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

"Okay." That was all Luke said before he held her even tighter in his arm.

Luca was awake now, and she opened her eyes a little. Her vision had adapted to the

darkness, so she pressed her face against his chest and asked, “What did Nina say?"

“When she was waiting for me downstairs, she asked me if you had another identity." Luke

gently caressed Luca's back, and shivers went down her spine as his touch got

increasingly sensual.

Luca was half-asleep, so she did not notice the changes in Luke's movements. Instead, she

frowned and said, "I'll tell her next time. The fewer the people who know about me, the

better."

"Sure," Luke said absent-mindedly.

Luca finally realized what he was doing, so she turned to the side and said, "It's late."

"We have to hurry, then," said Luke. Although he would be disrupting her sleep, his desires

made it impossible for him to just sleep next to her like a gentleman.

As he said that, he leaned forward as things got heated up.

The next day, Luca was exhausted when she got out of bed. She bit her lip at the thought

of Luke tiring her out last night even though he said that he would control himself.

It was like he was making up for the night Rainie had slept in their bed...

Thoughts of last night made Luca's face go red. After touching her face, she stood up and

felt the soreness from her waist all the way to her limbs.

Luca frowned as she stretched by the bed. After loosening up her muscles, she washed up

and put on her work attire before walking out the door.

As she expected, Luke was working in the opposite room.

Then, their eyes met as if they had just read each other's minds.

Although he had given up on sleep last night, he was still in high spirits today. Then, he

smiled. "Good morning."

"Good morning." Once again, Luca was reminded of what happened the night before.

It had happened many times before, but she would still blush every time she thought

about it.

Looking at her shy face, Luke instantly knew what she was thinking about. He asked on

purpose, "Did you have a good night's sleep?"

Her face turned red immediately.

He was doing it on purpose!

How could she have had a good night's sleep when that happened?

"I'll head downstairs for breakfast." Luca ignored his question.

Luke smiled. "Okay. Come back earlier today. I've promised Grandpa we'll have dinner at

the manor."

"Dinner?" Luca stopped in her tracks and recalled her promise before saying, "Right, I

remember now. But Nina's here. Should we bring her along?"

"I'm afraid it's not a good idea to bring Nina to the manor," Luke said tactfully.

Luca nodded and understood what he meant, but she still felt bad about leaving Nina here

alone.

"Aunt Neile is here, so Nina will still have someone to take care of her. Karen won't show

her face here even if I'm not at home," Luke said.

If Nina had known Luca's identity, it would not be a problem for her to tag along.

However, Nina was still oblivious to Luca's true identity, so it would be inconvenient for

Old Master Crawford if he had to be extra cautious with his words.

Luca nodded in agreement with what Luke said. It really was not a good idea, so she had

no choice but to leave Nina behind.

"I'll go get breakfast first. Do you want to eat in your room?" Luca asked.

"Yes, please have Aunt Neile bring it up," said Luke. Ever since Luca came back, he had

been eating three meals a day every day.

Even though she still had a different identity, she was still concerned about his eating

habits.

"Okay." Luca went downstairs and saw the three kids sitting in the dining room, so she

asked curiously, "Is Nina not up yet?"

It was a Friday, so Nina should have work today. Luca was wondering if she should go

wake her up if Nina was still sleeping.

Then, Rainie replied, "Ms. Nina is up, but Mr. Percy called, so she's in the garden."

Luca understood that she wanted to talk to him in private, which was why she went to the

garden. Besides, it was not a good idea for the children to listen to an intimate

conversation between adults.

Luca nodded and said, "We're going to the manor tonight. Do all of you have a change of

clothes there?"

"Yes, it's a Saturday tomorrow, so we can wear our own clothes," Lanie said. Since they

were having dinner at the manor, he knew that they would be staying the night. Luca

would not have asked them otherwise.

"Okay, then. Enjoy your breakfast," said Luca. Through the window, she saw Nina sitting

under the pavilion in the garden, talking to Percy on the phone.

She could not see her face, so she did not know if the swelling on Nina's face had subsided

overnight.

After Aunt Neile served breakfast, Luca said, "Aunt Neile, Mr. Crawford wants to eat

upstairs. Could you please bring some food up for him?"

"Yes, Ms. Craw." Aunt Neile nodded.

Just as Luca picked up a spoon and was about to eat, Nina entered after ending the call.

“Good morning," Nina greeted Luca smilingly.

“Good morning. Have you finished your call with Mr. Percy?" Luca teased her and looked at

her face.

Nina blushed. Percy was worried about her, so he called her early in the morning before

she went to work.

"Yes." She nodded.

Then, Luca added, "You newlyweds are still in your honeymoon phase. There's nothing to

be embarrassed about. Also, the swelling on your face seems to have subsided a little."

Nina touched her face gently and nodded. "Yeah, you made me put ice on it so many

times yesterday. I'm sure it'll go down even more today."

When she arrived yesterday, Luca helped put some ice on her face.

Then, before going to sleep, Luca put more ice cubes on it again.

She did not know whether it was the ice, but she barely felt any pain on her face when she

went to bed last night.

She expected the pain to get even worse at night, and she was certain that she would be

tossing and turning from the unbearable pain. However, she did not expect to fall asleep

right after talking to Luke.

The redness and swelling on her face did not affect her at all.

"Put some ice on it before going to work. I have to rush to work, so I'll ask Aunt Neile to

help you," said Luca. She did not tell Nina that she had put some medicinal powder on the

ice pack before putting it on her face.

The powder spread across her face, relieving the pain.

It was the reason she could sleep last night.

The effects of the medicine could only last one night, so the pain would return after Nina

got out of bed even if the swelling had subsided.

She would have to continue with the ice packs for the next three days.

"There's no need to trouble Aunt Neile. I can do it myself." Nina shook her head, not

wanting to trouble Aunt Neile.
