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

Luca arrived at Mr. Whitlock's office and knocked on the door.
"Come in." Mr. Whitlock's voice came from inside.
Luca opened the door and looked at the office. She noticed that Mr. Whitlock's secretary was reporting on some work, so she
stood at the door to wait for them to finish their conversation before she entered.
After the secretary was done, she turned around and left the office.
Mr. Whitlock greeted Luca, "Come in, Dr. Craw. Take a seat."
Luca nodded slightly and walked in without closing the door. She sat directly opposite him.
Mr. Whitlock glanced at the open door, then withdrew his gaze. Her action was like a warning to him.
The door was open, so he had to be careful with what he said.
Mr. Whitlock had been working in corporate for so long that he would not be threatened by Luca's actions. He stood up and
closed the door.
Luca leaned back in the chair and watched Mr. Whitlock sit back in the chair indifferently.
"Dr. Craw, the final price of your project has been set. Congratulations," Mr. Whitlock said with a smile on his face.
"Thank you. This is thanks to the efforts of all the researchers and the sea of support from the company." Luca's tone sounded
alienated.
Mr. Whitlock looked at her suspiciously. If someone else heard happy news like that, they would have a big smile on their face.
They would not be indifferent like her...
She acted as if the project had nothing to do with her.
"Yeah, the company has given you a lot of resources. Dr. Craw, I don't think you've given enough back to the company for this
project," Mr. Whitlock continued talking.
Luca's indifference was beyond his expectation, but no matter what, he had to force Luca to hand over the data on hand that
same day.

"Mr. Whitlock, you should've read the market analysis of the project and know this project will bring huge profits to the company
sooner or later. The final price of the project in the market is higher than expected. Why do you think the project's returns to the
company aren't enough?" Luca knew what he wanted and simply pretended to be confused. She silently tapped the back of the
phone twice as she spoke.
"I'm not talking about the project. I'm talking about you." Mr. Whitlock stood up and paced in front of the desk, trying to make it
seem like he was on the right. "The company has given you a lot of resources. We gave you an office and all kinds of money and
resources. Yet you're still keeping the data to yourself at this time. Dr. Craw, do you think you're worthy of the resources the
company has given you?"
"I said that I'll make the data public as long as the professors need it but only within the department. Mr. Whitlock, although the
drug is on the market now, the research data is also a company secret. Do you think what I've disclosed is not enough?" Luca
asked.
"Of course, it's not enough! Your department is not the only one in the company." Mr. Whitlock said, "Well, if you don't want to
disclose everything, you can choose to release it for a limited time so that everyone can see the data. You can also place
restrictions so that they can't bring in a camera or phone.”
"Mr. Whitlock, don't you think this is absurd? Why would staff from other departments of the company, who aren't graduates of
biopharmaceuticals, be interested in this data? Are you the one who's interested in the data?" Luca stood up and did not let him
bother her.
Mr. Whitlock's expression changed. "I'm not from biopharmaceuticals and don't understand the data. What do I want your data
for? Dr. Craw, if I hadn't received the request from the person below, I wouldn't have asked you this three or four times."
"Really? Who requested it?" Luca asked.
"There are many people and departments that asked for it. Anyway, I'm using my role as the general manager to order you to
disclose this data. If you don't disclose it, don't blame me for taking action." Mr. Whitlock was almost roaring toward the end. His
eyes were also a little red because of his terrifying expression.
Luca crossed her hands in front of her chest indifferently and said, "Mr. Whitlock, who do you work for?"
"What?"

"On the surface, your boss is Mr. Crawford, but who's the boss behind you?" Luca asked in a casual tone as she looked down at
her phone screen.
"The boss behind me? What? Don't be nuts. I don't know what you're talking about," Mr. Whitlock snapped at her.
Luca smiled and replied, "I know there's another person behind you. They asked you to get the data, right? What? They want to
copy my data to launch a similar drug and launch a price war to harm Watson Biopharmaceuticals and T Corporation?"
Mr. Whitlock took a step forward with a dark expression on his face.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
"It doesn't matter if you won't admit it, but you should know that I've recorded our conversation just now. You're indeed trying to
get your hands on our project data. If my project data is leaked, it must have something to do with you. Also, if you want to try
anything with me, go for it. Let's see if you can succeed." Luca lowered her voice and warned him.
She was certain that the man behind Mr. Whitlock was not Abel.
If it were Abel, he would just ask her for the data. He did not have the kind of temperament to take such a troublesome route.
"You!" Mr. Whitlock did not expect her to be so straightforward.
Although he had done a lot of things to get the data before, he did not expect that Luca would shed all pretenses of cordiality. He
narrowed his eyes.
Luca put on a faint smile and continued talking, "Mr. Whitlock, what do you want to do to me?"
"I can't fire you, but I won't give you any budget for your next project!" Mr. Whitlock gritted his teeth with hatred. He hated the
company's rules because he could not fire Luca.
He managed all departments except Luca's.
Luca nodded and pretended to be enlightened. She then turned things around and said, "Mr. Whitlock, do you think that you
have a say in my budget? You've done so many things behind Mr. Crawford's back. I wonder why he hasn't fired you yet?"
"What do you mean?" Mr. Whitlock's hands trembled when Luke's name was mentioned.

He was afraid of the man behind him but also of Luke.
No matter who he offended, he would no longer be able to stay in A City, so he must please one party to seek asylum.
Obviously, he would not get anything even if he pleased Luke, so he could only bite the bullet and continue with the mission.
"Does what happened to Dr. Albus have anything to do with you?" Luca continued to misguide him. Even though she knew that
he had nothing to do with the matter, she still said that on purpose.
She wanted him to panic.
"Enough with the nonsense. I'll sue you for defamation!" Mr. Whitlock felt as though his veins were about to burst. He had wanted
to use force to make her compromise.
Unexpectedly, she managed to turn the situation around so easily.
Moreover, her neither soft nor hard attitude made him panic inexplicably.
He thought of how the power behind him had warned him not to look down on Luca just because she was a woman.
He finally understood what the other party meant.
