Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 2220

On the other side of the door.

When Luke returned to his bedroom, he immediately sat down and called Percy. “When will you beback?"

Since they were friends, he knew that Percy was not in A City at the moment.

"I've still got a few days' worth of work. What's up? Miss me?" Percy joked.

Luke had a foul expression on his face. Ignoring the jokes, he said unfeelingly, "Come and pick yourwoman up the minute you're back."

"What's wrong? Did Nina spot you doing evil things?"

"I'm going to kick Nina out if you continue spouting such nonsense," Luke said with a gloomyexpression on his face. What Percy said reminded him of the questions Nina had asked him thismorning.

In his opinion, Nina was an ignorant woman whom Percy was pampering.

She was bent on doing good for others without assessing her capabilities. Things would only becomeeven more difficult if she were to get involved. After all, she was nothing but a drag to them!

"Your beloved woman will never let you do that even if you have the guts to do so. Hang on. I'll pickNina up when I return in a few days," Percy replied. He did not want to be separated from Nina for sucha long time either.

For now, Nina was safest if she stayed at Luke's mansion.

Moreover, since Luca was there, Percy did not believe Luke would kick Nina out.

"She's planning to stick her head into Luca's current problem. Hurry back so I don't get more problemson my plate." Luke had no choice but to tell him the truth. After all, Percy would not view the issueseriously if he did not speak the truth.

"What?" Percy's cavalier attitude disappeared. Luke had talked to him about Mathys before this.

He had also conducted some additional research on that person.

Mathys was not a force to be reckoned with.

"I'll beat Mathys to a pulp if he dares lay a hand on Luca, so take your woman away as quickly aspossible. She thinks she's protecting Luca, but all she's doing is getting in my way," Luke did not botherconcealing his plans.

After all, he trusted Percy.

"Alright, I'll return as quickly as possible," Percy replied. He did not want Nina to get involved in Luke'splan.

She was nothing more than a powerless woman. It would be great if she did not get destroyed byMathys, but she was even thinking of helping Luca?

What a joke.

Luke knew that Percy had started taking the matter seriously, thus he ended the call so he could turnon his laptop and begin working.

He had a lot of tasks to take care of.

His collaboration with M Group was just about to begin, and the company he had acquired was aboutto begin normal operations as well.

There were so many things to take care of. Mathys had picked this time to appear and cause him evenmore trouble. Thus, Luke had no choice but to work at every chance he got and also protect Luca.

In the evening.

While watching cartoons, Rainie whispered to Lanie, "Big Bro, do you think that Ms. Luca and Daddyare hiding something from us?"

Lanie continued watching the cartoon show. He had sensed that something was going on a long timeago.

"Yes," he nodded.

Rainie rested her chin on her hand, a thoughtful expression on her face as she said, "Do you think weshould ask Daddy what's going on?"

"Is there anything we can do even if we know what's going on?" Lanie had a mature answer ready. Hewas no longer as childish as he used to be and had matured greatly.

They were only children. They could not help, nor know about the adults' problems.

Besides, it would not be helpful for them to know what was going on as it would only increase theirworries. Thus, Lanie dispelled the idea from Rainie's mind.

"That's right, Big Sis," Tommy said while nodding. "We just need to be good, obedient children so thatDaddy and Ms. Luca won't worry."

Upon hearing her mischievous little brother say that, Rainie squeezed his chubby hand and said,"Alright then. We won't ask anything."

The three children got off the couch when the cartoon show ended. It was time for them to take a bathand go to bed.

Although there were no adults to chide them, they were still obedient and did not indulge themselves inwatching other cartoons.

Luca walked out of the study and saw that the children were upstairs. "Did you guys finish watchingyour cartoons?"

"Yes, Ms. Luca. We're going to take a bath and go to bed now," Rainie said as she nodded.

"Alright, that's good. Go on." Luca had been planning to urge them to come upstairs to wash up and goto bed because she figured their cartoon show had ended.

She did not expect them to be so obedient and disciplined.

Just like Luke...

Luca glanced at Luke's bedroom door, which was closed. She knew it was unlikely he was downstairsand that he was probably working in his bedroom.

She returned to her study. She planned to compile the data she had gotten from her experiment andmake sure the children were tucked into bed after they were done with their bath before she returned toher room to wash up and go to bed.

She continued working and did not stop until almost an hour had passed.

Luca disposed of the reagents in the test tubes before leaving the study.

She pushed the children's bedroom door open and saw that they were asleep in bed.

They had not kicked up a fuss and were extremely obedient. It was as if they knew that the adults werebusy, which was why they had not caused them any more trouble.

A fuzzy feeling washed over Luca. To her, it was enough that she had left these three precious babiesto Luke.

Luca closed Tommy's bedroom door and walked to her room. However, when she opened the door,she saw Luke sitting and working at her makeup table.

He had brought his laptop over and perched it on the surface of her makeup table.

“Mr. Crawford, you.." Luca was at a loss for words. When she remembered that Nina was staying hereas well, she hurriedly closed the door as if she was feeling sheepish.

Luke paused his work and turned around to look at her. "You're finished with work?"

"Yes," Luca said while nodding. She had no idea why Luke was working here.

There was no desk here, and the makeup table and its chair had been customized based on herheight. Additionally, the chair's height could not be adjusted the way office chairs could.

It would strain Luke's body if he sat here and worked for a long time.novelbin

"I'll feel less worried if I work here," Luke seemed to be explaining why he was working here.

He was also trying to see what Luca thought of this.

Luca frowned slightly. She still had not figured out what Luke meant when he closed his laptop, stackedhis documents on top of the laptop, and stood up.

Luca had even more questions as she watched him.

Luke walked to the door and opened it before turning around and saying, "It's late. You should go tobed soon."

"Alright.." Luca had no idea what he was doing, but he left her bedroom with his documents and laptopafter hearing her response.

She remained rooted to the spot for another half minute, but Luke did not return.

Luca had no idea what to make of it, but she felt herself starting to blush.

Just now, she felt like she was back in the past.

Heaving a long sigh, she took her pajamas out of the closet and walked into the bathroom.

She opened the bathroom door once she was done, but Luke had not returned.

Luca's head was filled with questions.

Why did he bring his documents and laptop over to work in her bedroom? Also, why did he gather histhings and leave after she came in?
