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

Chapter 1224 She Could Not Refuse Because Luke Would Be Angry

Amur woke up in the evening. Seeing that it was almost time, he opened the door to make some preparations for

his mission.

After he left his bedroom, he was surprised to see Luca sitting on the couch. "Why aren't you at work?" "I was

drugged, so I needed the rest. I took the day off." Luca saw that Amur was dressed in black. "Are you going on your

mission?"

Black was the best color to hide something, such as oneself in the dark of the night, or the wounds on one's body...

"Mm.” Amur nodded.

Luca stood up and removed her jacket. She was also dressed in black.

"Are you...” Amur seemed to have realized something.

"I told you that I'm coming along with you on the mission. You're already injured once, Amur. I can't let you get

injured again. As long as you're in A City, I'll take care of you on Eler's behalf." 'Is it just because of Eler?' There was

a hint of disappointment in Amur's eyes.

He did not want Luca to risk her life with him, but she insisted on going, and he could not refuse. Even if he did,

Luca would still find some way to tail him.

"It'll be very dangerous." Amur's voice was slightly hoarse.

"I know, and that's why I want to go along with you. Don't worry, with me around, your mission will be easier." Luca

wore a black backpack. She looked as though she was going to the gym.

The assassins on the Island of Despair had various specialties other than physical training. Luca's specialty was in

medicine and pharmaceuticals, while Amur's specialty was networking and hacking.

"Alright." Amur nodded and left the apartment with her.

When they went into the elevator, Luca rubbed her stomach. ' How about getting some dinner first?"

The two of them had been sleeping for the entire day, and they had not eaten anything.

"Okay. What do you want to eat?" Amur replied.

"How about burgers?" Luca suggested.

"Whatever you want,” Amur said. The elevator arrived on the first floor, and they stepped out.

There was a burger joint right outside the neighborhood. When they were at the exit, Bianca was surprised to see a

luxury car parked outside. It was the same car that had brought her to the party yesterday.

'That's Luke's car...'

Amur did not know whose car that was, but he could guess it, judging from Luca's expression.

She stood frozen on the spot. A while later, she saw Luke getting out of the car.

"Wait for me at the burger joint, Amur," Luca said.

"You..." Amur was reluctant to leave. In fact, he was thinking of standing in front of Luca so that Luke could not get

close to her.

"Just go. I'll be fine." Luca flashed a genuine smile.

Amur nodded. His blue eyes lingered on Luke for a while before walking toward the burger joint.

While Luke walked over, he noticed that the two people were dressed in black, as though they were a couple.

Luca seemed active and nimble in those black clothes, and she looked very different from her modest attire when

she was at work or her elegant party wear last night. He said, "Are you going somewhere?" "I've already taken the

day off, and it's already past office hours anyway. Are you so interested in my personal life?" Luca retorted.

Luke was not pleased with Luca's tone, but he had nowhere to release his anger.

"He doesn't look like your younger brother," Luke said.

"But he is my younger brother," Luca emphasized. There was no need for her to explain her relationship with Amur,

but she did not want Luke to misunderstand.

"How are you feeling now?" Luke continued, shifting the conversation topic.

Luca narrowed her gaze and smiled calmly. "I'm feeling a lot better now.

Thank you for your concern, Mr. Crawford."

It seemed like a normal conversation, but the tone and the words they used were very awkward.

"I've already settled that thing." Luke continued.

The conversation should have ended earlier. Luke should have already gotten into his car and left, while Luca

should be continuing her way to the burger joint.

"Thank you, Mr. Crawford." Luca understood what Luke was saying even though he was being ambiguous.

That was the tacit understanding they had with each other after years of being together.

"Mr. and Mrs. Norman want to invite you to their house for dinner as a sign of thanks," Luke said. Earlier, he had

given a call to Mr. and Mrs. Norman and told them about Luca's identity. They were very grateful and wanted to

meet her.

"Not today." She wanted to meet her parents very much and check on Queenie’s condition, but she had a mission.

"Tomorrow," Luke said.

"Okay." Luca knew that she could not refuse in case Luke got angry.

After that, she decided to break off from the awkward conversation. "Am I free to go for dinner now, Mr.

Crawford?" "What do you want to eat?" Luke asked.

Luca held the straps of her backpack and said, "I'll be having dinner with my younger brother, Mr. Crawford. Also,

your car is causing quite a disturbance. Bye."

The drivers of other cars were wary of accidentally bumping into Luke's luxury car, so they tried to stay some

distance away, which made the already narrow entrance to the neighborhood even narrower.

Luke watched her leave coolly, as though their intimacy the night before meant nothing at all to her.

He stood there pensively for a while. Eventually, he turned around and went back into his car.

When Luca stepped into the burger joint, Amur grinned at her. "Is he gone?" "He's gone." Luca seemed composed.

She poured a glass of water for herself and ordered a double cheeseburger.

"Right away," the cashier said.

"Why did he look for you?" Amur asked.

Luca skipped most of the conversation and told him that the Normans wanted to meet her.

"Will you go?" Amur asked.

"I'd like to check on her condition again so that I can treat her," Luca said. The concoction she had given Queenie

was prepared based on Queenie’s condition back then, and Queenie’s health must have improved since then. Luca

would have to make frequent diagnoses if she wanted Queenie to be cured fast.

She had planned to mail packages with reduced dosages in the future, but now that they knew who she was, she

did not have to hide her identity anymore. She could take Queenie’s pulse and prescribe appropriate concoctions.

Amur looked at her and said nothing.

He could not stop her from meeting Luke or Queenie. They were her husband and birth mother respectively.
