Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 1657

Luca agreed, and the topic ended.

There was another round of silence at the dining table.

Luca raised her gaze and sneaked a glance at Luke, who was holding a piece of meat that was soft and shredded after being cooked for a while. He was not frowning.

In the past, he disliked soft foods as such. It was impossible that Mrs. Nancy did not know his preferences. It was likely that he ordered Mrs. Nancy to cook the food like this so that it was easy for her to chew.

Luca looked at the soft dishes on the table and asked, "Mr. Crawford, I assthese meals are not to your taste..."

Luke looked up, his eyes carrying an emotion that she could not understand. "You know my taste?"

Luca was startled and quickly said, "These foods are too soft. I think your teeth are so good that you probably don't like soft foods. Shall I cook a dish for you?"

Luke listened to her concern. It was obvious that she paid a lot of attention to him but she deliberately kept a distance and even thought about how to escape from him.

"No, I like it soft. I don't like it hard." His words had a special meaning behind them.

Luca was taken aback.

'He likes it soft and doesn't like it hard... He's someone who can't be swayed.'

Luca continued to eat. After she was done, she habitually stood up to clear the dishes. When she reached out to pick up the plate, she saw Luke get up and take the plate from her hand.

"I'll do it." He cleared the table.

Luca watched him tidy everything up. Her hands were not injured but he treated her as if she was missing slimbs.

Luca sighed.

Luke heard her sigh and looked up. "Don't think too much about it. I'll take you to meet someone tomorrow morning."

"Who?" Luca asked. She thought that it was someone who had nothing to do with work.

She was in front of him and was not even allowed to do any housework, so how could it be related to work?

"Someone who needs your help," Luke said. He picked up all the dishes and headed to the kitchen.

Luca looked at his back and thought, 'Can he do the dishes? Will he dry the dishes before putting them in the cupboard after washing them?'

She was still worried. When she walked to the kitchen door, Luke seemed to sense her even though he did not turn around. "Don't worry, I won't mess up your kitchen."

"I just want a glass of water..." Luca said. She did not expect that he would know about her worries.

"The kitchen is small. Don't cin. I'll pour a glass for you later," Luke said.

In the past, others would pour water for him but now he offered to pour water for her. No matter how she thought of it, she felt like it was all an illusion.

Luca sat on the sofa and listened to his movements in the kitchen.

Luke was just cleaning and it was not like he had broken any dishes, so she did not hear much.

Ten minutes later, Luke walked out of the kitchen with a glass of warm water and handed it to her. "The water is warm. You can drink it now."

Luca took it but did not drink it immediately. She placed it on the coffee table instead. She picked up the medicines Johann had prescribed her and divided them according to the doctor's order.

Luke looked at the pills in her palm and asked, "Why so many pills?"

Luca glanced at the medicines, which were all nourishing medicines. It seemed that her hemoglobin was low before, which caused Johann to worry.

"These are medicines for nourishing blood. I assDr. Park was worried about my poor physical indicators, so he prescribed these medicines," she explained. Although it was only because the previous physical indicators were affected by the drug from the Island of Despair, these medicines were good for the body, so she did not mind taking them.

Luke nodded. Bianca used to look weak but she was in great health. He was sure that she had suffered through hell seeing her current condition.

'If she did not suffer, how could her health have becso bad?'

Luca did not frown at the bitterness of the pills. She just swallowed them and finished the glass of water.

Luke watched her. After a few days of recuperation, her health was indeed much better now. When she was first hospitalized, he was so distressed that he could hardly breathe upon seeing how she was having problems drinking water.

Luca finished drinking the water and stood up, wanting to put the glass away.

Luke said, "I'll do it for you."

Luca was stunned. She handed him the glass of water and said, "Thank you."

It was a harmonious situation as though the two were husband and wife. At this moment, the husband was taking care of his sick wife.

Luke put the glass back in the kitchen. He looked at Luca's sterilizer and his eyes flickered when he saw that there were still a few bottles in it.

The company made all the researchers sign an agreement. Drugs that were part of the company's research were not allowed to leave the company. These bottles must have nothing to do with the research she did in the company.

'What are these? What has she experienced in the past three years?' Luca saw Luke walk into the kitchen. When it was still dead quiet after a while, she got up and walked to the kitchen.

She stood at the door and saw him holding a mobile phone as if he was on a call.

Upon seeing this, Luca did not say anything.

Luke saw her too. After he heard the reply on the phone, he said, "I'll be right back."

With that, he left the kitchen.

"In the afternoon, a part-tworker will cto help with cleaning and grocery shopping. I'll let Jason send you the part-tworker's contact later. You can tell her what you want to eat via text. She'll take care of you." Luke urged while putting on his coat.

"Okay." Luca could feel his meticulous care for her but she had to remind herself not to be moved by his actions.

Luke added, "I'll cto pick you up tomorrow morning. Rest early tonight."

"Mm." Luca did not know where they were going but she would not turn him down as he mentioned it was to help someone.

After Luke finished speaking, he opened the door of the apartment and left.

Luca looked at the closed door as a feeling of melancholy slowly rose from her heart.

‘He's so busy but he's wasting ton me... Is it true that he's interested in me?'

When Luca thought about it, she immediately shook her head. Although she was Bianca, her identity was Luca.

If Luke fell in love with her...

She could not imagine that. She felt horrible but she did not know how to understand this hypothetical situation to make herself feel better.

After a while, the phone rang.

Luca picked it up and saw that it was Jason. He had sent the hourly worker's contact to her.

The hourly worker was hired by Jason, so it was not arranged by Luke himself. The hourly worker would likely not be sent to monitor her.

As she thought about that, she added the contact. She then asked Jason: [Uh, did Mr. Crawford give you a hard time?]

Jason replied immediately: [Not yet, but the boss wasn't in the company this morning. I don't know if he'll blhim when he comes back later.]

[He won't. Don't worry.] Luca could feel Jason's apprehension through the screen and comforted him.
