Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 3201-Settled An Old Score The assistant apologized sincerely. He knew he had made a mistake. If he had taken a moment to think things through, he would not have made such an error.

He was frustrated as well. Even if the suspect was a foreign noble, using such despicable tactics to frame Walter was simply too much!

There was a knock on the lounge door, and a voice came from outside," Mr.

Long, it's time for the court session."

"Okay." Walter picked up the document bag, put his phone on silent, and walked out of the lounge. He entered the first criminal courtroom, took his seat at the plaintiff's lawyer's position, and waited for the session to begin.

Before long, the defense lawyer and all court staff were in place, ready to start the proceedings.

Matysh sat at the defendant's table with a grim expression on his face. He noticed that Marcos was also present.

His expression grew even darker.

Did he come here just to watch how these A City citizens were targeting him?

Matysh was really annoyed. Ethan had repeatedly assured him that this plan would definitely succeed, but it turned out like this.

Not only did the mercenaries fail to take him away, but they were also completely taken down. Now, he was sitting here, facing the judgment of A City's law.

Matysh could not wrap his head around it. He had always thought that he could still escape. How did everything suddenly turn out like this?

He was about to face judgment.

Every one of them looked at him with disdain. Was prison in his future?

Sitting next to Matysh was an interpreter who had been arranged by Ethan.

Ethan had insisted on putting on a full show even though they were planning to break Matysh out. They needed to appear sincere to the city1 s authorities to lower their guard.

Matysh thought he did not need the interpreter, but now, he did.

Matysh scanned the courtroom, his gaze finally settling on Marcos.

He was also looking back at him.

Marcos' expression was calm, but Matysh could sense his emotions underneath.

There was excitement and pride. It was as though he had finally settled an old score.

Matysh narrowed his eyes. He was now trapped in A City, and he could not believe that a nobody who had never dared to stand up to him before was challenging him!

He turned his attention back as the interpreter began translating.

Matysh did not understand the proceedings, so he had to rely on his defense attorney. By the end of the morning, there was no verdict yet, but Matysh did not see this as a good sign.

When the interpreter told him the session was temporarily adjourned and would resume in the afternoon, Matysh knew they were in a hurry to convict him.

He suspected Ethan's failure had raised the authorities' alertness.

Matysh watched the court officers approach him to take him away. Before he left, he shot a fierce look at Marcos.

He knew Marcos had a hand in the failure of his plan. Ethan might be worthless, but the people he paid a hefty sum to were not. The plan would not have failed so easily without Marcos’ interference!

In the end, Matysh could not hold back and shouted at him, "Marcos!"

Marcus remained silent. His eyes were on Matysh as he left. Finally, a smile appeared on his lips.

Matysh would eventually have to pay for what he did to Marcos' parents.

Although Marcos did not personally send Matysh to prison, it felt satisfying. At least, Matysh would spend many years in A City’s prison before being sent back to Russia to continue his sentence.

Marcos was confident that once Matysh was imprisoned this time, he could ensure Matysh continued to stay in prison when he returned to Russia.

Matysh had done many terrible things without having to face the consequences.

Now, it was time to hold him accountable for each one.

Marcos took out his phone and sent a message to Luke, who had been helping him all along: [Thanks.] Luke quickly replied to his message: (My pleasure.] Marcos then asked: [How is Mr. Norton?] Luke responded: [He's in surgery now. We'll know more after they remove the bullet.] Marcos: [Once you get any updates, inform me right away. I can't swing by the hospital right now. I hope he understands.] Gordan took a bullet and got injured for intervening in Ethan's plan to help them.

However, Marcos could not visit him yet.

Ethan's men were still watching him.

Even though Marcos was not directly involved in the current events, surveillance from Russia remained relentless. Whether he lounged idly in hotel rooms all day or explored A City's sights, someone shadowed his every move.

Their sole purpose was to keep an eye on him. They documented every interaction and activity, then fed the intel to Ethan, who relayed it back to Russia.

This was the reason why he could not even meet with Sarah.

There was nothing Marcos could do about it.

The family in Russia still pinned their hopes on Matysh. Only when their hopes were utterly shattered could he begin to seize control of the family bit by bit.

His strategy involved unveiling the family's darkest secrets to the world, ensuring the public knew the truth. Ultimately, he aimed to breathe new life into the family.

He wanted to leave the family's dirty past behind once and for all.

Luke: [Got it.] He was sitting outside the operating room.

When Rain informed him that Gordan had been shot, Luke immediately took him to the hospital.

Johann continued to be the surgeon attending to Gordan. Although the injury on Gordan's hand posed no immediate threat to his life, there was concern it might affect his nerves.

Inererore, the full extent of Gordan's injury remained uncertain, and Johann could not makgany O M conclusions until he completed the surgery. They would have to wait to see if the injury would affect Gordan's ability to carry out his future missions.

While an ordinary person might not require exceptional hand dexterity, co demand are on the the.

• reactions and responses, were exceptionally high.

Thus, the true implications of the current situation would only become clear once the surgery was completed.

Luke sat there waiting. His expression was calm, but a closer look revealed a cold indifference in his eyes.

Gale and Rain were there too. Gale, unable to sit still, began pacing around.

Even though he often argued with Gordan, they shared a deep bond of friendship.

Hence, he was worried about Gordan's condition.

However, his constant pacing annoyed Rain. She glared at him and reminded him, "Can you calm down and sit quietly instead of walking around?"

"I'm worried about him!" replied Gale helplessly.

"Well, you can't go in there to perform surgery yourself. Can't you just sit down and wait? Jaké a due from the boss!" Rain pointed at Luke, who was sitting calmly and seemed to be deep.

in thought.

Gale had no choice but to sit down, replaying the events in his mind.

He had been too careless. Their plan had many flaws, and the other party exploited these weaknesses.

Still, there was nothing they could do about it now.

If only he had been able to shoot back then.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 3202-All This Happened Because Of Me If he had been able to shoot at that moment, he would have taken out those mercenaries in the first place. He was also in a good position for an attack at that time.

Ultimately, Gordan's injury was partly his responsibility. If it were not for protecting him, Gordan would not have been exposed to the mercenaries.

Gale sat there, replaying the scene over and over in his mind, still regretting not having fired.

All the police officers were focused on his situation back then. If Gale had shot, it would have been difficult for Luke to explain things to the police.

“It's all my fault!" muttered Gale, taking all the blame on himself.

Rain knew he felt guilty and heaved a sigh.

Luke watched the two of them, who were affected by Gordan's situation. He remained silent, knowing that Gordan's condition was still uncertain and all they could do was wait.

Two hours later, the operating room door opened, and Johann came out.

'The surgery was successful. Here's the bullet." Johann held up a sealed bag containing a bullet.

Since the police did not know Gordan's identity, the extracted bullet did not need to be handed over to them.

Gale took the bag and examined the bullet. He glanced at it and said, "A 5.56 caliber bullet. They were using G36 assault rifles."

Everyone turned to look at him.

'The countries that use the G36 the most are the UK and Spain. Their armies prefer this gun, so when their veterans become mercenaries, they often use this gun. So…"

Gale did not finish his sentence. He suspected the mercenaries came from these two countries. Then, he asked Johann, "How's Gordan?"

Johann was not familiar with firearms, but he was an expert in medicine."

Consider him lucky. When I started the surgery, I realized the bullet had gone through his upper arm and was lodged in the bone without penetrating it.

"The main nerves weren't damaged, but there's still some injury. He'll need rehabilitation to fully recover. Luckily, you have a dry-needling expert around.

Perhaps Dr. Craw can help."

"Alright, when will he be out?" asked Luke.

"In a little while. The anesthesia hasn't worn off yet," replied Johann. As he recalled the surgery, he added, "I must say, Gordan is stubborn. He refused to take general anesthesia even when he needed surgery. I was totally speechless."

Johann complained as he remembered the scenes in the operating room.

When Johann asked why Gordan would not accept general anesthesia, his answer was simple and blunt.

"You know what? When I asked why he wouldn't go under, he said he was worried he wouldn't wake up in case of danger…"

Luke was not as frustrated as Johann. He explained it on behalf of Gordan, "He's been through too many dangers. That’s why he doesn't want to be in a fully unconscious state."

"I get that, but this is a hospital. What danger could there be? I was puzzled and persuaded him for a long time. Finally, I told him that his hand would be useless due to blood loss without surgery, and he agreed to use general anesthesia…" continued Johann.

Only after the anesthesia took effect and Gordan was fully quiet could Johann focus on the surgery.

He was not exaggerating about the danger. The bullet's path and the depth it was lodged in the bone could not be seen on the scans. He had to operate to see what was really going on inside.

"Dr. Park, when can we see him?" asked Gale.

"You can't go in. He'll be taken to his ward once he wakes up. You should go to the ward instead. By the way, even though his injury doesn't need special care, someone still needs to stay with him tonight.

"He just underwent general anesthesia and needs to lie down for eight hours.

Some people have strong reactions to the anesthetic, so someone must stay with him. I'll hand him over to another doctor since I won't be here," explained Johann.

He was not a doctor working at this hospital, but Luke decided to bring the patient here to keep things low-key and then had Johann come over to perform the surgery.

Luke knew the hospital director, who agreed to admit the patient and arranged for medical staff to assist with the surgery.

It was similar to how the Mallory family had arranged for Pierre.

"Alright, we'll go to the room and wait." Luke nodded. Although Luke remained expressionless, he was relieved to know that Gordan was fine.

As for the follow-up treatment, Luca would surely offer help without needing to be asked. He had not informed Luca about Gordan being shot to avoid making her feel guilty. Especially since Matysh was after her.

If Matysh had not come to A City, none of this would have happened.

Luke knew Luca would feel guilty, but he could not say much. Luke had no choice but to head to the VIP room with Gale and Rain.

They had the director announce that Gordan was admitted for a fracture surgery. The assistants, nurses, and anesthetist involved were all trusted by the director. Hence, they would keep the secret.

As they entered the VIP ward, Luke received a message from Luca: [I saw a news report saying someone got shot. Who was it?] Even though she was in the lab, she had been watching Matysh's live broadcast.

Before the court session, the media reported that someone was shot.

during the transfer of a prisoner. She qickly picked up on the news that someone had been shot and knew it was not a police officer. The content.

The media would have specified if it were a police officer. Since the person who was shot was not an officer, it had to be one of the operatives.

Therefore, when she saw the news, she messaged Luke to find out who was hurt and how severe the injury was.

Luca: [Mr. Norton? Which hospital are you at? I'll take the afternoon off to visit him.] Luca felt guilty. If it were not for Matysh's interest in her, none of this would have happened.

However, she also knew that everything seemed inevitable. If Matysh had not come to A City for her, Marcos would not have come either.

Sarah would not have reunited with her son…

It seemed like all these were meant to happen. Luca knew she could not blame herself.

Luke: [You don't have to come. I'll be here, and he's out of danger after the surgery.] Luke understood her concern.

Luca: [How can I sit in the lab and work when all this happened because of me?

Luke, please let me come and see him.] Luca insisted on going after she read Luke's message.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 3203-Do You Think She's Interested In Boss?

Luke: [Alright, I'll send you the location.] Luke knew what Luca was thinking. If he really stopped her from coming, she might feel guilty, which could lead to serious consequences.

When Luca received the location from Luke, she turned around and said to Rhett, who was busy working behind her, "Mr. Link, could you help me take the afternoon off? Something came up."

"Sure, Dr. Craw," Rhett agreed.

None of the other researchers said anything either. After all, Luca handed tasks to them every day. Thus, Luca taking a leave would not affect the progress of their projects.

In fact, their research group was known for not being affected by the lead researcher's absence.

It was not that Luca was dispensable but her research plans were wellstructured, and the team just needed to follow them.

Moreover, their current research, like the previous one, was progressing smoothly without any major issues.

Luca waited at the company until noon. She headed straight to the hospital without getting lunch.

Knowing that Gale and Rain were also there, she bought a few boxed lunches on the way and rushed to the hospital. When Luca arrived at the hospital, she walked to the door of the ward Luke had given her the number for.

She knocked and then pushed the door open.

'You're here." Luke nodded as he saw her walk in.

Luca nodded back and glanced around the room. Besides Luke, Gale and Rain were also there. She put down the boxed lunches and walked to Gordan's bedside.

"Mr. Norton," greeted Luca, noticing that he did not look well.

Considering he had just undergone surgery, his condition was understandable, so she was relieved.

"Bianca…" Gordan greeted her before closing his eyes again.

Since there was no one else in the ward, it was okay for him to address her like that.

"Was it a general anesthesia surgery?" Luca asked the other three.

'Yes, general anesthesia," replied Luke.

Luca understood his weakness better.

She said, 'You'll feel uncomfortable after general anesthesia. Mr. Norton, please rest for now. You can't drink or eat anything for the first eight hours after surgery.

Please bear with it."

Gale reassured her, "Don't worry, I'll take good care of him. Dr. Park just explained to me how to take care of a patient after general anesthesia.

Relax, I can manage this."

After Johann mentioned someone needed to stay overnight to take care of Gordan, Gale decided to stay.

After all, Gordan got injured because of him.

Given it was a gunshot wound, hiring a caretaker was out of the question, especially since their discussions would be inconvenient with an outsider present.

'Yes, if you see Mr. Norton's lips are getting dry, remember to use a cotton swab to moisten them," reminded Luca. She thought this task might be unsuitable for a man.

However, there was no other choice. Gordan was alone now, and given the gunshot wound, hiring a caretaker could cause complications.

"I know what to do. Don't worry," replied Gale. Johann had explained everything to him, so he knew what to do.

Luca nodded, took another look at Gordan's condition, and then sat down next to Luke.

"How many mercenaries?" asked Luca. She was confident that Luke had already checked the ward for any surveillance and bugging devices. Since Gale and Gordan felt safe calling her Bianca,' it was clear there were not any in the ward.

Therefore, she did not need to worry.

"Eight,” answered Luke.

"Have they all been dealt with?" Luca asked again, thinking about what Gordan had mentioned yesterday. Each mercenary cost at least a million US dollars, totaling at least eight million US dollars.

They had spent at least eight million US dollars to rescue Matysh.

To ensure Matysh’s safety, they had indeed spent a large sum of money. Still, what could it change after spending such a large sum of money? They still failed.

Gordan was injured as well.

Suddenly, Luca thought of Vivian. In the past, if Gordan had been injured, Vivian would have been very concerned, perhaps even staying by his side day and night to take care of him.

Now…

Their relationship had already ended, and Luca had no intention of notifying Vivian. After all, they were no longer involved with each other.

Even though Luca did not know how Vivian would react when she heard about Gordan's injury, given how much she wanted to avoid Gordan back then, she probably would not do anything now either.

Luca pondered for a moment and then sat with Luke.

Luke was busy handling company matters since they were quite important.

Hence, he had to stay in the hospital ward to work.

"Some are alive and under police control," replied Gale.

Luca lowered her voice and said, 'You guys haven't had lunch yet, right? I bought lunch. Eat up."

"It's okay. We're not hungry." Rain shook her head.

"Have some even if you're not hungry. Considering what happened this morning, eat up. I don't know your preferences, so I bought grilled cheese sandwiches for everyone," Luca said firmly, pushing the boxed lunches into their hands one by one.

Finally, she handed the last one to Luke. "Eat first. You can continue later."

"Okay." Luke nodded.

The three of them sat on the couch and chairs, eating their lunch.

Before they finished their lunch, the nurse, Sunny, came in to change Gordan's saline solution. When she saw them having lunch, she asked," You're having lunch?"

Sunny glanced at Luke a couple of times, only coming back to her senses when she noticed Luke"' passing some french fries to Luca.

The two behaved and interacted intimately.

'Yeah, we are," replied Rain.

She hung the saline solution and reminded them, "Once this bag is finished, ring the bell to call US to change it."

"Alright, we'll pay attention," replied Gale.

Sunny shot another glance at Luke again. He was now putting some lettuce from his lunchbox into Luca's.

Luca could not eat much, so she put some lettuce back into his lunchbox. Their interactions were getting even more intimate.

Sunny left with sadness in her eyes.

Gale cleared his throat and teased, "Boss, you've broken another woman's heart."

Luke ignored him.

Luca was curious. "Which woman?"

'That nurse just now. She couldn't take her eyes off him when she came in earlier. When she say the intimate interaction between you and Boss.

just now, she…" Gale put down his lunchbox and made a dramatic gesture of a breaking heart. "She was heartbroken."

Luca shook her head helplessly.

Luke did not respond to Gale's exaggerated performance.

"Don't you guys believe me?" Gale, seeing no response from Luke and Luca, hurriedly added, "I look pretty good, right? Just like Gordan?"

As he spoke, he pointed at Gordan, who was lying on the hospital bed.

The atmosphere in the ward relaxed a lot after everyone knew that Gordan was not seriously injured, and they were not as nervous anymore.

Luca nodded.

Luke coughed discontentedly when he heard her agreeing that another man looked good.

"But Luke is the most handsome," Luca quickly added with a smile on her face.

Your standards are different from those of the world. Other women would give more than a few glances afUS, but fhat nurse, Sunny, only had eyes on the boss. Do you think she's interested in him?"

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 3204-Become A Wanted Criminal In A City "Really? I didn't notice." Luca gave a faint smile. She did not pay much attention to these matters.

She had confidence in Luke.

Other women might be interested in him, but he showed no interest in them.

Even when Luke was suspected of 'cheating', it turned out his supposed affair was with his wife. Did that still count as cheating?

At least in others' eyes, it did.

However, in her heart, Luca did not consider Luke's actions as such. Her true identity was Bianca, and Bianca was her. Luke had always chosen only her.

Moreover, he chose her knowing her true identity.

Luca had seen the DNA test report the kids had secretly conducted. It was quite early on, before she and Luke had gotten together.

It was after seeing this report that Luke gradually began showing unusual behavior toward her.

"Rain, have you noticed?" Gale looked at Rain.

Rain nodded without hesitation. "Yes, that woman does indeed have some interest in Boss, but he has never responded to her, not even with a glance."

"That's because Boss has someone in his heart. Have you ever seen him be kind to anyone besides Bianca?" teased Gale, even bringing up Luke and Luca.

"You've got quite the nerve, teasing Boss and Bianca like that." Rain slightly furrowed her brows. If Gale wanted to get punched or yelled at, he should not drag her into it, right?

"Heh". Gale realized his audacity. Normally, he would not dare to do so, but he got carried away today. He had no choice but to explain, "Isn't the atmosphere in the ward dull? I just wanted to lighten it up a bit."

"Be careful. Boss might want to lighten it up too, by punching you," Rain whispered in his ears.

Gale froze. He could not help but sit up straight.

It was not that Gale was afraid Luke would punch him. Luke's mind was focused on business. Even though he was good at fighting, it did not necessarily mean he could beat him in a fight.

However, even if he could not physically dominate, there were other ways to torment him!

Gale remembered Luke's methods of torture and could not help but shudder.

He could make him do difficult, thankless tasks…

Just thinking about it made Gale shake his head vigorously. No way, this could not happen.

The moment he shook his head, he glanced at Luca, hoping she could rescue him. He had just been talking casually, seeking a quick exchange of words. He did not really intend to tease them…

However, Luca was looking at Gordan, who was on the hospital bed, lost in thought.

Gale felt despair. While he thought about how to change the topic of conversation, Luca finally spoke up.

"Did Dr. Park say anything else after he finished Mr. Norton's surgery?"

asked Luca.

"Yes, yes!" Gale quickly answered, relieved that the conversation was back on Gordan.

"Dr. Park said Gordan will need rehabilitation therapy, so he might need your help."

"Huh?" Luca glanced at him curiously. "What do you mean? What can I do?"

"Dry needling," replied Luke.

Luca suddenly realized what kind of help Johann needed and nodded." Yeah, sure."

If she could help, she would definitely do it.

Luca even planned that once Gordan could eat normally again, she would prepare soup every morning and have Aunt Nelle deliver it to the hospital. Even though it was a bit of trouble, it was the least she could do.

Besides, Gordan was picky, and the hospital food probably would not suit his taste.

Perhaps she could even get Aunt Neile to help with lunch.

With that in mind, Luca came up with a plan.

"Hmm…" Gordan, who was on the hospital bed, suddenly made a sound.

Gale instinctively walked to the bedside and asked, ’What's the matter? Is your hand hurting?"

Gordan slightly narrowed his eyes. If he had not been injured, he would not have known that Gale had this side to him.

Gordan shook his head but felt a bit dizzy again. He could not help but secretly blame Johann.

Could they not just have anesthetized his arm?

It was all Johann's fault. He knew how badly he reacted to general anesthesia, which was why he insisted on local anesthesia. However, no matter what Gordan said, Johann insisted on full anesthesia.

Now, he felt all woozy, with a sense of hopelessness spreading through his mind.

It did not feel good.

Gordan looked at Gale and said, "I’d like to smoke."

"Ugh, at a time like this, you’re still thinking about smoking? I've told you, you have to lie still for eight hours. Even if you could smoke now, how would you do it lying here? Just stay put," replied Gale. He picked up a cotton swab dipped in water, about to dab it on Gordan's lips.

Gordan turned his head away.

"Don't move." Gale, who lacked experience in caregiving, was still patient with Gordan. "Your lips are chapped. You need some water."

"I don't want a man to wait on me," replied Gordan, still feeling a bit woozy but utterly disgusted.

Gale let out a frustrated grunt, wishing he could throw a punch at him.

However, the beeping monitors around reminded him that the person in front of him was a patient who was only injured because of him. Hence, he could not lose his temper.

He could not lose his temper!

Gale said, "There are no chicks around, just me. Gordan, don t be dumb.I'm not.your sekvantboy. It's mỳ first time playing caretaker, so if you don't behave, don't blame me for keeping you here longer."

Gordan was not intimidated by his threats.

"A caretaker?" Gale set the water cup down. "Don't mess around. With your injury, a garetaker Won't do. If they're smart and catch wind of something they shouldn't, you'll be in hot waters.

If Gale were that kind of person, Luke would not keep him around.

When Gale saw Gordan still acting this way, he lost his temper and walked over to the other side, forcibly dabbing some water on his lips.

"Give me some water." The moment the water touched his lips, Gordan immediately felt thirsty.

"No, no water or food for eight hours." Gale knew he wanted some water, so he applied a bit more to his lips.

Gordan looked at the man in front of him who kept nagging at him. He rolled his eyes and said, "I don't need your care. Get me a caretaker."

"It might not screw you over. Are you sure you don't want to continue to stay in A City?"

Gale's words were a reminder.

If Gordan insisted on having a caretaker, that would be fine.

However, if the caretaket found Out it wasta gunshot wound, she might connect it to today's events and inform the police.

He had participated in this affair without making his identity known. That was why he was allowed to discreetly fire a gun.

However, the police prohibited anyone other than themselves from firing. If the caretaker reported it, they would come and arrest Gordan.

He would become a wanted criminal in A City.

If that happened, he would not be able to return to A City without changing his appearance.

Gordan was content with his current looks and had no desire to alter his appearance or resort to using disguises.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 3205-Their Boss Has A Way Of Attracting Admirers Gordan gave Gale an international gesture and then closed his eyes.

Gale felt helpless. If it were not for all the things Gordan had done for him, he would not be willing to take care of him!

At the thought of this, Gale let out a cold snort, put down the cup of water, walked over to the couch, and sat down. Then, he said, "You're such a handful.

Only I can deal with you! Any caretakers we hired would totally freak out."

Gordan remained silent.

Luca felt exasperated as she listened to them.

"Gordan, get some good rest," said Luke as he put away his phone and walked to the bedside.

"Boss, I'm fine," replied Gordan. He felt frustrated. How long had he been lying here? He had lost all sense of time.

"Boss, if you have things to do, go ahead. Gale won’t let me die here," added Gordan.

"Yeah, there's still some work at the company. Luca and I will head back first.

When you start physical therapy, Luca will help you. Don't worry, you'll recover just like before. Also, some money has been transferred to your bank account, but it wasn't from me," explained Luke.

Gordan was surprised. "You know I was just joking."

"I know." Luke nodded, understanding that Gordan's mention of money was in jest.

However, the money was not from him. "It was from Marcos."

When Marcos learned that Gordan had been shot, he insisted on transferring the money to him and asked Luke for his bank account details.

Luke did not have the authority to refuse on Gordan's behalf, so he gave Marcos the account information. Marcos then transferred the money to Gordan.

When Gordan heard that it was Marcos who sent the money, he understood what it meant.

The person who most wanted Matysh in jail was not Luke but Marcos. Gordan got shot this time, but he also thwarted Ethan and Matysh’s escape plan.

Marcos was grateful to him.

"Where's my phone?" asked Gordan. After the anesthesia wore off, he did not feel like doing anything, not even looking at his phone.

If it were not for Luke mentioning it, he would not have bothered looking for his phone and would have just closed his eyes to alleviate the symptoms of the anesthesia.

Luke handed Gordan the phone that was placed on the bedside table.

"Thanks," said Gordan as he took the phone. He felt dizzy and a bit nauseous after slightly turning his head. He held the phone and closed his eyes. It took a while for him to recover. Then, he opened the app to check his account balance.

Marcos was generous. He transferred two million dollars to him.

Gordan commented, "He’s quite generous."

"How much did he transfer?" Gale asked curiously.

Luke looked at him and Rain, saying, "You guys scored some too."

"No way. Us?" Gale did not believe it and checked his own account. "Wow, two million dollars."

The amount was not significant for Gale and Rain. They had more in their accounts working with Luke, still, they were surprised by Marcos' generosity.

Luke explained, "Marcos said everyone helped him a lot recently. He had nothing else to repay with but money, so just accept it."

Gordan placed the phone by his pillow.

The glaring light from the screen made him feel dizzy.

Luca noticed his discomfort and asked in a soft voice, "Mr. Norton, you must be sensitive to the anesthesia. Are you feeling dizzy?"

"Yes," answered Gordan. This was precisely why he hated general anesthesia.

His previous experiences had taught him that it always left him feeling dizzy and uncomfortable all day.

Luca turned to Luke and said to him, "Please get two lemons and place them by his pillow. It should help."

"I'll go." Rain heard Luca and stood up, volunteered to take on the task.

Rain left the ward to buy lemons for Gordan.

Meanwhile, Luca took a set of dry needling needles from her bag. She had developed the habit of carrying these needles whenever she went out.

They were crucial for her safety given that Abel could make a move at any time.

Luke and Gale watched her closely.

"I’m going to needle Mr. Norton. It'll help alleviate his symptoms," explained Luca.

"Okay," replied Luke, stepping back to let her work.

Since the needles were new, Luca quickly wiped them with an alcohol swab and began the dry needling. Gordan kept his eyes closed and made no sound as she swiftly inserted the needles.

Luca did it swiftly and deftly, sticking in a few needles. As Luca inserted each needle, Gordan felt much better.

She inserted some needles in his arms and others in his face. When she inserted the last needle, Gordan suddenly said, 'The pain from the wound has eased up a lot."

"Yes, the points I've inserted have pain-relieving effects." Luca nodded. Even though Gordan could endure the pain, it would be better to minimize his suffering.

As soon as Luca finished her sentence, Sunny entered the ward.

Sunny noticed that everyone was gathering around the bed, she could not help but ask, "Why are you all standing around the bed? Is the patient feeling unwell?"

"No," Gale replied on Gordan's behalf. In fact, Gordan seemed to be feeling much better.

'Then why are you…?" Sunny walked over to the bed and was surprised to see needles in Gordan's face and arms. "What have you done to the patient?"

After Sunny said that, she noticed the needles in Luca's hand. She was sure that Luca was the one who inserted the peeples, She furrowed her brows and demanded, "What are you doing to the patient? His priority should be recovery, not dry needling! Are you even a doctor?"

Sunny recognized the needles as those used for dry needling.

However, this was a hospital, and Luca was not a hospital doctor. How could she administer those needles?

Luca frowned when she sensed the aggressiveness in Sunny's tone.

"I asked for it," replied Gordan.

Sunny was startled for a moment. 'The doctor didn't prescribe dry needling. How can you let someone randomly needle you? What if she damages a nerve?"

"I know my own body," replied Gordan. He was feeling much better, so he opened his eyes and looked at Sunny.

Judging from the look on her face, Gordan, who was experienced, quickly understoopyhatthe issue was not Luca performing dry needling but the fact that she was Luke's woman.

Indeed, Gale was right. Their boss had a way of attracting admirers wherever he went.

Even though he never intended it, that was just how it was. The young nurse was upset because of Luke's close relationship with Luca.

Gordan glanced at the expression on Sunny's face. He could not help but secretly let out a sigh. She seemed quite upset about it.

Gordan was puzzled. Were all women like this? They often felt wronged and acted as though they were betrayed over minor issues. Who were they putting on this show for?

Sunny did not expect Gordan to speak up like this and felt even more upset.

"I feel great, and my sister-in-law's medical skills are unmatched by even your hospital's naturopathycchief.I'm gratefullo her heedlework, and I'm the one getting poked! So, why the fuss?" Gordan felt better, and his tone grew stronger.

"You just had surgery. You should follow the doctor’s instructions."

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 3206-There Isn't A Man Who Wouldn't Like A Woman Like That Sunny felt a pang of hurt as she heard Gordan addressing Luca as his sister -inlaw. She also remembered Gale and the others referring to Luke as' Boss'just moments ago.

Her eyes reddened as she turned toward Luke.

However, he did not even glance at her, completely ignoring her grievances.

Sunny suppressed the urge to cry. She knew as a nurse there were things she could not say and people she could not mess with.

All she could say was, "I'm saying this for your own good. Besides, I don't know about this lady's ability. You've just had surgery and are still under anesthesia. It really isn't appropriate to perform dry needling on you at this time."

"I'm sorry," Luca heard her and said indifferently to the nurse before removing the needles.

Gordan was puzzled. "Huh?"

"It's already been five minutes. That's enough," replied Luca. She did not remove the needles because of Sunny's words but because the allotted time was up.

Initially, Sunny's expression had softened slightly at Luca's apology and action of removing the needles. It turned out she had some awareness.

However, she now realized Luca had not done it because of her words but simply because time was up.

Her expression turned grim. She felt the urge to explode in anger but was holding back. She had not forgotten that she was a nurse who was still on duty.

Moreover, she was in front of Luke. She had to restrain her temper and maintain her image.

"You're amazing! A few needles and he looks so much better." Gale stood by, enjoying the spectacle. He was unbothered and openly complimented Luca.

Sunny glanced at Gordan. Indeed, his spirit and complexion had improved significantly.

She wanted to deny Luca's dry needling skills. Thus, she said, "Patients tend to gradually recover their spirit after general anesthesia."

Gale understood the implication behind Sunny's words and nodded. "Oh, you said it and it happened. I mean, I saw Gordan looking half-dead a minute ago, and now, he's all perked up. That's seriously some crazy stuff!"

Feeling embarrassed, Sunny bit her lip. She felt that she could not bear this anymore and announced, "I came to check on the patient. He seems fine now, but he still needs to lie flat for eight hours. Don’t be careless."

Then, she was about to leave.

Gale stopped her. "Wait."

"Yes?" Sunny halted reluctantly. She had already endured enough humiliation here. Was he going to embarrass her further?

She did not want to lose her dignity in front of Luke or Luca.

Sunny was a nurse, and her medical knowledge was not as extensive as a doctor's. This woman in front of her might not be a doctor, but she seemed more knowledgeable in medicine than her.

Sunny glanced at Luca's face again. Her features were delicate with a hint of feminine allure despite not wearing any makeup.

Luca was dressed professionally. Even though Sunny could not tell what Luca’s profession was, she looked sharp in her professional attire. One could tell she had a great figure.

There was not a man who would not like a woman like that.

Sunny felt even more disheartened. Earlier, she had been proud of herself as a nurse was a profession many men admired. It was a respectable job, and it was a solid career choice.

Moreover, she had connections with the hospital director. Given enough years of service, she could certainly become head nurse or even department head.

In short, her career started on a higher note than many others.

However, these advantages of hers did not seem advantageous at all compared to Luca. They were even embarrassing.

What could she use to compete with Luca? Luca seemed to know everything better than her. That explained why an outstanding man like Luke kept his gaze fixed on her Gale was not aware of Sunny's rapid thoughts in those few seconds. He pointed at the saline solution and said, "At least change the saline solution before you leave. Running around like this disturbs the patient's rest."

Gale did not know if other nurses rushed around as much after their patients' surgeries, but Sunny had made several trips to the ward.

However, when Gale realized that Sunny's mind was not on the saline solution, he immediately understood.

Sunny glanced at the saline bag and indeed, the one currently being administered was almost empty. She pursed her lips in grievance, walked to the bedside, and changed the saline solution. "Please call me when this bag is finished."

After that, she pressed her lips together, turned around without looking back, and left.

Gale clicked his tongue while looking at Luke. There was a hint of excitement flickering in his eyes. He wondered how Luca would evaluate this situation.

Luca merely glanced at Luke and said, "Indeed, he’s attracting admirers."

"I'm not." Luke knew Luca was referring to him and felt unjust. After all, he had not even registered the nurse's appearance.

Ever since the hospital director brought that nurse in, he had not spared her a single glance.

Gordan seemed more energetic now. He added, "Boss, seriously, you do attract a lot of attention. I was trying to get some good sleep, but look at how many times this nurse has been in here.

"She says she's checking on my condition, but she's just checking in on you. It's getting annoying, man. I can't sleep. And did you notice? When the director brought her in, she wasn't wearing any perfume. The next time she shows up, bam, it's perfume city.

"I just don't get why anyone would like that stinky scent. It's killing me.” Listening to Gordan's complaints, Luca's lips twitched.

Was it really that exaggerated?

It really seemed like Luke was attracting attention.

Plus, it was not just one admirer. There were probably others too.

As Luca thought about it, another smile crept onto her lips.

Luke noticed her smile and wore a helpless expression.

Gordan continued, "Alright, Boss. I'm feeling much better now. You should go back with Dr. Craw. Get busy. Gale will let you know if anything happens."

Luke nodded and turned to look at Luca. "Are you heading back to the company?"

"No, I asked Mr. Link to arrange for stero theme reine luca mee she had already taken leave, she could use the time to do some research at home.

"Alright, let me take you home first," suggested Luke, taking Luca’s hand and leaving.

After they left the ward, Rain happened to return and ran into them.

"Boss, Bianca, are you heading back?" asked Rain with a bag in her hand.

"Yes.” Luke nodded.

Luca glanced at the bag, which was transparent and contained lemons.

Then, she said, "Please look for an bambop skewerot a disposable fork later, insert them into the lemons, and place them next to Mr. Norton's bed. This way, the lemon fragrance will continue to diffuse. If it fades, just move them to another spot."

Some people were sensitive to anesthesia, and they usually found the scent of lemon helplut in alleviating dizziness and nausea.

That was why she requested lemons.

"Okay, got it, Dr. Craw." Rain nodded and entered the ward.

Luca and Luke left, passing by the nurse's station. Sunny's sense of grievance had not subsided. Seeing Luke walking alongside Luca only deepened her frustration.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 3207-Why Would She Choose To Be Someone Else's Mistress?Even though they were not holding hands or as intimate as they were in the hospital ward, they were standing side by side. It was clear their relationship was far from ordinary.Sunny could not help but wonder why someone as outstanding as Luca chose to be someone else's mistress?Yet she forgot that she herself also entertained such fantasies.Sunny felt aggrieved. She did not realize how hypocritical she was being by looking down on Luca.She even had some exaggerated fantasies about what would happen if she had Luke's contact information.However, it was just a fantasy.Sunny knew Luke’s identity and was aware of the gossip between Luca and Luke, which had even been confirmed as true.Still, what could she do about it?Could she break them up by exposing them to the press? If it were that simple, they would have split the last time.Watching the two of them enter the elevator side by side, Sunny bit her lip until the flesh turned white.She knew falling for a man at first sight was not reliable, but she had long understood the type of person Luke was. Her family even had an album dedicated to collecting various photos of Luke from magazines and newspapers.She never imagined she would one day encounter this man in real life, and at such close proximity.Fate had given her this opportunity but had also left her adoring heart utterly empty."Sunny, what's wrong with you? You've bitten your lip till it's gone white."Another nurse who saw her in this state could not help but worry. "Are you feeling unwell? Should I arrange for you to see a doctor?” They all knew about Sunny's relationship with the hospital director, so everyone cared deeply for her.They hoped to build a good relationship with her in hopes that she would put in a good word for them with the director."I'm fine." Sunny withdrew her gaze and stopped biting her lip, but her demeanor now showed her distraught state."You don’t look fine. Why don't you go see a doctor?” The nurse was concerned, wondering what could have caused Sunny's expression to change so drastically.Was it a breakup?It did not seem like it. Sunny seemed fine before, even glowing with happiness as though she had good news to share.How could she suddenly be heartbroken?They had not heard that Sunny was dating anyone. She always said she was single and not looking to date. What was going on?"I said I'm fine! I don't need to see a doctor!" Sunny could not help but let out a yell.The nurse was taken aback by her outburst, wondering if this was still the same person who used to be so easygoing. Sunny had changed a lot...The nurse did not say anything else. She picked up a syringe nearby and said, "As long as you're okay. I'll hang the drip for the patient."Then, she quickly left.Sunny realized she had lost control of herself, but she did not want to explain why she had suddenly lost her temper. Moreover, she could not be bothered to explain.Luca and Luke were unaware of what happened at the nurses' station.Luca noticed Sunny was watching them as they left.However, even though Sunny was watching them, Luca did not flaunt her relationship with Luke arrogantly. She remained calm and composed, not even giving Sunny a second glance.After all, Luke liked her and had always liked her. There was no need for her to show off to Sunny or any other women.There were plenty of women who liked Luke. If she were to flaunt in front of each of them, would that not be exhausting? Luca did not want to burden herself with such troubles and annoyances because she trusted Luke.The two arrived at the parking lot downstairs.Luke said, "I'll take you home first."Luca shook her head, pointed in a specific direction, and replied, "Warren has been waiting here. You don't need to send me back home. Let Warren do it. You should hurry back to the company and handle your matters."She knew how busy Luke's work was, so she did not expect him to insist on driving her. The time spent driving her could be used by Luke to handle some documents."Alright." Luke escorted her toward where Warren had parked.Luca asked again, "Will you be home for dinner tonight?""Yes,” answered Luke. Although he had not been at the company, Jason had handled a lot of work for him, so he could go home for dinner.The hospital parking lot was large. It took them five minutes to reach where Warren had parked. Luca decided to mention, "By the way, I plan to start having Aunt Neile deliver lunch and soup to Mr. Norton from tomorrow onward. I'll prepare the soup in the morning.""It’s up to you." Luke had no objections.Having Aunt Nelle deliver the meals instead of doing it herself would prevent any jealousy on Luke's part.Besides, since soup was simple to make and Aunt Nelle was the one preparing Gordan's lunch, Luke would not feel jealous. He also knew that Gordan was picky about food, even more so than himself. Therefore, having Aunt Nelle prepare lunch was also good for his health.It would be better for Gordan to eat well.Also, Gale was only in charge of taking care of Gordan tonight. After Gordan could get out of bed tomorrow, Gale would not stay in the hospital.If Aunt Neile did not deliver meals to Gordan, he could only eat in the hospital canteen."Yeah, I’m just informing you about it. After all, Mr. Norton was injured and hospitalized because of me..." replied Luca.Luke shook his head.Luca did not know what his head shake meant.Luke explained, "Luca, don't shoulder this matter entirely on yourself.Although he got injured while doing something for me, he was also working under Marcos."'That’s why Marcos compensated him with two million dollars.” Luca nodded, naturally understanding this point.

Then, she continued, "I can't afford that kind of compensation, so alh can do is provide his with physicall therapy and prepare some medicinal soups to help his wounds and tissues heal faster.""Okay, just do what you can. Don't burden yourself with too much guilt," added Luke.

"I know. Don't worry. I'll do what I can without making things too difficult for myself. I'll just have Aunt Nelle!

buy more ingrédients for the herball soups and prepare some medicinal.

herbs. Most of the work will be done by Aunt Neile," explained Luca as they arrived at Warren's parking spot.

Warren had spotted them from afar and promptly got out of the car when they approached. He respectfully greeted them, "Good afternoon, Boss. Good afternoon, Ms. Craw."Take Ms. Craw home," instructed Luke."Yes, sir.” Warren nodded and opened the rear door.After Luca got into the car, he closed the door and looked at Luke. "Boss, do you need a ride?""No, my car is over there. After you drop her off, you can call it a day," replied Luke. He glanced at Luca, who was in the car, before walking toward where he had parked.Warren nodded, got into the driver's seat, and drove away.Luke drove the car away and left without paying any mind to what was happening upstairs.He did not even give Sunny a second thought.Sunny continued to work absentmindedly, even making a mistake when dispensing medication.

Fortunately, the patients in the ward knew about her relationship with the hospital dirgator: so even if she made a mistake, it was noticed promptly and nothing was said about it.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 3208-However, after Sunny realized her mistake, she could not help but feel remorseful.

She believed it was all because of Luca that she had been affected. If it were not for Luca, she would not have made such a mistake. With these thoughts in mind, Sunny entered Gordan's ward.

When Gale saw her come in again, he exclaimed in surprise, "Nurse, my boss has already left. Is there something you need?"

"What?" Sunny glanced around the ward, only then realizing that the person Gale was referring to was not the person lying in the bed but that man.

Yes, she recalled their conversation a moment ago.

They all referred to Luke as 'Boss'…

Although such a title was quite crude, even a bit vulgar, she did not feel comfortable saying anything about it. After realizing what he meant, Sunny replied, "You must have misunderstood. I'm here to deliver medication."

Then, she walked to the bedside and asked, "Your name."

"Gordan Norton," Gordan closed his eyes and replied in a cold voice.

"Please show me your wristband." Then, Sunny was about to pick up Gordan's hand.

As soon as her fingertips touched Gordan's, he immediately pulled away.

"Huh?" Sunny was puzzled.

"I don't like others touching me," Gordan said coldly. He raised his hand to show her the name on the wristband.

Sunny was stunned for a moment and then awkwardly apologized, "I'm sorry."

"The nurse just wants to confirm your name. Why such a big reaction?" Gale deliberately stepped forward to stir things up.

It was not that he was intentionally targeting Sunny, but he did not have a good impression of this nurse either.

A nurse should focus on her duties. Sunny always came here just for Luke.

Gordan had just finished surgery! If Sunny had even half a mind to check on Gordan, he would not be so resentful toward her.

If it were not for the director vouching for this nurse, saying she was his relative and absolutely trustworthy with patient privacy, he would definitely have opted to switch nurses.

"She has a strong smell…" Gordan was not bothered about Sunny's reaction.

Sunny's face turned pale when she heard what Gordan said. She wondered why she would have a strong smell. She bathed every day. If there was any smell, it had to be from the disinfectant… While she was still puzzled about the smell on her body, Gale's words reminded her.

"It's just perfume. Don't you usually smell that all the time? What's with the act here? She just accidentally sprayed a bit too much…."

On the surface, Gale was criticizing Gordan, but in reality, he was pointing out that Sunny's perfume was too strong.

Sunny's face turned even paler as she suddenly remembered she had sprayed perfume because of Luke. However, she did not think she had sprayed too much.

Gordan did not even look at Sunny. He glared at Gale. "You don't know anything. If perfume mixes with disinfectant, do you know what that smells like?

It's just so overpowering!"

Sunny could not keep her smile anymore. She put down Gordan's medicine and said, "I'm sorry. I wasn't paying attention."

"Don't touch me except for when you need to inject me," Gordan said sternly.

Sunny smiled awkwardly and nodded.

She could not help wondering if the combination of perfume and disinfectant really smelled that bad. Gordan seemed utterly repulsed by it.

She had sprayed perfume in the hospital before, but no one had ever mentioned it.

Sunny glanced at the lemons by the bedside. Then, she smiled and said, "If you're feeling off, just sniff some lemon. A lot of patients do that after surgery when they're not feeling right. The lemon scent can calm your body and mind a bit."

"That's right. This method was suggested by Boss' woman," Gale mentioned Luca.

Sunny's state of mind was thrown into turmoil by their conversation, but she could only manage to keep a strained smile on her face.

"If you need anything, just press the button. I'll get back to work now. Also, tonight's shift is covered by head nurse, and we'll take turns caring for you afterward, Mr. Norton. Please rest assured that we won't disclose your condition to anyone."

It was the head nurse's day off today, which was why Sunny was on duty.

The director emphasized the need to keep the patient's identity and condition confidential. That was why the nurses alternated between day and night shifts.

Sunny and the head nurse had dealt with such situations before, so they were accustomed to it.

Both Gordan and Gale remained silent at that moment.

Sunny did not want to hear any more about Luca from them, so she turned around and left.

After Sunny left, Gale said to Gordan, who was on the bed, "Didn't expect you to be so cooperative."

"Can a woman like her even match Luke?" A hint of mockery flashed across Gordan's eyes. He could smell the lingering scent of Sunny's perfume in the ward and said, "Open the window. It stinks." "Why don't you find perfume stinky when you're surrounded by women?" Gale did not move. He could tolerate the scent.

"There's no disinfectant smell on those women," retorted Gordan.

Gale shook his head. "If we open the window, won't it get too hot with the air conditioning on?” "It's better to be hot than suffocated. Open it for five minutes, and we'll close it later," Gordan insisted.

Gale had no choice but to open the window.

The hot breeze blew in, causing him to furrow his brows. "Summer in A City is really hot. It must be around 30 degrees out there."

"You can't stand the heat?" Gordan looked genuinely surprised.

"Not exactly… Gale shook his head.

"Even though it's been several years since I came to A City, my previous living environment… You know, it wasn't hot at all. So after all these years, I still find the summero temperatures here uncomfortable."

Gordan knew the geographical coordinates of the Island of Despair. Summers there were like spring or autumn, never too hot. They did not even need air conditioning.

"Oh, by the way…" Gale paused for a moment, hesitating whether to continue.

"If you have something to say, just say it," Gordan said with his eyes closed, feeling much better after Luca's dry needling treatment.

"You told me to spit it out-" Gale started.

"In that case, don't say it," Gordan interrupted, picking up the lemon beside him and taking a sniff.

The refreshing scent cleared his head, preventing him from feeling, too dizzy. If it were not for Dohann's réquest for him to lie down for eight hours, he might have wanted to get up now.

"You told me to say it. How can I not?" Gale quickly continued, "Should we inform Vivian about your injury?"

"What for?" Gordan's tone was lazy, but just mentioning that name made him recall their conversation at the entrance of the residential area a few days ago.

That conversation had angered him enough to spend a whole night boxing.

If he had had real sparring partners, he would have knocked down several.

"Do we really not need to inform her? Although you're divorced, it seems like you still care about her," said Gale.

Even though Gale had never been in a relationship himself, he was not clueless about such matters. Pre"

could sense the strange tension between Gordan and Vivian during the barbecue at Luke's house that night.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 3209-What made you think that?" Gordan asked bluntly.

He cared about Vivian?

Unless Vivian turned into an absolute beauty one day, he would never care about her.

She was just an ugly woman. He was waiting for her at the neighborhood gate only because of the years they had known each other, nothing more.

"Really? Are you sure?" Gale raised an eyebrow, not easily fooled by his words.

"I'm telling you, women are soft-hearted. If she finds out you're injured, she'll

feel sorry for you. By then, won't it be easy for you guys to get back together or whatever it is that you want?"

"Who told you I want to get back together with her?" Gordan frowned, almost wanting to throw the lemon in his hand.

"Tsk, it seems that pretending not to care isn't just a woman's trait. Men are the same."

"Gale…" warned Gordan.

Gale shook his head and asked, "Are you going to deny that the woman you mentioned while drinking alone that day wasn't Vivian?"

Gordan was stunned for a moment as he recalled what happened that day.

He was drunk but still rational. He should not have mentioned Vivian.

"You're thinking about it, which means I'm right," added Gale with a knowing expression on his face.

"Even though you didn't say it that day, you were acting like someone who got dumped. Gordan, you might fool others, but you can't fool me or Rain," said Gale. He remembered what Rain had said after their barbecue that day.

Gordan probably cared about Vivian. His behavior was too unusual.

He could have any woman he wanted, but ever since divorcing Vivian, he had not had a single woman around him. He had become uninterested in them.

For a man to change like this, it was either he had developed a fear of women or he still had feelings for one woman.

Take Luke, for example. He had Luca in his heart. Thus, no matter how much other women tried to flirt or dress seductively around him, they could not catch his interest at all.

Gale believed Rain was right. They both thought Gordan had not gotten over Vivian.

Gordan's constant denial was just him being oblivious or unwilling to face it.

Gale was thrilled because he had uncovered a secret Gordan refused to acknowledge. To him, Gordan's strong denial was just a sign of how hard he was avoiding the truth. It was astonishing to see such a capable man be so clueless about his feelings.

Gordan could not be bothered to respond and simply closed his eyes.

"Come on. Let's talk," said Gale.

"I'm injured. I need to rest," Gordan replied in a cold voice. His tone was indifferent, but only he knew how chaotic his thoughts were at that moment.

"So, you're really not planning to tell Vivian?" Gale thought this was a perfect opportunity for them to patch things up.

Vivian loved Gordan so much even though he had hurt her deeply. She was not the type to stop loving someone just like that. If Gordan seized the opportunity, it might actually work.

In that case, was not getting back together just a matter of time?

Gordan would not need to drown his sorrows in alcohol anymore.

"No thanks," Gordan replied firmly.

Gale rubbed his nose and glanced at the monitoring equipment beside them. He exclaimed, "Huh?"

Just as Gordan thought Gale was about to persuade him again, he heard him say, "Gordan, your heart rate is really high. What are you nervous about?"

"Get lost!" Gordan did not open his eyes and threw the lemon from beside his pillow at Gale.

Even though his eyes were closed, he aimed toward the sound, and the lemon flew straight at Gale.

Gale was not the type to let himself get hit. He caught the lemon mid-air and said, "What a waste. If this lemon gets ruined, I'm not buying you another one."

Gordan ignored him.

Gale stopped talking and placed the lemon back beside Gordan's pillow.

Noticing that the air in the ward had cleared, he closed the window and sat down. He pulled out his phone and saw the time. He quickly opened the livestream.

Gale looked at Gordan, who was on the hospital bed, and asked, "The court livestream has started. Do you want to watch?"

They were all worried about Gordan this morning, so none of them had watched the court livestream. Later they found out that the verdict had not been reached yet and that the trial would continue in the afternoon. They planned to watch it live then.

After all, they had a stake in it and needed to see it through.

"Cast it to the TV," replied Gordan. His wound was aching, and he could not sleep. Even though he was lying flat, he could still see the TV in the hospital ward. He wanted to watch it too. "Alright," replied Gale as he cast the image on the phone to the TV.

The court's live proceedings appeared on the TV.

Gordan and Gale watched together.

Meanwhile, Luke was handling work at T Corporation while listening to the court session. Multitasking was no challenge for him.

Many people were following the case, including Sarah.

Knowing that Matysh's case was being heard today, she had been glued to the TV since early morning.

Having been in hiding for over 20 years, she was not familiar with modern technology. Fortunately, the maid helped her cast the livestream to the TV. Otherwise, Sarah would not have been able to watch it.

The maid brought a plate of fruit to the coffee table. As it was not time to cook yet, she sat next to Sarah to watch the livestream with her.

The actual trial had not started yet, and the camera was focused on Matysh.

The maid said, "This foreigner deserves the death penalty. He's done so many bad things. If he's this brazen in A City, imagine how much worse he is in his own country."

Sarah nodded. When the camera focused on Matysh, she could not help but clench her fists.

What she once felt for Matysh was fear. Now, after so many years, it was mostly anger.

She agreed with the maid. How she wished Matysh could be sentenced to death immediately!

However, being well-educated, Sarah knew that Matysh's crimes in A City would not warrant the death penalty.

It was likely anly alfew years in prisoh; maybe ten at most. Seeing no response from Sarah, the maid continued, "They say a person's face reflects their heart. This man looks like trouble."

Sarah looked at her curiously, "You can tell?"

"Yeah, I can tell that this guy is a total pervert. Look at him. He's been locked up for a while, & his routine should be pretty regular by now. But he still has dark circles under his eyes. Aren't Russians supposed to have fair skin?

"They usually don't get dark circles this bad, right? His dark circles are intense, and he's got this crazy look inhis eyes. It's like he's about to kill someone. It's seriously creepy." As the maid spoke, goosebumps rose on her arms.

Twins In Her Womb: Sir President Please Be Gentle Chapter 3210-"Yes, he's really a terrifying man," Sarah agreed with the maid.

The maid, curious about Sarah's reaction, wondered if she knew him.

Otherwise, why would she say something like that?

As she looked at Sarah's Russian features and Matysh on TV, the maid could not help but ask, "Ms. Poplar, do you know him?" "No." Sarah shook her head immediately. "He's a big shot in the business world. How could someone like me possibly know him?"

As she said that, she did not notice the anger in her own voice.

At the same time, Sarah looked down at her hands. While her family was not as wealthy as Matysh's, they were comfortably well-off. Her parents always spoiled her and never made her do housework. Hence, when she married Marcos' father, her hands remained soft and delicate-not any different from those of the daughters of wealthy families.

In the end, the love she pursued destroyed her.

As she looked at her hands now, she wondered how could a man like Matysh ever know someone like her.

The maid sensed Sarah's emotions and did not say anything more, turning her attention back to the TV screen.

The interrogation was starting.

As Sarah listened to Matysh's lawyer defending him, a cold smile appeared on her lips. Even at this point, Matysh still planned on pleading not guilty.

However, was he really innocent? He had so many charges against him.

Sarah rummaged around for something nearby.

"What are you looking for, Ms. Poplar?" asked the maid.

"My phone. Where's my phone?" replied Sarah.

"It's charging. I'll get it for you," said the maid. She was used to Sarah's forgetfulness by now.

Having undergone multiple brain surgeries to survive, it was understandable that there would be some lingering effects. For instance, Sarah's memory was now quite poor. She would often forget small details. Like leaving home without her wallet and keys, or misplacing something and struggling to remember where she put it.

The maid handed her the fully charged phone.

Sarah shook her head with a sigh. "Ever since I got sick, my memory's just been getting worse every day."

"It'll slowly get better, but you need to do some memory exercises," the maid reminded her. She had accompanied Sarah to follow-up net visits at the hospital where doctors advised memory training for recovery.

However, Sarah never followed through with the recommended exercises.

The maid had no choice. After all, she was just the maid, not a family member. If Sarah was unwilling to do the exercises, could she really force her?

The answer was clearly no.

Hence, the maid could only remind Sarah as best she could and keep track of where Sarah placed her things.

"People say it helps, but it really doesn't." Sarah shook her head. "If memory exercises worked, fewer people would be forgetful."

She knew that her last illness had damaged some brain nerves, leading to her worsening memory.

Sarah watched Matysh's every move on the TV screen, her eyes fixed on the live broadcast.

ё

Some things needed to be said.

She did not know when she would forget about these things, but someone had to know what Matysh had done and make him pay.

Sarah did not expect Luke to help her seek justice. He had no reason to.

She just wanted him to pass on what she knew to Marcos.
