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

Luca knew Tia’s abilities were true. They were not just a bluff.

If she accepted Tia’s therapy, what if she used something like hypnosis? Luca would probably tell her everything

she knew.

She dared not to do that.

Previously, the experience of being hypnotized at the venue was still vivid. If it had not been for the noisy

environment, she probably would not have been able to wake up that quickly. If she had continued to talk, she

would have been on the verge of exposing herself!

Therefore, Luca was unwilling to take the risk.

When Tia heard that Luca was strongly opposed to the idea, her previous feelings of unwillingness to help Luca

turned into an uncomfortable sensation.

What Luca meant was that she was good at emotional management, so she did not need anyone’s help?

Tia thought in her heart, ‘Knowing the enemy will help me win every battle.’

After anyone encountered a traumatic event, they would develop post-traumatic stress disorder. It was only a

matter of time before the symptoms would start showing. As for how it was triggered, it was different for everyone.

Tia had seen the live scene of Dr. Thomason hypnotizing her. She was a hundred percent sure that Luca had post-

traumatic stress disorder. She was merely suppressing it well and it had not erupted.

Normally, people with post-traumatic stress disorder would rely on a specific someone after realizing that they had

developed a disorder. Some of them depended on their parents or spouse, while some relied on their psychologists.

It depended on who was keeping them company the most.

After they began relying on someone, they would pour their hearts out and confide in that person unconditionally.

When the time came, the person who was being relied on would be able to know everything about them.

In the past three years, Bianca’s mental condition had deteriorated. It was also because she would purposely

mislead the psychologist during the progress of her therapy that it caused her to have mood swings. She became

unruly and wilful, completely different from the Bianca she used to be.

The completely different Bianca could not get Luke to be interested in her.

Otherwise, how was it possible for her to study abroad without the slightest response from Luke?

Once the thought crossed Tia’s mind, she immediately changed her attitude of being unwilling to help Luca. Before

Luke spoke, she said enthusiastically, “Ms. Craw, did something happen to you back then?”

“No, I just witnessed a crime scene,” Luca replied frankly, acutely noticing Tia’s changes.

Was she not unwilling to grant Luke’s request before? Why did her attitude change now?

Luca looked at Luke. Then, she turned to look at Tia the next second. What the hell was this woman doing?

Tia’s actions and expressions were not those that one who heard the mention of a crime scene would show.

Instead, she nodded as if she understood. “Actually, among my patients, some of them have witnessed a crime

scene while some were the victims themselves. A few were just bystanders, but there’s no exception as they all

developed post-traumatic stress disorder. And based on the relevant data analysis, the onset of the disorder is

different for each of these people who witnessed the scene of an accident. 95 percent of them were traumatized,

which is also known as post-traumatic stress disorder in psychology. I remember that you attended a psychology

seminar before and you were invited by Dr. Thomason on stage for hypnosis treatment. From what you said when

you were being hypnotized, I could tell that you have suffered from psychological trauma.”

Luca did not say anything. She knew she had a mental illness all along.

It began ever since she got caught and was sent to the Island of Despair.

Tia saw that she was not reacting and continued, “Of course, just like how one’s body can get sick, the mind can

also suffer from various kinds of problems. The most important thing is that we can face all of these. It just so

happens that I think I can help you.”

Luca was not moved by her words even after listening to Tia, even if Tia kept on telling her that she would help her.

Tia was in love with Luke, and Luca happened to be involved in a scandal with Luke, so Tia would never help her

sincerely.

Even if Luca was breaking down and needed someone’s help, she did not need Tia’s help right at this moment.

It was because her instinct was telling her that Tia was up to no good.

Luca shook her head. “My affairs are just minor things. There’s no need to trouble you and waste your time. If the

day comes, I’ll pay a visit.”

Tia’s smile faded away. Luca rejected her.

Very few people would turn her down…

Tia was unconvinced. She looked at Luke, saying, “Mr. Crawford, if she’s unwilling, I can’t do anything either.”

Luke watched with a cold expression as they talked to each other. Tia must have had something in mind when she

changed her mind about helping Luca.

Luca had always been unwilling to do things.

The reason for her unwillingness must be intriguing…

“I invited both of you here today. The most important thing is to let the both of you get to know each other,” said

Luke.

Tia understood what he meant, so she continued what he was going to say. “I know what Mr. Crawford is saying.

How about this, Ms. Craw? We can add each other on Instagram. It’s not for the treatment. Let’s just be friends. We

can share interesting stories when we’re free, or maybe our thoughts. There’s no harm.”

Luca knew that even if she rejected Tia’s help, she would not be able to run away from her request to be friends.

Even if it was not in front of Luke, one could not be so impolite in the adult world.

Luca could only agree to add Tia as a friend on Instagram. After both of them had approved the friend request,

Luca stood up and said, “Mr. Crawford, thank you for your concern. Since there are no other matters, I’m going

downstairs to work.”

“Sure.” Luke did not make her stay this time.

Luca smiled at both of them. Her smile did not reach her eyes. She turned around and walked out.

There was so much bitterness in her heart.

Luke looked like he cared about her on the outside, but in fact, he was testing her through Tia.

He was suspecting if she had anything to do with the Island of Despair, and that was why he was sounding her out

this way.

When he was suspecting her, he needed someone to help him with his investigation. He chose Tia without

hesitation.

The fact that he did it without hesitation was a sign of trust. Luca had this sour feeling in her heart because of the

trust he had for Tia.

She wanted to be trusted by Luke too…

After Luca left the office, she smiled bitterly. What was she thinking about? Who she was right now? She did not

deserve to be trusted by anyone.

It was nice that Luke was living life optimistically. At least, he would not worry about where she was.

He still had a long life ahead of him. Finding another woman and spending the rest of his life with her was indeed a

good choice.

Luca could only think about it this way.

Jason was sitting in the office. After he saw Luca leave, he followed Luke’s order that was given earlier and stood up

to walk to Luke’s office.

While in the office, Tia still wanted to keep talking to Luke but she was interrupted by Jason knocking on the door.

“Mr. Crawford, the meeting will start in five minutes.”
