Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 1761

Luca stood by the door and watched as Luke carefully put Tommy on the bed. She glanced around the bedroom and noticed that there was a kid’s table, bedding, and thick carpet. It must have taken a lot of work to prepare all these.

She was not angry about it, but the turbidity in her heart becstronger.

Luke had confessed to her, and it turned out he had not given up even after not getting the answer he wanted.

She was like a fish that unknowingly swam into the trap he set, foolishly thinking that he had given up on her.

Luca took another look at the guest bedrooms. There was Lanie’s room, Rainie’s room, and the guest bedroom opposite the master bedroom...

She opened the door and saw the black, white, and gray interior as well as the large bed and the office desk. She immediately knew that this was the bedroom Luke had prepared for himself.

It was just opposite her bedroom. They would bump into each other when they stepped out of their rooms.

Luca shook her head.

After Luke tucked Tommy in, he stepped out and closed the door.

"Mr. Crawford, can we talk downstairs?" Luca said.

Luke nodded.

Luca went downstairs with him and stood in the middle of the living room. She was amused as she looked up at the dazzling crystal chandelier.

She was tricked by Luke and she did not find out until it was too late. She really thought they were celebrating her moving in...

"Mr. Crawford, if you want to move in with the kids, I can move back to the apartment. If it’s inconvenient forto live in the company's apartment, I have no problem going back to my own apartment," Luca said. She did not know how to describe her feelings after she knew that Luke had not given up on her.

Luke noticed how serious she was and knew she was not joking. He knew that if he nodded, she would leave right away.

"The kids like you. The troubles at Crawford Manor are piling up. It's not good for the kids' development, so I decided to move here. I knew you wouldn't agree, so I decided to make a move and ask for permission later." Luke confessed.

"You still wantto stay here? Is that appropriate?" Luca clenched her fists. She was not angry. She just felt powerless.

Luke nodded. "The kids like you. It's appropriate."

"I don't think so. It's not appropriate at all. Mr. Crawford, it's best that I move out. If we get photographed by reporters, both of us will be embarrassed. We should keep a safe distance." Luca wanted to live with him too, but she knew that she could not hold onto that dream.

She would have to leave sooner or later. If she dared to imagine a life of them being together, she was afraid that she would not be able to bring herself to leave when the tcame.

Luke frowned when he saw how determined and heartless she was. He said, "I can tell that you like them a lot. If you leave them so heartlessly, they'll be very disappointed. What I told you before is not a joke, Luca. You shouldn't run away. You should think about it carefully.”

"The answer I gave you before is not a joke either. Although you think I haven't thought about it carefully, it's what I feel from the bottom of my heart." Luca calmed down and acted as though her decision was firm.

Luke raised his eyebrows and responded, "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure." Luca took a deep breath, endured the stabbing pain she felt in her heart. She deceived both herself and him.

In fact, she wanted to hug Luke and stay by his side more than anything.

"You're lying. Your eyes tellthat you're making this up. What a fool. I'll give you a night to think about it. You can decide if you dislikeand the kids..." Luke looked at her tough attitude and was tempted to tell her the truth about how he already knew everything.

However, he held back with consideration of her safety.

Luca's body trembled involuntarily. She knew that he was pushing it. She said, "Frankly, I do like the kids but I can't stay by your side because of them. I can't force myself to like you because of the kids."

What she said was hurtful. It still hurt even though Luke knew it was not the truth.

He was someone who dealt with his feelings with incomparable coldness. Nevertheless, he had fallen for her tand tagain.

Luke was even tempted to tie her up until she was willing to admit the truth!

"I'll give you a night to think about it," Luke said, then walked upstairs.

Lanie, who was standing at the corner of the stairs, heard their entire conversation. When he saw his father leave, he shook his head helplessly.

Luke looked at his son's expression, his mood was ashen. He had overestimated Luca's soft heart. She would make all kinds of sacrifices for the kids but when it cto him, she would bury all her sensibility and force herself to be rational.

Lanie made a gesture to tell Luke to leave the matter to him.

Luke did not say anything and went upstairs.

Lanie followed behind Luke. He had to pretend he did not hear the conversation between the grownups.

Luca watched as the man's figure left her sight and adjusted her breathing. When Luke said what he said earlier, she was on the brink of breaking down. For a fleeting moment, she wanted to be impulsive and tell him everything, including Abel's conspiracy and how he was forcing her.

If Luke learned everything and rescued Nyla, she could risk her life and cherish the rest of her twith them.

However, what she wanted more was to live with the children for a long time, to watch them grow up, and stay by their sides as they started their own families.

As such, no matter what, she could only do as Abel said and could not afford to act rashly.

Luca went upstairs, depressed.

As soon as she walked into her bedroom and sat down on her bed, there was a knock on her door.

"Ms. Luca, can I cin?" Lanie's voice cfrom outside the door.

Luca said, "Cin."

Lanie opened the door and walked in.

Luca adjusted the expression on her face and asked with concern, "What's wrong? It's getting late, why aren't you in bed?"

"I'm different from my younger siblings. Although I think that Grandma is scary, she doesn't impact me much." Lanie stood in front of her and said, "Ms. Luca, can I sit down?"

"Of course," Luca nodded.

Lanie sat next to her and said, "Ms. Luca... Daddy likes you very much."

"You're a kid. How do you know all this? Besides, this is your Daddy's matter. Maybe it's not what you think it is," Luca said while rubbing his head.

Lanie shook her head and said, "He likes you. Before Mommy lost her memories, Daddy treated her just like he how he treats you now, Ms. Luca."

"You're still young, so you can't don't know chalk from cheese." Luca pinched his nose and looked at his facial features. She was filled with emotions.

Of the three children, he was the most like Luke.

"I do know, and I also know that my mommy is gone. Rainie and Tommy are aware of it as well but we didn't say anything to the public so no woman would hit on Daddy." Lanie leaned his head on her arm. He also wanted to feel the warmth from being in his Mommy's arms after seeing Tommy do it.
