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

Pierre looked at him speak confidently and fell silent for a while.

Abel gestured toward Haller. “Hand it over."

Haller took out a phone and a card from his pocket, placing them in Abel's hand.

Abel tossed the things in his hand onto the coffee table and stood up. "This is how you'll contact me. After you've

given it some thought, just dial this number on this phone and you'll be able to reach me."

After finishing, he left with Haller.

The door of the suite opened and closed again. Pierre slowly shifted his gaze toward the door. If he had insisted on

getting the money back today, his brain would have been blown out by now.

He slowly picked up the phone and card on the coffee table.

The number printed on the card did not resemble a phone number. Pierre counted the numbers, there were a total

of 22 digits. They said it was a number, but they might as well call it a scrambled code.

He turned on the phone. This ordinary phone model was available on the market, but there was nothing else on the

screen except for the interface to dial numbers.

Not even the basic phone settings were seen.

Pierre could confirm that though this phone might look ordinary, it was actually far from it.

He put the phone aside.

He had not made up his mind on whether to contact Abel for help as he had already spent a lump sum of money.

Although he never expected the bidding document to get him the project, seeing the project fall into Luke's hands

filled him with jealousy.

Pierre kept the phone and card in the drawer. He wanted to deal with Luke, but he still had to give it some

consideration.

After all, Abel had provided him with useful information. Luke had connections here too.

He wanted to investigate further.

The phone he set aside rang, and he picked it up impatiently. It was Mr. Peralta.

He answered irritatedly, "What is it?"

On the other end of the phone, Mr. Peralta asked nonchalantly, "Boss, when are we returning?"

"What's the rush?" Pierre asked coldly. He would not leave until he had decided whether to deal with Luke.

Mr. Peralta could sense from Abel's tone of voice that he was in a bad mood. He held his breath and bit the bullet as

he reported, “Boss, there are some matters back at the company that you need to take care of personally..."

He did not want to disturb Pierre, but after Percy called, it not only put pressure on him but the company as well.

If Pierre refused to return, things would not turn out great.

"I still have some things to deal with here. You head back first." Pierre impatiently drove him away.

There was no point in keeping Mr. Peralta by his side. Firstly, he could not help him negotiate. Secondly, he could

not protect him. He should not have brought him here in the first place. If he had brought two bodyguards instead,

perhaps he would not have had to suffer Abel's threats.

"But the company—"

Pierre impatiently cut him off, "Who's the boss here?"

Mr. Peralta sighed internally. Working was hard, but even more so when working for Pierre. "You are.." Mr. Peralta

said embarrassedly.

"Yet you're questioning my decision?" Pierre's words were aggressive and unreasonable.

Mr. Peralta braced himself and said, "I would never. In that case, I'll return first. Let me know when you want to go

back, Boss. I'll book a flight for you."

Pierre hung up the phone without giving him a reply.

Mr. Peralta sulked in his hotel room. Their bidding document did not even get chosen. He had no idea why Pierre

wanted to stay.

To throw a celebration for Luke?

They were already considered lucky that Luke did not cause them any trouble.

After recalling what Percy said, Mr. Peralta hurriedly gave him a reply, "Mr. Mallory, Boss said he wishes to stay in

Russia for the time being. He refuses to go back."

Percy replied in an instant, "What is he staying in Russia for?"

After hearing his question, Mr. Peralta wondered the same thing. Percy had a point. There was nothing in Russia for

Pierre to do. He could only answer, "I'm not sure about that either. This is the boss's own decision."

"Then don't come back for the time being too. Keep an eye on him and see what else he's up to," replied Percy.

Mr. Peralta's face immediately fell.

He had just been chased away by Pierre, but Percy wanted him to stay here. Should he leave or not?

If he stayed, Pierre would definitely find it suspicious.

"Got it," he answered Percy after weighing his options.

He did not work for Percy, but that seemed like the only option right now.

Percy had already brought the bidding document matter out into the open. He also said that if Mr. Peralta refused

to help him, Luke would hold him accountable.

Mr. Peralta did not want to throw half of his life away because of the bidding document, so he could only agree.

The following day.

Luke brought Luca and Jason with him to the hotel lobby to welcome Mr. Zac and the employees of T Corporation's

legal department.

Since they were told to come to Russia on such short notice, everyone could not hide the exhaustion on their faces.

After Jason asked for their documents and assigned each one of them a guest room, everyone gathered at Luke's

suite to begin preparations for the pre-contract meeting.

The suite was very spacious, so there was enough room for everyone to sit on the couch.

Luca was also among them.

Luke sat in his wheelchair and looked at Luca as he opened his laptop. He said, “Dr. Craw, there's no work for you at

the moment. Go back and rest up first."

Luca was stunned. Did she really have to rest?

"I can work, Mr. Crawford." She insisted as she could not imagine the consequences if she returned to her room in

front of so many people.

Jason had long known that she and Luke stayed together, so she admitted that they were staying in the same suite.

After all, Jason would not misunderstand her relationship with Luke.

Even if there was a misunderstanding, he would not speak about it carelessly.

However, she could not say the same for the others.

There were five other T Corporation employees there excluding Jason, and they all thought that this was Luke's

suite. If she walked into another room in front of them, there was no need to wait until tomorrow for rumors to

spread in the company.

She was staying with Luke.

Therefore, Luca did not want to stir up any unnecessary trouble.

"You're not needed for the time being. You can come out when we need a translator." Luke insisted. He thought that

she needed more rest as she was sick.

Moreover, she was stubbornly distancing herself from him, which upset him. Thus, he wanted to take this

opportunity to teach her a lesson.

He would let everyone in the company know that they did not have a typical relationship.

His words were as straightforward as they could be, but Luca still sat on the couch with no intention of budging.

At this moment, Jason assisted by saying, "He's right, Dr. Craw. Your injuries have not recovered. You should go back

to your room and rest."

Just as he finished speaking, all eyes were on Luca.
