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

Old Master Crawford put down the vegetable juice and turned to look at the TV. It was replaying the New Year Gala

from last night, so he asked, "Isn't this last night's New Year Gala?"

Luca nodded. She smiled and explained, "I fell asleep when I was watching it last night. I didn't manage to finish the

show. I turned on the TV and watched the replay when I was bored just now."

"The New Year Gala last night was interesting," Old Master Crawford said. Then, he picked up another snack. It was

not a cookie this time but Luca's homemade nougat.

Although it was a nougat, Luca had used a sugar substitute and sugar-free marshmallows.

"Yes. It was awesome. Ms. Luca, how could you have fallen asleep?" Tommy grinned and looked at Luca, waiting for

her reply.

Luca was rendered speechless. There was no way she could tell him that she fell asleep while watching the show

because it was too quiet.

"It was probably because I did some exercise, so I was tired." Luca found an excuse to brush him off.

Old Master Crawford looked at the TV and said, "Let's watch it again. I don't mind watching such an interesting New

Year Gala again."

"Great-grandpa, I'm not watching this. I'd like to go upstairs and play." Tommy was not very interested in the show

he had watched before.

"Off you go." Old Master Crawford waved his hand.

Tommy looked at Lanie and Rainie, then he asked, "Lanie, Rainie, are you coming together?"

"Let's go." Lanie rose to his feet. After he was taken to Crawford Manor yesterday, he had yet to touch any books.

He wanted to return to his bedroom to read some books.

The three kids left together.

Old Master Crawford stroked his beard and said, "Luke, I've asked Mr. Griffin to bring my chessboard here. Please

take it for me. Let's play chess and watch the show together."

"Okay." Luke shifted his gaze that was on Luca and took the chessboard out.

He placed the chessboard on the table and played chess with the old master.

"Luca, don't sit that far. Come nearer. Sit beside Luke and watch how I defeat him," said Old Master Crawford when

he read his grandson's mind.

Luca had no choice but to stand up after Old Master Crawford asked her to do so. She sat on the sofa beside Luke

and pretended to watch TV to cool down the heat on her face.

Luke smiled, showing how happy he was.

It was just that Luca was pretending to watch TV, so she missed out on the joyful expression on his face.

“Come on. I'm going to teach you a lesson today." Old Master Crawford rolled his sleeves as though he would be

winning this game.

Luke replied calmly, "Grandpa, I know your strategies well."

"So what? It's been a while since you went back to Crawford Manor. I've already come up with many other tactics,"

Old Master Crawford said confidently. He used to play chess with Luke, and Luke eventually had all his strategies

figured out. That was why he always got defeated after that.

This time, the old master was confident.

"Lanie has been studying chess tactics too. Grandpa, you can bring him to Crawford Manor to play chess with you if

you're bored next time," said Luke, while playing chess with him.

"You little brat, are you trying to trick me? You just want me to look after your children, huh? No way," Old Master

Crawford replied delightedly.

"Didn't you tell me that you'd like to see your great-grandchildren often?" Luke took his time to defend himself from

the old master's attack move.

"I meant seeing them, not taking care of them. I've had enough of taking care of you and Louis back then. It's time

for me to enjoy myself. Come back more often and play chess with me if you care for me." Old Master Crawford

paused for a moment, and continued, "Or you can let me come over here more often."

Luke replied, "I've never stopped you from coming here."

Old Master Crawford nodded and said with a smile on his face, "You haven't, but it's inappropriate for me to come

here often and disturb the two of you."

Then, the old master shot a glance at Luca.

Luca was sitting together with Luke, and they were sitting very close to each other.

They both looked great sitting together, and it gave the others a feeling that they were close like a family.

Old Master Crawford was rest assured when he remembered how much the kids liked Luca.

After what happened to Bianca, Old Master Crawford was always worried that Luke would remain single and never

choose to be with another woman for the rest of his life. Now, he knew there was nothing to worry about. After all,

Luca was by Luke's side.

"Old Master Crawford, Lanie and the others will be very happy if you can come here more often," said Luca. When

the children were young, Luke and her would take the kids back to Crawford Manor for dinner during the weekends

even though they were not staying there.

The kids had grown up now. They would prefer to learn more and find out about their hobbies when they had spare

time. That was why they seldom went back to Crawford Manor now.

Even if they went back, they only ate dinner together. They hardly had any time to accompany the old master.

Old Master Crawford shook his head and asked, "Are the kids the only ones who are happy? Luca, will you be happy

if I come here?"

Luca was dumbfounded for a moment. Who was she to express her opinions on whether she liked him coming over

or not?

The villa belonged to Luke.

Did Old Master Crawford intentionally ask her such a question? Luca could not figure out what the old master

meant at that moment. She could only give him a faint smile and reply, “Old Master Crawford, this is your home

too."

Old Master Crawford was slightly disappointed. Luca did not straightforwardly answer his question. It seemed like

she had not treated it as her home yet.

The old master zoned out for a second and made the wrong move.

Old Master Crawford Lowered his head and looked at the chessboard. He immediately blurted out, "Oh no, I made

the wrong move."

Then, he was about to move the pawn to another place.

Luke grabbed the old master's hand, shook his head, and said, "Grandpa, no take-backs allowed."

"It was an accident." Old Master Crawford looked at him and objected. The two of them were neck and neck. Now

that the old master had made a wrong move, it put him in a disadvantageous position.

Old Master Crawford was unwilling to. After all, he said that he would defeat Luke just now.

"It was your choice," Luke insisted. Then, he made his move and his pawn was pointing straight at the old master's

king pawn.

Old Master Crawford got angry and looked at Luke who took the game too seriously.

Luke only knew how to bully him when he had yet to get himself a wife. How could he win the game so easily? What

a brat.

"You little brat. I'm your Grandpa. What's wrong with me undoing my moves?" Old Master Crawford was counting

on his seniority in the family and requested to undo his move.

"Grandpa, there's another game after this. You can try again if you lose this time. Besides, don't bring up our family

relationship. There's only winning and losing when it comes to chess," Luke insisted. Then, he shot a glance at Luca,

who was beside him.

Luca had been a big help. She knocked it out of the park.

If it were not for her, Old Master Crawford would not have gotten distracted and made the wrong move.

"Kid, you have such a burning desire to win," mumbled Old Master Crawford. He had no choice but to admit that he

had been defeated.

"You're the one who taught me this." Luke gave him an innocent smile, and it pissed Old Master Crawford even

more. He had indeed taught him to never lose out, but he had also taught Luke to respect his elders. How could

Luke not get that?

"Let's start another round. I'm going to be serious this time." Old Master Crawford rearranged the chess set and

thought he would look for the chance to lecture Luke for being unsophisticated.
