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

Knowing that Warren was not accustomed to such scenes, Luca smiled helplessly and said,

"Mr.

Crawford must have his reasons for asking you to sit here. Just relax and sit tight. You can

always glance at your phone to shift your focus if you have nothing to do."

Warren found her suggestion good. Therefore, he picked up his phone and started reading

a .

He was, after all, just a subordinate of Gale and Rain. He did not have much expertise. He

excelled in tasks involving fighting or observation.

However, when it came to attending such networking events, he felt out of place.

Therefore, Warren decided to distract himself by reading the .

Luca's gaze wandered around. She felt that she had it easy since no one was engaging her

in conversation.

No matter how expensive the professional suit she wore today, others would simply

assume she was either Luke's or Evan's secretary with Luke in attendance.

Whether they misunderstood or not did not concern Luca much.

It did not matter to her what they thought.

The most important thing at the moment was to find Abel.

With these thoughts in mind, Luca noticed a figure standing in front of her. "Hello, are you

Dr. Craw?" asked the person.

Luca was surprised and looked up at the person.

His face was youthful, and he had Caucasian facial features. Luca nodded and replied,

"Yes, I am. And you are...?"

"I'm an intern from a pharmaceutical company. I saw you over there, sitting in Watson's

seat. You look familiar, so I came over to confirm. Turns out it's really you..." said the intern

excitedly.

Luca looked at the intern without suspicion.

This networking event was not a large industry gathering. It was just that many

pharmaceutical companies took it seriously because of Luke's attendance.

Some small companies might not have received the message and would stick to their

original plan of sending department heads along with their secretaries or interns.

Interns were usually assigned menial tasks for their company, like gathering

pharmaceutical brochures and the like. Executives did not typically handle these kinds of

tasks themselves, so they had someone else do the legwork.

Luca nodded slightly, unsure of what to say. Ironically, the intern's appearance made her

feel a bit annoyed.

He was here because of her, so she had to divert her attention to deal with him.

That meant she could not fully concentrate on the event.

The intern, being inexperienced, did not catch Luca's slight annoyance or her reluctance

to entertain him.

Instead, he spoke with admiration, "Dr. Craw, I've seen the drug you developed. It's

amazing! It’s a lifesaver for many cancer patients. Could you briefly tell me about your

initial thoughts when you started this research?"

As the intern spoke, he began recording on his phone.

Luca frowned. The intern really could not read the room...

"I didn't have any specific thoughts," said Luca. Moreover, this question should be directed

to Shanks.

He was the original developer of the drug. She had only conducted further research based

on his work.

Even though her research had improved upon the previous one, it was the result of the

entire research team—not just her alone.

The truly talented one was Shanks.

Shanks single-handedly did the work of the entire research team.

"Ah..." The intern did not expect Luca to respond like this. He thought female research

professors would be easier to approach than males, but Luca was too aloof.

He brought his phone closer and said with a pleading tone, "Dr. Craw, my graduation

thesis is focused on analyzing your research. That’s why I really need your insights. I want

to know the difficulties you encountered during the experiments.

"I know you might find this annoying, but please help me. There's very little information

about your research online."

As Warren listened to the intern, he put away his phone and stood up. He was ready to ask

the intern to leave.

However, Luca's gaze suddenly fell on the intern's phone.

That phone...

It was from the Island of Despair!

Luca's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Abel had already known everything and was

observing silently from a corner they could not see. The intern was also sent by Abel.

Historically, almost all of Abel's subordinates had ethnic features. Even if there were

Caucasian faces, they were notably different from the Caucasian faces in A City.

Basically, those with Caucasian facial features were easily distinguishable at a glance.

However, the intern claiming to be an intern not only had a Caucasian appearance but

also looked very young and inexperienced.

"Excuse me..." Warren was already planning to drive away the intern.

However, Luca suddenly rose to her feet.

Not only Warren but Luke's and Evan's gazes also fell on her.

At this moment, Luca could not be bothered about other things.

She could not talk to Luke right now. Otherwise, Abel might notice something. Even so,

she believed Luke would understand her intentions.

Hence, Luca looked straight at the intern and asked, "What's your name?"

The intern obviously did not expect her to ask such a question and forced a smile. He

replied, "My name is Jacob Cook."

"Jacob, right? Are you here to interview me?" Luca asked again.

Jacob shook his head. "No, it's not an interview. I'm not a journalist, Dr. Craw. I'm just an

intern in the field of biopharmaceuticals, preparing for my graduation thesis. I’d like to

consult with you to help me write my thesis."

Luca looked at Jacob's face. When did Abel have subordinates like this?

His features, expressions, and even his way of speaking were all like a college student in A

City who was about to graduate...

Abel's subordinates used to have ethnic facial features. They could be easily identified

with just a glance in A City.

Hence, it was easy to distinguish between friend and foe.

However, if he had such subordinates, it would be really difficult to tell in the future.

It was unknown how many people like this Abel had around him.

Luca said, "It's too noisy here and not suitable for discussion. Let's go to a quieter corner.

I'll tell you there. Anyway, there's still some time before the seminar begins."

"That's great. Thank you, Dr. Craw," replied Jacob. He then invited Luca toward the area

where his company's seats were.

The company where Jacob worked was relatively small, and the assigned seating was

quite remote. He led Luca to a corner.

Luca did not look back at Luke because she was sure that Abel was secretly observing

them.

Moreover, Luke must know what she intended to do.

Warren watched as Luca followed Jacob away and then turned to Luke. "Mr. Crawford?"

"No need to follow her. Sit down," Luke calmly replied. He was also pretending to remain

calm.

They had to pretend to be calm and act as if they did not know anything at the moment.

Otherwise, Luca's previous disguise would have been in vain.

They had more than just Abel to deal with now. They also had to rescue their daughter.

That was why they could not act rashly.
