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

"Yes, sir.” The maid heard what the old master said with a puzzled look on her face. It was only when

he reminded her that she remembered she still had something to hand to Luke.

She handed the bag to Luke and said, “Master Luke, Old Master Crawford wants you to bring this

back.”

"What is it?" Luke took it, opened the bag, and glanced inside. It was a cardboard container that

seemed to contain seafood.

"I noticed Luca enjoyed the European lobster last night. She said the taste was delicate, and since we

had some at home, I had the maid pack some for you to take back. Let Selina cook it for you all," said

Old Master Crawford. The person he mentioned was Aunt Neile.

"Thank you, Grandpa." Luke remembered Luca did enjoy it yesterday, so he accepted it.

On the other hand, Luca felt a bit embarrassed when she heard what the old master said. While the

European lobster had a delicate taste and tender texture, it was indeed expensive.

The fact that the old master asked them to take it back while Susan was still picking faults with them

made Luca feel it was not the best timing.

Although the Crawford family was wealthy, Susan was petty. Giving expensive seafood as a gift might

not sit well with her.

Even though refusing the gift might seem contrary to Luke thanking him, considering the family's

harmony, Luca gently said, "Old Master Crawford, it's okay. You should keep it and enjoy it for

yourself."

Susan secretly let out a cold snort. Before she could say anything, Old Master Crawford declined.

"Bring it back. You and the kids enjoy it. Just take it. An old man like me can't eat much at home. It'll go



to waste."

The old master's words stabbed at Susan's heart.

Who was he to say he could not eat it alone? Did she not just come back today? Moreover, she was

planning to stay for dinner. She felt completely ignored by the old master at this moment.

Luke's kids were fond of the lobster, and they could have it since they liked it. Her precious

granddaughter enjoyed lobster too. "Father, Thea loves it too.”

Old Master Crawford rolled his eyes at her as his wrinkles deepened. "Louis got kicked out by you, and

Thea doesn't live with you either. If she wants to eat it, I'll have someone deliver it to her another day."

Susan was rendered speechless. A deeper sense of dissatisfaction settled within her. However, she

also realized what the old master said.

Did he know where Louis lived?

Well, Louis dared to defy her but not the old master. Hence, when he moved out, he must have

discussed it with the old master.

Susan looked at the bag in Luke's hands. Even though she could not see the seafood inside, she could

not help but feel jealous.

She was not lacking in food. She could buy whatever she wanted. However, the fact that the old master

showed favoritism toward them bothered her inexplicably.

Luke knew why Susan returned to Crawford Manor today, and he did not want to get involved in this

matter.



Therefore, he said to Old Master Crawford, "Grandpa, I'll keep the seafood. Thanks. We'll head back

now."

"Go ahead. Remember to come back for a meal when you have time.” Old Master Crawford waved at

them, signaling them to leave.

As for Susan, he knew she would surely pester him for a while longer.

Luke took Luca with him and left.

After the family of five got in the car, Luca asked slowly, "Is this really okay?"

"There shouldn't be any issues," answered Luke. Susan might vent her frustrations on other members

of the Crawford family, but she dared not to take it out on Old Master Crawford.

Besides, Mr. Griffin was there. Even if Susan acted irrationally, she could not do anything to harm the

old master.

Luca was still worried that after they left, Susan would cause a scene at Crawford Manor.

Luca glanced sideways at Luke. When she was about to speak, Lanie chimed in, "Grandma Susan

won't cause a huge scene. She just wants to know where Uncle Louis moved to."

Luca turned to look at Lanie in the back seat. "You heard everything yesterday?"

Tommy nodded and answered, "Grandma Susan was talking loudly in the living room yesterday. We

could hear it even on the second floor."

Luca nodded. Indeed, the kids had heard everything.

"Grandma Susan came back today to find out from Great-grandpa where Uncle Louis and his family

are living now," added Lanie. Even though Susan had not revealed her true intentions, Lanie guessed



pretty accurately.

"You kids, you know everything about the adults' affairs," said Luca with a helpless smile on her face

while shaking her head.

The kids were too clever, making them, as parents, both relieved and sometimes perplexed. They were

thinking about things that kids their age should not be concerned with, and they even thought about the

adults.

"Ms. Luca, Grandma Susan's intentions are too obvious. Uncle Louis is avoiding her now. I think we

shouldn't tell Grandma Susan his whereabouts," Tommy could not help but say.

Yesterday, they heard the noises coming from the first floor when they were on the second floor. They

knew what was going on. At the same time, they hoped Susan would not find their Uncle Louis.

They all felt sorry for their uncle.

He had already become someone else's father and was still kicked out by his own mother. It was

embarrassing. It was completely different from their father’s situation.

Their grandmother liked to make a fuss too, but she had no choice but to listen obediently to their

father when she faced him. No matter how big of a fuss she made, she could never gain any

advantage from their father, let alone affect their lives.

In comparison, the three kids felt that their uncle was much more pitiful.

"Kids, just leave this matter alone. If Grandma Susan comes to ask where Uncle Louis lives someday,

just tell her you don't know, okay?"

As Luca listened to what the kids said, she suddenly felt that if Susan did not manage to find out Louis'

whereabouts, she might eventually approach the three kids for information.

In fact, finding out where Louis was was simple.

Louis did not answer her calls, but Susan knew where his company was. A visit to his company would

reveal everything.

However, Susan did not do that. It was for a simple reason—she could not bring herself to do it. She

could not swallow her pride in this matter.

Luca was also puzzled. Susan could not bring herself to do it, and that was why she did not go to Louis’

company to find out his address. Instead, she chose to look to bother Old Master Crawford and Luke.

Was she not embarrassing herself?

Luca could not understand what Susan was thinking. Instead of patching things up with Louis, she

made a public spectacle of her conflict with him...

"We also don't know where Uncle Louis lives," replied Tommy cheerfully. Even if Susan came knocking

on their door with lots of delicious treats, they would not have a clue.

The school Louis chose for Thea was different from the one their father arranged for them. When there

was no interaction between the families, they rarely crossed paths with Thea.

Hence, they had no idea where their uncle's family had gone.

"Let's not discuss this matter." Luke suddenly spoke up, casting a sidelong glance at Luca. He asked,

"How do you want the lobster to be cooked?"

Luca paused for a moment and then flashed a smile.



She asked, "How would you like to have it?"

"Grandpa said you love it, so you should decide how you want it prepared." Luke handed the decision

to her.
