Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 2966

"Don't worry about me. I'm familiar with this place. Rest well." Nina tucked her in and placed her phone on the bedside. "If you need anything, givea call. I'll be outside. I'm leaving the phone right beside the bed, so you can reach it easily."

"Thank you." Luca closed her eyes. Her hands under the blanket remained clenched.

Nina shook her head in helplessness when she saw how weak Luca was, wondering what had happened to make her like this.

If Luca had not assured her that she was physically fine, Nina would have probably called an ambulance for her by now.

Nina noticed that Luca had closed her eyes, so she turned and walked out of the bedroom. She closed the door behind her.

She went to the guest room, glanced at the missing toiletries, then headed downstairs to the storage room to find snew ones.

Before she could enter the storage room, she heard footsteps behind her.

Nina turned around and saw that Luke was back. She furrowed her brows, feeling a bit annoyed.

She was annoyed that Luke cback so late. When she thought about Luca's situation earlier, she was about to voice her complaint. However, she suddenly hesitated.

Why was she blaming Luke? Was it just because he was with Luca now? Was it because he had not taken good care of Luca and that was why she was all up in her feelings?

Nina found her thoughts rather peculiar.

After all, she also believed that Luke was having an affair.

Normally, when a guy cheated, Nina would not really have too many thoughts about whether he was treating the other woman well or not.

However, perhaps it was because of Percy's influence, she did not see Luca as a mistress. Thus, she thought it was wrong for Luke not to take care of her.

Still, Bianca was still abroad, and she was Luke's rightful wife!

Nina could not understand her conflicting thoughts.

Luke saw the strange expression on Nina's face and remained silent. He knew why she was there, yet he asked, “Why are you here?”

Luke knew exactly why Nina was here. Luca had to go to the hospital, but she was worried that no one would be here to look after the children, which was why Nina came.

Luke was putting on a complete act. He already figured it out, but he pretended not to know.

"Luca isn't feeling well. I cto take care of her. But why did you take so long to cback?" asked Nina.

Luke frowned. "Luca isn't feeling well?"

Without waiting for Nina's response, he quickly made his way up the stairs.

"Hey, you..." As Nina watched him hurry upstairs, she understood that he was genuinely concerned about Luca's condition.

She could not help but mutter to herself that he was not around when Luca was not feeling well. Now that she was in bed, he was showing how concerned he was.

With these thoughts in her mind, Nina quickly followed behind him. "She didn't say she was feeling unwell. She just mentioned that she was feeling upset because of sdifficult situation. She's already in bed. Please don't wake her up."

"I'll take good care of her. It's getting late. Rest early." Luke knew Nina was worried about Luca. He also understood that she would likely spend the night here as it was not safe to go back hat this hour.

Nina watched him enter the master bedroom and paused for a moment. She shook her head, then went back downstairs.

Luke had returned, and Luca was being taken care of. There was no need for her to worry.

Therefore, she decided to grab sfresh toiletries from the storage room, freshen up, and go to bed. She planned to return in the morning.

As Nina thought about it, she made her way down the stairs.

Luke walked into the master bedroom. The lights were not completely turned off, allowing him to see Luca, who was lying on the bed.

He walked over and sat on the edge of the bed, gazing at Luca's pale face. His heart could not help but ache.

Was he pushing too hard in doing what he did?

Luca was strong in many aspects, enduring pain without making a sound. However, she was fragile when it was about her family.

She was probably feeling this way now because she believed that the scandal had caused suffering for her most cherished elders.

She was caught between voicing out and remaining silent. That was why she was in this state now.

Luke could not help but question if he had done something wrong by pushing her like this.

"Luke?" A familiar scent enveloped Luca. She slowly opened her eyes and saw the man sitting on the edge of the bed.

Luke tightly pursed his lips together, seemingly deep in thought about something.

"Yes. Are you feeling better?" asked Luke.

"I'm much better." Luca smiled weakly, indicating that she was okay.

In just a short ten minutes or so, she had not actually fallen asleep. She had been thinking about a lot of things, though she still had not figured out how to proceed.

"Lettake you to the hospital," said Luke as he held her hand. He could not help but furrow his brows. Her hand was icy cold, as though she had just cout of an ice cave.

"No need. I'll just get srest," Luca shook her head, holding onto his hand tightly.

The warmth in the palm of Luke's hand was comforting. She did not want to let go.

Feeling her attachment, Luke's guilt grew. In reality, they could cooperate with her, pretend to believe that the rumors were false, and have everyone treat her the sas before.

However, he wanted to know why she had been under the control of the Island of Despair, which was why he asked Queenie and Wanda to help him.

As long as Luca confessed everything to him, he was confident that he could handle her situation.

"Alright. Let's not go to the hospital." Luke touched her forehead, which was slightly warmer than her hand. "Can you sleep?"

Luca shook her head. Even with him by her side, her mind was filled with worries and issues. How could she fall asleep?

Luke brushed her hair back from her forehead and whispered, "How about taking smelatonin?"

Luca did not refuse and replied in a soft voice, "Okay."

Luke took out the box of melatonin that Luca had kept in the drawer and shook out a pill, bringing it to her lips.

Luca opened her mouth slightly, swallowed the pill, and closed her eyes again.

"I'll go freshen up first. If you need anything, just call me." Luke leaned down and planted a kiss on her forehead.

Luca slightly opened her eyes again and said, "Nina..."

"I know. She can take care of herself," Luke reassured her.

Nina was not a stranger to their home. She had stayed here for a while before and was quite familiar with the place. She could take care of herself.

Luca closed her eyes again.

Luke opened the wardrobe, took a fresh set of pajamas, and headed into the bathroom.

He initially did not plan to freshen up here, fearing that the sound might disturb Luca's rest. However, he realized that if he went to another bathroom, he would not be able to know immediately if anything

happened to Luca.

Hence, he decided to quickly freshen up in the master bedroom's bathroom.

While he was freshening up, his ears remained tuned to the sounds outside.

After that, Luke walked out of the bathroom and glanced at Luca, who was still lying in bed. She had changed her position.

Luke's dark eyes darkened even more, and a hint of helplessness flashed across his gaze.

He loved her deeply, but he had to push her like this now.

Luke quickly walked to the other side of the bed and removed his shoes. After turning off the lights, he lay down. The next thing on his mind was to pull Luca into his arms.

"I haven't taken a shower. I'm dirty..." Luca muttered. She had not fallen asleep and knew that Luke wanted to hold her in his arms. She reminded him when she remembered his neat freak tendencies.

"You're not. Sweetie, get srest," Luke whispered into her ear, planting a kiss on her earlobe. He insisted on holding her close.
