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

Chapter 1343 She Wanted to Run Away

Luca lifted her head, and the two pairs of eyes met, which caused her to shudder involuntarily.

Sue took out a bottle of red wine from the cabinet. She smiled and said, "I'm in the mood today. Shall we all have a

drink? I know it's weird to pair red wine with fish, but we're all friends here, and we don't really mind that, do we?"

Luca's alcohol capacity was quite high now, and she did not have to drive herself home later, so she had no

problems with drinking during dinner. She nodded and said, "Alright."

Luke did not voice his opinion.

Jason said, "Let's not, Sue. Ms. Crawford drove here. If he drank wine, how is he going to drive home later?"

"If he can't drive home, he can spend the night here," Sue said matter-of-factly. "Mr. Crawford, if you don't want to

spend the night here, I'll get some freshly-squeezed orange juice for you. That's what the children are drinking too."

Luke glanced at the bottle of red wine in her hands. He knew that Jason had bought some bottles while on a

business trip in France a few years ago, and Jason had planned to save them for a special occasion.

"Red wine is fine." Luke made his decision. He did not want to be drinking orange juice together with the children.

Sue nodded and asked the caretaker to bring four wine glasses. "That's more like it. It's a special occasion today,

and we ought to drink some wine to celebrate it. If you can't drive, I'll get a cab for you."

Jason massaged his temples when he heard what Sue said.

The caretaker brought four wine glasses to the table. Sue uncorked the wine and poured it into the glasses. "We

don't have time to decant the wine, so let's just drink it straight from the bottle. This wine has a great texture, and

it's quite good even if you don't decant it."

"Thank you," Luca said with a smile as she took the wine glass from Sue's hand.

"Don't be a stranger, Dr. Craw," Sue said magnanimously." Right, calling you 'Dr. Craw' sounds too formal. Is it okay

if I call you by your name?"

Luca nodded and said, "Of course."

"Luca sounds better anyway," Sue said while pouring the wine into Luke's glass. "Have a taste, Mr. Crawford. Jason

bought the wine while he was on a business trip to France, and I heard that you bought a case too. Have you

finished it? tv

Jason shook his head again. Sue had not touched a drop of alcohol yet, but she spoke as though she were already

drunk. 'Doesn't she know who she’s speaking to?' He thought.

"Not yet." Luke took the glass and shook it gently.

Sue said, "Fine wine is meant for drinking. You should drink yours soon. It might taste richer the longer you store it,

but it won't taste as unique."

Jason stood up and took the bottle from Sue's hands. "Let me do it."

Sue did not try to snatch the bottle back from Jason. She sat down, smiled, and looked at Luca as Luca took a sip of

wine. "What do you think of the wine, Luca?" She asked.

"I don't drink wine often, but I like the taste and texture. This should be suitable for women," Luca said after rolling

the wine in her mouth for a while.

"That's right, Dr. Craw. This wine is suitable for women." Jason poured a glass of wine for Sue, then poured himself

a glass.

Luke turned his gaze toward Luca and said, "I didn't expect that you know quite a bit about wine, Dr. Craw."

"My parents like to drink wine," Luca said and took another sip.

Luke raised his eyebrows. "I thought that Russians like to drink vodka. What about you, Dr. Craw?"

"As long as it's good quality," Luca said with a smile.

Kari gently tugged Sue's shirt sleeve, then stared at Sue with her big, round eyes as though she wanted to tell her

something. Sue immediately understood, and she began to distribute the food to the people around the table. "Mr.

Crawford, Luca, you can save the wine for after you've tasted my cooking. Here, have a taste of the herb-stuffed

roast fish I've made."

Luca took a bite and nodded approvingly. "The fish is fresh and tender. This is tasty."

"You don't know how glad I am to hear that. I've heard from Jason that you're an excellent cook, and I was worried

that you might not like my cooking," Sue said while putting some fish on her daughters' plates. Naturally, she did

not bother serving Luke.

Jason said, "Please eat, Mr. Crawford."

Luke picked up a piece of fish with his fork, put it in his mouth, and carefully chewed it. The fish was quite fresh, but

the taste was not very remarkable.

It could not compare to Luca's cooking.

"He's exaggerating. I'm not as skilled as he says,” Luca said humbly. As she ate, she carefully observed Luke's

actions.

Luke stopped eating after a bite. It seemed that the food was not to his tastes.

Luca knew that Crawford Manor had a skilled cook. Why did he insist on having dinner here? Did he have something

to discuss with Jason?

Luca quickly dismissed that thought. Jason was Luke's subordinate, and if Luke wanted to discuss something with

Jason, Jason should have been the one to go and look for Luke...

"You're too humble," Sue said. If even Jason praised Luca's cooking, Sue could tell that she was an excellent cook.

Suddenly, she remembered that Bianca was also a good cook until she lost her memories.

Bianca had taught her how to make the herb-stuffed roast fish. Unfortunately, Sue did not manage to get the recipe

for the herb stuffing from her before she lost her memories.

Sue thought that it was a pity.

After finishing the bottle of wine, Sue uncorked another two bottles. After the caretaker brought the twin girls to

their bedrooms, the adults sat down in the living room, drinking and chatting.

Luke was the one who drank the least.

Sue glanced at the clock and saw that it was almost eleven o'clock. She said, "You shouldn't go home today, Luca.

It's already so late, and it'll be hard for you to catch a cab."

"I don't think I should impose on you. It might be late, but I know that I can get cabs easily in this area." Luca shook

her head. She took out her phone and prepared to book a cab.

When Luke saw that, he said, "I'll send you home. It's along the way."

Luca frowned slightly when she looked at the wine glass in his hand. "You drank quite a lot of wine, Mr. Crawford. I

don't think you should drive."

"My driver is already waiting for us outside," Luke said. He knew that he was going to drink wine, so he had already

sent a message to Sean. Currently, Sean was waiting outside the mansion for the dinner to end.

Now that someone was sending Luca home, Sue did not intend to keep her there. Even though she did not like Luke,

she trusted his character.

After finishing the last of the wine, they said goodbye to each other.

Luca took her handbag and left the living room. Luke was walking next to her.

They walked out of the small mansion with only two parking lots. Luke's car was waiting for them across the road,

and they had to step out of the gate.

Jason was walking in front of them, leading the way.

Luca stole a glance at the man next to her. His well-built body should have given her a sense of safety, but at that

moment, Luca wanted nothing more than to run away.
