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

"No." Luke promised he would take this project.

He had to win the construction bid.

T Corporation had worked on many projects before. They also had been working on a few projects that required a

high greening rate.

"How's the project of T Corporation and M Group going?" Jack asked with concern.

"Everything's going smoothly," replied Luke.

"Okay. That's great. Other than the contents of the bidding document, they'll be focusing on another requirement

for the bid this time—the completion status and quality of the previous projects of the company. The cooperation

between T Corporation and M Group has attracted a lot of attention now. You have to make sure everything's going

well. No mistakes are allowed. Otherwise, your chance of winning the bid will be gone," Jack revealed the

requirements of the bid and reminded Luke.

After all, everything was going well for T Corporation now. It was lonely at the top. Luke had to be extra careful.

If anything happened, he would lose to his competitors.

"Okay. Thank you, Dad." Luke nodded. Jack could only reveal inside information, while Luke would still have to

depend on himself to win the bid.

Jack finished drinking the cup of tea and said, "I've already bought an apartment in Sunnydale Garden for Leia near

the hospital. She'll be able to get discharged from the hospital after New Year. She'll move there right away."

"Is she willing to?" Luke raised his brows. Leia's character was like Allison's. She would refuse to be separated just

like that.

A gloomy cloud shadowed Jack's eyes. His voice turned cold when he mentioned Leia's name. "She has to stay

there no matter whether she's willing to do so or not. I've already told her that I'll send her back to New York if she

refuses to stay at the apartment there. Her health is stable now. She might be able to get better treatment in New

York."

Luke did not say anything.

Leia was not dumb either. Her life would be more miserable if she insisted on doing it her way and ended up being

sent to New York.

She only came back because life was tough on her.

"She has no other choice," said Jack. The whole family became restless when she got sick.

The news of what Leia said to Dexter and what she did to him was still all over the internet now.

Jack might have been able to help her to clean up the mess back then, but he had lost confidence in this daughter

of his. That was why he did not handle the mess she had caused this time and let it be.

Now that the rumors had become worse, she only had herself to blame for it.

Fortunately, the discussion online did not affect him. That was why Jack let the fallout continue over Leia's matter

online.

Luke nodded, agreeing with him. He reminded Jack too, “Leia has never been an easy person to deal with."

"I know your men are keeping an eye on her," said Jack. He also knew that it was Luke's men who were leading the

discussion on the internet.

Leia's reputation was ruined, but nothing happened to Jack.

There was a saying that it was the father's fault for not educating his children, but the public did not think so.

Hence, there must be someone who was helping behind.

There were so many pairs of eyes watching Jack like a predator looking at its prey. After all, it was lonely to be

sitting in such a high position.

Jack was not allowed to make any mistakes, and he had to serve his people wholeheartedly.

Not only did Jack have to serve the people, but his whole family carried that weight on their shoulders too.

Therefore, if no one was there to steer public opinion, Jack would end up losing everything.

"Dad," Luke called him without saying anything else.

He was the one behind it, but he did not think that Jack would find out about it.

Jack had come so far from being a military soldier to where he was today. His capability was much stronger than

others. A child born in a military family could not be easily fooled.

"I'm relieved knowing that your men are watching her," Jack claimed that he would not blame Luke for doing this.

Luke loved Luca, and Luca was Jack's biological daughter.

Luke would never break Luca's heart.

That was why Jack was calm.

Then, the two of them talked about politics and businesses.

After a while, someone knocked on the door. Tommy's voice came from outside the door, "Daddy, Grandpa, are you

in there?"

Luke stood up and went to open the door. "What's the matter?"

"Grandma asked me to tell you that lunch is ready," Tommy told him what Queenie said to him.

"That was fast." Jack rose to his feet and glanced at the clock on the wall, only to realize that they had been talking

for more than an hour.

"Grandpa, you always lose track of time when you talk to Daddy." Tommy grinned.

"I always have a lot to talk with your Daddy." Jack walked toward him and held his grandson's hand. Tommy was

right. He would always lose track of time whenever he talked to Luke.

Luke was knowledgeable. He did not stop reading and learning about the latest news despite his busy schedule. It

was interesting to talk to him, and he would not feel bored.

Sometimes, Jack thought that if his subordinates who only knew how to butter him up were as knowledgeable as

Luke was, his job would not be so boring either.

Most of the people around him did not know as much as Luke, and they were not the kind who would take the long

view. However, they were always discussing problems with him.

They were ignorant.

Jack admired Luke as he was a prominent and outstanding man.

Luke did not continue to stay there after lunch. After all, Jack and Queenie had to visit Old Master Norman in the

afternoon.

Hence, Luke and the kids left and headed to the Rayne family's house right away.

Luke's phone rang when he was driving. He glanced at his phone and found out that it was Allison who called.

He did not answer the call.

Rainie asked with curiosity, “Daddy, aren't you answering the call?"

“Don't mind it." Luke was not planning to answer Allison's call. She never had anything important to look for him.

The phone finally quieted down after it had rung a dozen times.

The phone rang again after a few seconds.

Lanie slowly said, “Daddy, answer the call. Otherwise, Grandma will keep calling you."

Luke glanced at his son by looking in the rearview mirror, then he asked, “How did you know it was her?"

“The only person who would be calling at this hour and whom you'd refuse to take the call is Grandma." Lanie

crossed his arms in front of his chest and sat on his seat.

Luke nodded, agreeing with what his son said. Allison was the only one who could be so annoying.

Then, Luke answered the call.

“What's the matter?" Luke's voice was cold even though it was his mother on the other end of the line.

Allison's voice came from the other end of the line, “Luke, what time will you be coming over to eat today?"

“I've never said that I was going over for a meal," replied Luke.

“Isn't today the second day of the New Year? Aren't you coming over to eat with me?" Allison sounded surprised.

“I'm busy, and I'm driving now. I'm hanging up if you have nothing else to say." Luke only thought of hanging up the

call. Allison was trying to please him, but that did not make him like her more.

He felt frustrated instead.

“Hang on. It's the New Year. How can you be busy? Besides, it's the second day of the New Year. What are you busy

with? I've already asked the maid to make your favorite dishes. Come over and let's eat together." Allison pestered

him, insisting on seeing him.
