Ch. 2561..2570

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2561-Luca was startled for a moment. She did not expect Luke to be so straightforward.

It took Luca a few seconds to come back to her senses. After she tried to put her thoughts into words, she said, “I realized Ms. Rayne's hands were cold today. It's unusual for her hands to be freezing in a warm space. I asked her to make an appointment for a medical examination tomorrow. I'd like to know the results of her medical examination."

Luke nodded after he heard what Luca said. "Sure. I'll ask the doctor working at the health clinic to send a copy of the report to your email."

"Okay." Luca paused for a moment. "I'll help her improve her health if there's something wrong with her."

"She'll be grateful if you can help her with that," said Luke. The doctor would always inform him of their health condition after their medical examination.

Wanda had always had issues with her health. Sometimes, she had to take some medicine to nurse her health.

The issues recurred on and off again. It had been three years since.

Luca replied in a soft voice. She planned to wait until the medical report was released before deciding if it was necessary to help Wanda nurse her health.

Luke drove back home.

Aunt Neile had gotten off work by the time Luke and Luca arrived home. The three kids immediately surrounded the two of them.

"Daddy, Ms. Luca, both of you went to Grandpa Rayne's place for dinner. How could you not bring us along with you? That's too much!" Tommy stood with arms akimbo and pouted, expressing his dissatisfaction.

Luke shot a cold glance at his son.

There was no way Tommy's angry protest could work on him.

"Your Grandpa Rayne needs some rest. You'll make a lot of noise if you go over to his place," said Luke.

Tommy widened his eyes. He noticed that his daddy mentioned only him instead of all the children.

His daddy was saying that he was the noisiest kid.

"Daddy, how am I noisy? I'm a good boy. I can massage Grandpa Rayne's legs and shoulders for him. Besides, Grandpa Rayne must have missed me since it has been a while since he saw me." Tommy swung his little fists and protested.

Luke took off his coat. He showed no expression toward his son's protest and replied, "Let's see how it goes."

"What does that mean?" Tommy glanced at Lanie and Rainie. They were smiling while watching him fool around.

"I'll take you there next time." Luke glanced at the time. It was already past nine. He turned to look at the three kids and said, "It's getting late. Aren't you going to clean yourselves up and go to bed yet?"

"Okay, Daddy," Lanie suddenly spoke. He held Rainie's hand and made their way up the stairs.

Tommy stared at Lanie and Rainie, who were going upstairs. Then, he turned to look at Luke, "Daddy, pinky promise."

"Huh?" Luke raised his brows. Was this little kid afraid that he would not keep his word?

"Pinky promise. You promised me that you'll bring me there next time." Tommy stood on tiptoes and lifted his little thumb.

Luke did not know what to do with Tommy. He had no choice but to lock his pinky finger with Tommy's.

"Pinky promise, cross my heart and hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye." Tommy made a pinky promise with Luke happily. Then, he let go of Luke's finger and headed upstairs.

Luke watched Tommy slip his way up the stairs from behind and shook his head helplessly. Then, he turned to look at Luca, "I wonder where he learned that from."

Adults could not seem to understand the children's world.

Luca smiled and replied, "Weren't we like that too when we were young back then? Although times have changed, some things never change. He probably learned it at school."

"I never did that when I was young." Luke raised his brows, put his arms around Luca, and walked into the house.

Luca asked in surprise, "You didn't?"

"Grandpa told me that these things are just deceitful tricks. In the adult world, one can break one's promise and agreement even after one has signed a contract. Although one has to pay the price, there are no such promises that can be kept forever," said Luke.

Luke had understood this since he was young.

Old Master Crawford was determined to make him his successor. Luke had already known that these things that only children would believe in could not be trusted since he was young.

Luca nodded and secretly let out a sigh. Luke never had a proper childhood.

When an adult said such a cruel thing to children, the children would only give the adult a confused look. The children would have no idea what the adult was talking about and what it meant.

However, Luke had already understood these complicated thoughts when he was still young.

Hence, the children's little tricks did not make any sense to him.

Even if the child who played the trick was his own son.

Luke would not be able to understand it either. He even wanted his children to understand what he had learned since he was a child.

Sure enough, children raised by a father were different from others.

Lanie and Rainie were more mature than the other kids who were of the same age. It was partly because Luca was not there by their side when they were young back then.

They lacked a mother's love and care.

However, things were different for Tommy. At least, Luca got to stay by his side for a few years. That was why he still had the innocence and the mind of a child.

Luke and Luca came to the second floor.

Luke gently ran his fingers through Luca's hair when he noticed how quiet Luca was. He asked, “What's on your mind?"

"Your childhood," Luca was so lost in thoughts that she blurted out what she had on her mind. She immediately realized what she said and explained, "I didn't mean that."

"It's true that I didn't have a childhood," replied Luke. He spent a few years living in the orphanage when he was young back then.

After that, Luke was taken back to the Crawford family where he started living his life as the young master of the Crawford family which everyone was envious of. However, Susan was not pregnant at that time. That was why Luke was trained to be Old Master Crawford's successor.

He was destined to not have a childhood in order to become a qualified successor.

When the other children were having fun and playing around, Luke had to learn all kinds of things, such as calligraphy and piano. Other than that, he had to excel in his studies too.

After Louis was born, Allison felt intimidated. Allison focused on training Luke to make him even better and to please Old Master Crawford.

However, instead of training Luke properly, Allison was just very strict with him and trained him based on Old Master Crawford's standards.

Hence, Luke had no idea about the cartoon shows that the children his age talked about. However, he was much better than the others when it came to calligraphy and piano.

Luke also read more books than any other child.

He became a tool for Allison to remain in the Crawford family, and he became something that made her look good too.

Luca could not help but hold Luke's hand tight when she listened to him.

Luke was about to say something, but his phone rang.

After Luke answered the call, he spoke in French with the person on the other end of the line for a while. Then, he said to Luca, "I have to attend a video conference now."

"Okay." Luca nodded. After she watched Luke enter the bedroom opposite them and close the door behind him, only then did Luca turn around and walk into her bedroom. She picked up her clothes and entered the bathroom to wash away the tiredness.

After taking a shower, Luca walked out of the bedroom. However, she was not planning to disturb Luke. Instead, she pushed the bedroom door of the three kids to check if they had gone to bed. She would help them with their blankets as well.

Luca returned to her bedroom door after that. She stared at Luke's bedroom.

The door was left ajar. Luca could hear Luke's deep voice coming out from the room once in a while. Luke was speaking in French. It seemed like he was handling some matters related to the subsidiary companies abroad.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2562-Luca did not disturb him. She turned around and returned to her bedroom.

Luca sat on the edge of the bed. She picked up a book left on the bedside table and began reading.

The book was placed here by Luke. It was a book written in English. The contents of the book were about the current trends in architecture.

Luca was surprised when she read it.

Even though Luke was managing T Corporation, he had never given up learning more professional knowledge about architecture.

Luke was a leader, and he was an architect too.

Luca turned the pages. She even spotted an architect's name that looked familiar to her in one of the cases mentioned in the book. It was Luke's name.

Luca saw the design and the signature under the photo below. It was the name she was familiar with.

A proud feeling aroused within her.

That was how outstanding the man she was in love with was.

Luca continued to turn the pages until the drowsiness kicked in. She glanced at her phone. It was already midnight.

It seemed like Luke had not finished his meeting yet.

Luca looked at the door and let out a sigh. She did not expect Luke to attend a meeting for such a long time.

Luca put the book away and left the lamp on the bedside table turned on. Then, she slowly lay down on the bed. The space beside her was where Luke slept. His scent lingered on his pillow.

Luca turned around and sniffed Luke's scent that lingered on the pillow. Then, she closed her eyes peacefully.

The meeting lasted until 1:30 a.m.

Luke quickly took a shower and returned to the master bedroom after the meeting ended.

He pushed the door open only to realize that Luca had left a table lamp beside the bed turned on.

The dim light of the lamp shone on the bed in the darkness. The bedroom was not pitch-black. Luke stared at the woman who was deeply asleep on the bed. His gaze was gentle.

Luke walked toward her and noticed that she was sleeping while holding his pillow in her arms.

The woman who was sleeping on her side with her face on the edge of his pillow was sleeping soundly.

There was a faint smile on Luke's face. Luca was asleep. She fell asleep with Luke's pillow in her arms as there was the scent she was familiar with on the pillow.

However, there was no way Luke could sleep if she kept on holding the pillow.

Luke gently took the pillow from her.

It did not wake Luca up. Luca let out a soft moan, turned around, and continued to sleep.

It melted Luke's heart to hear Luca moan so adorably. The way she slept like a baby was so lovable. The burning desire was surging within him.

Luke got onto the bed quietly. After he turned off the light on the bedside table, he lay down on the bed.

The moment he lay down, Luca tossed and turned around. Her hand rested on Luke's waist as she held him. She mumbled, "Luke..."

Luke stopped breathing for a moment. The way Luca blurted his name with her sweet voice that caught him off guard was a deadly seduction to him.

However, it was late at night. Luke could not bear to see her tired. He had no choice but to suppress the urge in his heart and gently patted Luca's back. "I'm here. Go to sleep."

"Good. night," Luca spoke to him in her dreams.

"Goodnight." Luke lowered his head and planted a kiss on her forehead. He held her in his arms and closed his eyes, planning to get some sleep.

In the afternoon of the next day.

Luca received a message from Luke, asking her to check her email.

It reminded Luca of Wanda's medical report. She quickly kept the experiment samples away and walked out of the laboratory.

One of the researchers noticed that and said to the researcher who sat beside him, "You read Dr. Craw's report before right? She's being extra careful to the extent that she keeps everything away before she leaves. She's watching out for you now."

"Dr. Craw is just being cautious," The other researcher rolled his eyes at him.

"You'd better believe it. We won't be allowed to read the documents that aren't related to the research project next time." The researcher who started the conversation babbled, trying to make a big deal out of it.

Rhett walked into the laboratory and overheard their conversation. He shook his head helplessly.

"Mr. Link, am I right?"

"I know nothing. Besides, Dr. Craw said that we'll be preparing for a new project today. She has gotten the materials ready and applied for the research funding. You'll have to speed up if you'd like to start your own research project. Otherwise, everyone will be busy once the new project commences," replied Rhett.

They were Luca's subordinates. Once they were given a new research project, all of them had to focus on the new project. They were only allowed to work on their own research in the laboratory when they had free time to do so.

"That's fast!" The researchers were taken by surprise by the news.

They had been working on their research in the laboratory just like Luca in the past few days. They did not expect the new research project to come so quickly.

“Previously, Dr. Craw was given a few research projects when she had just come to work here. There were two projects and she chose one of them. Now, she has to get ready to start another research project. It's normal for her to do so," replied Rhett as he walked to an empty lab bench and sat down on the chair.

Rhett was hoping that the research project could start as soon as possible.

His qualifications and experience were far from enough. He would be able to learn more if he worked on another research project.

Hence, Rhett needed a lot of chances to accumulate experience.

"Dr. Craw is really something," exclaimed one of the researchers. They were still thinking about what research they should be working on and how they should start, but Luca was already prepared to work on the second research project.

If the second research project was a success, it would generate a huge amount of profit for the company.

"Exactly. If you compare Dr. Craw to the other professors working in the company, they're nothing..." A researcher could not help but blurt out.

He had looked into the two research projects assigned to Luca.

The areas covered in the research were new. If the drug research went well and the drug was launched in the market, it would be good news for the patients who had been suffering from this sickness.

On the other hand.

Luca trotted back to her office and turned on her computer, which was in sleep mode. Then, she logged into her email.

There was a new email in her inbox, and the subject line was 'Wanda's medical report'.

Luca downloaded the attachment file and opened the medical report. She began looking at the vital signs and diagnostic test results.

Luca was not a doctor. She needed to look at the data attentively to be able to understand them.

When Luca saw the mammogram report, she clicked on the CT scan and frowned. She picked up her phone and contacted Johann.

Johann did not have any surgeries to perform today. The moment Johann's phone rang, he raised his brows when he saw Luca's name appear on the phone.

Luca seldom called him.

Johann answered the call and said, "Good afternoon, Dr. Craw."

"Good afternoon, Dr. Park. Are you busy now?" Luca asked as she kept on scrolling. She could not figure out what it was, so she could only look at the conclusion of the report.

Luca had a bad feeling about it when she saw the image. She read the last part of the report and finally figured it out.

"No. What's the matter?" Johann gave a signal to the intern who was beside him to keep quiet.

The intern immediately fell silent.

“I have a breast CT scan and color doppler here. I'd like you to help me to figure this out," Luca requested.

She needed Johann's help. novelbin

"Is it yours?" Johann frowned. He could sense the seriousness in Luca's tone even though she was on the other end of the line.

It seemed like the result was bad.

"It's not mine. It's... It's a friend's. I'm not a professional, so I'd like you to help me to take a look at it," replied Luca. She wanted to protect Wanda's privacy.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2563-“Okay. Send me the image. Here's my email. 423******," Johann gave Luca his email.

"Alright. I'll send it to you now. Thank you, Dr. Park." After Luca noted down Johann's email, she ended the call and saved the CT result and color doppler before sending them to Johann.

Johann immediately received the email.

After he downloaded the result, he opened the image and raised his eyebrows.

The intern who stood beside Johann noticed that something was wrong too.

"Dr. Park, isn't this cancer?" The intern asked. He was the relative of the assistant medical director of the hospital. He pulled some strings to become Johann's intern as he admired him a lot.

"Yes," Johann replied and zoomed in to read the result of the report. "Breast cancer."

"Is this patient a friend of yours?" The intern could not help but ask.

Johann rolled his eyes at him and said, "What did I tell you?"

"Don't ask questions..." the intern replied embarrassingly.

Johann no longer said anything. If it were not for the medical director's request, Johann would not have wanted to guide the intern.

It was troublesome to keep an intern beside him.

"Please step out for a second," Johann asked him to leave.

The intern rubbed his nose, knowing that he had been asking too many questions, which pissed Johann off. He stood up and walked out of the room.

Johann looked at the results several times. He eventually sent a message to Luca: [It's breast cancer. The situation doesn't look so good. There are signs of the cancer spreading. But a biopsy test is needed to find out what the specific situation is. How old is the patient?]

[She's in her 50s.] Luca's heart sank when she saw Johann's reply.

Wanda's cancer cells had spread.

[Is this the medical examination report? Are there any other CT scans and color doppler for the other parts of the body?] Johann sent another message to ask Luca. If the patient was in her 50s, was she not Bianca's aunt?

Johann remembered Wanda was diagnosed with breast cancer last time. However, she preferred to receive a conservative treatment. Thus, she found a naturopathic doctor who specialized in nursing health without getting any surgery.

After that, Wanda would come to the hospital for medical examinations every year.

There was no news from Luke telling him about Wanda's situation either. Why did things suddenly turn out this way?

Luca sent the rest of the medical report to Johann.

Johann carefully went over the medical report and sent a message to Luke: [Does the medical report belong to your wife's aunt?]

[Yes.] Luke replied to Johann's message. Although Luke had not seen the report, the doctor working at the health care center had contacted him and told him that Wanda's health was in a pretty bad condition.

Perhaps she could no longer receive conservative treatment.

[Dr. Craw sent me the medical report. The conservative treatment isn't working anymore. The patient's condition has taken a turn for the worse in such a short time. She needs to undergo surgery, and she needs to receive chemotherapy.] Johann replied to his message. Luke would always send Wanda's and Old Man Rayne's medical reports to him for him to take a look at them.

Hence, Johann knew their health condition well.

[Can you be her surgeon?] Luke asked.

Johann stroked his chin. He was not an expert in this field. He could perform the surgery, but he was afraid that he would not be able to do it well.

[I can't be her surgeon, but I heard my mentor in New York say that there'll be a few professors coming here to give seminars in half a month. There might be someone who's an expert in this field. If there's someone, you'll have to counsel her first and convince her to be admitted to the hospital. She needs to cooperate with us to do some physical examinations and receive treatment. She can take half a course of chemotherapy first. We'll then see how the results are and decide if it's necessary for her to continue. The surgery will be arranged once the expert has arrived. If there's no expert in this field, I'll look for someone else. Dr. Barlowe is one of the experts in this field. There are many cases of surgeries like this, and the survival rate of patients suffering from breast cancer for the past five years is more than 80 percent.] Johann replied to Luke.

Luke replied: [Okay. I'll leave it to you.]

Wanda's health condition could not be delayed any longer.

The doctor working at the health care center told him that fortunately, Wanda came for the medical examination in time. If Wanda only came for the medical examination once a year like in the past, it would have been too late.novelbin

Johann had Luke's permission, so he replied to Luca: [I've read the medical report. The cancer hasn't spread to the other organs at the moment, but I'd suggest the patient be admitted to the hospital to get a detailed health examination as soon as possible so that she can be treated in time.]

Luca's mind went blank when she saw Johann's reply. She had no idea how she replied to his message: [Okay. Thank you.]

Wanda's health was pretty bad, but Luca had no idea how she was supposed to tell her about this.

Luca recalled how hard Wanda had tried to keep her breasts many years ago. She was willing to drink bowls of herbal medicine that tasted bitter to keep them.

Now, Luca had to tell her such cruel news. All the treatments she had received did not work, and she had to undergo breast removal surgery. She did not know if Wanda could accept it.

Luca let out a sigh. She did not have the courage to tell Wanda about this.

She was down in the dumps as she stared at Wanda's medical report.

The phone she left on the table vibrated for a second. Luca picked up her phone and noticed that she had received a message from Luke.

[I've read the medical report. Johann suggests she gets admitted to the hospital to do a check-up and receive treatment. I'll tell her about it.]

There was a hint of sorrow in Luca's eyes. It sounded like a good idea for Luke to tell Wanda about it.

After all, Luca was in no position to comfort Wanda now. Then, she replied to his message: [Okay.]

Luke replied: [I'll talk to her in person. And I'll go home late tonight. Tell Aunt Neile not to prepare my dinner.]

[Okay.] Luca felt her reply sounded a little hopeless.

Luca had no idea what she should do when she found out Wanda was sick.

Nighttime.

After Luke was done with his work, he came to the Rayne family's house.

Wanda was surprised when the maid informed her that Luke was here. She recalled the medical examination she had done this morning, and she had a bad feeling about it.

Was there something wrong with the medical report that made Luke come here at this hour?

Wanda immediately headed downstairs.

“Luke, why are you here?" The anxiety in Wanda's heart grew when she saw that the man had come here in a hurry.

She wondered if it was something wrong with her or Old Man Rayne's medical report.

"Aunt Wanda, where's Grandpa Rayne?" Luke glanced at the stairs.

"He's taking a rest upstairs. Is there something wrong with the medical report?" Wanda clasped her hands anxiously, waiting for Luke to tell her the bad news.

If there was nothing wrong with the medical report, Luke would not have to come here in person.

"Aunt Wanda, your medical report states that your breast cancer has worsened. You can't take herbal medicine to treat it anymore. I've already contacted the doctor. Please get ready to be admitted to the hospital tomorrow." Luke did not hide it from her. Wanda was not someone easy to fool either, hence he just decided to be honest.

That way, Wanda would be able to know her condition too, and she would stop taking herbal medicine to treat it.

"How can it be? Everything was fine the last time I went for a medical examination..." Wanda shook her head in disbelief. The report stated that the herbal medicine had nursed her health well and got the situation under control. How could it worsen in just a few months?

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2564

Wanda clasped her hands anxiously and said, “I always take my medicine."

"Aunt Wanda, the most important thing to do now is to get admitted to the hospital to do a check-up. Conservative treatment isn't working anymore. You have to listen to the doctor's arrangement," Luke said with a stern expression on his face. He was worried Wanda would try to run away from it again.

If the conservative treatment worked for her, then there would be no problem for her to choose any kind of treatment.

However, Wanda was left with no choice now.

Wanda took a deep breath, trying to accept reality.

It happened all of a sudden. Her medical report stated that she had the cancer cells under control, and there was no sign of it getting worse. Yet, there was such a drastic change in her body in just a few months...

"Aunt Wanda, Bianca doesn't want anything to happen to you. So, you must listen to the doctor's advice this time. Dr. Park has already contacted another doctor, and he's going to get in touch with the professor who's a breast cancer specialist to be your surgeon," said Luke in a deep voice.

Wanda slowly nodded and said, "I'll pack tonight and head to the hospital tomorrow."

"Okay." Luke let out a sigh of relief when Wanda agreed to receive treatment.

Wanda did not want to lose her breasts back then, and she had been looking for other ways to cure the cancer.

That was why Luke was worried Wanda was unable to accept it and run away.

Fortunately.

Wanda said, "I wouldn't want to get any treatment if it were just me. I'd rather die elegantly than live in pain. Luke, Bianca is still abroad and I'm the only one who's looking after Grandpa Rayne. I can't let anything happen to me. Who would have known that such a thing would happen to me? Please do me a favor."

"Aunt Wanda, you'll be fine." Luke's eyes darkened. What Wanda said was as though those were her last words.

Luke would not let anything happen to the Rayne family. Luca could not appear in front of her family with her true identity yet, so he had to protect everything she had.

Wanda shook her head and replied, "Luke, no one knows what's going to happen next. If anything happens to me, please take care of my father."

Wanda had been prepared for this over the years.

Although taking herbal medicine could control the cancer cells, no one knew if her condition would become serious all of a sudden.

Hence, Wanda was mentally prepared for this. She was able to accept it quickly. “Bianca is living abroad now, and she doesn't remember us anymore. So, I need your help to take care of things here..."

"Aunt Wanda, Grandpa Rayne is your father, and you should be taking care of him. I can only help you to look after him now. You'll still have to come back to take care of him when you've recovered," Luke replied in a hoarse voice.

How he wished he could tell them that Bianca still remembered them.

However, it was not the time now.

Wanda smiled. She knew Luke wanted her to stay alive.

Bianca had not picked the wrong man to marry. Even if Wanda passed away, Luke would not leave Old Man Rayne alone. Then, Wanda replied, "Okay. I'll leave it to you for the time being. Also, don't tell him I'm getting admitted to the hospital. I'm afraid he'll be worried."

"Okay. I'll tell him that you're going to travel with a tour group that I've arranged for you. Then, I'll send another maid here to take care of Grandpa Rayne," said Luke.

Wanda and Lucy were the ones who usually took care of Grandpa Rayne. Now that Wanda had to head to the hospital to receive treatment, Luke had to send another person here.

"Thank you. It's late. You should go home. I'll head to the hospital tomorrow." Wanda thanked Luke. She had to pack her daily necessities and tell Old Man Rayne that she would be going on a vacation.

"I'll ask Zander to pick you up around 7:30 in the morning." Luke was not planning to let Wanda head to the hospital alone.

"Okay." Wanda nodded and agreed to Luke's arrangement. After Luke left, Wanda headed upstairs and walked into Old Man Rayne's bedroom.

Old Man Rayne was taking a foot bath.

Wanda made sure there was nothing wrong with the expression on her face. She wore a smile and walked into the bedroom. "Dad."

"Where's Luke? I thought Luke came just now." Old Man Rayne looked behind Wanda. Luke was nowhere to be seen. novelbin

Lucy had informed Old Man Rayne that Luca came over, and Wanda was discussing matters with him downstairs. Thus, Lucy came to prepare the herbal foot bath for him.

"Yes. He went back after we finished discussing some matters." Wanda squatted beside Old Man Rayne. She lifted her head and looked at him. "Dad, Luke signed me up to travel with a tour group. I'd like to travel."

"Travel? That's great. You didn't get the chance to travel for the past few years because you had to take care of me. Spring has come. Seize the chance to have some fun and enjoy yourself." Old Man Rayne's legs felt comfortable being warmed with the herbal foot bath, and he narrowed his eyes with satisfaction.

"Okay. You have to take your medicine and take a foot bath every day when I'm not around," replied Wanda.

"Don't worry about that. These are good for my health. I'll take the medicine and soak my feet every day." Old Man Rayne patted the back of Wanda's palm. He suddenly focused on staring at Wanda.

"Great. Plus, Luke is worried that Lucy won't be able to take good care of you all by herself. He'll send another maid here tomorrow." Wanda was still smiling.

"Why do I need another maid? One is enough." Old Man Rayne did not want to trouble the others. He was not a difficult person to take care of. Even if Wanda was away on travels, Lucy would be able to look after him. Then, he suddenly realized something and asked, "Are you setting off tomorrow?"

"Yes. Luke only saw the tour group advertisement today. He has already signed me up for it," answered Wanda. "I'm going back to my bedroom to pack later."

Old Man Rayne sensed that something was wrong. He frowned and asked, "Wanda, are you hiding something from me?"

"Dad, nothing happened. Could it be that you don't want me to travel?" Wanda pretended to be happy. No one would look depressed on the day before they went on vacation.

"No. You should go travel when you're young. Since you're going on vacation, go and enjoy yourself. Take some photos and send them to me. Anyway, how long will you be traveling for?" Old Man Rayne stroked Wanda's cold face. He only had a daughter left, so, of course, he wanted her to be happy.

"I don't know how long it's going to take. The tour group will be going to several tourist attractions. It's going to take a longer time, but I'll take nice photos and show you when I'm back." Wanda could feel Old Man Rayne's rough palm skin on her face. She secretly swore to herself that she had to get well soon.

Wanda could not bear to let Old Man Rayne experience the loss of a loved one. No parent should have to bury their child.

She had to stay by his side...

"Okay. Aren't you going to pack your stuff? Go ahead. Even though it's spring now, it's cold out there. Remember to bring more clothes to keep yourself warm," reminded Old Man Rayne.

"Dad, I'm not in a hurry. I'll wait until you're done soaking your feet," said Wanda as she shook her head. She was only heading to the hospital. There were only a few daily necessities she had to pack.

Wanda planned to wait for Old Man Rayne to finish soaking his feet and help him up to the bed.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2565-“Leave it to Lucy. Just go ahead and pack your stuff." Old Master Rayne gently pushed Wanda's hands.

The maid Luke hired was responsible. There were many things Wanda did not have to worry about. It was just that she was used to worrying about these things, and she could not get used to leaving them to someone else to do.

Wanda nodded and rose to her feet when she saw how dutiful Lucy was. She reminded Lucy, "Please take good care of Old Master Rayne."

"I will, Ms. Rayne." Lucy who stood beside her nodded.

After Wanda left, Old Master Rayne asked Lucy, "Do you know what Luke said to her just now?"

Lucy shook her head. "Old Master Rayne, I came upstairs to look after you when Mr. Crawford came. I didn't hear what they were talking about."

Old Master Rayne's eyes darkened. He could sense a hint of sadness in Wanda's eyes.

Wanda should be happy to go on a vacation. What happened?

Did something happen to Bianca?

It was unlikely that something would happen to her. Even though she could not remember anyone else, Luke would never let anything happen to Bianca.

"Old Master Rayne, the water's getting cold. Do you need me to add some warm water?" Lucy asked in a soft voice when she saw Old Master Rayne sitting there in a daze.

Old Master Rayne came back to his senses and lifted his legs. He shook his head and replied, "It's alright. That's all for today."

"Okay. Let me dry your feet for you." Lucy picked up the towel beside him. She wiped the droplets on Old Master Rayne's feet and dried them. Then, she helped him to get into bed.

"Old Master Rayne, would you like to rest now?" Lucy asked caringly after she kept the foot bathtub and towel away.

Old Master Rayne was still thinking about the expression on Wanda's face. Wanda was his daughter. He could sense her emotions even if she tried to conceal them.

Wanda was not looking forward to the trip.

She must be concealing something from him.

However, even if she was facing a problem, there was nothing he could do to help her with his weak body and poor legs. Hence, it was normal for Wanda to hide something from him.

Old Master Rayne could not help but feel worried, but he knew he would not be able to find out what happened even if he went to ask her now.

He had no choice but to give up.

“Old Master Rayne?" Lucy noticed that he was lost in thoughts. She called him in a soft voice.

Old Master Rayne let out a sigh, nodded, and replied, "Yes. I'll go to sleep."

"Okay." Lucy nodded. After she helped Old Master Rayne to lay down on his bed and covered him with the blanket, she walked out of the bedroom and closed the door.

Wanda stood outside the bedroom door, waiting for her.

Lucy was taken by surprise, "Why are you..."

"Let's talk in the living room," Wanda said in a low voice.

Lucy nodded and followed Wanda to the living room on the first floor.

"Did my father ask you anything?" Wanda asked.

"Old Master Rayne asked me if I heard your conversation with Mr. Crawford. After I told him that I didn't hear anything, he seemed preoccupied," Lucy answered honestly.

"Please take good care of him when I'm not around. Call me immediately if anything happens. If you can't reach me, call Luke," reminded Wanda.

Since Old Master Rayne's health worsened, Wanda had never left him and had always been taking care of him.

If it were not for her sickness that did not allow her to delay the treatment, she could not bear to leave Old Master Rayne alone at home and just let Lucy take care of him.

"Okay. Don't worry. I'll look after Old Master Rayne," promised Lucy.

Wanda nodded. Then, she turned around and headed upstairs.

Lucy followed behind her and asked, "Are you packing your stuff? Do you need help?"

"It's okay. I can do it myself. You can rest early." Wanda shook her head. She could not let Lucy find out that she was heading to the hospital. Otherwise, Lucy might spill the beans and Old Master Rayne would find out about it.

Although Old Master Rayne's health had improved, he would not be able to take it if he found out about it.

If he was anxious and worried about her, it might affect his sleep.

"Okay." Lucy returned upstairs. Her bedroom was right beside Old Master Rayne's bedroom to make it convenient for her to look after him.

Wanda returned to her room and packed some necessities she would be using during her stay in the hospital. Then, she zipped the suitcase.

She heaved a sigh while staring at the suitcase.

Could being admitted to the hospital change anything?

Wanda had no idea if she could survive this.

On the other hand.

Luke returned to the villa. The kids were already asleep. Luca was waiting for him in the living room.

Luca immediately rose to her feet and looked in the direction of the foyer when she heard footsteps. “Mister... Luke, how's Ms. Rayne doing now?"

Luke changed his shoes and walked toward the sofa. Then, he held Luca's hands.

Luca must be the person who was worried about Wanda the most. However, she could not show her concerns and how worried she was due to her identity now. It must be difficult for her.

“I've already told her. Zander will send her to the hospital tomorrow. She'll take the physical examination and receive treatment." Luke gently stroked Luca's hands. Luca's hands were cold as she was worried about Wanda.

“I knew something was wrong." Luca looked down and recalled the moment when she had physical contact with Wanda. She thought Wanda was just weak, but she did not expect things to be so serious.

“Johann is already contacting the experts. She'll be fine." Luke comforted her in a soft voice, knowing that Luca was worried about Wanda.

“Can I visit her when she's in the hospital?" Luca asked. Even though Luke knew Luca and Wanda knew each other well, she was worried and she could not bear to see Wanda get admitted to the hospital and undergo the surgery alone. novelbin

She wanted to know the whole progress of Wanda's treatment.

It was not that Luca did not trust Johann, but she wanted to make sure Wanda received the best treatment.

“Sure. You can visit her anytime you want, but take Rain along with you," replied Luke. Many people came in and out of the hospital every day. It was hard to say that Matysh's men would not make a move in the hospital.

“Okay." Luca did not reject him as she knew Luke made such an arrangement to make sure that she was safe.

If Matysh made a move at this time and she got kidnapped by his men, she would be causing more trouble for Luke.

The following day, Wanda got into Zander's car and came to the hospital.

Johann had already got everything arranged in the hospital.

After Wanda placed her suitcase in the VIP ward, a nurse came in and claimed that she would be taking Wanda for a medical check-up.

Wanda nodded and followed the nurse.

When Wanda returned to her ward, she saw Luca sitting in the ward waiting for her. It warmed Wanda's heart to see Luca here. She did not expect her to be here.

If it were not for her, she might feel more depressed.

In line with the past practices, if there was nothing wrong with Wanda's health, she would only come to the hospital for a check-up once every year.

Luca's reminder saved her life this time. At least she would get to receive treatment in time before the cancer cells spread to the other parts of the body.

Johann was the one who told Wanda about this.

“Luca, why are you here?" Wanda asked.

"It's Saturday. I came to visit you," replied Luca. She looked at Wanda's pale face and secretly hoped that she could have noticed that something was wrong with Wanda earlier.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2566-“You should rest on Saturdays. Why did you come all the way here? It's troublesome." Wanda smiled. She felt a little embarrassed when she found out that Luca came to visit her.

"I heard you got admitted to the hospital to receive treatment. I'd like to see if there's anything I can help with," replied Luca.

Although naturopathy did not work for Wanda, the techniques Luca learned from Shanks might be useful.

"Thank you..." Wanda sincerely thanked Luca knowing that she would like to help. Wanda also realized she had not thanked Luca for reminding her that she should head for a medical check-up. Hence, she said, "And thank you for reminding me back then. Otherwise, it would've been too late when I went for a medical examination next time."

"Ms. Rayne, stop thinking too much. Listen to the doctor's advice and receive the treatment given to you. Let's talk about the other stuff next time." Luca knew Wanda was feeling upset.

Wanda had spent her life living gracefully.

Even though she got divorced and returned home, she had never stopped living gracefully. Now, she had to undergo the surgery. Her body would never be complete anymore.

Wanda refused to take the surgery back then due to this reason.

"I know." Wanda lowered her head and glanced at herself. Then, she immediately lifted her head and smiled helplessly. "I thought of keeping them with me at that time. That's why I refused to undergo the surgery. I didn't expect to lose them after a few years. They'll stay if they're meant to be. But I've reached the age where they're of no use to me anymore."

Luca felt sorry for her when she saw the miserable look in Wanda's eyes.

"Ms. Rayne, let me help you nurse your health," suggested Luca. Luke had told her the treatment Johann was planning to give Wanda.

The surgery would not be scheduled anytime soon. Thus, the main treatment would be chemotherapy.

Undergoing chemotherapy was painful. Luca wanted to help Wanda reduce the pain with her knowledge and capabilities.

After all, it was the only thing she could do for Wanda.

"Huh?" Wanda did not understand what Luca meant.

"The doctor might give you chemotherapy sessions to control the lesion. It's difficult for a patient to undergo chemotherapy. Let me help you to nurse your health. Naturopathy can help to reduce the side effects of chemotherapy. You won't be in as much pain and you'll feel better," explained Luca.

Wanda saw many cancer patients suffering from side effects after undergoing chemotherapy. This was also another reason why she was afraid of going for surgery.

A patient might not recover after undergoing the surgery. The doctor would arrange chemotherapy sessions for the patient just to be on the safe side. Many patients suffered from shooting pains in the body.

This was also another reason why Wanda began to reject taking modern medicine.

“Luca, thank you." Wanda came forward and stared at Luca.

Luca's eyes looked similar to Bianca's. The moment they looked each other in the eyes, Wanda felt like she was talking to Bianca.

"Ms. Rayne, it's nothing. You must get well soon," Luca said in a voice choked with sobs.

Luca wondered if it was because of the sickness that made Wanda look restless, but Wanda looked paler than two days ago.

Wanda could hear the sobs in Luca's voice. She could not help but feel a lump in her throat. She said, "I'll get well soon. I still have to look after my father."

Luca almost burst into tears.

She thought she was able to control her emotions well after she was trained on the Island of Despair for three years.

However, Luca could not help but get emotional when she was facing someone whom she was close with and at the thought of losing her anytime because of her sickness.

"Ms. Rayne, it's time for you to head for another check-up," said another nurse who pushed the door open and entered the ward.

Wanda wiped the tears in the corners of her eyes. Then, she asked with confusion, "Why is there a second check-up? Didn't I just go for one?"

"You went for a magnetic resonance imaging just now, and you're going for a blood test now. The indices for the blood test in the hospital and healthcare center are different. That's why we need to draw your blood and undergo the blood test again," explained the nurse.

"Okay." Wanda turned to look at Luca and said, "Please excuse me."

"Go ahead. I'm leaving too," replied Luca. She followed Wanda out of the ward.

The two of them came to the elevator. Rain was waiting for Luca where the elevators were. She nodded at Luca when she saw her come out of the ward.

Luca gently nodded too. Then, she parted with Wanda at the elevator hall.

Luca did not leave the hospital. She went to look for Johann.

Luca walked into the elevator and pressed the button heading to the floor where Johann's office was.

She had already asked if Johann was seeing any patients this morning. Johann had postponed his surgery to the afternoon as Wanda got admitted to the hospital.

"Ms. Craw, are we going to Dr. Park's office?" Rain asked.

"Yes. I'd like to find out more about Aunt... Ms. Rayne's condition," replied Luca in a depressed tone.

Rain did not know what to say, and she had no idea how to comfort Luca either.

The two of them came to Johann's office entrance.

Rain said, “Ms. Craw, go ahead. I'll stay here."

“Okay." Luca knocked at the office door.

"Come in," Johann's voice came from inside.

Luca pushed the door open and walked into Johann's office. "Dr. Park."

"Ms. Craw, you're here." Johann knew Luca would be coming. He was not surprised to see her here, and he looked for Wanda's examination result that had just come out for Luca.

"I came to see Ms. Rayne's examination report. Is it still processing?" Luca sat on the chair where Johann's patients had always sat.

"I informed them earlier. The results of the MRI came out. Take a look at these." Johann opened the examination results.

Luca looked at the images of the examination result, but she could not understand them.

Shanks was the surgeon. All Luca did was stand beside him and hand him the medical equipment needed for the surgery as well as provide some treatment to the patient. She never had to see any blood.

Shanks told Luca that her knowledge was not enough for her to perform the surgery on others.

Hence, Luca could only understand written reports.

Johann noticed the puzzled look on Luca's face and explained the results to her considering that she might not be able to understand the report. He moved the mouse, drew a circle, and said, "This is the breast lesion. From what we can see now, there are signs of cancer cells spreading. Still, she's fortunate enough that they haven't spread to the other organs in the body. It'll be best for her to undergo the surgery."

"Does that mean she'll be losing her breasts?" Luca asked.

“It seems like it now. But there's nothing else she can do to stay alive. If the patient is bothered by it, she may go for cosmetic surgery after she has recovered. Others won't be able to tell," said Johann. Doctors like him usually put saving one's life as their priority.

"Okay." Luca looked down and stared at the lesion, feeling helpless. novelbin

"I've already contacted an expert in New York. They'll be coming here in half a month. My professor knows the expert well, and they've agreed to spend two days observing the patient before performing the surgery." Johann told Luca his treatment plans.

It was the treatment plan that Johann came up with after spending some time discussing it with the breast surgeon.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2567-“Dr. Park, I'd like to nurse Ms. Rayne's health when she's receiving chemotherapy to reduce her pain," suggested Luca.

Johann was Wanda's attending physician. Luca had to get his permission to nurse Wanda's health.

Furthermore, Luca did not have a medical license. She was not allowed to practice anything in the hospital without Johann's permission.

"Sure. No problem," Johann agreed without a second thought.

Johann knew how capable Luca was. Her skills would be more than enough if she were to work in the naturopathy department in the hospital and become a specialist.

"Thank you. I didn't expect you to agree to it." Luca did not expect Johann would agree to it quickly. She wondered if Luke had told him something.

"Why should I go against it when your practice can reduce the patient's pain?" replied Johann. Many patients would pick naturopathy treatment when they were receiving chemotherapy.

However, the effects of reducing the pain were insignificant.

"Let me help you to apply for it," added Johann. Then, he looked for the application form on the computer. Luca would have to sign her name on the form so that he could hand it to the hospital director to stamp on it.

"Okay." Luca nodded as she waited for Johann to print the form out.

Johann printed the form. When he was about to fill in the blanks, the intern knocked at the door and came in.

The office's door was left open, so the intern came in right away after he knocked. "Dr. Park."

Johann was filling out the form. He lifted his hand and signaled him not to say anything.

The intern immediately fell silent.

After Johann filled the form, he handed the pen to Luca and said, "Dr. Craw, sign your name here."

Luca nodded, picked up the pen, and signed her name on the application form.

"Stamp your fingerprint on it. It's essential for the procedure. The hospital is afraid of getting into trouble." Johann handed the ink pad to Luca. He believed in Luca's capability, but not the hospital's.

Hence, the procedure and signature should be done properly just in case the hospital director had a problem with it.

"I understand." Luca stamped her fingerprint on it.

The intern shot a glance at the application form and put a strange expression on his face. He could not help but wonder who the woman was. Why would Johann give her permission to practice medicine?

The privilege of practicing medicine usually did not apply to senior doctors.

Since the woman in front of him was not a senior doctor working in another hospital, then she was probably not as capable as Johann was. Why would Johann behave this way?

Johann took the application form that Luca had signed from her, then handed it to the intern. He said, "Send this to the hospital director's office."

"Huh?" The intern blinked his eyes.

Johann asked expressionlessly, "You don't know where the hospital director's office is?"

"I do. I'll go now." The intern dared not be negligent. Even though he was confused, he took the papers and immediately walked out of the office.

Luca glanced at the intern, then she turned around and looked at Johann. She asked with curiosity, "Is he the intern you're guiding?"

"Yes." Johann furrowed his brows for a moment.

"You're hard on him," replied Luca. Johann usually smiled at everyone in the hospital no matter if that person was a doctor, nurse, or patient. It was an eye-opener to see Johann being mean to an intern today.

It turned out that Dr. Park had a temper too.

"I never wanted to guide any interns. It's too troublesome," replied Johann.

The other doctors thought having interns meant getting help for some trivial matters.

However, Johann thought interns would only cause him trouble.

"With your status, you can choose not to guide one, right?" Luca spoke her mind.

Johann was a talent every hospital would fight for to hire him. He could do anything he wanted in this hospital. Was it not an easy task for him to decline the request of guiding an intern?

"That kid is a relative of the hospital director and the assistant director," Johann said helplessly, "The two old men bought me drinks and prodded me to sign the agreement when I was feeling tipsy. And if I refused to abide by the agreement, I'd have to become the head of the department..."

Johann enjoyed being a doctor, but that did not mean he wanted to get promoted.

It was enough for Johann when his words and opinions carried weight in this hospital. There was no need for him to seek a higher position.

If Johann became the head of the department, many responsibilities and matters would fall within his job scope. There would be tons of troublesome matters he had to handle, and he would be too busy to perform surgeries then.

Johann preferred to stay in the clinic and operating rooms instead of an office.

Becoming the head of the department was something permanent if he was unlucky enough.

However, guiding an intern would only take him two to three years.

Besides, who knew what would happen in the future?

Luca snickered. She did not expect a clever man like Johann would be fooled by two senior doctors.

After a while, the intern returned to the office with the application form that had been permitted by the hospital director. He said, “Dr. Park, the hospital director has approved it. ”

When the hospital director signed the form, the intern asked about Luca's matter.

Once he asked about Luca, he realized that although Luca was not an expert from another hospital, she was even more capable and knowledgeable than an expert.

What she had done to the patients in the VIP ward, naturopathy department, and the rehabilitation department was already getting around the hospital.

"Wow, it's definitely quicker when someone's pulling the strings.” Johann glanced at the application form and handed it to Luca.

The intern could sense the implication in Johann's words and scratched the back of his head embarrassingly. "Dr. Park, stop teasing me. I've heard about Dr. Craw's matters. Even if it wasn't me who went to hand in the form, the hospital director would've agreed to it all the same.”

"That's true. She's a talent. What a pity. Dr. Craw is a talent the hospital director can't get. I feel depressed at the mention of this. How did Luke manage to hire all the talents?” Johann wondered.

If Luca was willing to become a doctor, the contribution she could make in the medical industry would definitely be bigger than the contributions she could make to the biopharmaceutical industry.

Luca shook her head helplessly and glanced at the application form to check if there was anything wrong with it. Then, she rose to her feet and said, "Dr. Park, I should leave. I've got something else to do. Oh, I'll go home to look up some information. I'll send you the prescription for the medicine. Please arrange it for me. Ms. Rayne can take the medicine before she starts receiving chemotherapy.”

"Okay. Off you go. I have to prepare to enter the operating room soon.” Johann glanced at the time. It was almost time for the operation. He reckoned that the nurse had already sent the patient to the operating room and the assistant surgeon was probably getting everything prepared before the operation started. It was time for Johann to head there. Hence, he stood up.

Luca nodded and walked out of Johann's office.

The intern stared blankly in the direction where Luca left. Johann said impatiently, "Why are you standing there? Get ready to head to the operation room.”

"Ah, yes.” The intern came back to his senses as he was still thinking about Luca.

If Luca was as capable as what the hospital director had told him, why did she not become a doctor?

He heard the hospital director say that Luca was a professor who studied biopharmaceuticals. Although it was a good industry to work in, becoming a doctor was way more meaningful.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2568-After Luca left Johann's office, she left the hospital together with Rain.

They ran into Queenie while they waited for Warren to drive the car to the pick-up point.

Queenie was startled for a moment when she saw the two of them standing together. Luke had asked Rain to help her before, and that was why Queenie recognized Rain.

“Luca, Rain, why are you... at the hospital?" Queenie remembered that Luca was working for Luke too. It was very likely for her to know Rain. Hence, she changed the topic of the conversation abruptly and immediately asked them why they were at the hospital.

"Mrs. Norman?" Luca immediately became worried when she saw Queenie. "Why did you come to the hospital?"

"Oh, I came with Leia for her follow-up. The doctor said she hasn't recovered much. That's why I came with her to listen to the doctor's advice. You.." Queenie sized Rain up and looked at Luca.

Luke would not send Rain if it was a normal situation.

However, Rain and Luca were standing together now. Queenie could not help but doubt if the relationship between Luca and Luke was as simple as a superior-subordinate relationship.

"Mrs. Norman, Boss sent me to protect Ms. Craw," Rain spoke honestly.

Queenie became more confused, "Protect?"

"Ms. Craw has gotten into some trouble lately." Rain could not reveal anything more about it.

Luca felt helpless when she saw the confused look on Queenie's face.

As long as she was not Bianca, she would always arouse Queenie's suspicion no matter what she did.

Queenie looked at Luca in surprise and said, "Luca, remember to look for Mr. Norman if you need any help. His words carry weight in A City."

Luca knew Queenie had misunderstood her. She thought Luca had pissed some big cheese off. If that person was from A City, it would be easier to settle the dispute with Jack intervening in the matter and speaking up for Luca.

However, Matysh was the one Luca had messed with. He was a man who would not show any respect to others.

"Okay. Thank you, Mrs. Norman," replied Luca.

“What are you talking about?" Leia asked in a grumpy tone. She could not help but feel intimidated when she saw Luca and Queenie talking to each other.

"Nothing. Have you finished doing your check-up?" Queenie knew Leia was hostile to Luca. That was why she did not tell Leia what Rain told her.

"Why am I here if I haven't done the check-up?" Leia retorted. She mentioned to Queenie that she wished to return to the Normans' residence when they were on their way to the hospital, but Queenie rejected her.

Queenie did not behave like that in the past. She was soft-hearted and always fulfilled Leia's requests.

However, after something went wrong with Leia's liver, Luca had been standing in their way. Queenie no longer adored and pampered Leia like how she used to.

Hence, Leia hated Luca from the bottom of her heart. She thought Luca had been talking to Queenie a lot, and that was why Queenie refused to pay for a liver in the black market. Leia was eventually left with no choice but to accept Dexter's liver.

Queenie knew Leia was unhappy when she heard her tone. She frowned helplessly.

She was at her wit's end with Leia.

"How's the result?" Queenie asked caringly.

"I've just come out from the MRI room. How am I supposed to know that? Didn't you get the results for me?" Leia questioned her. The hatred she felt for Luca grew whenever she saw her. She wondered if Matysh was blind. How did he fall for such a woman?

"Well, you were busy talking to those who have nothing to do with you. You don't care about me. Of course, you didn't get them for me."

After that, Leia turned around and left.

"Ah, Leia, where are you going?" Queenie immediately followed behind her, and she did not remember to say goodbye Luca.

"It's none of your business. I'll take the results myself." Leia trotted away without waiting for Queenie.

Queenie had no choice but to hurry up and catch up to her.

Rain shook her head helplessly and said, "No one can stand that temper of hers."

"Yeah." Luca nodded. Queenie and Jack were people with good tempers, but Leia was the most bad- tempered person in the Norman family.

Rain shot Luca a meaningful glance and mumbled, "After all, she's not their biological daughter. She doesn't have their temper or personality. I wonder why she has the guts to behave this way. If it were my daughter, I'd..."

Rain paused for a moment. Considering that Luca had to suffer in silence now, she did not continue talking about it.

"Ms. Norman has always behaved like that, right?" Although Luca was asking a question, she sounded more like she was certain about it.

Her true identity was Bianca. She had always known how Leia's temper was.

"Yes. She's like this all the time. She has always been like that since I came to A City." Rain knew Luca knowingly asked that, and she stopped talking about it.

"Okay." Luca nodded. Rain pulled the car door open, then Luca bent down and entered the car.

After Rain closed the car door, she got into the car through the door on the other side.

Warren asked, "Ms. Craw, where would you like to go now?"

"Please send me home," answered Luca. The kids would be going back to school in two days. She had been busy these days and did not get to keep them company. Therefore, Luca was planning to spend some time with the kids this weekend.

Warren drove the car and headed to the villa.

After the man with the mask saw Luca get into the car, he picked up his phone and reported to Matysh about the situation.

Matysh, who was at the hotel, could not help but ask after answering the phone, "Why did she go to the hospital?"

"I'm not sure about that..." replied the man. He had been following Luca the entire time, but he did not have access to the highest floor of the hospital. Thus, he had been standing at the door waiting for

Luca after seeing that the chauffeur who dropped Luca at the hospital had parked the car in the outdoor parking lot.

"You stupid *sshole. I asked you to spy on her just to understand what's going on with her. You don't even know the answer when I ask you a simple question like that. The only reason I spent so much money hiring you is to find out everything that's going on with her. So, go and find out now," Matysh yelled at the man on the other end of the line.

The man who got yelled at pulled a long face.

He had no choice but to call the others when he listened to the busy tone from the other end of the line.

He was not an expert in stalking and investigating people, but he was assigned this job only because he could understand Russian. At least he was able to communicate with Matysh.

The man realized the job he was assigned needed to be done more professionally, and he had to look for an expert in this.

He made a call and gave his instructions about the mission assigned to him.

In the hotel.

After Matysh hung up the call, he picked up the wine glass and gulped down the whole glass of wine with a gloomy expression on his face.

Mandy, who was sitting beside him, had heard their conversation. She gave Matysh a seductive look and took his wine glass from him. She asked, "What's the matter?"

"They're all useless. I hired them to spy on Luca, but they don't even know why Luca went to the hospital. Tell me, aren't they as useless as a glass hammer?" Matysh ranted. Matysh was running out of patience at the thought of him spending so much money when he had yet to lay a finger on Luca.

Mandy raised her brows and asked, "What could happen to her when she only headed to the hospital once? By any chance, are you worried about her?"

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2569-"How's that possible? All I think about is how to get my hands on her." The expression on Matysh's face was hideous. The longer it took, the more impatient he got.

"Why don't we ask them to make a move tomorrow?" Mandy mocked him.

Mandy knew that she would not be staying by Matysh's side for long. Hence, she only wanted to get a huge amount of money from him and end the meaningless relationship.

After all, Mandy would not force anything when she knew she would not be able to get Matysh. It would be better for her to get an amount of money and look for another guy.

Matysh frowned when he heard Mandy's suggestion. He clearly disagreed with her. "That's too hasty."

"She's just a woman. Isn't she something that you can get any time you want? Why would you listen to what those people say? Their plans need time. Your family must be dissatisfied with the fact that you've been staying here and refusing to go back, right?" Mandy's advice went unheeded.

Mandy had been staying by Matysh's side these few days. She had heard his conversation with those people.

His family kept asking him to go back.

However, Matysh would not leave when he had not gotten Luca. That was why he had been brushing them off.

Still, Matysh's family was not silly either. They urged him more often day after day.

"You're right." Matysh lit up his cigar and eventually decided. He said, "Tell Leia to get ready to take action."

"Okay." Mandy could not help but feel excited when she saw that Matysh had finally let his guard down and decided to make a move.

On the other hand...

Queenie managed to keep pace with Leia, who was heading to the doctor's office.

In the office.

The doctor could not help but frown when he looked at Leia's medical report. After he read the report, he gave Leia a serious look.

"Ms. Norman, have you been following the medical advice?" he asked.

Leia had already gotten used to the stern expression on the doctor's face when she came for follow-up sessions every time. She rolled her eyes and replied, "The maid keeps an eye on everything I eat and drink, including the time I go to bed. What do you think?"

Queenie immediately asked when she saw the expression on the doctor's face, “Doc, how's Leia's test results?" "Her recovery isn't going as well as we expected. We don't know the reason either. How about this? I'll continue to adjust the dosage of her medicine. She still has to follow the diet restrictions. She needs to eat clean, and no greasy food is allowed. Don't let her have any seafood either. She must get enough rest and take her medicine on time..."

Leia listened as the doctor rambled on. She felt discontented in her heart. How many times had he said all these?

However, the results of Leia's physical examination always seemed to end up bad. It was as though Dexter's liver was deliberately going against her. Her recovery progress was not as good as the doctor expected.

"That's enough. What'll be different even if I do follow your advice? I still ended up like this. Are you even able to heal me?" Leia interrupted the doctor and questioned him.

Queenie felt surprised and awkward at the same time. She lowered her voice and scolded Leia, "Leia, what nonsense are you talking about?"

The doctor was rendered speechless. He was puzzled. Leia was just like what the others had said about her on the internet. She was ill-mannered. novelbin

"I'm telling the truth. The medicine he prescribed isn't working at all. And he's blaming me for not following his advice. The maid is the one who's responsible for my meals. If there's nothing wrong with the doctor, then it must be the maid you hired." Leia deliberately gave the maid a dirty look.

Leia did not like the maid. She was always keeping an eye on her and asking her not to do this and that while using Jack's name.

Leia's life became dull.

The maid, who stood beside her, immediately denied, "The meals I prepare for Ms. Norman are all based on the doctor's advice. Besides, I set the alarm clock to remind myself of the time for Ms. Norman to take her medicine. I also record everything she eats and the time she takes her medicine every day. There's basically no room for error."

Queenie felt even more helpless. She knew Leia was unhappy and intentionally nitpicking on the maid.

The doctor did not know what to say. He had no choice but to say, "It's normal for such cases to happen. The recovery speed depends on the person's physique. Previously, Ms. Norman was been sick for a long time before she got her new liver. That's why her physique isn't good enough and her recovery is slow."

Leia became more impatient when she heard what the doctor said, "Come on, stop talking about these. Is there a way to help me to nurse my health or not?"

The doctor felt helpless with Leia being so harsh to him.

Doctors like him would encounter such patients every year, but there was nothing they could do about it. If they replied to the patient in a slightly angry tone, they would get complained about.

The doctor had no choice but to say, "Why don't you try receiving naturopathy treatment?"

"Are you the doctor or am I the doctor? Why are you asking me instead? Where's Dr. Park? Ask him to treat me." Leia was dissatisfied, and she asked to see Johann.

Johann was the surgeon who performed the surgery.

However, Leia did not know why this doctor was the one who came to give her the physical examination every time she came back to the hospital for a follow-up.

"Dr. Park is in the operating room performing surgery now. I'm afraid he's unable to come out of the operating room now..." replied the doctor.

The wealthy and influential always wanted to see Johann and have him cure them.

However, Johann had to perform many surgeries. There were at least two surgeries he had to perform every day. How would he have the time to satisfy all his patients' requests?

Therefore, Johann would ask the other doctors to take over his patients who did not have any major health issues after the surgery.

The patients would follow Johann's arrangements as well. After all, they had gone through the hardest part, which was the surgery. There should not be any big problems after the surgery.

Leia was the only one who wanted to see Johann. The doctor thought it was embarrassing and made him look bad.

After all, he was in the same batch as Johann.

“Operating room? He knows I'm coming for a follow-up session today but he still went into the operating room?” Leia raised her pitch.

"Leia!" Queenie felt embarrassed.

Leia causing trouble would not only embarrass Queenie, but she would also affect Jack's reputation.

Leia was totally unsophisticated.

Leia turned around and stared at Queenie with hatred. Not only was Queenie not helping her now, but she was scolding her.

Queenie could not help but go into a flurry when she met Leia's eyes. The way Leia looked at her resentfully was nothing like how a daughter should be looking at her mother.

It was more like she was staring at her enemy.

Even so, Queenie was her mother.

"Doctor, do you suggest receiving naturopathy treatment too?" Queenie asked.

The doctor nodded and replied, "Yes. If Ms. Norman doesn't believe in my professionalism, she can choose to head to the naturopathy department in our hospital. The head of the naturopathy department is an experienced and famous naturopathist in our country."

Leia rolled her eyes and said, "Stop bragging. I know that Johann is the most famous doctor in your hospital."

"Leia, shut up!" Queenie thought Leia was being too rude to the doctor. Although Johann was the most famous doctor in the hospital, the other doctors were good as well. Otherwise, the hospital would not have taken them in and given them professional titles.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2570-Leia was stubborn. She sneered, rose to her feet, and walked out.

The maid immediately followed behind her.

Queenie remained rooted to the spot. Although the doctor had his own office, there was an awkward silence in the air.

"I'm sorry. Leia was being rude." As a mother, Queenie apologized to the doctor on behalf of Leia.

Although the doctor was pissed off by what Leia said to him, it was inappropriate for him to throw a tantrum at Queenie. He had no choice but to be considerate. "It's okay. People who are sick get upset easily."

Queenie let out a sigh and asked the doctor, "Doc, do you mean Leia can receive naturopathy treatment to nurse her health if she'd like to recover faster?"

"Yes. Receiving naturopathy treatment at this stage will help her. It won't affect her liver and kidney either." The doctor nodded and replied, "I can contact the head of the naturopathy department for you now if you'd like to see him. But Ms. Norman has to go there. After all, the doctor has to check her pulse to find out about her situation."

However, Leia dashed out of the room just now. She was probably on her way to the hospital's entrance.

"Okay. I got it. Thank you. We won't proceed with it at the moment. I'll think of a way. Please prescribe the medicine for her. I'll go and take the medicine." Queenie rose to her feet. She uttered each word politely, and her good manners calmed the doctor down.

The doctor prescribed the medicine for Leia.

After Queenie thanked him, she walked out of the office to pay for the medical bills.

The doctor could not help but sigh as he watched Queenie leave. People said that parents were their children's role models, but it did not seem entirely like it.

Even if the parents were well-mannered and sophisticated, it did not mean these traits would be passed on to their children.

The doctor had the urge to stop giving consultation to Leia and let Johann handle her himself at the thought of Leia questioning and scolding him every time she came here.

After Queenie paid the bills, she took the medicine and called the maid. She found out that Leia was already on her way back to the apartment when she asked the maid.

Queenie had no choice but to hang up the call and looked at the packs of medicine in her hands.

Every medicine had its side effects. Leia had just gotten a liver transplant, but her recovery was not as good as it was expected. Perhaps she was taking too much medicine.

What the doctor said came across her mind again.

Queenie heaved a sigh, picked up her phone, and called Luca.

She wanted to ask Luca to cure Leia.

Although their relationship worsened after Leia threw a tantrum at Luca back then, Luca was the only one who could help her now. Queenie thought of acting on Leia's behalf to ask for Luca's help.

Luca was a kind person. As long as Queenie was nice to her, it was likely that she would let bygones be bygones and help Leia to nurse her health. novelbin

The phone rang twice before the call was answered.

"Mrs. Norman, what's the matter?" Luca was a little surprised. They had just run into each other at the hospital just now, but Queenie was calling her now.

Luca reckoned that Queenie called not to ask about her, and there was a high chance that she called her for Leia's sake.

"Luca..." Queenie called her name and paused for a moment. It was hard for her to say it.

After all, Leia said such harsh things to her back then.

When Luca realized Queenie paused for a few seconds, she said, "Mrs. Norman, just tell me what's the matter directly."

Queenie took a deep breath. She had no choice but to ask Luca a favor for Leia's sake. "Luca, Leia went for her physical examination today. The results aren't great. Her recovery progress isn't going well as expected. The doctor suggested she try naturopathy treatment. So, I'd like to ask you."

Queenie could hardly utter the next few words. She clasped her phone tight and looked helplessly at the families who accompanied the patients here walking back and forth in the hospital. She was drowned in a helpless feeling.

She even started to doubt whether she did the right thing to adopt Leia back then.

It seemed like she had done a lot for Leia for her whole life, but she felt like it was the other way round when she saw Leia in this state now.

Luca secretly let out a sigh when Queenie stumbled over her words, unable to say the rest of her sentence.

Queenie had always been gentle. She was bashful and embarrassed to face such situations.

However, Queenie was willing to bite the bullet and call her for Leia's sake. How could Luca turn her down?

A child would never be able to reject their parents' requests.

Luca was also one of them.

Luca had no choice but to say, "Will Ms. Norman agree to it?"

"I haven't discussed it with her. Luca, can you put what happened between you and Leia aside and help me this once? Mr. Norman and I will be grateful to you," said Queenie.

Before Queenie finished her sentence, Luca could already figure out what she meant.

“If Ms. Norman agrees to it, I'll be willing to nurse her health. But I've been a little busy lately, and I'm only available tomorrow," said Luca. Even though Leia was ill-mannered, Queenie was the one asking for a favor now. There was no way Luca could reject her.

"Okay. I'll inform Leia. And I'll call you tomorrow. Let me bring Leia to your place," Queenie immediately replied when Luca agreed to help.

To her place?

Luca immediately said, "Mrs. Norman, I'll go over to your place."

"No. How can we do that? We're thankful that you're willing to help her. We can't let you come back and forth. So be it, then. I'll call you tomorrow," said Queenie. Leia needed Luca's help, so it should be Leia who headed to Luca's place.

"Okay..." Luca thought it would be fine since Amur had come back. If Leia agreed to let her help her, she could ask her to head to her apartment.

There were traces of people living in the apartment, so they would not doubt anything.

After the call ended, Rain asked, "You're going to help Ms. Norman to nurse her health?"

"She might not agree to it," replied Luca. Leia hated her so much. Even if Queenie was the one who asked Luca, Leia would not easily agree to it either.

Leia might even think Luca was trying to harm her.

"Okay. Remember to inform me if you're going out tomorrow," said Rain.

"Matysh..." Luca frowned.

"Yes. He's meeting those people more often these days. They must be up to something. You should be more careful when you're going out. Besides, Leia's friend, the one who looks like you, has been staying by Matysh's side. Our men saw her going to Leia's apartment to meet Leia. Perhaps they're planning something. Just to be on the safe side, I'll be protecting you whenever you're going out for the next few days," Rain explained to her.

"Okay." Luca was not against the idea that someone would be staying by her side to protect her.

As long as it was not related to the Island of Despair, having someone by her side would not affect her.

On the other hand.

Leia returned to the apartment. After she put her things, she returned to her bedroom.

Mandy had given her a call when she was in the car. The maid was beside her at that time, so it was inconvenient for her to answer the call.

Luca called her back when she was back in her bedroom.

"What's wrong?" Leia sat on the sofa and asked in a grumpy tone.

"Hey, who offended you? Why do you sound angry?" Mandy could sense Leia was in a bad mood by listening to her tone and she deliberately mocked her.

"Who else could it be?" Leia changed into a more comfortable sitting position. Then, Luca came across her mind. She asked, "By the way, when is that sugar daddy of yours making a move? I need money."
