Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Fortunately, she did not expose herself in front of Percy.

The waitress let out a sigh of relief and stood to the side of the private room. Even though she did not reveal any flaws, her focus today was solely on serving this private room.

Therefore, she had to stand by the door. She had to be ready to provide service to the guests while also keeping an eye on things.

The waitress remained stationed by the door, watching as the kitchen staff brought out the dishes. She knocked on the door again, "Sir, may I serve the dishes now?"

"Sure." Percy's voice came from inside.

The waitress pushed the door open, signaling the kitchen staff to bring in the exquisite dishes.

As plate after plate of food was placed on the table, the sight left Luca astonished. There were only four of them, yet they had ordered so many dishes. Could they finish it all?

Luke shared the same thought with Luca. He teased Percy, "That's quite a spread. With so many dishes, do you think we'll be able to finish them all?"

Once all the dishes were served, the waitress left. Only the four of them were left in the private room.

Percy picked up the wine bottle and poured it for them. "I might've overordered for four people, but the food serves as a token of my gratitude to Dr. Craw. I wasn't sure what Dr. Craw liked to eat, so I ordered a few extra dishes."

"She doesn't like meatloaf," said Luke.

When Nina heard this, she could not help but exclaim with puzzlement.

Luca also turned to look at Luke. How could he blurt that out?!

Having been friends with Nina for many years, it was well-known that her least favorite dish was meatloaf.

Luca then glanced at Nina, hoping she would not read too much into it.

Nina did not think much of it. She smiled and said, "I was suddenly reminded of a friend who also dislikes meatloaf."

She refrained from mentioning Bianca out of consideration for Luca's feelings.

After all, Luca and Bianca were at odds.

There was only one thing on Luke's mind. If Bianca were to return one day, Luca might have to face the possibility of leaving...

Whether it was the previous Bianca or the current one, neither could accept sharing Luke with someone else.

It was not only Bianca who could not accept it; Nina could not either. She could not bear the thought of other women sharing Percy.

Therefore, she could understand these sentiments.

"I see." Luca nodded. When she heard Nina say so, she knew Nina had not caught on.

Luke and Percy exchanged glances with each other. Their eyes conveyed a sense of helplessness.

Percy had always kept Nina in the dark about their situation with Luca because Luca's situation was not too good. If Nina did not know, there would be less risk of her getting involved.

However, Percy felt that constantly hiding it from Nina was not the solution either. Thus, whether intentionally or unintentionally, he would drop hints to prevent Nina from getting angry when she found out the truth later. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

This time, it was Luke who deliberately brought it up. Unexpectedly, Nina did not think much about it.

Still, that was understandable. Nina's social circle was simple. She would not even consider such things happening.

Especially not with her close friend.

Luca noticed the exchange of glances between Luke and Percy. She could not help but shake her head.

They were deliberately saying these things, trying to arouse Nina’s suspicion...

Fortunately, Nina did not think in that direction.

After dinner, they did not immediately leave. Luke and Percy were drinking and discussing business matters.

Now that Luke knew she was Bianca, he did not avoid discussing business matters in front of her.

The waitress brought some fruits in. Nina invited Luca to sit on the nearby couch, saying she wanted to show her the decorative items she bought for the apartment.

After all, the apartment was currently bare, and they needed plenty of decorations to make it vibrant.

Nina chatted with Luca for a while.

While Nina was taking a sip of her tea, Luca said, "Give me a moment. I’d like to go to the restroom."

"Sure, take your time. I'll wait for you," Nina replied cheerfully. She had also had some wine earlier, so her cheeks were flushed. She looked charming.

Luca rose to her feet and noticed Luke was looking at her. She said, "I'm going to the restroom."

"Okay." Luke watched her leave from behind before slowly withdrawing his gaze.

Percy teased, "This is a restaurant. Dr. Craw won't disappear randomly. There’s no need to watch her so closely, right?"

"Are you any better than me?" Luke retorted mercilessly. "Your woman has been sitting on the couch the whole time. Do I need to remind you how many times you looked over there? How many times have you exchanged glances?"

"Oh, come on, what are you two talking about?" As Nina listened to their conversation, her face turned even redder.

Percy had been keeping an eye on her and continuously sending affectionate glances her way.

Nina noticed them clearly, but Luke calling them out made her blush shyly.

"Alright. Let's get back to business," replied Percy. His discussion with Luke was indeed only about work matters. They did not mention anything else about the Island of Despair. They could not let Nina know about that.

Karen kept the door to her private room open. She was someone who valued privacy, but she allowed others to come and go as she was waiting for someone.

When she saw Luca pass by the door of the private room, her eyes flickered. She put down her cutlery, gave a signal to her subordinate, and walked out.

She immediately left the private room, following Luca from a distance.

Karen watched her enter the restroom. A cold smirk appeared on her face. Her eyes caught sight of a cleaning sign nearby. She picked it up and immediately frowned as she found it quite dirty.

However, without hesitation, she placed the sign at the entrance of the women's restroom before entering herself.

She washed her hands and then waited by the sink for Luca.

When Luca came out and saw Karen, she was stunned for a moment. Why was she here?

Was it arranged by Percy?

Luca immediately dismissed the thought. Percy would not make such arrangements.

She looked at Karen. Unable to ignore her, she greeted her in a cold voice, "Madam Mallory."

Karen let out a cold snort. "I thought you'd just ignore me."

Luca secretly thought that she wished she could just ignore her.

However, she was standing there. Plus, she was Percy's mother and Nina's mother-in-law. How could Luca ignore her?

When Luca heard what Karen said and saw her posture, she was pretty sure Karen was deliberately waiting for her.

Whether she was looking for trouble or something else, she could only find out when she asked her about it.

"Do you have something to discuss with me?" asked Luca.

"How can you be so sure I'm here to see you?" questioned Karen.

Luca shook her head nonchalantly. She turned on the faucet to wash her hands. "Aren't you?"

Karen wanted to say no.

However, there was no way she could say it at the thought of Pierre.

She took a deep breath, calming her inner frustration. At that moment, Luca had finished washing her hands and was getting ready to leave.

"Stop right there!" Karen immediately commanded.

The restroom was an ideal spot for a conversation with Luca. It was secluded and free from the interruptions outside.
