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

Chapter 1268 Was Luca Afraid of Him?
Luca opened his friend request but hesitated for a long time.
She wanted to accept the request, but her rationality told her that she should not. The fewer interactions with her, the better it
was for him and the children.
She struggled internally for a long time before putting her phone back into her handbag. She did not accept his friend request.
She knew Luke's character very well, and she knew that he would not ask her directly to accept the friend request. All she had to
do was to wait three days for the request to expire, and she should be off the hook.
Meanwhile, Tommy was sitting next to Luke. "Daddy!" He exclaimed when he saw Luke end the video call.
"Don't disturb her," Luke said and handed the phone back to him.
He knew that Tommy would be bored, so he asked Jason to buy several children's books.
"I'm not disturbing Ms. Luca at all. Can't you see that she's so bored?" Tommy pouted and protested.
Luke stood up as though he did hear what Tommy said.
Seeing that Luke had already ended the video call, Tommy thought it was not appropriate to call her again right now." Daddy, did
you send Ms. Luca a friend request?" He asked.
"This is adult stuff. It's none of your business." Luke sat on the executive chair and continued to read through his emails.
Tommy pouted. He decided to download a game on the phone. "Ms. Luca won't accept your friend request," he said crankily.
"Why?" Luke raised his eyebrows when he heard his son say that.
"Ms. Luca doesn't like you," Tommy said while downloading a puzzle game. "Don't you know? Ms. Luca seems awkward
whenever you're around. I think that Ms. Luca is afraid of you. That's not too surprising. After all, there aren't that many people in
the world who aren't afraid of you. You shouldn't go the next time I visit Ms. Luca. Don't come and disrupt our intimacy."
"That's not how you use the word 'intimacy.'" Inexplicably, Luke felt irritated by what his son told him.
Is Luca afraid of me?'

Luke rubbed his chin, wondering if he was that scary.
He did not reply to his son. Instead, he continued to read his emails when he received an email from Gale.
Attached to the email was Luca's dossier. It had been delayed fora longtime.
It was the first time that Gale took so long to investigate someone.
Luke opened the document and read all eleven pages. He frowned and began reading from the top again.
The dossier was very detailed. It recorded Luca's experiences since she was a child, and every statement was well-supported by
evidence.
Luke wondered why Gale took so long to investigate someone with an unremarkable past. Moreover, Gale told him that he faced
difficulties because someone seemed to deliberately withhold Luca's information from him.
Luke had been wondering if that was the case or if Luca's information was made up.
A knock on the door brought Luke back to his senses. He closed the email window and said, "Come in."
Jason came in with a bag of books. "Mr. Crawford, here are some books for Little Mr. Crawford's enjoyment."
Tommy stood up and took the bag from Jason. "Thank you. Uncle Jason."
He loved reading, so he was very happy to take the thick stack of books from Jason's hands.
Luke nodded. "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Jason nodded and left Luke's office.
Instead of playing on the phone, Tommy picked up a book and began to read. Soon, he was engrossed in the story and forgot all
about Luca.
Luke narrowed his eyes. He checked his personal phone to
find that Luca had not accepted his friend request.
The organizers had invited many presenters to the conference, so the lectures were split into two sessions: One in the morning,
and the other in the afternoon.

After the morning lectures ended, Luca and Dr. Albus left the auditorium and went to find a place to have lunch. They would have
to return to the hall in the afternoon.
After they left the auditorium, Dr. Albus's assistant suggested, "I was searching around and found that there is a restaurant in the
university that serves decent food.
Should we have our lunch there, Dr. Albus, Dr. Craw?"
Luca nodded. She was not a picky eater.
Dr. Albus agreed with the suggestion, so the four people walked toward the restaurant.
Finding himself on a university campus and looking at the students around him, Dr. Albus was in a good mood. "Ah, to be young
again. Dr. Craw, do you think that you'll be lucky enough to meet that young man at the restaurant later?"
Luca's expression sank when Dr. Albus mentioned that impudent young man. "That's no joking matter, Dr. Albus."
Dr. Albus could feel that the atmosphere was turning awkward. He forced a laugh and said, "Don't be angry, I was just pulling
your leg, but I guess if those young men would want to court you, it does prove that you're quite charming."
Luca did not reply.
Dr. Albus rubbed his nose. The atmosphere was more awkward than ever.
Even though Dr. Albus was silent, he was not happy to admit fault. 'Why is Luca so haughty? Is it because he's Mr.
Crawford's mistress? I've never seen a mistress act like that before.
'I wonder what will happen if Mr. Crawford's wife and grandfather find out about her. Will she still be able to act like that?'
Eventually, the four people found the restaurant. They arrived there just before lunchtime, so there were not many customers
there.
After ordering their food, they sat down in a corner.
While they waited for the food to arrive, groups of students entered the restaurant. Luca could guess that it must be lunchtime for
the students now.

She opened her messaging app but closed it immediately. She was afraid that she might not be able to control herself when she
saw the friend request.
Soon, their food was served. The four people ate quietly, not talking to each other.
William and Paul caused a commotion when they entered the restaurant. Many female students turned their heads and looked at
them unblinkingly.
William was not in the mood to care about those students. His eyes darted around the restaurant.
Paul tapped his shoulder and pointed at a table in the corner. "Over there. Your Russian doll."
William did not know Luca's name, so he called her "the Russian doll." It was because her features were so delicate, like a doll.
They went to the restaurant to try their luck, and they did not expect that they were so lucky.
William was overjoyed. He walked over to that table.
Rhett was the first to notice William coming over. He whispered, "Dr. Craw, it's that student from earlier."
Luca frowned when she heard that. When she lifted her head, William was already at their table.
