Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 239 Proof That We Are Family

Everyone who had participated in the meeting was thoroughly exhausted, though Luke looked as though he was an emotionless robot. He strode energetically toward his office.

"Daddy... mmm..."

Rainie was the first to wake up when she heard her father's steady footsteps. She mumbled and rubbed her eyes.

Luke nodded at the little girl and tried to smile at her, though his smile was more like a reluctant stretch of the corners of his mouth.

Previously, his interactions as a father toward his children were more like formulaic obligations rather than gestures of intimacy.

That was the first tthat he showed skindness to his children.

Rainie was shocked when she looked at her dad. She thought that he looked better when he was crying.

She planned to tell Miss Bea that Daddy was acting weirdly today, as though he was a cunning wolf who wanted to lure an innocent little rabbit into his den and snap its throat...

Whoosh! Rainie hid behind the couch.

Perhaps Daddy was not himself today.

Luke did not know what his daughter was thinking. He thought that the smile was kind, gentle, and fatherly.

He sat in his comfortable office chair and deliberated how he should communicate with his children. At that time, the secretary cinto the office with a cup of freshly brewed Americano. She nodded to him and left the office.

Luke took a sip of the coffee. Then, he looked at the confused children and finally took out three things from a drawer.

Two of them were the same. They were colorful picture books.

The other was a document envelope made of kraft paper fastened by string.

The two children blinked, wondering what their father's intentions were.

Luke was not used to indulging his children. He tossed the picture books on the dark-colored office table and told them, "These are for you. You can take one each." "These are for us?" Lanie and Rainie did not know what was going on, though they quickly hopped down the couch, scampered over to the office table that was almost as tall as them, then tiptoed to look at what was on the table.

Their attention was immediately captivated by the colorful picture books.

"Thank you, Daddy!" Lanie tore the wrapping apart, threw it into the trash can, and eagerly flipped through the picture book.

Rainie was also tearing away the wrapping, though she was looking at her brother's book as though Lanie's book was somehow better.

Luke silently observed his two children.

He did not expect that he understood what they wanted. A simple picture book could brighten their day and even make them forget that they were hungry.

Just when he was feeling smug about making his children happy, he opened the envelope containing the DNA test report.

He believed that if he was correct about his decision to give his children picture books, then his speech to them later should be correct too.

At the stime, Yvonne's mother and her lawyer arrived at the police station.

After asking around, Mrs. Gideon and the lawyer eventually could meet Yvonne.

Yvonne thought that her tears had already run dry after crying out of fright for no less than a hundred times. However, once she saw her mother, she burst into tears again. "Mom! Mom... you have to save me..."

Mrs. Gideon stepped forward, hugged her daughter, and patted her back. ’ Don't worry. I've brought the lawyer here today."

Mrs. Gideon was not too old, and she was not very well-educated. However, she knew how to primp herself and had won her current husband's heart by being more flirtatious than the other women of her age. Now that medical technology was getting more advanced, she was also trying to have a test-tube baby, so that she could bear a child for her current husband, preferably a son.

She paid less attention to her daughter because she was focused on the test-tube baby.

The lawyer remained composed. He gestured at the mother and daughter, inviting them to sit down.

The lawyer looked at Yvonne and said, "Nice to meet you, Ms. Gideon. Your mother has givena rough summary of the incident. Now, you have to tellthe truth because I will be your defense lawyer when the case goes on trial, and I am the only one who can help you."

Yvonne nodded. "Yes, I will answer all your questions truthfully." "Letask you, Ms. Gideon, are you complicit in the abduction of Bianca Rayne's grandfather?” The lawyer asked his first question.

When Yvonne heard the question, she looked at her mother.

Mrs. Gideon was someone with no opinion of her own. Her attention was focused on flirting and bridge.

When such incidents happened, she only had her husband or her lawyer to rely on.

However, her current husband had said that he could not help Yvonne.

The party that was bringing Yvonne to court was someone with a lot of clout. The police could not divulge their names. It meant that Bianca had someone influential supporting her behind the scenes.

"Quick, tell the lawyer," Mrs. Gideon urged.

Yvonne was shocked when she saw that her mother had trusted the lawyer so much. She instantly told the truth, "I've told you that I'm not the one involved in the abduction. All I did was tell someone else the idea, and that person hired someone else to do it..."

The lawyer recorded it down, then lifted his head and asked, "Who is that' someone else' you mentioned?"

Yvonne hesitated and did not speak.

"I need to know that person's nand status and your relationship with them," the lawyer said.

Yvonne thought for a bit and told the lawyer Xavier's name.

She tried to push all responsibility to Xavier and emphasized to the lawyer, ’ I only suggested to him to do so because I sincerely hoped that Bianca Rayne could be his wife. I only provided the suggestion.

The actual deed was done by Xavier himself..."

The lawyer nodded and recorded it all down.

Yvonne's tense expression loosened a little, but she soon remembered that she might have to spend the night at the police station and started shivering again.

For someone kept awake by troubling thoughts, one night was a very long tindeed.

The next morning.

The sky was already bright before six o'clock. Bianca got up from the hospital bed. Her bones were aching.

She had to remain in the ssleeping position. Her bones could not take it.

When she opened her eyes, she was pleasantly surprised to see the two children standing next to the bed. Their eyes were sparkling with excitement.

"You two..."

Bianca had only opened her mouth when Rainie leaned over, hugged her neck, pecked her cheek, and whispered, "I love you, Mommy..."

Bianca was stunned.

Lanie was relatively calmer compared to Rainie. He brought her a glass of warm milk and said, "Good morning, Mommy. This is the first tI've greeted you good morning, and I will greet you every morning."

Bianca was stunned for a long tbefore she took the glass from Lanie. She wanted to say something, but her mouth was dry, and her throat hurt. She did not know how to react.

Lanie pouted and seemed a little shy. "Rainie and I looked at the DNA test report. We don't really know what it says, but Daddy says that it's proof that we're a family."
