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

Luca’s expression remained impassive as Mrs. Sullivan continued to beg her.
Talia and her mother exchanged glances. Even though she felt guilty for asking Luca for help, she realized that she really
needed Luca’s help to get her out of that mess.
She tried to evoke Luca’s pity. “You don’t have to say that, Mom. It’s all my fault. I’m the silly one.”
Streams of tears gushed from Mrs. Sullivan’s eyes. She had suffered multiple shocks over the past two days. When those
hooligans came to threaten Talia’s life, Cole did not show up at all.
She resented her daughter for sleeping with that man.
Mrs. Sullivan wiped her tears away and sobbed. “I can’t blame you, Talia. That man must have tricked you to get in bed with him,
but now... now... how heartless can he be? Tell me, Ms. Craw, does that man deserve to be a department manager?”
Luca did not think that Cole was qualified to be a department manager, but she had no say in the hiring process.
“You’re complaining to the wrong person, Mrs. Sullivan. It’s Mr. Crawford’s decision.” Luca realized that Talia and her mother
wanted her to help them get back at Cole.
They thought that they could rely on someone of the same rank as Cole in the department so that Cole’s position would be in
peril.
However, Talia had told her mother that Cole was the one who tricked her...
Luca could not stop Talia from telling lies, but she thought that she was lucky for not accepting Talia as her research assistant.
Since that incident, Luca had realized that Talia was someone who would not hesitate to lie to gain whatever she wanted. What
she heard earlier proved her right once again.
Mrs. Sullivan nodded hurriedly. “Yes, yes, of course, the decision is in the big boss’s hands, but you’re also a department
manager, aren’t you? The big boss will definitely consider your opinion. Ms. Craw, my Talia has always been a good girl. She
works hard to make money for the family because she knows that I’m unwell, but...”
Luca could not tell if Mrs. Sullivan did not know Talia’s true personality or if she was also complicit in Talia’s ploy.
Unfortunately, Luca had no sympathy for Talia.

Luca looked at the mother and daughter and smiled. The two people did not know what she was thinking.
Talia’s gaze had never looked away from Luca. She wondered what the smile meant.
“Dr. Craw...” She said with the most pitiful voice she could muster. Luca was probably the only person who could help her.
The other researchers in the Technical Department were all Cole’s friends. She even knew that Cole and the others would go to
the nightclub together.
Talia never hoped that those people would betray Cole and help her. She hoped that Luca would take pity on her because Luca
was also a woman who might empathize with her.
Even though Talia did not finish her sentence, Luca could guess what she wanted to say. “I’d like to talk to you in private,” she
said.
Talia was taken aback, and she felt vaguely uneasy. However, she considered that Luca might be convinced to help her. She
turned to her mother and said, “Mom, why don’t you get yourself some lunch downstairs?”
Mrs. Sullivan nodded, thinking that Luca was not going to harm her daughter. She put on sunglasses and a cap, took an empty
lunch box, and left the room.
After her mother left the room, Talia immediately burst into tears.
Luca stood in front of him, and she could tell that those tears were genuine. She slowly handed her a paper napkin.
“Thanks.” Talia took it and wiped her tears.
She felt very sad thinking about her experiences in the past few days. She did not realize she was pregnant until she lost her
child, and she was not sure if she would be able to keep her job...
Luca could only say helplessly, “I can’t talk to you if you keep on crying.”
Talia tried to stop her tears. She could not change what happened, but she would try her best to avoid a bad ending.
Luca pulled a chair over and sat opposite Talia.
Talia could see that Luca’s expression remained impassive as ever. In fact, her expression seemed harsher than earlier.

She felt extremely uneasy, and she hoped that she was mistaken about Luca’s thoughts. “Dr. Craw, can you help me?” She said
sheepishly.
“How do you want me to help you?” Luca asked. There was no emotion in her voice.
Talia was slightly excited when she heard that. If Luca was willing to ask her that, she might also be willing to help her.
“I’m an innocent victim in this incident. If you can help me, I promise to expose everything I know about Dr. Kidman, including the
things he had done that actively harmed the company!” Talia said. She only wanted to save her own skin.
“Talia, if you do that, you know that you’ll end up the same as Dr. Kidman, right? If you already know what he did, but you only
choose to expose it now because you don’t want to get in trouble, what do you think Mr. Crawford would think?” Luca said with a
smirk.
Talia was taken aback. She did not have much work experience, and she realized that what Luca said was true.
Even if she wanted to get back at Cole, she would be implicated as well.
“I didn’t mean that, Dr. Craw...” Talia tried to explain herself.
Luca was not in the mood to listen to excuses. She asked, “You said that you have a lot of evidence of Dr. Kidman’s misdeeds,
right? Does one of the incidents involve me?”
Talia blinked. She did not expect Luca to ask that.
“I’m talking about the incident in my lab. You were also involved in it, right? Now that Mr. Doyle is getting closer and closer to the
bottom of the incident, I don’t think you can worm your way out of it. Talia, my purpose in visiting you today is to give you some
health supplements and nothing else. You made the wrong decision when you chose to sleep with Dr. Kidman, but what was
worse was that you decided to involve me. I’m not going to forgive you for messing up my research. Take this opportunity to rest
well because you still have a lot to deal with at work. You’re still young, and if you can own up to your involvement before Mr.
Doyle realizes it, things might not be as bad as you think,” Luca said while staring straight into Talia’s eyes.
She could see that the miscarriage had taken a huge toll on Talia’s health. In two days, the young woman seemed to have aged
by twenty years.
Luca might have taken pity on her if not that she had done those things to her.
