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

On the other hand, Leia was annoyed. She could not get through to Mandy's phone.
Every time she dialed, it would say that her phone had been turned off.
"Why would she turn off her phone at this time?" Leia dialed her number again, but her phone was still turned off. She gave up
the thought of calling her, but she could not help but feel a pang of unease.
Could it be that Mandy had run away?
Leia thought for a moment and concluded that it was actually possible!
Mandy had American citizenship. Hence, she could head there without dealing with the hassle of getting a visa and such.
If she ran to New York, there was no way the local police would arrest and apprehend her even if Matysh exposed her. Moreover,
Mandy did not commit a serious crime. Even though she might have to go to jail, she could live peacefully in the future without
returning to the country.
Leia felt anxious.
Even though Mandy had escaped, it was unlikely that she would be caught by the police. Matysh knew not only Mandy's
information but also Leia's.
If Mandy had escaped, she would have to escape as well.
Leia rolled out of her bed, opened a drawer, and found her passport.
She quickly packed her things when she realized her visa had not expired. Fortunately, Jack wanted to send her back to New
York back then. Thus, he forced her to renew her visa.
After checking the validity period of her visa, Leia took out her suitcase and planned to pack her luggage and book a plane ticket
to leave.
She was not worried about not being able to book a last-minute ticket. After all, there were plenty of flights from A City
International Airport to New York every day. She could not be bothered with the details as long as she arrived in New York.
Leia knew she would only be safe after she got out of A City.

Sura shook her head when she heard the noises coming from Leia's bedroom. Judging from the loud noises she made, it
seemed like she was planning to run away!
Sura cleared her throat and knocked on the door. Then, she asked, "Ms. Norman, are you okay?"
Leia ignored her.
Sura continued, "Ms. Norman, your father called."
Leia paused for a moment.
Jack and Queenie had had zero communication with her over this period. Whether it was a phone call or when she was on the
VIP floor of the hospital, Jack and Queenie had always refused to meet her and ignored her.
Why bother calling her now?
Leia walked out of her room suspiciously, wondering if she had misheard what Sura said. "Who?"
Sura peeked through the door crack and saw the suitcase Leia had placed on the floor. There were a few clothes on top that
were not folded properly. The sleeves dragged on the floor.
"It's your father, Mr. Norman. Oh, your father is Jack Norman, right?" Sura withdrew her gaze and put a smile on her face when
she talked.
Leia put a lid on the doubts lingering in her mind and walked toward the landline that was in the living room.
The receiver was placed to the side, not covered, clearly indicating that someone had answered the call and then left the phone
aside.
Leia picked up the receiver. She hesitated for a moment and spoke with an anxious tone, "Hello?"
Jack's voice came through. "Your mother and I will be officially discharged from the hospital today. Come back to the villa. Let's
have a meal together."
Leia's heart raced uncontrollably.
They were going home?

They had not said anything to her all this while, nor had they given any updates to the public. That was why rumors had been
spreading like wildfire on the internet.
The most credible news was that Mr. and Mrs. Norman were seriously injured and recuperating in the hospital. They did not want
too much attention, which was why they did not announce the specific details to the public.
Leia almost believed that.
After all, given the circumstances back then, it was most likely that Mr. and Mrs. Norman had suffered brain injuries.
If their brains were injured, they would need to stay in the hospital for one or two months.
One or two months would not be enough for a complete recovery, which could explain why there had been no news from them.
However, Jack suddenly told her that they were being discharged and asked her to come home for a meal...
Jack wanted Leia to stay far away from them back then!
Leia's doubts grew stronger. She could not help but stutter, "Dad, how are you doing? How's Mom?"
"Let's talk about it when you come back home. Don't come back alone. Have someone keep you company." Jack sounded stiff,
but at least he said what was on his mind.
Leia wanted to say something more, but Jack hung up the call.
The busy tone came from the other end of the line. Leia furrowed her brows as she thought about the situation.
Jack got discharged from the hospital after she was discharged.
Previously, Leia suspected that either Jack or Queenie was seriously injured, and the doctors and nurses were blocking the
news. They even tried to stop the daughter of the Norman family from visiting her parents.
Perhaps it was because Jack suspected that she was involved in the matter, and that was why he deliberately avoided her.
Now, not only had Jack been discharged, but he also wanted to see her. Leia could not figure out the reason behind it.
In any case, she had to return home and try to get some information out of Queenie.
After all, it was impossible for her to get Jack to talk.

Leia hung up the call and walked to the kitchen. Then, she said to the maid, "I'm going back to Norman Residence. Come with
me."
The maid gave her a troubled look.
Before Jack called Leia, he had already instructed the maid that she did not have to follow Leia and told her to let Sura follow her
if she wanted to return to Norman Residence.
The maid intended to follow the instructions of the Norman family since it was Jack who paid her. She said in an apologetical
tone, "Ms. Norman, I'm sorry, but I can't leave right now. How about having Sura accompany you?"
Leia noticed the bunch of ingredients on the kitchen counter. She could not help but feel annoyed. "Who told you to buy so many
vegetables? And you're telling me that you're busy? Can't you handle things properly?"
The maid replied helplessly, "These are the dishes you specifically requested to have last night..."
Leia was at a loss for words. She was dissatisfied with the dinner she saw last night. She thought the maid had prepared dishes
that were too simple, so she requested her to prepare a table full of various dishes.
The maid agreed. After all, Leia just needed to take food with less salt and oil.
"Forget it, I won't be having lunch today. Put the things in the refrigerator and prepare them later in the afternoon. I'd like to have
freshly prepared dinner when I come back in the evening," said Leia. She knew she would be spending quite some time at
Norman Residence today.
If she got the maid to accompany her, she would have to rush to make dinner tonight.
"Okay." The maid let out a sigh of relief when Leia did not insist on her coming along.
Leia then turned to look at Sura.
Sura always had that smile on her face.
It seemed like she never stopped smiling.
However, Leia hated it. "Can you stop smiling? You look ugly!"

Sura was speechless. Did Leia think she wanted to smile at her? It was all just an act. Sura had never smiled more than she had
in her entire life when she was keeping an eye on Leia during this period of time.
"Okay." Sura stopped smiling.
Leia found her more pleasing to the eye and said, "I'm going to Norman Residence later. Pack your things and come with me."
"Okay," replied Sura.
"By the way, my mother previously bought a lot of supplements. Where did you put them?" Leia asked the maid. There was no
way she could go back to Norman Residence empty-handed.
