Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1991-It was Vivian's full name too.

Besides, Gordan could recognize that it was Vivian's signature with just a glance. Her handwriting was beautiful. There were few people who could control their strength so well to write down such beautiful words.

Gordan suddenly realized that apart from Vivian's ugly looks, she seemed to be a nice woman. It was just that the appearance of a woman was important for Gordan.

Ray looked at Gordan, who was lost in thoughts. Gordan was expressionless and did not say a word. Ray finally lost his temper and said, "Are you happy now?"

Gordan looked at the divorce papers and quickly read them through. He was surprised that the ugly woman would give up all her entitlements.

Did she think that he would care about this villa?

If it were not for her and Ray restricting him, he did not care where he would stay.

He only chose a villa that he liked to make him feel more comfortable when he spent his days being deprived of his freedom.

Hence, he did not need Vivian's sympathy and empathy. He did not want the villa!

Gordan felt awkward. He looked at Ray and asked, "Where is she?"

"I can't find her! Gordan Norton, Vivian signed the divorce papers and went into hiding. She didn't want to let you see her sorrows. Do you have any idea how dangerous it is out there? She's not afraid of that either. She just doesn't want to face you right now.

"Vivian is such a kind girl. She'd rather fulfill your wish than care about her own feelings. What about you? Think about it, what have you done for her all these years!" Ray was not a talkative person. However, since he could not wake Gordan up with violence now, he had no choice but to talk to him and try to rouse his conscience.

"Shut up!" Gordan's eyes were cold. "Stop blaming me for Vivian's actions. If you two hadn't restricted me, things wouldn't have ended up like this today, would they?"

Ray took a step back with a cold, hard stare.

Ray lifted his hand. Gordan thought he was going to start a fight, so he threw the divorce papers aside and prepared to fight back. They could fight, but the divorce papers could not be ruined.

However, Ray's gestures were out of Gordan's expectations.

Ray lifted his hand, pointed at his nose, and warned him, "If something bad happens to my sister, you'll be the first person I'll come looking for."

“That'll be her problem if something happens to her. Once I sign the divorce papers, I'll have nothing to do with your sister and your family anymore!” Gordan said heartlessly, reminding Ray that it was Vivian who took the initiative to ask for a divorce.

"You!" Ray looked at the divorce papers on the floor. Perhaps, he should not have let Gordan see this. He should have destroyed the agreement.

However, that would be against Vivian's will. Ray could not do it.

Gordan sneered and closed the door.

Ray looked at the door and kicked it hard. Still, it could not unleash the anger in his heart.

How could Vivian ask for a divorce at this time? Was she not letting Gordan, that bastard, off too lightly?

The maid who stood aside was on tenterhooks. She was worried that the two of them would get into a fight again. This time, Vivian was not here to stop them. Gordan might get beaten to death.

Fortunately, they did not end up fighting with each other.

The maid reminded Ray, "Young Master Ray, our priority now is to find out where Ms. Vivian is. The villa's security guards have retrieved the surveillance footage outside the entrance. Why don't you take a look at it? Perhaps we can figure out something."

"Let's go.” Ray glared at the door. Gordan was lucky enough to have Luke backing him up. It was for Luke's sake that Ray did not lay his hand on him.

One day in the future, after Ray returned Luke's favor, he would not hold back anymore. At that time, when Gordan had nothing to do with Vivian anymore, he could not blame Ray for not showing mercy.

In the bedroom.

Gordan bent down and picked up the two copies of the divorce agreement. He accidentally pulled his wound on his waist. It hurt so much that he grimaced in pain.

Previously, when Ray fought with Gordan, Vivian would shamelessly come to his room to help him dress his wound. She was not here this time.

It turned out that she was planning for a divorce.

"Vivian, well done." Gordan sat on the sofa and looked at the divorce agreement. His eyes darkened. When he got the divorce agreement, the moment of ecstasy did not last for more than two seconds.

The reason was that even though it was a divorce agreement, he was dissatisfied with the contents of it.

She was leaving him the common property that the two of them had been sharing?

What did Vivian view him as in all these years? Was he a gigolo?

Was this villa his compensation?

How insulting was that?!

Gordan could accept a fair share of marital assets. He could even accept it if Vivian requested that all their assets should be taken by her. He was unable to accept this.

Gordan picked up his phone and thought of calling Vivian. However, he remembered what the maid had told Ray just now.

They could not reach Vivian.

Gordan curled his lips, but he stopped as doing that would tear the wound on his face. Although they could not reach her, he might be able to reach her.

Vivian asked for a divorce, then she went missing. She was leaving everything to him just to catch his attention.

She would still pick up Gordan's call if he called her!

Gordan dialed her phone number with confidence. However, the next second, there came the awkward voice of the operator from the other end of the line. He was startled.

The automated female voice from the other end of the line told him that the phone had been turned off.

No one was able to reach Vivian...

Gordan put his phone aside, thinking of reaching Vivian in some other way. However, he realized that he had no other way to reach her.

He did not add Vivian as his friend on every messaging app he used.

It was not that Vivian did not want him to add her but Gordan had refused to. He refused to be kept under control by a woman.

Gordan could not help but feel irritated. He stood up and walked to his door. Then, he pulled the door open. He could see what was going on downstairs through the railing along the corridor.

A few guards were sitting on the sofa in the living room. Ray was standing beside them, watching the surveillance footage.

It seemed like they were looking for Vivian too.

Vivian would usually look for Ray right away if anything happened. She would hide at his place, taking it as her shelter. This time, she did not look for Ray.

She did not have many friends in Russia because of her looks.

Gordan returned to his room, picked up his phone, and made a call.

“Mr. Norton, it's late. Is there anything you'd like us to do?" A man's voice that sounded stiff came from the other end of the line.

The person's voice had gone through the computerized handling of a voice changer.

"I need you to help me to look for someone," said Gordan.

"Who?"

"Vivian." Gordan looked at the divorce papers and took a deep breath.

"Your wife? You know as well that our fees are charged according to the net worth of the person you're looking for. Your wife has a wealthy family background. The charges will be expensive.." said the man.

"Money is no problem. I have plenty of it," Gordan replied impatiently. ''I need you to find her no matter how much the price is."

Vivian even gave him the villa. Would Gordan be short of money?

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1992-Not to mention that Gordan had enough money even if he did not have the villa.

Even though he had been kept by Vivian's side in the past few years, he still took up jobs. Many underworld organizations in Russia needed foreign aid to help them to handle some troublesome matters. Gordan had skills, and he did things efficiently. He was able to complete the missions he was assigned to.

However, he did not have many resources when it came to searching for someone. He was too lazy to look for Vivian, that ugly woman, himself. That was why he asked someone to look for her.

"Mr. Norton, that's very straightforward of you. I'll arrange it now." The man on the other end of the line was not even concerned that it was in the middle of the night. He did not think about waiting for tomorrow.

As long as the money was in place, they would be ready to work anytime.

"As quickly as possible," Gordan urged them. Since Vivian was asking for a divorce, he had to seize the chance so that she would not regret it after this.

Gordan was looking for her only to ask her to amend the contents of the agreement.

"Leave it to us. Don't worry." The man on the other end of the phone hung up the call.

Gordan put his phone aside. He narrowed his eyes. Where could Vivian be hiding?

Although Russia was her homeland, she did not have many friends because of her ugly appearance. It did not matter that she came from a rich family.

Vivian realized that, which was why she cut off ties with those who approached her only because of her money and status.

Where could she go?

The only place that came across Gordan's mind was a hotel.

Although Russia had many hotels, everyone needed to use their identification number to register if they wanted to stay in a hotel. Those people would be able to find her whereabouts quickly.

The following day.

Luca woke up early in the morning due to the jet lag. She glanced at the dark sky and stared blankly at it for a while.

Had she woken up too early?

However, she usually woke up at this hour. Even though she was having jet lag, she could not fall asleep anymore. Hence, she woke up and freshened herself up before getting changed.

Luca drew the curtains. It was dazzlingly bright. She stared at the scenery outside the window. The snow was beautiful.

Luca walked out of her room and glanced at Luke's room.

The door was closed. It seemed like Luke was still asleep.

The hotel's soundproofing should be fine. Luca slowly walked to the kitchen. She thought of making breakfast first since she could not go back to sleep.

The ingredients were more Western-style as they were in Russia. Hence, she could only make some Western breakfast.

After she finished preparing breakfast, she brought her portion of breakfast along with her to the dining room. Then, she heard the sound of the door opening.

Luke was awake.

Luca glanced in the direction of his room. Indeed, she saw him maneuver the wheelchair and slowly come out.

Luke was surprised to see Luca was already sitting at the dining table. He asked, “Why did you wake up so early?"

"Jet lag," answered Luca. She stood up and said, "Mr. Crawford, I made breakfast. Would you like to have some?"

"I haven't freshened up yet," said Luke.

"Let me help you." Luca walked toward him. The facilities that the hotel provided were built according to adults' needs. It was inconvenient for Luke, who was sitting in the wheelchair now.

It was just like yesterday. She had helped him too.

Luca helped Luke to wash up just like how she did it previously. She pushed Luke into the bathroom.

The hotel staff knew that Luke was in a wheelchair, so they had installed an angled board for him for his convenience.

After Luca walked into the bathroom, she picked up a face tub that she bought and filled it with water for Luke to wash his face.

Although they were in a different place, the things she did were still the same. Luca had gotten used to taking care of Luke over the years, so she was still good at taking care of him now.

After Luca helped Luke to freshen himself up, she pushed the wheelchair and stopped at the dining table. "Mr. Crawford, let me serve you breakfast."

"Alright." Luke nodded. It was still early in Russia, but the two of them had gotten used to their routine in the Capital. That was why Luke felt hungry now.

Luca brought the breakfast that she had prepared to him and said, "The ingredients in the fridge are mostly from here. That's why I made a Western-style breakfast for you."

"It's alright." Luke picked up the knife and fork, eating his breakfast slowly. He enjoyed every breakfast that Luca prepared for him.

It was because Luca was the one who made it.

The doorbell rang after the two of them finished breakfast.

“Let me see if it's Mr. Doyle." Luca stood up and went to open the door. It was still early in the morning, and it was unlikely to be the hotel staff. Thus, Luca reckoned that it was Jason who was pressing the doorbell.

She opened the door, and it was Jason, indeed.

"Good morning, Mr. Doyle." Luca stood aside to let Jason enter and walk in.

"Good morning, Dr. Craw. Is Boss awake?" Jason was unable to see what was going on in the living room as there was a shelf in between the living room and the dining room.

"He's awake and in the dining room. Did you wake up early too?" Luca went along with him and closed the door.

"Jet lag." Jason smiled bitterly. He slept late last night, but he woke up according to his routine. He did not have enough sleep.

"Have you eaten breakfast?" Luca continued to ask. She had no idea if the hotel provided breakfast this early.

"Yes," said Jason. He walked to the dining room and saw Luke there. Then, he greeted him, "Good morning, Boss."

"Good morning." The look on Luke's face was slightly cold because Jason had been chatting with Luca.

Jason noticed the expression on Luke's face, and he knew Luke was unhappy that he talked too much with Luca.

First, he was not as outstanding as Luke was. Secondly, he had a wife and children. He was no match for Luke. There was no need for Luke to be hostile to him, right?

"Boss, I ran into Mr. Ray, who was having his breakfast when I was at the restaurant downstairs just now. I was curious, so I went to talk to him. It seems like they're looking for Ms. Vivian," said Jason. He came here to inform Luke about this.

After all, Ray and Luke were friends. That was why he mentioned it to Luke.

"Looking for Vivian?" Luke frowned. He turned to look at Luca and recalled what she told him yesterday when they left the villa.

Luca told him that Vivian seemed to be depressed.

Luke even reminded Gordan to comfort Vivian because of this.

However, Gordan sounded like he did not care about this.

Now that Ray and his men were looking for Vivian at the hotel, that would indicate that Vivian was hiding from them. She was not taken away by anyone else.

Luca slightly frowned when she heard that and asked, "What happened to Vivian?"

Jason shook his head. He felt it would be better not to ask too many questions about Ray's matter.

"It must be Gordan. That bastard must have done something and made Vivian upset," answered Luke.

Jason did not say a word as he listened to Luke's tone. Luke sounded like he was angry.

Luca nodded and agreed with him.

Vivian cared too much about Gordan. That was why her emotions were somehow linked to Gordan. Although it was bad for her, she insisted on doing so. Outsiders like them could only watch her. They

were not in the position to comment on anything.

It was normal for Vivian to get so upset that she was even hiding somewhere now.

“Mr. Crawford, why don't you give Mr. Norton a call?" Luca suggested.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1993-"I'll call him later. Gordan is still in bed at this time," Luke glanced at the time and said.

Ray was trying his best to look for Vivian, but Gordan would not do so. Luke was pretty sure that Gordan was still lying on his bed, snoring loudly in his sleep.

There was a reason why Luke would ask Gordan instead of asking Ray directly.

Luke was closer to Gordan. It was much easier to open up to a closer friend.

Luca understood why Luke made such arrangements. She nodded and did not say anything more.

Luke looked at Jason and said, "Follow me."

"Alright, Boss." Jason followed behind Luke and left the dining room.

Luca watched the two of them head to Luke's room. After she placed the plates in the kitchen sink, she returned to her room too.

There would be professional hotel cleaners who would come to clean the place up.

Luca sat on the sofa and glanced at the time. It was still early...

The private clinics nearby would still be closed if she went out now.

There was no place for her to sit if she went outside. That was why she could only sit here and wait for the clinics to open.

Luca stared at the snow outside the window, and it reminded her of Nyla.

It seemed that Nyla had never seen snowfall since she was born.

Luca stared into the distance outside the window. Since leaving her daughter's side, this was the closest she had been to her. However, she did not have the guts to go back to see her daughter.

She was afraid that Abel would falsely accuse her of something. Also, she feared that she could never get out of the Island of Despair again once she returned.

Even though she dared not to tell Luke about it when she was facing him and she even kept her distance away from him, she realized that she was still in love with Luke. That was why she could not bear to leave him.

"Nyla, I'm so sorry." Before she left the island, Luca recalled that she had promised her daughter that she would come back to visit her whenever she had the chance.

It had been nearly half a year now, yet she did not get the chance to see her.

Luca waited until it was working hours, and only then did she head out.

The door was left open when she passed by Luke's room. She noticed that Jason was sitting beside Luke, and the two of them were handling their work.

Hence, she did not tell Luke anything, and Luke did not ask her either.

Luca planned to go to a clinic nearby as she referred to the GPS.

The nearest clinic to the hotel was some distance away.

Luca chose to hail a cab at the hotel entrance. The cab driver drove her there after she gave him the address.

Luca got out of the car when she arrived at the entrance of the clinic. She registered and asked the doctor if the clinic had the medicine she needed.

Unfortunately, they did not have the things she asked for.

Luca had no choice but to leave the clinic. She happened to see Vivian by the roadside when she was about to head to the next clinic.

“Ms. Vivian?" Luca blinked her eyes. She did not expect there to be such a coincidence.

Everyone was looking for Vivian, but she ran into her here without any effort.

Vivian unconsciously thought of running away when she heard someone calling her name.

"Ms. Vivian, please stop running. Ray's men are looking for you everywhere." Luca kept up with Vivian's pace hurriedly.

Vivian paused, turned around, and looked at her. She smiled bitterly and said, "So, you came looking for me too?"

Luca shook her head. She looked at Vivian's expression and was sure that something must have happened.

"No, I just happened to run into you when I was passing by. Besides, I didn't bring anyone with me. Mr. Ray is capable enough. He doesn't need my help." Luca explained.

Vivian thought to herself that what Luca said was true. She only came here for a business trip. Even though she had Luke by her side, Ray had a great number of subordinates. There was no need for him to trouble Luke to help look for her.

Vivian believed that Luca ran into her coincidentally.

Vivian looked up and glanced at the clinic behind Luca. Was Luca here to see the doctor?

However, none of that mattered to her. "Ms. Luca, can you please do me a favor?"

"You'd like to ask me not to tell Mr. Ray your whereabouts, right?" Luca was able to figure out what Vivian wanted to say.

"Yes." Vivian nodded.

"Sure, but I need something in exchange for your favor," said Luca. The reason Vivian was hiding in the hotel without letting anyone know about it was that she did not want them to find out where she was. It was reasonable for her to ask for a favor like this.

"Alright," Vivian replied immediately. No matter what Luca wanted in exchange, Vivian would be able to fulfill it as long as it was within her capabilities.

Vivian was pathetic. If she were to be brought back home, she hoped that it was Gordan who brought her back.

However, how could that be possible?

Gordan did not care if Vivian was dead or alive. Now that he knew she wanted a divorce, he must be celebrating now.

“You have to tell me what's going on." Luca did not want to interfere in this, but she was worried that Vivian would get depressed and think of ending her life.

No matter what, Vivian had helped her before. Luca could not bear to see such a thing happen to her.

Vivian took a deep breath and looked at her, "Are you busy now?"

"I'm free," replied Luca.

"Why don't we head to my room? It's cold here," said Vivian. The two of them had been standing here for a while. Their shoulders and heads were covered with snowflakes.

"Alright." Luca agreed and followed Vivian back to her hotel.

The two of them sat on the sofa in Vivian's hotel room. Each of them was holding a cup of warm tea.

Vivian smiled and said, "There's nothing special about the tea here. I hope you don't mind."

"I don't mind. A warm cup of tea is enough for me." Luca took a sip of the tea. She was more concerned about Vivian's condition than the tea.

Vivian looked awful.

She looked like she had not slept for days. Her skin was sallow and had lost its vibrant rosy healthy glow. The dark circles under her eyes and huge eye bags looked obvious on her medium skin tone. Vivian must have been crying for a long time.

Vivian smiled and nodded.

Vivian took a deep breath. She was slightly relaxed when she looked at Luca. Was it alright to dump her negative emotions onto Luca?

"Ms. Craw, do you really want to hear about it? It's nothing good and full of negativity." Vivian reminded Luca carefully. Gordan had told her before that it was wrong to spread negativity to someone else.

No one was born to be a punching bag for others to vent their emotions on. That was why she should not dump her emotions on anyone, including the people who were close to her.

Vivian thought it made sense. Hence, she had been dealing with a lot of her negative emotions alone at night.

This time, Vivian did not have the energy to embrace the emotions hidden in her heart anymore. She even realized that she would stay miserable and pessimistic for many years after leaving Gordan.

Gordon was like the sunshine she longed for, but it never shone into her heart.

Vivian would be satisfied with just looking at the expression on his face.

However, her sunshine would be disappearing soon...

"I'd like to find out why you're hiding here," Luca said confidently. The empathy in her heart surged a little.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1994-"I love Gordan very much. I fell in love with him at first sight." Vivian clasped the cup in her hand tightly and took a deep breath.

Luca nodded without interrupting her.

“I never thought that the man I fell in love with at first sight would be interested in me. Gordan came up to me and struck up a conversation with me. He has a fine sense of humor, and he didn't despise me for my ugly looks. Even though it was unbelievable, I fell even deeper in love with him when I met him for the second time. But later I learned that Gordan was only teasing me when he said he liked me. Still, I didn't mind. I've never asked for anything in my whole life. I'm ugly, so I don't have the right to speak. But when Gordan told me that he didn't like me and he was just fooling around, I came up with an idea." Vivian did not know Luca was actually Bianca. That was why she summarized it and explained her past as well as how she met Gordan.

"You kept him by your side?" Luca asked. She had heard about their past before.

"Yes. Gordan was good at fighting, but Ray has more capable men around him. I said I wanted him, so Gordan was left with no choice but to stay by my side. I thought he would be able to notice me and disregard my looks as long as I kept him around. But many years have passed and he still hasn't fallen for me. Instead, the hatred he has for me grows every day. Sometimes, when I ask him to keep me company, it's as though Ray is carrying a gun behind him and forcing him to do it. Even so, I'd be happy because at least he was still beside me." Teardrops fell from Vivian's eyes. She was happiest when she got to see Gordan every day.

Luca nodded and thought to herself that Vivian was too humble.

However, she could not tell her.

Luca's gestures were telling Vivian that she was still listening to her. Hence, Vivian continued, "But I just found out that my happiness is built on Gordan's pain. He has been suffering all this time, being together with an ugly woman he isn't in love with. My happiness is his pain. So, I finally decided to give up on my happiness. That way, Gordan doesn't have to suffer anymore. I decided to let him go. Gordan should be happy now."

Luca was surprised. Vivian had decided to let him go?

Luca thought Gordan had done something to upset Vivian, and that was why she was hiding. She did not expect Vivian had let him go.

"You've decided to split up with Mr. Norton?" Luca asked carefully.

"It's a divorce. I've signed the divorce papers. And I'm guessing that he should've seen them by now and signed his name on them. He'll be able to hand in the divorce agreement soon. There'll be nothing left between us after this," said Vivian. Tears were constantly streaming down her face.

Vivian was really letting him go this time.

“But you're reluctant," said Luca.

Vivian smiled bitterly, and her tears could not stop falling. "It's hard for me. But I feel sorry for making suffer for so many years. Loving someone means making them happy and not letting them suffer. I realized that I've made a mistake. I want to make up for it. But the best compensation is to break up with him. That's what I did."

"But you're in pain." Luca looked at Vivian as she cried. Vivian was not considered pretty, and she looked funny when she was crying like a clown on stage.

However, Luca could feel how painful it was for her to leave someone she loved.

Luca was forced to leave Luke back then too. The pain lasted for three years. Even Nyla's birth could not bring much comfort to her heart.

It was only until she came back to him that the pain subsided. However, she only came here because she was assigned a mission to harm Luke. That was why Luca did not feel much happier even though Luke was right beside her.

There was only guilt and reluctance.

Luca knew exactly how Vivian felt now.

"I'll get through this. I don't want Ray to know that I miss Gordan even after making my decision. That's why I chose to stay in a hotel. I plan to go back home after a few days." Vivian took a deep breath. She should stop crying now.

Vivian had been crying all night. She should not be crying again.

As a grown-up, crying could never solve problems. Vivian had to learn to get over her feelings for Gordan.

"You didn't rest well last night, right?" Luca asked.

Vivian was slightly surprised. She thought Luca would comfort her or give her some suggestions after she told her everything, but she did not.

"Yes." Vivian nodded. Luca seemed to be different from the others.

"Have you eaten breakfast?" Luca asked again.

Vivian shook her head.

Luca looked at the telephone beside her. She picked it up and said, "Let me order breakfast for you."

"Huh?" Luca dialed the number and made the call before Vivian could come back to her senses and figure out what Luca was doing.

Luca looked at the menu and ordered breakfast.

Luca put down the phone after the call ended and said, "Taking a rest is all that matters now. You can heal the pain in your heart, but you can't hurt your body in the meantime. Otherwise, that's not called healing. You'd be damaging your body. Have your breakfast, then go to sleep."

Vivian listened to Luca and could not help but have a feeling.

Luca seemed to know very well what Vivian needed. novelbin

It seemed like the two of them had known each other for a long time. Luca did not comfort her and only reminded her what she needed to do.

After a while, room service delivered the breakfast here.

Vivian wanted to open the door, but Luca said, “Sit down. Let me do this."

Luca opened the door and took Vivian's breakfast from the waiter.

Then, she placed it on the coffee table and said, "Have some. I'll leave after you finish your breakfast."

Vivian nodded. The breakfast Luca ordered for her was high in nutritional value. She probably did not have to eat her lunch after having this.

Luca knew her well, indeed. Vivian might have hurt herself by going on a hunger strike if no one was supervising her.

Vivian had always thought that her heart would slowly go numb once she numbed her body.

However, it seemed like Luca did not think so.

Vivian took a few bites and remembered that Luca had just come out from the clinic just now. Hence, she asked, "You went to the clinic nearby just now?"

"Yes." Luca nodded.

"Are you feeling unwell?" Vivian asked with concern.

"Not really. I'm looking for a medicine. But the pharmacies around here don't seem to have them. I thought of going to a clinic to ask, then I ran into you," replied Luca.

"Is it hard to find the medicine you want?" Vivian asked with curiosity.

"I'm sure the hospital has it. But the hospital won't give it to me if I'm not seriously ill. It can't be bought with just money," answered Luca. She wondered if Vivian could get the medicine for her.

However, Luke would probably find out about it if she asked for Vivian's help.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1995-Vivian frowned. When she heard Luca say so, she thought it must be the kind of medicine that was hard to purchase.

There were two types of medicines that were hard to find in the market. One was prohibited drugs, while the other were medicines used to cure extraordinary diseases.

Vivian looked at Luca and thought she was probably not looking for the prohibited drugs.

Besides, she would have her own reason for needing this medicine...

“I can help," said Vivian. She knew people who could get such things because of Ray.

Luca shook her head and replied, "I can find them myself."

"You're worried that someone will find out about it, right? Don't worry. You've been listening to me all day today. I'm thankful. I'll help you look for the medicine, and I'll keep it a secret at the same time," said Vivian. Although she still felt down, she was doing much better now after pouring her feelings out.

Luca thought to herself that since Vivian had promised not to tell, then Luke would not be able to find out about it. novelbin

Besides, Vivian had much more connections than her in Russia.

That should be fine.

"Sorry to trouble you," Luca eventually agreed to have her help.

"It's nothing. What's the medicine you're looking for?" Vivian asked.

Luca decided to tell her about the antibiotics. "Amphotericin B. It's a type of antibiotic."

Vivian typed on her phone keyboard and handed the phone to Luca. "Is this the one?"

"Yes, it is," said Luca. She did not choose the medicine for external use as there were many types of it. It would be troublesome to find it.

Antibiotics could work well.

Luca had not asked for more of it from Johann as she was afraid that he would suspect her. That was why she only took one dosage from him and injected herself with it right away to resolve the issue.

Antibiotics worked better than medicine for external use.

"Then let's add each other as friends. I'll text you once I have it," said Vivian. She was not very friendly to Luca before this because of Bianca.

Vivian thought Luca was the mistress who had destroyed Luke and Bianca's relationship. That was why she stayed away from her.

However, Vivian changed her perception of Luca today.

It was not because Luca was willing to listen to her rant but Luca seemed to know her well. It could be seen from when she was listening to her and how she handled the matter after that.

Luca nodded, and the two of them exchanged their contact details.

Luca stood up and took a bottle of pills out of the bag when Vivian was almost done with her breakfast.

“What's this?" Vivian asked with curiosity.

"I'm a pharmaceutical researcher. These are the sleeping pills that I developed myself. I think you'll be needing them." Luca did not give Vivian too many of them. She was worried that Vivian would end her life by taking too many pills if she took things too hard.

Hence, Luca shook out five pills and wrapped them with a piece of tissue. Then, she handed them to Vivian. "Take one if you can't fall asleep. The effect is much better than the ones bought out there."

"Thank you. Why don't you give me the whole bottle, then?" Vivian smiled. She felt much better having Luca keep her company and chat with her to distract her attention.

"Although there aren't many side effects, the efficacy is still there. You're feeling upset now, and I'm worried that you might take things too hard." Luca put the bottle back into her bag. Her words were honest and straightforward. She did not act submissively, nor was she afraid that she would make Vivian feel worse.

"I won't. Don't worry, and thank you. I happen to need these now," said Vivian. She knew she could not fall asleep. The pills would definitely work on her.

Furthermore, even though Vivian was unfamiliar with Luca, judging from the relationship between Luke and Luca and Luke and Ray's friendship, Luca would never harm Vivian by giving her random pills.

"Take one before you sleep. The pills I gave you should be enough to last you for five days. That's all I can do for you now. Get some rest. Mr. Ray is worried about you. Go home when you feel much better," said Luca. She tried to remind her not to do anything silly and that Ray was still waiting for her at home.

Vivian felt a sting of melancholy surging in her heart. This time, it was not because of Gordon but Ray.

Luca's words reminded her of everything Ray had done for her all these years.

Ray had fought with Gordan again and again to convince him. He was worried and arranged for guards to make sure she was safe when she insisted on moving to the new villa together with Gordan.

He had done so much for her throughout these years.

He did everything for her sake and to ensure her happiness. However, Vivian was keeping everyone in the dark and hiding to heal the pain in her heart.

"Ray must be disappointed in me, his elder sister." Vivian laughed at herself. Ray had done so many things for her, while she only had eyes on Gordan.

She was selfish. She was way too selfish!

Luca shook her head and said, "He's not disappointed in you. And he's going to every hotel to search for you. Judging from Mr. Ray's speed, I'm guessing he'll be here very soon. I've been watching the news in Russia. It seems like the underworld organizations here aren't really peaceful. Follow Mr. Ray back home if he finds you. It's not safe here."

Luca knew the siblings' family well, and the stronghold of the Island of Despair was in Russia. She had been paying attention to the news here.

Luca paid even more attention to it when she knew she was going on a business trip to Russia with Luke.

Luca knew the underworld scene was in chaos now when she saw the news broadcasting about what they had done. Thus, she kindly reminded Vivian about it.

“Really? Ray didn't tell me anything about it. I didn't know..." Vivian was shocked.

"Anyway, make sure that you're safe. I'm not going to bother you now, and I should leave." Luca asked to leave when she saw that Vivian was much calmer now.

"Alright. Let me see you off," said Vivian.

"It's alright. I know how to go downstairs. Just take one pill and get some sleep. You'll feel much better when you wake up later," said Luca. Then, she left Vivian's room.

Luca walked to the elevator. A man in a black suit walked out of the elevator when it reached the floor.

Luca could sense danger in the air. She felt that this man was not an ordinary man.

Luca looked down and noticed the man was holding a room card. She reckoned that he had booked a room, and he probably had nothing to do with Vivian. Thus, she walked into the elevator calmly and pressed the button for the first floor.

Luca reached the first floor and walked out of the hotel.

Although Vivian had promised to help her to look for Amphotericin B, Luca still planned to walk around the area. She could not pin her hopes on Vivian alone.

After so many years, Luca was aware that the only person she could trust was Luke and herself.

Although others had claimed that they would help, Luca would still search for the medicine herself. Depending on them might not be able to solve the problem. There were times when she could not even rely on Luke. She could only depend on herself.

Luca found a clinic nearby. She hailed a cab and headed to the clinic.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1996-In the hotel.

Vivian was drinking water after she swallowed the pill Luca gave her. Then, she was getting ready to rest.

The doorbell rang when she had just sat on the bed.

Vivian frowned. Could Luca have left her belongings behind, so she came back for them?

Vivian headed to the door and remembered what Luca had told to her. The underworld scene in Russia was chaotic now.

Ray's group was formidable. A big tree would attract the woodman's ax. A few smaller groups were green with envy over their family's success. However, they always had bodyguards with them, and that was why they had been safe.

Vivian was also under Ray's protection. She never went out alone as two bodyguards would always follow her. Hence, nothing had ever happened to her.

Now, Vivian was here alone. Perhaps those groups had received the news and they were planning to do something bad to her.

Vivian was alerted. She did not open the door right away. Instead, she chose to take a glimpse through the peephole on the door. No one was out there.

That person must be standing at the side of the door where she could not see.

Vivian was pretty sure that the person out there was not an ordinary person. If it were Luca or an attendant, they would have stood somewhere where she could see them through the peephole.

That person deliberately stepped away from the visible range of the peephole.

“Who is it?" Vivian raised her voice and asked while locking the chained lock.

"I'm sorry. I got the wrong room." A man's voice came from outside the door.

Vivian was so frightened that she dared not make a noise. She kept a close eye on the situation outside the door while looking through the peephole.

Once she heard the man's voice, she saw a man wearing black pass by the door.

That should be the man who pressed the doorbell.

Then, Vivian did not see anything again or hear anything outside the door.

Vivian stood behind the door for five minutes. After she made sure there was no one outside the door, she slowly walked back to her bed.

Her tightened nerves relaxed at once. The effects of the medicine were working too.

Vivian shook her head and said in a low voice, "Luca's pill works really fast."

After that, she lay down on the bed and fell deeply asleep.

In another hotel room. novelbin

The man who had just pressed the doorbell outside Vivian's room walked to the end of the corridor.

Then, he swiped the card and entered the room.

He dialed Gordan's phone number before he sat down.

"You found her?" Gordan asked.

"Yes, Mr. Norton. She's staying in Ostin Hotel, Room 5034." The man took a box of cigarettes out of his pocket and took one.

"Are you sure?" Gordan asked. The hotel was located far away from Ray's domain.

Vivian truly did not want her to be found by them. Was that why she chose to stay in a hotel that far?

Was she not afraid that the other underworld organizations would discover her whereabouts and kidnap her to threaten Ray?

She was a stupid woman, indeed. She resorted to hiding somewhere, causing trouble for her family.

"I've confirmed it. Her name and her voice are the same," said the man as he put his phone aside. He pressed on the loudspeaker function. Then, he took his lighter out and lit his cigarette.

Vivian's voice was recognizable. Besides, the man had used professional voice recognition software to make a comparison. He was a hundred percent sure that the woman in that hotel room was Vivian.

"Alright. I got it. You won't take up any jobs related to this after accepting mine, right?" Gordan asked.

Gordan knew about Ray's matter.

However, this was the organization's affair. Although Gordan was Vivian's husband, the others knew Gordan was not part of Ray's organization.

That was why Ray had never helped Gordan solve his problems and difficulties.

After all, Gordan was a lone wolf.

"Of course," answered the man.

"Okay. I'll deposit the money into your bank account later." After that, Gordan hung up the call and deposited a huge amount of money into the man's bank account.

Even though Vivian was ugly, she had a high net worth because of her family and Ray.

However, Gordan did not feel bad about spending the money.

Finding Vivian was the only way to get true freedom.

Gordan sat on the chair while he smoked. He did not look for Vivian right away after knowing where she was.

He refused to look for her immediately. Vivian would get the wrong idea and think that Gordan was worried about her. If she eventually regretted asking for a divorce, he would not be able to make up for the losses.

Well, his divorce from Vivian had already been set in stone. He was not in a hurry now.

Gordan smoked and read the contents of the divorce agreement again. His face darkened at once.

Vivian.

Luca had been to a few clinics, yet she still could not get what she wanted. The clinics did not have the antibiotic as it was not widely used here.

Luca had no choice but to give up.

It soon got dark as it was winter. Luca could only hail a taxi and return to the hotel.

Luca realized Luke and Jason were still busy with their work when she returned to the suite.

She did not enter her room. Instead, she took off her coat and tied her hair up. Then, she walked into the kitchen.

Luca had already informed the reception to place some ingredients in the fridge before she went out this morning.

Luca opened the fridge and saw some fresh ingredients inside. She smiled and began to prepare dinner.

This time, she prepared Jason's portion too.

Luca had noticed that Jason seemed to be alright with having Russian food when they were at Gordan's place. She thought Jason must have chosen to have dinner at the restaurant because of Luke.

Now that Jason was here working, preparing his portion was only natural.

An hour later, Jason could smell the aroma of food in the air. He could not help but swallow his saliva.

Luca did not come back for lunch when it was noontime. Jason and Luke had ordered room service.

They were served Russian food. The food was not, bad but it was not especially good either. They were not used to the taste of the food here.

The fragrance of food that came from the kitchen...

Jason would love to have some, but Luke would probably give him the attitude if he asked to stay.

Jason was in a dilemma.

“Stay here for dinner," said Luke.

"Alright, Boss. Thank you, Boss." Jason was secretly rejoicing while trying to pretend to be calm.

Jason had been hoping that Luke would say this to him.

Although Jason had been eating Western food every day, Luca's home-cooked food was different.

Jason loved Sue, but between Sue's and Luca's food, he still thought that Luca's food was the best.

Luke saved the file and closed his laptop. "I'm not the one cooking."

Jason thought, 'But I'd still need your permission to stay.' It was just that he dared not say it to Luke.

The two of them left the room one after another.

At this moment, Luca happened to serve the dishes on the dining table. She greeted them when she saw them walking out of the room, "Mr. Crawford, Mr. Doyle, dinner is ready. Would you like to have dinner now?"

"Yes." Luke nodded. He maintained his cold attitude in front of Jason, but deep down inside him, he was craving Luca's home-cooked meal.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1997-Russian food tasted bland to them. Hence, Luca's home-cooked meal smelled so good that it made them hungry.

Jason was looking forward to it too.

Luca walked into the kitchen and took the plates and cutleries out. Then, she placed them in front of Luke and Jason. She said, “There aren't many ingredients and spices available here, so the food might not taste as good."

Spices such as oregano, rosemary, and thyme were not available in the hotel.

Luca tried using Russian ingredients to prepare Western food.

There were four dishes and soup on the table. Jason swallowed his saliva and suppressed the urge to immediately pick up his spoon to grab some of them.

After all, Luke was still here. He should not be in a rush.

Luca filled their bowls with soup for them. Just then, Luke's phone vibrated.

Luke picked up his phone, glanced at it, and said, "They've already decided on the meeting time."

"Boss, when is it?" Jason asked. They had been communicating with the office in the Capital for the whole day while they were busy with T Corporation's work matters.

After all, they had to delay their return dates. Hence, they did not waste their time while they were waiting here. Otherwise, their work would pile up. When they went back, they would have to work overtime.

"The day after tomorrow." Luke put his phone down.

"So, we'll have to wait until the day after tomorrow," Jason spoke hesitantly.

"Is there something you'd like to say?" Luke picked up his bowl and the spoon. Then, he took a sip of the soup. The taste of the soup was just like how it used to be. Perhaps it was because the soup did not need so many spices.

"Boss, I think the first party seems to be acting strange this time. They amended the requirements and postponed the meeting at the last minute. It seems like they're making things convenient for some companies," explained Jason. If Jason's analysis was correct, then their efforts that lasted for a few months would be in vain.

"It could be." Luke knew it well. However, he was not anxious about it even though they were doing such a thing.

"Boss, aren't you worried that—"

"They're not going to decide on the winner in advance," said Luke. He was not worried about it.

Luke could briefly understand what was going on with the company.

They were making things easier for certain companies, but they could not decide who would win the bid.

That was why they postponed the meeting.

Another reason why Luke could stay calm was that he had evidence.

Jason did not say anything when he listened to Luke's tone of voice. He knew Luke must know something about it.

Well, Luke was the boss. He had been in the business world for years. How could he not know what was going on?

Luca did not say a word. She sat down and began eating her dinner.

T Corporation was meant to fail in this competition, with or without an insider in that company.

Luke received a call from Ray after dinner.

Ray invited them over to his villa for a gathering.

Luke agreed to go over, then he looked at Luca and said, “Ray invited us to his villa to meet him.”

“Mr. Crawford, can I not go?” Luca asked. She reckoned Ray was still looking for Vivian. She was afraid that she could not help but blurt everything out if she followed them to Ray's house.

Luca had promised Vivian not to tell anyone.

However, she could not bear to see Vivian's family worrying about her. That was why it would be best for her not to go to Ray's house.

“Give me a reason.” Luke did not agree right away.

“I've been walking the whole day. I'm tired and would like to rest,” replied Luca.

"Alright." Luke turned to look at Jason, who was still drinking his soup. He asked, “Are you done?"

"Boss, I'm done." Jason put down his bowl immediately. He had been eating Russian food for each meal since he came here. Luca's home-cooked food was delicious.

Therefore, he was reluctant to waste any of it.

Luke threw the napkin on the table and said to Jason, "Wipe your mouth and get ready to depart."

"Alright, Boss." Jason picked up the napkin and wiped his mouth. Then, he stood up, picked up his phone, and informed the hotel to get the car ready.

Jason pushed Luke, who was in his wheelchair, out of the suite after the hotel told him that everything was ready.

There was a sudden silence in the big suite, and Luca was left alone.

Luca did not feel relaxed even though Luke was not there. What she had done was like a rock sitting on her chest, and it made it difficult for her to breathe.

A driver from the hotel was driving the car. He sent Luke and Jason to Ray's villa.

Ray had sent someone to wait for them at the entrance once he knew that Luke and Jason had departed from their hotel. The hotel's car had just come to a halt. The man at the entrance came forward politely and helped Luke get out of the car.

However, the man who was sent to welcome them was not professional enough. Hence, he made Luke look like he was in a fluster.

Luke was reminded of Luca when he saw the cast on his leg.

Luca was petite, but she was strong and steady when she was helping him up.

The man who came to welcome them was embarrassed when he looked at Luke, who was sitting in his wheelchair. "I'm sorry, Mr. Crawford. I didn't mean it."

Luke looked at the burly-looking man. He did not intend to hold him accountable. Instead, he asked, "Where's Mr. Ray?"

"Boss is already waiting in the house. Let me push you in," said the man.

Jason dared not to let the man push Luke's wheelchair. He almost made Luke fall when he was helping Luke to get out of the car.

"I'll do it," said Jason.

The man smiled embarrassedly and stood aside to make way for Jason. Then, he said, "I'm sorry. A tough guy like me has never done something like this before."

Jason pushed Luke's wheelchair and reminded him, "Please lead the way."

"Oh, okay. This way, please." The man walked in front of them as he led the way.

The three of them walked across the front yard and into the house.

"Boss is right inside. Please go ahead," the man said respectfully. novelbin

Jason nodded and pushed Luke into the house.

Ray sat on the sofa in the living room while waiting for them. He stood up immediately when he saw them coming in. "Luke, you're here."

Luke nodded.

Ray pushed Luke's wheelchair near the sofa.

Luke held the sofa's armrest and stood up. He hopped and sat on the sofa.

Then, Jason moved the wheelchair away.

"Hansen, bring Mr. Doyle to the lounge area," Ray commanded. He had something to discuss with Luke.

"Mr. Doyle, this way, please," said Hansen.

Jason waved his hand to Ray and left the living room together with Hansen.

Ray lifted his hand, and the others who were in the living room left too.

Luke looked at Ray's face. His chiseled face was full of distress.

"You haven't found Vivian yet?" Luke asked.

Ray grew even more distressed when Luke mentioned Vivian. Ray let out a sigh and shook his head.

"Perhaps I can help," said Luke.

“Do you know where Vivian is?" Ray looked at him with surprise. His men had been looking for Vivian at every hotel, but there was still no sign of her.

Ray had so many subordinates, and they had spent the whole day looking for her, yet they found nothing.

Luke had no power or subordinates in Russia. How could that be possible...

"My subordinate saw Vivian today. Perhaps you can head to Ostin Hotel to look for her," said Luke.

Gale was the one who told Luke that Vivian was staying at Ostin Hotel. Rain failed to track Luca down yesterday. Hence, Gale was responsible for following Luca today. According to what Gale told him, when Luca walked out of the clinic, she ran into Vivian.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1998-Gale had some influence in Russia and knew that Ray was in search of Vivian.

Hence, when he was reporting Luca's whereabouts, he reported about Vivian as well.

However, Luke did not immediately tell Ray about it. After all, it was Ray's family issue. Previously, Ray did not talk much about that incident, so Luke did not think that he should comment too much about it either.

Ray believed in what Luke said, and neither would Luke lie to Ray. Hence, Luke immediately made a call to his subordinates. He got them to head over to Ostin Hotel to look for Vivian.

"I didn't expect you to once again do me a big favor," Ray expressed his gratitude.

"My subordinate just happened to bump into her." Luke did not claim all the credit. If Ray really wanted to thank someone, it would have to be Luca.

If it were not for Luca being nearby, she would not have bumped into Vivian.

He recalled that even in the past, Bianca was never bothered about Vivian's ugly appearance. She even treated Vivian with warmth and gentleness.

"No matter what, you've done me a big favor. At the very least, I'm able to find her before any other underworld organization. If she had been kidnapped, the consequences would be awful. As a token of gratitude, this document is for you." Ray took out a document from the drawer of the coffee table and passed it to Luke.

He had received it in the afternoon.

Luke accepted it and opened it to read the content. He lifted his brows.

"I guess that this document would be much more useful to you," said Ray. He was rather relieved once he got to know Vivian's whereabouts.

"Indeed. Thanks a lot." Luke smirked. 'Perhaps he wanted to look for me just to pass this document to me. This document came to me just in time.'

"As long as I'm able to help you out." Ray inched forth a little and poured the tea that had just been brewed into two teacups. "Now that you can't drink wine, let's drink tea instead. Cheers."

Luke took the teacup that Ray passed to him and gently clinked it against Ray's teacup.

This time, Ray had done him a huge favor.

While Vivian was asleep, she vaguely heard that someone was ringing the doorbell. She slowly opened her eyes and realized that there was really someone ringing the doorbell.

She sat up and looked at the clock.

It was already nighttime.

After taking Luca's pill, she fell deep asleep like someone who had not slept for a very long time. If it were not for the doorbell, she might have even slept through the entire night.

'The pill's effect is much better than any sleeping pills sold on the market.'

The doorbell rang once again, and Vivian put her guard up. She slowly walked to the door. She took a glimpse through the peephole.

She was worried it might be the man from earlier today.

However, the person standing outside was wearing a hotel attendant's uniform. He was standing before the door and did not evade the peephole's visual range. Hence, Vivian could see him clearly.

"Who is it?" She did not open the door instantly. Even though the person outside was wearing an attendant's uniform, he might be an impostor.

"I'm from the housekeeping department of the hotel. I'm here to deliver your meal to you," the man at the door said.

"I didn't order any food." Vivian's guard was still up.

"It was your friend who ordered it on your behalf. We have the conversation record. Miss, please open the door," the attendant explained.

'Could it be Luca? Perhaps she left instructions to the receptionist before she left?'

Vivian kept looking through the peephole. Apart from the shadow of the hotel attendant, there were no other people. Hence, she opened the door.

She revealed half of her body and said to the attendant, "You can just hand me the food."

"Alright, Miss." The attendant pushed the meal cart to the front of the door when he noticed she was being alert.

Vivian placed one of her hands on the meal cart. When she noticed that the attendant was not intending to leave, she asked, "Anything else?"

"Miss, you have yet to return the meal cart from the time you ordered room service earlier today,” the attendant reminded.

Vivian was still determined not to let him into the room. "Once I'm done eating, I'll put it in the corridor."

After saying it, she pushed the meal cart into the room and locked the door.

The attendant looked at the man who was standing in the doorway.

The man made a gesture.

The attendant nodded and passed him the duplicated access card. Then, he left silently.

The man was not in a hurry to open the door and just leaned on the corridor. He looked at the time and placed both his hands before his chest, not taking a step further.

Vivian looked at the desserts in the meal cart, but she did not have any appetite. novelbin

She recalled what Luca said and sighed. Her emotions were much better after she slept. Even though she still missed Gordan and might even be sad, she felt much more comfortable.

'Perhaps I should eat and sleep on time. It's just a divorce. I'm only losing Gordan's insincere company. After all, I never once truly got the man.'

Time would always wash everything away, including her unwillingness to leave Gordan.

Vivian was thinking about it while eating the dessert.

When she was almost done eating, she felt even drowsier.

"Luca's pill is so strong..." Vivian said as she lay on the sofa.

After 15 minutes, Vivian's door was opened. The man in the corridor entered.

He looked at Vivian who had collapsed on the sofa and went over. Without speaking a word, he carried her and left the room.

After an hour, Vivian woke up and looked at the ceiling while blinking her eyes.

The next second, she noticed that she was not in the hotel. She was so terrified that she sat up. After looking at the familiar environment, she calmed down.

This was Ray's home, which was her house in the past. It was her old bedroom.

"You've woken up?" Ray pushed the door opened and came in. He had a dark expression when he saw Vivian.

Vivian noticed his expression was awful and felt guilty. Hence, she said, "You got someone to bring me back?"

"If it were another person, you wouldn't be here now." Looking at Vivian's sad expression, Ray could not bring himself to lecture her no matter how angry he was.

It was not her fault that she fell in love with the wrong person.

All of the fault laid on Gordan!

"I'm sorry, Ray. I didn't give it much thought. I just wanted to hide and heal," Vivian admitted her mistake. Without needing to ask, she knew that Ray already knew everything.

"It's very dangerous for you to be outside there alone. Besides, I told you back when you moved out that this place will always be your home. If you're not happy, you can come back here anytime you want. Home is the place where you heal, not the hotel." Ray did not mention a word about Gordan as she was currently very sad.

Mentioning that man would only make her sadder.

Vivian nodded. She was not mad at him for bringing her back home. She just felt aggrieved when she saw Ray.

Back then, Ray had warned her that Gordan was not suitable for her.

However, she was stubborn.

Even so, Ray did not blame it on her.

"My men have been searching for you the entire day and night. It took them great effort to find you at the hotel. They were afraid that you wouldn't want to come back, so they got someone else to drug you. This drug has side effects, so you have to drink lots of water to get the remnants out of your body,"

Ray reminded her. He placed the kettle and cup, that were placed on the dressing table by the maid, at the front of her bed.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 1999-Vivian was shocked. 'Ray got someone to look for me?'

She initially thought it was Luca who did not keep her promise and informed Ray that she was in Ostin Hotel.

"What's wrong?" Ray asked after seeing her shocked expression.

He did not tell her anything about it because Luke had requested not to tell her the truth. The truth was that it was Luke who informed Ray.

"Nothing. My things. Did you men help me bring them back?" Vivian asked.

"Yes. They brought back everything. They even helped you check out of your room. All of your things are over there." Ray lifted his chin toward the direction of the dressing table.

Vivian's purse was on the dressing table.

"I got it." Vivian got down from the bed, and when she got up, she felt her legs weaken. She frowned.

"You'll be fine after drinking lots of water," Ray said. That drug was initially meant to be used against enemies. If it was not because he was worried that Vivian might struggle and escape, he would not have asked them to use the drug.

Vivian pursed her lips and drank one large cup of water.

Ray was relieved when he noticed that she was not crying or causing havoc.

"It's getting late. You should get into bed.” Ray got up and looked at Vivian.

"Alright." Vivian nodded. She was still suffering from the effects of the drug. Not only did she feel a lack of strength but she also felt tired.

"If you don't sleep, you can go to the study beside to read the books that I bought. They're all the books that you like." After Ray said this, he left Vivian's bedroom.

Vivian looked around after the door was closed.

It had been a few years since she slept in this room, but the decorations in the room were still the same.

The furniture was brand new, but the paintings on the wall were still the same. It was clear that during her absence, Ray still got people to take care of her room.

'This has always been my home...'

Vivian felt a sense of sourness within her. She thought that this would be her childhood home. She never thought that she would one day return.

'Fortunately, nothing has changed.'

Ray did not get mad and changed her bedroom into a guest room just because she chose to be with Gordan. That bedroom was left here as if it was waiting for her return.

Perhaps Ray knew a long time ago that she would not stay outside for long.

'Fair enough. This useless determination, how long will it last? Three years? That's quite long.'

After Ray left Vivian's bedroom, he immediately returned to his study where Hansen was waiting for him.

"Sir, how's Ms. Vivian?" Hansen asked.

He was an orphan, and since young, he had stayed alongside Vivian and Ray's parents. He was also someone who had accompanied the siblings as they grew up. After getting to know that Vivian and

Gordan had divorced, he was mad.

He wanted to plot a scheme on Gordan but his idea was not approved by Ray.

"She's resting. Where's Gordan?" Ray asked.

"He's still in the villa. The maid in the villa said that he hasn't left the place the entire day. He's still living his life as usual, not bothered about Ms. Vivian's condition," Hansen answered angrily. 'Vivian has done so many things for Gordan. Now, she wants to divorce Gordan and even went missing. However, Gordan isn't bothered about it and didn't head out to look for Vivian or take any action at all. He's just hiding in the villa like a young master!'

"What the hell is he doing?" Ray frowned. Vivian had signed the divorce papers but Gordan kept hiding in the villa, not submitting the divorce agreement.

As long as Gordan sent in the divorce papers, his marriage with Vivian would be nullified.

Initially, Ray thought that Gordan would leave the villa on that day itself because Gordan hated Vivian. Divorce was his biggest wish, but at this moment, things did not seem to go the way he expected.

"Sir, why don't I go and look for Gordan?" Hansen clenched his fists. Even though Vivian was not goodlooking, he would not allow anyone to bully her!

Gordan had let Vivian down. It was only a matter of time before they sought revenge on him.

"No need. Just have the people in the villa keep an eye on him. Also, Vivian is still very sad now. Pass down my orders. Don't let any of the servants in the villa mention a word about Gordan or divorce," Ray ordered.

"Alright." Hansen had no choice but to agree after Ray stopped him. However, deep in his heart, he was not satisfied.

In Gordan's villa.

Gordan was lounging in a massage chair. He was thinking about heading over to Ostin Hotel the next day to look for Vivian to change the contents of the divorce papers.

He had prepared a huge amount of cash. 'If Vivian doesn't want the villa, then I'll give her the cash. I'll just take it as though I'm buying this villa from her.' novelbin

After all, the villa fulfilled his aesthetics. Even if he wanted to leave, he would feel unwilling to.

His phone rang, and Gordan answered it, "Is there an issue with the transaction?"

He asked.

The person on the other end of the call was the man who had helped him search for Vivian.

"No, Mr. Norton. I've already received your money. There's just one thing that I feel the need to inform you. Just take it as a reward for paying me on time," the man said.

"What is it?" Gordan squinted his eyes. 'Nothing good will happen if this man calls. Is it about Vivian? She must've realized that I got others to look for her, so she checked out and is hiding elsewhere now?'

"It's about your wife, Ms. Vivian. An hour ago, she was drugged and carried away from the hotel." When that man spoke, he said it with a calm tone as if the person carried away was just an item.

"Vivian has been kidnapped by others? Who's behind this?" Gordan was shocked and sat up.

"I'm not too sure, and I didn't follow up," the man said. He saw it because he felt it was a waste not to stay there for the night when the room had already been paid for. Hence, he decided to stay in the hotel for one night. He did not expect to see such a scene when he came out.

The reason he did not follow up on it was that his job was to look for people, not to save them.

Besides, the money given by Gordan was to look for Vivian. It did not cover the services that followed.

"Why didn't you follow up on the matter?" Gordan asked through gritted teeth. The massage chair was still turned on, and he switched it off irritably.

"Because this isn't a service that I offer. Besides, the person who took Vivian away looks like someone who we shouldn't offend. The money you gave is for me to look for Vivian, and I found her. It was just a coincidence that I saw that scene, so I gave you a call to inform you. Do you need me to search for her again?" the man asked.

Gordan understood that he wanted more money.

If he received more money, he would find Vivian. If he did not receive any money, the man would not continue with the work.

"Has your business been failing? Couldn't you have followed them and then ask me for money later on?' Gordan squinted his eyes coldly and revealed a ferocious aura.

"At that moment, the situation was a little desperate and I wasn't in a position to inform you. If you've decided to continue working together, I can immediately start my work and look for her."

"No thanks. The way your organization operates has let me down!" Gordan hung up the call. The thought of Vivian being kidnapped by someone he did not know made him so mad that he smashed his phone on the wall.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2000-Bang! The phone was smashed into two pieces.

The maid, who was standing at the door eavesdropping, was shocked. Due to the good soundproofing, she could only hear the sound of an item being smashed.

'Is Gordan mad?'

The maid quickly left and sent Ray a message.

On the other hand, it was late at night and Luca was sitting in front of the office table. She was handling the data sent by Rhett. Suddenly, she felt her body feeling uncomfortable.

Subconsciously, she touched her forehead and found it to be rather warm...

‘Did I catch a cold when I was outdoors today?'

Luca sighed and looked at the monitor of the computer. Suddenly, she felt as if the words in front of her were starting to become blurry.

'It seems like my body is giving a reaction.'

Luca looked at the time and thought of getting some rest since she still had some time to work on the following day.

'I should be fine after sleeping.'

The next day, Luke woke up. After taking his time to sit in the wheelchair, he then controlled the wheelchair out of the bedroom. He noticed that Luca was not in the living room.

'Has she gotten over her jet lag? Is that why she's still asleep at this hour?'

Luke looked at the clock, and indeed, it was still early. He controlled his wheelchair back to his bedroom as he was afraid that the wheels of the wheelchair would wake Luca.

After two hours, Luke maneuvered his wheelchair back to the living room. Luca was still not awake.

He looked at the watch on his wrist. 'Luca isn't a lazy person. She should be up by this hour.'

Luke maneuvered the wheelchair to the doorway and knocked on the door. "Luca, are you awake?"

There was no sound from inside the room.

Luke knocked on the door once again. "If you don't say anything, I'm going to push the door open and come in."

Again, there was no sound from inside the room. Luke had no choice but to push the door open and enter the room.

Luca was in bed without budging.

Luke frowned. 'Is she sound asleep? Something's not right here...'

He maneuvered the wheelchair and headed over, only to realize that Luca's face was very red.

Luke placed his hand over her forehead, and it was burning.

'Luca's sick!'

Luke took out his phone and gave Jason a call, "Go get help and come here."

Jason heard it and quickly hung up the call. After making an emergency call, he called the hotel staff and rushed upstairs.

He thought Luke had fallen. After stepping into the suite, he realized Luca had fallen sick.

Looking at Luca's red face, Jason said, "Sir, I've made an emergency call. The hospital is not that far from here. The ambulance should be here anytime soon."

"It should get here as soon as possible." Luke bit his lip. Watching Luca's sickly appearance made him feel a pinch in his heart.

He was not willing to see her being in such discomfort. novelbin

"Yes, sir." Jason was helpless. They were not in their country, so he was unable to urge others to help out.

After 15 minutes, the paramedics arrived at the hotel. After conducting a simple examination, they concluded that Luca had passed out due to a high fever. Hence, they quickly got their men to carry her into the ambulance and rushed her to the hospital.

Luke followed them into the ambulance and arrived at the hospital. He saw the doctors and nurses pushing Luca into the emergency room. After a hectic period, a doctor came out with a serious look and asked, "Who's the patient's family?"

"I am." Luke nodded.

"Great. There are a few things that I'd like to clarify. Right now, things are not looking too good for the patient. She has a high fever. Do you know when she started having the fever?" the doctor asked.

Luke frowned. Last night, Luca was still alright when he returned from Ray's villa.

"I'm not too sure when it happened exactly but she was still alright before midnight last night.”

He came back to the hotel at 11 o'clock, and after Luca helped him brush his teeth and bathe, it was already 12 o'clock.

At that time, her body temperature was still normal. Luke could be sure of this.

"You don't even know how long she's had her fever?” The doctor was scribbling on the medical board.

"I'm not too sure." Luke's tone sounded rather defeated. He wished he knew more details, but Luca always pulled a distance between them.

"How did the injury on the patient's waist happen? She was treated by a doctor previously. Do you know what antibiotics the doctor prescribed her? If you don't, perhaps you can provide us with the contact details of that doctor. We'll ask that doctor ourselves," the doctor said.

"There's a wound on her waist?" Luke could not remain composed now. ‘When did Luca get injured?'

The doctor lifted his brows and looked at Luke. "You don't know about it?"

"I..." Luke stuttered.

"How can you not know about such a serious matter? Are you really her family?" The doctor looked at the man before him with a suspicious gleam. 'Even though he's sitting in a wheelchair, he has an extraordinary aura. He doesn't look like a liar.'

"We live together," Luke said. At the very least, he did not lie about that. They were indeed staying together.

"Her injury is pretty serious. She got a few stitches too. Besides, it's already inflamed. Judging from the degree of injury, it doesn't seem like a new wound. It might have been there for quite a few days. Do you really not know any of this?" the doctor asked once again.

"No idea." Luke did not know what he could do now. He could only answer the doctor saying he was clueless in fluent Russian.

He had no idea about Luca's injury and was clueless about when it occurred or where she received treatment.

He did not know any of that.

The doctor pursed his lips and said, "Right now, we can only prescribe her the usual treatment plan— antibiotics and antipyretic. The inflammation is serious. It might be due to germs or fungi. We have to wait for the laboratory report before deciding on the next course of treatment."

"You guys must rescue her," Luke ordered.

"We'll do our best," said the doctor and he turned around to return to the ward.

Luke took out his phone and called Johann.

Johann did not pick up the call.

He had no choice but to send him a message: [Do you know about the wound on Luca's waist? When did it happen?]

Luke kept staring at the screen of his phone until Jason came over. However, the doctor had yet to come out.

"Sir, what situation is Dr. Craw in now?" Jason asked. He had to take a cab to the hospital from the hotel because the ambulance was full.

"She's injured, and the wound is inflamed." Luke was waiting for Johann's reply, but he did not have much hope.

If Johann knew about Luca's wound, he would have hinted it at Luke even if he had promised Luca not to say anything.

After some time, Johann replied: [Luca is injured? When did it happen?]

'Indeed, he has no idea about it.'

After half an hour, the doctor stepped out and explained the situation to Luke, "We've given the usual antibiotics to the patient and some antipyretics. We've sent a sample to the pathology lab. Right now, we have to wait for the results before moving to the next stage of treatment. I suggest the patient be admitted for now because her fever hasn't subsided."
