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

"The project in Europe isn't a small project. They were interested in working with T Corporation for the design, and they hope that
Luke can be involved in this. But T Corporation has a busy schedule and they declined the offer. I promised the client that I could
make T Corporation work together with me to get the design drawing. That's why they gave the project to me,” explained Lonnie
as he noticed Louis and Yuri walking out of the house.
"Come on. Let Louis make a referral." Lonnie urged his wife, who was so close with Susan that even Louis addressed her as
Aunt Margaret.
Hence, Louis could help to make a referral and arrange a meeting with Luke.
With Louis' help, Lonnie was confident that if he could talk with Luke, the project was bound to succeed.
Even if T Corporation was swamped with projects, they could spare some time to help with the design drawing.
"Stop this nonsense!" Mrs. Jackman refused to do so. She shook his hand off.
"What's with the attitude?!" Lonnie thought she was mad at him and that was why she refused to pull the strings. "If I lose money,
your good life will be gone too!"
"Fine. I'll tell you the truth!" Mrs. Jackman scowled, realizing that they had attracted the attention of the people around them. She
pulled him and led him to a corner of the front yard.
Lonnie saw how reluctant she was. He had no choice but to promise her, "If you can help me make a referral, I'll dump that
woman and never contact her again!"
Mrs. Jackman felt upset.
Previously, she had tried various ways to force Lonnie to break up with his mistress, but he had never shown any intention of
doing so.
Now, he promised her that he would dump his mistress for the sake of a design project. It was clear how much profit this project
could bring to the company.
Otherwise, Lonnie would not have promised her that he would dump that woman.
"It's not that I refuse to help, but there's no way I can help this time," explained Mrs. Jackman as her eyes reddened.

If she had suppressed her emotions and not vented her anger on Luca on behalf of Susan, perhaps Lonnie would really have
been able to sever ties with his mistress. No one would be able to interfere with their married life in the future, and Lonnie could
elevate his business to new heights.
She would be able to have a harmonious marriage and a better life...
However, Mrs. Jackman regretted what she did. What she had done to Luca turned all possibilities into illusions...
"You're still mad at me!" Lonnie grumbled with annoyance. He had promised to do what she wanted most, but she still disagreed
to help him. She was petty and resentful indeed!
"Forget it. Let me tell you the truth!" Mrs. Jackman had no choice but to reluctantly recount what had happened in the backyard
earlier. Her eyes were red and teary.
After Lonnie listened to her, he lifted his hand in frustration, but he put it down again helplessly.
There were too many people around. Lonnie suppressed the urge to slap her in the face. He clenched his teeth, wishing that he
could split open his wife's head to see what was in her mind and find out why she was so eager to ruin the Jackman family.
"You, Margaret Sutton, you've got a real knack for it! How could you do such a thing? You're pulling the Jackman family into the
abyss with you!"
Margaret bit her lip and struggled to hold back her grievances. She murmured in a low voice, "Why are you blaming me? It's all
your fault. You've been keeping everything from me ever since that wh*re showed up. You don't even talk to me about the
company's affairs anymore! If I had known about this project, would I have done something to that woman?!"
"Fine. Fine. You're blaming me instead!" Lonnie took a deep breath as he felt a sharp pain in his chest. He pointed at Margaret's
face and said coldly, "You know what kind of situation the company is in now.
Margaret, you made this mess. You'd better figure out how to fix it. If the company shuts down because of you, I won't spare
you!"
His company had been struggling to survive because of the failed investment he made at the end of last year.
Lonnie only managed to get the project after he claimed that he had connections with the Crawford family, hoping to use that to
help the company overcome its difficulties and earn a fortune.

However, Margaret had shattered that hope.
Lonnie stormed out, throwing his sleeves in anger.
Margaret watched him from behind. Her eyes reddened with tears streaming down her face. She stood there with a blank look on
her face, ignoring how the others looked at her.
Yuri noticed Lonnie storming away furiously and glanced at Margaret, who stood still. She nudged Louis' elbow.
"What's wrong?" Louis lifted a glass of red wine and took a sip of it. He was still upset and he needed the wine to calm himself
down. He feared that he would lose his manners in front of the guests.
"It seems like Mrs. Jackman and her husband had a falling out..." Yuri said in a soft tone and narrowed her eyes. "She's crying."
"Don't meddle in their affairs," Louis warned Yuri to stay out of Mrs. Jackman's business.
Luke would handle it eventually.
Yuri's involvement would make no difference.
Margaret injured Luca. Luke would not sit there and do nothing.
Yuri withdrew her gaze and turned to look at Louis. She had never noticed how callous he could be, but she felt that he was cold
today.
He lacked sympathy, and he was cold and ruthless.
He was Luke's brother. If he pleaded for mercy for Margaret, Luke might not investigate the matter further, but he refused to do
so.
There must be a reason for this. It could be because he was mad at Susan.
Still, could anger alone turn someone into such a different person?
Yuri watched Louis walk back into the crowd with a gentle smile on his face, chatting with the guests as if his earlier outburst in
the living room had never happened.

She gathered her courage and prepared to approach him but was stopped by the maid. "Ms. Dunn, the madam is looking for
you," said the maid.
"Where is she?" asked Yuri.
"She's in the backyard," replied the maid.
"Tell her that I'm busy entertaining guests with Louis at the moment. I'll come to see her when I'm free," said Yuri. She was not
planning to leave her guests alone to find Susan.
Besides, there was nothing urgent that Susan needed to tell her, except for the incident involving Margaret and Luca earlier.
"Wait a minute," Yuri called out to the maid.
"What else do you need, Ms. Dunn?" asked the maid.
"Tell her that Master Luke doesn't intend to let this slide easily. He'll report to the police after the party ends. Tell her to inform the
parties involved," instructed Yuri. She knew there was nothing she could do to help Margaret, but at least she could inform Susan
of Luke's intentions.
Perhaps they could leave before the police arrived and avoid being seen by others.
"Okay." The maid nodded and left.
Yuri approached Louis and held his arm with a smile as they greeted the guests.
"Why did the maid approach you?" Louis whispered to her during a lull in their conversation.
