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

The cup of tea placed in front of Luke smelled good. Luke knew the churning alcohol smell in his stomach would stop once he
drank it.
However, he was not in a hurry. Instead, he patted the seat beside him and said, “Take a seat."
Luca noticed that Luke had something to tell her. Hence, she sat down on another sofa. It was late at night. Nina and the kids
were already in bed, and it was quiet. However, she still kept a suitable distance away from Luke.
Luke did not force her to sit beside him. Her nerves would be on edge as long as Nina was still around.
"Matysh found a woman to accompany him. And that woman has a pair of eyes that look like yours," said Luke.
Luca looked down, feeling helpless.
It was not a good thing. That would only show how much Matysh desired and wanted Luca. She replied in a soft voice, "Okay."
"If something happens to you, don't hide it from me. You have to tell me. Although he's not a local, he approached a criminal
organization for help. That's why it's not easy to deal with him," Luke reminded her with a solemn look on his face.
If he had been more careful and determined back then, Luca would not have ended up in this situation today.
Therefore, Luke could not bear the pain of losing her again.
Luke's voice was stern and serious as he was trying to let her know how serious the matter was.
Luca nodded and replied, "Don't worry. I'm not a child. I know I can't solve this all by myself. I'll never hide anything from you."
Luke let out a sigh of relief. He was unable to take the weight off his mind whenever it was something related to Luca.
Fortunately, Luca had given him her word.
The tension in his heart was relieved a little.
Luca shot a glance at the cup of tea that had almost cooled down and reminded him in a soft voice, "Mr. Crawford, drink the tea
while it's still warm. It won't be that effective once it gets cold."
Luke picked up the cup of tea and gulped it down.

The warmth of the tea flowed into his stomach, warming up his heart too. Although it did not produce an immediate effect, Luke
felt much better.
After Luke finished drinking the tea, he placed the cup on the coffee table and glanced at the time. It was getting late.
"Let's go upstairs, clean ourselves up, and get some rest. Aunt Neile will clean up tomorrow," said Luke.
“Okay," Luca nodded. The two of them made their way up the stairs.
It was quiet on the second floor. Nina and the kids had fallen asleep. They tiptoed their way to the bedroom when they reached
the second floor.
Although Luke had moved some of his toiletries to Luca's bedroom this morning, his clothes were still in his room. Hence, he did
not follow Luca back to her bedroom and returned to his bedroom first.
Luca walked into her bedroom. She turned on the lights and unconsciously looked at the bed, only to realize that Aunt Neile had
changed Luke's pillowcase so that it was the same as hers when she cleaned up her room today.
The pillow's color no longer looked odd in her room. It was as though it was supposed to be in her bedroom.
Luca's face was slightly burning.
That would only mean Aunt Neile had already found out about them...
Luca closed the door. She was not worried that Aunt Neile would report it to Old Master Crawford. After all, Old Master Crawford
had been using different methods such as giving her herbal tea and tonic to fix her up with Luke.
If Old Master Crawford found out about it, he would not be mad. He would be happy to hear it.
However.
Luca looked at the color of the pillowcases which were the same as her bed sheet. She wondered how much Old Master
Crawford knew about her and Luke.
Why would he agree and why would he even have the thought of bringing her and Luke together?
The old master had always kept an upright outlook on life, and family values were very important to him. He would never allow
the younger generation to fool around with others after getting married. Although he adored Luke, his perspective on such

matters was the same.
That was why Luca was unable to figure it out.
She took out a set of pajamas from her closet and walked into the bathroom.
Luca was planning to wash her hair today. She remained in the bathroom for a while after taking a shower. After she dried her
hair and did a hair treatment, she walked out of the bathroom.
Then, she realized that Luke was already sitting on her bed, reading the book he was reading yesterday.
Luca knew Luke would sit there and sleep with her regardless of how hard she tried to get him out of the bedroom.
Thus, she did not say anything. She secretly prayed that Nina would not find out about them tomorrow. Luca did not get onto the
bed. Instead, she sat on the dressing chair and began to slowly apply her skincare products on her face. The weather was cold,
and the air was dry. If she did not apply skincare on her face, her skin would not be able to stand the dryness in the air.
Previously, when she was on the Island of Despair, the skincare she applied was made by Shanks.
Even though she knew the recipe, she hardly had any time to make it herself after getting out of the island. That was why she
could only buy some skincare products for herself.
Of course, the ones she bought outside were not as good as the ones she made.
Luca took her time, and Luke did not rush her either. He turned the pages while waiting for her.
No matter how slowly her skin absorbed the skincare, her skin would eventually absorb it completely. Luca had no choice but to
stand up and walk to the other side of the bed. She lifted the blanket and said, "Mr. Crawford, I'm going to sleep first."
"Don't you find it strange?" Luke closed his book. After he watched her lay down on the bed, he leaned over on the bed and said
in a low voice.
"What?" Luca was surprised, and she could not understand what he meant at that moment.
Luke toyed with her hair. She had just washed it. Her hair was much smoother than it was this morning. Her hair would fall
straight when he coiled her hair with his fingers.

It was just like her.
He was lying right next to her now, but it was as though he did not truly have her. He even had this feeling that she was
uncatchable.
"There's only the two of us in this bedroom, but the way you're calling me makes me feel like we're in the office," Luke's deep
voice carried a hint of huskiness. His fingers continued to toy with her hair.
Luca felt a numb feeling going down her spine. What Luke said forced her to open her eyes and look at the man in front of him.
"Mr. Crawford." Her voice sounded a little hoarse too.
"We're not in the office or the company. There's no one else here," Luke complained with dissatisfaction as he ran his fingers
through her hair. He combed her hair for her.
Luca fell silent. What else could she address him other than Mr. Crawford?
Besides, did she have the privilege to do so?
Luke replied with patience, "Call my name.."
"L-Luke," Luca paused for a moment and called his name.
Luke was still unhappy with it. The way she called him sounded distant, but it sounded much better than Mr. Crawford.
Luke knew he should not be in a hurry. He had to slowly guide her and let her get used to it. Therefore, he nodded and said,
"That sounds much better. Keep in mind that you're not allowed to address me as Mr. Crawford when there's no one else.
Otherwise..."
There was a hint of affection in his voice in the last few words he uttered, and he also gave her a warning.
Luca had heard this tone before. She was still Bianca back then.
If she refused to listen to him, he would make it difficult for her to get out of bed the next day.
Luca's face reddened when she recalled the intimacy they shared back then. She leaned over to the other side, turned her back
to him, and said, "It's late. Let's call it a night. Good night."
