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

Tommy's eyes were wide as he tilted his head sideways and stared at her for a long while before mumbling, “It's

cold outside, Ms. Luca. You should dress more warmly before you head to work."

"Alright." Luca felt warm and fuzzy inside when she saw how her son was concerned about her. The corners of her

lips curled into a bright smile as she ruffled his hair.

The fear she had felt before this was slowly fading away now that she had been ruminating over this for about an

hour. She was no longer in the state she was when she returned.

Now, the most important thing to do was find out if her stalker was one of Pierre or Matysh's men.

Luke did not say anything as he observed their interactions. Lanie and Rainie had pulled him aside when he

returned and told him how Luca had been acting oddly when she returned.

The children and Nina were still present, which made it unsuitable for him to get a better idea of what was

happening. Thus, he was in no rush to do so.

Aunt Neile brought the food over to the table.

The three adults and children finished their meal.

After that was the time for the children to watch TV.

Naturally, the responsibility of checking each child's homework fell on Luke now that he had returned. Luca chose

to go upstairs after watching Luke sit in the living room and check each child's homework.

"The fruit platter is ready, Luca. Do you want some?" Nina asked as she helped Aunt Neile bring out a plate of fruit.

"It's alright. You guys can enjoy it," Luca said as she walked upstairs. She wanted to experiment.

A thoughtful look appeared in Nina's eyes as she watched Luca walk off. She turned to look at Luke and saw that he

was just about to walk upstairs after finishing checking each child's homework.

In a low voice, she said to him, "Luca wasn't in the best state when she returned."

"I know," Luke said calmly as he glanced upstairs.

Nina frowned. From the tone of his voice, those who were not in the know would have thought that he and Luca

were strangers.

However, last night, she had watched as he entered Luca's room immediately after returning home.

"Is it Pierre Mallory?" Nina asked.

"No." Luke knew what she was worried about. He usually refused to answer such questions and only did so this time

because Nina was Percy's fiancee.

“Then..." Nina frowned. Who else would frighten Luca so much other than Pierre?

She immediately corrected herself. No, Luca was not frightened. She was just distracted.

Who was it?

Who else had a grudge against Luca?

“Don't get involved in this," Luke said. To him, Nina was a powerless woman who still needed Percy's protection

because she could not even face the Mallory family herself.

If she got into Luca's mess now, she would not even be able to protect herself.

Nina had had similar experiences in the past, which meant that she should not get involved no matter what.

“What do you mean by that?!" Nina protested, her jaw clenching when she noticed how Luke seemed to think she

was in the way.

“You'll be helping Luca by not getting involved," Luke said as he continued walking upstairs. It was something that

even a child could understand, but Nina could not.

If Nina got involved, there was no doubt Matysh would use the fact that Nina was Luca's Achilles heel to force her

into submission.

Such incidents had happened in the past, and Luke did not want to go to the trouble of having to save Nina.

The way he spoke helped Nina immediately understand what was going on. Hurrying forth, she caught up to him

and said, “I'm just worried about Luca. Friends should be concerned about one another. I don't blame you for failing

to understand me, but you shouldn't stop me."

Luke paused and frowned as he looked at her.

Had Percy protected her so well that she had begun thinking she could protect others?

“Keep worrying about the Mallory family's issues. Ignore Luca's problems," Luke repeated. It was good that Nina

was concerned about Luca, but there was also no denying there were issues that she could not take care of.

On the contrary, he could now understand why Luca had such agility after confirming that she had previously been

captured by men from the Island of Despair.

Most people would be no match for her after she went through her training at the Island of Despair.

However, what he was most worried about was that Mathys would go to all ends and use despicable methods to

attack her. He might send out even more men after her.

So what if Luca was so physically agile that she could fight 10 people on her own? Luke was most worried that she

would not be able to anticipate backstabbers.

If Luca were to fall into Mathys' hands, there was no way he would be like Pierre, who had captured Luca because

he wanted information in exchange.

Mathys had always wanted Luca.

Nina's brows furrowed together when she heard Luke mention the Mallory family.

He was right. Her biggest problem now was the Mallory family.

If she wanted to remain with Percy, she would have to face the Mallory family. Although there were signs of the

news dying down now, there was still no way they would agree to their relationship.

They had never agreed to their relationship in the first place, so what were the chances they would agree after the

media published such a story?

Nina pouted as she walked upstairs.

Then, she walked toward the guest room as Luke watched her.

Luke's mind was fully consumed with thoughts about Luca, and he had no plans to say anything else although Nina

was Luca's best friend.

After all, Nina was Percy's girl. She had someone to protect her, and there was no need for an outsider to worry

about her.

Luke first knocked on Luca's bedroom door and guessed that she was conducting an experiment in the study when

no one answered.

Thus, he walked to the study and knocked on the door.

"Nina?" Luca asked from inside the study.

“It's me," Luke replied.

Luca was stunned. She placed the test tubes on their corresponding racks before walking over to open the door.

"Can I help you, Mr. Crawford?"

Luke took the chance to walk into the study and close the door.

The mansion might be his, but the study was Luca's to use because she had moved in earlier.

He had no objection to that as well. After all, there was no fixed rule that office work must be done in a study.

However, Luca's situation was different. She needed a dedicated space to conduct her experiments.

He rarely entered this room.

He took a look around the study. Lab equipment of all sizes was placed here, and it conjured up memories of the

lab Luca had previously rented.

The equipment here was not compatible for conducting experiments on the fungus she was infected with before,

which was why she rented another lab to conduct her experiments.

What experiment was she conducting now?

"What happened today?" Luke did not ask her about her experiments because that was not a field that he belonged

to.

"I was stalked while on my way home from work," Luca replied.

"Did they attack you?" Luke asked as he glanced up and down Luca's body. She seemed fine and uninjured.

However, he did not trust what met his eyes after what had happened in the past.

Luca had seemed perfectly fine in the past when in reality, there were two large, infected knife wounds on her

waist.

Even so, she managed to act as if nothing had happened to her.

"They didn't attack me. All they did was follow my car from a distance." Luca shook her head as she began

describing what had happened.
