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

“Smokin' Hot Steakhouse? Alright, I'm coming down now." Luca knew Queenie was looking for her because of

Enoch, but she bit the bullet and went to meet her.

"Oh, I reserved a private room. Just mention my name to the waiter when you come in later," said Queenie.

It was different this time. Last time, Queenie was hoping Luca's colleagues would know that Luca was on a blind

date. That was why she picked a cafe without a private room.

This time, Enoch needed to talk to Luca. They needed a quieter place to have a conversation. Hence, Queenie

reserved a private room under her name.

"Alright, Mrs. Norman. Please give me a moment. I'm heading there now," replied Luca. She hung up the call, stood

up, and walked out of the office.

While she was in the elevator going downstairs, she wondered if she should make it clear to Enoch in front of

Queenie.

She knew Queenie would be able to understand her. Love and relationships could not be forced, after all.

What made Luca worried was that if Queenie knew Luca was not interested in Enoch, maybe she would arrange for

another man to go on a blind date with her immediately. It was to make sure nothing was going on between her

and Luke.

She felt helpless at the thought of this.

Luca left T Corporation and headed to Smokin' Hot Steakhouse. It was the white-collared workers' favorite Western

restaurant nearby. Hence, the place was fully booked when she reached the restaurant.

It took some time before Luca found a waiter and asked which private room Queenie was in.

Luca pushed the private room door open. Sure enough, other than Queenie, Enoch was there too.

Queenie smiled and waved to Luca. "Luca, come here and take a seat."

Luca walked into the private room helplessly. Queenie was still trying to set her up with Enoch.

Luca could see Queenie was anxious about matchmaking her and Enoch.

"Mrs. Norman." Luca walked into the private room and closed the door. After that, she sat on the chair.

Only then did she greet Enoch calmly. "Mr. Campbell."

The way Luca called Enoch was cold and hard. Queenie could easily hear the changes in Luca's tone, and she

frowned a little. She did not need to make any guesses to know that things were not going to work out between

Luca and Enoch no matter what she said today.

Luca had done her a favor by coming over here, but that did not mean she would be able to accept Enoch.

Although Queenie thought Enoch was a nice man, she could not force Luca to get together with him if Luca did not

like him.

Enoch could hear the coldness in Luca's voice, and he wondered if Luca had received his flowers.

Could it be that the greeting card had fallen out while the flowers were sent to her office?

“Mr. Campbell sounds distant. Luca, didn't we agree to call each other by our names?"

Luca felt even more frustrated. Was he truly not getting it, or was he just pretending not to understand?

After they left the cafe last time, Luca had taken the initiative to distance herself from him. She immediately went

back to addressing him as Mr. Campbell.

Luca wondered why this was happening, but she did not lose her temper out of respect for Queenie.

Enoch handed Luca the menu when he noticed that Luca refused to say anything. "Mrs. Norman, Luca, take a look

at the menu and see what you'd like to order."

Luca did not even glance at the menu. She said immediately, "I'd like to have Set A. Thank you."

Queenie could sense there was something wrong in the air, and she felt like she had done something wrong. She

started feeling sorry, and she said, "I'll have the same set as Luca."

Enoch nodded and ordered three sets of Set A meals by scanning the QR code.

Enoch put his phone down after he placed the order. He tested Luca by asking her a question, "Luca, I sent a gift to

you today. Did you receive it?"

"Do you mean the bouquet of roses?" Luca looked down without showing any signs of happiness for receiving such

a gift.

"Yes, yes. It seems like you've received it. It took me some time to choose that bouquet. I listened to the florist's

suggestions and chose that bouquet for you. There's a significant meaning behind the number of roses!" Enoch

rattled on, trying to let Luca know how much effort he had put in.

Luca remained silent.

Enoch finally realized something was wrong, so he asked, "Were the quality of the roses bad?"

"I'm not a fan of roses," Luca lied. She loved roses, but only the ones that Luke gave her.

Queenie was slightly startled. Luca did not like roses?

Was Luca not interested in the roses planted at her house? That was why she recommended Enoch to get Luca

some roses when he asked for her help.

"You don't like roses?" Enoch gave Queenie a surprised look. He was secretly blaming Queenie. If Queenie had not

recommended the roses, he would not have made the wrong decision. However, Queenie was Jack's wife, and he

dared not to say anything about it. "I'm sorry. I thought—"

"Mr. Campbell, I suppose you should know that everything works the same way. There's always going to be

something you like and something you dislike. And that includes the relationship between people.

So I think there's no need for you to waste your efforts on me. You deserve someone better." Luca could no longer

hold it back, so she spilled everything out.

Enoch was startled. He did not expect Luca to say something like that to him when Queenie was around.

He felt embarrassed, and he was even more unconvinced.

Was he not good enough? This woman, Luca, really had no idea what was good for her.

Queenie felt the temperature in the room abruptly drop. She quickly smoothed things out. “Alright, alright. No

matter what, it's nice to get to know each other. We're all friends, right?"

Enoch was unconvinced, but he still nodded and agreed with Queenie.

Luca was reluctant to do so, but she thought she had made things clear enough. Even if Enoch was still thinking of

getting together with her, he should have understood by now. He would not continue to bother her after she turned

him down so directly.

Hence, Luca nodded and agreed with her.

Queenie let out a sigh of relief when the both of them did not start a fight because of this matter.

The dishes were served at the table. Enoch was trying to please Luca unconsciously, and Queenie was watching

every move he made. She cleared her throat gently to remind him.

Enoch was startled. Embarrassed, he stopped his gestures to please Luca.

Luca quickly finished the food that she ordered. Her phone vibrated while she was looking for an excuse to leave

earlier.

It was a message from Jason. She was asked to attend an unscheduled meeting in ten minutes. She had to end her

lunch break as soon as possible and return to the office.

Luca wiped her mouth and said in a hurry, "Mrs. Norman, Mr. Campbell, I need to return to the office earlier to

attend a sudden meeting."

Queenie quickly replied to her when she heard that, "Alright. You'd better hurry."

Luca nodded. She held her phone and stood up. Then, she pushed the private door open and left.

She pondered for a moment before she walked out of the restaurant. Since she had already rejected Enoch, she

should not let him pay for lunch. Hence, she paid the bill at the cashier.

After Luca paid for the lunch, she hurried off to T Corporation.

In the private room. Queenie put down her cutleries and wiped her mouth with the napkin gracefully. Then, she

turned to look at Enoch.

After Enoch was rejected by Luca, he had been down in the dumps. He looked pitiful.

Still, love and relationships were not easy to deal with, especially if one fell in love on a blind date.

Queenie pondered for a moment. She thought it would be better to comfort him. Hence, she asked in a caring

manner, "Enoch, are you okay?"

Enoch forced a smile and replied, "I'm okay, Mrs. Norman."
