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

Louis nodded. He understood the undertone of Luke's words.

Luke was telling him not to be concerned about borrowing less from him and spending all his cash on this jewelry

set as it would affect his family.

"Brother, don't worry. I know what to do," replied Louis. He would not let his family suffer just to satisfy Susan,

especially Thea. He needed to spend a lot of money on her now.

"It's getting late. Get some rest." Luke patted Louis' shoulder and left the balcony.

Louis watched Luke leave from behind. Luke had always been taking up responsibilities since he was a little boy.

Until now, Luke was still the well-qualified big brother in Louis' heart.

Louis recalled that when he was still young, the relatives of the Crawford family were unhappy that Allison brought

Luke back home. They often spoke ill about the mother and son in front of him. They even told him that he had to

be better than Luke. Otherwise, they would lose everything they had.

Although he was not as outstanding as Luke was now, he was living the life he wanted. Besides, he did not lose

everything because of it.

The brothers got along pretty well.

Louis smiled at the thought of what Pierre told him two days ago. He had tried to make mischief between him and

Luke. At this moment, he thanked Luke while watching him leave from behind.

Louis thanked Luke for being willing to be his brother.

Luke did not return to his bedroom immediately after he left the balcony. He headed to the guest room instead.

This was the guest room that Old Master Crawford had asked the maid to clean for Luca to spend the night here.

Luke pondered for a moment and knocked on the door.

“Who is it?” Luca's voice came from the other side of the door.

“It's me,” said Luke.

No sound came from the room after that. A few seconds later, the bedroom door was opened. Luca was in her

pajamas, and she stood at the door to ask, “Mr. Crawford, can I help you?”

"Am I only allowed to talk to you when I have instructions for you?” Luke asked.

Luca felt a little awkward. She always had this feeling that Luke seemed to be dissatisfied with something else. She

shook her head immediately, "No, I didn't mean that...”

She was hoping that she could see Luke every minute and every second of the day, but due to their current

relationship, they were not allowed to do so.

Seeing each other often would only start rumors about them.

“I came to see you," said Luke. He glanced at the bed in the room. The blanket had been laid properly, and it

seemed like there was nothing that Luca needed.

Luca folded her hands and rubbed her hands unconsciously when she heard what Luke said. Then, she turned

around and looked at him. "I'm fine."

"If you need anything, just call the maid with the phone beside the bed and ask them to prepare it for you,"

reminded Luke.

"Alright. I got it." Luca met his gaze, then she shifted her gaze away and let her gaze wander.

Luke opened his mouth as he wanted to say something more, but he noticed Luca's uneasiness. It melted his heart

at once.

He knew what Luca was worried about.

She was worried that the old master or Susan would see them standing so close to each other. Also, she was

worried that the others would speculate about their relationship and stop them.

She had tons to worry about.

Luke had been concealing his knowledge of her identity from her. He was not sure whether it was right or wrong to

let her suffer like that.

However, they had made it this far. He had to continue regardless of the choice he made was right or wrong. The

only way to end this was to figure out who was the mastermind behind Luca.

That way, Luca would be able to stay by his side without having to worry about anything.

"Go to sleep. Goodnight." Luke was a little disappointed, but he turned around and left.

Luca secretly let out a sigh. She knew Luke wanted to tell her something, but if he said it out loud, things would

change.

That was why Luca would not give him the chance to say it to her.

In the middle of the night.

Luca could hardly sleep. Her body was burning, and she unconsciously placed her hand on her forehead. There was

sweat all over her palm.

However, the temperature on her forehead was normal.

She stretched her legs uneasily and let out a moan. Before she was completely awake, she knew there was

something wrong with her. This feeling...

Her body seemed to have lost control, and the heat rushed to her head as though every cell in her body was

affected. Luca forced herself to sit up on the bed. She groped in the dark, looking for the switch.

Luca turned on the lights in her bedroom. She narrowed her eyes once the lights were lit, and it took her a while to

come back to her senses.

She felt that something was wrong with her. It was as if she had been given that kind of drug.

However, the symptoms did not seem like it. Luca pondered for a few minutes and found a term to describe how

she was feeling now—heaty...

Besides, the heat came from the body's primitive reflexes. It did not seem like she was being controlled by a drug.

“What's wrong?" Luca could not help but frown. Had she been alone for too long?

However, she never had this feeling when she was on the Island of Despair for such a long time. Why did it

suddenly...

Luca clasped the bed sheet helplessly. It looked like tonight would be another sleepless night for her.

Knock, knock. There were knocks on the door. The sound that rang in her ears stirred up the restless cells in her

body.

"Who is it?" Luca asked, secretly hoping that the person outside the door was the man she was thinking of.

"It's me." Luke's voice came from the other side of the door.

Luca frowned. It was him. The moment Luca heard his voice, she had the urge to rush out and hug him. However,

her rationality was stopping her from doing so.

"I'm already in bed, Mr. Crawford." After that, Luca bit her lip, worried that she would make some weird noises.

After knowing that Luke was outside the door, her body trembled uncontrollably. The rush of sensations crawled

across her body, asking her to open the door and leap into the arms of the man outside the door.

Luca even had the urge to take a cold shower.

However, it was winter now. She would catch a cold if she showered now.

Besides, she was living with the kids. She would easily spread it to the kids if she caught a cold. That was why she

had to endure it.

The sound coming from outside the door seemed to have stopped.

There was disappointment in Luca's eyes. Did Luke leave already.

Luca shook her head immediately. What was she thinking of? Even though he was Luke, she could not just.

She could not imagine what the consequences would be if the two of them got that far.

While Luca was struggling, there came Luke's voice outside the door again. He sounded like he was in pain this

time. "I think I'm sick. I don't feel so well."

Sick?

"Mr. Crawford, I'm. not a doctor." Luca clutched the bed sheet and insisted.

"I can't wait till the doctor's here. Luca, you're the only one who can help me.." Luke leaned against the wall beside

the door and knew that it must be the tonic he drank when he was having dinner.

Nothing happened even a few hours after he drank the tonic. He did not expect that he would feel a little off in the

middle of the night.

The tonic the old master gave them was too strong.

Luca could hear the weakness in his voice, and she could not bear to leave him like that. Hence, she went to open

the door.

Luke rushed into her bedroom once the door was opened. Before Luca could do anything, Luke flung his arms

around her with his body against hers.

“Luca, I feel sick." Luke held Luca close to his chest like a child hugging his pillow, telling her how awful he felt.

Luca's mind had gone blank. There was no doubt that the hug was arousing the desire in her that she could hardly

suppress.
