Ch. 2421..2430

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2421-Allison pretended to be surprised and said, "Luke, what nonsense are you talking about? Nothing was added to the wine. It's fine. I think you're just drunk. Sophian, help him to the bedroom. Let him spend the night here."

Sophian nodded. However, Luke was looking daggers at her when she was about to step forward.

Sophian was so frightened that she remained rooted to the spot.

Allison was rendered speechless when she saw that, and she urged Sophian, “What are you doing there? Can't you see that my son is feeling uncomfortable? Help him up and bring him to the room.”

"Okay." Sophian mustered her courage and came near Luke. She thought there was no need to be afraid of him after tonight.

Luke took his phone out and stared at Sophian with his icy cold gaze while she came closer to him. Then, he said, "I'll kill you if you come near me."

"Mr. Crawford..." Sophian was horrified.

Although they were living under the rule of law, Luke's gaze was terrifying. His gaze was like a knife. It was so sharp that it could slit the carotid artery in her throat.

Allison sneered. She did not expect Luke to have such strong willpower.

It seemed like Luke truly hated Sophian. Otherwise, how would he be able to stop Sophian approaching him while under the influence of the aphrodisiac?

"Useless. You, go help him." Allison turned to look at Melanie beside her.

Melanie was overwhelmed with astonishment upon seeing Luke in such a state. It was obvious that Luke had been drugged.

As for what kind of drug Luke had been given, Melanie was not sure about it. However, she was sure that it was Allison who drugged Luke.

A mother drugging her son. How ridiculous!

"Madam, I'm sorry. I dare not. Young Master Luke looks awful. Why don't we call the ambulance.." Melanie replied in a shaking voice.

Allison glared at her and said, "Ambulance? Are you trying to bring bad luck to me during the New Year? He's drunk. I'm the owner of this house. Help him go upstairs."

Luke stared at Allison with his reddened eyes.

He had already called Gale's phone number.

Although he did not say anything, Gale had heard their conversation. Luke believed that he would be coming to save him soon.

Melanie submissively walked toward Luke and said in a low voice, “Young Master Luke, it wasn't me. I'm sorry..."

An ominous dark cloud shadowed Luke's eyes when he heard Melanie being in such a hurry to clarify that she had nothing to do with this.

She was just a maid who was sent here from Crawford Manor. She would not have the guts to set him up.

"Why are you dawdling there? Hurry up." Allison was worried something might change her plan when she saw Luke slumped on the chair without struggling.

Even though Allison knew Luke hated Sophian, she insisted on carrying out the plan.

Luke was not the kind of person who would be irresponsible for what he had done.

Allison had asked Sophian if she had slept with anyone before. Sophian had never slept with anyone else to keep herself pure. Hence, once Luke found out about it, he would certainly be responsible for Sophian. It would be too late to change anything by then. Luke would have to take responsibility for her and take care of her!

Melanie trembled with fear while she walked toward Luke and helped him up. "Young Master Luke, I'm sorry. Please don't blame me after you're sober."

Luke looked down. The moment Melanie helped him up, his gaze was sharp and intense.

Sophian took a step back as she was horrified.

The drug's effects had kicked in now. Luke should be weak now, and there should be lust burning in his eyes. However, Luke's gaze was clear and sharp at this moment. If his stare could kill someone, she would have died a million times for being stared at like that.

Melanie made strenuous efforts to help Luke up, and when they were about to walk to the living room, Gale broke into the house.

Melanie was shocked. "Who are you? How did you come in?!"

"I'm Boss' bodyguard. Give him to me." Gale figured out what was going on when he saw Luke lean against the maid weakly.

It was as expected. Allison was trying to set Luke up.

"Madam! Madam! Someone broke into the house!" Melanie did not know who the man in front of her was. She dared not to let the man take Luke away. Hence, she called Allison for help.

Allison initially thought of scolding Sophian when she heard her. She immediately dashed out of the dining room and saw that Gale was already carrying Luke. She frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

"I'm Gale, his bodyguard. I'm taking him away now. Do you have a problem with it?" Gale spoke arrogantly.

It rang a bell when Allison heard Gale's name, but she had never met him before. She clenched her fists and said, "This is Luke's house. Where are you taking him?"

"Boss told me that this isn't his home. I'm just following his orders. Ms. Allison, I'm taking him away first." Gale smirked. He was about to carry Luke and head out.

"His orders? He's feeling uncomfortable now. I order you to leave him here. Otherwise, I'm calling the police!" Allison threatened him. She did not expect Luke to have made such arrangements in advance.

Her plane would be ruined if Gale took Luke away.

However, there was no way Allison could fight the man in front of her.

"It's up to you." Gale was not afraid of her. He glanced at Luke and sensed that his boss had already reached his limits. They could not stay here any longer. Then, he said, "Do explain to the police officers what kind of drug you gave Boss and who's the one who drugged him when you call them."

Melanie was afraid that she would be suspected. She quickly explained, "It wasn't me. I didn't do anything!"

Gale smirked as his gaze fell on Allison. Sophian, the woman who stood behind her, was trembling in fear.

"Just wait for it. Boss will come looking for you when he's sober." After that, he supported Luke on his shoulder and left.

Allison turned around and realized Sophian was shaking. She could not help but scold her, "What the hell are you doing here? Someone's taking him away. Why aren't you going to take him back?"

Sophian was too afraid to cry and said, "Ms. Allison, I can't fight that man..."

"You piece of sh*t!" Allison chided. She walked to the window and watched Gale support Luke on his shoulder and leave.

There was no way Gale could come in without someone telling him the passcode earlier. Hence, the only explanation that would make sense was Luke had told him the passcode earlier, and that was why he could come in.

She did not expect Luke to come prepared.

Allison gritted her teeth with anger. She had said so much to please him but in the end, it was for nothing!

She was burning with resentment!

Gale helped Luke to get into the car after he carried Luke and left the villa in a hurry.

He was worried that Luke would do something reckless due to the drug's effects. Hence, he helped Luke to fasten his seatbelt.

"Boss, hang in there. I'm sending you to the hospital now," said Gale.

"Don't go to the hospital.." Although Luke was weak, he was still conscious.

"Boss, you have to go to the hospital.."

"I know what's wrong with me.." It took Luke a lot of effort to say it to him. The burning sensation in his body had used up all his strength. All he had in mind now was to hold Luca in his arms and make her his woman.

Perhaps, this was the chance he had been waiting for.

"Boss.." Gale was sitting in the driver's seat. He turned around to check on Luke.

Luke's cheeks were flushed red. Gale instantly knew what was wrong with him.

"Send me back.." Luke instructed.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2422-Gale clenched his teeth and said, “Boss, hang in there."

Then, he hit the accelerator and sped off.

In the villa.

Allison watched Gale drive off with Luke in the car through the security camera. She gritted her teeth in anger and stared angrily at Sophian.

Sophian was frightened. Allison was looking as though she wanted to devour her. A chill went down her spine, and she could not help but shudder for a moment. Then, she said in a soft voice, "Ms. Allison—"

"Shut up!" Allison interrupted her menacingly, "If it weren't for you dawdling there, how could Gale have brought him away?"

If Sophian had mustered her courage and brought Luke upstairs, Allison would have had a way to stop Gale.

They would not have ended up with Luke being taken away by someone else when they were carrying out their plan.

"Mr. Crawford was so frightening. I was scared..." Sophian quibbled for her cowardice with embarrassment.

It was normal for her to feel frightened when Luke stared at her like he would skin her alive.

After all, she had never come into contact with someone like him.

"He was almost yours, yet you were still afraid of him. Great. Our mission has failed. He'll never believe in me again. He won't trust you either," Allison spoke without hesitation since the maid was not around.

Sophian almost cried after getting scolded by her. She replied, "Didn't the maid delay things too. Ms.

Allison, please stop blaming me."

"Does the maid have anything to do with your lack of courage? Besides, is she the one who wants to sleep with him or you?" Allison was harsh.

Sophian had always been putting all her eggs in one basket. It ended up a complete failure now.

She had no idea what Luke would do to her when he sobered up.

Allison became restless at the thought of this. She warned Sophian, "I told you that you had to bear the responsibility if you failed this time. Don't drag me into this."

"Ms. Allison, I." Sophian was afraid. She was worried Luke would take revenge.

Sophian would be staying here for a few more days. Luke would have enough time to take revenge on her.

“Stop that. You promised me after I said that to you. That's how things ended up now. Plus, the security camera recorded the moment you sprinkled the powder into the wine glass. That'll be the evidence. I can still prove my innocence to him. You'll only be safe if I'm fine," said Allison.

Sophian remembered that she had to depend on Allison to return to Seoul.

She had to make sure nothing happened to her. Hence, she nodded and agreed with Allison. "Okay. Ms. Allison. If Mr. Crawford comes after us, just tell him that it was my idea."

"It'll be best if you say that. If something happens to me, you won't be able to get away with it either." Allison turned off the computer screen of the security camera. Then, she turned around and left.

Sophian looked at Allison from behind. She felt like crying.

She was so close to getting Luke, but she was frightened by his piercing stare. She had gotten herself in trouble now, and she lost.

Besides, Allison was shifting all the responsibility to her.

Sophian had no idea what she would have to face tomorrow...

Perhaps Allison would sacrifice her to save herself. She would be left with no choice at that time.

Gale was flying down the highway. The driving skills he had been practicing came in handy now.

He drove his way past the cars without concern about the situation of the road and the cars on the road. He cut lines and overtook the other cars right away.

It was because the man in the car seemed to be on the verge of breaking down.

Gale noticed that Luke's face was red. If Luke did not soak himself in water or take the antidote now, his organs might not be able to take it.

"Urgh." Luke groaned in pain.

He clenched his fists, trying to control himself from unfastening the seat belt and thinking of Gale as a woman.

Gale shivered. He had seen such drugs on the Island of Despair. They were given to the women. Those women would submit to the men after taking the drugs. Then, they would be forced to become the slaves of the Island of Despair.

"Boss, hang in there. We're almost there. Besides, I'm a man," said Gale.

"Shut up!" Luke used up all his strength and scolded him. The burning desire in his body made him uncontrollably twist his body.

Luca, Luca.

Every cell in his body was thirsty for Luca's body.

"Boss, are you going there like this?" Gale asked. It was not too late yet. The kids might be frightened to see him in such a state.

"I'll pretend. as if nothing happened." replied Luke.

Gale bit his lip. Would Luke be able to act as if nothing had happened?

This kind of drug had strong effects. Gale could say that he was drunk if he did not do anything to Luca. He was afraid that Luke would lose control the moment he touched Luca. Then, he would make some gestures.

The kids would be confused if they saw him doing that.

It would be a bad influence on the kids.

Luke had the same thing on his mind as Gale. He could endure it for a short while, but he would not be able to last long.

Besides, the night was still young. Even if Luca was willing to help him, the kids were there...

“Take the kids with you. Let them spend the night at your place." Luke's strength was coming back, but the desire in his body was not gone yet.

That was the scariest thing about the drug.

He needed Luca.

Gale pondered for a moment. The three kids were good and obedient, and they would not cause any trouble. Hence, he agreed to it, "Okay, Boss. We'll be arriving in five minutes. Hang in there."

The car was moving fast on the road. They arrived at the villa's entrance four minutes later.

Gale got out of the car first. He entered the passcode and drove the car into the compound.

He had already informed Luca while they were on the way back so that she would be prepared for this.

The moment the car came to a halt, Luca hurried over with a gloomy face. She pulled the car door open and saw Luke in such a state. Her face turned darker as she asked, "He's been drugged?"

"Yes, Dr. Craw. Please find a way to save him," Gale replied anxiously. He bent down and unfastened Luke's seat belt.

Then, Gale and Luca helped Luke up.

"Boss, can you walk yourself?" Gale asked. It was difficult for him and Luca to help him walk.

Gale was planning to carry Luke on his shoulder and take him to the bedroom right away if he could not walk.

"Luca.." Luke did not answer his question. He opened his eyes and stared at Luca with his face red.

"Mr. Crawford, I'm here. It's cold out here. Let's go into the house first." Luca held onto his waist to help him up.

Gale did not help him to put on the coat when he sent him back. Luke was only wearing two layers of clothes on him. He would catch a cold if he stood outside in the cold.

Luca turned to look at Gale.

Gale took the hint and said helplessly, "Boss has been calling your name since we got into the car just now."

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2423-He called out her name the entire drive here.

Luca's face turned red upon hearing that.

Luke was wide awake, but he used the drug as an excuse to hug Luca like a raccoon and bury his face in her neck. Then, he repeated softly, "Luca..."

Luca was not wearing a scarf, so she could feel his hot breath as he exhaled directly on her neck.

Luke had placed his entire weight on her body.

Luca could not hold him up much longer, so she looked at Gale and said, "Carry Mr. Crawford inside."

Gale nodded, and when he was about to pull Luke away from clinging to Luca, he heard his objection.

"Just support me."

"Boss.." Gale was speechless. Did he fake his loss of self-control just now?

Doing this in an open-air garden in the middle of winter was not a good idea.

The drug may have raised his body temperature, but he and Luca were freezing right now.

"Prop me up." Luke said with his eyes closed. The kids were in the living room, so he did not want to embarrass himself by letting Gale carry him.

"Okay." Gale nodded and looked toward Luca as he needed extra help to support him.

Luca nodded after receiving a look from Gale and was ready to help him, but Luke stopped her.

"Just let Gale do it," he said.

She had a light fragrance that was usually faintly discernible. Only when he went up close would he be able to smell her addictive fragrance.

However, after being stimulated by the drug, his sense of smell had been amplified by a hundred times. If she came close, her charming scent would repeatedly attack his sensory nerves.

Luke felt like he would not be able to hold it in if she came any closer.

Luca was stunned, and she just nodded.

Gale had no choice but to strenuously support Luke. It was a good thing he was consistently working out, so he was able to persevere despite it being hard.

Luca followed behind them to help support Luke, just in case Gale could no longer hold him up.

Besides, Luke was in a state where every muscle of his body was weak.

The three of them walked into the living room while the three children stood by the couch and looked at them in unison.

“Daddy, are you okay?" Rainie looked at Luke worriedly as she felt like something was off.

Luke did not say a word.

Gale explained, "Boss is drunk because he had too much to drink."

Tommy wondered, "Is Daddy that bad at drinking? And didn't he go to Grandma's house for dinner?

Why did he drink?"

Gale sighed internally as they undoubtedly shared the same genes as Luke. Although they were kids, they were not easy to fool.

Luca went forward and explained, "It's common for adults to drink among ourselves during the New Year."

After finishing, she looked toward Gale. "Mr. Gale, please send Mr. Crawford upstairs."

"Alright." Gale nodded and helped Luke upstairs.

Although Luke's mind and body were being controlled by the drug, he still gripped the handrail tightly as he took the first step of the stairs.

Luca was relieved to see that he was still somewhat conscious.

Otherwise, Gale would have to carry him up.

The three children looked at Luke worriedly.

"Is Daddy going to be okay?" Tommy said out of concern.

"Ms. Luca is here, so he'll be fine..." Rainie replied. In her eyes, Luca's medical skills were miraculous, so anything was possible.

Luca turned to look at them after hearing their words and said, "I'll go up to take a look. You all be good and stay in the living room."

"Ms. Luca, don't worry. I'll look after my younger siblings." Lanie, who had not said a word since just now, suddenly spoke.

Luca nodded. He was the most mature and understanding of the three children.

She walked upstairs quickly.

Gale had already placed Luke on the bed in her bedroom.

"Dr. Craw, look at him. Boss seems to be suffering. Why don't you help him?" He dared not be overly straightforward as he did not want to embarrass her.

"I'll figure it out. By the way, was he drugged by someone there?" Although Luca already knew the answer, she still wanted to make sure so as not to wrongfully accuse the innocent.

Gale nodded and glanced at Luke, who was tossing and turning restlessly in bed.

If Luca would not help him, he might have to give him an ice bath.

Taking an ice-cold bath in the middle of winter was going to be the death of him.

"How could his mother drug him? Not to mention with this kind of drug." Luca could hardly believe it.

“There was also another woman. She probably did it to help the woman, but I'm not sure who she is. Dr. Craw, I think it's better for you to ask the boss yourself." Gale dared not guess the woman's identity. "Boss expected that something bad would happen, which was why he asked me to drive him there. He also asked me to take the kids home for Rain to take care of them for the night and bring them back tomorrow as he doesn't want to leave a bad impression on the children."

When the drug kicked in, it would indeed leave a bad impression on the children...

Luca did not know if she had a way of eliminating the effects of the drug. The last resort would be to become his woman once again.

If the children were there, it would affect them badly.

"Okay, sorry for the trouble." Luca nodded.

"Then, I'll go downstairs to tell the kids that Boss is having a hard time and that you'll have to help him because he refuses to go to the hospital. You can keep an eye on him."

He was going to take the children away.

Luke knew that Gale was leaving and could no longer restrain himself, so he reached to undo his clothes.

Luca bit the bullet and walked in as she closed the door behind her.

"Mr. Crawford, I'll go and fill the tub for you. You'll feel better after a bath," she said as she walked toward the bathroom.

Luca was not opposed to becoming Luke's woman as she was once his woman anyway.

It was just that the more memories they had, the harder it would be for her to leave at the end.

"Luca, are you trying to kill me?" Luke had already undone his shirt, revealing his well-defined chest.

"Mr. Crawford.." Luca walked to the bedside, and before she could sit down, his hand pulled her toward him.

"Ah!" She cried out as she fell directly on top of Luke.

There was a powerful impact on Luke's chest, and he muffled a grunt before begging her, "Help me, Luca. Help me."

"Mr. Crawford, we can't." Luca looked at the dark look in his eyes and wailed internally. Was she going to go so far?

If it happened once, it could happen again.

"I beg you, I'm suffering. Just like the old times. That's all I need.." Luke held her tightly.

"I.." Luca took a deep breath and closed her eyes. She had long said yes in her heart, but her mind was still racing. When she heard a muffled grunt, she opened her eyes with trembling eyelashes. "Okay.."

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2424-Two hours later, the room quieted down.

Luca closed her eyes and leaned against Luke's chest.

Allison drugged him so hard that she had to sacrifice herself in the end.

The scent of their breaths intertwined and made Luca's heart flutter uncontrollably as she had become his woman once again.

"Luca..." Luke wrapped his arms around her and held her tightly like he wanted to become one with her body.

"Mhm," she answered dreamily.

Luke hugged her close without saying a word.

This hug was more real than a thousand-word-long profession of love.

The next day.

Gale sent the three children back to the mansion.

Luca was preparing breakfast, and when she saw that Gale had brought the children back. She walked out in her apron to welcome them. "Mr. Gale, have you had breakfast yet?"

Gale shook his head with a smile and looked at Luke. "Boss, I did what you ordered me to do."

"Okay." Luke closed the newspaper. He was a man of few words as usual, but he was in a good mood today.

Gale also sensed it, so he looked at Luca. It seemed like the boss got what he wanted last night. He finally got to hold his woman to sleep. novelbin

Luca's face turned red from Gale's gaze, but she invited him in, "Mr. Gale, I was just about to make breakfast. Why don't you stay and have some?"

"Sure, I want to try Dr. Craw's cooking too." Gale immediately agreed without checking Luke's expression.

He had long heard that Luca's cooking skills were superb.

Plus, he had helped Luke a great deal yesterday. He even snatched him away from another woman's hands and brought him home safely.

Not to mention, he also helped preserve Luke's chastity.

Hence, having a meal at their place should not be a problem.

Luke did not voice his opinion, so Luca turned around and walked back to the kitchen to make breakfast.

Upon seeing that, Lanie welcomed him. “Uncle Gale, have a seat."

“Okay." Gale happily sat down on the chair.

Tommy went beside Luke and said with concern, “Daddy, do you feel better now?"

Luke reached out with his big palm and pat his head, “I'm okay now."

“Ms. Luca is the best. Uncle Gale was right. Daddy will be fine as long as Ms. Luca is around," Tommy recalled what Gale said yesterday and repeated it out loud.

“Tommy..." Although he was not wrong, Tommy had betrayed him.

Luke gave Gale a death stare.

Tommy said with an innocent look, “Uncle Gale, isn't that what you said? You were praising Ms. Luca. You even said that she's as good as a firefighter!"

Gale facepalmed himself in regret.

He should not have said such things when the kids were worried about Luke, and he should not have stayed for breakfast.

Tommy was a traitor to his own teammate.

“You said such things to the children?" Luke frowned as the kids were still young, so they would not be able to understand the meaning behind those words. However, adults would be able to understand.

He was being a bad influence on the kids!

What if curiosity got the better of them and they looked it up on the internet?

“Boss, I was just giving an example.." Gale tried to explain with a guilty look on his face.

“Although your vocabulary is limited, you shouldn't say such things." Luke held Tommy on the sofa and thought to himself to not let the kids come in contact with someone as unreliable as Gale that often from now on.

“Boss, Tommy's questions rendered me speechless. That's why I said that."

Tommy listened to Luke lecturing Gale and said confusedly, “Daddy, what's wrong? Firefighters are awesome. Uncle Gale was just saying how great Ms. Luca's skills are!"

“Yeah." Luke gave Gale a warning look.

Gale shut his mouth after that.

He could not say anything, nor should he say anything.

Luca was not aware of what went down in the living room. After preparing breakfast and serving it on the table, she made her way to the living room and said to them, “Breakfast is ready."

When it came to food, Tommy would always be the first to hop off the sofa. He clapped his hands together and said, “Finally, I can have breakfast. What are we having today, Ms. Luca?"

“You'll know it when you see it." Luca was all smiles. Her body was sore and tired, but making breakfast for her loved ones was something to be happy about.

She looked at Gale and said, “Mr. Gale, breakfast is ready."

Gale jumped up as he was too embarrassed to stay for breakfast after Luke gave him a death stare when Tommy exposed him, so he said, “Sorry, Dr. Craw. I'd better go, Rain is looking for me."

“Mr. Gale, breakfast won't take long. Plus, I prepared your portion too. It'll be a waste if you don't eat it." Luca found it odd that Gale wanted to leave in a hurry, so she thought that it must have something to do with Luke.

With that in mind, she glanced at Luke.

Luke stood up and looked at Gale. “Breakfast won't hold you up for long."

Gale only felt chills down his spine, and it occurred to him that Luke would not do anything to him with Luca around. Hence, he said with a smile, “Alright, I'll try Dr. Craw's cooking, then."

The few of them entered the dining room.

On the dining table were six steaming hot bowls of macaroni. There was not much macaroni in each of the bowls because there were also meatballs, bread, and egg.

Luca walked into the kitchen and brought out the milk.

“Since both of you aren't going to work, I didn't prepare any coffee. Is that okay?" she asked.

“It's fine," said Luke. He loved any food or drink that Luca made.

“The macaroni smells great, Dr. Craw. what macaroni is this?" Gale asked while seated on the chair.

“Just plain macaroni. I added some butter in it to make it taste better," Luca explained.

“I see. I'll be helping myself, then." Gale picked up the utensils and took a bite. Then, his eyes lit up when he tasted the food.

It was absolutely scrumptious!

“It's delicious!"

Tommy picked up a piece of bread and ate it together with the macaroni. After hearing Gale's words, he said, “Uncle Gale, everything Ms. Luca makes is delicious. The bread and meatballs are delicious too."

“Dr. Craw, your cooking is amazing. I should bring Rain over here sometime to learn from you," said Gale as Luca's cooking was like heaven whereas Rain's cooking was even more horrifying than hell.

“Boss, why don't you force Rain to learn how to cook from Luca? Her cooking will be the death of me."

“Those hands of hers aren't meant for cooking in the first place." Luke reached out to grab a piece of bread and handed it to Luca.

“You've got a point..." Gale nodded as Rain was indeed not suited for the role of a housewife, but she just so happened to have fallen in love with cooking recently. “Then, tell her not to enter the kitchen!"

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2425-“I can't do anything about it." Luke's expression was dull, indicating that he could not care less about Rain's hobbies.

She was doing it for fun after work, and it would not affect her efficiency at work at all.

Gale grimaced. Comparison was indeed the thief of joy.

Both were women, yet Luca made delicious food, whereas Rain's cooking would require him to get gastric lavage.

The point was that every time Rain cooked, she would let him try first, and he would get a punch in the face if he refused.

He had to be a gentleman, so he had no choice but to eat those unappetizing dishes after taking a beating.

Gale felt bitter. If not for the fact that he had known Rain for so many years and she had never tried to hurt him, he would suspect that Rain was trying to poison him.

"Boss..." Gale looked at him pitifully.

Rain obeyed Luke the most. If he asked her not to cook, she would listen to him.

"You have your own house. If you don't want to be treated as a lab rat by Rain, you can move back home." Luke took a bite of macaroni and thought about how lucky he was.

Luca made amazing food that not just anyone had the chance to try.

"Boss, we were in the same squad on the island, so we're used to being together. She lives on the third floor and I live on the second, so we don't disturb each other. It's more convenient when we're working

as well," said Gale.

Luke had given them a mansion each, but all this while, he had been living at Rain's place.

"Your mansion is right next door." Luke coldly looked up, then gave Luca another piece of bread.

"Thank you." Luca ate the bread while listening to their conversation.

"Fine. It looks like I have to deal with it myself. After this meal, I have to go prepare some more Pepto- Bismol and Smecta." Gale pouted.

Luca smiled after his statement.

Rain was never interested in cooking. Why had she suddenly taken interest in it? Perhaps.

She looked at Gale, then at Luke.

Men were careless, and only women know each other the best. Rain must have developed feelings for someone. Otherwise, why would she suddenly experiment with cooking?

Women learned how to cook to make a meal for the man they loved most.

Who did Rain want to cook for?

After eating, the children left the dining room.

Without the children around, Luke slowly opened his mouth to ask, “Did you investigate the matter I asked you to yesterday?"

Gale looked at him and put on a puzzled face on purpose. "Boss, who did you ask me to investigate?"

"Do you want to eat Rain's food every day?" Luke asked with a sullen face. If he gave Rain less work, she would have more time to cook.

Gale hurriedly shook his head and picked up his phone to send the information he had found to Luke.

"Boss, although you didn't order me to, I knew what to do. This is Sophian Thomas' information." After confirming that the message had been successfully sent, Gale put down his phone and continued eating breakfast.

Sophian?

Luca was puzzled. That was the woman in Allison's residence?

Luke looked through the information. There was nothing that stood out, so he frowned and said, "That's it?"

"Boss, not everyone who approaches you and Ms. Tanner comes from a strong background. That woman is just an ordinary person who wishes to become rich overnight. Of course, as to why Ms. Tanner would cooperate with her, you'll have to ask her that yourself..." said Gale.

Sophian was just an average woman. If not for plastic surgery, no one would even notice her walking in the street. She would just be a normal passerby.

If she had not gone to Korea for plastic surgery, no one would do a double-take at her.

Luke pursed his lips.

They raised Luca's curiosity. Who was Sophian? What identity did she have that made Allison support her?

The women that Allison introduced to Luke before were either born with silver spoons or children of the political elite.

If Sophian was as average as they said and led an ordinary life, why would Allison do that?

If things did not go according to their plan, she would be implicated too.

"Take a look." Luke handed the phone to Luca for her to see Sophian's profile.

"Okay." Luca took the phone and roughly looked through Sophian's information.

Gale was really something.

He dug up photos of Sophian before her plastic surgery and even put together before and after photos, which showed a stark contrast.

He showed her no mercy.

Luca calmly handed the phone back to Luke. "Ms. Tanner must have something else in mind for her to do that."

She speculated that Allison wanted to use this woman to control Luke.

However, she was doomed to fail.

Luke was not a playboy who would be with just any woman, and he would not easily be controlled by a woman either...

Even Luca was aware of this fact, but as his mother, Allison knew nothing. She guessed that the mother and son had grown further apart these few years, so Allison did not understand Luke.

Luke took the phone back and saw that Luca was calm without any sign of jealousy.

He said, “After breakfast, why don't you follow me there?"

"There?" Luca looked at him in surprise.

He was looking at her when he spoke, so he obviously said it to her.

Luke nodded. "Yes."

"Mr. Crawford, I don't think it's appropriate for me to go." Luca was hesitant as she disliked Allison.

She used to be respectful toward Allison as she was Luke's mother.

However, she refused to face Allison now because of her bad personality.

"There's nothing inappropriate about it. I just want an explanation," said Luke.

Gale could not help but ask, "Boss, what if she won't admit that it has something to do with her?"

Luke frowned as it was also a possibility.

Allison loved running away from her responsibilities, after all.

Luke said coldly, "If she won't admit it, she'll have to suffer the consequences."

Luca wanted to stay something but stopped.

Suffer the consequences?

What was Luke going to do?

Gale said, "But she's your mother. You can't take revenge on her..."

Luke looked at him. "You, follow me there too."

"Me? What for?" Gale pointed at himself with a stunned expression as he was not interested in getting involved in a family war.

"You're a witness, so you're coming with me." Luke finished the last of his macaroni and pulled out a tissue to wipe his mouth elegantly.

Gale frowned and said, " Boss, can I not go?"

"No." Luke rejected him coolly.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2426-Luca furrowed her brows as she was not the only one who was not willing to go. Gale refused to go as well.

“Mr. Crawford, if all of us go, what about the children at home?" she asked. There would be many guests at Crawford Manor as it was the new year, so Luke would not send the kids there.

He had a hard time convincing those people not to visit his place, so he would not send the children back there to suffer.

"Don't worry, Aunt Neile will come over to work later," said Luke.

"Aunt Neile? Isn't she coming back to work next week?" Luca was surprised.

"Her son and daughter-in-law took their children on a trip but she didn't go as she was tired, so she said she can come work anytime," said Luke. He had arranged for Aunt Neile to come back to work this morning.

Either way, he would still have to make a trip to Allison's place.

"In that case..." Luca knew that she had no more excuses to stay at home.

The children had someone to watch over them, and no one could change Luke's mind once he had made up his mind.

However, Luke was bringing her to face Allison.

Luca sighed internally.

Half an hour later, Aunt Neile showed up at the mansion on time.

The three children were taken by surprise, and they went up to her to wish her a happy new year while Aunt Neile smiled from ear to ear.

Luca had put on her coat and was looking at Aunt Neile in the living room. She did not know how long it would take for Luke to settle everything, so she informed her, "Aunt Neile, there are still some leftover groceries in the fridge, so you don't need to go to the supermarket."

"Okay, Ms. Craw. Don't worry. You can go get your things done," Aunt Neile nodded and said cheerfully.

Luca nodded and left with Luke.

Gale sat in the driver's seat and was in charge of driving. She and Luke sat in the backseat.

"Let's go," said Luke. He still insisted on going to Allison's place even though he knew that both of them were unwilling to go.

"Okay, Boss." Gale nodded and drove off.

Luca looked at the scenery outside the car window and felt a little anxious.

In a way, him taking her to see Allison was the same as announcing their relationship...

If Abel knew about it, he might speed up his plan.

Abel had failed to take Luke down twice. What would he do next?

Luca could not help but worry.

“What are you thinking?" Luke noticed her silence and frown, which meant that something was off.

“Nothing. I'm just a little confused as to why Ms. Tanner would do that.." Luca gave an excuse.

Luke did not say anything as what Allison did was indeed outrageous, but she did it to help him.

Even so, he had no intention of letting her off the hook.

If he did not teach her a lesson right now, she would just be more brazen with her tactics in the future.

Adults were like children. They had to be educated and punished when they did something wrong.

It was just that the punishment for adults would be way crueler.

After a while, the car arrived at the gate of the mansion.

After Gale parked the car, he entered the password on the door, but it showed that it was the wrong password.

Gale walked to the car window and said to Luke, "Boss, I can't open the door. The password is wrong."

Luke pushed the door open and got out. He entered the password once more with a frown.

The password he entered was incorrect too.

"Boss, maybe they changed the password," said Gale. Perhaps Allison was afraid that Luke would come to look for her, so she changed the password.

"Yeah," said Luke before he opened the fingerprint lock on the side.

Allison was guilty, which was why she was afraid that he would show up at the door and cause her trouble. However, what she did not know was that after she went to jail, the mansion fell into his hands. At that time, he registered his fingerprint on the lock for convenience's sake.

As long as Allison did not erase it, he would be able to enter.

Sure enough, as soon as it scanned his fingerprint, an unlocking sound was heard and the door opened.

Gale gasped, "Boss, I didn't know you still had something up your sleeve."

"This was originally a fingerprint lock," Luke said blandly. After Allison was sent to prison, he had someone change the lock to prevent those messy friends of Allison's from living there.

When changing the locks, Jason had reminded him to register his fingerprint at the mansion.

He never thought that it would come in handy now.

Gale gave him a big thumbs up before pushing the door open. "Boss, this way."

Luke turned around to look at Luca.

When she saw the door open, she got out of the car.

"Come on." Luke walked over and held her hand before walking into the mansion together.

Gale locked the car and followed behind them. He looked at them and thought that if not for the fact that they were trying to get back at Allison right now, it seemed like they were really in love.

He shook his head in disbelief as he had somehow become the third wheel once again.

In the living room.

Allison was drinking the beautifying tea that Sophian had made her.

The maid hurriedly came and reported, “Madam Allison, Master Luke is here."

“What?" Allison put down her teacup in panic and looked toward the door, but Luke was not there. “Where is he now?"

“The alarm just rang, so they should be in the garden right now," said the maid. She did not follow up on yesterday's events. All she knew was that Allison hastily had her change the lock password.

“Didn't I change the password? How does he know the new password? Did you open the door for him or tell him the password?" Allison questioned.

She changed the password to keep Luke from taking his revenge on her.

The maid shook her head repeatedly. “I didn't, Madam Allison. Young Master Luke didn't even ring the doorbell. If the alarm hadn't shown that someone had come in, I wouldn't have known."

Allison grew suspicious. “If he doesn't know the password and you didn't open the door for him, how did he get in?"

“Madam Allison, I have no idea..." The maid grew panicky from her questions. She wanted to know how Luke got in too.

Allison would certainly not have told him the new password, and Sophian would not be that foolish.

If he came with a locksmith, then the alarm would not show that someone had come in. It would send a police report instead.

Sophian came downstairs with the mask she prepared and said in a hurry, “Ms. Allison, I've just mixed a hydrating mask. Do you want to try it?"

Allison looked gloomy. She looked at Sophian who was still in high spirits and said, “Try what? Luke is here."

“Lu—Mr. Crawford is here?" The smile on Sophian's face faded as she took a step back.

According to their agreement yesterday, if Luke were to come and stir up trouble, she would take all the blame.

Sophian was panicking. novelbin

“Ms. Allison, you can't let him in." She immediately pleaded with Allison for help.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2427-Allison rolled her eyes at her. “He already came in."

Sophina felt like there was thunder and lightning above her head. She had only one thought—she was doomed...

Allison would certainly not protect her. "Ms. Allison, didn't we change the password? How did he get in.."

Before Allison could even answer her, Luke's voice came from outside the door. "Fingerprint lock."

Clang! Sophian was so frightened that the bowl in her hands fell to the floor, and white mask liquid spilled all over, staining her long skirt.

Luke pushed the door open and walked in while holding Luca's hand.

He even had Gale behind him.

Allison looked toward the door and noticed that they were holding hands, so she looked Luca up and down.

Was this the woman Susan was talking about?

The reason why Allison knew that Luke had another woman was that Susan had mentioned it while quarreling with her. She accused Luke of being ungrateful like her.

That was how she found out.

Allison frowned and asked, "You came in with the fingerprint lock?"

"I was the one who changed the door lock, so my fingerprint is in the record," Luke said unhurriedly. He felt that Luca's hands were ice-cold, so he interlocked his fingers with hers to give her warmth.

Allison was not aware that his fingerprint was in the record, so she did not erase it. She could not help but take a step back after her eyes met his deathly stare.

"Master Luke, Ms. Craw, have a seat. I'll make you tea." The maid was transferred here from Crawford Manor, so she knew Luca.

"No need. I'll leave once I settle things," said Luke.

The maid froze. She felt unsafe as if the place was filled with the fumes of gunpowder, so she hastily said, "Then, I'll be in the kitchen."

After saying that, she immediately retreated.

Sophian looked at Luke shamefully. She had noticed the woman beside him from the moment he came in.

She worked in a plastic surgery agency, so it was only natural for her to form an opinion on someone else's appearance. The woman in front of her was very pretty and not the innocent type that Allison described but the elegant and charming type that all men would go crazy for.

She was probably the woman Allison mentioned that Luke was cheating with.

Allison snorted as she recognized Luca as the woman who gave her medical consultation in prison. “So this is the woman. I always thought that there was something between you two, but I didn't expect her to be able to make you abandon Bianca and climb into her bed."

"Watch your mouth." Luke scowled at her.

Allison looked nothing like a noblewoman. Even her language toward him was vicious and mocking.

Luke had enough of it.

"What? Did I say something wrong? I'm telling the truth. Don't you have an unspeakable relationship with her? When Susan was mocking me, I didn't believe it at first. I didn't expect you to cheat, but you're just like your father. It seems like one woman isn't enough to satisfy you. I'm disappointed in you, Luke." Allison posed as a mother to lecture Luke.

Luca listened to her mockery, and her brows furrowed.

If Luke had really cheated, anyone would have the right to accuse him except for her. Allison was the least qualified to do so...

Gale could not listen any longer, so he said, "Ms. Tanner, didn't you drug the boss yesterday? Were you trying to make that girl boss' woman? Now that the plan didn't work, you're accusing him of infidelity? You're putting up too much of a show."

Sophian lowered her head from guilt and dared not say a word after he exposed them.

She was worried that Allison would blame her once she spoke.

"What nonsense is this? Luke was drunk yesterday." Allison glared at Gale as she wanted to rip his mouth apart. "Who are you anyway? How dare you speak like that when you're just a chauffeur? Believe it or not, I'll fire you."

"He's my savior," Luke said coldly.

He was right. If not for Gale and the others, he would not have survived on the Island of Despair.

Allison snorted. "Savior, my *ss. He's just a lousy chauffeur."

Gale clenched his fist. If she were not Luke's mother, he would have thrown a punch at her by now.

"Ms. Tanner, don't try to change the topic. The boss came here today to ask why you drugged him yesterday. Did you really think that boss would fall for those plastic-faced women after taking a drug like that?"

Sophian took another step back after his mocking words.

"Drug him? I've told you, he was drunk yesterday!" Allison refused to admit anything.

"I took the boss to the hospital for a blood test, Ms. Tanner. Do you need me to shove the report in your face before you're willing to admit it?" Gale continued to deceive her.

Allison was Luke's mother, so he had to be the one to do the questioning.

Otherwise, it was likely that Allison would make Luke a subject of ridicule.

Allison did not think that he would go for a check-up. Now that her plan fell through, she had no choice but to look to Sophian. "Wasn't he drunk? Sophian, what's going on here?!"

Sophian closed her eyes in despair and dared not look at Luke.

“Ms. Allison, I don't know..."

“What do you mean you don't know when you were the one who prepared everything? I have security cameras in my house. Do you want me to go through the footage?" Allison asked forcefully as she had to push the blame onto Sophian to save herself.

“I. I was wrong." Sophian knew that she had no way of escaping, so she kneeled on the floor and cried, “Mr, Crawford, it's my fault. I like you too much and want to become your woman, so I. I'm sorry, it's all my fault. Please forgive me."

“It's all your fault?" Luke frowned and looked at Allison as he refused to believe it

Sophian would not be foolish enough to commit such a thing without her permission as it was Allison's home, not a hotel.

Even if she was the one who drugged him, she would need Allison's permission before she could do it. novelbin

“Yes, it's all me. Don't blame Ms. Allison.." Sophian cried, and her makeup melted from the tears.

“Huh.." Luke looked at Allison.

Allison knew that he was not convinced, so she took out her so-called evidence. “Why are you looking at me like that? This has nothing to do with me. I'm your mother. Do you think I would hurt you and lie to you like that? If you don't believe me, you can check the surveillance cameras yourself. Won't it be obvious then?"

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2428-Luke looked indifferently at Allison. There was no trace of affection. It was as if he was looking at a stranger.

He knew that Allison said that to wash her hands off the matter.

However, she brought Sophian back, and she would not dare to do anything without Allison's permission.

"Since you say that, you're telling me that she did it of her own volition?" Luke gave Allison another chance to admit to what she did although he knew that she would never.

"I didn't do it. I thought you were just drunk last night." Allison crossed her hands in front of her chest to try to make herself look more assertive.

Luke's gaze turned cold, and he did not bother to look at Sophian. "Gale."

"Boss, what do you need?" Gale stepped forward and knew that he was about to be given instructions.

He knew that Luke would not have brought him along for no reason.

"Send her to the police station," Luke said.

Allison frowned. ‘Why is he involving the police?'

Sophian was taken aback. She staggered and uttered, "Mr. Crawford, I drugged you, but you didn't lose anything. Why do you want to send me to the police station?"

Allison was a little flustered and stood in front of Sophian. If Luke sent Sophian to the police station, she might be dragged through the mud. "What are you doing? She gave you some drugs and you want

to send her to the police station? What are you going to tell the police? Sophian didn't do anything to you."

"Possession of drugs. The police will detain and investigate you for it," Luke said. His right hand still held Luca's tightly.

"Luke, are you crazy? It's not a big deal. The drug can be found in any bar. The police won't be bothered even if you go to them," Allison said. She knew that he was using Sophian to make a point, but she still opted to protect Sophian.

"The police will find out if it's illegal. My blood sample is still in the hospital." Luke threatened.

He had to teach Allison a lesson so that she would stop causing trouble. He wanted to start the new year peacefully before sending her back to Korea.

"Mr. Crawford, please don't involve the police. I promise you that the drug you consumed yesterday isn't illegal. It won't have any side effects. I'm sorry, please give me a chance. I won't bother you ever again." Sophian was at a loss. She was worried sick that Luke would really send her to the police station.

If she had a criminal record, her visa to South Korea may not be approved.

She did not succeed in hooking up with Luke, so she had to go back and work to pay back the money she owed for the plastic surgery she did.

"Take her." Luke ignored her plea for mercy and gave Gale an order.

Gale responded and stepped forward.

Allison glared at Gale viciously, the folds on her face deepening. "Who dares to take her away in front of me?"

"You're protecting her?" Luke stared at Allison.

She must be guilty if she insisted on siding with an outsider.

He remembered that Allison had never protected him for as long as he could remember. Luke could not help but feel amused when he saw how she acted.

"I brought her from South Korea so, of course, I have to protect her. She's a poor girl who finally visited her hometown for the new year. How could you send her to the police station? The drug isn't illegal, and you look perfectly fine. Since she apologized, let it go," Allison said. She was scared that she would be dragged into the mire if she did not help Sophian.

"Are you sure you want to protect her?" Luke asked once more as a warning.

"Yes, it was just a spiked drink. It can't kill anyone." Allison crossed her hands in disdain.

Luca could not believe what he just heard.

Allison wanted to let the matter slide just because Luke looked fine? He was her son! How could she defend a random stranger who hurt him?

With a mother like Allison, it was no wonder why Luke acted so cold.

"I hope you won't regret siding with her." Luke looked at her coldly with a hint of warning in his eyes.

"Gale, let's go."

"Boss, you no longer want to send her to the police station?" Gale wanted the drama to go on.

"Who would dare?!" Allison stared at Gale.

Gale shrugged indifferently. He did not care. He simply turned around and walked behind Luke.

Sophian took a step forward from behind Allison, her resentful eyes watching Luke leave.

'The woman beside him is gorgeous, but I'm not too bad myself... Men usually wouldn't mind having many women around them. Why did Luke reject me? Doesn't he like how I look?'

Sophian was cursing at Luca in her heart.

After Luke and Luca left, Allison breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at the mask liquid spilled on the floor. It was slightly dried due to the room temperature. "Hurry up and clean up the floor!"

"Ms. Allison..." Sophian teared up because she was scared and unwilling.

"Why do you look like that? You're alright. You don't have to worry that someone will send you to the police station," Allison said. She felt suppressed by Luke's aura just now and needed to sit down to take a breather.

"Ms. Allison, thank you." Sophian walked over to her and massaged her neck.

"I wouldn't have helped you if I weren't worried that you'd drag me through the mud if you were sent to the police station. This didn't work out because of your hesitation." Allison complained about Sophian for the same few things.

Sophian was dissatisfied. She felt as though she was not the one to blame.

She would never have done such a thing if it were not for Allison's encouragement. Even if she helped him upstairs, the driver would still find Luke and take him away.

From the very beginning, Luke had his guard up. They would never have succeeded.

Nevertheless, Allison blamed it all on her...

"Why are you so quiet? Are you angry?" Allison raised her head slightly and tried to look at Sophian's expression.

‘Let's see if she dares to get angry at me!'

Luke's expression when he left was ugly. As his mother, she knew that there would be more to this.

Allison was not sure what else he would do.

However, at least Sophian did not have to go to the police station.

"No, Ms. Allison. Thank you for keeping me. Mr. Crawford is fuming at us. Why don't we go back to Korea first?" Sophian was nervous when she thought of how Luke had looked at her before he left.

He might not let go of the matter easily.

Sophian was worried that Luke would take revenge on her, so she wanted to go back to Korea.

‘A busy man like Luke wouldn't travel all the way to Korea to mess with me... right?'

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2429-Allison picked up the nail file on the coffee table and filed her nails. She rolled her eyes when she heard what Sophian said.

"New Year holidays aren't over yet. Why are you rushing to go back?"

"I'm worried that Mr. Crawford will retaliate against me..." Sophian had no choice but to express her worries.

"If I can save you once, I can save you the second time. You weren't sent to the police station today, and you won't be sent to the police station any time soon. The living conditions in A City are much better than in South Korea. I don't want to go back so soon." Allison did not intend to give up celebrating the new year in A City.

Moreover, she had a much more comfortable life here than abroad as she had a maid to take care of her.

Since Allison was unwilling to return to Korea, Sophian had to give up the idea as she had no extra money to buy the expensive international airline ticket.

Allison touched her dry face and commanded Sophian, "Go and prepare a mask for me. My skin feels dry after staying in the heating room for too long."

"Okay, Ms. Allison. Give me a moment." Sophian stopped massaging her, pulled out a few tissues, picked up the bowl on the floor, and wiped the semi-solidified mask liquid.

Sophian did not care if it was clean and walked upstairs with the bowl in hand.

On the other hand.

Luke left the villa with Luca.

Luca glanced back the moment the villa door closed.

"What are you looking at?" Luke noticed her actions.

Luca shook her head and replied, "It's nothing. I just don't think she looks like your mother."

"She changed a long time ago," Luke said.

Gale opened the backseat door and asked, "Boss, do you want to go back now?"

"Mm." Luke protected Luca's forehead and asked her to get in the car before he got in from the other side of the car.

After the two got into the car, Gale started the drive back.

Luke took out his phone and called the butler.

"Master Luke, what can I do for you?" the butler asked after the call was connected.

Luke had put his phone on loudspeaker, so Luca could hear the butler. She looked at him, confused.

She felt that what he was about to say had something to do with Allison.

"Have the maid in Allison's villa move back to Crawford Manor," Luke said.

"Master Luke, is there something wrong with the maid serving Madam Allison?" the butler asked.

He did not question Luke as Allison was notoriously difficult to serve.

When Luke was in an accident, Allison bought the villa and Old Master Crawford assigned her two maids.

In the end, both maids were returned to Crawford Manor because Allison felt that their service was unprofessional.

Both maids were professionally trained and had worked at Crawford Manor for many years. No one had ever complained about them.

The maids told them that they could not serve Allison and that they would resign and find another workplace if they could not return to Crawford Manor.

The maids went back to work at Crawford Manor, and Allison's reputation for being difficult also spread like wildfire.

He had to ask several maids before he found one who was willing to serve Allison.

"The maid is great, but Allison doesn't need one." Luke reached out and grabbed Luca's hand.

After being outside for a while, her hands, which were previously warmed by him, had turned cold once more.

Luke spread out his palm and tucked her hand into it.

"Okay, I get it, Master Luke. I'll call the maid now." The butler knew something must have happened with Allison.

Nevertheless, he was not in the position to ask Luke what was going on.

"Have the maid keep it to herself for now," Luke said.

"Okay, I know what to do." After he said that, the butler was even more sure that Luke was having the maid go back to Crawford Manor because Allison had pissed him off.

She asked for it.

The butler did not know what was going on, but he knew that nothing could go wrong if he listened to Luke. novelbin

After Luke ended the call, Luca asked softly, "Mr. Crawford, Ms. Tanner will be mad if you remove the maid. Aren't you worried that she'll harass you?"

"She won't be able to find me," Luke said. He was certain that Allison did not know where he lived.

"However, she could go to Crawford Manor and disturb Old Master Crawford," Luca said. That was the worse option.

Allison was a woman who would do such a thing.

She would do anything for money and comfortable life.

"She won't dare. If she dares, Sophian will go to jail." A hint of viciousness flashed through Luke's eyes.

If Allison wanted to protect Sophian, she would have to sacrifice her comfortable life in A City.

She would not have a maid to serve her nor a chauffeur to pick her up, but she would not starve to death. After all, he had already transferred her monthly expenses into her account.

Luke picked up his phone and informed Lliam that he would no longer be responsible for driving Allison around.

Gale was driving and could not help but laugh. "Boss, you're so wise. Because of what went down, she doesn't dare to let Sophian talk to the police. She knows that things will go down if she does."

Luca pursed her lips. 'Can this matter with Sophian stop Allison?'

She was worried that Allison would get upset and turn Crawford Manor upside down...

Allison soon discovered that the maid had left.

The maid said that she was going to the supermarket to buy groceries but did not come back even after two hours.

Allison asked Sophian to call the maid.

Sophian picked up the landline and dialed the maid's number, but the call was not connected. There was a cold female voice who said that the caller was on the phone and for her to call again later.

"Ms. Allison, the call didn't get through.” She turned around and told Allison, who was eating fruit.

"Dial again." Allison did not take her eyes off the TV. "Dial until she answers. I'm starving!"

"Okay." Sophian called the number back, but it still did not go through.

She reluctantly put down the handset, picked up her phone, and called the maid.

It was still the same.

Sophian said, "Ms. Allison, the maid is still on a call. Should I wait five minutes and call again?"

"Mm." Allison was not too bothered.

Five minutes later, Sophian picked up the phone and called the maid again. It still did not go through. She frowned and asked Allison, "Ms. Allison, can I borrow your phone?"

"What for?" Allison turned around to look at her, but she did not hand her the phone immediately.

"She's still on the phone. I think the maid blocked my number," Sophian said. She guessed that the maid was not happy with her, so she deliberately blocked her number.

After all, she was not one of the Crawfords and had even spiked Luke's drink.

Luke almost blamed the maid, so it was possible that she would block Sophian.

"How troublesome! How dare she block you..." Allison's face had minor changes every day, so she could not use the face ID to unlock her phone. She took out a tissue, wiped her fingers, and pressed her thumb on the fingerprint sensor.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2430-Allison handed the phone to Sophian after she unlocked it.

Sophian took it and dialed the maid's number.

The call did not get through...

Sophian felt awkward and handed the phone back to Allison.

"What's wrong?" Allison frowned when she saw Sophian's expression.

"Ms. Allison, your number seems to have been blocked too,” Sophian said cautiously. The phone in her hand was like a hot potato. Allison did not take it, so she put it on the sofa.

"I got blocked too? How is that possible?!" Allison could not believe it. She wiped her hands on a tissue, picked up her phone, and called the maid.

She finally believed that she was blocked when she heard a mechanical female voice.

Sophian did not speak. She was waiting for Allison's next order.

Allison called the butler.

The butler did not block her number, so he answered. "Madam Allison, good afternoon."

"What happened to the maid you sent over? Did she block me? Does she not want her job anymore?" Allison was frustrated.

"Master Luke asked the maid to go back to Crawford Manor. She won't be going to your villa anymore from now on." When the butler explained the situation to her, he made it clear that it was Luke's decision.

He did not have the power to make decisions as such, so he did not attempt to hide that Luke was the one who did it.

Allison looked at Sophian awkwardly.

"How could he do this to me? Wasn't that maid assigned to me?" she shouted. She knew that her life would be a mess if she was without a maid.

"You'd better ask Master Luke about this. We're only acting as per his instructions." The butler was distressed by her yelling and pulled the phone away from his ear.

Allison knew why Luke did that. It was because she was protecting Sophian at all costs.

However, how could a son punish his mother?! novelbin

Allison acted like a shrew. She was no longer the elegant lady she pretended to be. "I don't care! I'm Madam Crawford, the daughter-in-law of Old Master Crawford. You have to arrange a maid for me." "Master Luke said that if you need a maid, you can hire one yourself. The maids from Crawford Manor are no longer available to you," the butler said.

Allison clenched her fist and nearly threw her phone when she heard the butler relay Luke's words.

Her chest rose and fell. She was breathing hard to manage her emotions. "Do you think I won't go to Old Master Crawford?"

The butler knew she would say that, so he added, "Master Luke also said that if you come back to Crawford Manor, he'll go to Old Master Crawford and tell him everything that you and Ms. Thomas did. The police will be notified to arrest her as well... He has evidence in his hand."

Sophian heard that and turned pale in an instant.

Luke did not want to let her go!

"How dare he?!" Allison got even angrier, but the feeling of powerlessness in her heart was growing.

She knew Luke's temperament. There was nothing he was afraid of.

If Old Master Crawford knew she had let a woman seduce Luke, he would flip on the spot.

"Madam Allison, don't try to mess with Master Luke. I'm sorry, but Old Master Crawford is asking for me. I have to hang up now." The butler hung up Allison's call without hesitation.

He had fully relayed Luke's message. If he did not hang up, he would have to endure Allison's wrath.

The butler was not willing to bear that since he did not cause the ordeal.

Allison wanted to smash things in anger.

Sophian quickly grabbed her hand when she saw that Allison was about to throw her phone. "Ms.

Allison, don't be angry. It'll be difficult to get a new phone if you break it now."

Many shopping malls were closed for the New Year, including mobile phone stores.

They would then have to buy it online, and since the courier service was also on holiday, they would have to wait quite a while for the delivery to arrive.

Allison slammed her phone on the coffee table and shouted, "How dare he..."

"Ms. Allison, calm down." Sophian pursed her lips. She was unsure of what to say.

She did not dare to speak on behalf of Luke nor claim that she was innocent. After all, Allison would find some way to blame her anyway.

Sophian put her hands on her shoulders and wanted to give her a massage to soothe her.

Allison shrugged and shook her hands off.

Sophian did not dare to let out a breath. She looked at Allison with her teary eyes and said, "Ms. Allison, are you hungry? I'll cook for you."

"I'm so angry that I feel full now!" Allison stood up, her face contorting with rage.

Sophian did not dare to say another word.

Allison paced around in anger and shouted, "He asked me to hire a maid myself?! Where can I get a maid now? He's making it impossible for me to live in A City!"

Sophian still did not dare to say anything. If it were someone else, they would still be able to live without a maid.

However, it might not be the case for Allison.

She was used to being pampered. Even in Korea, Allison had hired a senior nurse who could speak her language even when she had Sophian and the translator taking turns to take care of her.

She did not know how to do anything. When she wanted to eat a piece of fruit, she had to ask others to wash it before she would eat it.

Allison did not even know how to peel fruits.

"Are you dumb? Why are you keeping quiet?" Allison put her hands on her hips. Her face was flushed because she was angry.

"Ms. Allison, you have me," Sophian said.

"No, I can't let this go." Allison paced back and forth before she picked up the phone and called Lliam.

The call could not get through. It was still the cold female voice that greeted her.

"Damn it." Allison did not call again because it was pointless. She knew that Lliam had blocked her.

Sophian was about to speak when Allison said, "Come on, put on your coat. Let's get a taxi."

"Ms. Allison, where are we going?" Sophian picked up the new coat hanging at the entrance and handed it to Allison.

After Allison put on her coat, she said, "We're going to find Luke."

She would not be so stupid as to go to Old Master Crawford, so she could only go to Luke.

She already knew where Luke lived.

"Ms. Allison, Mr. Crawford just left not long ago. Are you sure you want to look for him now?" Sophian grimaced. She was reluctant to go.

She was screwed if Luke continued to throw his temper and blame her.

"Why? What are you afraid of when I'm here next to you? Put on your coat," Allison said. She felt fortunate that she had a backup plan.

After Luke transferred her the living expenses for that month, she transferred them to a private account that Luke did not know about.

She had money temporarily, and it was money that Luke could not touch.

Sophian had no choice but to slowly put on her coat.

Even so, it did not stop Allison's determination to find Luke.

The two left the villa and walked for a while before they got to the main road.

It was New Year, and they were in the residential area. Everyone had a car, so there were no taxis passing by.
