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

Chapter 1217 He Did Not Appreciate the Opportunity

Luca did not expect the matter to blow up when she decided to mail the package to Queenie.

She had expected the Normans to keep the matter under wraps, even if Queenie had to go to the hospital for a

checkup. Naturally, she had forgotten about Luke's involvement.

Luke's status meant that his mere presence would cause drama. Luca knew that all the reporters would want to pin

a camera on him if they could.

His frequent appearances in the hospital gained attention. When Queenie's report was released, the media outlets

reported on it.

The reporters continued to find information about her toxicology test and the reasons behind her poisoning.

Naturally, they also found out about the antidote in the mysterious package.

The development of the matter had exceeded Luca's expectations, and she was not sure how to deal with it.

Luke turned around and looked coldly at her.

Luca lowered her head and did not meet his gaze.

Luke opened the door and left.

The moment the door closed, Luca fell on the bed and gasped for air.

Even though she had taken the antidote, the effects of the drug were very taxing to the body. She was completely

spent after confronting Luke for that long, and she would have collapsed out of exhaustion if the confrontation

continued.

She continued to lie on the bed, even though her hair was still wet. She had to sleep now to regain her energy.

Meanwhile, Abel received a voice message from the deputy president, saying that Luke had already left the hotel

room without anyone following him.

"Too bad he doesn't appreciate the chance I've given him." Abel chuckled.

He had expected Luke to stay the night.

The impostor Bianca had told him that Luke had never touched her in bed after all these years. In fact, they had

never even slept in the same bed.

Perhaps Luke was smart enough to guess that Bianca was an impostor, or maybe he might have sensed the

differences between the real and the impostor Biancas.

Now that Abel had arranged for the real Bianca to be in the same room as him, he did not appreciate the

opportunity.

Hera was leaning onto Abel's chest. She heard the message too. Realizing that Luke was not in the room for too

long, she wondered if Luke had any carnal relations with the woman in the room.

"Mr. Abel, do you think that Luke took the bait?" She asked curiously.

"Who knows?" Abel smiled lazily and lit a cigar. "I don't suppose Luke could have kept it to himself. Don't you think

so?"

He knew that once the drug took effect, no woman would be able to remain rational. Luca would not have been

able to resist it, no matter how much she wanted to stay away from Luke.

Abel hugged Hera tightly and exhaled a smoke ring. His plan might have been perfect, but he did not expect that

Luca had brought the antidote with her.

She managed to cure herself with the antidote, and Luke had managed to resist her charms.

In Crawford Manor, after Bianca ended the call with Luke, she took out a metal box from the bottom drawer of the

dresser. There was an intricate lock on it.

She unlocked the box and took out a pill.

The pill was given to her by someone from the island. They told her that she could take the pill as a last resort if she

did not manage to win Luke's affection.

The pill would cause her to develop the symptoms of the flu, and there was no cure for it.

Eventually, she would look like she had gotten pneumonia, but she would not die from it.

It would take her body a month to fully recover from the symptoms. In the month after that, her body would remain

weak.

The effects of the pill were very taxing to the body. That was why the pill had to be taken as a last resort.

Bianca stared at the pill for some time. She would take the pill because of Luke.

Half an hour ago, she had received a message. Attached to the message was a photo of Luke leaving the party

while carrying Luca in his arms.

She checked the timestamp. The photo was taken an hour ago.

Bianca could not remain calm, and that was why she had given Luke a call.

Luke did not answer the first time.

She began to panic. Luke had never missed her calls!

She called him again. Fortunately, Luke answered this time, and he sounded relatively normal.

At that time, Bianca was worried that Luke was making out with Luca, and she had called him without thinking of an

excuse to do so. She did not want Luke to think that she was being troublesome, so she made up an excuse that

she was feeling under the weather.

She was used to pretending to be sick anyway. Whenever Dr. Cairn prescribed medicine for her, she would take it

and recover quickly.

Bianca felt that things were different this time. If she did not pretend to be seriously ill, she thought that Luke would

continue to ignore her.

She guessed that Dr. Cairn would arrive at Crawford Manor in another ten minutes, so she did not waste any more

time and swallowed the pill.

There was no water in the room, and it would be quite suspicious if she left the room now. She had to swallow the

pill dry.

After that, she lay on the bed.

Ten minutes later, the butler brought Dr. Cairn to the bedroom and knocked on the door. "Come in," Bianca said

weakly.

The pill took effect very quickly. Bianca could feel her body heating up already.

The butler pushed the door open and told Dr. Cairn, "Please enter, Dr. Cairn.

If

Dr. Cairn nodded and looked unhappily at the woman on the bed.

He was enjoying his night, but Luke had called him over because she was feeling unwell.

Usually, he did not mind being called over to Crawford Manor. He knew that Bianca was pretending to be sick, and it

was good money.

Things were different tonight. He had spent a lot of money and pulled some strings to hire the new escort in the

nightclub. Just when things were about to warm up, Luke had given him a call.

He was not going to refuse Luke's request, especially not when he was being paid for the visit, but he felt quite

aggrieved about it.

With no other choice, he could only tell the escort to wait for him at the motel while he rushed over to Crawford

Manor.

"How are you feeling now, Madam?" Dr. Cairn asked with a smile. He could not show her that he was unhappy.

"I feel dizzy, and my body feels warm, as though I'm sitting on an oven," Bianca said weakly.

Dr. Cairn took out the digital thermometer and placed it in her ear. The temperature read 99.5 degrees.

"You have a slight fever. Did you forget to sleep with a blanket?" He asked.

Usually, when Bianca pretended to be sick, her body temperature was normal. She was slightly feverish now, but

that might have been deliberate too.
