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

“Not many. Lanie, you should try." Tommy was worried Lanie would not allow him to eat the cookies, so he moved

the plate toward him.

Lanie turned to look at Luca helplessly.

Luca could feel Lanie's gaze on her. She seemed to understand what he meant.

It was like Lanie was telling her, 'Look at your greedy little son...'

Luca cleared her throat and said, "Lanie, take a few of them. Leave the rest for tonight."

Lanie nodded and took three pieces of cookies.

Tommy was looking at them eagerly and asked, "Ms. Luca, can I take some too?"

Luca looked at the cookie crumbs on the corner of Tommy's lips, and the eager look on his face. It softened her

heart.

She glanced at the plate, and she briefly knew how many cookies Tommy had eaten. If Tommy continued to eat the

cookies, he would not be able to have dinner later, or he might be stuffed.

"Ms. Luca." Tommy tried to act cute again when he saw Luca not saying anything. He wanted to win another chance

to eat more cookies.

Luca thought that it should be fine to let Tommy have another one or two. However, she met Lanie's gaze when she

was about to say something.

Although Lanie did not say anything, Luca felt that he was reminding herself not to spoil Tommy.

Luca had no choice but to make up her mind and reason with Tommy, "Tommy, you've eaten quite a few cookies. I

know you're hungry now, but if you keep on eating, you won't be able to have your dinner. Don't forget I'm the one

making your dinner today."

Even though Tommy wanted more, he compromised instantly once he heard Luca telling him that she would be

preparing dinner. He said, "Okay, Ms. Luca. I won't eat anymore."

The cookies were yummy, but Luca's home-cooked food tasted better.

Luca placed the cookies on a higher table so that the kids would not be able to reach the cookies if they returned to

the kitchen. Then, she said, "Okay. I'm going to prepare dinner now. Kids, head to the living room and wait for

dinner."

Tommy nodded and left together with Lanie.

Aunt Neile watched everything that happened and could not help but exclaim, "Ms. Craw, you sure know how to

handle the kids."

"Huh?" Luca turned around and looked at Aunt Neile.

"I used to work at Crawford Manor. Only Mr. Crawford could handle Young Master Tommy when he was greedy. The

others aren't able to persuade him. He'd simply refuse to give in. Even if Old Master Crawford was there, he would

think of a way or act cute to get what he wanted to eat," said Aunt Neile with a smile on her face. "You're the only

person who can convince Tommy to stop eating other than Mr. Crawford."

Luca shook her head helplessly. She knew Tommy was greedy, but she did not expect Tommy to behave like this in

front of the old master.

Old Master Crawford was the most dignified person in the Crawford family. She was helpless when she imagined

Tommy pestering him and asking for snacks. There was nothing the old master could do even if that was the case.

After all, it was hard to reject Tommy when he acted cutely.

"Is that so?" Luca smiled, put on the apron, and began to make dinner.

Luca had learned from last night's experience, so she cooked fewer dishes today. It was to prevent the kids from

eating too much and it affecting their health.

Luca accompanied the kids to watch their favorite cartoon with them after dinner. Then, she asked them to take a

shower and get ready to go to bed. Luca only returned to her bedroom after she completed everything.

Luca had left her phone charging in the bedroom after she took a nap this afternoon. Then, she headed downstairs

to bake some cookies with Rainie. She forgot she left her phone upstairs.

Luca's heart skipped a beat when she saw there were five missed calls. She tapped on the notification immediately

and realized that all of them were from Luke.

She glanced at the time. It was when she woke up from her nap and went downstairs to bake the cookies with

Rainie.

Luca recalled what Aunt Neile said to her. Could it be that Luke was unable to reach Luca, and that was why he

called Aunt Neile before eventually calling the villa's landline?

It might be possible...

Luca glanced at the time. She did not return his call. Instead, she chose to explain in a message: [I'm sorry, Mr.

Crawford. I left my phone charging in the bedroom. That's why I didn't get to answer your call.]

After the message was sent to him, Luca received a reply from Luke: [Alright.]

It was a simple response with just one word, and it made Luca feel a little upset.

Was he mad at her?

Was he busy with something and that was why he did not have time to reply to her with a longer message?

Luca was still hesitating if she should return his call at first, but she decided not to return his calls when she saw

Luke's simple reply.

Perhaps she should not have explained it to him.

Luca was a little depressed. She received a call from Nina when she was getting ready to take a shower and call it a

night to get ready for tomorrow's work.

“Hey, Nina, what's the matter?" Luca answered the call. She was a little confused. After all, Nina would not be

calling her at this hour if nothing was going on.

"Luca, are you in bed already?" Nina asked.

"Not yet. What's wrong?" Luca asked.

"Um„." Nina hesitated. She needed to ask a favor from Luca, but it was hard for her to bring it up.

"Just tell me if you need anything. I'll do whatever I can to help you." Luca could sense that Nina wanted to ask for

her help, but it was difficult for her to say it since they had not known each other for long.

"Um, I'd like you to help me improve my health and wellbeing," said Nina.

Luca suddenly felt nervous and quickly asked, "Why do you need me to improve your health? Are you feeling

uncomfortable? Have you seen the doctor? Do you have any medical check-up reports?"

Nina could sense that Luca was worried about her on the phone. Luca was not putting on a show. She was truly

worried about her.

It had been a long time since she felt that there was someone who truly cared about her apart from Percy. It

warmed Nina's heart, and she replied, "I'm fine. I know you're good at medical stuff, especially naturopathy, so I'd

like you to help me to improve my health. I'd like to get pregnant..."

"Pregnant?" Luca was dumbfounded. She blinked her eyes in astonishment. "Are you getting married soon?"

Percy and Nina must be planning to get married if Nina was eager to have a baby. Luca felt happy for her. They

finally worked things out and got together after everything they had been through.

Nina replied in a helpless tone, "Not yet."

Luca frowned at once and carefully asked, "Then why do you want to get pregnant all of a sudden?"

There was dead silence on the other end of the line.

Luca took a deep breath. Something came into Luca's mind when Nina told her that they were not getting married

yet.

"Nina, you're telling me the two of you aren't planning to get married yet, but you want to get pregnant. Are you

thinking of..." Luca could no longer continue.

"Luca, I love him so much. And I want to spend the rest of my life together with him. Now that we're together, that's

the only way.." Nina sounded a little depressed. There was nothing she could do, and that was why she came up

with this idea.

Although Nina and Percy were engaged, their relationship was not official.

The Mallory family would think of a way to stop them from getting married. Therefore, Nina wanted a baby. The

Mallory family might change their mind if Nina was pregnant.
