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

Chapter 3373 For Luca, And For Their Child "It's nothing. I just think you and our boss make a perfect match." Luca decided not to say anything more. She was unwilling to risk causing trouble for herself.

Hera felt that there was something mocking in her tone. It was meant to be a compliment, yet it felt like mockery, leaving her with the sense that something was off.

Hera let out a cold snort. "Of course, we're a perfect match. No need for you to say it." Even though she knew there was an undertone of sarcasm, she still acknowledged it. She sized Luca up with a look of disdain. "You're a doctor, right?" Luca shook her head. "Not exactly." Gerald explained, "Ms. Sanchez, she's skilled in medicine, but she wouldn't call herself a doctor." Hera shot him an annoyed glance and then tumed back to Luca. "It's fine as long as you know medicine. I'm not feeling well. Chelpwith streatment." Gerald had no choice but to awkwardly suggest, "Ms. Sanchez, if you're not feeling unwell, perhaps I could ask Mr. Shanks to check on you?" "Have a man treat me? No way. My dear would get jealous. I want her to do it." Hera pointed at Luca. "Let's go." "Sorry, I'm busy," Luca headed back to the lab without any expression on her face.

Hera's eyes widened in disbelief. She could not believe she had been rejected! "How dare you refuse me?" "Ms. Sanchez, her job isn't to treat people. She's here for the experiment," explained Gerald. He admired Luca's courage. She rejected the boss' girlfriend after being slapped. Was she not afraid of getting beaten again? "I don't care what her job is. I want her to listen to me!" Hera insisted, stepping forward to follow Luca Gerald, seeing that she was about to barge into the lab, quickly stopped her, "Ms. Sanchez, please don't go in there." "What? Is there somewhere I'm not allowed to go? She can go in, so why can't I?" Hera shot him a glare, already acting like she owned the place.

Gerald tried to explain, "This is the lab, and everything inside is important. If something gets ruined, the boss will be upset. You might be the boss' girlfriend, but srules still apply. We, the staff, aren't even allowed in..." Hera raised her hand and slapped him across the face. "It's your problem you can't go in. I'm the boss' girlfriend! What's off-limits to me? Get out of my way!" Gerald winced in pain. Even though her slap was light, he dared not stop her. He quietly stepped aside.

Hera stared at him in disbelief. Did he really just back off without a word? Was he not going to stop her? Even though Hera was spoiled, she was well aware of where she stood with Abel.

She could call herself his girlfriend in front of his staff, but deep down, she knew she was nothing. She was nothing more than a business transaction. Abel only wanted her body and had no true affection for her...

Still, after being humiliated by Luca, she was determined to press forward.

Luca did not take Hera seriously, so Hera went straight to Abel to complain. Hera believed that, no matter what, she was more important than a woman like Luca.

However, the outcwas not what she expected.

She returned to her bedroom, tearfully recounting to Abel how Luca had disrespected her. Not only had Luca refused to help treat her, but Luca had also shown her attitude. Abel's expression darkened as he listened. She only saw the look on Abel's face when she stopped crying. She felt secretly pleased. So, Abel really did care about her, after all.

The next second, she found herself yanked by the hair.

Hera screamed.

"What the hell made you bother Luca?" questioned Abel.

"I didn't... I was just feeling unwell.." Hera was panicked. She was confused about what was happening.

Abel stomped out his cigar in frustration, then gripped her chin, forcing her to look up at him. "Letsay this one last taside from those two in the lab, anyone else here is fair gfor you to boss around. Do you understand?" Hera felt a wave of regret. What Gerald had said was true, and now, she was deeply sorry for her actions. She could feel Abel's gaze piercing through her, as though he would tear her into pieces and devour her. She immediately begged for mercy, "Sorry, I was wrong. I won't ever bother the people from the lab again. I promise." Abel's anger still smoldered inside him, but he could not bring himself to physically lash out at Hera, not when her eyes reminded him so much of Kassy's.

Instead, he tore her clothes to pieces, using another way to release his anger.

Outside, Gerald stood listening. When the frightened screams turned into low hums of satisfaction, he quickly left to avoid being accused of eavesdropping.

Later that night, Luca dragged her exhausted body back to her room.

When she opened the door, she was startled to see Luke sitting on the edge of the bed waiting for her. She quickly shut the door and locked it behind her.

"What happened to your face?" Luke's voice was filled with concern as soon as he saw the swollen half of her face.

Luca walked over and hugged him, finding comfort only in the security of his embrace. It was the only place where she could empty all her exhaustion and frustration.
