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

Chapter 789 His Slender Fingers Touched Bianca's Face

Luke had been sleeping for two days. When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Bianca holding his hand.

The curtains were half-drawn, and the sunlight that came through the window created mottled patterns on the

floor. He could hear birds chirping outside.

His hand was slightly cool. The soft and tender hand that enveloped his hand was warmer, and it carried a familiar

fragrance.

Bianca looked at Luke in a daze.

He had been unconscious for two days, but for Bianca, it might as well have been two years.

The stray strands of his mustache were like sprouts next to his lips. He seemed unkempt.

He was not in his best condition, though his gaze was animated.

As their eyes met, Bianca greedily relished the fact that Luke was filled with vigor once more.

Her eyes misted up. She grasped his hand tightly and said softly, "You're finally awake, Luke. How are your injuries?

Does it hurt?"

Luke looked at her determinedly. "It doesn't hurt. I'm fine. It's only a minor injury."

Bianca tried to maintain her smile, though her tone of voice was stern." You've broken so many ribs, and they had

to do open brain surgery on you. Even Johann said that you nearly became vegetative. You call that minor? Do you

think that you're Superman, Luke?"

Luke's slender fingers gently caressed Bianca’s face and her dry lips. His heart wrenched for her.

The young woman had stood by his side for many years. If she had married an ordinary man instead, she would

have been happier.

He thought that he would be able to protect her by marrying her, but he did not expect that his protection would

fail at certain times.

He gently kissed Bianca's forehead. All those words that he wanted to tell Bianca turned into a sigh that escaped his

mouth.

The door to the ward opened.

Johann happened to witness the intimate scene. A hint of mockery appeared in his eyes, and he joked, "Ooh, you

just woke up from a coma, and you're already at it. I say, Bro, aren't you a little too impatient? Careful that your

wounds become infected."

Bianca blushed slightly. She felt like a schoolgirl whose teenage crushes were exposed by her teacher.

She wanted to retreat from Luke's embrace, but Luke held her tightly in his arms.

He narrowed his gaze at Johann, and there was a hint of iciness in his previously warm voice. "If you have nothing

else better to do, you can go and stay in Africa for a few days."

Johann's mischievous smile faded away when he saw the threat in Luke's gaze.

"I say, Bro, can't you be a little more grateful? Who was the one who risked offending a royal family and

immediately returned from Western Europe when he heard that you're in a critical condition? Now that I'm of no

use to you, are you planning to burn this bridge?"

Luke glanced at his wristwatch impassively. "You have ten minutes to perform your examination." i

Looking at the man's ice-cold gaze, Johann pressed his lips together and wasted no time in examining Luke's body.

Bianca said worriedly while looking at Johann's serious expression, "How is Luke's condition, Dr. Johann?"

Five minutes later, Johann looked at the data on his apparatus and nodded satisfactorily. "Mm, the surgery is a

success, and he'll be as good as new in a few days. By the way, your husband's constitution isn't normal. Any other

man would have already kicked the bucket if they sustained such heavy injuries... but your husband should

completely recover within a month."

Bianca breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you."

Luke probably would not have recovered so quickly if not for Johann's amazing medical skills.

Johann smiled and shook his head. He chatted with them for a while more and gave them some pointers on how to

take care of Luke before leaving the ward and giving the couple some privacy.

People came to visit Luke at the hospital ward.

Some were higher management of T Corporation, while others were Luke's business partners.

The repercussions of the Galleria incident were grave. Many of T Corporation's business partners had chosen to

keep their distance, while some even publicly denounced their ties.

Luke remembered every one of those people. In the future, T Corporation would most likely refuse to do business

with them. At the same time, Luke remembered all the business partners who visited him. Not only had they shown

T Corporation concern in its moment of crisis, but they also proved themselves to be genuine friends. He would

repay them the favor.

Percy with Nina as well as Jim with Scarlett came to visit, bringing presents.

It had been many days since the last time Bianca met Nina and Scarlett.

They were quite happy to see each other, and they retreated to a corner to chat.

Meanwhile, Luke, Jim, and Percy remained in the ward. No one knew the details of their discussion or any plans they

made, but all of them had grim expressions on their faces.

The number of visitors lessened an hour later. Suddenly, Mavis came.

She was probably from the company. Her usually impeccably groomed hair was slightly disheveled, and her

makeup was not as meticulous as before.

Luke was resting on the bed with his eyes closed. He needed the rest while he recovered.

Bianca was sitting on the bed, eating from a box of tarts as her lunch.

When Mavis first came into the ward, she could not help but feel angry when she saw Bianca sitting there and

eating a tart while Luke was "weakly " lying on the bed and looked like he was about to die. "How is the CEO?"

Bianca was nibbling on her tart. She was quite surprised to see how nervous and hostile Mavis was, which also

made her slightly unhappy.

She did not have a favorable impression of that woman who lusted after her husband. No woman would.

Bianca shushed Mavis, dusted her fingers, and said calmly, "My husband has already regained consciousness, and

he needs all the rest that he can get. You don't have to worry about him, Ms. Laviere."

Mavis's gaze narrowed when she sensed the hostility in Bianca's words.

She turned her head and greedily stared at Luke.

As much as she tried to rein in her affection toward Luke, she could not help but be sarcastic when she saw how

nonchalant Bianca seemed to be." Can't I visit my boss when he's so seriously injured? Are you so petty as to

deprive me of my right to visit my boss?"
