Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 2939

Luca was puzzled. She had initially thought that Rainie was feeling down because of her involvement with Luke.

Little did she know that the child was upset because of the reporters exposing her relationship with Luke.

"Rainie?" Luca still could not quite understand.

Rainie looked at her with teary eyes and said, "Ms. Luca, I'm afraid you'll leave us because of this."

“How could I..." Luca's heart softened, and her eyes welled up with tears. She realized that the child was worried about her leaving and being separated because of the news.

"Ms. Luca, you won't leave, right? No matter what those reporters say, you won't leave, will you?" Rainie wanted to seek an answer from Luca.

"Don't worry. I won't leave," Luca reassured her and held her in her arms. Girls' minds were often more delicate than boys'. She understood that Rainie was afraid of her leaving because of the news.

However, they were all precious to her. How could she ever leave them?

"Okay. As long as you stay, Ms. Luca," replied Rainie as she emerged from Luca's embrace. She closed the webpage on her tablet and placed it on the table.

She was relieved when she knew Luca would not leave.

"It's getting late. Let's go to bed," said Luca as she took a tissue from the table and gently wiped Rainie's face.

Rainie stared at her with her big, sparkling eyes. Luca felt like her heart was melting. "Don't worry. From now on, I'll be here every day."

Luca secretly added another word in her heart, 'Hopefully.'

The intewas abuzz with this matter. Luca wondered what Abel's reaction would be if he saw it.

Perhaps he was planning a schto deal with Luke.

Luca refused to beca tool against Luke, but Nyla was still in Abel's hands. Therefore, she had no choice but to be a weapon against Luke.

After putting Rainie to sleep, Luca returned to the master bedroom. She glanced at the opposite door that was left ajar, where she could hear intermittent conversations.

Was Luke in a video conference or on the phone?

Luca was not sure since he intentionally kept his voice low, and she could not make out what he was saying.

He was busy, and she did not want to disturb him. So, she went back to the master bedroom, leaned against the bed, and thought for a moment before opening a drawer to take out smelatonin.

She had given all the sleep aids to Vivian and Tina. Her sleep quality had improved with Luke by her side. Hence, she no longer needed those medications. That was why she did not continue making them.

However, she bought a bottle of melatonin from the pharmacy just in case.

Surprisingly, it cin handy today.

After swallowing a melatonin tablet, Luca left a nightlight on for Luke. Then, she covered herself with a blanket and closed her eyes.

After Luke finished his work and checked the time, he figured that Luca was already asleep. To avoid disturbing her, he washed up in the adjacent bathroom before returning to the bedroom.

No matter how late it was, as long as Luca was sleeping here, he would cover.

As Luke looked at the warm glow of the nightlight, his eyes softened. Just a while ago, he was dealing with the newspaper company's editor and making decisions.

The editor had reservations about his actions, but Luke had made up his mind and was known for his decisive approach. The editor had no choice but to follow through.

Now, he had shed his stern demeanor. An air of tenderness enveloped him.

What could make him gentle was none other than their children, and her, of course.

She was the woman he loved the most.

Luke sat on the edge of the bed. After he turned off the nightlight, he lay down with one arm around Luca.

Luca felt the warmth. In her slumber, she leaned against his chest.

"Go to sleep. Good night." Luke gently planted a kiss on her cheek.

Even though Luca was asleep, she magically responded to Luke's words, "Mmm, good night."

Luke held her tighter. Many things could be settled by tomorrow. The outside world would not be abuzz with intense discussions about their relationship anymore.

As long as they managed to quell the public chatter from the outside, all that remained was to see how the people she cared about the most performed.

If they put on a good show, they would be one big happy family again soon.

The following day, Luca opened her eyes, and her instinct led her to glance to the side.

The empty spot on the bed next to her was no longer warm. It seemed that Luke had already gotten up. She recalled what Luke had said yesterday, that he would suppress their rumors today.

Moreover, he would be using a clarification alongside other gossip news.

Luca could not help but be curious about what kind of news Luke would use to quell their rumors.

Rather than rushing to get out of bed, she reached for her phone on the bedside table. Before she could even unlock the screen, a knock sounded on the door.

Rainie's voice cfrom outside. "Ms. Luca, are you awake?"

"Yes, I'm up." Luca's voice barely left her lips before Rainie entered the room.

The young girl was already dressed in her school uniform. She had also combed her hair neatly. She looked energetic as she stared at Luca. When she saw that Luca had not gotten up yet, she asked hesitantly, "Did I wake you up, Ms. Luca?"

"No. I woke up a while ago. I was just lingering in bed." Luca noticed her daughter's guilt and decided to forgo checking the news for now. She sat up and said, "I'm going to freshen up now."

"Okay!" Rainie smiled and nodded.

Luca then remembered that she had something to ask and looked at Rainie. "Rainie, is there something you wanted to talk toabout?"

"No, nothing at all. Ms. Luca, I'm going downstairs for breakfast!" replied Rainie. Then, she left the bedroom. She did not tell Luca that she had cso early to knock on her door because she was worried that Luca might leave while they were all asleep.

Last night, she had a bad dream and woke up wanting to find Luca.

However, she woke up too early. She thought that they were all still asleep, so she waited until just now to knock on the door.

She only felt at ease when she saw Luca was still here.

Luca watched Rainie leave, then turned around and closed the door behind her.

She shook her head and smiled. The little girl was worried that she might sneak away in the middle of the night, so she cto check on her early in the morning.

Luca was even more determined not to leave when she saw Rainie behaving like that.

The kids genuinely liked her, even though they did not know she was their mother.

However, if someday she had to follow Abel's instructions and leave them, they would undoubtedly be heartbroken.

Even she herself could not bear the thought of it...

After quickly freshening up, Luca changed into her professional attire and opened the bedroom door while preparing to leave. At the stime, the door of the opposite bedroom swung open. Luke stood behind it, looking at her.

"Why are you up so early?" asked Luca when she met his deep, dark eyes.

"There's quite a bit to handle. Do you want to cin and check the news?" asked Luke. Two hours ago, T Corporation's PR department had already released a clarification statement.

Following that, various news media companies under their umbrella shared this clarification across social media platforms.

Meanwhile, several reporters had been working together to mock those photos of Luca and Luke's supposed affair. Their reports were accompanied with explanations.

Just ten minutes ago, a report about Karen, who was affiliated with T Corporation, was published.
