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

"Got it." Percy understood what he meant.
It was already midnight by the time they finished their drinking session.
After drinking, the three had their respective drivers drive them home instead of driving themselves.
Luke sat in the backseat while looking at the bright lights of A City. Even though it was already midnight, the streets were still
lively as if the nightlife was never-ending.
“Boss, do you need me to turn up the heater?" Lliam asked faintly as he looked at Luke through the rearview mirror, who was
silent the entire time.
"No need." Luke withdrew his gaze and leaned back on the chair with his eyes closed. He drank a little too much today, so he
was feeling a little tipsy.
He drank this much not because of Pierre but Luca...
The woman he loved most.
Luke wished that he could just get rid of the Island of Despair for good, but he could not do it yet for the sake of Luca's health.
How long would he have to wait before Luca developed the antidote and escaped the clutches of the Island of Despair?
Lliam's driving was stable, and the road was not busy, so he was able to send Luke back to his mansion in less than half an hour.
After entering the mansion, Lliam opened the back seat door. When he saw that Luke still resting with his eyes closed, he said in
a low voice, "Boss, we're here."
Luke slowly opened his eyes to see the garden illuminated with the lights that Luca had left on for him.
The lamps emitted a warm light at night and were a sign that no matter how late it was, there would always be someone waiting
for him at home.
Luke wobbled a bit when he got out of the car.
Lliam immediately went up to support him. "Boss, let me assist you."

"It's okay. It's getting late, so you should go home. You don't need to get up early to pick me up tomorrow. I'll get another driver."
Luke waved his hand and followed the trail of lights into the house.
Lliam looked at him worriedly as he wondered if he would be alright after drinking so much.
He just stood there and watched Luke walk into the house before turning away once he was out of sight.
When Luke made it into the house, he took off his coat that was reeking of alcohol and sat on the couch.
The maid walked out after hearing noises, and when she saw him, she asked concernedly, “Mr. Crawford, did you just come
back?"
"Yes." Luke leaned against the sofa and planned to sober up first before going upstairs.
"Would you like some hangover tea? Ms. Craw prepared it and said that you should have some when you come back," said the
maid.
"Sure." Luke rubbed his swollen temples.
It had been a long time since he last drank so carelessly, so he was dizzy with a headache when the alcohol hit.
The maid brought out the hangover tea and placed it on the coffee table. "Here, have some, Mr. Crawford."
Luke picked up the cup of warm hangover tea and instantly knew that Luca had thoughtfully placed the cup in hot water to keep
it warm as the bottom of the cup was wet.
He tilted his head back and downed the soup. Immediately after that, his headache was alleviated.
However, he knew that it was just a placebo effect since Luca was the one who prepared the hangover tea for him.
The warm tea slid down his throat and into his stomach. It made him feel warm and cozy...
"Sir, would you like more?" the maid asked as Luca had prepared two cups of tea.
"No need, you can go rest." Luke stood up and headed upstairs.
He gently pushed open the door to Luca's bedroom and walked to the edge of the bed. He did not make much noise and was
about to lie down with his clothes on.

As soon as he tucked himself under the blanket, he heard Luca mumbling, "Luke?"
"Yes, it's me." Luke embraced her.
Luca did not make another sound and quietly fell asleep in his arms.
She could smell his natural scent interweaved with the intense smell of alcohol. It was quite a pleasant smell, and she liked it.
The next day.
After waking up, Luca was about to gently get out of bed when Luke wrapped his arms around her.
"Don't get up so early and sleep with me a little while longer." Luke pressed his head against her as he exhaled his warm breath
onto her neck.
Luca's face was flushed.
"I need to get up and prepare breakfast for the kids.." she whispered. The old Luke never liked sleeping in, but Luca noticed
recently that the later he stayed out the night before, the more he liked sleeping in the next morning.
"They won't go hungry with the maid here." Luke hugged her tightly.
Luca had no choice but to give in.
Now that the maid was living with them, the kids would have a hot breakfast prepared for them when they get up, so she did not
have to worry about it.
Thus, she stayed in Luke's arms.
“I drank with Percy and the others yesterday," Luke said with his eyes closed.
“I know." Luca looked at the window. The sheer curtains partly blocked out the sunlight, but because the heavier curtains were
not drawn, some light still penetrated into the room.
She lowered her gaze to look at the hands resting on her waist, and she was filled with an inexplicable sense of security.
"Percy's people found out who kidnapped Pierre," said Luke.

Luca's heart made a big thump.
Percy found out?
Did that mean that Amur was in danger?
She pretended to remain calm as her back was facing Luke. She asked, "So, you know who kidnapped Mr. Pierre?"
"I don't know who specifically, but I know it's an organization, and this organization does all kinds of bad things to get money from
people." Luke's voice was slightly hoarse, and he held her even closer.
"I see..." Luca heaved a sigh of relief. Good thing he did not know that Amur was the one who did it.
Abel was in X City right now, so Amur was in A City alone. If Luke and the others knew that Amur had something to do with
Pierre's kidnapping, they might pay Amur a visit and cause him trouble.
She knew that it would be hard to choose between her brother and her lover, so she eagerly hoped that both of them would be
fine.
"Then, do you know where Mr. Pierre is right now?" Luca asked tentatively.
"We think he's in X City," Luke said. The moment he said that, Luca's body grew stiff.
If she had not been by his side the entire time, he would have suspected that she was involved in Pierre's kidnapping because of
her reaction.
"Well, if it's in X City, it won't be easy for you and Percy's people to go find him there.." Luca asked with her eyes closed as she
did not want the emotion in her eyes to show although her back was facing him.
He was good at reading people's minds, so if she kept her eyes open, he might actually be able to tell that something was off.
"Yeah, they chose to kidnap him to X City because they think that our people won't go there to investigate." Luke lifted his head
to kiss her on the cheek before saying, "No matter what, Pierre won't die this time."
"They kidnapped him for money, not his life." Luca kept her eyes closed.
Luke raised his eyebrows. If those words came from her mouth, he could almost guarantee that the Island of Despair just
kidnapped Pierre for the money.
