Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 1458

Luke remained impassive despite Tia’s eager hospitality. “When does your lecture start?”

“In about half an hour,” Tia stayed as her gaze remained glued on Luke. She wished that he would look at her as well.

“I’ll go around and have a look at the exhibition. I’ll be back later,” Luke said, turned around, and headed toward the exit.

Tia quickly followed behind him. “Letgive you a tour. I know this place very well.”

Luke stopped walking and turned around to look at the stage. “Your lecture is coming up soon. Shouldn’t you stay behind and make preparations?”

Just as he finished speaking, Tia’s assistant cup to her and said, “Ms. Tia, I’ve already downloaded your presentation into the computer, but there seems to be sproblem with the layout. Did you make any changes?”

Tia was angry and flustered, but she could not reprimand her assistant in front of Luke.

She maintained her composure and said to the assistant, “I’ll go and take a look. Right, reserve a front- row seat for Mr. Crawford.”

“Alright.” The assistant nodded at Luke, then left with Tia.

Without Tia bugging him, Luke quickly left the hall. From afar, he noticed Luca and Nina strolling around the exhibition, and he walked toward them.

Luca did not look like she was in the mood for strolling.

Nina noticed Luke first. She tugged Luca’s sleeve, then they went up to Luke. “I didn’t expect to see you here, Mr. Crawford.”

Luke remained impassive, even though Nina looked like she wanted to interrogate him. “Just walking around.”

“Walking around? You’re here on a date, right? What would Bea think of this?” Nina frowned and reminded him about Bianca.

Even though Bianca was traveling overseas, Nina was helping her keep an eye on Luke.

In fact, Nina was suspecting that Bianca did not want to travel overseas. Perhaps Luke had gotten tired of her and sent her away.

His reputation would be affected if he divorced Bianca. Sending her away was the perfect excuse for him to do whatever he wanted.

Seeing that Nina was speaking up for Bianca, Luke casually placed his hands in his pockets.

Nina continued, “Why aren’t you saying anything? Are you feeling guilty?”

“I didn’t do anything that betrays Bea’s trust,” Luke said calmly. He looked as though he was not guilty at all.

Luca looked at Nina and gently tugged her sleeve. The man was the center of attention wherever he went, and people were beginning to crowd around them.

Nina grunted coldly and softened her tone. “It doesn’t mean that you won’t do anything to betray her trust in the future. Lettell you, I have my eyes on you. I’ll tell Bea the moment I catch you doing anything silly!”

Luke raised his eyebrows. He knew that Nina could not manage her relationship problems, yet she wanted to meddle in other people’s relationships.

He shot a glance at Luca. Color had returned to her face, and she looked a lot better than when she was on the stage.

Luke said to Nina, “Nina Langdon, instead of worrying about what I’m doing, why don’t you worry about Percy?”

‘Percy?’

“What’s wrong with Percy?” Nina blurted without any hesitation.

“Don’t you know he’s with another woman now?” Luke said.

Nina’s body teetered, and she took a step back.

Luca immediately supported her by holding her arm. Seeing Luke say that to her best friend, she said, “Mr. Crawford, I don’t think it’s appropriate for you to air their personal matters in public.”

“Ms. Langdon doesn’t wish to see Bea bullied, so she’s keeping a close eye on my personal life. I’m only giving her a reminder,” Luke said as he looked at the two women.

Luca had always been cold toward the people in the company, but her relationship with Nina seemed different.

Bianca used to be Nina’s best friend. She would stand up for Nina without hesitation whenever Nina needed help.

He seemed to have caught a hint of Bianca’s personality in Luca when he saw how Luca said and acted.

A public announcement was heard. Tia’s lecture was going to start soon.

Nina took several deep breaths and grinned. “Mr. Crawford, Tia’s lecture is starting soon. I’m afraid that she won’t be in the mood to give her lecture if she doesn’t see you there.”

“Thanks for the reminder,” Luke said.

He was not a nosy person, but from how Nina had been so protective of Bianca, he thought that she should know what was going on with Percy too.

Percy had his way of dealing with the woman his mother was trying to match him with, but Luke thought that he should let Nina know about it.

This way, he helped both Nina and Percy.

After watching Luke leave, Luca looked at Nina worriedly, “Are you okay?”

“I’m fine.” Nina took a deep breath. Ever since she met Percy’s mother, she knew that this day would come.

Even though she had been by Percy’s side for a long time, she knew her place very well. The difference in their backgrounds meant that their relationship would not last.

Now that someone with a matching background had appeared in Percy’s life, it was tfor her, the illicit lover, to leave.

Nina had always dreamed of leaving Percy. She had also thought of the multiple ways she could leave. Perhaps one day she would save enough money to pay Percy back. Perhaps Percy would eventually tire of her and dump her. Perhaps, he might find true love…

In any case, their relationship was doomed to fail.

Even though Nina had been thinking about it, she realized that her reaction was different when faced with the truth. Somehow, she felt a tightness in her chest, and all her strength had been sapped away.

She tried to take several deep breaths to get rid of that feeling, but there was no effect at all…

Luca could tell that Nina was not in the mood to enjoy the exhibition anymore.

In any case, she was thinking of leaving too. She said, “Why don’t we leave?”

“Alright,” Nina replied, and they left the exhibition hall.

In the open-air parking lot, Luca looked around to see if the truck was still there. She could only see sedans.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

When they arrived at Nina’s car, Luca saw that Nina seemed distracted. “Why don’t you letdrive?” She said.

Nina nodded, thinking that it was the safer option. She handed Luca the keys.

Luca sat in the driver’s seat and waited for Nina to sit in the side passenger seat. “I’ll send you home,” she said.

“Don’t worry about me. Didn’t you want to go to the security guard’s house? I’ll go with you,” Nina shook her head and said. She was not in the condition to return to the mansion now.
