Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 1690

“It's alright. Lettake the maid's room," said Luke. He unbuttoned the two buttons on his shirt, pulled off his tie, and headed to the maid's room.

It seemed like he was looking for clothes to change into.

Luca felt helpless when he rejected her offer. She had no choice but to take off the coat. Something cinto her mind, and she habitually reached her hand into the coat's pocket to check if anything was in it.

It was a habit of hers. Sometimes, Luke used to put little things in his coat. For example, a lighter or sother things. Hence, she made it a habit to check his pockets before she put them in the washing machine so that the things would not get ruined after soaking in water.

Luke held another clean shirt and walked out of the room. He happened to see what she was doing.

Their eyes met. Luca was afraid that he might misunderstand her, so she explained immediately, "Mr. Crawford, I just wanted to check if there was anything in your pocket. If there was nothing in it, I was going to leave it on the balcony. The cleaning lady will be here to wash it tomorrow."

"Mm." Luke did not expose her little habitual action. It was what Bianca used to do back then.

It had been three years. Everything else about her had not changed even a little when she was with him, except that she was disguising her identity.

"I'll go take a shower first," said Luke. Then, he walked into the shared bathroom.

As Luca watched the bathroom door close, she helplessly put his clothes into the laundry basket on the balcony. When she touched the coat just now, she noticed that the material was not suitable to be washed with the washing machine. Therefore, she thought of personally washing Luke's clothes for him tomorrow.

Luca brought in the laundry that was thoroughly dry after she left the clothes in the laundry basket.

Then, she separated the laundry. She hung Luke's clothes back into the maid's room, while she took her clothes back into her bedroom.

She also brought the two folders into her bedroom.

Luke was here. It would be inconvenient for her to do her work in the living room, so she had no choice but to do it in the bedroom.

After she closed the door, she sat down in front of the dressing table. Luke got her the dressing table after she moved in. She thought it was of little use. After all, she preferred dressing up casually. The dressing table was like a decoration for her.

However, she did not expect the dressing table to becher workstation for tonight.

Luca switched on her laptop and downloaded the documents she had sent to herself via email.

When she was about to continue working on translating the documents, someone knocked on the bedroom door.

Luca tensed up and sat still without moving. She asked right away, “Mr. Crawford, what's the matter?"

"It's late. Stop working," Luke said. He saw that her bedroom was still lit and reckoned that Luca was still working.

It was already late at night. He could not bear to see her staying up late to work overtime.

"Okay. I got it." Luca looked at the translated documents and wondered, 'Can he see what I'm doing when the door is closed?'

She hesitated for half a minute, then switched off the laptop.

Since it did not seem to be too urgent, she would just reswork tomorrow, then. Besides, she had to wake up early to make breakfast for him tomorrow morning. She should not take the risk of waking up late.

Luca quickly washed up and turned off the lights to get srest.

Throughout the entire time, Luke was standing at the bedroom door. When he saw the lights switching off in the bedroom, only then did he switch off the lights in the living room too. Then, he walked into the maid's room.

Someday, he would hold Bianca in his arms again.

He surely would...

The next day.

Luca woke up and glanced at the time. She immediately sat up, rushed into the bathroom, and washed up. Then, she headed to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

Last night, she was worried she would not be able to wake up, so she deliberately did not take any sleeping pills. She did not expect that she would still wake up slightly late today.

Usually, if she did not take the pills, she would wake up on teven if she did not set an alarm. Sometimes, she could even get up earlier than usual. It was an exceptional case today.

It was probably because she slept well and that was why it happened.

Luca did not think further as she knew the peace in the depths of her heart cfrom Luke.

She opened the fridge and looked at the ingredients the cleaning lady bought. She quickly decided what to make for breakfast, then started preparing.

After Luke woke up, he wanted to head to the bathroom. When he saw that the bedroom door was left open, he knew Luca had woken up. She was probably in the kitchen.

He turned around and walked toward the kitchen.

Before he reached, he heard noises coming from the kitchen. Luca was making breakfast. Indeed.

Luke smiled when he saw her waking up early in the morning to prepare breakfast for him.

This was the kind of daily life activity that he missed the most. It was also what he liked the most.

He did not disturb the woman who was busy making breakfast. Instead, he turned around and walked into the bathroom.

After Luca finished preparing breakfast, she carried the food out of the kitchen. Luke was already sitting on the couch watching the business news.

It was his everyday routine.

Luca looked at his figure. She was truly impressed with him. Although he was the owner of the apartment, he no longer stayed here anymore. Still, he could sit on the couch and watch the news comfortably.

“Mr. Crawford, breakfast is ready," she called out.

Luke could smell the fragrance of the food earlier. He had been waiting for her to call out to him. He slowly rose and headed to the dining table when he heard her.

It would be great if she could change the way she called him.

Luca placed his serving of breakfast in front of him, then she placed the cutleries before him too.

Luke sat down, picked up the cutleries, and was ready to eat. "Smells good."

When Luca listened to his compliment, she said helplessly, "The ingredients the cleaning lady bought yesterday didn't look fresh. It might not taste good."

Luke shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter, I'm not picky."

Luca secretly let out a sigh when she heard him say that again.

He was picky. He was much pickier than others, regardless of whether it was in terms of food or things he used.

Luca picked up her cutleries and began to eat her breakfast.

The morning financial news was still being broadcasted. Luca ate her breakfast while listening to it. The news happened to be reporting about the share prices of Johnston Corporation. It had dropped ten percent yesterday.

She looked at Luke in surprise when she heard the news. The man's expression remained calm.

Noticing her gaze, Luke asked her as if nothing was going on, "What's the matter?"

"Mr. Crawford, what happened to the Johnston family?" Luca could not help but ask. She did not care about such things, but the Johnston family had something to do with Pierre. That would indicate that it was probably related to Nina, which was why she was curious about it.

"Didn't you listen to the news?" Luke said. He knew the matter of Johnston Corporation's share prices plunging since the first day.

"No, I don't really pay attention to these," replied Luca. She shot a glance at the TV and thought it was yesterday's news. It had already lost its newsworthiness, and it was not tfor the market to open yet.

Hence, the news was glossed over in just a few words.

"There are always many possibilities when it comes to investing. The person in charge of Johnston Corporation suffered investment losses, so everything got out of control. As a result, it affected their share prices," explained Luke.
