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

Chapter 1121 Have We Met Before?
"Alright, thank you," Ivana said. After Jason left the room, she breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed her pose.
Jason was staring at her earlier. She wondered if her cover was blown.
Her face had totally changed. How did they manage to recognize her?
Ivana held the glass of water and continued to wait. Fifteen minutes later, Ivana turned her head when she heard the room door
open and saw Luke coming in.
"Mr. Crawford." She stood up and greeted him awkwardly.
Luke nodded. His heart skipped a beat when he noticed that Ivana did not wear any makeup.
Ivana had a seductive face, but she was different from other women. Most if not all other women would wear makeup whenever
they went out of their houses.
That reminded Luke of the previous Bianca.
Before Bianca lost her memories, she did not wear any makeup unless it was an important occasion. Now, she would spend her
time in front of the vanity the moment she woke up...
Luke did not remain stunned for too long. He sat down opposite her.
Ivana sat up straight. Her gaze wandered around the room and avoided the man in front of her.
Luke noticed the glass of water in her hands. "Do you want a new glass?" He asked.
"No, it's fine." Ivana shook her head. In the moments of silence, she could hear her heart beating faster.
Luke crossed her legs and looked at her. "I've read your resume, but there are a few more things that I'd like to ask." 1 "Please."
Ivana took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
Luke asked, "You mentioned that you own several research patents in Russia. Can I ask what they are about?" "I've been
researching a cure for cancer," Ivana said. Shanks was the inventor behind those patents, but she knew their contents very well.
"Do you think that you can research something better here?" Luke asked.

"Yes, I am confident." Ivana nodded. Shanks might have been the one who invented the cure, but she had helped him in his
research. She did not expect that Shanks would name her as the patent holder.
Abel seemed to know that Luke was eyeing the pharmaceutical industry.
Luke thought that the determination in her eyes seemed familiar, and he began to sense something within him. He changed his
sitting position and continued to ask her about her experience in pharmaceutical research.
Ivan felt slightly more at ease when Luke only asked her about work- related matters, but she could not be fully at ease.
After all, the man in front of her was Luke Crawford...
Luke and Ivana chatted for almost an hour when Jason knocked on the door and reminded Luke that the next meeting was about
to begin.
Luke stood up, straightened his clothes, and looked at Ivana who also stood up. He asked, "Ms. Ivana, have we ever met
before?"
Ever since he saw her, he thought that she somehow seemed familiar.
"Yesterday was the first time we met." Ivana's heart started to beat faster when she heard him say that. She clenched her fists to
try to calm herself down, and her fingernails dug into her palms.
"Have you been to A City before?" Luke looked at her with a profound gaze.
Ivana forced a smile and said, "I was born in A City, but our family migrated to Russia when I was very young. This is the first
time I'm back in the country. I don't think we've ever met before." 1
Luke nodded when he thought of her middle name. "I like the name 'Luca.' I'll call you that in the future."
Ivana was taken aback as he continued, "Ms. Luca."
"Mm. Take care, Mr. Crawford." Luca's blood slowly froze when she heard him call her that.
Every one of his words could make her blood freeze or boil.
After Luke left the room, Luca's body teetered, and she fell on the couch.

It took her a long while before she found the strength to leave the room.
Luca took the elevator downstairs. She did not have a car, so she had to take a cab from outside the T Corporation building.
She did not notice that someone sitting in a BMW across the road was staring at her.
Bianca had a savage expression on her face as she watched Ivana leave.
She had an informer that was close to Luke. That person had told her that Luke was going to meet Ivana alone!
She immediately drove over to T Corporation. However, she stayed in the car because she could not find a reason to disturb
Luke.
Their meeting lasted for an hour!
Bianca clenched her fist and punched the steering wheel. What other reason did a man have for meeting a woman alone for an
hour?
She took out her phone and made an encrypted call.
The call was soon answered. Bianca asked directly, "What's the name of the woman that Boss sent here?" "Boss said that we
shouldn't tell you yet. He'll tell you about her when it's time," the man on the other end of the call said.
"If you don't tell me who she is, you're only making my life difficult. Just tell me her name, and I'll keep a close eye on that
woman," Bianca said. She had to find out if Ivana was that woman.
"You and I have no right to question Boss's orders. Just do your job." The man ended the call after that.
They were talking through an encrypted channel, and their calls could not be very long.
"Useless!" Bianca cursed savagely and tossed the phone aside.
She looked at her phone for some time before deciding to give Luke a call.
The call was soon picked up. Bianca tried to make her voice gentle, but her vocal cords had been ruined, so there was always a
hint of hoarseness in her voice.
"Luke," she called out to the man on the other end of the call.

"Mm," Luke frowned as he looked at his employees in the conference room.
Bianca always called him at the wrong time.
"I'm informing you that I'm near Tommy's school now. I can pick him up after school, so you don't have to worry," Bianca said.
"Alright, Bea. I'm in the middle of a meeting," Luke said.
Bianca knew the implications of his words. She said, "Alright, I won't disturb youthen."
She tossed the phone aside after the call ended.
She had broken several phones in the past two years. Luke did not say anything about her bad temper.
However, things seemed to have changed lately.
"No, I'll have to make out with Luke somehow," Bianca mumbled to herself. To claim a man's heart, she had to claim his body
first.
She had never seen a man who did not desire her body. If this carried on, Ivana would have a chance of getting close to him.
Even if Ivana was out of the picture, there were other women like Tia...
After making up her mind, she drove toward Tommy's school.
