Ch. 2791..2800

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2791-"Yes, yes. It's me." The caretaker grinned.

"What's your name?" asked the maid.

The caretaker scratched the back of her head and awkwardly replied, "My name sounds plain, and it's not very catchy. Just call me Sura."

Her code name was Surabaya, which sounded nice. However, there was no way she could tell the maid that her name was Surabaya in such a situation.

"Okay, Sura. The luggage is heavy. Come on. Let's put it on the bed first. I'll clear up the space in the wardrobe for you later," said the maid. The caretaker could help her to lighten the burden of taking care of Leia without encroaching on her interests.

Sura replied cheerfully, "It's okay... You can use the wardrobe. I didn't bring many clothes with me. I only have three sets of clothes. I'll just leave them in the luggage bag. The luggage bag won't take up much space even if I place it on my bed."

"Why do you need to put it on the bed when there's a wardrobe? This side of the wardrobe is yours," said the maid. She did not have many things either. Hence, she quickly moved her clothes to the other side of the wardrobe, freeing up some space for Sura.

"Alright. Thank you," Sura let out a sigh of relief when she finally moved into Leia's apartment.

It was not easy to fool Leia.

If it were not for Old Mrs. Norman, she would not have been able to stay here.

It would not be easy for the organization to get someone else to keep an eye on Leia either.

After settling Leia, Rain's surveillance team discovered that Mandy bought a last-minute plane ticket. She was getting ready to escape. They intercepted her when she was on the way to the airport.

Mandy had her eyes covered and her mouth taped shut with duct tape as she was forcibly taken into another vehicle.

She had no idea how long the car had driven before it finally came to a halt.

Mandy was pulled out by someone.

She stumbled along the way, but the person did not let her fall.

Mandy was eventually thrown onto a couch.

Mandy's hands were still tied, and her eyes were blindfolded.

Rain looked at the frightened woman in front of her who was about to get up. She wanted to escape.

Was she trying to escape with her eyes covered? Mandy was not giving anyone peace of mind. Rain made a gesture to her subordinate beside her, indicating that he should tie Mandy's legs.

The man nodded and picked up a restraining strap. Then, he tied it around Mandy's legs.

"Ugh! Ugh!" Mandy's fear increased by tons as she felt her legs being tied.

Who would want to kidnap her?

Was it Matysh's men? It was impossible! Matysh was currently at the police station. How could he make such arrangements?!

Was it the criminal organization that worked with Matysh?

Mandy also thought that it was unlikely. Matysh had been arrested. Those people should be panicking now. Would they make a big fuss by kidnapping her?

Once Mandy was tied up, Rain tore off the tape covering her mouth.

"Who are you?" Mandy immediately asked when she knew she could speak now. Her head turned around in confusion as she did not know which direction her kidnapper stood.

Rain remained silent.

Mandy pleaded, "Let me go. Don't hurt me. I have money, lots of money. I can give it all to you. Just let me live."

She knew that it was only a matter of time before Maytsh was forced to expose her.

Mandy could still live a good life abroad if she escaped now. Her life would be ruined if she did not escape.

If she was charged with assault for hurting Mr. and Mrs. Norman, she would be in deep trouble.

"Ms. Sanders, where did your money come from?" Rain muttered each word slowly. She took a recording pen out and pressed the record button.

Mandy was surprised to hear a woman's voice.

A woman?

She remembered that there was no woman in the criminal organization.

Moreover, this calm and composed voice sounded like it belonged to someone who was accustomed to such interrogations.

She did not sound like the wife of a mafia boss.

"I earned it! We're both women. Why are you making things difficult for me? We can work out a deal for both of us as long as you're willing to let me go,” said Mandy. Money was freedom to her, and she chose it over losing her freedom.

She would gladly give all her money to this woman and then board a plane to go abroad.

Mandy had good looks. She could still flirt with men to live a comfortable life abroad.

"How?" asked Rain as she guided Mandy step by step to give her the answers she wanted.

Luke was running out of patience. He did not want to wait for Matysh to slowly reveal Mandy's and Leia's involvement.

Was it not easier to catch Mandy and expose Leia?

Moreover, Mr. and Mrs. Norman were tired of being cooped up in the hospital's VIP ward.

They would only be safe when Leia was arrested.

After all, Leia had so many tricks up her sleeve. Luke even suspected that it was Leia who instigated the acid attack on Luca.

Mandy trembled. It seemed like she was being forced to tell the truth.

However, she would lose her freedom if she told the truth!

Mandy made up her mind not to say anything. "How did I earn it? I'm a woman. I have the looks. I earned it with my beauty. It may not be ethical, but it's still money. My way of making money doesn't bother you, right?" asked Mandy.

Rain sneered as she thought that Mandy was quite good at changing the topic of the conversation.

Mandy heard her and asked tentatively, "Did I unintentionally steal your business?"

Before she could finish her sentence, Rain slapped her in the face!

"Who do you think you are?!"

It was a powerful smack, leaving a clear five-finger mark on Mandy's fair face. She did not expect this woman to lay a finger on her!

Mandy could feel the metallic tang of blood filling her mouth. She feared that she might be bleeding!

She could not help but feel afraid.

She had initially thought that the woman was just trying to scare her, but she did not expect her to be so ruthless!

"I-I was wrong!" Mandy pleaded. She was worried that another slap would disfigure her.

Rain remained silent.

Mandy could not make up her mind. Therefore, she asked again, "Did I unintentionally ruin your relationship?"

Other than Matysh, she had entertained a few other men when she returned to the country.

Yet, Mandy had no feelings for these men. She only wanted to make as much money as possible in one night.

However, these housewives could not tolerate their husbands going out flirting with other women. Thus, Mandy wondered if this woman could be one of those men's wives.

Although the woman's voice sounded youthful, voices were all laced with deceit. A youthful voice did not mean it was a young woman's voice.

Rain did not say a word. novelbin

Mandy had no choice but to apologize, "I just wanted to make some money. I had no intention of ruining anyone's family. And those men, I was only with them for one night. I have no intention of ruining anyone's relationship!"

Apart from Matysh, the other men were like daily disposable items to Mandy.

Matysh was handsome, and he was wealthy. That was why Mandy stayed by his side every day, trying to seduce him.

Rain, who was also a woman, thought what Mandy did was despicable!

Rain initially believed that she was open-minded enough. She would not be too harsh to other women either. However, when she heard Mandy's confession, a thought came into her mind. This woman was truly something else! She was willing to sell her soul for money.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2792-Rain could feel her patience being worn thin because of Mandy.

She intended to probe Mandy into confessing her and Leia's crime.

It would be difficult to deal with Leia if Mandy refused to expose them.

The main issue was that Mandy and Matsyh were already involved in an illicit affair, and the money in Matsyh's account appeared to be legitimate. With just the illicit affair and the monetary exchange, the police would not have enough grounds to apprehend anyone.

As for the money that had been transferred from Mandy's account to Leia's, it would be even more difficult to use it as evidence.

They were friends, after all. Financial transactions between friends could not be considered illegal activities, right?

That was why Rain kidnapped Mandy.

However, Mandy was not a fool either. She continuously revealed immoral acts she had committed, trying to find out Rain's true identity.

She did not mention a word about any illegal activities.

Rain sneered, "You won't talk, huh? Mandy Sanders, a single woman who lives alone. Your source of income... Men. You used to be a citizen of A City, but you were adopted by an American couple when you were young and obtained American citizenship. The couple who adopted you passed away three years ago. Now, you're an orphan again. Am I right?"

Mandy trembled slightly, but her voice remained calm. What was the big deal if her background had been uncovered?

The information was not confidential to begin with. It was normal for it to be easily uncovered.

What Mandy feared were the people who had kidnapped her.

She did not know who they were and who sent them. After Mandy was slapped in the face, she realized that they might torture her to extract the truth by any means necessary.

There was no way she could bear that kind of suffering.

"So what? I merely slept with your man for one night. There's no need for you to treat me like I'm your rival." Mandy clenched her jaw. She did not want to go to prison.

Rain nodded repeatedly. She laughed instead of getting angry. "Alright. Ms. Sanders, don't blame me for being rude if you still refuse to talk. I have many ways to make you wish for death while keeping you trapped in endless fear."

A chilling sensation crept up Mandy's spine, sending shivers down her back as she trembled with fear. Mandy replied, "It's illegal to imprison and kidnap someone. You won't get away with it when I'm out. I won't press charges if you release me now!"

Rain noticed that Mandy was actually quite clever, even though she was a little naive...

She gestured for her subordinates to lift Mandy up.

Two men, one on each side, lifted Mandy without uttering a word.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!" Mandy continued to scream as Rain stuffed a cloth into her mouth.

She did not enjoy interrogating people.

This was something the police should do, but how could they possibly interrogate Mandy without any evidence?

Therefore, Rain could only assist the police in gathering some evidence.

With a cloth gagged in her mouth, Mandy was unable to speak. She was dragged away by the two men.

Rain followed behind and said, "I don't know if you'll ever have a chance to escape, but I remember you live alone. No one will notice you've been kidnapped."

Fear overwhelmed Mandy's heart.

She was right. Even if she died in the apartment she rented, it would probably take the stench of her decaying body for someone to discover her.

She had been kidnapped, but no one knew. Who would be able to save her?

Mandy thought of Leia, but her phone had been confiscated when she was forced into the car.

When she was on the way to the airport, she was worried that a warrant would be issued by the police at any moment. That was why she rented a car and drove to the airport. There were no drivers or anyone else...

Who would realize that she was kidnapped? Was there anyone who could save her?

Mandy was taken to a warmly heated room and tied to a chair.

Rain picked up a pipe and aimed it at Mandy's head. "Ms. Sanders, I'll give you one more chance. How did you get that money? What did they make you do?"

Mandy whimpered.

Rain whispered in her ear, "Are you seriously gonna tell me that you got that cash by sleeping around with men? I'm talking about the largest money transaction you've received. What did you do to get that

money?"

She pulled the cloth out of Mandy's mouth.

It took a moment for Mandy to catch her breath. How was she going to explain this? She could not!

Mandy stubbornly persisted, "I already told you that I got the money by sleeping around with men!"

"Fine. You're going to face the consequences for not talking." Rain stuffed the cloth back into her mouth and walked to the corner where there was a faucet.

The room had a separate heating system, but it was disguised as a water room.

Rain instructed the renovation contractor to install it that way when she moved in.

The others had no idea what the purpose of this room was, but she knew this room had a significant purpose.

It was one of the methods of coercion the Island of Despair had used before. It was more effective than all those injections. It was capable of breaking down a person's psychological defenses.

Drops of water would fall on the person's forehead at a consistent frequency while they were trapped in darkness.

The power of the dripping water might be small, but it could wear away even a stone. A person's psychological defenses would collapse with every drop of water while trapped in such a dark environment.

Rain had never used this method before. It was the first time she was employing it.

Their boss often said that leaving the Island of Despair meant living a normal life. The methods used by the Island of Despair should be avoided whenever possible.

Today marked the inaugural use of this technique!

Rain turned on the faucet. Then, she adjusted the water flow to its minimum. Then, drop by drop, the water fell on Mandy's forehead.

As she listened to her muffled cries, Rain smiled and instructed her subordinate, "Warm up the room a little. Make sure Ms. Sanders doesn't catch a cold."

"Got it," replied the subordinate. He cranked the room's heating temperature to the maximum.

The warmth from the heater enveloped the room, while the water droplets slowly soaked Mandy's body...

Rain shook her head, knowing that anyone would eventually succumb to this.

She glanced at her subordinate and signaled, "Leave one person to watch her here. Switch shifts every hour. I'll return in four hours."

She deliberately said these words for Mandy to hear.

Rain had already given her a chance, but Mandy did not appreciate it. The next opportunity would only come after four hours.

After that, Rain turned around and left.

While Mandy was being blindfolded and with her field of vision obscured, her other senses had been heightened.

Even though it was just a small water droplet, she felt as though there was a substantial amount of water drenching her hair.

However, it did not seem like it either. It took a long time for her hair to get wet...

Mandy took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down, but it was impossible.

The slow infiltration of the water only intensified her fear. Would it be long before she was completely submerged?

She wanted to kick her feet and check if there was accumulated water on the floor. However, her legs were tied up. There was not even a chance to kick!

Fear enveloped Mandy. Still, what was the use of being afraid anyway? There was nothing she could do now!

She did not even have the chance to call for help or negotiate with Rain.

Mandy remembered Rain mentioning that she would return in four hours.

Mandy felt despair, enduring this torment that eroded her nerves in this pitch-black environment, thinking that she would not be able to last for an hour.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2793-On the other hand, Leia was annoyed. She could not get through to Mandy's phone.

Every time she dialed, it would say that her phone had been turned off.

"Why would she turn off her phone at this time?" Leia dialed her number again, but her phone was still turned off. She gave up the thought of calling her, but she could not help but feel a pang of unease.

Could it be that Mandy had run away?

Leia thought for a moment and concluded that it was actually possible!

Mandy had American citizenship. Hence, she could head there without dealing with the hassle of getting a visa and such.

If she ran to New York, there was no way the local police would arrest and apprehend her even if Matysh exposed her. Moreover, Mandy did not commit a serious crime. Even though she might have to go to jail, she could live peacefully in the future without returning to the country.

Leia felt anxious.

Even though Mandy had escaped, it was unlikely that she would be caught by the police. Matysh knew not only Mandy's information but also Leia's.

If Mandy had escaped, she would have to escape as well.

Leia rolled out of her bed, opened a drawer, and found her passport.

She quickly packed her things when she realized her visa had not expired. Fortunately, Jack wanted to send her back to New York back then. Thus, he forced her to renew her visa.

After checking the validity period of her visa, Leia took out her suitcase and planned to pack her luggage and book a plane ticket to leave.

She was not worried about not being able to book a last-minute ticket. After all, there were plenty of flights from A City International Airport to New York every day. She could not be bothered with the details as long as she arrived in New York.

Leia knew she would only be safe after she got out of A City.

Sura shook her head when she heard the noises coming from Leia's bedroom. Judging from the loud noises she made, it seemed like she was planning to run away!

Sura cleared her throat and knocked on the door. Then, she asked, "Ms. Norman, are you okay?"

Leia ignored her.

Sura continued, "Ms. Norman, your father called."

Leia paused for a moment.

Jack and Queenie had had zero communication with her over this period. Whether it was a phone call or when she was on the VIP floor of the hospital, Jack and Queenie had always refused to meet her and ignored her.

Why bother calling her now?

Leia walked out of her room suspiciously, wondering if she had misheard what Sura said. "Who?"

Sura peeked through the door crack and saw the suitcase Leia had placed on the floor. There were a few clothes on top that were not folded properly. The sleeves dragged on the floor.

"It's your father, Mr. Norman. Oh, your father is Jack Norman, right?" Sura withdrew her gaze and put a smile on her face when she talked.

Leia put a lid on the doubts lingering in her mind and walked toward the landline that was in the living room.

The receiver was placed to the side, not covered, clearly indicating that someone had answered the call and then left the phone aside.

Leia picked up the receiver. She hesitated for a moment and spoke with an anxious tone, "Hello?"

Jack's voice came through. "Your mother and I will be officially discharged from the hospital today. Come back to the villa. Let's have a meal together."

Leia's heart raced uncontrollably.

They were going home?

They had not said anything to her all this while, nor had they given any updates to the public. That was why rumors had been spreading like wildfire on the internet.

The most credible news was that Mr. and Mrs. Norman were seriously injured and recuperating in the hospital. They did not want too much attention, which was why they did not announce the specific details to the public.

Leia almost believed that.

After all, given the circumstances back then, it was most likely that Mr. and Mrs. Norman had suffered brain injuries.

If their brains were injured, they would need to stay in the hospital for one or two months.

One or two months would not be enough for a complete recovery, which could explain why there had been no news from them.

However, Jack suddenly told her that they were being discharged and asked her to come home for a meal...

Jack wanted Leia to stay far away from them back then!

Leia's doubts grew stronger. She could not help but stutter, "Dad, how are you doing? How's Mom?"

"Let's talk about it when you come back home. Don't come back alone. Have someone keep you company." Jack sounded stiff, but at least he said what was on his mind.

Leia wanted to say something more, but Jack hung up the call.

The busy tone came from the other end of the line. Leia furrowed her brows as she thought about the situation.

Jack got discharged from the hospital after she was discharged.

Previously, Leia suspected that either Jack or Queenie was seriously injured, and the doctors and nurses were blocking the news. They even tried to stop the daughter of the Norman family from visiting her parents.

Perhaps it was because Jack suspected that she was involved in the matter, and that was why he deliberately avoided her.

Now, not only had Jack been discharged, but he also wanted to see her. Leia could not figure out the reason behind it.

In any case, she had to return home and try to get some information out of Queenie.

After all, it was impossible for her to get Jack to talk.

Leia hung up the call and walked to the kitchen. Then, she said to the maid, "I'm going back to Norman Residence. Come with me."

The maid gave her a troubled look.

Before Jack called Leia, he had already instructed the maid that she did not have to follow Leia and told her to let Sura follow her if she wanted to return to Norman Residence.

The maid intended to follow the instructions of the Norman family since it was Jack who paid her. She said in an apologetical tone, "Ms. Norman, I'm sorry, but I can't leave right now. How about having Sura accompany you?"

Leia noticed the bunch of ingredients on the kitchen counter. She could not help but feel annoyed. "Who told you to buy so many vegetables? And you're telling me that you're busy? Can't you handle things properly?"

The maid replied helplessly, "These are the dishes you specifically requested to have last night..."

Leia was at a loss for words. She was dissatisfied with the dinner she saw last night. She thought the maid had prepared dishes that were too simple, so she requested her to prepare a table full of various dishes.

The maid agreed. After all, Leia just needed to take food with less salt and oil.

"Forget it, I won't be having lunch today. Put the things in the refrigerator and prepare them later in the afternoon. I'd like to have freshly prepared dinner when I come back in the evening," said Leia. She knew she would be spending quite some time at Norman Residence today.

If she got the maid to accompany her, she would have to rush to make dinner tonight.

"Okay." The maid let out a sigh of relief when Leia did not insist on her coming along.

Leia then turned to look at Sura.

Sura always had that smile on her face.

It seemed like she never stopped smiling.

However, Leia hated it. "Can you stop smiling? You look ugly!"

Sura was speechless. Did Leia think she wanted to smile at her? It was all just an act. Sura had never smiled more than she had in her entire life when she was keeping an eye on Leia during this period of time.

"Okay." Sura stopped smiling.

Leia found her more pleasing to the eye and said, "I'm going to Norman Residence later. Pack your things and come with me."

"Okay," replied Sura.

"By the way, my mother previously bought a lot of supplements. Where did you put them?" Leia asked the maid. There was no way she could go back to Norman Residence empty-handed.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2794-"I'll go get them for you." The maid did not pocket the supplements. Instead, she took them out of the cupboard.

Then, Leia picked out two things. novelbin

When the maid realized that she was going back to Norman Residence, she could not help but wonder if Leia had any manners. If she was going home right now, she should know enough to bring something back home.

However, the things she took were all given to her by Queenie.

People were not that forgetful. If Queenie saw those supplements, she would know that they were the ones she had brought here before.

If Queenie found out, she would be upset.

Leia was being too perfunctory!

"Ms. Norman, these were all given to you by Mrs. Norman. If you send them back, she'd be very upset..." Surabaya said softly. No daughter would do something like that.

Leia rolled her eyes. "My mother likes thrifty people, and I can't finish the one she brought here. If I send them back, she doesn't need to get new ones, no?"

Surabaya stood aside and almost burst out in laughter.

Even back in the 1970s and 1980s, no one would do such a thing even if they were poor. Leia's stinginess was embarrassing!

If Surabaya had not known that the Norman family had never mistreated Leia, she would think that Leia had been mistreated her entire life for her to act this way.

In Norman Residence.

After finding out that Mr. and Mrs. Norman had been discharged from the hospital, Luca immediately arranged for Rhett to send her to their residence.

On the way there, she bought some supplements and fruits.

Although Mr. and Mrs. Norman were not suffering from any health problems, she still had to follow common courtesy rules when visiting them as they had just been discharged from the hospital.

"Good morning, Mr. and Mrs. Norman. I heard that you got discharged from the hospital, so I came to visit." Luca came to their door with gifts.

Although this was how it usually went with people who wanted to curry favor with the Normans, it was different with Luca.

The Normans knew that Luca was not there to fawn over them. She was here because she genuinely cared about them.

“Why did you bring over so many things?" Jack felt bad watching her carry two bags filled with things, so he quickly tried to help her.

"It's a good thing both of you got discharged. It would be impolite for me to come empty-handed." Luca smiled and did not let him help her. Instead, she went in and placed everything on the table.

"Is Luca here?" Queenie came down from the second floor as soon as she heard the news.

After confirming that it was Luca, a delightful smile appeared on her face. "What's all of this?"

"She said that it's a good thing we got discharged, so she can't come over empty-handed," Jack said in place of Luca.

Queenie disapproved. "You already bought so many things for us when we were hospitalized, but you're spending even more money on us now. Next time, all you have to bring is yourself. Don't bring us so many things. The two of us can't finish everything."

"These have a long shelf life, so it's okay." Luca felt guilty for causing her biological parents so much shock and pain...

Not only could she not fulfill her filial duties by their side, but she even brought them such disaster.

Luca could not help but feel bad at the thought of that.

"You'll be staying for lunch, right?" Queenie asked her to stay for lunch.

Jack cleared his throat. He wanted Luca to stay for lunch too, but how could Queenie forget what he told her just now?

It was only after Queenie heard Jack cough that she recalled their appointment with Leia.

Jack said that Leia wanted to escape.

Queenie had already found out everything Leia had done.

When Jack showed her all the evidence he accumulated, she could not believe that Leia, whom she had put her heart and soul into raising, had turned out into someone like that!

Queenie felt bitter.

However, what could she do about it? Leia had committed so many crimes. No matter how much she loved her daughter, she knew that the things she did had caused harm to not only her but Jack and

Bianca too.

She could not let Leia continue on like this.

Queenie stayed up all night in misery until she finally cleared up her thoughts, so when Jack told her that Leia wanted to escape, she agreed to his plan.

If this matter had nothing to do with Leia, the plan would not hurt her.

This was Queenie's last hope for Leia, so she wished that all the evidence from the police would show that Leia was not involved in harming them and Luca.

However, why would someone who was not guilty try to escape?

Therefore, even though Queenie still had hope, she had also come to accept her suspicions.

When Luca heard Jack's cough, she knew that he was not actually clearing his throat but reminding Queenie.

Luke had told her about Mr. and Mrs. Norman being discharged.

Luke also said that he had people watching over Leia. Now that Matysh's detention notice was out, Leia was definitely restless, so she must be trying to run away.

Thus, he also mentioned that the Normans were trying to keep Leia here.

Luca could tell by looking at them that they were trying to use this afternoon as an opportunity to keep Leia home.

If she stayed, it would be difficult for them to do anything.

Luca had no sisterly affection for Leia as she had framed her many times before, which led to the situation today. Luca also hoped that Leia would pay for what she had done.

Thus, she rejected Queenie's invitation. “It's okay, Mrs. Norman. I have to go back to the company. I'm about to take up a new project, so I need to head back and take a look."

"You're so busy at work," Queenie drew her eyebrows together. She knew that Luca was in the pharmaceutical industry, but she did not expect her to be this busy.

"Are there any healthcare professionals who aren't busy?" said Jack. If not for them, humans would not be living such comfortable lives.

The number of new viruses was increasing each day, and medicine was also advancing to prevent those viruses from taking the lives of people.

Although he was a politician, he knew that much at least.

Jack told Luca, "No matter how busy you are, don't forget to eat. Rest if you're tired, and don't burn yourself out."

"I know." Luca felt warm all over. Although she was not Bianca, she still won them over by being sincerely kind to them. "I'll be going back to work now, Mr. and Mrs. Norman."

If she did not leave now, Leia might show up any minute.

"Alright, stay safe on the road," Jack told Luca.

Then, Luca waved to the couple before leaving Norman Residence.

Not long after she left, Leia brought Surabaya to the family's mansion.

Leia stood in front of Jack and Queenie as she looked them up and down. She pretended to care about them. "Mom, Dad, I'm so glad that you're fine."

Jack felt disgusted by her acting.

Leia used to work in the entertainment industry. Although she did not have any outstanding works, she still made use of her resources to become the lead actress in many productions.

Many years after retiring from the industry, she still had her acting skills.

Just like right now...

Her tears and words of concern made tears well up in Queenie's eyes.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2795-chapter will update soon

 

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2796-Queenie showed Jack the markings on top and said, "The owner reserved these for me and made these markings."

Jack snorted coldly and deliberately said, "We bought these for ourselves!"

Returning the things Queenie had given to her only meant that they had bought these for themselves!

Leia's words were well said. If it were someone else's parents, they would be touched by their children giving such nice gifts.

However, the truth was, this was truly nothing.

These supplements were Queenie's sincere intention. They were bought at a high price, yet Leia had the audacity to spout such nonsense.

Did she think that no one would notice since the packaging was more or less the same?

Sura stood beside them, lowering her head innocently.

Sura initially wanted to remind them, but she did not expect Queenie to notice the anomaly. After all, the supplements had the same packaging and were from the same store.

No one would have thought that there would be markings left by the store owner on the packaging!

That was such a coincidence. Leia was destined to lose.

Just when she had finally won Queenie's sympathy by putting on a show, it all crumbled in an instant.

The tears Leia shed and the concern she showed turned out to be futile.

"Hmph! All those sweet talking and you still believed her. Now you know what kind of person she is. She's hopeless, huh?" Jack added insult to injury.

If Queenie could not see the truth, she would still choose to take Leia's side.

That would not be helping Leia, and it would get her in trouble instead.

A loving mother would always end up spoiling her child. Leia was a failure raised by the Norman family. Jack had accepted that. Hence, he had no plans to let her do whatever she wanted.

Queenie fell silent.

The emotions that were stirred by Leia's concern for her vanished the moment she saw the markings.

Leia said she cared about them and was worried about them.

However, she showed such insincere gestures.

Who would show their concern in such a way? Even those who tried to suck up to Jack knew that they should buy new products instead of giving away past gifts.

Queenie's heart grew completely cold toward Leia.

"Dear, let's do whatever needs to be done..." Queenie slowly muttered.

She then picked up the supplements.

"Why are you still keeping them?" Jack thought it was bad luck when he saw that Queenie intended to keep the supplements.

Leia's intentions were nothing but a joke!

"These are all good supplements that I paid for. They shouldn't go to waste," replied Queenie. She emphasized that she had bought them, not because they were a gift from Leia.

Sura grasped every detail of the conversation and understood that Queenie had given up on Leia.

A loving mother would no longer hold on to any hope after her child had disappointed her countless times.

Queenie had been pushed to the point where she could no longer show any affection toward Leia.

Queenie walked into the storage room.

Jack lifted his head and said to Sura, who stood beside him, "You did well. Thank you."

He expressed his gratitude because Sura had deliberately reminded Queenie and made her realize that everything Leia had done just now was an act.

Leia did not deserve any sympathy.

"Mr. Norman, you don't have to thank me. I just can't tolerate Ms. Norman's behavior," replied Sura, somewhat surprised that Jack would thank her.

However, what she did was only something ordinary.

Sura often engaged in similar actions. She would provoke Leia and add fuel to the fire when she was in a bad mood. Also, she made everyone hate Leia when she was in the hospital.

However, it would only work if Leia had such a personality to begin with.

Leia, who was changing her clothes upstairs, had no idea about the situation.

She was still basking in the satisfaction of her emotionally stirring performance just now.

So what if Queenie's affection for her waned? Did she not make herself loved again with her superb acting skills?

As long as Queenie's heart was captured by her, there was nothing Jack could do to her.

After changing her clothes, Leia refused to give up and called Mandy.

Mandy's phone continued to go unanswered...

When did she fly to New York?

Leia was uneasy. There was no way she could hit the timing right and expect when Mandy would land.

After all, Leia had no idea when Mandy left.

At noon, Rain headed to the water room after lunch.

"How's it going?" she asked the man standing guard at the door in a low voice.

"Everything's normal," reported the man. "Mandy's hands and feet are tied, her eyes are blindfolded, and her mouth is gagged. How could anything go wrong?"

Rain walked into the room. She could feel the dampness in the air. It gave her an uncomfortable feeling.

However, Mandy was the one suffering the most.

The air was so muggy that it made her feel uncomfortable. Her weakened nerves kept heightening her senses. She felt like she was drowning in hot water.

The dripping water was not hot, but the heating in the room made her feel wet and hot...

The heat could not dry her soaked clothes either. Her wet clothes made her feel neither cold nor hot but simply uncomfortable. It was an indescribable sensation.

Rain looked at her with disgust and took the cloth out of her mouth. "You've been here for four hours."

Mandy shivered when she heard Rain's voice. She did not say anything and just begged for mercy, "Please, spare me. I don't know anything." novelbin

"Do you have any idea what trouble you've caused? Do you think I'm a fool?" Rain could not be easily deceived. She threw the loaf of bread to the man nearby and said, "Feed her."

The man nodded. He split the bread into pieces and shoved them into Mandy's mouth.

Mandy suddenly realized that these people had no intention of killing her. They only wanted her to tell the truth by torturing and interrogating her.

If Mandy refused to eat or drink anything, they would take her to the hospital if her body could no longer take it.

That would be the perfect opportunity to escape!

Mandy immediately spat out the bread even though she was hungry. She refused to eat.

Starving for two days would not kill her.

These people would not dare to let her starve herself. They would be murderers if she died.

Rain sneered when she saw that Mandy refused to eat. "Are you sure you're not eating? I'll only be coming back in six hours."

Mandy did not respond.

Rain snorted coldly. Mandy thought that by doing so, Rain would be left with no options.

She grabbed Mandy's chin and lifted it up. Mandy instinctively opened her mouth.

Rain stuffed the cloth gag back into her mouth. "Starving yourself, huh? Do you think I'll just stand here and watch you die? You're too naive."

She walked out of the water room after that.

It did not take long before Rain returned. This time, she carried a small tray in her hands. There were syringes and a large bottle of nutrient solution.

She instructed her subordinates to set up a stand next to Mandy. The stand did not block the water droplets. They continued to fall rhythmically onto Mandy's forehead.

Mandy could hear the noises around her. However, she did not know what they were doing. The fear of not being able to see anything made her become even more

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2797-It was when a sharp pain shot through her hand and it felt as though a needle was piercing her vein did Mandy finally realize that Rain was giving her an injection!

A sense of fear rose from the soles of her feet and ascended to the top of her head.

Could it be that this woman was really capable of murdering someone?

Did she run out of patience and decide to poison and kill her?

Rain skillfully completed the procedure. Then, she chuckled and patted Mandy's cheek. She did it gently this time. "Do you think that starving yourself can force us to release you? Don't worry, I have IV drips that can sustain your life. You won't die! If you refuse to tell me the truth, I'll continue to give you drips until they aren't enough to keep you alive. Then, I'll insert a feeding tube through your nose and give you liquid food. That's how patients in vegetative states survive. You're destined to live."

Mandy felt despair. She did not expect Rain to be so cruel.

The idea that she just came up with was countered by her right away.

Moreover, Rain acted without hesitation. She did not even give her a chance to negotiate.

Rain said to the person beside her, "Someone will be coming to do a shift handover with you shortly. Remember to remind them to come in every hour and confirm whether Ms. Sanders is still alive or not. Oh, by the way, when the IV drip finishes, remove the needle for her to avoid blood backflow. She's too weak now."

Rain turned around and left after giving her instructions.

She sat in the living room. She furrowed her brows while reporting to Luke, "Mandy still refuses to say anything."

A person who feared death was afraid of going to prison too.

However, Mandy had not truly experienced a near-death encounter yet. She probably would not confess that easily and risk being thrown into prison.

"Keep going," replied Luke.

Mandy must confess everything.

In A City's detention center, Marcos and Ethan were sitting on the chairs. According to the laws of A City, family members were not allowed to visit someone who had been detained. Hence, Marcos did not come to visit Matysh as his nephew but as Ethan's assistant.

The police officers in the detention center escorted Matysh to the room.

Just as Marcos had expected, Matysh looked disheveled. His beard covered his entire face, and his hair was messy. Apart from his relatively clean cheeks, he looked like a refugee wandering on the streets of Russia.

There was an incredulous expression on Ethan's face. Where did the Matysh who was full of vigor go?

How did he end up in such a state after being sent to the detention center? "Mr. Matysh!"

Matysh ignored Ethan's expression and looked at Marcos. His wretchedness stood in stark contrast to Marcos' glamorous appearance.

They were never really close. They merely maintained a facade of harmony for the sake of Old Master Abaza and the family's reputation. Their hearts had long been detached.

Matysh felt displeased when Marcos happened to see him in such a state. He questioned in an annoyed tone, "What are you doing here?"

Marcos turned to look at Ethan with a calm expression on his face and said, "He asked me to come."

The three of them spoke in Russian, but the police officer who was assigned to watch Matysh could only understand English. As he was concerned that they might be discussing some unfavorable information, he tapped the table and reminded them, "English, please."

Matysh glared at him.

He spoke English with an accent, and he was not good at it. However, this man insisted that he spoke English. Would that not be another embarrassing moment in front of Marcos?

Matysh had always believed that he was superior to Marcos. After all, their bloodline and genes were different.

At this moment, he formed a stark contrast with Marcos. He was disheveled and haggard. It was a big blow to his sense of superiority.

Matysh refused to accept the current state of affairs.

He glowered at Ethan. His family had asked him to be his defense attorney. Why did he bring Marcos along?

Did he bring him here to laugh at him?

Ethan felt intimidated when Matysh glared at him that way. He wondered if he had made a mistake. Should he not have brought Marcos here?

He wanted to tell Matysh that Marcos was his nephew and he was here to help him in his time of need.

However, how could he help without understanding the entire situation?

"Mr. Matysh, I'm here to defend you. I just got all the documents from the police, but they're currently being translated. I'd like to hear about what happened at that time and the incident of breaking into someone's home and injuring the owners." Ethan straightened out his attitude, understanding that regardless of whether bringing Marcos was the right or wrong thing to do, what mattered the most now was to understand the full sequence of events.

He initially wanted to see the case file provided by the police.

However, he did not expect the detention center in A City to be so careless. They detained a foreigner, yet they did not even bother to prepare a translated case file. They claimed that their translator was on sick leave...

His translator was outside, translating those case files now.

Matysh had no intention of discussing the previous events, especially not in front of Marcos.

He did not expect things to escalate to such a serious extent, not to mention that the reason why the police officers came looking for him was not because of the home invasion case but rather the suicide of a teenager that happened several years ago!

That happened a couple of years ago. If the police had not brought it up, he would not have remembered the illegal act he committed that night.

Of course, he would never admit to such an act, but the evidence against him was substantial.

Therefore, Matysh had been waiting for Ethan to arrive.

Now, Ethan was here, but the first thing he did had already made Matysh unhappy.

He actually brought Marcos, the disgrace of their family, along with him!

What was he here for?

Could he use money to broaden his connections?

Matysh had no expectations for him. Their family had no power or influence here. It would be difficult for them to solve problems with money!

Moreover, the girl's father was determined to see him held accountable under the law. There was no way they could cover up the matter no matter how much money was offered.

That was why Matysh did not expect anything from Marcos.

The only thing Marcos could do was help to arrange a local lawyer to assist him and Ethan in the lawsuit.

However, Matysh dared not to use the lawyer Marcos found for him either.

If he were to go to prison in A City, Marcos would be the biggest beneficiary. The Abaza family would lose their heir and the only person left to inherit the family's wealth would be Marcos!

Ethan noticed Matysh's gloomy expression and his silence, which made him feel impatient. Was Matysh still acting like a spoiled young master at this point?

How ridiculous!

Matysh refusing to speak to the lawyer would not solve anything. Ethan continued, "Mr. Matysh, I understand that you're upset, but I can't help you if you don't speak the truth.”

Matysh gave his orders in an arrogant manner, "Ask him to get out of here."

He pointed at Marcos.

Ethan looked at Marcos in astonishment.

Marcos, on the other hand, immediately understood and said to Ethan with a smile on his face, "I told you. He doesn't like me. Still, you insisted on bringing me here."

Ethan's face reddened, realizing that what Marcos said was true. He did not expect Matysh to look down on Marcos when things had already come to this point.

If he were to get out of here, he would still need Marcos' help. Otherwise, why would Marcos come to A City?

"Please give us a moment." Ethan was left with no choice. The top priority now was to get Matysh to disclose the details of what happened.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2798-.Marcos did not mind being kicked out of the room.

After he left, he walked to the entrance of the detention center.

Kastov was surprised to see him walk out of the room. "Why did you get out so quickly?"

"Matysh doesn't want me to see him in such a miserable state." Marcos chuckled as he took a pack of cigarettes out of his pocket and handed it to Kastov.

"Thanks." Kastov took one cigarette out and commented on Matysh's behavior, "He's not wise at all. He thinks he doesn't need your help, but he'll regret it."

"He wouldn't trust me even if I am willing to help him." Marcos never did anything that was not worth the effort.

Therefore, he had no intention of helping Matysh.

Besides, there was no need for him to pretend to be eager to help Matysh. After all, it would be pointless since Matysh would not believe him.

However, Luke also said that he had to put Matysh under pressure. When one was on edge, one's vulnerabilities and shortcomings tended to become glaringly obvious.

When Matysh got desperate, he would implicate all those behind him.

Luke wanted Leia to go to jail, so Marcos might as well lend him a hand. After all, he owed Luke a favor. He was just helping out with a small favor, nothing more.

That was why Marcos showed up when Ethan asked him to come.

There was no way Matysh could remain calm when he saw him.

"Have you sorted out your matters?" Kastov asked again. He was close to Marcos. He came to A City to help Marcos to find his biological mother, and Marcos knew that.

"I've made the arrangements. There are others cooperating as well." Marcos looked around and wondered how long would Matysh be sentenced this time.

After Marcos left, Matysh glanced at the police officers.

Ethan had no choice but to tell the police, "I'd like to ask some questions."

The police officer understood what that meant. They were asking him to step aside. After all, Matysh had not been sentenced yet. His lawyer had the right to request for time alone when they were talking to each other.

The police officer left and locked the door.

"Mr. Matysh, it's just the two of us now. I'm here on behalf of Old Master Abaza to help you clear your suspicions and get out of here. Please, you must tell me the truth," said Ethan as he emphasized the importance of telling the truth.

He knew what kind of person Matysh was.

The rape case involving the teenage girl was certainly not a false accusation. Matysh must have done something like that for the police to file charges against him in relation to this case.

There was another case that was definitely related to Matysh.

Ethan had to find out about it. novelbin

"It was me. So, how do you plan to help me clear my name now?" asked Matysh.

Ethan furrowed his brows. Matysh readily admitted it. He replied, "Why don't you give me the details?"

"It's been so many years. How can I remember the details?" Matysh frowned as he thought of calling Ethan a blockhead.

He had never thought that there was anything wrong with playing with women. Hence, those women whom he could remember either had exceptionally outstanding looks or...

Matysh could not remember the teenage girl who committed suicide.

Ethan did not expect him to say that. A girl ended her life because of his insult.

Yet Matysh said that he could not remember anything about it.

His conscience remained untouched, devoid of any remorse.

Ethan could not help but feel repulsed. However, he was Matysh's defense lawyer. If he returned to Russia without handling this well, it would bring dire consequences to him.

He had to take a different approach and delve into another case. "What about the other case? It hasn't been long since that one. Please try to recall any details you remember."

Matysh felt annoyed, but he did not want to go to prison either. Therefore, he told him what happened.

Ethan finally understood that Matysh was charged with these crimes because of women.

Furthermore, the second case had to do with the woman right next to Luke!

Both cases involved women.

Was this karma for messing around with women?

Matysh asked with an impatient look on his face, "Any more questions?"

Ethan shook his head. Judging from his tone, if he continued to ask questions, Matysh would probably slap him in the face.

"Mr. Matysh, don't worry. I'll handle this well. I'll also hire the most renowned attorney in A City to help fight your case in the lawsuit," assured Ethan.

However, Matysh was unconvinced. Then, he reminded Ethan, "Bear in mind that you can't let Marcos intervene in this matter."

"Yes, Sir..." Ethan took note of it. He could see why Matysh wanted it that way. Even though they were on good terms back then, Matysh indulged in a life of pleasure while Marcos managed the family business for him.

At the end of the day, the two of them were rivals.

It was normal for Matysh not to trust Marcos. Ethan was too eager to help Matysh earlier and did not expect this.

"Also, you have to promise me that I'll be safe." Matysh clenched his fist tightly. This matter must be related to the Crawford family in A City.

Luke's company and M Group were in a cooperative alliance.

Perhaps Luke and Marcos were working together to put him in prison.

Once he ended up in prison, M Group would be completely under Marcos' control!

It was good news for Marcos.

If Matysh was able to get out safely, he would take over M Group as he had promised Old Master Abaza. He would stop fooling around and manage the company.

When he got married and had children, his child would be the first heir, and Marcos would have nothing to do with the company.

Therefore, it was beneficial for Marcos to lock him up in the prison of A City.

It was also a good thing for Luke.

Not only could it solidify his company's relationship with M Group, but his woman would also be safe.

The incident that involved the girl was so long ago. Could the police still find evidence to reopen the case? Besides, the Norman family...

Matysh only realized that everything that happened was targeted at him.

They were zeroing in for the kill.

A City had death sentences as punishment. If he committed something even more serious, Luke might just have him killed.

Ethan was taken aback. Promise?

How could he promise that?

Lawyers were like doctors in a way.

Before performing the surgery, doctors could not promise their patients that everything would be fine. They could only tell their patients that they would do their best.

It was the same for lawyers. They had no idea how it would turn out until the case reached its final verdict. Therefore, they could only tell their clients that they would do their best to defend them.

Even the most innocent clients were left in uncertainty, so no lawyer would dare to offer assurances, for the tides of evidence shifted with each passing moment.

"Mr. Matysh, I'll try my best to defend you," said Ethan. His voice sounded hoarse. He had no choice but to say that.

However, Matysh was not satisfied with his answer.

"I want you to promise me that I'll be fine!" His words rang out with unwavering conviction and power. He had had enough of these days in custody!

No cigarettes, no alcohol, and no women!

Even if he had a large sum of money in his bank account, it meant nothing when he was in this detention facility of A City!

The police officer refused to accept his bribes.

Ethan hung his head in despair and replied, "It's hard to say, but I'll do my best."

After that, Ethan stood up and left in a hurry. He asked the police officer who stood outside to open the door. He was afraid that Matysh's slap would land on his face if he were a moment late.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2799-Matysh watched Ethan leave hurriedly from behind with a gloomy expression on his face.

If he managed to get out of here, he would definitely leverage the power of his family and bring the Crawford family to utter ruins!

Watson Biopharmaceuticals.

Luca sat in her office, handling a pile of documents.

She could feel her head throbbing when she was going through the documents after conducting numerous experiments.

Luca picked up the landline on her desk and dialed her assistant's number. "Ms. Stone, please come to my office."

"Alright, Dr. Craw," replied Mo Stone. She hung up the phone and headed to Luca's office.

She knocked on Luca's office door.

"Come in."

Mo Stone pushed the door open and politely asked, "Dr. Craw, what can I do for you?"

"These documents have been sorted out. Help me take them out and make two copies of each. I need to deliver them to T Corporation," Luca pointed at the files in front of her.

Since Watson Pharmaceuticals did not have a general manager at the moment, all the important documents had to be reviewed by Luke himself.

After Luca finished preparing the budget report for the research funding application, she also had to hand it to Luke and wait for his approval.

"Alright, Dr. Craw. I'll take care of it right away," replied Mo Stone as she displayed a diligent and responsible work attitude. She picked up the documents, returned to the assistant's office, and began photocopying the documents.

Inside the assistant's office, Rhett was also busy with his work. There were a few professors' assistants there too.

"Are these Dr. Craw's documents?" asked Rhett. Luca was the only one in the entire office who had a pile of documents to be copied.

There were many tedious paperwork tasks for her to deal with before the start of a new project.

"Yes, they're all Dr. Craw's. Is it for the research funding application?" Mo Stone glanced at the contents of the documents and made a guess.

Dr. Jackson's assistant could not help but speak in an envious tone, "Dr. Craw is truly amazing. She finished one project so quickly and barely took a break, yet now she's starting another research project."

"Rhett, you're lucky to be working with Dr. Craw. But I guess you're also really busy, huh?" Dr. Linwood's assistant went along and teased him.

"It's all work. It's not like what you said." Rhett did not answer their questions.

"How much research funding is Dr. Craw applying this time?" asked Dr. Jackson's assistant.

Rhett remained silent.

Mo Stone knew the amount, but she did not answer either.

Dr. Jackson's assistant eventually turned to Mo Stone and asked, "Ms. Stone?"

"That should be kept within Dr. Craw's research team. Why? Are you thinking of moving to another team?" Mo Stone did not answer his question. Everyone was highly sensitive to this now after what happened to the general manager.

Even though it was not classified information, Mo Stone knew Luca's leadership style prioritized confidentiality. She did not want to risk losing her job. That was why she avoided mentioning it.

"Haha, look at what you're saying. Can I switch teams even if I want to? I don't have the qualifications or experience to be a researcher," Dr. Jackson's assistant laughed awkwardly.

In this field, they were only eligible to become researchers once they had enough experience.

Fresh graduates like them who had just started the job could only be research professors' assistants. They had no choice but to do some grunt work under the professors' guidance.

Who would want to be an assistant if they could be a researcher?

Being an assistant meant low wages and a heavy workload. Although they could participate in experiments, their involvement was limited to peripheral tasks. If the professor was kind enough, they might get some guidance. If it was the other way around, they would have to figure things out on their own while dealing with a pile of paperwork.

Assistants like Rhett, who worked closely with Luca in the laboratory and were responsible for many research tasks, were rare.

Everyone envied Rhett for having a competent and good-tempered boss who delegated research work to assistants.

If Rhett were to resign, they would definitely apply for a transfer immediately.

However, Rhett had no such plans, so how could they get the chance? The company only allocated one assistant to each research professor.

There was no way they could compete with him.

"So, are you still curious about Dr. Craw's research? Wait until she finalizes everything and it'll be revealed in the next meeting.” Mo Stone dropped a hint, implying that it was not something he should be curious about.

Although it was not classified information, curiosity could kill the cat.

Deep down, Rhett agreed with Mo Stone. These people had nothing better to do.

Dr. Linwood's assistant immediately stood up and headed toward the office entrance. "I need to prepare research records for Dr. Linwood."

Dr. Jackson's research team member wore a slightly awkward expression and changed the subject. "Have you heard that the company plans to hire another research professor?"

Mo Stone paused for a moment. She knew about this.

However, it was not decided yet.

She felt that the difference between having one more or one fewer research professor would not bring a significant impact on Watson Biopharmaceuticals. It was similar to whether the position of general manager was filled or vacant. It did not have much impact.

The department leaders appointed by Luke, whether it was Jason or someone else, were sitting securely in their respective positions. No one dared to make trouble.

Regardless of Luke or any other general manager, the subordinates continued to handle the company's affairs day in and day out.

Now, there were rumors that the company would be hiring a new research professor.

There was news of a new general manager not long ago too!

It seemed that actions were being taken, but the candidates who applied did not meet Luke's expectations. That was why the general manager's position remained vacant.

"Why aren't you talking?" Mo Stone, Rhett, and Dr. Jackson's assistant were the only ones in the office. None of them spoke, so Dr. Jackson's assistant found it boring.

"I heard about it. Are you planning to switch teams if they hire a new research professor?" asked Mo Stone. novelbin

"Why do you keep asking me if I'm switching teams? I'm doing fine here with Dr. Jackson," Dr. Jackson's assistant frowned. Dr. Jackson was currently the head of the department. Even though the official appointment had not been made yet, it was only a matter of time.

What was the point of leaving someone who was in charge for someone new?

"Why are you so curious since you're not switching teams?" Mo Stone placed the copied documents into their respective folders.

"It just feels a bit boring here. I just thought I'd find something to talk about," Dr. Jackson's assistant replied awkwardly.

There was more activity and communication among colleagues in the other offices.

Their assistant's office, on the other hand, was usually quiet.

Occasional exchanges were work-related, and they did not spend much time in the office. Their job was to assist the research professors with document processing whenever they were in the office.

Dr. Jackson's assistant was in the office today because Dr. Jackson had gone back to the university for a meeting. There was not much for him to do in the laboratory.

The other researchers also found him a hindrance when he tried to help. He had no choice but to stay in the office.

"We're busy," said Mo Stone, finally finishing the task of making duplicate copies of the documents as requested. Then, she left with the documents in her arms.

Dr. Jackson's assistant rubbed his nose and shifted his gaze to Rhett.

"Mr. Link?" He gently called out his name.

"Yes?" Rhett did not look up.

"Do you think Dr. Craw is easy to get along with?" asked Dr. Jackson's assistant.

"Yes," Rhett continued to work on the documents. The way he spoke gave the impression of a lack of genuine effort.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 2800-Dr. Jackson's assistant stopped talking when he sensed Rhett's attitude. He walked out of the office.

After Luca received the well-copied documents from Mo Stone, she checked all the documents once to ensure there were no errors. Then, she placed them all in her briefcase and left the office.

Five minutes ago, Luca had already asked Warren to wait for her downstairs.

Warren opened the back door of the car when he saw Luca coming down.

After she got into the car, Warren sat back in the driver's seat and drove to T Corporation.

Meanwhile, Marcos and the others returned to the hotel and began to take action.

After Marcos received a phone call, he opened the door and went downstairs.

Ethan happened to be walking out of his room the moment Marcos opened the door.

Marcos raised an eyebrow when he saw Ethan come out. He found out that there were no bugging devices or surveillance cameras inside the room with Kastov's equipment.

However, Ethan happened to open the door and come out of his room as soon as Marcos stepped out. Were there really no bugging devices...

Marcos glanced at the entrance of the suite and immediately understood.

"Where are you going?" asked Ethan.

"Mr. Crawford asked me to attend a meeting at his company," replied Marcos.

Ethan frowned. "Why are there so many meetings? You're not up to something, are you?"

"Do you have any idea how complicated it is to have two companies work together? Mr. Ethan, you're a lawyer. Do you even know how to handle collaborative projects?" questioned Marcos.

Ethan did not understand these, indeed.

He gave him a suspicious look.

"Mr. Ethan, Mr. Matysh has made it clear that he doesn't need my help. I can't do anything to help him with you watching me," Marcos reminded him. "What you need to do now is clear his name. The whole family is counting on you."

After that, Marcos turned around and went downstairs.

This time, Kastov did not accompany him because he had other plans.

Ethan clenched his fist and glanced at the door of Marcos' suite. He gave a cold snort. Then, he withdrew his gaze and returned to his suite.

Marcos did not need to send someone to watch over him. The one who did not trust him was not Ethan but someone else in Russia!

Marcos went downstairs and headed straight to the hotel's parking lot.

Luke had arranged a chauffeur for him.

Marcos got into the car, and inside, Gale was sitting there.

"Hello, Mr. Marcos," Gale greeted him. He wore the exact same clothes as him.

"Thank you for your hard work," said Marcos. Luke had sent Gale to assist Marcos. Gale even dyed his hair the same color and had the same haircut as him.

He would be another Marcos if one did not look at his face.

According to the plan, the chauffeur would drive to T Corporation and park at the entrance. Gale would play his role and get out of the car at the entrance. Then, he would enter T Corporation.

After that, the chauffeur would enter the parking lot and exit through another exit. He would then take Marcos to the outskirts of A City.

"The truth is, I should be thanking you for giving me a break," Gale said with a smile on his face.

Since he had to impersonate Marcos, all the remaining tasks were left to Rain to handle.

All he had to do was play the role of Marcos. After he entered T Corporation's building, he would head to the reception room. Then, he would lay low and wait for Marcos' text. Upon receiving it, he would pretend to get into the car and return to the hotel. He would be able to leave after that.

It was such a simple task. It gave him a lot more free time too.

Besides, if he wore a wig and changed his clothes, it was alright for him to leave T Corporation!

"Mr. Gale, there seems to be a car following behind us." The chauffeur noticed that a car was tailing them.

"Don't worry about it. Keep driving," replied Gale. He had put on a cap when he got into the car earlier. Even if a car was following them, those people would not discover their plan.

Moreover, their car had tinted windows, making it quite difficult for others to take a look at who was in the car.

Marcos, on the other hand, snorted coldly.

That Russian guy did not trust him indeed.

Not only did he send Ethan but also someone else...

However, Marcos had a few good friends in A City. How could that trash possibly track him?

The car arrived at the entrance of T Corporation, and Gale handed Marcos the same cap. "Mr. Marcos, put this on. It's new."

"Thank you," replied Marcos as he put on the cap.

Gale took off his cap, lowered his head a little, and pushed the car door open before striding into T Corporation.

Those working at T Corporation would recognize him with just a glance. Hence, no one stopped him.

Gale walked quickly to the elevator and faced away from the entrance. He pressed the button.

At the same time, the chauffeur arrived at the underground parking lot and then left T Corporation through another exit.

He sent Marcos all the way to the outskirts of A City.

"Mr. Marcos, Boss said that it might not be easy to find the right place at this time. I can't drive into these narrow alleys, so I'll wait for you here. If you get tired, feel free to come back and rest in the car. It'll be easier to find her at around five or six o'clock," explained the chauffeur.

It was working hours now. Even though they were on the outskirts, most of the residents here were office workers.

People were busy at work at this time.

Moreover, Marcos' mother lived here alone. It was unlikely that she was unemployed. She probably had a job too.

Luke believed that it would be highly improbable to find her here at this time.

The doors of every household were tightly closed during working hours. It would be difficult for Marcos if he wanted to ask about a middle-aged foreign woman with ethnic features.

After all, those who struggle to survive in A City would seek slightly cheaper rent compared to the prices in the city center.

Most of the people here were migrants. They dealt with immense life pressures. Also, they usually would not bring their elderly parents or children over.

As a result, the suburbs were even quieter than the city center during working hours.

Marcos nodded and replied, "Okay."

He pushed the car door open while wearing the cap given by Gale.

Marcos did not think that he would find his mother after one or two attempts.

If it were that easy, it would not have taken over a month for Luke's men to find this place.

Finding someone was never easy.

It was especially so when he was looking for someone who was believed to have passed away over 20 years ago. ...

Luca arrived at the door of Luke's office with the documents in her hands. She knocked on the door and only pushed it open after she heard Luke say, "Come in."novelbin

"Mr. Crawford, there are some documents that need your review." Luca pushed the door open. She initially intended to have Jason deliver them, but no one was in the assistant's office.

She went to check the secretary's office, but no one was there either.

With both the assistant's office and the secretary's office empty at the same time, Luca could not help but wonder if the CEO's office was unoccupied too.

However, she thought it was unlikely since she had informed Luke earlier, so she knew that he was in the office before coming here.

No one was there to help Luca deliver the documents to him. Hence, she had to do it herself.

As she uttered those words, she realized that Gale was sitting on the sofa in Luke's office.
