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

"Since you think it's nice too, I'll buy it," replied Nina, proceeding to place the order.
After placing the order, Nina rose to her feet.
"Where are you going?" asked Luca.
"I'd like to use the restroom," answered Nina with a smile on her face.
At the thought that Karen was also dining in this restaurant, Luca stood up and said, "I'll go with you."
"You're going too?" Nina asked in surprise, wondering why Luca was going again when she had just come back.
"Just keeping you company," said Luca. She took Nina's hand as they walked out of the private room together.
Luke and Percy, who were behind them, did not say anything. Luca closed the private room door behind her and then walked toward the restroom with Nina.
When Nina saw this, she could not help but say, "Why do I feel like you're acting strangely?"
"Am I?" Luca shook her head. "I just want to be with you."
"You were gone for so long just now. Did you meet someone?" asked Nina, feeling that Luca's behavior was odd. She wondered if Luca had met someone just now, hence her long absence.
"Nina, you've become very shrewd lately. You're no longer easily fooled," replied Luca in a helpless tone.
"You were thinking of fooling me? Looks like I guessed right. Who did you meet just now? To make you so eager to be my bodyguard..." Nina had just finished speaking when she suddenly realized something and said, "Could it be... Madam Mallory?"
The only people who could make Luca alert and want to protect her were few.
Karen was one, and Pierre was another.
Pierre was currently in the hospital. Luca could not have met him here.
Hence, it had to be Karen.
However, she usually would not dine at this restaurant. How did they manage to run into each other this time?
Could it be that Karen intentionally investigated them and followed them?
"You're right, it's her. But this time, she's not here for you and Mr. Mallory," replied Luca. She accompanied Nina just because she had not agreed to Karen's request earlier. Therefore, Karen might be upset now.
If Karen spotted Nina right now, she might want to take action against Nina again.
"She's not here for me and Percy? Is she here for you, then?" Nina boldly guessed. Then, she was shocked. Instead of heading toward the restroom, she kept looking at Luca. "Did she do anything to you? Let me see!"
"I'm fine. She can't do anything to me. I just don't know where she heard about me treating Tyrone with dry needling. She came looking for me to ask me to treat Pierre," Luca explained helplessly. "There's no way I'll treat Pierre. That's why I rejected her."
"What happened after you rejected her?" asked Nina with concern.
Luca held her hand and walked toward the restroom. "Nothing happened. I came out of the restroom and went back to the private room. Look at me, I'm fine. Don't worry."
"Wasn't your treatment of Tyrone supposed to be kept a secret? How did she find out? Dr. Wood couldn't have told her," Nina wondered aloud.
Luca had repeatedly instructed both the hospital staff and the Hugh family not to disclose anything to outsiders.
All of them had agreed.
Furthermore, she later heard that Tyrone's mother took the money given by Percy and went back to the countryside.
It had been so long since then, and Karen could not have possibly known anything from the Hugh family.
That left only the doctors and nurses.
However, they all had professional ethics and had promised Luca not to disclose anything.
Even though this was the case, Nina knew that even though it was unlikely, someone must have leaked the information.
"Who knows? After all, they're the Mallory family. If they want to investigate something, they can still find out," said Luca. Even though she was puzzled, she did not dwell on it much. Now that Karen knew, there was no point in pursuing it further.
The sign indicating that the restroom was being cleaned, which had been standing upright just moments ago, had been removed.
Luca pushed open the door and glanced inside. Karen was no longer there. She said, "Let's go."
"Okay." Nina nodded. She felt quite frightened that Karen was around.
If Karen could not control her emotions and lay her hands on her, Percy would
not be lenient.
Hence, it would be best not to encounter Karen.
With Luca by her side, her sense of security doubled. Suddenly, she was not so
afraid anymore.
Luca did not follow Nina inside but stood at the entrance of the restroom.
After a while, Nina's voice came from inside, "Luca, are you still outside?"
"I am. What's wrong?" replied Luca. She pushed open the door to the restroom without waiting for Nina to continue speaking.
She walked in and saw Nina standing in front of the sink, looking shocked.
Luca followed her gaze to the sink.
There was a row of spacious and bright mirrors in front of the sink, designed to provide ladies with special lighting to do their makeup. These mirrors had been
smashed.
"They were fine just now..." muttered Luca. Then, she realized something.
This must have been Karen's doing. She wanted to let off steam by breaking things, so she went ahead and smashed the mirrors without a second thought. "Did she really do this?" Nina's eyes widened. How much anger did she have to smash these mirrors into this state? Moreover, these mirrors were of really good quality. What did Karen use to smash them so thoroughly?
Luca and Nina shared the same question. Did she use her fist?
However, Luca immediately denied it. When Karen was impulsive, she would
lose her rationality, but she had to preserve her self-interests.
With that being the case, Karen must have used a tool.
Luca shook her head and looked around the restroom but could not find the tool
used to smash the mirrors.
"Should we inform the manager?" Nina suddenly asked.
Although there was no surveillance camera installed in the restroom, there were
cameras installed at the entrance.
If they accessed the surveillance footage, they could find out who had entered the restroom...
However, it would still be troublesome as they would not be able to find out who smashed the mirrors...
"Let's go back first," suggested Luca. She did not want Luke and Percy to know that Karen showed up in this restaurant today.
Still, now that Karen had done something like this, they could not keep it a secret
anymore.
Also, everyone came here to dine, and there was no one who had a deep grudge against this restaurant to smash their mirrors.
"Okay..." Nina nodded. If they had to compensate, they could afford it.
However, what would the manager think when he saw the mirrors smashed to
this state?
Luca and Nina walked back to the private room. They did not encounter Karen while they were on their way back.
Luca reckoned that Karen left immediately after she smashed the mirrors.
Luca and Nina pushed open the door to the private room and walked in. After closing the door, instead of sitting back on the couch right away, they stood in front of the two men.
"What's wrong?" Luke noticed that Luca's expression was off and looked nervous
as he scrutinized them. He knew that Abel had come to A City, so he immediately
wondered if Luca had encountered Abel.
Perhaps he called Luca?
