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

“Tell them to cooperate with the police officers. I'll ask Gale to head to the crime scene," said Luke.
Although all his subordinates had undergone special training before, Rain and Gale were more professional when it came to
handling matters and investigating.
There was a higher chance to find out something if he sent Gale to look into the case.
"Got it, Boss," replied Rain.
After Luke ended the call, he walked back toward the ward. He headed to the ward after he threw the lunch boxes in the trash
bin along the hallway.
Queenie had already woken up.
Luca sat by her bedside and listened to her as she talked.
Queenie's speech was slurred due to the concussion, but she was able to speak fluently. There was nothing wrong with her
sentences. She was probably talking about Luca being injured and how she felt sorry for her.
Luca felt suffocated when she heard that. It was she who made the couple suffer, but the two of them apologized to her when
they woke up.
"Mrs. Norman, rest well. Get more sleep. You'll feel better when you wake up tomorrow," replied Luca. If it was only a
concussion, their condition would get better by the day.
"I heard the door opening. Who came in?" Queenie asked.
Luca lifted her head and turned to look at Luke. "It's Mr. Crawford."
"Oh, it's Luke..." Queenie paused for a moment and called his name, "Luke."
"Yes, Mom." Luke walked toward them and stood behind Luca. Then, he looked at Queenie.
"Luke, your father and I are in the hospital. Can you please handle the matter for us.." said Queenie. Luca had told her what the
current situation was just now.
"Don't worry. Leave it to me." Luke frowned when he saw the depressed look on Queenie's face.

Luca would feel upset too when she saw how upset Queenie was. "Mom, get some rest. You'll be able to get discharged from the
hospital soon."
"How can I have a good rest." Queenie shot another glance at Luca's bandaged hand. She could still vividly remember the scene
of Luca choosing to become the hostage to save her.
She had no blood ties with Luca, but when she was in such a dangerous situation, Luca stepped forward and said that she would
replace Queenie and become the hostage instead.
Even though those men had come for Luca from the start...
Luca helped Queenie to get out of danger.]
Queenie remembered what Jack had told her before in a daze.
Perhaps she should not have been so defensive toward Luca. She would never hurt them. Luca's presence and everything she
did was for the couple's sake.
“Mrs. Norman, let's talk about it when you're feeling better." Luca convinced her in a soft voice, knowing that Queenie was
worried.
"Where's Leia? Is she alright?" Queenie immediately asked when she remembered her only daughter who was by her side.
Luke sneered, and when Luca was about to say something, he said, "How could something happen to the person who was
hiding behind the sofa the entire time?"
Queenie closed her eyes. It set her mind at ease when she found out that Leia was fine, but she suddenly remembered that Leia
had been hiding behind the sofa all along when it happened. She was constantly screaming, which caught those men's attention.
Besides, she even told them her and Jack's identity.
Queenie suddenly felt upset again.
If Leia had not screamed and stayed calm, Jack would not have had to experience this.
Although Jack had served in the army before, it was a long time ago, and he had been busy with government affairs. All the skills
he had learned when he was in the army had been completely forgotten. Besides, Jack only got injured because he wanted to
protect her.

Luca, someone who had no blood ties with them, was willing to put herself in danger to save them.
On the contrary, Leia, who was adopted and raised by them for years despite them sharing no blood ties.
Queenie came to realize that that was how much their mother-and-daughter relationship was worth at this moment.
Luca gave Luke a helpless look. They both knew that this had something to do with Leia.
Hence, Luke got even more upset at Leia when Luca got injured. Luca could understand why, but Queenie was a sensitive
person. It would upset her if he said something like that in front of her.
"Mrs. Norman, Ms. Norman isn't injured. Don't worry." Luca kept her in the dark about Leia being admitted to the hospital and the
fact that she was downstairs.
It would be better not to let Queenie worry about Leia.
Overthinking would not make her feel any better and recover faster.
"Okay. Luke, Luca, we're fine. Both of you don't have to stay here. Go home." Queenie could feel the drowsiness hitting her. She
fell deeply asleep after a while.
Luca noticed that Queenie had fallen asleep. She turned around and said to Luke in a soft voice, "Mr. Crawford, I'd like to have a
word with you."
"Let's go to the balcony," Luke suggested. Luke opened the door leading to the balcony in the ward.
Luca followed him out to the balcony. After the door was closed, no one in the ward could hear their conversation.
“What do you want to tell me?" Luke asked.
“Don't let Mrs. Norman know that Ms. Norman is admitted to the hospital." Even though Luca knew Leia deliberately said that
she was feeling unwell as she wanted to get admitted to the hospital to escape from the crime scene and avoid giving a
statement to the police, Luca did not want Leia's matter to affect Jack and Queenie.
“I've informed the caretaker. Don't worry. The first thing Dad said when he woke up was to remind the doctors and nurses on this
floor not to let Leia come in and disturb them," said Luke. Jack was the only clear-headed person in the Norman family. He could
see Leia's true colors.

“Okay." Luca nodded. The doctors and nurses would surely listen to Jack's instructions. They dared not to upset him.
"Let's go in. It's cold out here." Luke did not mention going home. He knew Luca wanted to stay here for a little longer and keep
Jack and Queenie company.
If Luca were still Bianca, she might even spend a few nights at the hospital to take care of them.
It was just that she was in no position to do that now.
Hence, she could only stay here for a while.
"Alright." Luca nodded and returned to the ward.
The caretaker saw them coming in. She came forward and asked, “Mr. Crawford, Ms. Craw, are you leaving now?"
“No. Why?" Luca asked.
“I just realized that Mr. and Mrs. Norman's family members didn't bring their belongings to the hospital. I was planning to head to
the supermarket downstairs to get them some, but I won't be able to look after the two of them for a while. I was wondering if you
could go downstairs and get some daily necessities for them, or maybe I'll go get them and you can help me to take care of them
for half an hour or so," said the caretaker. She was attentive enough to notice that Jack and Queenie had not brought anything
here. That was why she suggested getting the necessities for them.
“We'll stay here. You can go get them." Luca was worried that she might miss out on something if she went to buy the
necessities. Thus, she asked the caretaker to buy them instead.
Luke took his wallet out. He took a stack of cash out of his wallet and handed it to the caretaker. Then, he said, “Get something
better for them."
“I don't need that much." The caretaker shook her head and took three banknotes while replying, “There's not much that I have to
get for the patients. This will be enough. I'll send the receipt to you later."
