"Yes, Mr. Crawford." Luca noticed that Luke was holding a document in his hands. She reckoned that he had just

come up from downstairs.

When she came to work today, she heard the news that Luke had personally guided everyone in the design

department to amend the design draft last night.

Luke was indeed talented at architectural design...

However, Luke was leading a team alone, and he would be the one to complete the important steps.

From the looks of it, he did not seem like the boss but the director of the department.

"Care to join me?" Luke invited her. Things were going smoother than he expected, so that was why he could make

time to have lunch with Luca.

"Uh, Mr. Crawford, I have a lunch date. I don't think it's convenient." Luca politely declined him.

"Who are you going for lunch with?" Luke heard her and began to tense up. Could it be that she was going to have

lunch with the man who had caused her to act strangely recently?

"Mrs. Norman." Luca did not want Luke to misunderstand her. She answered honestly, "She's waiting for me

downstairs."

Luke felt relieved when he heard it was a woman who was going to have lunch with her. It was even his mother-in-

law. He nodded and said. "Go ahead, then."

"What about you.."

"Mr. Doyle will order takeout for me." After that, Luke strolled back into his office.

Luca watched him from behind. Before she had a chance to think, she hurried downstairs to meet Queenie.

Luca came to the restaurant Queenie told her and found her there. She sat opposite Queenie.

Queenie did not lie to her. Enoch was not here this time. Of course, there was no other man too. It seemed like this

was not a blind date.

"Luca, you must be busy." Queenie saw that Luca was slightly gasping for air and thought that she must have

hurried here.

"It's still manageable. It's just that there were some changes in the company's project, so there's more work to do

now," replied Luca. Queenie was Luke's mother-in-law, so it was fine to tell her about it.

"Oh, I'm always asking you out for lunch. Am I disturbing you?" Queenie was worried that her behavior would affect

Luca.

Luca smiled and shook her head. "It's alright, Mrs. Norman. Besides, it's lunch break now. Mr. Crawford won't be

bothered as long as we do our jobs well."
