Ch. 1431..1440

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1431-Nina knew that she had no other choice. Jean would not give her their mother’s handbag, and the nurse would not run the tests if she had to go home to bring the debit card.

She could not tell if Anna’s condition was critical, and she could not afford to take the risk.

She nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll borrow some money from you. When I get home later, I’ll transfer the money to your bank account.”

“Give me the bills. I’ll go and pay,” Luca said.

Nina handed the bills to Luca, and Luca went to the payment counter.

Nina turned to speak to the nurse, “My friend is paying the bills now, Miss. Can you schedule the tests for my mother?”

The nurse thought that Nina seemed trustworthy. She nodded and said, “Alright. I’ll bring your mother to the next test then.”

Jean watched Luca as she walked away. Instead of worrying about his mother, he smiled perversely and asked Nina, “Hey, Nina, is that chick your friend?”

“I don’t care if you want to flirt with other girls, Jean, but you’d better not touch her!” Nina warned him. She knew what he was thinking.

Jean ignored her warning. To him, there were only two categories of women: those who caught his interest and those who did not.

Luca happened to belong to the former category.

“Why didn’t you tell me that you have such a high-quality friend? Her figure is not bad, and even though she dresses modestly, those clothes aren’t cheap. Mind introducing her to me?” Jean said.

Nina rolled her eyes at him. “She’s way out of your league.”

Jean was furious when he heard the contempt in her voice. “What do you mean? I’m only like this thanks to your good friend Bianca!”

He blamed his current condition on Bianca.

Nina realized that she could not make Jean change his mind. He had been living in his own world for far too long, and he had an overinflated opinion of himself.

In truth, he was nothing but a total loser.

“Stop blaming Bianca. You should know what you did to her. Let me warn you seriously, she’s way out of your league, and you can’t afford to offend her.” Nina wanted to make it sound serious so that Jean would stay away from Luca.

“Heh, you underestimate me! I’ll charm that friend of yours, Nina, and she’ll be your sister-in-law!” Jean was not going to shy away from a challenge. After all, if Luca were as outstanding as Nina said, he would not have to worry about money for the rest of his life.

Nina rolled her eyes and looked away.

Luca met Johann at the payment counter. After Johann spoke to a patient’s family members, he went toward Luca and said, “Fancy meeting you here, Dr. Craw. Are you feeling unwell?”

Luca shook her head and said, “No. My friend’s mother is in the hospital, and I came along with my friend to see if I can be of any help.”

Johann immediately understood that Luca was paying the bill on behalf of her friend.

“I’m glad to hear that you’re fine. I have to rush to another operation. Bye,” he said and waved his hand.

Luca waved back at him. Her number was called, and she handed the counter the bills and paid for them.

After Johann left, he took out his phone and sent a message to Luke, telling him that he had met Luca at the hospital.

Luca did not know that Johann was such a nosy person. After paying, she left with the receipt.

Nina was still waiting at the same place. When she saw Luca coming over, she went toward her and asked, “How much is it?”

“Not much. Here’s the receipt,” Luca said and handed the receipt and Anna’s documents to her.

The costs included the resuscitation fee and the fees for the tests.

Nina had a rough idea of how much it should cost. She looked at the receipt and saw that the figure was not too far away, so she was sure that Luca did not hide any receipts from her. She smiled and said, “Thank you, Luca. I’ll transfer the amount to you when I get home.”

“There’s no rush,” Luca said, though she did not stop Nina from paying her back.

Jean was eavesdropping on their conversation. He went up to Luca and said, “So your name’s Luca.”

Luca glanced at Jean. She realized that she was once deceived by his fake personality, and he had finally revealed his true colors.

She felt sorry for Nina that her brother was like that.

Nina knew what she was thinking. She pulled Luca behind her and said, “Why are you still standing here like an idiot, Jean? Go and check on Mom!”

Jean pretended not to hear her. He stared at Luca and said, “Hey, my name’s Jean, and I’m Nina’s elder brother. I wanted to ask Nina for your name, but she wouldn’t tell me. Can you give me your phone number? I’ll contact you to pay you back for the bills.”

Nina bit her lower lip. She knew that Jean was not going to pay Luca back.

Luca also knew that. She tried to keep her disgust down and refused politely, “It’s fine. Nina will pay me back.”

“I’m her elder brother, and I’d like to shoulder some of her responsibility too.” Jean did not give up.

Luca might believe him if she had not seen how he treated Nina earlier. She was not an idiot.

She was not going to let Jean harass her, so she said, “If you want to share your younger sister’s responsibility, then you can transfer the money to her, and I’ll get it from her. I don’t give my contact number to strangers.”

‘You fool!’ Jean thought. He was quite frustrated after being rejected twice.

However, he maintained his smile to give a good impression to the beautiful woman. “I can’t trust Nina though. What if she doesn’t give my money to you?”

Nina rolled her eyes again. How dare Jean throw her under the bus just to flirt with Luca?

How shameless!

Nina wished that a hole would appear under her feet and swallow her up so that she would have to deal with that embarrassment of a brother ever again.

“Didn’t you say earlier that you don’t have any money? Where are you getting your money from?” Luca said. She had run out of patience with him.

For some reason, Jean felt his temper rise suddenly. The woman’s words and demeanor made him think of Bianca…

He clenched his fists tightly.

Luca noticed that, and she immediately became wary.

“Are Anna O’Reilly’s family members here?” Just when the situation was becoming tense, they heard a nurse shouting.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1432-“We’re here,” Nina said hurriedly.

The nurse came over while wheeling Anna’s gurney. “We’ve completed all the tests on the patients, and we’ll move her back to the emergency ward for now. The results will be ready in half an hour, and the doctor will discuss the treatment plan with you after that.”

“Alright.” Nina walked over to the gurney and helped the nurse wheel Anna into the emergency ward.

Luca walked next to Nina and held her handbag. Jean, on the other hand, followed behind them. His gaze turned perverse and sinister as he ogled Luca’s body.

He could tell that Luca was in a different league than Nina.

Nina relied on Percy for money. Luca seemed independent. Otherwise, she would not have dressed so modestly.

If he could get her to become his girlfriend, he would not have to worry about money for the rest of his life.

Luca’s fists slowly clenched up as she sensed the gaze behind her. However, she had to remain composed when she was with Nina.

She was not the meek little girl from before. Jean had always found ways to hurt her, but he would not be able to do so now.

If he dared to do anything, Luca would not hesitate to take away his masculinity!

Nina went into the emergency ward with Anna. While they waited for the test results, Anna woke up. She looked at Nina and said nothing, then she looked around the ward for Jean.

When she saw Jean, she asked, “Where’s my handbag?”

Jean knew that she was concerned about the money inside. He pointed at the handbag and said, “Your handbag is with me, Mom. Don’t worry. No one touched the contents inside.”

Anna was relieved to hear that.

Nina was both angry and humiliated when she heard their conversation. To them, was money more important than a person’s life?

“You can’t use that money,” Anna nodded and said weakly.

She stopped speaking after that. Then, she closed her eyes and fell asleep. She was relieved as long as no one touched her money.

Nina turned her head away and sniffled.

She had always wanted to solve her family’s problems, but she was helpless against situations like these.

Luca knew that she was feeling down. She handed the handbag to Nina and smiled empathically.

Nina was comforted by Luca’s warm smile. Sometimes, an empathic smile was better than a thousand words. Luca had seen the situation in Nina’s family, yet she did not pass judgment or try to comfort her with empty platitudes.

Nina was familiar with that feeling. It was as though Bianca was standing next to her.

Half an hour later, the doctor came to the ward with Anna’s test reports.

Nina’s expression gradually dropped as she listened to the doctor.

Anna’s condition was deteriorating. The liver transplant three years ago had been a success, but it was starting to give her problems again.

In the worst-case scenario, she would require a second transplant.

When Luca heard that, she asked, “Is a transplant the only solution? Aren’t there any less intrusive methods?”

“We’ll treat the patient with non-intrusive methods for now. If her condition doesn’t improve, we might have to consider another transplant,” the doctor said.

Nina remained worried even though the doctor said that a transplant might not be necessary.

After everything that had happened to her in the past three years, her optimism was nowhere to be seen. What was left was endless pessimism.

“That’s good to hear, Doctor,” Luca said.

“I’ll prescribe her some medication for now. If the medication works, she’ll be taking that for the long term. If her condition continues to decline, we can still arrange for a transplant. I’ll leave the decision up to you,” the doctor said.

Luca sneaked a glance at Nina. Her expression remained wooden, as though she could not accept the fact.

Anna had relentlessly bullied Nina over the years, and the only reason why Nina cared for Anna was their blood ties. Now, Anna needed her help again.

“We’ll follow what you say,” Nina said.

“Alright. You can go and apply the inpatient procedure with the patient’s documents. Then, hand the receipt to the nurses’ station, and someone will come and bring her to her room,” the doctor said and handed Nina the admission form.

If Anna had to be hospitalized, it meant that Nina needed to come up with more money.

Luca took the form and said, “I’ll handle it.”

“Sorry to trouble you,” Nina said and nodded. She had not a single cent on her now.

Luca went to the payment counter and settled the payment. Then, she gave the receipt to Nina. Everything after that was none of her business.

She did not want to be a nuisance to them, so she told Nina that she would be leaving.

When Jean heard that, he went to her eagerly and said, “I’ll send you back, Ms. Craw.”

“Don’t worry about it. If you have time, you should spend it on your mother,” Luca said as she glanced at Anna on the bed. She could tell that her complexion was terrible.

Any liver problems would be reflected in one’s complexion.

Luca was quite perplexed. A liver transplant patient would have to return to the hospital regularly for check-ups, and the doctor would diagnose any problems and treat them as soon as possible.

However, Anna’s condition seemed quite serious. The decline of her condition was easily seen on her face, so how could they be so careless?

Dear Readers Books Are Daily Updated Click On Link Below To Join Our Official Telegram Group To Get Latest Books Updates..novelbin

Luca thought for a while and understood. If Anna only cared about money and Jean cared about bullying his younger sister, no wonder Anna’s condition was allowed to decline.

Nina rarely went home because she did not want to face her mother or brother, and there was no use relying on Jean to take care of Anna.

Jean did not give up. “Don’t be like that, Ms. Craw. You’ve helped us a great deal today. At least let me return the favor.”

The next moment, Luca’s expression turned frigid. “Save it. You’re going to send me back in a cab anyway. I might as well catch a cab on my own.”

Jean felt humiliated by Luca’s words. His gaze instantly became distant.

Luca did not care. She hoped that he would give up.

“It’s not safe to take a cab alone…” Jean remained insistent.

Nina could not bear watching the cringeworthy scene. She said, “I’ll send Dr. Craw home. You stay here and take care of Mom.”

“Why?” Jean was unwilling.

“I have to go home later to bring Mom’s toiletries. I can’t expect you to have brought them, or are you planning to buy them here? If you can give me the money to buy the toiletries, I’ll stay here and take care of Mom,” Nina said.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1433-Jean could only relent.

He did not want to spend his own money, but Nina did not have any money with her either.

Seeing that Jean had nothing else to say, she took Luca’s hand and led her out of the ward.

The two women went to the basement parking lot without saying a word. After they got into Nina’s car, Nina broke the silence. “I’m sorry that you had to see that.”

“It’s fine,” Luca said as she fastened her seatbelt. “Every family has its own problems. I can understand that.”

Nina sighed as she stepped on the gas pedal. She said, “That brother of mine isn’t anyone decent. I think he has his eye on you, so you ought to be careful. Let me know if he starts harassing you. I’ll give him an earful.”

“He can’t harass me,” Luca said. She was not going to hold back.

She thought that Nina had nothing to apologize for. After all, her brother was irredeemable…

If she had not appeared at the hospital today, Jean would not have set his sights on her.

“In any case, you’ll have to be careful. He’s been a different person ever since he got out of prison. Even I have to be wary of him,” Nina said. If she did not, Jean might have looted the mansion clean.

Luca smiled. “Maybe he needs a job.”

“I’ve recommended him to a few places, but he’s greedy and lazy. He can’t do anything well, so I eventually gave up,” Nina said with a sigh.

The car arrived at Luca’s apartment. Luca said thanks to Nina, then stepped out.

After watching Nina’s car leave, she slowly returned to the apartment.

She remembered the days when she and Jean were studying overseas. Jean back then was sensible and respectful, and she did not remember if he had any bad habits.

Things were so different now…

Jean’s personality had totally changed. She would not have recognized him if not that his face was unforgettable.

Was she the catalyst that caused his change?

Luca did not think she had to be sorry for what happened to Jean. However, she thought that she owed Nina so much. Jean would not have revealed his true colors if that incident had not happened, and Nina would not have to suffer so much.

Luca sighed…

After leaving Luca’s neighborhood, Nina went back to the mansion. She hesitated for a long time before linking the bank account with Percy’s money to her banking app, then transferred the money she owed Luca.

She was very unwilling to access the bank account…

She tried to save up to repay Percy the money he spent on her. Unfortunately, Anna’s illness would eat up a large portion of her savings.

Nina looked at the debit card in her hand dejectedly. It seemed that she would not be able to leave Percy for now.

Earlier, she was quite at ease. Once she had enough money, she would be able to break up with Percy, but now…

She could not be relieved when she thought that she would have to stay by that man’s side.

Even so, she could not neglect Anna at the hospital. She knew that she could not rely on Jean.

She transferred some of the money to another bank account, then kept the debit card at a safe place before going to Anna’s house.

Nina packed Anna’s toiletries and some of her other personal belongings, then went to the hospital.

She asked for Anna’s room at the front desk, then went to the room carrying two bags of Anna’s belongings. She had only opened the door when she heard Anna yelling, “Can’t I stay in a private ward? I want to stay in a private ward.”

“Mom, the nurse said that the deposit is only enough for a three-bedder,” Jean said gruffly, which exacerbated Anna’s irritation. When he saw Nina come into the ward, he stood up and said, “What took you so long?”

“It takes time to pack up,” Nina said impassively and placed the bags on the floor.

Anna glanced at her and ordered imperiously, “You’ve come at the right time. Go and pay up. Let the doctor know that I want to stay in a private ward. I’m not going to stay in this dirty three-bedder with other people.”

A private ward cost more than double the three-bedder Anna was in now. Nina was not going to let Anna have her way this time. “Jean’s house is a hundred times dirtier than this, and I haven’t heard you complain about it. You even help him clean up.”

Anna could tell that Nina was not going to obey her. She yelled more loudly, “That’s not the same! We’re family, and a little bit of dirt won’t hurt. I’m in the hospital now, and it’s full of germs. I won’t want to get sick with something else.” novelbin

“If you get sick with something else, the doctors can cure you. You’re lucky to have a bed here, so don’t be so picky. In any case, I can only afford a normal ward,” Nina said.

Earlier, Percy had paid for Anna’s private ward. Since then, Anna thought that she deserved better.

Anna grunted coldly. “I know you have money. Mr. Mallory must be giving you a lot of pocket money every month. You know what you are? You’re a cheapskate. It’s not like I’m asking a lot from you. To think that I’ve suffered so much raising you!” Anna changed her attitude toward Nina after knowing that she was not going to get to stay in a private ward.

“Yes, I’m a cheapskate. This cheapskate paid for your consultation and stay in the hospital. Have I ever mistreated you? I’ve just given you your monthly living expenses. It’s still in your handbag, right? I had to borrow money from my friend to pay the deposit. If I’m a cheapskate, what about Jean? Jean is older than me, and he’s only been a bum ever since he’s released from prison. He’s never given you a single cent, and he’s not paying for your hospital stay this time either. If I’m a cheapskate, what is he then? Is he saving up for something more important? I’m doing my best to sustain your lifestyle, but you’re treating him like some deity that needs constant offerings. Can you be a little more reasonable, Mom?” Nina said.

Jean was getting hot in the face by Nina’s tirade. He pointed a finger at her and said, “Shut up! Mom only wants a better room, but you complain so much. If you don’t want to pay for the room, just keep your mouth shut!”

“I’m only telling it as it is. Why, are you feeling embarrassed? Are you afraid that other people might hear about the loser you really are?” Nina said mockingly.

Other than Anna, there were two other patients with their families in the ward. A total of ten people heard what Nina said.

Naturally, Jean felt extremely humiliated.

Anna was at a loss for a reply for a moment, though she eventually huffed, “I only want to change my ward. You don’t have to talk so much. Fine then, I want to get out now. Go ahead and let me die.”

“Alright, then. Here are your documents. You can let the doctor know that you want to be discharged.” Nina took out a bunch of things from her handbag and threw it at Anna.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1434-Usually, Nina would eventually relent. Now that Nina had thrown the documents and bills at her, Anna realized that Nina was not going to yield.

Even though she was not willing to stay in a ward with other patients, she did not want to die either.

She began to gulp mouthfuls of air and pretended that she was in agony. “Nina… you ingrate!” She said as she pointed a finger at Nina.

Nina remained impassive as she looked at her mother. “It’s either you stay in this ward, or you can leave the hospital!” She said insistently.

Jean could hear the determination in her voice. He shoved her away and said, “Get lost! Do you want to see your mother die of anger?”

Nina stumbled backward, though she managed to regain her footing. Jean took the opportunity to ring the bell at the front of the bed.

The nurse quickly came in. “What’s wrong?” She asked.

“Get the doctor. My mom isn’t feeling well!” Jean said.

The nurse immediately stepped out of the ward and called for Anna’s doctor.

The doctor came in and saw that Anna’s face was pale. He got the nurse to help Anna lie flat, then drew the curtains for an examination.

Nina stood calmly outside the curtains. She was not worried at all.

Jean was also standing there, looking at her. He could not help but curse when he saw her that way, “I won’t forgive you if anything happens to Mom.”

“All she wants is to stay in a private ward. There’s nothing wrong with her,” Nina said, feeling a little defeated. None of her family members cared about her situation.

Her father had moved to another city under the excuse of a job because he could not stand Anna and Jean. He lived a frugal life with minimal wages, and he did not care what happened to Nina.

Anna and Nina were like leeches. They mercilessly exploited her, but Nina could not get rid of them.

Jean clenched his fists, preparing to teach his younger sister a lesson. Before he could say anything, the curtains opened.

“How’s my mom, Doc?” Jean asked.

The doctor put his stethoscope away and said, “She’s fine. Her blood pressure was slightly high because she was emotionally agitated. Now that she’s calm again, her blood pressure will return to normal in no time. You’ll have to make sure that she doesn’t get agitated again.”

Anna pretended to sound weak. “Doctor, I don’t think the air in the ward is good for my health. Can I be moved to a private ward?”

The doctor glanced at Nina and Jean. He was roughly aware of the patient’s condition, and the patient had thrown a tantrum when the nurse brought her to the normal ward.

“There is a shortage of private wards now. If the patient’s condition isn’t critical, we recommend that they stay in a normal ward,” the doctor said.

“Isn’t my condition critical enough?” Anna asked. She thought that she deserved special treatment.

“Your condition is stable. Let’s leave the limited resources to those who really need it,” the doctor said. To ensure that she had no other excuse, he said, “If you need anything, you can ring the bell.”

Anna looked at the other two patients in the ward, feeling quite humiliated that the doctor was not on her side.

Nina saw that her mother had almost calmed down. She went over and picked up the documents from the bed.

Anna did not say anything.

After Nina packed up, she said, “I’ll hire a care worker for you.”

Jean grabbed her shoulders when he heard that. “Aren’t you supposed to take care of Mom yourself? A care worker won’t do!”

“I need to go to work so that I can earn money. If you think that a care worker can’t do a good job, why don’t you take care of Mom yourself? It’s not like you have anything else to do at home,” Nina said while giving him the side-eye. He did not contribute anything, yet he was so demanding.

Jean seemed taken aback when he heard Nina’s suggestion. “Do I look like I have the time?” novelbin

“You don’t have money, and you don’t have time. Why don’t you keep your mouth shut?” Nina could not be bothered to be civil toward her brother. She turned around and left the ward.

Jean felt thoroughly humiliated, and he had nowhere to release his anger. He turned to look at Anna on the bed and said, “Mom! Can’t you teach her some manners?”

“Not when I’m like this, Jean. I wish I don’t have to worry about the two of you,” Anna said weakly. Her blood pressure was still high.

Jean tried to absolve himself from any blame. “You don’t have to worry about me, Mom.”

“Jean, you’re already an adult, but you still can’t bring a decent girlfriend home. I wonder if I’ll still be alive on your wedding day,” Anna said with a sigh. She could not bear to scold her son, but she was worried about his future.

Anna did not like the fact that Jean was a jobless bum. The women he brought home had unsavory characters too.

“Don’t worry, Mom. You’ll soon have a decent daughter-in-law!” Jean said.

“You’re only saying that just to make me happy, right? Those women only want our money. You’d better not have any relation with them,” Anna said patiently.

Jean nodded. “I’m not interested in those women anymore, Mom. I have a new target now. I’ve heard that she’s a doctor. Not bad, right?”

Dear Readers Books Are Daily Updated Click On Link Below To Join Our Official Telegram Group To Get Latest Books Updates..

‘Doctor?’

Anna’s eyes widened with delight. “Really? When are you bringing her home? Does she work in this hospital?”

“I don’t know her that well yet. She’s Nina’s friend, and I heard Nina calling her ‘Doctor,’ so I think that she’s a doctor. You like knowledgeable girls, right? You’ll have to help me persuade Nina so that she’ll give me that woman’s phone number. Once I can contact her, she’ll soon be your daughter-in-law!” Jean said.

“Alright, I’ll ask her for it, but this isn’t the time. Your sister is still angry. Once you have her number, you can marry her, and I’ll have a plump little grandson,” Anna said, not considering if the woman would like Jean.

The other two patients in the ward overheard their conversation and could not help but be amazed by how oblivious they were. It was as though that woman would marry her if he had her number.

That hooligan was not going to get a doctor as his girlfriend!

In fact, they did not even think that the well-dressed young woman who came into the ward later was that hooligan’s younger sister.

A short while later, Nina came back to the ward with a care worker. Anna instantly pulled a long face and pretended that she was angry.

Nina did not care. She told the care worker what the doctor told her, then took her handbag and left.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1435-The next morning, when Luca prepared to go to work, she saw Nina’s car parked in front of her apartment.

She was sensitive with numbers, so she remembered Nina’s license plate. She walked up to the car and knocked on the window.

Nina rolled the window down. When she saw that it was Luca, she unlocked the car doors. “Good morning, Dr. Craw. I’m going to T Corporation to give my quarterly report, so I’m wondering if you want to hitch a ride.”

Luca did not reject the offer. She nodded, went to the other side of the car, and sat inside.

After Luca fastened her seatbelt, Nina started the car and drove toward T Corporation.

“Are you worried about something?” Luca asked.

Nina brushed her hair and said awkwardly, “You noticed it?”

“I can see that you were thinking about something. If I hadn’t recognized your license plate, you probably wouldn’t have realized that I left the apartment,” Luca said. She knew that Nina was waiting for her, but Nina did not realize Luca was outside. That was why Luca thought that Nina’s mind was occupied with something.

Nina sighed and said, “I’m worried about you. That useless brother of mine seems to have set his sights on you. I didn’t lie to you when I said that I have to go to T Corporation to hand in my quarterly report, but I’m also worried that he might stalk you. That’s why I waited for you here, and I can give you a ride too.”

Yesterday, she had received a call from the care worker.

After Nina left, Anna and Jean discussed how to trick Nina so that they could obtain Luca’s phone number and address. The care worker was employed by Nina, so she had the obligation to tell her employer what was going on.

“Don’t worry,” Luca said. She knew that Nina was concerned about her.

“Sigh, you probably don’t know that my brother isn’t an honest person. He has friends who can find out where you live if they want. If he hasn’t changed, I’m genuinely worried about you,” Nina said worriedly. None of that would have happened if she had not offered to send Luca home.

It would be very troublesome for Luca if Jean set his sights on her.

Jean was generally useless, but he had friends who were gangsters. Most of his money was spent on those people, and Jean had always said that he was “exploring career opportunities.”

Those people were up to no good. If Jean asked for their help to find out where Luca lived, they would definitely succeed, and Luca would suffer.

“Thanks for telling me. I’ll keep an eye on things.” Luca could tell that Nina was concerned about her safety. novelbin

Nina continued, “Also, if he managed to harass you, you must let me know. I’ll help you wherever I can.”

Luca smiled and nodded.

“You didn’t sleep well last night, right?” She asked.

Nina was taken aback, though she admitted it. “Yes, I didn’t sleep well. I can’t stop thinking that my mom needs another liver transplant.”

“Why? Who was her donor the first time?” Luca knew the answer to the question, but she had to pretend that she did not know.

“My brother was the donor. Back then, my mom didn’t agree to the donation, and she said that she wanted to find a liver on the black market. Eventually, my brother managed to persuade her to accept the donation, and that was how they could proceed with the operation so quickly,” Nina said.

Luca nodded. Nina continued, “To be frank, my brother didn’t donate the liver because he wanted to save our mother. Instead, he could have his sentence reduced if he agreed to the operation. My brother was sent to prison because of a crime he committed, and he’d rather lose half of his liver just so that he could get out early. You must find my family very ridiculous.”

When Luca heard that, she had the urge to give Nina a hug.

Luca shook her head and tried to say some words of comfort, but Nina continued, “It’s been so many years, and I’m already used to it.”

Luca could see the sorrow on her face. Was she really used to it?

If she had already gotten numb from how her family treated her, she would not look so sorrowful…

Nina parked the car at the T Corporation basement parking lot. When she was about to get out of the car, she noticed the car parked opposite hers.

“That car…” She frowned.

“What’s wrong?” Luca looked in the direction of Nina’s gaze.

“It belongs to Tia…” Nina remembered the car clearly. She had visited Bianca when Bianca had just been discharged from the hospital. Nina remembered seeing Tia come out of that car.

The car was a limited edition car that Nina had read about in a magazine. After knowing that Tia owned one of those cars, Nina had wondered why a psychologist could afford that luxury car, and she had gossiped with Sue about it.

Tia had not changed her car since then.

Luca raised her eyebrows as she looked at the car.

“Did you read the tabloids two days ago? Tia is the rumored mistress of Mr. Crawford,” Nina explained. She thought that Luca did not know who Tia was.

Luca nodded.

Nina rubbed her chin and mumbled to herself, “Why would she be at T Corporation so early? Isn’t Bea traveling overseas now? There shouldn’t be any need for her services.”

Luca hugged her handbag. She felt uneasy when she heard Nina’s words.

Even though she was mentally prepared that Luke might eventually fall in love with another woman, she could not help but be disappointed when that thought became a reality.

“Nina, I’m going upstairs to clock in,” she said.

“Mm. Let’s go together. I need to go to look for Mr. Crawford.” Nina turned her gaze away from the car and went to the elevator lobby with Luca.

Luca exited the elevator on the twelfth floor while Nina continued to ride upward to the CEO’s office.

Just as usual, she met Jason and told him that she was at T Corporation to deliver the quarterly report.

Jason led her to the CEO’s office.

When Nina heard that Jason was going to bring her to the CEO’s office, she was quite surprised. “Isn’t there another guest in Mr. Crawford’s office now?”

Jason turned around and looked at her. “How do you know, Ms. Langdon?”

“I saw Ms. Tia’s car in the parking lot. She should be in Mr. Crawford’s office now, right?” Nina asked.

“Yes, but it’s nothing important, Ms. Langdon. Mr. Crawford told me to bring you to his office once you arrive,” Jason said.

Nina was not used to Jason calling her “Ms. Langdon.” She waved her hand and said, “There’s no one else here. You can just call me Nina. ‘Ms. Langdon’ is so awkward.”

Jason smiled but said nothing.

Nina could not help but ask, “What’s going on between him and Tia?”

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1436-Jason remained smiling. “It’s nothing more than a dinner between friends.”

“And I nearly fell for it.” Nina stopped walking. “Your boss must be planning something, isn’t he?”

“How would I know what Mr. Crawford is doing?” Jason did not confirm it or deny it. He tried to shift the topic.

From Jason’s response, Nina was even more sure that Luke was planning something. Otherwise, the scandal would not have broken out so abruptly.

After all, if he were really interested in Tia, he would have made his move a long time ago.

Nina was present during several of Tia’s consultation sessions with Bianca. Luke was there too. That woman could not keep her eyes away from Luke.

If Tia said she had no feelings for Luke, Nina would not believe it.

When they were about to reach the CEO’s office, Nina asked again, “Ms. Tia must be in Mr. Crawford’s office now, right? Are you sure that it’s okay for us to barge in?”

“Mr. Crawford said that it’s okay,” Jason said with a smile.

When Nina heard that, she took a few steps forward. The door was ajar. Nina knocked on the door and said to the man inside the office, “I’m here to deliver the quarterly report, Mr. Crawford.”

Luke, sitting in the office, nodded and pointed at the seat opposite him. “Come in.”

Nina walked inside. She glanced at Tia and sat down next to her.

Two chairs were placed opposite Luke’s work desk. Tia was sitting on one, and Nina was sitting on the other.

Tia could not help but feel nervous when she saw Nina walk in.

She knew that Nina was good friends with Bianca. If Nina was nosy enough to tell Bianca that she had a private dinner with Luke, Bianca might take the next flight back to confront her.

After all, she only had the chance when Bianca was not around.

“Good morning, Ms. Langdon,” she said.

“Good morning,” Nina nodded politely, then turned to look at Luke. “Mr. Crawford, is it a good time for me to present my report now?”

“You may,” Luke said. He was the behind-the-scenes boss of Brilliant Architecture. Brilliant Architecture was not a subsidiary of T Corporation, and Nina would deliver the quarterly sales report to him every three months.

Nina took out a document from a folder, looked at the woman sitting next to her, and reminded her tactfully, “Ms. Tia, I’m about to discuss company secrets with Mr. Crawford.”

Tia blushed when she heard that.

Her mind was occupied with Luke, so she was not paying attention to details. Now that Nina had to remind her to leave, she felt quite embarrassed.

She hurriedly stood up and said, “I’m sorry, excuse me.”

Luke and Nina did not say anything, though the latter smiled at her politely. Tia could not tell if the smile was genuine.

Tia picked up her handbag and walked briskly toward the door. Then, she turned around, looked at Luke, and said, “Mr. Crawford, I hope that you can attend the conference.”

After that, she left the office, and Jason closed the door.

‘Conference?’ Nina became curious, so she asked, “Mr. Crawford, if you don’t mind my asking, what conference is it?”

“It’s a psychology conference.” Luke was willing to give her the long answer this time. “In two days, there will be a psychology conference and exhibition in A City. Renowned psychologists from all over the world will be gathered here.”

Nina nodded in understanding.

Despite moving to A City, Tia’s international reputation did not decrease. She must have been invited to the conference.

Nina could guess why Tia wanted to invite Luke to the conference…

“I don’t think T Corporation is planning to venture into this industry, right? Why did she invite you? Don’t tell me that you’ve become interested in psychology?” Nina asked a barrage of questions.

Thanks to Percy, she was not afraid of Luke anymore.

“She said that the conference will be helpful to Bianca’s condition,” Luke said. Tia had always used that excuse to get closer to him, but he did not call her out on it. novelbin

“Bianca’s condition…” Nina realized that Luke did not sound as intimate whenever he referred to Bianca. She continued, “Bea has lost her memories for so long. I think it’s a good thing if she can regain her memories. Right, how has Bea been recently? I haven’t seen her update her timeline.”

Luke tapped on the keyboard and reminded her, “Ms. Langdon, aren’t you here to present the quarterly report?”

That question reminded Nina of her objective at T Corporation. She began to present the quarterly report without wondering why Luke had suddenly changed the topic.

When she was done, she left Luke’s office.

She could not stop thinking about how Tia had invited Luke to the conference.

Was there really something going on between them while Bianca was away? Judging from Luke’s attitude toward Tia earlier, that did not seem to be the case…

Now that she knew about the conference, she was quite interested in attending it. Her mental state had been declining lately, and she might find something at the conference or the exhibition that would help her.

She gave a call to Sue to ask if Sue would accompany her to the conference.

Sue said that she had some work to do, so she could not accompany her.

Nina thought that it would be boring if she went alone. When she stepped into the elevator, she pressed the button for Luca’s floor.

When the elevator arrived on the twelfth floor, Nina stepped out and followed the signs to the assistant’s office.

Nina knocked on the door and spoke to Zoey, who was copying some documents. “Good morning. I’m looking for Dr. Luca Craw.”

“Dr. Craw is in her lab now. You are…?” Zoey thought that Nina looked familiar.

“I’m her friend. I’m also from Brilliant Architecture. I’ll need an access card to go into the lab, right?” Nina said.

“I see. Why don’t you have a seat here while I go over and inform Luca about you? May I know your name?” Zoey put the documents on the table in a stack.

“I’m Nina Langdon,” Nina said with a gentle smile.

Zoey nodded and dialed Luca’s number using the internal line.

Soon, Luca appeared in the assistant’s office wearing a lab coat. “Nina? Are you done with your quarterly report?”

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1437-“Mm, I’m done. I want to ask you something, and I hope I’m not disturbing you,” Nina said as she looked at Luca. Luca looked so different in her work clothes.

She even had a feeling that any man could be charmed by someone like Luca…

“Don’t worry about it. Should we go to my office?” Luca shook her head and said.

Nina smiled. “It’s nothing important. There’s a psychology conference and exhibition in A City this week. I’d like to go, and I’m wondering if you’re interested.”

‘Psychology conference and exhibition?’

Luca was worried about Nina’s mental health. It would be a good idea if she went there. She nodded and said, “Let’s go, but wouldn’t it be hard to gain access to the conference if you’re not a psychologist? If I recall correctly, the conference is held once every two years, and it’s not easy to get an invitation. We’d probably be visiting the exhibition instead.”

“Don’t worry. I have a way to get an invitation,” Nina said.

“Alright, I’d love to go if you can get us an invitation,” Luca said and nodded.

Nina was happy that Luca agreed to go with her. “See you then!” She said and left.

Zoey had been eavesdropping on their conversation. After Nina left, she said, “Dr. Craw, is that young woman Mr. Percy Mallory’s… friend?”

She wanted to say “illicit lover,” but she realized that Luca seemed to be very close to that woman, which was why she changed her words at the last moment.

Luca glanced at her. “You seem to be interested in gossip.”

“Heh heh. I’ve read about their relationship in the tabloids, and I happen to remember it. Mr. Mallory is an outstanding man, and he rarely appeared in the papers. That’s why I remember it very well,” Zoey explained, seeing that Luca was getting displeased.

“Mm.” Luca turned around and left without answering the question.

Zoey rubbed her chin as she watched Luca leave. She wondered if she had misspoken.

Luca was engrossed in a discussion with the other researchers. By the time she finished the discussion, it was already fifteen minutes past office hours.

She remembered that Tommy was waiting for her for dinner, so she asked Rhett to tidy up the documents before clocking out and leaving hurriedly.

While she waited in the elevator lobby, she sensed that the doors of the CEO’s personal elevator behind her slowly opened.

Luca turned around and saw Luke standing there.

“Mr. Crawford?” Luca was surprised. The CEO’s personal elevator was running on a different system from the other elevators, so the elevator should not have stopped there even if Luca pressed the button to go down.

The only explanation was that Luke had deliberately wanted to stop at that floor.

“Are you going home?” Luke asked.

“Mm.” Luca maintained some distance between them.

“You’re a little late today,” Luke said. When he was about to go off work, he looked at the security feed and realized that Luca was still in her office.

“I’m sorry, I was in a discussion with the other researchers earlier…” Luca thought he was unhappy that Tommy had to wait at her apartment.

“I’ll send you home,” Luke said without any hint of accusation in his voice.

“It’s fine. I can catch a cab,” Luca said insistently. She did not want to have too many interactions with him.

He suspected that she was an agent of the Island of Despair, and he had a budding relationship with another woman. It was inappropriate for her to be so close to him now.

Seeing that the elevator doors were about to close, Luke held the door open and stared straight into her eyes. “Prepare some extra food.”

Luca understood what he meant. He wanted to have dinner in her house again…

“Alright,” Luca said.

Seeing that Luca had no intention of going into the elevator, he said, “I’m picking up Tommy, so it’s along the way.”

“You should pick up Tommy first while I go to the supermarket. It’ll be faster if we go separate ways,” Luca said. The elevator doors behind her opened, and she walked inside without turning back.

When Luke saw that, he pulled his hand away, and the elevator doors closed.

Luca seemed to be very busy today. She was not in her office during lunch break…

Luke watched the numbers on the digital display tick down until it reached the basement parking lot, where From the conversation earlier, he could sense that Luca was trying even harder to avoid him.

If she were from the Island of Despair, she would have known what happened to the impostor Bianca, and it was understandable that she wanted to avoid him.

At the same time, if she were from the Island of Despair, her reason for applying for a job at Watson must be to get closer to him. It would not make sense that she was avoiding him now.

Luke found his car and drove away.

After knowing that Luca was working overtime, he told Sean to pick up Lanie and Rainie, while he would pick up Tommy himself.

His original plan was to bring Luca along and see if he could find out something from her, but she had avoided him as usual…

Luke arrived at Tommy’s school. Most of the children had already gone home.

He stepped out of the car and saw Tommy sitting on a stool, so he waved at him.

Tommy hopped off the stool when he saw Luke, and he said to the teacher, “Ms. Harland, my Daddy’s here.”

“Mm. See you tomorrow, Tommy.” The teacher glanced at Luke, and her heart started to beat faster.

“Bye, Ms. Harland!” Tommy rushed up to Luke and held his hand. As they walked toward his father’s car, he said, “Daddy, if you’re busy, you should have gotten Uncle Sean to pick me up.”

“Uncle Sean is busy today,” Luke said. “Also, he’s picking up Lanie and Rainie, so it’s inconvenient for him.”

“You mean, it’s inconvenient for you to pick them up, then come back and send me to Ms. Luca’s house, right?” Tommy said. “You should ask Ms. Luca to prepare dinner for Lanie and Rainie. I believe they love Ms. Luca’s cooking. It’s too delicious, and Rainie said that the food reminds her of what Mommy used to cook.”

Luke paused. The child’s words reminded him of something.

If Luca was from the Island of Despair, could she have learned how to cook from Bianca?

After all, her cooking tasted so similar to Bianca’s cooking…

Luke looked at Tommy.

Tommy turned his head to look at his father and said helplessly, “Open the door, Daddy.”

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1439-“What do you want?” Luca stared at him.

Abel shook the vase in his hand, raised his eyebrows, and said casually, “Are you planning to greet Luke while conscious?”

Fainting was the best explanation for the mess in front of her. Luca knew that only if she fainted could she hide everything. She agreed to Abel’s plan because she had no other choice.

“Let’s do it by the door,” she said as she returned the fruit knife to its original position, then walked to the door.

Abel smiled and walked over with the vase.

He smiled innocently even though he had just murdered someone. Luca suddenly became angry. She stretched out her hand and said, “I’ll do it myself.”

“Luke is very smart. If you do it, it might make him notice some clues. I’ll do it,” Abel said.

Luca stood there firmly and watched as Abel raised the vase, preparing to smash it on her.

“By the way, your research is interesting. Tell me next time about the kind of drugs you’re researching.” After he said that, the vase in his hand fell on Luca’s head.

Before Luca had time to tremble at his words, he smashed the vase on her head, which made a loud sound. She lost consciousness after that.

Abel looked at Luca who fell on the floor and smiled wantonly.

Luca, Bianca…

He threw the vase and left swaggeringly without cleaning the scene of the crime.

When Luke arrived at Luca’s apartment with Tommy, he smelled blood the moment he stepped out of the elevator.

“Dad, why is there a strange smell?” Tommy also smelled it but because of his young age, he could not tell what it was.

Luke noticed that Luca’s apartment door was open.

He stopped and glanced at the doors of the other two houses. They were all closed tightly. The smell of blood was likely coming from Luca’s apartment.

If the window inside the house was not open, the smell of blood could only waft from the door.

Luca…

Luke’s heartbeat quickened. He stopped in his tracks and told Tommy, “Stand here, don’t move.”

“Okay,” Tommy noticed his serious expression and stood still obediently.

Luke quickly walked to the front of the apartment and saw Luca knocked out in the hallway. She had lost consciousness.

A strong smell of blood drifted over. He lowered his head to look at Luca and it seemed that her forehead was hurt. Thankfully, the bleeding was not much. The smell of blood was not from her.

Luke squatted down and put his hand underneath Luca’s nose. Fortunately, her breathing was normal.

‘It’s likely that she was attacked and then fainted.’

Luke could not ignore the strong smell of blood. He went past Luca and walked into the room. He followed the direction where the smell of blood was wafting out, which was the door of the guest bedroom.

The open bedroom door allowed him to see the scene inside clearly.

Luke took out his phone, called the ambulance, then called the police.

There was a police station near Luca’s apartment. The police arrived sooner than the ambulance. After seeing the situation inside the house, a young policeman could not help but vomit on the spot.

Not long after, the ambulance also arrived. The accompanying ambulance staff confirmed that the person wearing the security uniform in the guest bedroom was dead and carried Luca into the ambulance.

Luke handed his business card to the police and said, “If you have any questions, give this number a call and you’ll be able to reach me.”

The police knew who the man in front of him was and did not dare to intercept him. He said, “Okay, Mr. Crawford. We’ll handle it, but we may need you to go to the police station to make a statement. I’m sorry to trouble you.”

“Okay, just let me know when.” Luke finished speaking and walked out.

Tommy stood by the elevator obediently, looking at Luca who was being carried out on a stretcher.

“Ms. Luca, Ms. Luca, what happened to you?” His voice was choked.

Luca did not react at all.

“Doctor, what’s wrong with my Ms. Luca?” Tommy raised his head and looked at the medical staff beside him with tears in his big, round eyes.

“Hey buddy, the patient is in a coma now. We’re going to take her to the hospital for an examination.” The medical staff looked at the child who looked as though he was about to break into tears and felt

pity toward him.

Luke walked over and stooped to pick up the child.

The medical staff recognized the person in front of them and asked, “Mr. Crawford, are you going to the hospital with us?”

“I’ll follow behind you,” Luke said.

“Okay.”

When the elevator arrived, the medical staff moved the stretcher into the elevator. Luke carried Tommy and they went downstairs together.

At that moment, Tommy could see Luca more clearly. His tears fell like a waterfall when he saw the wound on her forehead. “Dad, Ms. Luca must be in pain!”

Luke did not say a word and hugged him tighter.

After the elevator reached the first floor, the medical staff took Luca into the ambulance while Luke drove behind the ambulance and followed them to the hospital.

He notified Johann in advance.

After Luca arrived at the hospital, Johann did a basic inspection and then arranged a series of check- ups.

Luke watched as the nurse pushed Luca to go for a check-up and asked calmly, “When will she wake up?”

“It’ll take a while. The wound isn’t too deep but we’re afraid that there is congestion or concussion, so we have to first check to see if there’s internal bleeding. If there isn’t, she should be able to wake up tonight,” Johann said.

Luke nodded.

Dear Readers Books Are Daily Updated Click On Link Below To Join Our Official Telegram Group To Get Latest Books Updates..

Tommy, who was on the side, could not understand them. He asked tremblingly, “Uncle Park, is Ms. Luca seriously injured? Will she be okay?”

Seeing the child acting anxiously as if he was the one injured, Johann touched his head and said, “She’ll be fine, don’t worry.”

“Dad, is Uncle Park telling the truth?” Tommy asked the person he trusted the most.

Luke looked down at Tommy and said in a low voice, “The doctor said she’ll be fine. Are you hungry? Would you like to eat something?”

“I want to wait for Ms. Luca to wake up. We’ll eat together.” Tommy had no appetite.

Luke looked at his son, who reacted similarly when Bianca was kidnapped.

‘Between Bianca and Luca, who is more important to him?’

“She can’t eat for the time being. Tommy, you don’t need to wait for her. Go eat something first. I have some oats in my office. It’s your favorite peanut butter oats. Would you like to have some?” Johann touched his head.

Tommy shook his head, his expression full of worry for Luca.

“She’ll feel bad if you go hungry.” Luke looked at his son and used Luca as an excuse.

When Tommy heard that, he hesitated for a few seconds before saying, “I don’t want Ms. Luca to worry about me. I’ll have some oats.”

Johann took Tommy over from Luke, looked at Luke, and said, “Come to my office for some oats. The nurse will take her to the ward on my floor after the check-up.”

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1440-Luke knew that waiting here would not make the results come out any sooner. He carried Tommy and went upstairs with Johann. They waited for the results in his office.

“I happened to be on duty today and asked the nurse to buy some peanut butter oats. Both of you should have some. One is young and the other has gastric, it’s not good for both of you to starve,” Johann said while taking out the reheated peanut butter oats from the microwave.

“Thank you, Uncle Park,” Tommy took the bowl of oats and thanked him.

Johann put another bowl in front of Luke. He could not help but ask, “What’s going on? Didn’t you mention that Dr. Craw was trained in self-defense?”

“I’m not sure,” Luke took a mouthful of oats and shook his head. “We’ll find out more after she wakes up.”

Johann noticed that Tommy stopped after taking two mouthfuls of oats. He was concerned and asked, “Tommy, why did you stop eating?”

“I’m worried about Ms. Luca.” Tommy’s tiny face was filled with melancholy.

Luke put down the bowl and touched his head. “She’ll be fine.”

Tommy pursed his lips and said, “The oats don’t taste good.”

When Johann heard what he said, he asked patiently, “What do you want to eat? I’ll have someone go buy it?”

Tommy shook his head and replied, “I want to eat Ms. Luca’s cooking… Dad, Uncle Park, what should we do if Ms. Luca can’t wake up?”

Johann muttered in his heart. He originally thought that Tommy had an unusual attachment toward Luca, but now it seemed that it was all because of Luca’s wonderful cooking.

“Tommy, she’s okay. Trust me. Be a good boy and finish this bowl of oats.” He comforted the boy.

Tommy looked at him with a serious expression. “Uncle Park, will you do your best to save Ms. Luca if I finish the oats?”

Johann was speechless. It was his job to save lives. Whether Tommy finished the oats or not, he was going to save her.

On top of that, Luca’s wound did not look serious. It would not be life-threatening.

Even if there were risks that he had just mentioned to Luke, he would still save her. It was not Tommy’s place to negotiate with him.

However, considering that Tommy was doing it because he was worried about Luca’s situation, Johann nodded and agreed. “As long as you finish the oats, I guarantee that Dr. Craw will be fine.”

When Tommy heard his reply, he picked up the bowl and gobbled up the oats.

Johann exchanged glances with Luke, and they both ate their bowl of oats.

After seeing the three of them having oats in Johann’s office, the nurse was worried that they would not have enough to eat. She took the initiative to send over some snacks from the lounge. novelbin

As soon as they finished eating, Luca was done with all the check-ups and sent to the ward because of Johann’s involvement.

She was still in a coma when they sent her to the ward.

Johann instructed the nurse to clean Luca’s wound while he went through the reports. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, “No blood spots were found in her head. Her situation is not too serious. She’ll recover soon enough if the wound is treated properly and doesn’t come into contact with water for two days.”

“Why hasn’t she woken up?” Luke asked.

“It may be because of a concussion. My suggestion is for her to stay in the hospital for observation for one night and have another CT scan the next day. If all goes well, she can be discharged by tomorrow,” Johann said while thoroughly checking the report once again.

There would not be any major problems if there were no blood spots found.

“Uncle Park, does this mean that Ms. Luca is not in a life-threatening situation?” Tommy asked. He did not understand the CT scan reports.

“She’ll be fine. Maybe she’ll wake up in the middle of the night.” Johann gave a rough estimation.

Patients who fainted from accidents wake up at different times. Some could wake up in a short time, but some may have to sleep for one night before they woke up.

Tommy said immediately, “I’ll wait for Ms. Luca to wake up before I leave.”

“No.” Luke refused immediately.

Tommy looked at Luke with his eyes widened. “Why not? Dad, Ms. Luca is in the hospital alone. She’s sad and helpless. How can you be so cruel?!”

Luke listened to the child’s cries and replied in a cold tone, “You have class tomorrow. I have notified Zander and he’ll bring you home later.”

“No, I’m going to wait here until Ms. Luca wakes up.” Tommy insisted.

Johann sat there and watched the two of them staring at each other. He thought about it for a while and thought that it was pointless for them to keep arguing like this, so he said, “How about this? If you’re worried that no one will know when Dr. Craw wakes up, your daddy will stay with her and you’ll go home with Zander obediently, okay?”

Tommy held his breath, his displeasure toward the situation was displayed on his face.

Luke glanced at Johann but said nothing.

At that moment, Zander happened to walk in and respectfully said, “Young Master Luke, I’m here to pick up Little Young Master Tommy.”

“Daddy, I don’t want to go back.” Tommy went with a gentler approach when he realized that his previous approach was not working.

“I’ll be here with her, you have nothing to worry about. She’ll be discharged tomorrow.” Luke’s heart softened when he saw how insistent Tommy was to stay with Luca.

“Okay. Can I see Ms. Luca before I leave, then?” Tommy had no choice but to compromise when he saw that Luke would not budge.

Dear Readers Books Are Daily Updated Click On Link Below To Join Our Official Telegram Group To Get Latest Books Updates..

He was just a kid…

“Yes, you can. Zander, take him to visit her then send him back to Crawford Manor,” Luke replied.

Zander nodded quickly and then asked, “Young Master Luke, what about you?”

“I’ll stay here tonight, don’t worry about me. Tomorrow, you’ll be responsible for sending the kids to school,” Luke said.

Johann curled his lips when he heard it.

Zander nodded and took Tommy out of Johann’s office.

Johann put away all the reports and said, “It seems that Tommy likes Dr. Craw very much. Outsiders might think they’re mother and child.”

Luke did not respond and sat on the sofa.

Johann continued gossiping, “I think Dr. Craw is a good person. Maybe you don’t have to be so stubborn. It’s easy for the kids to accept someone they like. Sometimes, don’t just think about yourself. You should also think about the kids.”

“Have you been to my house recently?” Luke asked suddenly.

Johann was slightly confused and replied, “No, why are you asking?”

“You sound more and more like Old Master Crawford,” Luke said.

Johann was overjoyed. “It turns out that Old Master Crawford has also said the same thing to you. Since Old Master Crawford shares the same thoughts, just find someone who looks good, has the conditions to match, and if the children can accept her, just go with it.”

“Stop being nosy.” Luke snapped at him and avoided the topic. He had not thought about marrying Luca. “When will she wake up?”

“Should be sometime around midnight but I can’t make any promises. After all, I’m not God,” Johann replied.
