Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 1728

Luca returned to the office and placed her laptop down. As she was afraid of making Luke wait any longer, she hurried over to the elevator.

Luke was standing there.

Luca walked over and said, "I'm done, Mr. Crawford."

"Alright," Luke said as he nodded and pressed the elevator button. The elevator had already arrived at that floor beforehand, so the doors immediately opened when he pressed the button.

Luke walked in first, and Luca went in after him with her head lowered. When she noticed that Luke had been pressing on the door open button, she felt her heart flutter once more at how considerate he was.

He only let go after she walked in.

The elevator doors closed slowly, and Luca watched Luke press on the button for the first floor. She asked, "Mr. Crawford, don't we need to go to the parking lot first?"

"We'll be eating at a place nearby, so there's no need to drive," Luke explained.

Eating at a place nearby...

In that case, it meant that not did Tina know but the entire company would learn about it too.

Luca felt apprehensive about it, but there was nothing she could do as he had made the decision himself...

When the elevator arrived on the first floor, Luke walked out first with his hands in his pockets while Luca walked behind him with her head lowered.

A group of employees happened to be returning from their meal. When they saw their boss and Luca, they hurriedly made way for them and called out in greeting, "Hello, Boss. Hello, Dr. Craw."

Luca felt like she was an attachment. It was because of Luke that not only did these people all know who she was now, but they also sounded like they were trying to curry favor with her when they said hi.

Things felt like they were spiraling more and more out of control. She felt her head begin to swell.

Luke nodded aloofly in reply before walking out of the building.

Luca hurried after him.

As the employees behind them watched, they could not help but discuss among themselves. "Hey, do you really think that the boss has gotten together with Dr. Craw?" "Have you forgotten? We can't discuss that here," another employee answered. "If Mr. Doyle or anyone else hears you, you'll lose your job."

"Alright, got it. Let's not talk about it anymore."

Luca followed Luke to a cafe nearby. Once they entered, a waiter enthusiastically hurried over and led them to a private room.

The waiter began bringing dishes to the table once they had settled down.

Luca reckoned that these dishes were pre-ordered. She recalled how Luke had been using his phone for a while during the meeting and thought that he must have been placing his order then.

There were not many dishes, but none of them seemed to be light foods. Luca was still staring at the dishes hesitantly when the waiter brought over a fruit and vegetable salad.

"You can have this salad if you find these dishes too greasy for you," Luke said.

Luca realized that he was referring to the fruit and vegetable salad when he was talking about light foods.

Indeed, it was a light dish.

"Thank you, Mr. Crawford," Luca said as she lowered her eyes and gazed at the salad in front of her. It was tastier and healthier than just bread. Thus, she picked up her fork and began eating quietly.

When Luke noticed that she was not going to have even a bite of meat, he frowned and placed several pieces of meat on her plate. "You won't have enough energy by just eating that. Have smeat too. The afternoon is going to be a busy one."

Luca nodded and looked at the meat on her plate. They were all meats that she enjoyed.

He knew her inside out...

After finishing the meat on her plate, Luca was just about to have ssalad to soothe her stomach from the grease when several more pieces of meat appeared on her plate.

Luke said, "Have smore. You'll have to work overttonight and might not have enough tfor dinner."

"Alright," Luca said as she continued eating the meat. After finishing that portion, she covered her plate with her hands and said, "Mr. Crawford, that's enough. Please don't giveanymore."

Luke did not force her to eat any more meat when he noticed how she genuinely seemed reluctant to have more. He nodded and began eating.

After finishing their meal, the two returned to the office again.

This time, when the receptionists noticed them walking in, they hurriedly called out to them in greeting as well. When Luca heard how respectfully they were speaking, she knew that this time, there would be nothing she could do to remove the sigma from her name.

Luke walked into his private elevator, and when he noticed that Luca was not going to cin, said, "Hey, con in."

She wanted to remain steadfast, but there were other employees nearby. It would not be the best idea to be stubborn now, which was why she lowered her head and walked into his private elevator.

The doors slid shut, and they began traveling upward.

Luca said, "Mr. Crawford, misunderstandings are going to occur if you treatthis way."

"What's there for them to misunderstand?" Luke asked.

"They're going to misunderstand that we're..." Luca spoke frankly, hoping that Luke would be more mindful when they were in public so that their reputations would not get affected.

After all, Mrs. Crawford would get involved in this as well.

Luke raised an eyebrow and asked, "Have you misunderstood something?"

"No, I haven't. And I am perfectly aware of what's going on too. However, once gossip spreads, not only will it be very troubling for me, but it'll also impact you negatively," Luca said as she lowered her eyes. He had done things that would cause misunderstandings again and again. It made her feel helpless.

"Then just let it spread," Luke said nonchalantly.

Luca looked up at him with an incredulous expression on her face.

Luke continued speaking, "I think it's tyou and I talked. I'll talk to you in a few days after finishing everything there is to be done."

He had already decided he wanted to get closer to Luca, which meant that it was imperative he had this conversation with her!

Luca nodded resignedly. Although she had no idea what he wanted to say to her, she had no idea what else to do given their current situation now. Thus, it would be a good idea to set things straight.

The elevator arrived at its destination. As usual, Luke walked out first, and Luca walked out after him. Their offices were in the sdirection, which meant that he walked in front of her while she tagged along after him.

Zoey happened to pass by while they were walking. Upon seeing them, she paused and said in greeting, "Hello, Mr. Crawford. Hello, Dr. Craw."

"Hi," Luke answered in reply.

Luca, on the other hand, nodded and walked away as Zoey stared at her.

As Zoey gazed at their backs, she recalled the photo that was circulating in the company's group chat previously. They sure were a good match and made an ideal couple.

She happened to bump into Jenni when she took the elevator downstairs.

"Were you upstairs just now?" Jenni asked as she walked in and pressed the button to close the doors.

"Yes. I also bumped into the boss and Dr. Craw just now. I think they were walking out from the same elevator. They were standing quite close to each other," Zoey replied as she nodded. She was saying this on purpose so it would serve as a reminder to Jenni.

Jenni had always thought she stood a chance because Luke's wife was not staying with him now.

However, now, it seemed that she no longer stood a chance.

No matter how she looked at it, it seemed more probable that Luca and Luke would get together. After all, Jenni was merely a junior manager. What sort of authority could she have to approach Luke?"

Zoey merely wanted to give her a wake-up call.

When Jenni heard that, she gritted her teeth together and said, "I knew it. I heard from the receptionists downstairs that they went out for lunch at the stand they also returned together. Who knows what kind of seduction methods Luca must have used to charm the boss? I'm so angry!"
