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

Chapter 1150 All Over the Papers

Luke took the newspaper. Before he read the article, he saw the photo in which Luca stepped into his car.

He frowned but soon composed himself.

"You don't have to worry about it. I've already gotten someone to handle this," Old Master Crawford said.

"Let me handle this, Grandfather." Luke did not want to trouble Old Master Crawford.

"No. I've already sent someone to hunt the reporter down." Old Master Crawford stroked his beard. Other than

what happened to Bianca two years ago, the Crawford family had been relatively peaceful for the past two years.

Now, someone was challenging their authority once more.

The butler came into the dining hall and reported to them, "Old Master Crawford, Sir, we have found that the five

major media outlets in A City are increasing their circulation to report on this issue. Also, online versions of the

article have been read at least three million times."

The news was only published an hour ago, but it had already received three million views. Clearly, many people

were paying attention to it.

Old Master Crawford's expression darkened. He wished that good news would receive so much attention too.

Luke sipped his coffee calmly and waited for his grandfather's arrangements.

"Go and pressure those websites to take the article down," Old Master Crawford said.

There were too many websites sharing the article. If they could halt the spread on the major news websites, they

would be able to cut the exposure by half. As for the smaller websites, they would be caught up in some other

scandal in a few days.

Luke took a bite of his toast and stood up. "Are there many reporters outside?" He asked the butler.

"After the article was published, many reporters from the major media outlets have camped outside the front

gate," the butler said worriedly.

"Get the bodyguards to drive them away, and get Mr. Zander to bring the children to school," Luke said.

"Yes." Hearing that Luke was about to leave the house, he went to make arrangements.

After the bodyguards drove the reporters away, Luke left in his car, and the driver brought the children to school.

Luke did not go to T Corporation but instead went to Watson Biopharmaceuticals. An important meeting was

scheduled there today. He had planned to attend the meeting via teleconferencing, but he changed his mind after

reading the article.

He wondered if Luca was affected by the news.

The article did not specifically mention Luca's identity, and the photo only showed her side profile, but he expected

that the media outlets would be able to pinpoint Luca's identity anytime soon.

Luke stopped his car at an intersection. He rubbed his chin as he stared at the traffic lights. Perhaps he should warn

Luca about it.

Meanwhile, Amur had already prepared breakfast by the time Luca woke up.

"Wow, that's a lot of food!" She exclaimed after she had dressed up in office wear and came out of her bedroom.

"It's just the two of us, Amur. We won't be able to finish everything." "It's fine. I'll store the leftovers in the fridge."

Amur grinned. If Luca had not told him, he would not have realized that he had bought too much food.

Luca shrugged. She quickly wolfed down a slice of bread and a glass of milk before preparing to leave the house.

Amur said, "Um... Mr. Crawford is in the news today." "Luke Crawford?" Luca stopped wiping her mouth. She took

out her phone and opened the browser.

She was dumbfounded when she saw the photo in the article.

"The woman in the photo seems familiar..." Amur commented.

He lifted his head and looked at Luca. Their side profiles looked very similar.

"That's me..." Luca did not expect that a reporter would take her photo. Worse yet, the reporter had made up a

scandalous story based on the photo alone.

She sighed and realized that she had been careless.

The photo did not show any intimacy between the two subjects, but one of the subjects happened to be Luke

Crawford, and that had given the photo incredible gossip value.

"Luca, are you still going to work today?" Amur breathed a sigh of relief after reading the article. The article did not

include any personal information on Luca.

"Yes." Luca remembered that Rhett had told her that the meeting today was very important. If she wanted to

receive grants for the two research projects on hand, she would have to attend the meeting.

"But..." Amur was worried that someone might recognize her.

"It's fine," Luca shook her head and said. She removed the hair band that kept her hair together, then picked out a

baseball cap from the closet.

The outfit was quite mismatched, but that would differentiate her from the woman in the photo.

"This should do it." "I hope so." Amur smiled and sent her off.

Luca took a cab to Watson Biopharmaceuticals.

As she walked past the lobby, she overheard several employees talking about the news.

Luke had not been involved in a relationship scandal for a long time. Everyone was surprised to see him in the

limelight again.

Luca lowered the brim of her cap.

When Talia noticed her, she went up to talk to her. "Dr. Craw, have you read the news today?" "I'm not interested in

reading the news," Luca said as she walked toward the elevator.

Talia nodded and continued, "There's an announcement in the HR department today. Some researchers in the

Technical Department are looking for assistants. I'd like to try."

Luca pressed a button and said, "You should try." "The researchers will be making the final decision. I'm still

inexperienced, so I don't think the researchers would want to recruit me." Talia seemed frustrated. No one would

want to recruit an intern as their research assistant.

"You don't know if you don't try." The elevator doors slowly opened, and Luca stepped inside.

Talia's eyes sparkled. She misunderstood what Luca was telling her. "Do you mean that there's a chance I can make

it?" "You'll have to work hard for it." Luca's mind was occupied by the news. She did not pay attention to what Talia

was saying.

"This is great! I'll work hard for it. Thank you, Dr. Craw!" Talia was overjoyed. She thought that her success was a

foregone conclusion.

"I didn't do anything. You don't have to thank me," Luca said.

Talia did not think so. She thought that Luca was being modest.

When Talia arrived at her floor, she bowed at Luca and walked out of the elevator.

Luca was alone in the elevator. She frowned when she saw her reflection on the metal walls. Her outfit was very

jarring.

She removed the cap and tied her hair with a rubber band.

Luca exited the elevator at the Technical Department. She met Mo on her way out.

"Dr. Craw, Mr. Crawford will arrive at the company in twenty minutes. Please be at the conference room five

minutes before the meeting."

Luca stopped walking and looked at her in shock. As far as she knew, Luke would only be attending the meeting via

teleconferencing. Why did he change his mind?

"You mean Mr. Crawford is coming to chair the meeting personally?"
