Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

When she heard him saying those words, Luca felt a pinch in her heart.
If she had the chance, she was not willing to be this cruel to Luke either...
Luca lowered her eyes and felt the speed of the car gradually slow down. Luke no longer said a word. It was as if he had calmed
down and was not as crazy as before.
However, she could sense the atmosphere becoming much chillier as Luke was no longer saying anything. He just kept
everything within himself.
Luca sighed, and her instinct was telling her that this was not the end of it.
The things Luke told her made Luca know that he was serious about her.
It was not just a superficial liking, nor was it because he could not tolerate being lonely. It was just like before when she was
Bianca. Being cornered by Luke like this made her feel as though she had returned to the past.
Luca knew that her words were hurtful, but she could not explain herself. She could only pretend as though nothing had
happened.
Luke drove the car and arrived at Watson Biopharmaceuticals. Luca immediately unbuckled the seat belt the instant he stopped
the car.
She did not want to spend another second being in the car with Luke.
Making things clear between them was much better than if she were to just follow Abel's order.
Luke's eyes glistened with anger when he saw Luca's swift action. If he found out who it was that made his woman end up in
such a situation, he would not let them off the hook.
Luca could not be bothered about work ethics right now and immediately entered Watson Biopharmaceuticals. She still had the
access card that Mo previously gave her inside her bag, so she swiped it and entered.
She was not worried about what would happen to Luke even if he did not have the pass. After all, he was the boss of this place.
It would only be natural for the security guards to welcome him.
Luca took the elevator and arrived at the office floor. She walked straight into the assistant's office.

Mo saw her and said with a smile, "You're here, Dr. Craw."
"Yeah, we're supposed to enter the meeting room now, right?" Luca asked.
"Yes. A few professors are already in the meeting room downstairs. I'll head down after I arrange the documents," said Mo. She
sneaked a peek behind Luca. "Where's the boss? Didn't he come with you?"
As they both came from the headquarters, Mo thought that they would show up together.
"Mr. Crawford? I think he'll be here in a few minutes." After saying that, Luca changed the topic. "If that's the case, I'll go
downstairs."
"Alright, Dr. Craw." Mo nodded. As she watched Luca leave, she shook her head helplessly. She continued to get the documents
ready.
Luca came downstairs and walked into the meeting room. There were already a few professors who had arrived.
Luke had yet to arrive. Perhaps parking the car had delayed his arrival.
"You're here, Dr. Craw."
"Good afternoon, Dr. Craw."
"Hello." Luca nodded when faced with the few professors who greeted her. She noticed there were no name cards placed on the
table. Hence, she just sat in the corner.
"Why are you sitting in the corner, Dr. Craw?" Dr. Albus came to her with a radiant look on his face. After today's meeting, he
would be able to hand in the paperwork needed for the patent application. He was delighted. Coupled with the fact that Luca had
previously helped him out, he treated her warmly.
"It's the same no matter where I sit. Of course, I'll leave the best seats to the seniors," Luca said. The main reason was that she
wanted to avoid Luke.
After the incident earlier, she did not want to be so close to him.
Luca's comment made lots of professors admire her and nod their heads.

After all, she was not welcome in this company back then. She was capable but way too young. With her shining too brightly, it
hid all of their achievements which they only managed to accomplish after so many years.
Hence, there were a few professors who disliked her.
Later on, they heard from Dr. Albus that Luca had left behind past matters and was willing to put her work aside to help him out.
It made a few professors change their impression of her.
After all, it would be better to have an additional friend than an enemy. Perhaps one day, they would need Luca's help in their
research.
"Why bother saying all this? We're all colleagues. Come, let's go and sit in front." Dr. Albus was still treating her warmly. Later
when it was time for him to give his report, he would definitely mention Luca.
After all, everyone in the company knew that Luca had helped him out.
"No thanks, Dr. Albus. I'll just sit here." Luca insisted. She was paying attention to the door of the meeting room. The moment
she saw Luke entering, she said, "Mr. Crawford is here."
Dr. Albus did not pay any more attention to Luca when Luke came in and quickly went forward to greet Luke.
"Mr. Crawford, sorry to trouble you to come all the way here despite your tight schedule." Dr. Albus went forward and greeted
Luke politely.
Luke was not in a good mood, especially when he noticed Luca sitting in a corner.
The meeting room was so spacious, and there were plenty of seats. However, she chose to sit in a corner. It was obvious that
she was trying to avoid him.
'Am I a virus? Or a poisonous animal? Why is she deliberately trying to sit far away from me?'
Thinking back at the times when they were so close to each other and comparing them to the current situation when Luca was
distancing herself from him, Luke felt angry and wanted to request her to sit beside him.
Dr. Albus thought he had said something wrong as Luke did not say a word after he greeted him. Hence, he said softly, "Mr.
Crawford?"

Luke looked at him coldly.
Dr. Albus shuddered. It seemed that their boss was in a foul mood today. He quickly pulled out the president's seat. "Have a
seat, Mr. Crawford."
The other professors saw the scene and noticed that something was off. They did not say a word.
Luke sat on the president's seat and looked at the few professors coldly. Then, he fixed his gaze on Luca.
Everyone would fight for the chance to sit closer to the boss, but Luca sat in the corner.
"Let's start the meeting." He withdrew his gaze and said coldly without any warmth in his words. That meeting on that day was
obviously for Dr. Albus to announce the result of his research. It was supposed to be a piece of good news. After all, it would be
Watson Biopharmaceutical's first profit-making project.
However, Luke had such a cold expression on his face.
The people present felt even more scared than if they were to hear a scary story.
Dr. Albus felt that something was off, but the meeting had to proceed. He nodded at Mo, who had just entered. "So, we shall
begin the meeting, Mr. Crawford."
Mo heard it and put on the presentation.
Dr. Albus started talking about his research. He explained all the data and the results of the clinical trials.
Just reporting on the results alone took more than an hour.
After Dr. Albus was done, he looked at Luke. "That's the end of my presentation, Mr. Crawford."
"Alright." Luke still had an awful expression on his face. It was as though the company's profits had nothing to do with him.
Dr. Albus was dumbfounded. 'My presentation went fine, so why is Mr. Crawford's complexion still so dark...'
Feeling helpless, he continued, "The research for this drug is a success. The main reason behind it is the effort of the
researchers in my team and also Dr. Craw. Thank you, everyone. Thank you, Dr. Craw."
