Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

"Alright." Luke did not decline her invitation. He carried his laptop off the bed and settled onto the wicker sofa.
There was a coffee table in front of him, so he placed the laptop on it. After a moment's thought, he decided to sit on the carpet.
"Hmm?" Luca was somewhat puzzled by his actions.
"It's more convenient this way." Luke gestured with his hand to indicate the height of the laptop.
If he sat on the floor, he did not have to lower his head too much, making it easier for him to work.
"Yes, that’s true." Luca glanced at him and placed a cushion behind his back. "This should be more comfortable."
"Yes, it is,” replied Luke. He saw that Luca had already poured a cup of coffee. He reached out, thinking of grabbing it. Luca
placed a piece of fruit near his lips.
"Have some fruit first to boost your vitamins.” Luca smiled.
Luke did not like eating fruits, but Luca's offering was an exception.
He opened his mouth, and Luca fed him the fruit.
Luke savored it.
The fruits prepared by Mr. Mullen were sweet, and the ones Luca fed him were even sweeter.
"Is it good?" asked Luca. "Mr. Mullen said these fruits are the freshest seasonal ones in X City. You might not find anything this
fresh in A City."
"It's good. It’s very sweet," affirmed Luke.
Luca heard him and took a bite as well. Indeed, it was crispy, sweet, and refreshing.
She thought about her three kids. They all loved fruits. If they could taste such sweet and crispy fruits, she wondered how happy
they would be.
At the same time, Luca also thought about Nyla.
The Island of Despair had no shortage of supplies. Those involved in missions were generously provided for.

So, Nyla would not have to go through too many hardships.
However, there were hardly any fresh fruits in the northern region where they were stationed.
For over three years, Luca had not really had much access to fresh fruits, let alone the child.
Abel did not treat Nyla differently just because she was a child.
So, she ate the same food as everyone else.
Luca thought of her and wondered if she would enjoy eating fresh fruits.
After all, when they were on the Island of Despair, Nyla did not show much interest in the island's fruits.
As Luca pondered this, she also thought about the future.
Once Luke rescued the child, the two of them would surely provide the best for them. They would explore the world, let her taste
the most delicious food, experience the seasons, and travel across the country to see the beautiful sceneries she had never
seen before.
Luca thought about it and realized that she had seen a lot, but not Nyla. Even though the child had seen quite a few scenic
photos at Shank’s place.
They were just photos...
"What are you thinking?" Luke saw her lost in thought while eating fruits and could not help but worry. He asked, "Is everything
okay?"

Luca came back to her senses, smiled, and replied, "Nothing, I was just thinking if we should bring some fruits back for the
children."
She did not mention Nyla in front of Luke.
She did not want to add to his worries.
They were definitely going to rescue Nyla, but the process could not be rushed.
They were dealing with the cunning and scheming Abel.
One wrong move, and they could fall into the trap of the Island of Despair.
That was why Luca did not want to increase Luke's concerns. Instead, she changed the topic of the conversation.
Luke knew that the kids liked to eat fruits, so he agreed to Luca's suggestion, "Yes, let's bring some back. I'll have Mr. Mullen
prepare them later."
Luca handed another piece of fruit to his lips.
Luke obediently took a bite.
Luca replied, "Alright, prepare more. It won't spoil in the fridge.”
"Okay. By the way, we’ll be having dinner with Evan tonight," added Luke.
When he mentioned Evan, Luca remembered his attempt to get her to teach part-time at Capital University. Also, she felt a
sense of familiarity every time she saw Evan.

After placing the coffee within his reach, she asked, "Who is this Evan Turner?"
"Why the sudden interest?" asked Luke with a hint of a smile in his eyes.
Luca explained, "I talked with him in the office. It was my first time meeting him in person, yet he seemed familiar. But I’m pretty
sure that I haven't met him before..."
She wanted to know where this familiarity came from.
Luke took a sip of the coffee. Its rich aroma blended with the sweetness of the fruit in his mouth. He was not a fan of sweets.
That was why he preferred the fruity fragrance. When he heard Luca's question,
he put down his cup of coffee and said, "Bea, you're telling me that you feel a sense of familiarity with
another guy. Aren't you afraid I'll get jealous?
Luca, sitting on the carpet with a cushion behind her back, replied, "Well, you don't seem jealous."
"Yes, because I know you're not interested in him. You just feel a bit familiar, right? That's normal," said Luke.
"Normal? Why would you say that?" Luca was curious. Luke was the one who brought Evan in. He must know something.
Luca recalled the past. She could vaguely recall something did happen, but she still did not know who Evan was.
"He has a younger sister named Shireen Turner," reminded Luke.
Shireen Turner?
Luca could not remember who it was yet, but suddenly, an image of a beautiful face appeared in her mind.
"Is he her brother?" Luca was surprised. She tried recalling and found Shireen's appearance in her memory.
At that time, she had just finished a master's degree, freshly out of campus, with a youthful and lovely face, a bit naive.
While Evan...
He was more mature, but now that she thought about it, the two siblings still have some resemblance.
No wonder she found him familiar.

If she had interacted with Shireen after she came back, she probably would have made the connection.
However, Luca had not had any contact with Shireen since she returned. Therefore, she only felt familiar without any other
feelings.
"Yes, but they have different mothers," said Luke, "Shireen's mother is not Evan's father's legal wife."
Luca understood. It was another complicated family relationship.
However, she also knew that the Turner family probably was not a prominent one, otherwise, Evan would not be working for
Luke.
"So, what's the relationship between the two siblings?" Luca pondered for a moment and asked, "Are they close?"
"Not really at first, but now their relationship has improved quite a bit. But Evan used to have some reservations about Shireen,"
explained Luke. He made sure to investigate those with unclear backgrounds thoroughly.
He dared not risk putting people with unclear backgrounds into Watson.
With Luca there, he was cautious about assigning anyone who might be intentionally planted by Abel, as it could jeopardize
Luca's safety.
"I see. I remember Shireen mentioning that she graduated, and despite being such a talented fresh graduate, she couldn't find a
job. Could that also be Evan's doing?" asked Luca.
She used to be curious about it but did not delve into it deeply. After all, Shireen was a rare talent.
