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

Chapter 1214 Fallen Into His Trap
Luke understood what she meant. He put the water bottle away, gritted his teeth, and picked her up in a bridal carry. "Bear with it
just a little longer."
Luca could feel the world spin around her. When she was picked up from the bed, she instinctively grabbed Luke's shirt sleeve.
Luke had already taken off his coat when he entered the room earlier. Through the thin material of his shirt, he could feel the
boiling-hot temperature of her hand.
Luke grunted and stifled his urges. He quickly walked into the bathroom and gently placed her into the bathtub.
When Luca loosened her grip on him, Luke felt that he had lost a part of him.
Luke saw that Luca's eyes were tightly shut, and her brows were tightly furrowed in agony. Without hesitation, he turned on the
shower.
The warm water splashed on Luca's body. Soon, her dress was soaked through and clung to her skin, revealing her curvaceous
body.
Luke gawked at her. He did not realize that passion was flaring in his eyes.
The water level rose gradually. Soon, Luca's body was immersed in water.
"Do you feel better?” Luke asked. If the water did not have any effect, he would bring her to the hospital.
Luca did not respond. Her brows were still tightly furrowed.
Luke took two steps back when he saw the hem of Luca's dress floating in the water. His gaze remained on her body.
It took Luca a while before she felt her body cool down, but she dared not stand up yet. The dress would cling tightly to her body
and expose her figure.
Another reason was that she was familiar with the effects of the drug.
Shanks was the one who had invented the drug, and she knew its components very well. Shanks had told her about the
ingredients and challenged her to make an antidote for it. She had taken the drug together with the antidote.

According to Shanks, any researcher worth their salt ought to take the drugs they invented.
That was why she knew that there were two ways of curing the effects of the drug. The first was to make out with someone, and
the second was the antidote.
Soaking herself in water could only temporarily suppress the effects of the drug. If she stepped out of the bathtub, she would
suffer from the effects again in less than a minute.
Luca looked at Luke. She could only rely on him.
"Mr. Crawford, can you do me a favor?" She hugged herself tightly to show that she was helpless.
"Speak it," Luke said.
"Can you bring me my handbag?" Luca pleaded.
Luke thought that the request was quite weird, but he did so anyway. He went out of the bathroom, took Luca's handbag on the
couch, and returned to the bathroom.
"Get me a bottle of water too," Luca said after taking the handbag from Luke.
Luke went out of the bathroom again, took the bottle of water that Luca was drinking from earlier, and went back inside.
Luca had already found the antidote in her handbag. She poured a pill from the bottle into her palm.
Luke handed the bottle of water over and watched her swallow the pill with a gulp of water. "What's that?" He asked.
"It's a pill that can cure my condition," Luca said in between deep breaths.
Luke saw Luca's fair skin undulate under the ripples, but he did not feel any emotions. "How do you know that you'll be
drugged?" "I'm not a fortune-teller. It's just a habit of mine." Luca took out several more bottles of pills from her handbag. "I've
always brought these pills together with me as a precaution." "That's a very peculiar habit to have," Luke glanced pensively at
the bottles in her hand. There was only a label with a chemical equation on each of the bottles, and he did not know what they
meant.
Usually, other people would put aspirin in their handbags as a precaution, but Luca put antidotes for date-rape drugs inside. It
was quite hard to imagine why.

Luke thought that Luca was different from other women.
"Just in case," Luca said and did not offer any further explanation.
How else was she going to explain why she had so many pills in her handbag? She could not tell him that Abel was plotting
something against them.
That was why she would rather remain silent.
Luke saw that the redness on Luca's face was fading away. He took a bathrobe and placed it next to the bathtub. "Put it on. I'll
wait for you outside."
Luca was surprised as she watched him close the bathroom door.
She thought that Luke would leave after seeing that she was free from the effects of the drug. She wondered if Luke wanted to
ask her more questions once she was outside, or was she overthinking it?
Luca sighed and stood up. Her wet dress felt very heavy.
She took off the dress and put on the bathrobe. When she looked at herself in the mirror, her makeup was already undone. She
noticed the bottle of makeup remover next to the mirror and cleaned her face with it.
When everything was done and she opened the bathroom door, ten minutes had already passed.
Luca felt reserved when she saw Luke sitting on the couch. She thought for a while and sat on the bed; that was the farthest
place from the couch.
After she sat down, she looked at the man on the couch. She looked quite disheveled after the ordeal, while his demeanor was
like that of a king, without a single crease on his clothes.
She lowered her head and looked at her own hands that were wrinkled from soaking in the bathwater. Earlier, she had grabbed
his shirt, and she could sense the coolness of his skin through the thin material of the cloth.
The coolness comforted her greatly.
"I'm sorry for what happened today, Mr. Crawford," Luca said.

"Why are you apologizing?" Luke said. "You're a victim."
Indeed, she was a victim. If Luke were not there, she would not have had to go through all that.
Luca bunched up her wet hair.
When Luke saw that, he said, "There's a hairdryer in the bathroom."
Luca was not in the mood to dry her hair now. She let go of her hair and looked at Luke. "Thank you for saving me."
If he had not helped her, someone else would have saved her, and she could not guarantee that they would not do anything to
her.
Luca remembered that Marie had drugged her when she had first returned to the country, and it was also Luke who saved her.
Luke accepted her thanks. "How did you get drugged?" "I drank from a glass of champagne that the waiter handed to me," Luca
said. Shanks's drugs were very quick-acting, so she was very sure that the drug was in the glass of champagne.
She clutched the bed sheets tightly when she thought of that. If Luke had done nothing, she would have suffered a worse fate.
"Do you remember what the waiter looked like?" Luke asked.
