Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 978

Chapter 978 His Boss Is Very Protective of His Wife

Old Master Rayne lost two straight games to Luke. He patted Lanie's cheek and said, "But I'm better than your Great-Grandpa!" "Nonsense! I'm the one who taught Luke how to play chess. If you can't beat him, then you're not better than me!" Old Master Crawford was not willing to admit defeat. 1 "And the student surpasses the master. Luke is a better player than you. If you don't believe me, you can stay here for the night, and I'll play you until you're satisfied," Old Master Rayne said. He usually played chess alone, and Old Master Crawford rekindled his interest.

"Challenge accepted. After dinner, I'll show you who's the better player!" Old Master Crawford was determined to win.

"Let's eat," Luke reminded them.

"Right, let's have dinner. We shouldn't let the children starve." Old Master Rayne pushed himself up with the help of the table and his walking stick.

His physical condition had declined after the operation, and he could only walk with the help of a walking stick. Bianca cout of the kitchen and supported him.

Old Master Rayne patted Bianca's hand and said, "Good girl. I can walk by myself." "Lethelp you, Grandpa." Bianca insisted on helping him walk to the dining table.

The dining table was not big enough to accommodate all the guests, so the children ate at the coffee table while the adults sat around the dining table.

Seeing the happy family, Bianca told herself that she should cand visit her grandfather more often.

After dinner, Old Master Crawford decided to stay the night to play chess with Old Master Rayne.

Luke had no opinion about that. They lingered for a while more before leaving with Wanda's cross- stitch.

While in the car, Rainie asked, "Mommy, can I cto visit Grand-Aunt Wanda more often?"

Bianca turned her head to look at her daughter and said, "Of course. We'll bring you to visit Aunt Wanda whenever we're free." "Grand-Aunt Wanda's handicrafts are so pretty. She said that she'll teach me the next tI visit her," Rainie said sweetly.

"Great-Grandpa Rayne's also plays better chess than Great-Grandpa Crawford," Lanie added.

Luke smiled when he heard that. "You'd better not let him hear you say that.

Lanie immediately understood. "Yes, Daddy."

Tommy opened his eyes wide. He did not understand what his father meant. "Why shouldn't Great- Grandpa hearthat, Daddy?" "Because we have to respect our elders." Lanie gave a sensible reply.

Bianca smiled when she heard the conversation between the boys but did not say anything. She sent a message to Queenie, saying that she would go over tomorrow to deliver the cross-stitch.

The cross-stitch was about five feet long, and it was a reproduction of a classic piece featuring galloping horses. That was suitable for Jack's status and tastes.

Luke's phone started to ring.

Bianca glanced at it and saw that the call was from Jason. She knew that Jason was calling her husband about work-related matters, and such conversations would usually last for a long time. She took out the Bluetooth headset, helped him put it on his ear, and answered the call.

Luke smiled gently. He was pleased with Bianca’s care.

Bianca turned around and placed her finger over her lips, indicating that the children should not disturb their father.

The children nodded and kept quiet.

From what Luke said, Bianca could tell that there was a problem with one of the subsidiaries. She frowned. Ever since Mavis left, Luke had been lacking a capable assistant, and he had to personally attend to the matters of T Corporation's subsidiaries.

Luke was still talking when the car reached home.

The children got out of the car. Bianca opened the boot and prepared to take out the cross-stitch.

Luke cover, picked up the cross-stitch, and said, "Allow me."

Bianca nodded and let him carry it.

Jason was slightly startled. "Boss?" He asked.

"Nothing. Continue," Luke replied. The five-foot-long cross-stitch was quite heavy, but he carried it without any fuss.

Bianca walked beside him and entered the house. She pointed at the couch and said, "You can put it here for now. I'll deliver it to Dad tomorrow."

Queenie had replied to her message, saying that both of them would be at htomorrow. Bianca would take the opportunity to spend stwith them.

"Mm." Luke placed the cross-stitch on the couch.

Jason could hear Bianca's voice through the phone. Remembering that his boss was very protective of his wife, he paused for a while before asking," May I continue, Boss?" "Continue." Luke stood next to

the floor-to-ceiling window and listened to Jason's report.

Bianca went upstairs with the children and coaxed them to take a bath and go to bed.

An hour later, Tommy was the last one to fall asleep. She exited the bedroom, walked around the second floor, and noticed that Luke had not cupstairs yet, so she went downstairs.

Luke happened to have finished the call. He saw her coming down the stairs, so he went over and hugged her. "Bea."

He sounded quite helpless. Bianca lifted her head and looked at him. "Is it very troublesome?" "Yes, quite." Luke nodded. The scheduled project was delayed for no reason. The company would suffer a great loss if the delay continued.

"Is there anything that I can help with?" Luke had always helped Bianca, and Bianca had always wanted to return the favor.

Luke brushed the stray strands of long hair behind her ear. "I'll be able to handle it myself. I'll be going on a business trip tomorrow, so I can't go to Mom’s place."

Bianca thought that the matter must be quite troublesif Luke had to fly there himself. "I'll go to Mom's place myself then. Where are you going this time, and for how long? I'll go up and pack your suitcase now." "I'm going to New York. If everything goes well, I should be back in about a week," Luke said as he held her hand and went upstairs.

They entered the bedroom. Bianca went to the closet and retrieved a suitcase.

Luke frequently went on business trips, so the suitcase in the closet was almost always ready for immediate use.

Bianca checked the weather forecast in New York for the upcoming week and packed a few more sets of clothes.

"I'll put your passport in your briefcase. It'll be troublesif it's in your suitcase," she said.

Luke felt warmth in his heart when he saw that Bianca was busy because of him. "Okay."

Bianca took out Luke's passport from the safe and placed it in his briefcase. "Is there anything else you need?" She asked.

Luke did not say anything but hugged her tightly. "That's all. Thank you, Bea.

Bianca hugged him and placed her head on his muscular chest.

Both of them were usually busy with their work, but they never forgot to spend twith each other every day. Now that Luke was about to leave for a week, she felt reluctant to let him go.

Luke loosened his hug and kissed her when he saw that she did not speak. "What's wrong?" "I'll miss you if you have to leave for so many days," Bianca said truthfully. She did not hide her feelings for him.
