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

Chapter 1234 She Had To Show Some Progress
After Rhett left, Luca continued to browse the net and read the news.
She thought of Amur when she saw the news of a wealthy businessman who was brutally murdered in his villa. She took out her
phone and called him.
However, it seemed that his phone was turned off.
With no other choice, Luca had to put down the phone. She thought that Amur should have arrived at the Island of Despair by
now, but for some reason, her heart just could not settle down.
Luca's expression turned solemn when she thought of what Abel said.
The phone rang. Luca picked up the phone and glanced at it. It was a call from an unfamiliar number based in A City.
Luca picked it up and a kiddish voice sounded from the other end of the call. "Ms. Luca, I’m Tommy!"
Of course, she knew who was on the other end of the phone.
Luca chuckled softly, and the sadness in her eyes melted away when she heard Tommy’s voice. "I know. Why did you call me?
Isn't it time for school?
"I borrowed the teacher's phone to call you." Tommy glanced at the teacher with a cheeky grin on his face. It had taken him some
effort to convince the teacher to lend him her phone.
"Mm, have you been good in school?" Luca asked. Tommy was different from Lanie and Rainie. He was active and lively, so it
took a little more effort to manage him.
"Of course, I'm a good boy!" Tommy puffed his chest proudly and thought about why he called her. He said, "Ms. Luca, can I go
to your house tonight?
"Come to my house?" Luca frowned slightly and wondered whether it was his idea or Luke's.
"Yes, yes." Tommy nodded quickly. "I miss your cooking."

Luca could not bring herself to turn him down when she heard Tommy's cheeky voice. Since Amur had returned to the Island of
Despair and there was no one else in the apartment, she wanted to see her kid.
However, when she thought of Luke, she hesitated and asked, "Did your father agree to this?" "He said yes. Dad has been busy
lately and has no time to take care of us. By the way, Ms. Luca, can I bring my brother and sister? We’ll be good, we promise!"
Tommy was worried that she would not agree so he made sure she had no reason to.
Luca's heart softened when she knew that Luke would not show up and did not stop Tommy either. She planned to pick up the
kids after she got off work and then go to the supermarket to buy groceries, just like before." Okay, I'll pick you up from school?"
Tommy thought about it for a while. He did not want to trouble her by having her drive back and forth, so he said, "Ms. Luca,
don't worry. Zander will send us there, I remember your address."
He had only been there once but he remembered the name of Luca's building and the floor she stayed on.
The smile on Luca's face grew bigger and bigger when she noticed how sensible her baby boy had grown. She said joyfully,
"Okay, do you have anything in particular you want to eat? Also, what do your brother and sister like to eat?"
After so many years, she was not sure if Lanie and Rainie's taste had changed.
"We’ll eat anything you cook," Tommy said with a smile. Even though Lanie and Rainie had not tried Luca's cooking, he believed
that they would love it.
Even though it was a perfunctory reply, because it came out of Tommy's mouth, Luca felt his sincerity.
"Okay, see you tonight." She smiled and was overjoyed that she would be able to see her kids without having to meet Luke.
Luca sat in the chair and glanced at the time, hoping that it would pass sooner.
The phone rang again. Luca's smile gradually disappeared when she saw the caller ID.
It was a random string of numbers, but she knew that it was Abel's number.
The phone rang twice and Luca slowly pressed the button to answer. She kept quiet and just listened to the person on the other
end of the phone.
Abel was not the one who spoke but a man with a rough voice. "Ivana, the boss has given an order. You must secure a spot for
the off-site training." "Off-site training?" Luca's mood sank. She suddenly thought of something and calmly said, "I want to talk to

him."
The man laughed disdainfully and said mercilessly, "The boss isn’t here, you just need to do what he tells you."
He hung up the phone immediately after.
When she heard the busy tone, Luca put her phone aside and was furious. She opened the safe and took out the research
materials.
She thought the off-training was planned by the company and did not expect that Abel was involved. She had no choice even if
she did not want to go. After all, the order came from Abel.
Abel might take action if the spot was given to others in the company.
Luke had already begun to suspect her and she was determined not to let him find out more. Her next steps had to be executed
seamlessly. 1
Luca left her office holding the documents and walked to the assistants’ office.
Mo and Rhett were the only ones around. The other research assistants were not there. Luca guessed that they were all busy
doing experiments.
"Dr. Craw?" Rhett saw her walk in and stood up immediately.
Luca nodded and said to him, "Let's start with our experiment." "Okay." Rhett was surprised but did not question her. He walked
out with a pile of documents.
The two walked to the laboratory.
On the way, Luca asked Rhett, "At what stage of the experiment will the company assign additional headcount to the project?"
"As long as the first stage is completed and the report is complete and submitted, there'll be additional headcount and an
independent laboratory, " Rhett replied.
"Then, let’s hurry up," Luca said. In the early stages of the experiment, she delayed the work as long as she could so she would
not progress to the next stage as the findings were not ready yet. She thought that doing so, it would not attract Luke's attention.
However, her unintentional actions and Abel’s plot had attracted Luke's attention.

If it continued to drag on, Luke might get more suspicious and Abel would not let her off the hook easily.
She had to show some progress...
Luca walked into the laboratory, noticed the several researchers doing their experiments in their area, and walked to her spot
with her expression unchanged. She began her research.
With Shanks' preliminary findings on hand, as long as she does not delay the work, she would be able to complete the first stage
soon.
After work.
Luca raised her gaze, looked at the several researchers who were still busy doing experiments, and stood up calmly. "Time to go
home."
Her words were directed to Rhett.
"Dr. Craw, are you going to get off work?" Rhett was surprised. 'Isn’t she trying to get the opportunity to go for the off-training in
New York? She sure is calm about it." "Mm, I have plans after work," Luca replied softly, but it was still heard by Dr. Cole who
was nearby.
He had a test tube in his hand and looked at her several times. Then, he turned around and asked Talia to record the data.
Everyone was usually calm when it came to pharmaceutical research.
After all, it was not an easy task. They would choose to be lazy and make excuses. However, the opportunity to go for off-site
training would reflect their standing in the company and they had to take it seriously. That was why they were all in the laboratory.
