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

Wanda carried the tea upstairs and saw that the two old masters were in fact sitting in the second-floor living room

playing chess.

“Dad, Old Master Crawford, have some tea first. The refreshments will only be done later." Wanda did not mention

the incident with Jean and Marie.

However, Old Man Rayne had heard about it from the maid. He waited until she put down the tea before asking,

"Has that girl left?"

"Dad, you know about it..." Wanda sighed resignedly.

"The maid was the one who helped me after I woke up from my nap. How could I not know? Hasn't it been some

time since she came here? Why is she back?" Old Man Rayne may be old and in need of affection from his family,

but he did not have even the slightest bit of affection for Marie.

He thought that Marie was gone for good. He did not expect her to come again today, which made him feel

disgusted.

In Wanda's haste to rush out, she forgot to inform the maid to not tell the old master about this. She then glanced

at Old Master Crawford.

Old Man Rayne noticed it and said, "It's fine for him to hear about it. Just tell me what's going on."

Old Master Crawford added, "Yes, yes, don't treat me as an outsider. I want to hear what's going on too."

"That child has a boyfriend and said that she brought her boyfriend over to visit you. She even said that she bought

a bunch of gifts for you," Wanda had no choice but to say as Old Master Crawford also knew about what had

happened between the Rayne family and Marie.

She felt ashamed to say it in front of him.

"She wouldn't be so kind." Old Man Rayne picked up his teacup and took a slow sip.

Old Master Crawford was shrewd enough to notice the grim look on her face and asked, "Who is that girl's

boyfriend?"

"It's Jean Langdon." Wanda did not try to hide it as she reckoned that Jean and Marie would not stop there. They

might still come over again. Fortunately, it was hard for the old master to walk, so he would not step out of the

house.

He would not be able to catch both of them red-handed and get worked up.

"Him?" Old Man Rayne was very familiar with that name. Even after all these years, he remembered all the things

Jean had done to Bianca back then because of his unrequited love.

"Didn't they break up?" said Old Man Rayne as he remembered clearly that Jean and Marie had broken up after

getting together.

"I don't know why they're together again. They even said that they wanted to visit you, but the problem has been

resolved," said Wanda. She saw Old Master Crawford open up the chessboard and helped set up the pieces.

"Jean is a troublemaker as well. I heard Luke mention that he caused trouble at a bar because of a woman and the

person he beat up was sent to the ICU. After he survived the critical period, he was moved to the general ward but

had a sudden heart attack. The doctors weren't there at the time, so Luca was the one who had to rescue the

man," said Old Master Crawford with a tone of admiration for Luca.

"Inform the management about these two and tell the security guards to not let them in." The old master just

wanted to live in peace and quiet without being disturbed by all of this.

He also wanted his granddaughter to be by his side, but the granddaughter he had in mind was certainly not Marie.

"I know," said Wanda. When Old Master Crawford was telling the story about Jean hurting people, she noticed that

he had mentioned a name. She asked out of curiosity, "Say, Old Master Crawford, are you close with Luca?"

"Yes. Speaking of which, she's also my benefactor. Luke got her to check my pulse once, and she said that there

was no big issue, just some geriatric diseases. Then, I had her stay back for dinner. After she drank a bowl of tonic,

guess what happened?" Old Master Crawford purposely stopped at a cliffhanger.

Old Man Rayne also had a good impression of Luca, so he was interested in what the other man had to say. "What

happened?"

"She noticed that there were herbs in the tonic that was not suitable for me to take, and my insomnia was caused

by consuming the herbs. My condition was made worse because of the herbs," Old Master Crawford explained after

seeing how curious Old Man Rayne was.

However, he did not mention that Susan was the one who had the cook add the herbs.

There was a saying that he stood by, 'Don't air your dirty linen in public'.

"Luca is really brilliant," praised Old Man Rayne.

"You're right, there are not many people who are as knowledgeable as her about pharmacology at such a young

age," Old Master Crawford boasted. An all-rounder like her who was also good with children was the best choice to

replace Bianca to be by Luke's side.

Although Bianca was still Luke's legitimate wife, no one knew where she was.

Old Master Crawford felt that it was a shame, but he also had a selfish desire for Luke to be happy and use that

happiness to make up for his unfortunate childhood.

Wanda listened to Old Master Crawford's compliments and was confused. It seemed that Luca was very close to the

old master.

Then, why did she look so nervous when she learned that Old Master Crawford was here?

Old Man Rayne looked at Wanda who was deep in thought and asked, "Wanda, what snacks do we have today?"

"You'll find out later. I'll go down and help out first." Wanda left them in suspense. Although Luca had volunteered to

prepare cookies for the old masters as a snack, she was unsure of how good her cooking skills were.

Therefore, she did not say anything on purpose. In case Luca did not do a good job, she could still bring out the

snacks she bought from the store to serve the two old masters.

"Alright, you go ahead." Old Man Rayne was unaware that Luca had come. He thought that she was going

downstairs to help the maid.

In the past, it would be fine to have no snacks, but Old Master Crawford was here, so snacks were a must. It would

be best if they were not store-bought because that would lack sincerity.

Wanda went downstairs and walked into the kitchen to see that Luca had already prepared the dough and was

ready to use the mold.

"Wow, you're so fast." Wanda was surprised to see that she was already molding cookies on the tray.

"Because you let the butter come to room temperature beforehand, so I was able to do it this quickly," said Luca

while her hand movements were neat and efficient.

Wanda watched her work as efficiently as a professional dessert chef. The cookies came out looking great.

Although she did not know how they would taste, they looked good enough as they were.

"What can I do?" She had originally wanted to help, but it seemed like this was Luca's home turf. Wanda just

watched from the sidelines, not knowing what to do. She was worried that if she insisted on helping, she would be

more of a hindrance instead.

"I also want to make some cupcakes for the two elderly, Aunt Rayne. Why don't you help me crack some eggs?"

said Luca.

"Alright, how many do you need?" Wanda thought that preparing more would also show their warm welcome to Old

Master Crawford, so she picked up a clean bowl.

"Six, for now. No need to separate the egg whites. Just beat it," said Luca.

"Okay." Wanda picked up the eggs, and one by one, she cracked a total of six eggs into the bowl.
