Ch. 2321..2330

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2321-Luca smiled and said in a soft voice, “It was you who moved on. There's no need to thank me."

“No, I still have to thank you because I'll need your help after this. I have no friends in A City. So, there are many things that I might need to trouble you and Mr. Crawford with," replied Vivian. She had already told Ray to keep it low-key about her going there to further her studies this time.

Vivian did not want her classmates to know that her family donated the library. Also, she did not want a bodyguard to follow her around as it would make her classmates find out about her family background.

Ray disagreed with her at first, and he insisted on keeping a few bodyguards beside her. Then, he would also arrange for two maids to take care of her there.

It took a lot of effort for Vivian to convince him.

The reason why she wanted to go to A City was to experience life in a place without her family's influence. She wanted to start a new life in a new country.

Besides, Luke was staying in A City. He was a trusted friend of Ray's. Thus, Vivian eventually managed to convince Ray.

“It's nothing. Just tell me if you need anything in the future. I'll be willing to help you as long as I'm in A City," replied Luca.

Vivian was sensitive enough to get the hint in her words. “Will you be leaving A City?"

Luca was startled for a moment. She did not expect that she would spill the beans.

Vivian's voice was so gentle that Luca was unconsciously letting her guard down. It made her feel like she was talking to a psychiatrist, and she accidentally revealed the deepest secret that she had been keeping at the bottom of her heart.

“I mean, I'll be away for business trips occasionally. I won't always be in A City. But don't worry, I'd be glad to help you as long as I'm here," Luca quickly explained.

Vivian chuckled and replied, “Okay, then I'll leave you to your work. I'll see you on New Year's."

“See you." Luca let out a sigh of relief after the call ended.

She almost told Vivian her deepest secret that was kept in her heart...

Vivian might tell Luke about it if she found out that Luca would be leaving. She had to stay alert when she talked to her in the future.

Luca looked down and picked up her phone again. New Year's was just around the corner. She promised Luke that she would go shopping with him for the new year. Also, she reckoned that she would be busy handling the kids' matters like how things used to be in the previous years.

Therefore, she had to take care of everything at hand.

Luca sent a message to Queenie, asking about Leia's situation.

Queenie called her after a while. “Luca, I saw your message. I thought I should give you a call to explain it to you."

"Okay, Mrs. Norman. I'm listening," Luca looked down and turned on the phone's speaker.

Although Queenie sounded like Leia was seriously ill, she knew that Luke would certainly know about it if she was really in a bad condition.

Besides, Johann would have told her too.

Hence, Luca was not anxious about it. She read the document and listened to Queenie talking on the phone at the same time.

"The doctor said that Leia can be discharged from the hospital after some time. Her vital signs are fine after the surgery as they're improving. But her vitals have stopped improving in the past two days. Although Dr. Park told me that it's normal and Leia's body needs a long time to recover as there's no way she can recover so quickly, I'm still worried about her. You know she doesn't have much patience as well, so if she's not recovering fast enough, I'm worried that Leia will get anxious and her health will be affected too," said Queenie even though she thought troubling Luca again was not a good idea.

Leia was the only child she left now. She had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask for Luca's help.

Luca paused for a moment and replied in a soft voice, "Ms. Norman's body has to recover slowly. Her body can't be fully recovered in such a short time. She'll be fine as long as she takes her medicine and goes for her injections."

"Dr. Park said so too, but Leia hates it. There's nothing I can do now. Luca, you do have a way to make her body recover faster, right?" Queenie asked. She had heard that herbal medicine was good for the body and was not as toxic as synthetic drugs.

Although the naturopathic doctors in the hospital were professionals, Queenie had witnessed Luca's ability herself. Luca was still the one she trusted the most.

"Yes. I'll go over tonight," Luca agreed to help her.

If she did not go to the hospital tonight, she would be too busy to go in the next few days. Hence, she planned to solve Leia's problem when she had the time to do so.

After all, she had promised Queenie that she would help.

"Okay. I'll be waiting for you at the hospital tonight," Queenie was delighted when she heard Luca was coming over.

"You don't have to be there. I'm just going there to check her pulse and prescribe the medicine for her. It'll be fine as long as the doctor's there," replied Luca. She was not a doctor, so there was no way she could ask the hospital to prescribe the medicine.

"Sure. I'll inform the doctor," Queenie claimed that she would get the doctor, but she secretly decided to wait for Luca.

After all, it had been some time since she saw Luca, and she missed her.

Queenie seemed to have a very keen interest in Luca. She was always glad to see her, and she would also miss her when they had not seen each other for a while. It was as though she was thinking of her biological daughter.

It was like before she knew Bianca. She had the same feeling for Bianca too.

Luca continued with her work after she ended the call.

Luca had been working until it was time to get off work. She got into Warren's car and returned to the villa, then she helped Aunt Neile to prepare dinner.

Luca initially thought that Luke would stay in the office and work overtime, but when she heard the kids calling Luke in the living room, she was startled for a moment. Luke did not work overtime today.

After they finished preparing dinner, Luca and Aunt Neile served the dinner on the table. Luke brought the kids along with him to the dining room.

“Time for dinner," Luca nodded when she saw Luke and shifted her gaze. She picked up the ladle as she was about to fill the bowls with soup for Luke and the kids.

After Aunt Neile served the last dish, she took the ladle that Luca was holding in her hands and said, "Ms. Craw, leave it to me. Please take a seat."

"Thank you," Luca sat beside Luke.

Tommy smiled, looked at her, and said, "Ms. Luca, you made buffalo wings today!"

"Yes. A greedy little cat was talking in his sleep, saying that he was craving buffalo wings after he fell asleep last night," Luca teased Tommy. After Tommy fell asleep while leaning on Lanie in the backseat last night, he was mumbling in his sleep. Everyone in the car heard him.

Tommy's face reddened as he replied, "Ms. Luca, the greedy little cat you're talking about, is it me—"

"Ms. Luca is talking about you. Tommy, you fell asleep when we were on our way home, and you mumbled about buffalo wings in your sleep five times," Rainie smiled and made fun of her younger brother.

"So that's how it happened. I was wondering why there were buffalo wings before I even told Ms. Luca and Aunt Neile I was craving them," Tommy gently scratched his face with his fingers.

"Have some more," Luca helped Tommy with the buffalo wings and placed them on his plate, then she helped Lanie and Rainie with the food.

The buffalo wings were not deep fried with flour like how people did it out there. She baked the buffalo wings in the oven. Luca mentioned it to Aunt Neile this morning and told her to marinate them according to her recipe with special seasonings. Then, she would come back to bake them in the evening. Hence, the buffalo wings tasted just as good as the ones they ate outside.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2322-Tommy picked up the buffalo wings and took a bite. Then, he made a thumbs-up gesture and complimented, "Yummy."

“Have some more if they taste good,” Luca helped Tommy with another one. Then, she saw Luke pick up his cutleries, but he had yet to help himself with the food. She said, "Mr. Crawford, try some?"

"Sure." Luke had never been interested in the kids' favorite dishes, but since Luca was the one who cooked them...

Luke lifted his fork and helped himself with one buffalo wing. Then, he placed it on his plate and slowly tasted it.

Luca looked away and helped herself with a piece of fish filet. She slowly took a bite and began eating. She ate and said at the same time, "I'm going to the hospital later."

"Leia?" Luke immediately got it right.

"Yes. I'm going to be busy for the next few days, so I'd like to see if I can prescribe medicine for her while I have the time to do so today," replied Luca.

"Let me send you there." Luke offered her a ride.

Luca turned to look at him and hesitated for a few seconds. She eventually agreed with it and said, "Okay..."

"Don't worry. I'm not going to go upstairs," added Luke.

"Alright.." Luca nodded. It would be fine if Luke did not go upstairs.

If Leia saw Luke, her vital signs might be affected as she was afraid of him.

Tommy, who was sitting beside them, heard their conversation. He tilted his head, stopped eating, and pondered.

Luca noticed that and asked, "What's wrong? Do the buffalo wings taste bad?"

Tommy shook his head, pouted, and said, "The buffalo wings you prepared are the best. I was wondering if Aunt Leia has a doctor? Why does she need you to take care of her if she already has a doctor?"

"I'm not taking care of her. I'm only going there to visit her," Luca corrected him. She knew the kids did not like Leia, but there were hardly any hardships and struggles in a child's world.

That was why Tommy could not understand.

"But Aunt Leia is scary," said Tommy. They all knew Luca's true identity, and that was why they thought she should not be going.

Although Luke and Old Master Crawford had never told them about Leia having something to do with their mother being kidnapped, they eventually found out about it when the maids were talking about it.

Luca stroked Tommy's head and said, "I've asked Aunt Neile to stay longer to look after you today. Be good, okay?"

"Okay, Ms. Luca. I'll listen to Aunt Neile," Tommy had no choice but nod and say, "Besides, Lanie will be keeping an eye on me too."

Other than getting scolded by Luke, Tommy was afraid of Lanie lecturing him too.

Although Lanie was only a few years older than him, he had a knack for lecturing him. He could make Tommy unable to refute him and apologize for his mistakes.

Luca helped Tommy with another buffalo wing while listening to him, "Have some more."

"Thank you, Ms. Luca," Tommy smiled sweetly at her, then lowered his head to continue eating his dinner.

After dinner, Luke drove Luca to the hospital to prevent her from coming home late.

In the hospital.

Leia kept glancing at the time and staring at the door after she finished eating the oats delivered by the maid.

Queenie comforted her in a soft voice when she saw Leia was so anxious. "Leia, Luca told me that she'll be here. Don't worry."

"How can I not be anxious? It took a few days to see the effects when you asked her to come here to nurse my health. I don't think she sincerely wants to help me. Perhaps she won't even come today," Leia mumbled. She could not help but feel annoyed when no one was coming in through the door.

Queenie shook her head and heaved a sigh. "She was that day? She didn't come because she was worried that she might spread the virus to you. Don't worry. She'll definitely come here."

"If she's coming, then why isn't she here yet? Mom, why are you always speaking up for others?" Leia frowned unhappily.

As her mother, she was always speaking up for people who were not related to her!

Queenie thought that the reason why Leia was on edge was that her health had not fully recovered. After all, the nurse told her that a patient's emotions were usually unstable.

"Luca has her own job. She can only come to the hospital after she gets off work and has her dinner. Don't be anxious. Take the pills." Queenie glanced at the time. Half an hour had passed after Leia took the oats. It was time for her to eat her medicine. Hence, she handed the pills and the glass of water that had been left to cool down to her.

Leia looked at the pills and frowned. "The pills taste bitter."

"You have to take these. Try to get used to synthetic drugs. Herbal medicine tastes much more bitter than these. Come on. Listen to the doctor's advice," Queenie convinced her patiently. She would keep an eye on Leia every time she had to take her medicine as she was afraid that Leia would refuse to take them.

Leia finally had her liver transplant. If she did not take her medicine, everything would have been in vain. All the suffering she went through would be for nothing too.

Leia bit the bullet and swallowed the pills.

Although she always complained, she knew the pills were the only thing that could save her life.

Leia would not allow the pain she had gone through to be in vain. She wanted to stay alive, and she wanted those who hurt her dead.

That included Luke Crawford...

Leia thought to herself that how deeply she was in love with Luke back then, that was how much she hated him now.

10 minutes later, Luca had still yet to show up.

Leia could not help but urge, “Mom, give her a call and ask her if she's unwilling to nurse my health."

“Perhaps she got delayed. We're not in a rush. We still have two hours before the visiting hours are over, right?" Queenie comforted her in a soft voice. They were already asking for Luca's help. How could she call her to ask if she was coming?

“She only promised you to help just because she wants to leave a good impression on you," Leia gritted her teeth and glanced at the phone beside her.

“Luca promised to come. She'll be here," replied Queenie. Although she was not very close to Luca, she did not think Luca was such an unreliable person.

She would definitely do something once she promised to.

Leia sneered. Queenie kept on calling Luca by her name, sounding so intimate. Those who did not know would think that Luca was her daughter.

The door was pushed open when Leia was about to say something. Luca stepped into the ward with a thick, warm coat on her.

“Mrs. Norman, I'm sorry I came late," said Luca. Luke's car broke down while they were on their way here. They could not start the car engine, so they had no choice but to wait in the car for Warren to drive another car over.

After Warren drove the car over, Luke drove it to the hospital and asked Warren to stay there and wait for the tow truck to come.

Then, they hurried to the hospital.

Leia said in an enigmatic manner with a gloomy expression on her face, “You're early. The nurse wouldn't have let you in if you were another hour late."

Luca pursed her lips. She walked to the hospital bed and took her medical records out to read.

Queenie looked at Leia and shook her head to stop her from talking nonsense.

Leia was even more annoyed and said, “Why aren't you saying anything? If you were late for another hour, you wouldn't have to nurse my health anymore. You would've come, but you wouldn't be allowed to come in after the visiting hours. You'd still be considered to have kept your promise, right?"

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2323-Luca thought of putting up with Leia and letting her say anything she wanted.

However, she could no longer stand it.

Luca put the medical records back to where they were. She stared at Leia with a cold expression on her face, “Ms. Norman, I came late, but I didn't expect the car would break down while I was on my way here. If you think I'm wasting your time, I shall leave."

Queenie frowned. She quickly grabbed Luca's hand and said, "Luca, don't mind her. Leia has a bad temper..."

Luca turned to glance at Queenie, then looked at Leia again.

What she said just now managed to shut Leia's mouth, but Leia was unconvinced. She turned her face away, refusing to look at Luca.

"I think Ms. Norman is doing well. Just follow the hospital's instructions for the post-op procedures. Mrs. Norman, I'm sorry. There's nothing I can do to help her. Even if I can, she has a problem with me. If I were to prescribe medicine for her, she'll secretly throw the medicine away just like she did the last time. It's getting late. I'm not going to stay here and bother Ms. Norman anymore," Luca pulled her hand back. She was about to leave the ward.

"Luca, please don't mind her words.." Queenie felt irritated.

Queenie did not think Luca was wrong. She thought it was Leia's fault.

Even if Luca's car did not break down and she came here late on purpose, Leia should not have said something like that.

"Mrs. Norman, Ms. Norman is an adult. If she's unwilling to, I'd better not stay here and get in her hair," Luca pushed the door open and left after that.

Leia was left dumbfounded as she watched Luca leave. She could not believe that Luca left like that just to express her dissatisfaction with her.

Luca was supposed to show respect to Queenie, right?

Leia turned around and looked at Queenie who was upset and annoyed.

"Leia, why did you say those things to her? I was finally able to ask Luca to come here and nurse your health. But you pissed her off without thinking about the situation. You were rude to her. Is that how I taught you?" Queenie could no longer suppress her emotions and blamed Leia for stepping over the line.

Leia had driven Luca away this time. It would be difficult for Queenie to ask Luca to come over and nurse Leia's health the next time.

Although Leia's vital signs were stable now, who would know what would happen next?

Leia's attending physician and Johann told her that she was stable for the time being, but there would be changes in the future depending on her lifestyle and habits. That was why she would have to come back for follow-ups and nurse her health.

“It's her honor to come here and nurse me. Mom, you'd better get it right. She's the one who's acting like a diva." Leia refused to take responsibility for her misbehavior.

"Leia, how can you say that? You're getting more and more unreasonable," Queenie was disappointed. She felt sorry for Luca too.

"Hah, you think Luca's the best. Let me tell you, things aren't as simple as they seem. Perhaps she's in a hurry to go back to get onto Luke's bed!" Leia mocked. Her heartbeat was slightly faster as she was annoyed.

Queenie noticed the vital signs on the monitor and calmed herself down a little. She dared not to refute her anymore. "Fine. Stop talking nonsense. It's getting late. Get some rest."

"I'm telling the truth, but you refuse to believe me. Everyone knows about it except for you and Bianca," Leia yelled at her.

"Leia!" Queenie glowered at her. "What's wrong with you?"

"You're my mother, not Luca's. You don't have to speak up for her." Leia jeered, "Others will think that Luca's your illegitimate daughter."

Slap! A loud slap sounded after Leia finished talking.

Queenie's palm fell right on Leia's face.

The loud, ringing slapping sound in her ears made Queenie come back to her senses. She looked at Leia, whose face was turned away. Her cheek was burning red. Queenie did not expect that she would lose control and slap Leia in her face.

Queenie took a step back. She seldom scolded and hit Leia since she was young as she could not bear to do so.

However, what Leia said today was way too ridiculous. She secretly thought that Luca did not deserve to be judged like this, and that was why she slapped Leia.

The slap turned Leia's face away. She could feel the burning sensation on her cheek, then she sneered and looked at Queenie resentfully.

How dare Queenie slap her for someone else...

"Get out of here!" Leia pointed at the door.

Queenie looked at Leia for a while with a complicated expression on her face. She spoke slowly, "Leia —"

"I never want to see you again!" There was hatred in Leia's eyes. She was not treating Queenie as her mother.

Queenie had no choice but to leave when she saw that Leia's heartbeat and blood pressure were increasing. If she stayed here any longer, Leia's vital signs would take a drastic turn.

Leia took a few deep breaths after Queenie left.

She picked up the phone she left on the bedside table and looked at the phone screen with a gloomy face.

It was a spare phone. She had left it on video call after dinner.

"Why did you piss her off?" Matysh, who was on the other end of the video, was dissatisfied. After knowing that Luca would be going to the hospital to nurse Leia's health, he requested a video call just to see Luca and satisfy his longing for her.

However, before Matysh could see her long enough, Leia pissed her off by saying harsh things to her.

Although he had no idea what they were talking about, he could see that Luca was mad from the expression on her face.

“She gave me an attitude, so why couldn't I do that too?” Leia rolled her eyes. Luca was just a woman. Why was she so popular?

Luke defended her, Queenie let her have her way, and even Matysh wanted her.

She was merely a woman.

“Leia, she's not going to come here again if you behave like that.” Mandy, who was beside Matysh, spoke in English.

Matysh could not understand what she was talking about, but Leia could. How could she ask for Luca's help if she offended her and pissed Queenie off?

If she could not ask Luca to come over, that would mean Leia would not be able to help Matysh.

Leia frowned. What Mandy said made her panic.

If Luca was truly mad at her and refused to come again, the chances of getting Luca alone would be fewer.

Matysh listened to the two of them speaking in a language he could not understand, then he said unhappily, "You're speaking English."

Leia suppressed the nervous feeling that was churning in her stomach. She needed Matysh's money. That was why she could not let him notice that. "Don't worry. What are you afraid of? She'll come back when you need her. We'll work together at that time and kidnap her."

"Are you sure about that?" Mandy frowned. She had watched everything that happened just now. What Leia said earlier was indeed out of line.

It was not Luca's obligation to come to the hospital to nurse her health. She did it out of kindness, but Leia behaved condescendingly and disapproved of her.

Luca was neither her maid nor her doctor. She did not even charge her...

Luca only came here for the sake of Leia's mother.

Everything that Leia did and every word she said was absurd.

"I have faith. Don't worry. After New Year's, your dreams will come true, Mr. Matysh. You'll get what you want." Leia assured Matysh, who was on the other end of the call.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2324-Matysh looked at Leia with confusion, refusing to believe what she said.

Could someone who could not even stop themselves from being mean to Luca be able to help him?

Mandy had been staying by Matysh's side for some time now, and she knew Matysh did not trust Leia.

Mandy was the one who recommended Leia to carry out the mission, so she said, “Mr. Matysh, if Leia says she can do it, she'll certainly succeed. I believe in her."

Matysh stared at Mandy for a few seconds and shifted his gaze back to his phone. At last, he nodded and said, "Fine. I'll trust you this time."

"Don't worry. I won't take your money if I fail. You have nothing to lose either. Enjoy your holiday in the villa," replied Leia. The hatred she felt for Luca in her heart was getting stronger. It was like a rising yeasted dough in a high-temperature oven.

Leia put her phone aside after she ended the video call. Her eyes darkened like a deep bottomless hole.

On the other hand.

Luca had already dealt with her emotions after she left the ward. She was on her way back to the parking lot.

Luca had only got into the car after she thought there was nothing wrong with her.

"That fast?" Luke glanced at the time. It only took 20 minutes for Luca to get it done.

He secretly made some rough calculations. It would take 15 minutes for one to head to Leia's ward and come back here.

"There's nothing much. Ms. Norman doesn't need my help, so I came back," Luca replied with a smile on her face. She did not tell Luke those awful things she heard in the ward.

Luke frowned.

"Mr. Crawford, let's go home. That way, Aunt Neile can go home earlier too," said Luca. She felt much better with the car heater warming her up.

"What did Leia say?" Luke did not intend to leave yet. He turned around and stared at her.

"Nothing..." Luca did not want to say anything, and she never thought of telling anyone about it either.

After all, if Luke truly stood up for her, Leia would be in trouble. That would only make Queenie worried.

"Luca, I can go upstairs and ask if you don't tell me." Luke insisted on knowing what Leia had said to her.

Although Luca looked fine, she must have heard something terrible from Leia.

Luke was protective of the people he loved. Although Luca had not revealed her true identity, he could not bear to see her being wronged.

“Mr. Crawford..." Luca hesitated as she knew he was being serious.

Leia's condition might seem stable now, but Luca had noticed that Leia's heartbeat and blood pressure changed when her emotions surged earlier.

If Luke went upstairs now, Leia might be sent into the emergency room if she was frightened out of her wits upon seeing Luke.

Luca had no choice but to tell him how Leia took her for granted and the mean and harsh words she said to her.

"Is that everything she said?" Luke asked.

Luca thought Luke would think that she was making a big deal out of it. She had no choice but to nod and say, "She's always been like that. I guess things just aren't going well for me today. That's why I'm in a bad mood. I left right after I tossed her medical records aside. Now that I'm recalling it, I shouldn't have done that. After all, I had promised Mrs. Norman, but I didn't keep my promise."

"You did do something wrong." Luke looked at her with his fiery eyes, seemingly blaming her for everything she did.

Luca's heart sank. Sure enough.

No one would side with her when she was not Bianca. Even if she was still Bianca, Luke, who was in front of her, and Queenie would not favor her because her looks and identity had changed.

"You shouldn't have helped her to nurse her health in the first place. Let's go home. Don't ever mind Leia's business again," said Luke. Then, he started the car engine.

Luca looked at Luke in surprise. Luke was defending her.

A heart-touching feeling aroused in her chest.

She could sense that Luke was defending her in his tone. Luca looked down, her voice slightly trembling as she was moved by Luke's words. "Okay. Let's go home."

Luke drove back to the villa.

Everything went smoothly when they were on their way back. It was late, and there were hardly any cars on the road. The car did not break down either. The kids were already asleep when they returned to the villa.

Aunt Neile saw them come back. It was late at night, and she had not returned home yet, so she headed to the maid's room to rest.

"Go upstairs to clean yourself up first," said Luke. He took Luca's handbag to hang it on the stand hanger.

Luca nodded and made her way up the stairs. She walked into her bedroom, planning to clean herself up and go to sleep.

Luca took her phone out of her pocket. She saw Queenie's message when she was about to put her phone on the dressing table.

She had switched it to night mode. Hence, the phone would not ring no matter if it was a message unless someone made a phone call.

Luca unlocked her phone screen and glanced at her phone.

The message Queenie sent her was about asking her to go easy on Leia.

Luca let out a sigh. Perhaps Queenie did not understand that it was Leia who was putting her in a difficult position. Otherwise, something like that would not have happened today.

However, Luca did not blame Queenie for defending Leia.

It was because Leia was her daughter, while she was merely a stranger to her now.

Luca pondered for a moment. She could not help but feel jealous of Leia. It was not because of some other reasons. It was only because Leia had such a good mother like Queenie.

It was not easy for her to acknowledge Queenie as her mother, but things had become like this just because of Leia...

Luca did not even dare to acknowledge Queenie.

She thought about it and replied to Queenie in a magnanimous manner: [It's okay. It's getting late. Rest earlier, Mrs. Norman.]

Luca put down her phone after she successfully sent the message.

She brought her pajamas into the bathroom.

Meanwhile, Luke, who was in the room opposite Luca's bedroom, called Johann.

“Why are you calling me at this hour?" Johann answered his call. He was flabbergasted. Did Luke ever look at the time before he made a call?

Luke could hear the drowsiness in Johann's voice, but he was not planning to let him sleep. He said, "I need you to do me a favor."

"Can't you tell me tomorrow if it's not urgent." Johann closed his eyes. All he wanted to do now was to sleep.

"It's urgent." Luke was stubborn, and he insisted on telling him today.

Johann opened his eyes as he thought Luke really had something urgent to tell him. "I'm awake. Tell me."

"Dexter is getting discharged tomorrow, right?" Luke asked.

"Yes. Did you call just because of this.." Johann was rendered speechless.

"No. The person Leia doesn't want to see the most is Dexter. Please make an arrangement and let her have a chance to meet him," said Luke. He would never let anyone who put Luca in a difficult position get away with it.

"Do you know what will happen to Leia if she sees Dexter?" Johann frowned. Leia detested her biological father, Dexter. It seemed like Luke wanted her to meet the person she hated the most.

That would trigger Leia.

Previously, Luke had even reminded him not to let Dexter visit Leia to prevent stirring up her emotions and causing the surgery to fail.

However, now.

What did Leia do to offend Luke again?

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2325-Although Luke was not a doctor, he knew Leia could not be triggered now.

"Are you sure you want to do that?" Johann confirmed with him and wondered what Leia did to get herself into trouble. Otherwise, Luke could not be bothered to deal with her.

"Leia has been living too comfortably since she came back," said Luke. Since Leia liked to take advantage of the fact that she was one of the Norman family members and messed with the others until even the good-tempered Luca could not stand her harsh words, then Luke should remind her of her standing.

"..." Johann was flabbergasted.

Leia had hardly spent her days comfortably ever since she returned here...

She was always in pain, tortured by sickness. She was on the verge of death twice. Hence, it was nothing like what Luke said.

Still, if he thought Leia was living comfortably, then Leia had no choice but to resign herself to fate.

"Okay. I'll arrange for it," Johann promised him. It was not a big deal for him either.

"Don't make it too obvious," Luke added. He could not let Queenie and Jack find out about what he did.

"I know what to do. Don't worry," replied Johann. He was not a fool. There was an easy way to make such arrangements, but Leia and the others would find out about it.

Therefore, he had to come up with a plan.

Johann smiled. There was always a way to do it, right?

Luke knew Johann had something in his mind when he heard him say so. He immediately hung up the phone without saying a word.

Johann's face darkened when he heard the busy tone from the other end of the line.

Luke woke him up when he was about to sleep. Now that he had agreed to help him, Luke hung up the call instead.

He was just a tool, indeed.

Johann was unconvinced. He picked up his phone and called Luke.

"Anything else?" Luke asked.

"No. I'd like to ask you if it's appropriate to disturb someone who's sleeping without apologizing?" Johann questioned him.

It was inappropriate, indeed, but Luke did not feel guilty at all. He replied right away, “Dr. Park, it's late. Please don't disturb me. I'm going to cuddle my wife to sleep."

"You..." Johann gritted his teeth.

"You can find someone else if you're feeling lonely," Luke hung up the call as soon as he finished talking.

Johann's face darkened.

How heartless Luke was. Not only did Luke disturb his sleep, but he even mocked him for being single.

If it were not for their friendship, Johann would have stabbed Luke on his body with the scalpel.

Women? Why did Luke make it sound like he was not popular with women.

Johann paused for a moment. He could not help but yawn.

He truly did not have a girlfriend.

However, it was not because no women were pursuing him but he had no intention of getting into a relationship.

There were many female patients in the hospital who wanted to marry him. Also, there were also those who wanted to introduce their relatives to him.

Hence, he was popular with women.

Johann shook his head. It looked like he had been provoked by Luke, which made him think about this topic.

He tucked himself in bed and stopped thinking about it.

He was single but happy.

On the other hand.

After Luke ended the call, he took a shower and headed to Luca's bedroom.

She was still taking her shower in the bathroom.

Luke sat on the bed. He picked up the book beside the bed after pulling up the blanket.

Luca's heart uncontrollably skipped a beat when she saw Luke reading on the bed after walking out of the bathroom.

Luca realized that, and she could not help but secretly mock herself. It was not the first time she was seeing this. Also, why would her heart always skip a beat even though she had been together with

Luke for such a long time?

Luca concealed her feelings and headed to the dressing table and sat down. She opened the lids of her skincare products and began applying them to her face.

Luke lifted his head and looked at her pretty face, watching every move she did.

Luca knew he was looking at her, but she did not say anything.

She did not have many skincare products, and there were only a few steps to apply the skincare. After massaging her face, she turned off the lights on the dressing table and climbed onto the bed.

Luca pulled the covers off and sat down on the bed. She shot a glance at the man beside her.

Luke had already put the book aside and was getting ready to sleep.

Luke lay down on the bed after Luca lay down flat. He reached out and turned off the lights.

Just like before, his hand would reach for the spot and hold her tight in his arms.

Luca did not struggle, and she closed her eyes.

When she was about to fall asleep, Luke broke the silence. “I asked Johann to do me a favor."

Luca opened her eyes. Darkness came into sight. Her eyes' retina had yet to get used to the darkness as the lights were turned off not long ago. She replied, "What favor?"

“Dexter will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. I asked him to find a way to let Leia meet Dexter," answered Luke.

Luca's heart quivered for a moment. Luke was not doing this to reunite Leia's family. He wanted to upset Leia.

The grudge Leia harbored against her biological father, Dexter, was stronger than expected...

Luca felt slightly uneasy. She eventually turned around and faced Luke.

Luca was unable to see Luke's facial expression in the dark. She could feel his breathing. Meanwhile, she was breathing rapidly.

Luca realized that, so she quickly stabilized her breathing. She said, "Mr. Crawford, that'll upset Leia."

"She's been living her life too comfortably seeing as she dares to mess with you," replied Luke as he forcefully pulled Luca into his arms. He said, "Since she doesn't want to live in peace anymore, then let her have a taste of despair."

Previously, Leia had tried so hard to get rid of Dexter, her worst nightmare. Dexter only went into hiding after he realized how big of a mess he made. Leia did not know how to appreciate the peaceful moments given to her now and even said such harsh things to Luca, thinking that it was Luca's obligation to help her.

Hence, Luke would teach her a lesson and tell her how to respect others.

Of course, in order to do that, Luke would have to begin with Leia learning that she was not a lady of the Norman family.

"All she did was say something harsh to me," said Luca. Anyone could see that Leia was a spoiled child as she sounded like an arrogant snob.

"What she did was not as simple as just saying harsh things to you. Besides, it doesn't matter if she wants to speak in such an arrogant and condescending way to others, but she can't do the same to

you," said Luke. It was clear that he was defending Luca.

It warmed Luca's heart to hear that.

She did not expect Luke to side with her and defend her after she told him about those harsh words Leia said to her.

It felt great to have someone to defend her.

"Then you'll have to make sure not to cross the line. Leia can't handle too much judging from her condition now," Luca was worried. The surgery might be for nothing if Leia could not take it.

"Johann knows what to do. Besides, Leia can get out of bed now. Her condition isn't that bad," replied Luke. He roughly knew about Leia's condition. Although Johann would not tell him the complicated health statistics, he knew Leia was not as vulnerable as the others thought.

"Okay.." Luca replied in a soft voice.

Luke did not want to deal with Leia that soon, but she offended Luca today. She was doomed to have a hard time.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2326-“Get to sleep. Stop overthinking. Either way, don’t worry about it." Luke knew her all too well.

The reason why Luke told her was that Luca would find out about it after he provoked Leia. It would be better to tell Luca in advance so that she would not be worried.

Luca was not worried about Leia, but she was worried about Queenie. Queenie might look for Luca if Leia got triggered.

Luke did not want Luca to mind Leia’s business.

"Alright." Luca was relieved. She leaned against Luke in his arms as the heart-touching feeling lingered in her heart.

Luke held her tight.

Luca could feel that she was melting into his body, becoming one with him.

Luke was always capable of soothing the anxiety in her heart.

Luke was slowly breaking down the anxiety in her heart that had accumulated in her heart for years little by little.

Luca even thought how nice it would be if she could be more selfish. That way, Abel would not be able to use her child to threaten her.

Still, how could she be so selfish?

She loved Luke, and she loved everything about him. The child had her father’s good genes. How could she leave her child alone?

The following day,

In the hospital.

The nurse walked into Leia's ward based on Johann's name list. Then, she said, "Leia, time for a checkup."

Leia was sitting on the sofa, eating the breakfast the caretaker had brought her. She frowned when she heard there was a medical check-up. She asked, "Why is there suddenly a check-up?"

"It's the doctor's instructions. Come with me." The nurse glanced at the name list and confirmed that Leia had to go for a check-up.

"Why didn’t Johann tell me when he was doing his ward round?" Leia was puzzled. She had been doing well these days. That was why there had been no special treatments or check-ups.

Besides, judging from her past experiences, the doctor would always mention to her if there would be a check-up.

"I have no idea. I'm just doing my job. You may ask your attending physician if you have any questions about it," replied the nurse. She was getting impatient as there were many patients on the name list that she had to bring downstairs for the check-up.

Leia frowned, stood up, and took the name list from her.

She had to go for a blood test, urine test, and CT scan...

Leia looked at the tests while she picked up her phone, about to ask Johann what was going on.

The nurse said, “If you refuse to do the check-up, I'll bring other patients downstairs first. No one happens to be doing the tests now.”

The caretaker, who was beside Leia, said, "Ms. Norman, why don't you go ahead with it? There must be a reason why the doctor made such arrangements."

"How troublesome. Why didn't they draw my blood when I haven't eaten anything in the morning?

Now, they want me to go for a blood test." Leia complained while she picked up the jacket and draped it over her shoulder. Then, she followed the nurse out of the ward.

The caretaker followed behind her.

The nurse headed to the nurses' station and nodded at the head nurse, saying, "I'm bringing the patient downstairs for a check-up."

"Okay. Got it," replied the head nurse. She placed a note on Leia's fluid bag. It would let the nurse who was going to give her the injection know that Leia was doing her check-up now.

Leia followed the nurse into the elevator and saw her pressing the button. She frowned and asked, "Why are we going to this floor?"

"You're heading for a check-up," the nurse shot her a glance and explained.

"I usually do my check-ups on the 12th floor," said Leia. Before the surgery, she was sent to do several health screenings. She always headed to the 12th floor.

However, the nurse was bringing her to the 13th floor this time.

"The 12th floor is for hospitalized patients to do their check-ups, but we have to disinfect it today. It'll only be open tomorrow. That's why we'll be heading to the outpatient department for the check-up," explained the nurse.

Leia pulled the jacket that was draped over her shoulder impatiently and looked at the numbers that gradually went down as the elevator descended.

Leia was in a mess now. She was not as glamorous as she appeared back then. Besides, she had no makeup on now, and her face was pale white. She wondered if she would run into someone she knew.

Although she had already stepped away from the entertainment industry, she had starred in many TV shows before. Hence, the public might recognize her.

Leia immediately said, "No way. I have to go back and get my cap and mask."

The nurse thought Leia was troublesome. She could understand why Leia wanted to put on a mask, but a cap? Then, she asked, "You're just doing a check-up. Why do you need a cap?" "Do you have any idea who I am?" Leia pointed at herself and said in a querulous tone.

Every nurse on the VIP floor knew who she was. How could the nurse not know her?

However, Leia also noticed that she had never seen this nurse before. Perhaps she was not from the VIP floor.

The nurse chuckled and replied, “It doesn't matter who you are. You're just a patient here, and you should listen to the doctor's instructions and the nurse's arrangements."

"I'm..." Leia paused for a moment, then continued, "I was a celebrity before."

The nurse took a close look at her face and glanced at her nametag. That was why she looked familiar. It was her.

"So you're.." said the nurse.

"Yes. That's me," Leia said proudly. "I'll need a mask and a cap. Otherwise, don't blame me for causing chaos in the hospital hallway.

The nurse scoffed. However, she had a mask covering her face. That was why Leia did not notice it.

Did Leia think that she was still the innocent angel that everyone knew a few years ago? Her reputation was ruined before she retired from the entertainment industry. Also, she had disappeared without a trace for a few years. People had already forgotten about her.

However, as a nurse, she was not allowed to say such things.

Otherwise, she would be reported and lose her job.

The nurse took a mask out of her pocket and said, "I only have a mask. You'll be running late if you go upstairs to get a cap. There's hardly anyone at the outpatient department now. It's hard to tell if it'll be crowded later."

Leia was afraid of the place being crowded too. She had no choice but to take the mask from the nurse and put it on.

The elevator door slowly opened. Leia followed behind the nurse and got out of the elevator.

"Wait a minute. Let me get a wheelchair," said the nurse. She pushed a wheelchair toward her at the end of the hallway.

Leia was out of breath after walking for some time. Her body was not fully recovered yet. Thus, she sat in the wheelchair and let the caretaker push the wheelchair.

The nurse followed the instructions on the list and did the tests for her one after another.

Finally, there was one blood test left. The nurse said, "Let's head to the second floor for the blood test."

Leia was exhausted after going through all the examinations. She needed some rest now. That was why she did not answer the nurse and just let the caretaker push the wheelchair.

After they arrived on the second floor, the caretaker pushed her and headed to the blood test room.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind them, "Leia, is that you? Leia."

Leia's body trembled as she felt a tremor. It had been years since she heard that voice, but it was still her worst nightmare until today. She quickly said, "Go. Faster."

The nurse and caretaker had yet to figure out what was wrong. Dexter dashed toward her and stopped in front of her. Tears welled up in his eyes as he said, "Leia, I finally get to see you."

"Go away. I don't know who you are." Leia hissed. She shot a glance at Dexter, her eyes filled with hatred.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2327-Dexter pulled down his mask, bent down, and leaned closer to Leia. "It's me. I'm your father!"

Leia gave him a murderous look. Even if the man in front of her had become ashes, she would be able to recognize him, not to mention that he was just wearing a face mask now. However, the man in front of her was definitely not her father!

“My father is a senior official, not some shameless pervert like you!” Leia scowled with her body leaning backward. She wanted to stay away from him.

Dexter was unhappy when he heard Leia refusing to acknowledge him as her father. "He's your foster father, and I'm your biological father. I gave you my liver. How can you say something so unfilial to me?"

Leia wanted to stay away from the man in front of her. She wanted to stand up and leave, but she fell back into the wheelchair as she had no stamina. She accidentally pulled her wound. It was so painful that she furrowed her brows.

"Oh Leia, my good daughter. What's wrong with you?" Dexter immediately comforted her. Dexter was getting older, and he was all alone. Although Luke had given him a sum of money, the money would be gone if he spent it extravagantly.

Dexter had been thinking about it for the past few days. Since Leia had come back, he should seize the chance to look for Leia and ask her to look after him.

However, he had been in the hospital for a couple of days. He could not find out where Leia's ward was no matter how hard he tried to find out.

The doctor told him that he could get discharged from the hospital after doing a final check-up. Therefore, Dexter had given up the idea of looking for Leia.

Today, he followed the nurse for a check-up. He never expected that he would run into Leia.

Dexter was able to recognize Leia with just a glance at her from the back. The person sitting in the wheelchair was Leia.

The nurse who brought Leia for the check-up could not figure out the current situation, so she asked, "What's going on?"

Leia did not care if Dexter showed concern for her. She shot a cold glance at the nurse and said, "Bring me upstairs. I don't know this man." "Leia, how can you be so heartless?" Before the nurse could say anything, Dexter stood up straight and looked around him. Then, he raised his voice, "I know I wasn't a good father and I didn't take care of you back then, but you were lucky enough to have wealthy foster parents. You grew up happily. I was wrong. Now that I'm old, my only wish is to acknowledge you. But you still refuse to admit that I'm your father. I even let the doctor cut half of my liver to save you for the sake of your health. What more do you want from me to be able to forgive me?"

His voice was loud and clear. Many people had come to the outpatient department to do their medical check-us. He caught their attention, and people were staring at them.

Leia was disgusted at the thought of his liver being in her body. A queasy feeling churned in her stomach, and her body temperature was dropping!

She wished that she could cut off all the ties with this man, which included blood ties and genes.

Hence, she would not have accepted Dexter's liver if it were not because she was left with no choice!

Leia retorted, “Get lost. I'll never forgive you. All you knew was to sell your wife and daughter. You don't deserve to be my father!"

Dexter knew Leia hated him, and he knew that he would not have another chance to ask for her forgiveness. He noticed that the people around him were looking at them.

Thud! He kneeled on the floor.

"Leia, I'm sorry. I've spent my days living in the shelter. I really wanted to see you again. I prayed to God, hoping that I could do something for you. And you're finally back here, but you were sick. I knew God was giving me the chance to make it up to you. That's why I donated half of my liver to you. I hope that I can ask for your forgiveness and hear you call me 'Dad'." Tears streamed down Dexter's face. An old man was kneeling before her. Those who did not know what had happened felt sorry for him.

However, Leia was not one of them.

The man's blood was flowing in her body, and she was using his liver too. She knew why he was saying these things to her. He was thinking of exploiting her, like a vampire craving her blood.

Leia was not silly. If she let him get what he wanted, she would have to bear another burden in the future.

She needed someone like Jack to change her life, instead of someone who would hold her back like Dexter.

"Leave me alone. I'm not going to forgive you for everything that you did in the past just because you donated half of your liver to me. Besides, you were paid for this!" Leia knew that if she did not say anything, those people would speak up for Dexter.

"Leia, how can you be so heartless?! I took the money because half of my liver is gone and it might affect my daily life in the future. I couldn't hope for you to take care of me, and that's why I took the money. At least I can make sure that I won't live a miserable life when I have no one to depend on." Dexter sniffled in between words. He was crying his lungs out.

The nurse had already given Dexter a haircut and shaved his beard when he was admitted to the hospital. He no longer looked like a tramp now. He just looked like a skinny, old man.

Outsiders would only think that he was just an old father who had risked his life to save his daughter.

"Don't you ever think that I'll have sympathy for you just because of your words. Perhaps you're just trying to gain sympathy. Go away. I never want to see you again!" Leia yelled at the caretaker, "Why are you still standing there? Bring me upstairs."

The caretaker came back to her senses. Dexter rose to his feet when she was about to reverse the wheelchair. He stood in front of Leia and blocked her. His hands were clasping the wheelchair, refusing to let go. "Leia, I never asked for anything when I donated my liver to you. All I want is to hear you call me 'Dad' again. Can't you do that for me?"

Leia was so furious that her body was trembling, and her body temperature was quickly dropping as well. “You don't deserve it!"

Right after she said that, one of the bystanders said, "I remember her. She's the female celebrity who left the entertainment industry, Leia."

"Really? The name doesn't ring a bell. But she's wearing a mask. How are you able to recognize her?" Another person went along with that man.

"The news stated that she got admitted to the hospital for treatment. I think that's her. I remember that before she ended her career as an actress, a man claimed that he was her biological father and accused her of being unfilial..."

"That should be her. I remember reading that news. Tsk-tsk. How can this woman be so heartless? Even if her father had done something terrible to her, it's all over now. He took the risk to donate his

liver to her at his age. How could she be so ungrateful.." Another bystander criticized her.

Leia's eyes reddened as she yelled at those people, "You know nothing!"

They did not know that Dexter was unworthy of being called a father. Never mind all the things he did in the past. A man like him without any background and social status did not deserve to be her father!

"My father is Jack Norman, not this tramp in front of me!" Leia screamed. She lifted her leg and gave a brutal kick to Dexter's body.

Dexter did not expect that Leia would kick him. It sent him flying to the floor. He noticed that many people were speaking up for him. He remained on the floor and mumbled, "My daughter doesn't want to acknowledge me. She even kicked me. I'm better off dead!"

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2328-“Oh my goodness. How could she do that to him?" The crowd started chattering away again.

"That's true. It doesn't matter what terrible things he did in the past. He intends to turn over a new leaf. Not only does not forgive him, but she also kicked him..."

"Isn't she afraid of getting punished for kicking her father?"

"Yeah. She's gone too far. He's her biological father, after all. He even donated his liver to her."

"That's right. She has no idea how difficult it is to find an organ. My nephew is still waiting for a donor to save his life. He's been waiting for a year. The doctor said that he only has six months left. He might not be able to make it. But there's no donor, and his parents' liver is incompatible with his. There's nothing his parents can do but continue to wait. They're crying and waiting every day. How pitiful. Even though her father did something wrong, it was in the past. He didn't fulfill his duties as a father, but at least he donated his liver. He gave her another chance to live. How could she do that to him?"

Leia's face became gloomy listening to their comments.

"Do you know anything about me? Where were you when he beat my mother up? Why didn't you say anything when he sold my mother and me? He ruined my career after that. You only have sympathy for him and think that he's miserable. What about me? All you do is judge me and scold me. Are you f*cking blind? He took money for helping me. He owes me!" Leia took off her face mask and yelled at those people.

Those who were not sure whether she was Leia before were able to confirm that the woman in front of them was indeed Leia.

Some of them lifted their phones and zoomed in on her at that moment.

Dexter heard Leia. He was worried that what she said would affect him. He quickly kneeled before her and said, "Leia, I took the money to make sure that you could survive in the future. Your foster parents didn't give me the money. I thought I'd have some money to buy you some supplements when you recovered, but you have to acknowledge me as your father. I was wrong back then, but I've been living with regrets for the past few years. I've gotten what I deserve. Now that I'm old, I just want to acknowledge you as my daughter. I'll be satisfied as long as you're willing to call me 'Dad'."

"Look at him. He's already admitted that he made mistakes in the past. It's never too late to admit one's mistakes. Just forgive him. It's better to have a family member than to lose one. He even donated his liver to you." A woman who stood not far away from them was moved by Dexter's words. She could not help but stand out and speak up for him.

Leia sneered. She was so enraged that her face turned red. Then, she pointed at Dexter's nose and scolded, "You wish! Jack Norman is the only father I have. You're just a tramp. Who are you to deserve my acknowledgment?"

This made the crowd gossip again. One of them said in an unfriendly tone, “Why does Mr. Norman have such a daughter?" "She's adopted. It's normal for her to have an evil nature in her. But isn't she ruining Mr. Norman's reputation if she does this?"

"My neighbor's daughter is working in the provincial capital. Stop talking nonsense. Mr. Norman is a good man. She told me that Mr. Norman cares for the citizens. He's planning to implement more social policies for the welfare of the citizens. I heard that Leia was previously sent abroad to further her studies. Perhaps she developed these bad habits when she was abroad. Mr. Norman was kind enough to adopt her, but look at what she's doing to ruin Mr. Norman's reputation. I feel heartache for him to have raised such an ungrateful daughter."

"Yes. Mr. Norman is a kind person. I don't think he wanted Leia to become like this either. Poor thing."

The crowd was talking about Leia at first, then they started talking about Jack. However, Jack's reputation was not ruined because of what Leia said.

Luke's men were among the crowd, but they would only deal with Leia.

If Jack's reputation was ruined because of Leia, it would do no good to the Crawford family either.

"She's just an adopted child, after all. And she's definitely not as good as his biological daughter." Another person concluded.

"Shut up!" Leia snapped. After yelling at them, she realized that Dexter had worsened the situation, making it hard to clean up the mess now.

Leia bit her lip. She rolled her eyes and pretended to faint.

The caretaker shrieked, "Ms. Norman passed out! Oh my goodness, Ms. Norman has passed out!"

The nurse frowned and shouted, "Excuse me. Please make way for her. Help! We need a wheeled stretcher. A patient has passed out."

The medical staff who were busy with their work heard that someone fainted. They immediately brought the wheeled stretcher and hurried over to save Leia.

Dexter cried out, "Leia, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me like this. It's my fault. I know that you don't want to see me. I won't look for you the next time... Leia, please, hang in there."

Leia was moved from the wheelchair to the wheeled stretcher. Then, she was sent to the emergency room.

Johann, who was standing there, smiled and sent the video he recorded to Luke. Luke should be satisfied now.

Johann slowly walked through the crowd. However, the sharp-eyed caretaker was able to recognize him. The caretaker tugged on his sleeve and said, "Dr. Park, here you are. Hurry up and take a look at Ms. Norman. She just fainted."

"Fainted? That serious? Where is she?" Johann pretended to ask in surprise.

"She's in the emergency room now," replied the caretaker. She was worried that she might lose her job if the Norman family blamed her for this.

"Okay. I'll take a look at her. Calm down," said Johann.

"Should I inform her family?" the caretaker asked.

"Let me check on her first." Johann did not let the caretaker inform Leia's family. He had been secretly watching Leia. Although he was recording the video for Luke, he was also observing Leia's condition.

Although Leia had to sit in the wheelchair as she felt exhausted, judging from the situation just now, Leia was just pretending to faint. Hence, it was not a big deal.

Johann walked into the emergency room and asked, "What's wrong?"

“The patient suddenly fainted. Dr. Park, she's your patient, right?" the doctor in the emergency room asked.

“Yes. She's my patient," answered Johann. He walked toward Leia, and he saw Leia's twitching eyelids when he was about to check on her.

Johann smiled and said, “Ms. Norman, stop wasting the hospital's resources if you're still conscious."

Leia opened her eyes and gave him a mean look. Then, she asked, “Why are you here?"

“I was passing by, then I ran into your caretaker. She told me that you were in the emergency room. I came here to check on you," Johann lied.

"I've only passed out for a while and you're here already? I ran into Dexter. Did you make such arrangements on purpose?" Leia narrowed her eyes. She never ran into Dexter in the past few days. After all, she was staying in the VIP ward. The floor she went to for check-ups was higher than the regular patients.

There was no way Dexter could enjoy such preferential treatment.

Therefore, the check-up Johann had arranged for her this time was probably designed to let Leia and Dexter see each other.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2329-“Dexter? Did you pass out because of Dexter?" Johann gave her a confused look and asked, “What happened?"

"Stop pretending that you don't know about it. You arranged for Dexter to be here," Leia sat up on the bed. Her hair was messy, and her eyes were filled with hatred.

Johann knew the person Leia did not want to see the most was Dexter. That was why he set this up.

"Ms. Norman, you need evidence to prove that. The Norman family is concerned about your health. That's why I'm Dexter's attending physician too. The purpose was to increase the success rate of the surgery. I was the surgeon who removed Dexter's liver from him and transplanted it into your body. Dexter is getting discharged today. That's why I asked him to do a final check-up to make sure that he's fine. Who'd expect that you'd run into him here?" Johann asked.

"You did it on purpose. You knew Dexter was going for a check-up. That's why you arranged for me to go for a check-up too." Leia could not be bothered about the other doctors. She blamed Johann for what happened just now.

"You're pushing the blame on me." The smile on Johann's face disappeared, replaced with a sneer. "I knew the instruments on the 12th floor are unusable as they're doing disinfection works today. That's why I specifically arranged your schedule for the check-up to be different from Dexter's. Why don't you ask yourself or Dexter why the two of you would run into each other?"

"You..." Leia refused to believe that Johann had nothing to do with this.

"Perhaps you can ask Dexter to come over here and show you the checklist. Then you can see that the schedule I've arranged for Dexter and yours is different," Johann added.

"I don't want to see him!" Leia scowled. How she wished that she could rip Dexter into pieces, chew him up, and swallow him down her stomach. It seemed like that was the only way to get rid of her hatred for him.

Johann sneered and said, "Since there's nothing wrong with you, please go back to your ward and stop wasting the hospital's resources."

Johann showed no remorse. Leia gritted her teeth and said, "Johann Park, I'm going to file a complaint about you."

"Go ahead," replied Johann. He was not afraid of her filing a complaint against him. Everything he arranged was perfect.

The schedule he arranged for Dexter was supposed to take place half an hour later.

It was Dexter who wanted to desperately get out of the hospital. That was why he came here earlier for the check-up and ran into Leia.

As for why Dexter would come for his health check-up in advance, was it not because of Leia? Johann smiled.

Johann deliberately got someone to mention that Leia was doing her check-up on the second floor when Dexter was queuing up to get his medicine.

Dexter had always wanted to see Leia since he got admitted into the hospital, but Leia was being protected well. There was no way he could find out where her ward was. That was why he never got to see her.

However, now that there was a chance to see Leia, of course, Dexter would take it.

Leia looked at Johann from behind. Anger stirred within her. She grabbed something beside her and threw it at him.

“Ms. Norman, don't mess around with that. That's a mercury thermometer." A doctor was sharp-eyed enough to notice what Leia was trying to do and reminded her.

Leia glanced at the thermometer she was holding in her hands. Then, she put down the thermometer resentfully.

She was burning with anger!

The doctor said, "Since there's nothing wrong with you, I'll ask your caretaker to come in and get you back to your ward."

"Ask her to come in," Leia demanded.

The doctor called the caretaker over.

The caretaker pushed the wheelchair into the emergency room and asked in a worried tone, "Ms. Norman, are you okay?"

"Dumb*ss, why did you stand there like a statue when I asked you to leave?" Leia glowered at her and scolded.

Leia was sensitive to Dexter's voice. She knew that it was him even though she had not seen him.

If the caretaker had responded sooner, Leia would not have run into Dexter.

"I... I didn't know something like that would happen..." The caretaker did not realize what was going on and who that man was. Dexter was already clasping the wheelchair when she came back to his senses.

If the caretaker forcefully pushed the wheelchair when Dexter was in front, it would hurt him. What would she do if someone asked her to pay the compensation?

That was why the caretaker did not do anything.

"Useless piece of sh*t!" Leia had no choice but to vent her anger on the caretaker.

The doctor could no longer stand her. He had been working in the hospital for a long time, and he had met celebrities who came to the hospital. However, no matter how popular that celebrity was, none of them was as bad-tempered as Leia was.

Celebrities cared about their images, but the woman in front of him.

The doctor shook his head helplessly. Could it be that she had nothing to lose, so she stopped taking care of her image just because she had quit the entertainment industry?

"Ms. Norman, please go back to your ward if there's nothing else. I've looked at the checklist the nurse gave me just now. You need a blood test. Let me draw the blood for you," the doctor said. He quickly drew Leia's blood and asked her to leave.

The caretaker helped Leia to get in the wheelchair and left.

The crowd was gone. After all, they were in the hospital, not the market. No one would continue to stay here just to gossip about her.

Still, Leia had lost her reputation.

Luke and Luca were having lunch together when it was noontime. He took his phone out and played the video of Leia being stopped by Dexter in the hospital.

Luca frowned after she finished watching the video. “Did she pass out?"

"It's fake," replied Luke. Johann had told him that Leia was fine.

"She's good at acting," said Luca. Leia pretended to faint to avoid being surrounded and talked about. It was a good idea. Leia was pretty clever, but she was foolish too.

The way Leia fainted was too slow.

There would not be so many negative comments if she had pretended to pass out before Dexter spilled everything.

After all, the crowd was obviously siding with Dexter.

Still, Leia was Dexter's biological daughter, after all. Dexter was so good at acting. That was why Leia was good at it too.

She got it from her father...

Luca watched Dexter's performance in the video. If she did not know what kind of person he was, she would have thought that Dexter had turned over a new leaf and he was merely a father who was begging for his daughter's forgiveness.

"It's the heredity," Luke kept his phone away and commented.

Leia did not inherit her skills from Queenie. After all, Queenie and Leia had no blood ties.

Luca nodded and continued eating her lunch.

Leia had just put on a show, so Luca did not have to worry about it anymore. After all, someone would step forward and start a discussion about how Leia had mentioned Jack Norman, but she would not be able to drag Jack into this.

It should be fine as long as she did not get Jack and Queenie into trouble.

Luca had nothing to do with how unfortunate and miserable Leia would end up.

Luca was not that generous to be able to forgive everything Leia had done, but she also could not take revenge on Leia for what she did to her in the past for Queenie's sake.

The video on Luke's phone was already on the internet.

Not only was Luke's version posted on the internet, but those who recorded the scene had also uploaded their videos.

Many onlookers had been watching them in the hospital, after all.

Jack had seen the video too.

Mr. Lucas sent the video to Jack the moment he saw the video on the internet.

Jack frowned when he saw Leia in the video.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2330-Leia was like a shrew. Not only was she sharp-tongued, but she also kicked Dexter.

Dexter even kneeled before her to ask for her forgiveness in the video. If Jack was a passerby who knew nothing about this, he would have thought something was wrong with Leia too.

Leia had just finished her surgery, yet she had already gotten herself into trouble.

“Leia has gone too far!" Jack was so angry that he slammed the table with his palm.

Mr. Lucas, who was standing beside Jack, trembled with fear. He immediately said, "Mr. Norman, calm down."

"She said terrible things. How am I supposed to calm down?" Jack's face was red with anger. If he had not taken the antihypertensive medication this morning, his blood pressure would have shot up because of the video.

Not only was Leia ruining her image, but she even tried to drag Jack into this.

Leia mentioned Jack Norman's name many times in the video.

Although Leia was only emphasizing that she was Jack's daughter, it was the parents' responsibility to educate their children. It seemed like Leia did not think it was enough to cause trouble herself and wanted to drag Jack into this.

Mr. Lucas said in a soft voice, "Don't worry, I've already read the comments online. Even though your name is mentioned in the comments, most of them are only talking about Ms. Norman, saying that she doesn't deserve to be your daughter. They're complimenting what you've done for the citizens. That's why Ms. Norman isn't unworthy of such a good father..."

"Is that really so?" Jack frowned. He thought the comments online would speak ill of him and claim that he had failed to educate his daughter.

"Yes. The witnesses at the scene spoke up for you. If you continue watching the video, you'll realize that the comments about you were mostly talking about this. Someone even commented that you were strict with Ms. Norman, but she was born rebellious. That's why this has nothing to do with you.

Someone also." Mr. Lucas paused for a moment and dared not to continue.

"What else?" Jack wanted to know what the public thought about this.

"Mr. Norman, I'm sorry but I dare not to tell you about this." Mr. Lucas lowered his head.

"I'll have to waste my time reading their comments if you refuse to tell me," said Jack. "Tell me. I won't blame you."

"Those people suggested you sever ties with Leia. The two of you are not related to each other anyway. You've fulfilled your obligations to her for so many years. This time, you spent so much money on her to save her life. But Ms. Norman is being ungrateful for treating her biological father this way. She might do the same thing to you in the future..." Mr. Lucas conveyed the messages that were speaking up for Jack.

Some of the commenters were paid by Luke to lead public opinion. After all, Leia could not affect Jack. Even if Jack was affected, it had to be something positive.

Once the commenters started commenting, the comments after that were the deepest thoughts of the netizens.

All of them thought that Jack should not be supporting Leia anymore. Leia had grown up long ago, yet she had never fulfilled her duties as a daughter. Instead, she kept getting herself into trouble. The

surgery had cost the Norman family a fortune.

There were tons of such comments.

Mr. Lucas could not help but think it made sense too.

“Did the netizens really write something like that?” Jack was surprised. He thought the public would make a big deal out of it and scold him for failing to educate his daughter.

“Everyone is talking about the same thing. I've been reading their comments. Most of the commenters feel bad for you.." said Mr. Lucas.

Jack nodded and closed the video. What Leia did in the video annoyed him. She was behaving like a shrew, making a scene in the hospital hallway. She even kicked Dexter.

If it were not for Leia's weak body, would she have beat Dexter to death? Would she only stop after that?

Jack could sense how scary Leia was. His hatred for Leia was no longer as little as it was before. What Leia did in the past had already used up all his patience and kindness that he could shower on his child. Now that Leia had gotten herself into trouble again, what was left was only hatred and disgust.

If it were not for Queenie, who was reluctant to part with Leia, Jack would have severed ties with Leia.

Even if he could not do that, he would send her abroad and leave her there to die.

"Keep an eye on those comments online. Inform me immediately if there's anything wrong." Jack did not let his guard down. He was worried that his opponent would use this to start a rumor.

"Okay. Leave it to me," replied Mr. Lucas. He would be attentive in handling such things.

"Do I have a meeting later?" asked Jack.

"Yes, Mr. Norman. You have 10 minutes to rest before the meeting," Mr. Lucas confirmed with him after glancing at the time.

"Okay. Please excuse me. I'd like to make a call." Jack picked up the phone beside him.

After Mr. Lucas left, Jack gave Luke a call.

The call was answered soon after, and Jack asked, "Luke, am I bothering you?"

"No. Are you calling me because of Leia's matter?" Luke guessed. Jack was a senior official, after all. He would find out about it as soon as something happened.

"It seems like you've already watched the video," said Jack. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the family photo on his office desk.

The photo was taken before Bianca got kidnapped.

The more Jack looked at Leia in the photo, the more she became an eyesore to him.

“Johann told me what happened in the hospital at the first instance. Leia pretended to pass out to avoid things from getting bigger," replied Luke. He was telling Jack that he was not concerned about Leia, but it was Johann who told him about it.

"Did Dr. Park say that?" Jack wanted to find out what happened.

Luke replied, "It's roughly like what happened in the videos posted on the internet. Johann had no idea why Leia ran into Dexter either. The hospital's 12th floor is getting disinfected today. Leia had to head downstairs for the check-up. He even scheduled Dexter's check-up for half an hour later, but Dexter still ran into Leia."

Luke explained it on behalf of Johann. It was also to let Jack think that Johann had nothing to do with this.

"Such a coincidence still happened?" Jack frowned.

"Dexter has always wanted to meet Leia," said Luke. He would not let Jack find out that it was Johann's and his arrangement.

After all, Leia was out of her mind. She spoke without thinking twice and considering where she was. This time, she even dragged Jack into this mess. Jack might be mad at him if he found out that it was their plan.

"I know. At least everything is still under control now. Luke, you're closer to Dr. Park. Remind him to pay more attention to Leia's health and don't give her the chance to make a scene," Jack said in a serious tone. He was very unhappy with what had happened today.

"Okay. I know what to do," replied Luke.

Jack glanced at the time and said, "I'll also need you to follow up on this matter. As for Dexter, he might make a big deal out of it after what happened today. I don't want to let this mess continue."

"Okay." Luke understood what he meant.

Dexter was just a tool. He could be thrown away after he had played his role.

Hence, Luke did not feel sorry for losing Dexter as his tool.
