Ch. 1881..1890

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1881-"So, you don't have an appointment. Security, please get this guy out of here. If he still shows up here after this, just continue to chase him out.” Tina was much harsher than Luca.

"Understood." A security guard at the side had seen how Enoch was pestering Luca and was also prepared to make a move. However, since Luca had not given any orders, he did not dare to take any action as it was possible they could be a couple who was arguing.

After all, he did not dare to offend Luca.

Enoch took a step back when he saw the security guard walking toward him. He looked at Luca and said, "Luca, don't you dare take things too far. If it wasn't for Mr. Norman, I wouldn't even have my eyes on you!”

Luca's face was scarlet as she was mad at what Enoch said. If it were not for the crowd watching them, perhaps she would have stepped forward and taught this shameless man a lesson.

"You're just frustrated because you can't get her. Dr. Craw won't ever like you. Even if you get tons of big shots to support you, she still won't even spare you a glance. Get lost!” Tina seldom spoke such harsh and feisty words to others. Even though Enoch's attitude did not affect her, she could not help but give him a lecture.

To be lectured by a woman in front of a crowd made Enoch utterly ashamed. He stomped his way out of the building.

The employees surrounding them were still standing on the same spot. With a cold expression, Tina said, “Why are you guys still standing here? Do you guys think that you have too much time during lunch break?”

After being reminded by Tina, the employees hurriedly walked away and dispersed from the scene.

Luca was so mad that her face had become pale. The previous time Enoch blocked her way, no one had been there to witness it. Besides, Tina was trustworthy. Hence, that incident did not reach the ears of others.

However, the current incident was different. With so many people having observed what went down, it was almost guaranteed that the entire company would soon learn about it.

She felt a slight headache coming on. If Luke found out about it, what would he think?

Tina noticed that Luca was not looking too good and placed her hand over Luca's shoulder. She squeezed her shoulder and comforted Luca, saying, "It's alright. Why don't you head upstairs to get some rest? What do you want for lunch? I'll go get it for you." "I'll just have the same as you." After being pestered by Enoch, Luca no longer had the appetite to have lunch.

"Alright." Tina nodded and headed toward the door of the company building.

Luca took the elevator and headed upstairs.

The entire T Corporation resumed its usual routine.

None of them noticed that Luke's personal elevator was slowly traveling up from the first floor, going all the way to the top.

In the elevator, Luke's expression was very dark. He had just rushed back from the airport. He was on the first floor because the driver had dropped him off there.

As soon as he entered the elevator, he had heard a commotion. A man had yelled out Luca's name twice in a row.

"Have you been hiding certain things that have happened in the company from me?" Luke was looking at Jason with a cold glare.

Jason fumbled, shook his head, and said, "Sir, I've already reported everything that has happened in the company."

"Then what about previously?" Luke continued questioning. He had seen the scene from earlier, and it seemed like it was not the first time that guy had pestered Luca.

Perhaps they both knew each other from a long time ago.

However, how did Luca come to know that guy?

"Are you referring to Dr. Craw and the guy with the last name Campbell?" Jason asked.

"Obviously," Luke said coldly.

Jason shuddered as he knew things could not be kept a secret anymore after Luke had seen the scene. He had no choice but to say, "Previously, Dr. Craw was arranged to attend a blind date, but I'm not too sure what really happened. I think it's best if you ask Tina about this."

"Blind date? Who's the one who arranged it?" Luke continued questioning.

"I'm not sure..." Jason clenched his fists, his palms starting to sweat. It was unavoidable as his boss was way too domineering. Whenever something had to do with Luca, Luke would become even more domineering. "This is Dr. Craw's personal issue, so I don't know anything about it."

"That man mentioned Mr. Norman just now, didn't he?" Even though Luke had been in the elevator, he was pressing the hold button. Hence, he was able to clearly listen to all the voices outside.

"I guess so." Jason was feeling guilty being questioned like this. He was not in the wrong, yet it seemed like he had done something wrong. He just stood there, where he continued to be interrogated by Luke. Was Mr. Norman not his boss' father-in-law?

Could it be that it was really Mr. Norman who arranged for Dr. Craw to go on a blind date? If that was really the case, Luke would not go confront his father-in-law about this, right?

That would truly offend the Norman family. Jason was worried that Luke might actually do it, and it would lead to his future being ruined.

Even though Luke would usually settle things calmly and in a composed manner, it was different when things were related to Luca.

When the elevator arrived on the floor, Luke stepped out and walked to the door of his office. He then said, "When Tina's back, ask her to come to my office."

"Yes, sir." Jason dared not take it lightly. After Luke entered the office, he helped Luke adjust the heater's temperature before closing the door. Then, he sent Tina a message.

[After you have your lunch, please make a trip to Mr. Crawford's office.] He sent the message.

After a moment, Tina replied. [The boss is back?]

[Yes, and he even overheard the incident that took place in the main lobby.] Jason warned Tina. [Oh, right. It seems like he's not in a good mood. I advise you not to hide anything on behalf of Dr. Craw. Just come clean about everything.]

[Oh my God! What's with the coincidence? And how does he know that I...] After Tina sent the message, she felt terrified and sent a whole row of crying emojis to Jason.

[Mr. Crawford asked me about it, but you know more than I do.] Jason replied honestly.

[Mr. Doyle, how could you betray me?! If Mr. Crawford learns that I've hidden so many things from him, that's the end of it for me. Is today my death sentence?] Tina cried and changed her mind. She quickly

asked the waiter to pack up the two sets of meals that she ordered so she could have them as takeaway.

[What could I have done about it? Mr. Crawford had already heard the exchange that took place in the lobby. If you say that you don't know anything, he won't buy it. Don't worry. At most, he'll just put on a dark expression. He won't do anything to you.] Jason comforted her. After all, Tina was a good assistant to Luke.

Besides, this matter was about Luca, so Luke would not simply go around firing others.

If Luca knew Luke had done such a thing, his image as the boss would be ruined. Besides, the boss would not want to see Luca feeling guilty.

[I'll head back once I get my lunch.] Tina covered her face and was feeling troubled by the thought of Luke telling her to come clean to him with a dark look on his face. To avoid getting punished, she had no choice but to let Luca down.

Initially, she had promised to keep it a secret, but since Luke had started to have questions, she needed to protect herself first.

Zoey came over and became a busybody, asking, "Tina, what's going on with Dr. Craw's issue?"

"What are you talking about? Why are you asking me about it?" Tina did not have a pleasant expression on her face, and her tone was harsh.

Zoey was puzzled after being blasted. "Earlier, we all saw you protecting Dr. Craw. Who's that guy?"

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1882-Tina felt frustrated listening to Zoey's nagging and reminded her, saying, "Ms. Davis, Dr. Craw is your superior."

Zoey was dumbfounded. It was because Tina was always easy to talk to that Zoey decided to get insider news from her.

"Uhh, Tina..." Zoey wanted to explain.

"As an employee, if you go around looking to get gossip about your superior, you'll only cause others to be dissatisfied with you. It's not like you're a newbie who had just entered the workforce either, so you should already know this,” Tina said. In the past, Zoey was never the type to do things without thinking twice. It was probably because she mingled too much with Jenni and turned out like this.

"I'm sorry for being a busybody, Tina." After being lectured, Zoey's back had started breaking out in a cold sweat.

The waiter came over while carrying meal sets that had been wrapped up for takeaway. Tina took hers, looked at Zoey, and reminded her again. "Don't ever be used by others without you realizing it."

"Got it." Zoey noticed Tina was serious and dared not say too much at that moment.

It was Jenni who had encouraged her to approach Tina and get insider news. She was a busybody and got lost in her thoughts, which was how she ended up approaching Tina.

After listening to Tina's strict lecture, Zoey noticed she had done something she should not have.

After Tina left, Zoey returned to her table while feeling down.

Before she even sat down, Jenni came over to gossip with her. “How did it go? What did Tina say?"

Zoey looked at Jenni with some resentment. If she had not listened to Jenni, she would not have gotten lectured by Tina. The thought of it made her mood sink lower.

Jenni got anxious and pestered her, saying, "Come on, say something. What did Tina tell you?”

"She didn't say anything." Feeling sad, Zoey picked up her milk tea and took a sip of it.

Jenni looked at her, feeling suspicious. "She didn't say anything? How is that possible? I saw you two speaking for a long while."

Zoey still did not say a word.

Jenni got mad and said, "We're besties. I've been taking good care of you during work. Now that you've found out something but you're not telling me, don't you think it's inappropriate of you?”

"Ms. Lynn, Dr. Craw is my superior!" After being pestered by Jenni, Zoey lost her temper and pushed her milk tea on the table. She exerted a little too much force, so the cup produced a small sound when it came into contact with the table.

Jenni was stunned and bit her lip. She stared at Zoey for some time before asking, "What are you trying to say?"

"You knew that Dr. Craw is my superior, yet you still asked me to ask about her gossip. You said we're besties, but you're treating me as a tool. Did you ever think about my future when you told me to go ask about my superior's personal matters?” Zoey glanced at Jenni coldly. This time, she had really seen through Jenni's true colors.

"All I did was just ask you to get some insider information. Why are you so worked up? If you don't wish to tell me, then forget it." Jenni had no reason to argue back after being blasted by Zoey. She picked up

her cup of coffee and took a sip. "There's no point in saying anything more. From now on, don't blame me for not taking good care of you at work."

"Your department is so far away from mine. You can't even look after me." Zoey got up, spun around, and left.

Jenni glanced at Zoey's back as the latter walked away. She muttered in dissatisfaction, “How did this brat suddenly become so smart? Darn it. I just asked her to get some gossip. Why is she being so serious? It seems it's not easy to manipulate those around Luca."

She took out her phone and scrolled through her photo album.

Earlier, she had witnessed the entire exchange in the lobby and sneakily recorded it with her phone.

Since she was not standing too far away, she was able to take a clearer video. She looked at the man's face and touched her chin, saying, "Do you think if you don't tell me about it, I won't be able to investigate it?”

Jenni sent her relative, who was a detective, a photo of that man. She was feeling thrilled. She wanted to seek her relative's help to find out that man's identity.

She was jealous of Luca because she received special treatment from Luke. Hence, she would investigate anything that might have the chance of making Luca leave a bad impression on Luke.

On the other hand, Tina rushed back to the office and delivered Luca her lunch.

"Here's your lunch, Dr. Craw. Remember to eat it on time, alright?" Tina placed the lunch on Luca's table and did not mention a word about Luke summoning her.

Luca received it and said while taking out her phone, "How much does it cost? I'll transfer the money to you."

"No need. We can claim it from the company. I'll just inform the accountant. Besides, it doesn't cost that much. I'll be heading back first." After speaking, Tina waved to Luca and left.

Luca glanced at Tina's back and was feeling down. 'I thought she went to the canteen to have her lunch. Why did she change her mind and got takeaway as well?'

Looking at the food, Luca closed the office door and planned to rest for a moment after having her lunch. She would continue working after that.

Tina rushed back to the office while everyone in the office was having lunch in the cafeteria downstairs.

She had a sad look on her face as she thought about having to face Luke's dark expression. It made her have the urge to bring Luca along with her.

'But if I bring Luca along, perhaps it might make Mr. Crawford even angrier.'

Tina thought about it and decided to discard that thought. She headed to Luke's office.

Knock, knock. She knocked on the door cautiously, afraid that any huge actions might trigger Luke.

"Come in."

Luke's voice was heard coming from inside. Tina heard it and felt that Luke was holding back his anger. While feeling terrified, Tina pushed the door open.

Luke was the type of person who would unleash his anger on his subordinates if he was mad. He would not get the innocent involved.

Regarding this issue, Tina thought that if she had really done something wrong, it was that she did not report it to Luke and kept the matter from him. Hence, she was prepared to be lectured by Luke.

She cautiously pushed the door open and saw the man inside. His back was facing the door, and he was standing while looking out the window.

Tina could not see his expression but could feel his domineering aura.

She was trembling as she said softly, "Mr. Crawford."

"Come in and close the door." Luke extinguished the cigarette butt in his hand. He spun around and looked at Tina, expressionless.

Tina shuddered and walked into the office. She closed the door and said, "It's my fault, Mr. Crawford."

She admitted her fault before anything else. As long as she had a good attitude, perhaps she would not need to endure any lectures.

Luke looked at her with a cold gaze with no emotions. It was as if he was unbothered about Luca's issue.

Only Luke knew just how angry he was because of Luca's issue.

"Spit it out." He sat on the executive chair and just said those two words. He was not looking at Tina anymore.

"I think that guy's name is Enoch Campbell. He's the guy Dr. Craw went on a blind date with, but she doesn't have the slightest feelings for him. Besides, she did the right choice of rejecting that guy. But it seems Enoch hasn't given up on her. Even after being rejected, he returned to look for Dr. Craw again.” Tina immediately came clean about everything. After all, it was more important to keep her career safe.

"Enoch Campbell?" Luke muttered the name softly in a calm and cold tone, but it sounded as though he wanted to tear Enoch into pieces.

"Yes, sir. His name is Enoch. I think he's a civil servant in the provincial capital. His qualifications are slightly better compared to an ordinary guy, but he's too confident in himself. Dr. Craw doesn't seem to have a good impression of him,” said Tina.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1884-Luca suddenly felt uneasy.

She had wanted to keep the blind date a secret. However, the possibility of Luke knowing about it made her uneasy.

Luca picked up her phone and sent Tina a message: [Tina, do you know when Mr. Crawford returned?]

[I'm not too sure about that. After I was done buying lunch, Mr. Crawford was already there sitting in the office. As for when he returned, I think it's best if you ask Mr. Doyle.] Tina did not mention a word about Luke summoning her to question the incident.

Even though she thought that Luca was a good person, it was still because of Luke's order that she got close to Luca. Hence, she was not willing to reveal too much, lest Luca noticed something off and Tina lost a friend.

[Alright, got it.] Luca placed her phone down. She did not ask Jason.

She could only ask Tina about Luke's issue as Jason was Luke's trustworthy assistant. There might be a chance that Jason would inform Luke about her inquiries.

She felt puzzled.

After all, even though Enoch had only pestered her in the lobby for about ten minutes, she did not know whether Luke had stumbled into the scene.

At that moment, her attention was focused on Enoch. She was only thinking about escaping from him and did not pay any attention to her surroundings.

Seeing that 15 minutes was almost up, Luca got up and started packing the stuff needed for the meeting. She then headed to the meeting room.

She thought of heading over earlier so that she would not bump into Luke in the corridor.

After arriving at the meeting room, there were not many management executives around.

Luca nodded at them as a greeting. Then, she sat down on her seat. She opened her laptop and continued translating.

She wanted to finish a little more of her work so that she did not need to work overtime later.

She had no idea when would she be transferred to another place by Abel. In other words, she was clueless about when would Luke find out about her actions.

When the time came for her to be transferred, or if she was busted by Luke, she would have to separate from her kids.

Luca wanted to spend more time keeping the kids company.

When it was almost time, Luke came to the door and immediately spotted Luca, who was sitting in her seat.

She was so focussed on her laptop, and her slim fingers were constantly typing on the keyboard.

Jason had mentioned that even though Alya had returned from her leave, the workload was still very heavy as they had to revise the bidding document. Hence, despite both of them working on it, things were still quite hectic.

Luke looked at her for two seconds and walked in.

The atmosphere in the meeting room became serious all of a sudden.

Even though Luca was busy, she noticed the change of atmosphere in the meeting room. The instant there was dead silence, she lifted her head and looked at the door.

Luke had already made his way to the president's seat.

Jason pulled the chair out, and Luke sat down coldly without any expression on his face.

Luca sneakily glanced at Luke's side profile and thought he was colder than usual.

Had something unpleasant happened?

Luca felt guilty. Even though she had changed her appearance, she was still the mother of their three kids. From the perspective of the law, she was still Bianca despite having undergone plastic surgery.

As for Bianca's husband, it was still Luke.

She shook her head. Even though she had gone on a blind date, Luke did not know her real identity. There was no reason for him to be angry.

Even though he had said many weird things to her, such as how he insisted on moving in and staying with her, he never once crossed the line.

Hence, Luca thought perhaps Luke was just joking around with her.

She did not think that Luke's current mood had anything to do with her.

'If that's the case, is he not in a good mood because he didn't settle Allison's issue well or because the progress with the bidding document is not up to his expectations?'

Although Luca had sneakily shot a glance at him, Luke still noticed it.

He raised his hand and said coldly to the crowd before they could even greet him, "Start the meeting."

After he spoke, the crowd felt the atmosphere become even chillier.

They dared not say anything, and everyone was sitting straight, ready to be criticized.

Jason got the presentation ready and started the flow of the meeting.

Luca sat beside Luke and sighed to herself. Indeed, he was in a foul mood, and it was reflected in his tone when speaking.

There were not many people who could affect his emotions this strongly.

Previously, Luca used to be one of these people.

Jason cleared his throat and started the meeting.

Luca dared not continue sighing and quickly worked on recording the minutes.

That meeting lasted for more than three hours as each department head was lectured. Luca looked at Luke's serious face and felt fortunate that she was not one of them.

After the meeting was over, Luke got up and looked at Luca. "Meet me at the basement car park after half an hour."

"Is anything the matter, Mr. Crawford?" Luca became anxious when Luke said that in front of the crowd.

"We're going to Watson Biopharmaceuticals for a meeting." Luke retrieved his gaze and immediately left the meeting room.

Right after he left the room, everyone took a breath of relief. Their boss was way too scary today.

An executive who was much closer to Jason could not help but ask, "Mr. Doyle, what's up with the boss today? He's in such a bad mood. Who offended him?"

Everyone said, "Yeah, even when he was dissatisfied with our progress in the past, he has never acted like this."

Jason looked at the crowd. He wanted to look over at Luca, but that would be too deliberate. He smiled and shook his head before continuing to keep his documents. "Don't overthink things. Mr. Crawford is just dissatisfied with your work progress. Continue working overtime and amend what needs to be amended."

Everyone was down when they heard it.

Luca tidied the documents on the table and got up.

Jason called out to her, "Dr. Craw, later when you head over to Watson Biopharmaceuticals for the meeting later, I predict it'll last until after working hours. If the translation work is overwhelming and you can't finish it in time, just hand it over to Alya."

Luca hesitated. If it were not for her having to attend two meetings back-to-back, she would be able to settle the translation work that she was assigned.

"I don't think that's a good idea. Alya is quite busy as well."

"It's her work to begin with. Besides, you still have to arrange the meeting minutes. Also, the meeting at Watson Biopharmaceuticals is quite important. You're probably going to be flooded with work," said Jason. Luke had informed Jason to tell Luca these things.

The man who was still angry over Luca's matters refused to say these words to her himself.

Luca heard this and immediately said, "Is it the meeting about Dr. Albus applying for a patent for his research."

Jason smiled. "I'm not too sure about that. I'm not in charge of the issues there. But I'm guessing it might be possible. Besides, if it isn't because you were transferred here to help out, you would've also applied for a patent by now, right?"

Luca nodded.

Her research was based on Shanks' research, so everything could go smoothly. Even though she was cautious and had adjusted the dosage to maximize the drug's effects, it would not affect the foundation of the research.

If she had focused on researching this entire time, she might have succeeded already.

"Then I'll go inform Alya." Luca eventually agreed.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1885-After keeping all the documents, Luca took the laptop and walked toward the elevator.

There were a few high-ranking executives behind her, and she heard them whispering. They were all trying to guess the reason behind Luke's foul mood.

“Perhaps his wife is flirting with another guy overseas and that's the reason Mr. Crawford has such a terrible mood," said one of the executives.

"I don't think so. Didn't they say that their relationship worsened after she lost her memory? Regardless of how much trouble she causes, it shouldn't affect Mr. Crawford's mood."

"That's hard to say. According to past experience. not many can make Mr. Crawford this unhappy. Even if our proposal is terrible, he'll just put on a dark expression and point it out. This time, he unleashed his domineering aura."

Luca could not help but lower her eyes when she heard their conversation.

They were not wrong. No matter how dissatisfied Luke was with their work in the past, he would not behave like today...

When the elevator arrived, Luca did not enter but stepped to the side and made space for the others.

"Aren't you going to enter, Dr. Craw?" The last executive who stepped into the elevator looked at her.

Luca shook her head and said, "I need to head upstairs, so you guys can go ahead first."

The person heard her and pressed the button to close the doors.

Luca waited for the next elevator. At that moment, Jason came over and stood beside her, also waiting for the next elevator.

The elevator had yet to arrive. Jason looked at Luca, who was being very quiet as if Luke's abnormal behavior did not affect her.

He could not help but feel curious and ask, "Dr. Craw, don't you think something is off about Mr. Crawford?"

"Off?" Luca spun around and looked at him. "Isn't he always this serious when he's working?"

Jason heard her reply and was speechless. 'She's really good at putting on an act.'

"Mr. Crawford was acting unlike his usual self today. He's unusually domineering." Jason touched his nose. He had to be extraordinarily cautious when he was by Luke's side today as he was afraid he might make the boss unhappy.

"Is that so?" Luca smiled.

Jason was stunned at Luca's smile. He knew her true identity, so he did not believe that Luca had failed to pick up on Luke's abnormality today.

'But is she really not curious about it?'

Jason was deep in thought. Luca would probably need to face Luke's criticisms later. He warned her beforehand, saying, “Oh, right. I've mentioned that Mr. Crawford is in a foul mood. If he has a bad temper later on, please forgive him."

"The boss is upset because he's dissatisfied with his employees' work progress. It's understandable." Luca heard Jason's hint and was puzzled.

What was his reason for saying that?

Could it be that Luca was the reason why his mood was affected?

That was impossible...

She was not Bianca but Luca.

Luca denied that possibility. When the elevator arrived, she stepped into the elevator.

Jason heard her reply and sighed. If something happened later on, he hoped the rest of them would not be involved. After all, just the project itself had already given them a lot of pressure.

Luke, who was disgruntled now, would be more demanding regarding the project's details and the employees' work attitude.

After the elevator arrived on the floor, Luca stepped out first. After placing her laptop and the documents back in her office, she took the translation documents that she had yet to finish and walked to the secretary's office.

She handed the translation documents to Alya and explained the situation to her.

Alya did not say a word and just received the documents with a smile. "Alright, Dr. Craw. I'll take care of these."

Luca nodded her head. Seeing that Alya had no objections, she thought that perhaps Jason had informed her about it beforehand. She said, "Sorry to trouble you."

Then, she spun around and left the secretary's office.

Alya stretched her neck and watched Luca leave the office. She complained, "I do envy people who have connections. With just a word or two, all the documents were thrown back to me."

Tina was doing her work in front of Alya and heard her complaints. She did not turn around and just spoke on behalf of Luca, "If you have what it takes, you can also throw the workload back to her."

"What are you talking about, Tina? She's Mr. Crowford's woman. How could I dare to do so?" Alya gave in and flipped open the documents. She could not help but mutter, "After an entire morning, she only got so little done. She's so inefficient."

Tina said again, "Dr. Craw has her own things to deal with. If you can head down to do the research, someone will definitely take care of these documents for you."

"That's not my profession." Alya rolled her eyes.

Tina turned around while feeling impatient and looked at her. "That's not your profession, translation is. If that's the case, you should just focus on your work and not rely on someone else to help you with your work when translation is not their profession."

Alya noticed Tina was serious and immediately explained, "Don't get so worked up. I'm just complaining because of work pressure.” "Who isn't facing great pressure due to this project? In other words, who in the entire T Corporation isn't under great pressure? After all, the result is all that matters. Alya, if you can't catch up to the work pace after giving birth, there are still lots of people out there waiting to take over your position. You'd better not let Jason hear the words you just said. Otherwise, your career will be at risk.” Tina warned her.

"Alright." Alya dared not say another word but was holding a grudge against Tina. Why was she also supporting Luca?

Was it because Luca had a good relationship with Mr. Crawford?

After Luca left the secretary's office, she returned to her office and picked up her phone to contact Mo. She wanted to get a better understanding of what today's meeting would be about.

Mo informed her of the content of today's meeting.

Luca took a look at the message, and indeed, it was related to Dr. Albus applying for a patent and his drug being listed.

It seemed like this was the most updated news.

Luca held her chin and thought back to Abel's words.

He wanted to make Luke misunderstand Dr. Albus and put all the blame for the leaked research on Dr. Albus...

He had ordered her to carry out this mission, which meant that there would be his people among those going for the meeting later.

Luca thought about whether she should seize this opportunity to identify that person.

After all, knowing who her enemy was would make things easier for her.

Luca looked at the time, and it was almost time for her to meet up with Luke.

She figured that she might not have to return to the office. Hence, she kept the documents in a folder and brought it downstairs. She went all the way down to the basement car park.

Luca saw Luke's car, and after heading over, she realized that he was already waiting there.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Crawford. I'm late." She knew she was not late, but when faced with the man in front of her, she would be considered late as long as she got there after him.

Luke lifted his eyes and looked at her with a cold gaze.

Luca looked into his eyes and shuddered. Then, she lowered her head again.

After so long, she was still not used to his extraordinarily cold gaze.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1886-Luke noticed she was evading his gaze and was feeling helpless.

She failed to make out the helplessness and frustration in his eyes.

"You're indeed late, Dr. Craw. Say, how should I punish you?" Listening to Luke's deep voice, it sounded like he was angry.

Luca was astonished as Luke was not the type to mutter gibberish.

She thought he would just coldly say, 'Get in the car.' After all, she was not actually late.

However, Luke did not act the way she expected and asked her directly how he should punish her.

The word 'punish' was usually used as a joke between couples, parents speaking to their children, or even teachers speaking to their students. This sort of thing was not something that a boss would say to his subordinates.

"Hmm?" Luke voiced out after noticing that Luca had yet to reply.

Luca felt that something was off about Luke. She had no choice but to say, "Mr. Crawford, I don't think I should be punished.”

"Tell me your reasoning." Luke saw her lower her head and wanted to lift her chin with his hand before kissing her.

"I arrived here eight minutes earlier than the time you stated. Logically speaking, I'm not late," Luca explained. This was not how one survived in the workplace, but she had to say it.

'Otherwise, will I really be punished by Lyke?'

"Then tell me, are you in the wrong?" Luke squinted his eyes. 'After changing her identity, she has gotten better at talking, so how could she allow a man like that to keep pestering her?'

Luke was mad.

Luca felt chilly. She clenched her fists and took a deep breath. "It's my fault for making my superior wait for me, but this is about principals at work. I'm not really at fault here."

Luke heard her debating with him and felt helpless. He pulled the door of the driver's seat and said, "Get in the car."

Luca let out a deep breath of relief. That issue was finally over. She quickly got around the car and opened the door of the front passenger seat before getting in.

Luke ignited the engine and headed toward Watson Biopharmaceuticals.

Luca thought the incident was over, but when they got out of the parking lot, she realized it was not.

The moment the car left the car park, Luke slammed on the gas pedal as if he was in a hurry. She knew that all men would unleash their frustration by driving fast.

She grabbed the seatbelt in front of her, not saying a word. Since it was not after working hours, there were not too many cars on the road.

She knew that Luke had good driving skills.

Luca was not worried about meeting with an accident on the road but was worried he might be stopped by the traffic police. With that, news about the president of T Corporation speeding on the road and endangering the citizens' life would be in the headlines the next day.

Luke stared hard at the road ahead and had no intention of slowing down.

As for the woman in the front passenger seat, she was not in shock and did not say a word.

Luca was much more mature.

After three years, she was not anxious when sitting in a car that was going at full speed.

Luke continued slamming the gas pedal and asked, "Aren't you scared?"

Luca was very calm. "Your driving skills are good, Mr. Crawford."

"Luca, your carefree appearance makes me have the urge to just dig out your heart and draw out your blood just to see whether or not you're a cold-blooded person." Luke clenched the steering wheel, and the veins on the back of his hands were popping out.

Luca was stunned. 'What does he mean by that?'

"Mr. Crawford, I don't get what you're trying to say." Her expression remained the same.

Luke heard what she said and got even more frustrated. "Luca..."

Listening to him shout her name made Luca dumbfounded. She knew he was angry.

She did not say a word as she knew whatever she said would only be adding oil to the fire.

"You're indeed cold-blooded." Luke breathed out but was still unable to get rid of the frustration within him.

'Maybe,' Luca lowered her head and thought inwardly.

'If I'm not cold-blooded, how can I withstand seeing him and the kids being so sad?'

Luke gave a honk and overtook the car in front of him. He could not help but question her, "Why do you attend the blind date?"

Luca lifted her head and was astonished. 'So, he does know about it.'

"Explain." Luke's face tilted to the side as he asked her. He wanted to hear her explain it.

"Mr. Crawford, it's my freedom to choose whether or not to attend blind dates. I'm not young anymore. Isn't it normal for me to go on blind dates, get a boyfriend, and then get married and give birth to children?" Luca did not say the true reason but said something that might make others believe her.

Luke was mad because she went for the blind date, which meant he really cared about her.

However, she could not make the man take another step. Hence, she did not tell him the truth, which was that she attended the blind date just because she did not want Jack and Queenie to worry.

"Married? Luca, are you even taking my words seriously?" Luke got angrier when he heard Luca's explanation.

'Could it be that after three years, she has really forgotten about this family, me, and the kids? Is she mad at me for having done nothing in the past three years?' "Mr. Crawford, what you said back then was just nonsense said in the spur of the moment.” Luca became cold-hearted and wanted to draw the line between them. She was not willing to have them both develop deeper feelings for each other.

"Nonsense, huh? Luca, do you wish for me to tie you on the bed? Will you then realize whether or not the things I said are the truth or just utter nonsense?” Luke drove faster, reaching the limit.

"Enough, Mr. Crawford!" Luca felt a pinch in her heart when she heard what Luke said. She interrupted him, saying, "You're my boss, not my boyfriend. For two people to get into a relationship, their feelings

must be mutual. Thanks for taking a liking to me, but I don't like you. It's impossible for us to be together!"

Luke's eyes became red. It was not because he was speeding but Luca's reply.

After three years had passed, she actually said such a thing. She was ruthlessly shoving him away again!

"Do you mean it?" Luke suddenly slowed the car down and felt defeated.

He wanted to do everything possible to make Luca tell the truth, but he could not be too greedy.

It was not a simple feat for them to have reunited. He would not just give up like this.

"I mean it. Both of us don't have a future together. Mr. Crawford, please spare me. I really love my work. If you force me just because you're my boss, I'll leave the company," Luca said coldly, but deep inside her, she was hurt as well.

She wanted to be together with Luke and live a peaceful life with the kids.

However, she could not do so...

It may seem that they were very close together, but in fact, there was a huge gap between them.

Luca lowered her eyes and felt the speed of the car gradually reducing. It was back to the normal speed. She let out a breath of relief.

"As you wish," Luke said those words through gritted teeth.

He did not expect her to threaten him and say she would leave the company just to maintain a distance from him.

'It seems like throughout these three years, Luca has learned how to be a cold-hearted person.'

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1887-When she heard him saying those words, Luca felt a pinch in her heart.

If she had the chance, she was not willing to be this cruel to Luke either...

Luca lowered her eyes and felt the speed of the car gradually slow down. Luke no longer said a word. It was as if he had calmed down and was not as crazy as before.

However, she could sense the atmosphere becoming much chillier as Luke was no longer saying anything. He just kept everything within himself.

Luca sighed, and her instinct was telling her that this was not the end of it.

The things Luke told her made Luca know that he was serious about her.

It was not just a superficial liking, nor was it because he could not tolerate being lonely. It was just like before when she was Bianca. Being cornered by Luke like this made her feel as though she had returned to the past.

Luca knew that her words were hurtful, but she could not explain herself. She could only pretend as though nothing had happened.

Luke drove the car and arrived at Watson Biopharmaceuticals. Luca immediately unbuckled the seat belt the instant he stopped the car.

She did not want to spend another second being in the car with Luke.

Making things clear between them was much better than if she were to just follow Abel's order.

Luke's eyes glistened with anger when he saw Luca's swift action. If he found out who it was that made his woman end up in such a situation, he would not let them off the hook.

Luca could not be bothered about work ethics right now and immediately entered Watson Biopharmaceuticals. She still had the access card that Mo previously gave her inside her bag, so she swiped it and entered.

She was not worried about what would happen to Luke even if he did not have the pass. After all, he was the boss of this place. It would only be natural for the security guards to welcome him.

Luca took the elevator and arrived at the office floor. She walked straight into the assistant's office.

Mo saw her and said with a smile, "You're here, Dr. Craw."

"Yeah, we're supposed to enter the meeting room now, right?" Luca asked.

"Yes. A few professors are already in the meeting room downstairs. I'll head down after I arrange the documents," said Mo. She sneaked a peek behind Luca. "Where's the boss? Didn't he come with you?"

As they both came from the headquarters, Mo thought that they would show up together.

"Mr. Crawford? I think he'll be here in a few minutes." After saying that, Luca changed the topic. "If that's the case, I'll go downstairs."

"Alright, Dr. Craw." Mo nodded. As she watched Luca leave, she shook her head helplessly. She continued to get the documents ready.

Luca came downstairs and walked into the meeting room. There were already a few professors who had arrived.

Luke had yet to arrive. Perhaps parking the car had delayed his arrival.

"You're here, Dr. Craw."

"Good afternoon, Dr. Craw."

"Hello." Luca nodded when faced with the few professors who greeted her. She noticed there were no name cards placed on the table. Hence, she just sat in the corner.

"Why are you sitting in the corner, Dr. Craw?" Dr. Albus came to her with a radiant look on his face. After today's meeting, he would be able to hand in the paperwork needed for the patent application. He was delighted. Coupled with the fact that Luca had previously helped him out, he treated her warmly.

"It's the same no matter where I sit. Of course, I'll leave the best seats to the seniors," Luca said. The main reason was that she wanted to avoid Luke.

After the incident earlier, she did not want to be so close to him.

Luca's comment made lots of professors admire her and nod their heads.

After all, she was not welcome in this company back then. She was capable but way too young. With her shining too brightly, it hid all of their achievements which they only managed to accomplish after so many years.

Hence, there were a few professors who disliked her.

Later on, they heard from Dr. Albus that Luca had left behind past matters and was willing to put her work aside to help him out. It made a few professors change their impression of her.

After all, it would be better to have an additional friend than an enemy. Perhaps one day, they would need Luca's help in their research.

"Why bother saying all this? We're all colleagues. Come, let's go and sit in front." Dr. Albus was still treating her warmly. Later when it was time for him to give his report, he would definitely mention Luca.

After all, everyone in the company knew that Luca had helped him out.

"No thanks, Dr. Albus. I'll just sit here." Luca insisted. She was paying attention to the door of the meeting room. The moment she saw Luke entering, she said, "Mr. Crawford is here."

Dr. Albus did not pay any more attention to Luca when Luke came in and quickly went forward to greet Luke.

"Mr. Crawford, sorry to trouble you to come all the way here despite your tight schedule." Dr. Albus went forward and greeted Luke politely.

Luke was not in a good mood, especially when he noticed Luca sitting in a corner.

The meeting room was so spacious, and there were plenty of seats. However, she chose to sit in a corner. It was obvious that she was trying to avoid him.

'Am I a virus? Or a poisonous animal? Why is she deliberately trying to sit far away from me?'

Thinking back at the times when they were so close to each other and comparing them to the current situation when Luca was distancing herself from him, Luke felt angry and wanted to request her to sit beside him.

Dr. Albus thought he had said something wrong as Luke did not say a word after he greeted him. Hence, he said softly, "Mr. Crawford?"

Luke looked at him coldly.

Dr. Albus shuddered. It seemed that their boss was in a foul mood today. He quickly pulled out the president's seat. "Have a seat, Mr. Crawford."

The other professors saw the scene and noticed that something was off. They did not say a word.

Luke sat on the president's seat and looked at the few professors coldly. Then, he fixed his gaze on Luca.

Everyone would fight for the chance to sit closer to the boss, but Luca sat in the corner.

"Let's start the meeting." He withdrew his gaze and said coldly without any warmth in his words. That meeting on that day was obviously for Dr. Albus to announce the result of his research. It was supposed to be a piece of good news. After all, it would be Watson Biopharmaceutical's first profit- making project.

However, Luke had such a cold expression on his face.

The people present felt even more scared than if they were to hear a scary story.

Dr. Albus felt that something was off, but the meeting had to proceed. He nodded at Mo, who had just entered. "So, we shall begin the meeting, Mr. Crawford."

Mo heard it and put on the presentation.

Dr. Albus started talking about his research. He explained all the data and the results of the clinical trials.

Just reporting on the results alone took more than an hour.

After Dr. Albus was done, he looked at Luke. "That's the end of my presentation, Mr. Crawford."

"Alright." Luke still had an awful expression on his face. It was as though the company's profits had nothing to do with him.

Dr. Albus was dumbfounded. 'My presentation went fine, so why is Mr. Crawford's complexion still so dark...'

Feeling helpless, he continued, "The research for this drug is a success. The main reason behind it is the effort of the researchers in my team and also Dr. Craw. Thank you, everyone. Thank you, Dr. Craw."

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1888-Luca knew it was time for her to speak.

Even though Luke was there, she was not willing to talk but she still got to carry out Abel's order.

Luca smiled and looked at Dr. Albus. "You're welcome, Dr. Albus. The credit for this medication research still goes to your research team's effort. All I did was solve a tiny problem. Those crucial data and all analyses were still completed by you guys. I'm not involved in those."

Dr. Albus' eye glittered with admiration when he heard her reply. She did not hog all the glory.

'Very good. She knew a lot more about the rules in the career field compared to when she first entered.'

Luke got even more mad when he saw Luca smiling at Dr. Albus.

'She smiled so sweetly to a professor who is not related to her but to me, she could just blurt out such a mean statement.'

Luke suddenly got up and announced, "The meeting had ended."

Dr. Albus' smile froze and looked at Luke. "Mr. Crawford..."

"For the remaining stuff, just follow the protocol will do." Luke had a very awful look and after saying it, he left immediately.

Luca look at Luke's back figure which was leaving the scene and sighed within her. 'I think I should prepare myself and pack my luggage to move back to my condominium.'

Since she had blurted everything, it would not be appropriate for her to continue staying in the villa.

"Mr. Crawford, about the celebration feast." Dr. Albus followed up with Luke, astonished.

"You guys go ahead." After saying it, Luke walked to the elevator and repeatedly pressed on the button, as if the elevator had triggered him.

Dr. Albus dared not speak a word and watched Luke entering the elevator. Then, the door of the elevator closed before he slowly returned to the meeting room.

A few of the professors got up and asked when they saw Dr. Albus return, "Dr. Albus, what's wrong with Mr. Crawford?"

"I don't know either. Did I say anything wrong during my presentation?" Dr. Albus asked them.

The few professors shook their heads.

Dr. Albus looked at Luca. "Dr. Craw, do you know why Mr. Crawford is in such a state? Did I do something wrong?"

"It's not your fault, Dr. Albus. I think Mr. Crawford has been having a foul mood since he was in the headquarters. I guess something went wrong with the project," Luca said.

Her response calmed Dr. Albus. "As long the problem is not with me. It's getting late, let's head over to the hotel."

"Hotel?" Luca let out a suspicious tone.

"Yea, Dr. Craw. Let's go together. Today's the celebration feast for Dr. Albus and his research team. Mo has already booked a room in the hotel," said one of the professors.

Luca thought about it. It was only normal for them to organize a celebration feast, but she decided not to attend. She thought of returning before Luke did and left after she had packed her luggage.

"Dear professors, I'm sorry but I still got work to do. I really don't have any spare time." Luca rejected their invitation.

"Dr. Craw, it's just for a night..." one of the professors persuaded.

"Yea."

Luca felt troubled.

Mo smiled and explained on behalf of Luca, "Dear professors, stop troubling Dr. Craw. Right now, she still got to be in charge of the project at the headquarters. The project is on a tight schedule, and she hopes she would have a clone to carry out the job. How is she going to have the spare time?"

"That's right, it's very hectic." Luca had a helpless look on her face.

Dr. Albus heard it and did not pester. "Oh right, I almost forgot. How about this Dr. Craw, when you're free, let me treat you to a meal next time? Though, you have to come when I do. "

"I'll go for sure. Thank you, Dr. Albus." Luca felt guilty when she saw Dr. Albus being so steady.

If she was right, Mr. Bailey would apply for the copyright much earlier than Dr. Albus.

Then, Dr. Albus would lose everything and be faced with the crisis of being fired. In the world of research, Dr. Albus' future would be ruined if it was involving copying or plagiarism.

And as the mastermind of it, Luca could only softly apologize deep within her.

Dr. Albus nodded.

Luca picked up the office bag and followed them out. When they arrived at the elevator, she asked, "Oh right, Dr. Albus, earlier did Mr. Crawford go upstairs or downstairs?"

Dr. Albus recalled. "I think the elevator was sent downstairs. I think Mr. Crawford had gone back to the headquarters to continue with work."

"Yea." Luca prayed hard that she would not bump into Luke when she arrived downstairs.

A few professors wanted to head upstairs to pack up before leaving. Hence, Luca did not follow them but took the elevator alone and headed downstairs.

She walked out of the building of Watson. She let out a sigh of relief when she saw there was no car parking at the entrance.

She guessed perhaps Luke was livid and returned to T Corporation to settle his work.

Luca headed to the place to wait for a taxi and coincidentally she received a call from Tina.

"Dr. Craw, is the meeting over there over?" Tina asked.

"Yeah."

"You should go straight home once the meeting is over. You don't have to return to headquarters," Tina said.

"Alright, but what's happening?" Luca felt something was off.

"It's that the worker at the front counter called me, saying the man, who harassed you in the afternoon, is again at the entrance. This time, he didn't come in but squatted at the roadside, waiting for you. With that, the securities could do nothing to him," Tina said. In the afternoon on that day, the incident that occurred at the front counter was chaotic. Hence, they called up Luca's office.

However, no one picked up. Hence, they called to inform Tina about it, having her inform Luca.

"Is it Enoch? Alright, I got it." Luca was helpless. Because of Enoch, it led to her relationship with Luke became very stiff.

Initially, she could live the days off with satisfaction and she could also put up an act to stay with Luke and took care of the kids.

Currently, it was because of Enoch that those peaceful days were destroyed.

Luca sincerely hated that man and even had the thought of taking him down.

"That man is just like a pervert guy. You got to be careful. In the future whenever possible, please take the rear entrance or come in from the car park area. You never know when he is going to go crazy..." Tina hid in the pantry and reminded.

"Alright, thank you, Tina," Luca said with much gratitude.

"You're welcome, I'll resume my work then." After Tina said it, she quickly hung up the call.

Luca stood at the roadside with a dark expression. She would not go around offending others if that person had not offended her in the first place.

However, at that moment, her peaceful life was destroyed by Enoch. Luca guessed that it might be because of Enoch that made Queenie develop suspicions.

'Since he's not letting me off the hook, then please don't blame me for what's going to happen.'

Looking at the empty taxi that was coming to her, Luca then stretched out her hand to stop the cab.

After entering the cab, she sent a message to Amur. [Are you free, Amur? I want you to help me check on someone.]

After a few seconds, Amur replied. [Yes, I am. Who do you want me to check on?]

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1889-[Enoch Campbell. I don't have much information about him. All I have is his handphone number. His number is...] Luca came to a pause as she could not recall his number. Hence, she searched through the blacklist numbers to look for Enoch's number and sent it to Amur.

[He is also a government servant, not in a very high position. If you have the chance, I want all information about him. The best is his dark secrets.] Luca emphasized.

Luca had no idea whether Amur would be able to look into Enoch's dark secrets but for now, she could only pray hard that if Enoch really had dark secrets and Amur would coincidentally find them.

[How did he come to offend you?] Amur saw Luca's message waiting for dark secrets and knew that this person must have offended her.

'Those who offend Luca have no peaceful day.'

[He kept harassing me, causing me so much trouble. I want him to legally be out of my life.] Luca knew that Amur might go overboard, hence she empathized with the word legally.

She would admit if Enoch really did not have any dark secrets but if he did have, she would have a way to make him unable to show up before her.

Amur stared at the word legally for quite some time.

Luca was still a softhearted lady. 'She still uses such civilized method to go against someone who keeps harassing her.'

If it was not for that word, Amur would apply some underhanded method to make Enoch disappear as far as possible from Luca after he was done investigating.

[Roger.] Amur sent the message and frowned helplessly. He had no choice but to respect Luca's kindness.

Besides, if it was not for Luca's kindness back then, he would not be the person he was right then.

He would never forget back in the Island of Despair; she rescued him from a group of men who were much stronger than her.

Or else, he might have been beaten up so badly and ended up at the gates of hell a couple of days later.

Luca knew Amur would do things with a limit. She kept he handphone and looked at the scenery outside the window.

The thought of leaving Luke and the kids made her feel sad to do so.

Luca sighed and opened the photo album on her handphone. She keyed in the password and looked at Nyla's photos.

She gently touched the screen and imagined herself touching a kid. 'Nyla, I did all of this for your sake, but I've cheated on your father, as well as your brothers and sister.

'So, you got to be alright alone on the Island of Despair. Don't go around learning bad things from others.'

"We've arrived, miss." The driver interrupted Luca. She lifted her head and looked. It was indeed the villa. She gave him money and got out of the car.

She slowly returned to the villa at a slow pace.

That was because she knew that Luke would return to T Corporation to work overtime. Hence, she was not in a hurry to leave.

It was as if taking a step slower would mean delaying a minute of leaving.

However, no matter how slowly she was, she would still meet the end. She looked at the villa before her and sighed. She jammed onto the password and the door was opened. She pushed the door opened and entered.

The kids quickly ran out after they heard the sound.

"You're back, Ms. Luca!" It was always Tommy greeting her most warmly. His huge smile was just as warm as the sun, and it was as if winter would be chased away.

Luca looked at the kids surrounding her and touched all their heads, with her eyes glistening with unwillingness.

"Are you tired from work, Ms. Luca?" Rainie was the most caring kid as she was concerned for Luca.

"No, I'm not tired. I'm fine," said Luca.

"Ms. Luca, father just called back, saying he might not be back home tonight, and asked you to take care of us," said Lanie from a side.

Luca was astonished. 'Luke won’t be returning and he wants me to look after the kids?

'If he doesn't return, how can I leave in peace? After all, it's not safe leaving the three kids at home.'

"When did Mr. Crawford say that?" Luca asked.

Lanie looked at the clock and answered, "About half an hour ago. Father called back and said. Ms. Luca, we will be heading upstairs to do our homework."

After saying it, Lanie brought his siblings upstairs.

Luca initially was prepared to leave but Luke suddenly said he would not come back...

'Is he trying to make me stay?'

Luca shook her head and looked at the kids running upstairs. She knew she would not be able to leave today.

Even if she was still determined to leave, she could not ditch the kids at home. That would be too dangerous.

Luca picked up her handphone but did not have the courage to call Luke. Hence, she could only give up.

She casually placed the office bag on the sofa and then walked into the kitchen. It had been two days that she did not cook dinner for the kids because of the injury to her waist. That day, she was much better. Hence, she took the initiative to help the nanny and prepared dinner for the kids.

The nanny saw Luca coming in and said with a smile, "Ms. Luca, do you want to prepare dinner for the kids?"

"Yea, can I trouble you to assist me?" Luca said.

The nanny said while nodding with a smile, "No problem. Your cooking skills are so good. The kids love your cooking. I can still learn from you sneakily by being your helper. I'm the one who cooks the dishes for the past two days as you're not too well. I followed your cooking style and recipes and the kids said it tastes good, even if my cooking is still different from yours. Also, the kids in my home also said that my cooking had improved. They love my cooking."

"Really?" Luca smirked and wore the apron, starting to prepare dinner for the kids.

On the upstairs.

Lanie, Rainie, and Tommy were all in Lanie's room.

Tommy touched his chin and said with a curious look, "Lanie, say, why did father do this?"

Lanie snapped on his brother's head. "It's so obvious. For sure father had made Ms. Luca mad. So he's not coming back and using working overtime as an excuse."

"How did father make Ms. Luca mad? Besides, he can still come back home. Our mother is not a scary person. She's so soft and kind. For sure she would not be mad at father," Rainie said as she never saw their mother being this mad.

Lanie could not help but shook his head when he saw his siblings' innocent look. "It's not wrong to think of it that way. But now, she's using another identity. If father and Ms. Luca really are in a fight, perhaps she might move out. So, father didn't come back at all so to make her stay back. Ms. Luca loves us so much, for sure she would not be willing to leave us home at night without any adults looking after us." "She's going to move out?" Tommy was shocked to hear it and quickly said, "If she's going to move out, I rather not have father return home."

"But I missed father too, but I don't want her to leave..." Rainie was troubled. 'Why are everyone's parents staying together and not us? Not just did our parents stay apart, but our mother also changed her appearance and identity. In the meantime, she's been acting so stiffly with our father.”

'She is our mother yet we can't acknowledge her.'

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1883-"Who arranged the blind date?" Luke asked again.

Tina shook her head. "Dr. Craw never mentioned it, but I heard it's a senior she respects a lot. Hence, when the blind date was arranged for her, she had no choice but to attend. It was just that she never expected to get involved with such an annoying man.”

Luke's eyes became gloomy. "So you knew about her going on a blind date a long time ago?”

"Yes, but Dr. Craw said that she doesn't have any feelings for that guy. That's why I didn't report it to you. I'm sorry, Mr. Crawford. It's my fault." Tina lowered her head and obediently admitted that it was her fault.

Luke had mentioned earlier that she must always take note of everything related to Luca and report back to him instantly if there was anything.

Tina just thought that since Luca had no feelings for that man, she did not need to report it to Luke. After all, she did not want his emotions to be affected. However, they were both affected by this matter in the end.

'I didn't expect Enoch to be such a nuisance. Even Mr. Crawford has found out about it.'

"I told you to report everything to me," Luke said.

"It's my fault. Please punish me, Mr. Crawford." Tina had a bitter look on her face. She was ready to have her salary deducted as a punishment. As long as she was not fired, she would accept it.

"Don't let such a thing happen for the second time. Continue to keep an eye on her for me,” said Luke. He would be much busier later on with a lot of matters to deal with, so he might not be able to keep tabs on Luca.

Hence, he would still need Tina to help him keep an eye on Luca.

After all, Tina was a woman, so it would be much more convenient for her to approach Luca as compared to Jason.

"Yes, sir." Tina let out a breath of relief after knowing that Luke had no intention of punishing her.

"Off you go," Luke said and picked up his phone.

Tina nodded and got out of the office. When she closed the office door, she did it softly so that she would not cause a racket.

Luke was the only one left in the office. After getting to know the truth, he was still very mad.

First of all, he was mad at Luca for going on the blind date. She was his wife and a mother to three children. Even though she had changed her appearance, it did not change that fact.

Next, she was pestered by another man. Even though she had rejected that man, she did not inform him and even asked Tina to keep it from him!

It seemed that he had given her way too much time and space. He was being too lenient with her, which was why she did these things without considering his feelings.

Luke called Jack.

The call was connected, and Jack asked, "Luke, is there anything you need that you're calling me at this hour?”

"Jack, were you the one who arranged for Enoch to go on a blind date with Luca?” Luke spoke with a stern tone.

Jack was stunned and laughed. "So, you've come to know about it?"

"He's pestering Luca and even came to the company today," said Luke. He was utterly disgruntled when he thought of his woman being in another man's mind. Furthermore, that man was a nobody.

He would not tolerate his woman being in another man's mind.

Jack made a hand gesture and had his secretary leave the office.

After the secretary left, he explained, "I had no idea that Luca was Bianca before this. Your mother- inlaw was worried that Luca's appearance would be in the way of Bianca's happiness. Hence, she thought of introducing Luca to a boyfriend. If she agreed to go on a blind date, it would mean that she had no feelings for you. Coincidentally, she agreed to it, so we arranged a blind date for her. It was only that once. Things didn't work out between them, so we didn't force them to get together. We weren't plotting anything. You know this, right? It's just that we didn't expect Enoch to be such a person. But we previously came to an agreement, and Enoch promised not to bother Luca again. Why did he..."

Luke had now learned the truth behind it. He had nothing else to say despite still being mad.

It was all because the Normans had no idea that Luca was Bianca before this.

Even up to this point, Queenie was still clueless.

Luke spoke with a deep voice, "Today, Enoch came to the company and pestered Bianca. I want to deal with him."

Enoch was Jack's subordinate, so he had to inform Jack about his intention to deal with Enoch first.

Jack had no opinion about it. After all, they had previously come to an agreement. If Enoch had not continued to pester Luca, perhaps Jack would want to protect him. After all, he had a bright future ahead.

Nevertheless, he kept pestering Luca. Even though they were the ones who arranged the blind date, Enoch, as a man, should be more open-minded even if he and Luca could not be a couple at the end of the day. He should not continue to pester her.

Hence, Jack had no intention of protecting Enoch. He just said, “You can do whatever you want. Anyway, it has already been brought to my attention that Enoch is not the gentleman I thought he was.”

After getting the green light from Jack, Luke then hung up.

He had only called to clarify whether it was Jack and his wife who introduced Enoch to Luca. He also wanted to inform Jack that he would be making a move against Enoch.

It would be a piece of cake for him to do so.

It was just that since Enoch was the man Jack had introduced, it meant that Jack must think highly of him. That was why Luke decided to give Jack a heads-up about it first. That way, he would not be upset if Luke took action against Enoch.

However, since Jack had voiced his agreement, he might as well go all out.

'Enoch...'

Luke softly said the name, his eyes giving out a murderous aura.

He gave the man’s basic information to Percy as he was much better at investigating people. Besides, Luke would be very busy in the coming days. Hence, he had Percy help him look into Enoch. When it was time to make a move, Luke would personally deal with Enoch.

[Name: Enoch Campbell. He’s working in the provincial capital. I want to know everything about him, including his dark secrets.] Luke sent Percy a message.

After some time, Percy replied: [I've looked into him. He's just an ordinary guy. How did he offend you?]

Seeing that Percy was being a busybody, Luke decided to just satiate his curiosity. [He has a crush on my women.]

[Damn it, he’s done for. Give me two days.] Percy replied.

[That’s too slow.] Luke believed that with the connections Percy had, he did not need two days.

[I'm quite busy lately. Even though he should be taken down for having a crush on your woman, you should still be considerate of me.] Percy complained. He was exhausted from having to deal with Pierre’s matters.

He had decided to deal with his younger brother without giving him a chance to regain his status.

Luke replied: [Alright. Two days.]

After instructing Percy, Luke picked up the internal line and ordered Jason, "Call for a meeting in half an hour.”

"Yes, Mr. Crawford." Jason let out a breath of relief. Luke seemed to be his usual self again. 'So, does this mean everything is over?'

He dared not make any wild guesses and quickly passed down the order to prepare for the meeting.

After Luca and her lunch, she received the notification to attend the meeting and was dumbfounded.

'Luke is back?'

She quickly checked the flights, trying to figure out the flight that Luke had taken.

After checking, she felt uneasy. Taking into account the time taken to travel from the airport, it was likely that Luke arrived at the office at noon.

‘If that’s the case, did he see the scene of Enoch pestering me?'

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1890-"Right now, we don't have any way to help father but to wait for him to settle it himself," said Lanie. Forcing Luca to stay back would only make her feel suspicious.

However, Luke could only use the excuse of staying back for work and not returning for only a day or two.

Lanie's small face which was similar to Luke became serious but deep in his heart, he was praying hard, hoping their father would think of a way to comfort Luca soon.

At night, after the kids had dinner, they completed their remaining homework.

Luca checked on their works and imitated Luke's signature to sign their homework. Then, she accompanied the kids to watch cartoons while she worked.

It was still manageable for her to look after the kids while working.

Fortunately, the kids were obedient and just sat still to watch their cartoons. When it was time for advertisement, they would eat fruits and drink their water, not intending to disturb her.

It went on till 10 o'clock at night. Luca looked at the clock and looked at the entrance.

It was dead silence outside. It seemed that Luke was not going to return home.

'He must have predicted I will leave so he used such a method.

'However, this method can only be used for one or two days. It's impossible for him not to return home for the long term. After all, the kids are at home, and he will be worried.

'In the end, I'll still have to leave. What's the point of him trying his best to deny it?'

"Ms. Luca?" Tommy waved his hand and looked at her with big eyes, feeling sad within him. 'Why is she daydreaming? Is she thinking of our father?'

Luca snapped out and looked at the kids. "What's wrong?"

"The cartoon is over, Ms. Luca. We will be heading up to take a bath," Tommy said.

"Alright. If you wash your hair, make sure to dry it," Luca said and saved the data on her laptop, and kept her documents.

After the kids went upstairs, she followed them as well.

After the kids were done bathing, Luca wished them all good night and continued heading back to her bedroom to work.

She was focusing on her work while continued paying attention to the commotion outside.

On the other hand, Percy and Jim kept shaking their head and looked at the drunken Luke.

Luke had already drunk three bottles of liquor. No matter how good liquor was, it would be a waste if he just chugged it; there would be no point.

"It's already the fourth bottle. If you continue drinking like that, you might as well just drink beer. It won't cost as much, and we can't take turns drinking it. It won't be a waste of money and it makes you drunk easily," Jim teased while having one leg over the other, picking up a glass of red wine and counting the number of bottles Luke had drunk, bored.

He would not be bothered about the liquors drank as he was not the one who would be paying for it.

He thought to himself. 'This is interesting.'

All this while, Luke was a rationale guy. After so many years, Jim was still able to see Luke get drunk because of a woman and he found it interesting.

Besides, this time, it seemed like he was left with no other options.

Percy lifted his eyebrows, teasing Luke as well, "I also didn't expect you'll be unable to hold back your anger."

Luke ignored them and continued drinking the liquors. He was also not bothered that his friends had to work the next day, and only thought of drinking.

"How should I put it?" Jim knew that Luke was drunk because of a woman but was not too sure about the exact details behind it.

"It took him quite an effort for him to have a better relationship with that Bianca, who had changed her appearance, and even stayed together. In the end, he found out that Bianca was attending a matchmaking session without his knowledge. All his anger was then unleashed in an instant. Not just he's going to take down that guy but even came out clear about his feelings for her, forcing Bianca to make a decision. In the end, guess what happened?" Percy smirked.

Seeing his best friend being in such a terrible state made him thrilled.

"I'm guessing Bianca rejected him." Jim was spot on. "This issue is so complicated. Now is not the right time to be confessing, alright?"

"Love blinds one. The same goes for jealousy. So, you must understand and forgive him," said Percy as he was experienced in that situation as well.

"But he shouldn't be in such a hurry. Isn't this issue yet to be investigated thoroughly? Or was it that Bianca had taken interest in that guy from the matchmaking session?" Jim analyzed.

"Nope. She doesn't have the slightest interest in him. It seemed like she felt frustrated as well but our young master Luke, couldn't tolerate it." Percy shook his head. Thinking back to when he first been together with Nina, he was able to take it in and was not like Luke, unable to bear the anger.

Besides, they still had the kids to tie them down. One look at it and it was obvious that Bianca was not the type to discard her kids and be with another man. He could not understand as well the reason for Luke to handle this situation terribly.

'Why can't he just quietly get rid of Enoch?'

"Maybe this is the relationship after a marriage, having no self-confidence and worried that she might leave him with someone else." As Jim was analyzing, he continued to tease Luke.

"Get lost!" Luke threw an empty bottle toward them both after listening to his best friends' comments.

Percy and Jim dodged it while smiling.

"What's wrong? We're not the one who's making you mad."

"I asked you guys here to drink not to make fun of me." Luke flipped a blind eye. If he knew they were going to tease him for so long, he might as well not comment about it.

"Well, we won't out best you in drinking. Besides, our love lives are quite good and we've nothing to complain about. Furthermore, with us analyzing it, isn't it helping you out to think of a way to make your wife stay back?" Percy smiled and sat beside Luke while talking on the latter's shoulder.

The more a terrible state he was in, the happier Percy would be.

After all, being good friends, apart from supporting each other in difficult times. They would spend most of their time teasing each other.

Luke had teased him numerous times as well.

Listening to what Percy had to say, Luke felt it was all just crap.

He did not make a sound and took a bottle of liquor and drank.

Looking at the defeated Luke made Percy predict that later on, Luke would be so drunk and lay on the sofa while muttering Luca's name.

He still could not help but said, "Actually, about this issue, it is not just dead ends. There's still a way out of it."

Luke thought Percy was cracking a joke. 'Right now, apart from locking Luca, not letting her leave, there wouldn't be another way out.'

Even though the kids were her weakness, it was obvious that she was on a mission. Besides, the thing that was used to threaten her or to control her would possibly be much more important than the kids.

Besides, he was not willing to lock Luca.

"You got an idea? Tell me about it." Jim got curious.

"The way is..." Percy kept him in suspense and did not say anything but looked at Luke. "Whether or not this method is going to be effective or what will the outcome be like, it will all depend on whether or not Luke is harsh."
