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

On Saturday morning, Luca received two pieces of good news from the hospital.
One was that Old Man Rayne's postoperative condition was stable, and his body indicators were improving. He had been moved
to a regular ward. The other good news was that Sarah's condition had stabilized. Arrangements could be made for Marcos to
meet her.
Luke also received the same news.
Luke saw the faint smile on Luca's face and said, "I've arranged for a caretaker for Old Man Rayne. We can visit him anytime."
"Okay. Remind the caretaker not to take Old Man Rayne out and wander around." Luca nodded. The last time she entered the
ICU ward with Johann, Old Man Rayne was awake and was able to recognize her.
Luca briefly explained why she was at the hospital at that time.
She was worried about Old Man Rayne after she found out that he was sick. That was why she was at the hospital. At the same
time, she also reassured him that she would keep a close watch on his condition.
Therefore, Luca could show up at the hospital next time and it would not seem out of place.
Old Man Rayne's appreciation for her visits was evident. He was happy and welcomed her to visit him.
"Yes. I've already instructed them. Also, the maid at the Rayne family's house won't be coming to the hospital." Luke was
meticulous in his arrangements.
The maid knew that Wanda had not gone on a trip but was receiving treatment at the hospital.
However, if she showed up at the hospital and was seen by Wanda, it might raise suspicions and Wanda would be reminded of
Old Man Rayne. Hence, the maid who had been working at the Rayne family's house would continue to manage the villa's
cleanliness.
Wanda did not know the maid from the Crawford family. She could help to take care of Old Man Rayne.
Once his health improved, they would try to avoid moving around outside the hospital room to prevent any encounters with
Wanda on the same floor.

Luca understood that all these arrangements were for the well-being of both Old Man Rayne and Wanda. A warm feeling of
gratitude welled up inside her, yet she could not find the words to express it.
Luke could sense the affection in Luca's gaze. His eyes now carried a hint of gentleness.
"Everything is getting better," said Luke.
Even though Luca had no blood ties with the Rayne family, they had taken care of her when she was young, resulting in a deep
bond of affection.
Luke's role was to look after the Rayne family in her place.
Luca agreed with a nod. Luke was right. It looked like everything was getting better.
She recalled the time when she was still in university. She had no money to afford medical treatment for Kevin. Everything had
seemed overwhelming and hopeless back then.
When comparing it to the present, even though her situation was complicated, having Luke around to take care of them made
everything seem less daunting. Things were looking up.
"Should we have Mr. Marcos come to the hospital to meet Ms. Poplar?" asked Luca, recalling that she had seen photos of
Marcos' parents.
Marcos was a complete reflection of his father, and he held no resemblance to Sarah.
Thus, when Luca first met Sarah, she did not find her particularly familiar.
However, Luca believed that Sarah would definitely recognize him when she saw Marcos.
"Yes, but Marcos is busy during the day. He has to go to the detention center," replied Luke. "I've arranged for them to meet in
the evening."
Luca was not too interested in when they would meet. When she visited Sarah for the past few days, she had tried to inquire
about her son.
Sarah kept her guard up when talking about that topic.
Still, Luca could still sense that Sarah missed her son, whom she had not seen in over 20 years.

If it were not for the Abaza family relentlessly pushing Sarah toward a dead-end, she would not have had to hide on the outskirts
of A City for over two decades, too afraid to show her face.
Luca asked again, "Is Mr. Marcos going to the detention center because of Matysh?"
"Yes." Luke nodded. "All the evidence has come together now, and Matysh has been arrested. The next step is the trial."
Mandy's recording further proved that Matysh was the mastermind behind the Norman family's home invasion case, and it also
implicated Leia's involvement in the case.
Meanwhile, another suspect in the case had also been arrested.
Walter acted swiftly and obtained crucial evidence from multiple sources.
With the mounting evidence, Matysh's involvement in the rape case was substantiated.
Even if they were to hire a top-notch lawyer, Matysh would not be able to escape these charges.
Ethan, who had been handling Matysh's case, realized this and tried various strategies, but it was all in vain.
Also, Matysh was not pleased with Shandra's candor.
Despite her repeated explanations that she could not help to clear his charges completely and could only aim to minimize the
sentence, Matysh terminated the agreement.
This was what Marcos told Ethan.
No matter how Ethan tried to persuade him, Matysh insisted on terminating the agreement with Shandra.
After Shandra readily agreed, she signed the agreement to terminate the retainer and left.
Ethan received a barrage of scoldings from Matysh. After returning to the hotel, Ethan vented his frustrations to Marcos about
the situation.
After that, Marcos looked into the details of the retainer termination.
While Shandra was not continuing to work as Matysh's lawyer, Walter did not plan to let go of the case and continued working on
the retainer's tasks, preparing for the trial to send Matysh to prison.

"That's good," Luca murmured as she listened to Luke talking about Matysh's situation.
Even though Matysh was not facing trial in his own country, it was evident that this was where the fairest judgment would take
place.
It also provided some solace to the women who had suffered because of Matysh...
"Let's go. It's about time. We should get going." Luke glanced at the time and picked up the two gift bags Aunt Neile placed on
the coffee table.
Luca had prepared some herbal medications for Queenie. They were intended to be delivered to the Norman family.
Luke had arranged lunch for today. Even if Old Man Rayne was discharged from the ICU, he would still have to take the kids to
Norman Residence at noon.
Luke guessed that Zander was probably on his way to Norman Residence with the kids.
"Alright." Luca gave herself a mental jolt and smiled. Then, she walked out of the room with Luke.
The brilliant sunlight painted the garden with unabashed splendor as it cascaded over the lush foliage. Blooming flowers marked
the dawn of a day with an air of exuberance.
Luca soaked in the warmth around her, enjoying the comfort it brought.
All worries seemed to vanish into thin air at this moment. She knew that the fervent embrace of summer was just around the
corner.
