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

Old Master Crawford was quite tall when he was young. Hence, Luke was also quite tall.
However, the old master's stature had shrunk a little as he aged. Consequently, the pajamas prepared for Luke were a bit
oversized for both Old Master Crawford and Mr. Griffin.
Nina noticed Luca's hesitation and said, 'It's okay. It's just for one night, and we won't be going out. Comfortable sleepwear is all
that matters."
“Okay. Let's go with these two sets, then. There aren't any other clothes suitable for Old Master Crawford and Mr. Griffin." Luca
placed one set with a darker color by the bed after that.
This way, Old Master Crawford could wash up and change his clothes when he came upstairs later.
Luca took out another set of bedsheets, planning to change the bedding in the maid's room as well.
After changing the bedding in the maid's room, the kids were done watching their cartoons.
As the ending song played, Luca walked out of the maid's room. The three kids stood up with satisfied looks and headed
upstairs.
Old Master Crawford pulled Luke aside and asked, "Got a moment?"
"Grandpa, you want to play chess again?" Luke immediately understood what his grandfather wanted.
"Yes, I'm not a child. It's too early for me to get to bed now," replied Old Master Crawford.
"Grandpa, you can play chess with Mr. Griffin. Let me get the chessboard for you," said Luke as he stood up.
"Ah, you little..." Old Master Crawford watched Luke leave and frown. "Are you avoiding a game with me because you think I'm
easily defeated? Not feeling up for a challenge?"
"Old Master Crawford, the bed is ready. I prepared a new set of sleepwear on the bed. It's just that the sleepwear is tailored for
Luke, so it might be a bit too long for you and Mr. Griffin," explained Luca.
"It doesn't matter as long as there's something for me to change into." Old Master Crawford did not mind. Even though he was
not a neat freak like Luke, ever since his quality of living improved, he insisted on changing into clean clothes every day.

Wearing Luke's sleepwear for a night would not matter. He could have the driver bring a set of fresh clothes when he came to
pick them up tomorrow.
As long as he did not go out wearing Luke's clothes, the length of the sleepwear did not matter.
Once Old Master Crawford finished his words, the doorbell rang again.
Luca slightly furrowed her brows. It was pouring rain outside, and no one would come over in such weather.
Moreover, they usually did not get many visitors.
“Who could it be?" Nina could not help but ask curiously.
Even if people knew where Luke or Percy lived, they usually would not disturb them.
Although some people were interested in chatting with them, they were also afraid of interfering with their lives. That was why
they rarely came to disturb them.
Even close friends would usually call ahead to check if it was convenient for them to come over.
Nina did not hear about anyone making a visit today, and it was pouring outside.
Who would go out at a time like this...
"It's probably Madam Crawford," said Luca as she shot a glance at Old Master Crawford.
When Old Master Crawford realized it might be Susan, his concerns deepened. "Why would she come?"

"I think she's here to ask about Mr. Louis," said Luca as she approached the video doorbell screen. It turned out to be Susan,
indeed.
Susan was standing at the villa entrance with an umbrella in the pouring rain.
The image shown on the screen was quite frightening.
"It's Madam Crawford." Old Master Crawford was still around, and he only came here to avoid Susan. Luca hesitated to
immediately open the door. Instead, she turned to look at Old Master Crawford.
Old Master Crawford frowned. "Is she crazy, coming here in such heavy rain?"
Luca could not say for sure what Susan wanted at the moment. Susan was already standing outside, and Luca only needed to
follow Old Master Crawford's decision.
If he did not want Susan to come in, she was not planning to let her in.
"Don't let her in. She's annoying," said Old Master Crawford. He was not concerned that Susan might stand outside in the rain.
The villa next door belonged to Louis. She could go back there right away.
"Okay." Luca got the message from Old Master Crawford and decided not to let Susan in.
At that moment, Luke came down holding a chessboard. He asked, "Is it Mother who came?"
"How did you know?" asked Old Master Crawford. Then, he recalled something and furrowed his brows again. "Does she often
come to bother you?"

"Not often, just these few days when Louis started arguing with her," replied Luke nonchalantly.
Luca thought that Luke's words would only make Old Master Crawford dislike Susan even more.
"What a troublemaker. She kicked her son out and she's now shamelessly looking for him everywhere. She's really gone crazy."
Old Master Crawford looked at the chessboard in Luke's hands and decided to ignore Susan.
Then, he directly said, "Luke, you're playing chess with me today, no excuses."
"Grandpa, didn't we play enough yesterday?" Luke asked directly.
A normal person would avoid playing with Luke when he recognized that his chess skills were inferior.
However, Old Master Crawford was not an ordinary person. He was driven by a spirit that thrived on challenges. The more Luke
beat him, the more Old Master Crawford wanted to reclaim the games he had lost.
It was precisely this kind of spirit that enabled him to grow T Corporation so extensively and smoothly hand it over to Luke.
"Grandpa, let's skip it today. I have something to deal with." After Luke finished his sentence, he stood up and looked at Luca. "I
need to use the study."
"Sure, go ahead," Luca nodded, feeling slightly embarrassed. The study was originally his. If it were not for her turning his study
into an office for research, with her experimental equipment stacked up in the room, Luke would not have to work in his
bedroom.
Since Old Master Crawford was staying in that bedroom now, Luke would not use it for office work. He could only use the study.
Old Master Crawford's gaze shifted, and he turned to look at Nina. "Nina, do you play chess?"
"Grandpa, I'm afraid not. I don't even understand the rules," Nina quickly shook her head when she knew that he wanted to play
a game of chess with her. She did not know how to play chess...
"Sigh, no one wants to play chess with an old man," said Old Master Crawford, turning his gaze toward Luca.
He had played chess with Luca before, but her skills were not exceptional. He played with Mr. Griffin frequently, and he had
figured out all his moves. Old Master Crawford thought it would be more interesting to find someone less familiar.

Luca, feeling the pressure of his gaze, had no choice but to say, "Old Master Crawford, I'll play chess with you. But I'm not very
good at it. Don't be disappointed."
"Luca, I know you've always let me win, but don't go easy on me this time. I'd like to see your real skills," Old Master Crawford
said with a cheerful tone.
Luca smiled. She had never let Old Master Crawford win. It was just his way of giving her an excuse to step down.
She sat across from Old Master Crawford and played several rounds of chess with him until it was already 10:00 pm. Mr. Griffin
reminded, "Old Master Crawford, it's already ten o'clock."
