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

"Sit down. Let me get it for you," replied Luca. She did not put the snacks she made this morning at the usual spot

where the children took their snacks.

Tommy nodded. He returned to the living room and sat on the sofa.

Rainie lifted her hand, tapped on Tommy's nose with her fingers, and laughed at him, "Tommy, you're a greedy little

boy."

"I'm not. Ms. Luca makes good and tasty snacks.” Tommy stuck out his tongue.

"That's true. Ms. Luca makes the best snacks." Rainie nodded and agreed with him. She could not blame Tommy for

being greedy. Their mother was too good at making their snacks.

Tommy nodded and replied, "Great-grandpa loves them too."

"Tommy, I don't like to eat snacks." Old Master Crawford shook his head and explained.

"But Great-grandpa, I heard you telling Mr. Griffin that you like eating Ms. Luca's homemade food. That's why you

came here to have a taste of Ms. Luca's homemade food." Tommy tilted his head. He had heard what the old

master told Mr. Griffin when they were talking.

Besides, he heard it loud and clear.

"That's not true," denied Old Master Crawford with a stern expression on his face. He would be embarrassed if the

kids knew that he was craving Luca's homemade food.

"I heard it. Mr. Griffin asked you why you were coming here when Grandma had already left, and you told him that

Ms. Luca's homemade food tasted good. You wanted to have a few meals before going back home. After all, there

wouldn't be so many ignorant people coming to visit you this year." Tommy shook his head and said everything he

heard.

Old Master Crawford cleared his throat awkwardly. Although everyone there was his closest family member, he was

the eldest in the family. He felt awkward about getting exposed by a junior.

However, that was indeed what the old master had said. Tommy said everything exactly as it was.

Old Master Crawford was ashamed to let his juniors know that he was craving Luca's homemade food.

"Luca's homemade food does taste good." One sentence from Luke broke the ice.

Lanie was smart. He gave Old Master Crawford an out too and said, "It's great to be able to have Ms. Luca's

homemade food on the New Year."

Old Master Crawford was happy to hear that and gave him a thumbs-up gesture.

Luca carried the snacks out of the kitchen. They did not intentionally lower their volume, which was why Luca had

heard everything they said.

An indescribable blissful feeling aroused in her chest.

Luca placed the snacks on the coffee table and said, “Try these first. Let me make some juice for everyone."

Luca knew the kids would be celebrating New Year here, hence she bought some fresh fruits through the new

grocery delivery app she downloaded on her phone.

After all, the kids would need to take vitamins and supplements every day.

Luca returned to the kitchen. Rainie rose to her feet and said, "I'm going to help Ms. Luca."

Tommy looked at the snacks greedily and picked up a cookie. However, he did not eat it first. He handed the cookie

to Old Master Crawford instead. Then, he said, "Great-grandpa, you first."

Old Master Crawford took the cookie from Tommy and said happily, "Tommy, you've grown up. Good. Very good."

"Of course. Daddy said I'm another year older after New Year. I have to be good and stop being naughty." Tommy

kept what Luke had told him in mind.

Old Master Crawford agreed with what Tommy said. He felt glad that the kids had grown up well.

Even though their mother was not by their side, the children had grown up healthily. They became more

considerate as they grew up. They showed respect to the elders.

They did not become rebellious and undisciplined because they only had a father by their side.

Old Master Crawford felt thankful for that. The best gift Zachary had left for him in this world was his two children,

Luke and Louis.

He was in the latter years of his life. Although his son was no longer by his side and his daughters-in- law were a

mess, he was fortunate to have two good grandsons.

Tommy took another piece of cookie, handed it to Luke, and said, "Daddy, although you don't like eating sweet food,

you like Ms. Luca's homemade desserts. Here you go."

"Thank you." Luke took the cookie from him and took a bite.

It was exactly like what Tommy said. Luke did not have a sweet tooth, but he liked everything that Luca made.

Hence, even though it was something sweet, Luke would enjoy eating it.

"The juice is ready," said Luca. She carried a tray with a few glasses of juice on it and walked toward the sofa. Then,

she placed a glass of vegetable juice in front of Old Master Crawford and explained to him, "Old Master Crawford,

this glass of juice is good for your blood lipids and blood pressure. Is it okay for you to have this?"

"Of course. It looks healthy." Old Master Crawford looked at the green-colored liquid in the glass. He knew Luca

made the juice for him for the sake of his health.

After all, he was an elderly man. He could no longer eat sweets like young people.

Luca smiled. Then, she distributed the juice to Luke and the kids.

The last glass of juice was hers.

After that, Luca sat on the other sofa, picked up the glass of juice, and took a sip of it.

Tommy was eating the cookie. He was so sensitive that he could taste that the cookie tasted slightly different from

the ones he had eaten before. Hence, he came to Luca's side, smiled, and asked, "Ms. Luca, why does the cookie

taste different from the previous ones?"

"I used a sugar substitute. Old Master Crawford can't take too much sugar. It's healthier if I use a sugar substitute,"

replied Luca. She did not have enough time, so she did not separate the old master's and the kids' snacks.

Therefore, she used the sugar substitute for all the snacks. "Why? Does it taste a lot different from the previous

one?"

“No. It's just slightly different.” Tommy shook his head. Then, he smiled and said, “It still tastes good.”

“Luca, that's very thoughtful of you," said Old Master Crawford when he heard what Luca said.

Snacks made with sugar substitutes would not affect his health, and he could have more.

Luca smiled and replied, “The health of the elderly and kids are both weak. It's only right I pay more attention to it."

Old Master Crawford looked at her in admiration, then he glanced at Luke. Luke was holding a cookie in his hands.

How many cookies had Luke eaten?

When Luke was young, Old Master Crawford had never given Luke snacks for the sake of his health.

This included cookies and other snacks.

After all, those snacks came from a unified production process. There were too many additives in the snacks if they

were not homemade. They were bad for a child's health, which was why he did not allow Luke to take too many

snacks and sweets.

As time passed, Luke no longer liked eating snacks or sweets anymore.

Did Luke look like someone who hated sweet food now?

Old Master Crawford then began to eat Luca's homemade snacks.

"Sure enough, I made the right choice by coming here. There are good food and drinks here. It's peaceful too.

Staying here is much better than in Crawford Manor," said Old Master Crawford. He picked up the glass of juice and

took a sip of it. It tasted surprisingly good.

He thought vegetable juice would not taste as good as fruit juice.

However, it seemed like every food or drink that Luca made would taste good.

After all, she was good at this, and it was unlikely that the juice would taste awful.

Old Master Crawford took another two sips.

Luca smiled. She did not ask what the old master meant. She knew Allison must have gone to Crawford Manor and

started a war.

Allison was always looking for trouble, especially when she encountered Susan.

Even though Luke and Louis' father had passed away, they never got along with each other. It was normal for them

to fight with each other.
