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

"Yes, Master Luke called last night and said he and his family will be coming back for dinner," replied Mr. Griffin with a smile on
his face.
"Alright. Have the kitchen get ready," said Old Master Crawford. This would be the first family dinner after Luca revealed her true
identity.
Even though Susan, Allison, and Louis and his family were not present, it was still considered a family feast. Old Master
Crawford attached great importance to it.
"Don't worry, the cook and the maids went out early this morning to get the ingredients," assured Mr. Griffin. He knew how much
Old Master Crawford prioritized this family gathering, and he had emphasized it to the cook when he informed her.
Knowing that Old Master Crawford paid a lot of attention to this, the cook would undoubtedly put in 200% effort to prepare
tonight's family dinner.
"Good. Have the chauffeur prepare the car. I’d like to go to the park for a while," said Old Master Crawford as he rose to his feet.
"Yes," replied Mr. Griffin. Then, he went to notify the chauffeur.
Since Susan moved out, Old Master Crawford's life seemed to have suddenly become more relaxed. Even though it was already
quite leisurely back then, having Susan around seemed to make him less relaxed.
Now, things were different. After Susan moved out of Crawford Manor, Old Master Crawford became more relaxed. He often
spent his mornings in the park nearby, practicing yoga and playing chess. He was enjoying a retired life like an ordinary elderly
person. ...
As they were going to Crawford Manor for dinner, Luca told all the researchers to leave work on time, and she also left the office
on time.
She did not head to Crawford Manor right away but returned home first as she and Luke had agreed. They would gather at home
and then leave together.
When she got back to the villa, the three children had already returned from school. Nina had not come back yet.
Luca entered the living room and saw the three children doing their homework. Then, she asked, "Has Mr. Crawford returned
home yet?"

Aunt Neile was still there. That was why she addressed Luke as Mr. Crawford.
Tommy shook his head. "Daddy hasn't come back yet, but Lanie sent him a message just now. He said he's on his way back."
"Okay, good. Continue with your homework. I'll prepare some herbs," replied Luca. When she asked Aunt Neile to buy some
herbs back last time, they were not just for Queenie but also for Old Master Crawford.
She had planned to find time to deliver them to Crawford Manor, but with so many things happening recently, her plan to deliver
the herbs had been delayed.
"Okay," the three children replied in unison. Luca walked into the store room, found the herbs that Aunt Niele had helped her buy
before, and checked them.
The herbs were fine. There was no sign of spoilage due to the proper storage. The herbs still emitted a strong fragrance, perfect
for making herbal dishes.
Carrying two bags of herbs, Luca walked out of the store room and placed them on the coffee table. She intended to transfer
them into glass jars. At that moment, the doorbell rang.
Aunt Neile initially wanted to help Luca, but she walked to the video intercom when she heard the doorbell. She instinctively
turned around to look at Luca when she realized the person standing outside the door was Susan.
"What's the matter?" Luca originally wanted Aunt Neile to help with the glass jars. She met her gaze, and she had a faint feeling
that something was not right. “Who is it?”
"It's Madam Crawford...” Aunt Neile added, "Master Louis' mother."
"Okay, open the door," replied Luca. She was curious why Susan had come again. After all, she had not gotten anything the last
time she came.
However, Susan was already standing at the door, and it was impossible not to open it.
She was an elder of the Crawford family, after all. Luca could not do that to her. However, there was a sense of unease in her
heart. She hoped that Luke would come back soon.
When the kids heard that it was Susan and Luca asked Aunt Niele to open the door, the three of them simultaneously took
action. They quickly packed their books into their backpacks and went upstairs.

Lanie, the last one to go upstairs, said, "Ms. Luca, let us know when we're leaving."
Then, he followed his younger siblings upstairs to do their homework.
Only Aunt Neile and Luca remained in the living room.
Aunt Neile had worked for the Crawford family for many years. She understood Madam Crawford well.
Susan had been living in the neighboring villa for so long without visiting. Now that she came here, she must be looking for
trouble. However, whatever trouble she was seeking, it certainly was not with Aunt Neile.
She asked, "Ms. Luca, should I inform Mr. Crawford to come back quickly?"
"No need. He's already on his way back. It's not safe for him to drive that fast. Aunt Neile, please prepare slippers for Madam
Crawford," replied Luca. She knew that Susan must have come to look for trouble with her this time.
Susan was Luke's stepmother, and she knew how capable Luke was after living with him for so many years. She would not
easily find fault with him.
Last time when Susan came looking for trouble for Luke, it did not end well for her. She would not be so foolish as to come cause
trouble for Luke again this time.
Therefore, it was likely that she came for Luca.
Luca's temples slightly throbbed. She had a clear understanding of how much trouble this wealthy woman could cause.
"Yes." Aunt Neile nodded and stood by the entrance, waiting for Susan.
Susan walked in, and Aunt Neile had already placed disposable slippers neatly. She smiled and greeted, "Madam Crawford,
please change into the slippers."
Susan looked at the disposable slippers on the floor with a cold expression on her face. She stood there without changing and
asked, "Has Luke come back?"
“Mr. Crawford hasn't returned yet," replied Aunt Neile. She quickly added, "But he's already on his way back."
"What about Luca?"

"Ms. Luca has already returned," answered Aunt Neile. Aunt Neile immediately understood that Susan had come to look for
trouble with Luca.
Susan changed her shoes when she heard that. Then, she walked into the living room and saw Luca sitting on the sofa, working
on something.
When Susan came closer, she saw that Luca was handling some herbs. She was putting them into glass jars.
Susan noticed Luca did not show any reaction when she saw her walking in. Hence, she walked over and took a seat on the sofa
in front of her, sitting with an upright posture. Then, she cleared her throat lightly.
Luca lifted her gaze and saw her. She barely showed any reaction, and she said in a calm tone, "Madam Crawford, are you here
to see Luke? He's still on his way. Please wait for a while."
When Susan saw Luca's attitude, she could not help but become irritated. She said, "I'm not here for him."
Luca paused for a moment, then she asked again, "Then..."
"I'm here to look for Louis," answered Susan.
Not only was Luca surprised, but even Aunt Neile, who was serving Susan tea, was also taken aback. She came here to look for
Louis?
"Madam Crawford, you might be in the wrong place. Master Louis isn't here." Luca continued packing the herbs into the glass jar.
She finished packing the herbs into one jar and picked up another clean glass jar.
Such bottles had a strong seal. Even if they were placed in a damp area, it would not affect the herbs inside.
"How could he not be here? Didn't Luke secretly take him in?" Susan knew that Louis was not here, but she had no choice but to
say so.
She had no idea where Louis was now.
It was ironic that as a mother, she could not even get in touch with her own son.
