Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 1388

After Luke left the room, Wendy picked up the flask and fruit basket, took Lydia’s hand, and left the room.

In the room, the caretaker looked at Tommy and asked, “Master Tommy, do you think Sir will blme for what I said?”

Tommy shook his head. “Definitely not. Daddy hates people like her. You did a good job, and I think Daddy should give you a pay raise!”

Tommy had seen similar scenes frequently play out in the past. He was not surprised by what happened earlier.

He had to admit that his father was very handsome, and many women were attracted to him. That was why he knew how to deal with situations like that. Even if Luke eventually divorced Bianca, Tommy would not want Lydia’s mother to be their mother!

Tommy rubbed his chin. Indeed, Luca was still the prcandidate.

Meanwhile, Luke arrived at the elevator lobby. While waiting for the elevator, Wendy and her daughter arrived there too.

She deliberately stood near him, which caused her to blush.

‘He smells so nice…’

Lydia wagged her hand as though she was trying to hint at something.

Wendy cto her senses. She smiled and asked Luke, “Where are you going, Mr. Crawford?”

“I have sbusiness back in the company,” Luke said. Actually, Gale had told him that there was something urgent.

“Company business… are you in a hurry? If you’re not, can Lydia and I ride along with you? It’s only ten minutes away. It’s a little hard to catch a cab at this hour, and I wouldn’t want to im…”

“It’s very urgent,” Luke interrupted her before she could finish her sentence.

Wendy’s face turned red with embarrassment after the repeated rejections.

She thought that she was quite attractive, but that man did not seem to be interested at all.

Subconsciously, her grip on Lydia’s hand becharder. “Mommy,” she called out softly because she could not take it anymore.

Wendy cto her senses and smiled. “I see, then I shouldn’t take up any more of your time. Lydia and I can catch a cab home.”

Wendy tried to make herself sound as pitiful as possible, but Luke remained impassive. The woman next to her was no more than a stranger.

He only talked to her because her daughter was Tommy’s classmate. Otherwise, he would not even have bothered.

The elevator doors opened, and Luke went inside.

Wendy wanted to stand next to him, but the other people in the elevator pushed her to a corner. She had no choice but to stand in a corner with her daughter on the ride down.

She stepped out of the elevator at the first-floor lobby. Before she left, she turned her head and looked longingly at Luke.

Luke exited the elevator at the basement level, went to his car, and sped toward the mansion in the outskirts.

Gale was already waiting for him at the door.

“You’re here, Boss,” he said.

Luke stepped out of the car and went into the house. “What happened?”

“That woman suddenly had a seizure. Rain is treating her now, and we still don’t know what happened.” Earlier, Gale had informed Luke immediately after Bianca went into a seizure.

After all, the impostor Bianca had the information they wanted on the Island of Despair.

“Letsee.” Luke walked down the stairs toward the basement.

A pungent stench assailed their nostrils when the basement door opened. Gale explained, “We’ve been cleaning up every day, but that woman is making a mess on purpose. Sorry that we can’t do anything about the smell.”

Luke frowned and walked inside. He saw Rain injecting Bianca with something, so he asked her, “What’s her condition?”

“From what I observe, she’s exhibiting withdrawal symptoms,” Rain explained. After injecting the liquid into Bianca’s veins, she pulled out the needle and carefully put the drop of blood stuck to it into a beaker.

She would use it for research later.

“Withdrawal symptoms? From what?” Luke asked. In the three years the impostor Bianca lived in Crawford Manor, Luke had never seen her take any drugs.

“Boss, do you remember the drug that Kassy used to give you to brainwash you? It’s a vial of blue liquid,” Rain said.

Luke nodded. The horrible stench in the air caused him to frown hard.

“There’s a doctor on the Island of Despair that invents new types of drugs. When we were there, this drug was still under development, and they only experimented with it on the captives. It’s like a poison, but its effects can be suppressed by taking the antidote at regular intervals. It’s been a few years, so I guess that the drug must be ready for widespread usage by now. The people on the Island of Despair must have taken the drug before they leave, and their movements are controlled by issuing them the drug periodically,” Rain guessed.

Luke’s expression darkened when he heard that. “What are you giving her now?”

“A sedative,” Rain said. “Her seizures were quite serious. If I don’t give her a sedative, I don’t know if she’d be able to last through the night. That’s all I can do for now. I’ll analyze the blood sample to see if my guess is true, but even if it is, don’t put too much hope on it. I can’t create an antidote so quickly. You should be mentally prepared, Boss…”

What Rain meant was that Luke should be prepared that Bianca’s life might be in danger because they did not have the antidote.

Luke’s expression darkened even more. He went up to the impostor Bianca, grabbed her collar even though it was filthy, and asked her, “Where is my wife?”

The impostor Bianca was still conscious. She laughed contemptuously and said weakly, “I don’t know. Even if I do, I won’t tell you.”

Luke’s grip on her neck bectighter.

The impostor Bianca struggled to breathe. She slowly closed her eyes and tried hard not to beg.

Over the past few days, she had experienced the man’s heartlessness. He would not yield no matter how she begged him.

She did not want to die just like that.

She had been hoping that he would beg her to save Tommy, but he did not have any intention of doing that…

‘Could it be…’

Feeling the grip around her neck becoming tighter and tighter, she said, “I’d rather die… than tell you… where the real Bianca is… Also… if I die… your son won’t live too… only I can save him!”

A hint of viciousness flashed in Luke’s eyes. He lifted the impostor Bianca up high, then let go of her.

Bang! She fell heavily on the bed.

The pain already in the impostor Bianca’s body made her unable to feel any more external pain. She laughed savagely and said, “Hahahaha! Are you willing to let your son die just so that you can find your wife?”
