Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

After Nina sighed in her heart, she opened the bedroom door and walked out.

She checked in on the children one by one. They were all fast asleep, not awakened by their moving about.

Nina confirmed that they had not rolled out of bed, then closed the door and shook her head.

'How could Luca have woken the children up when she was so careful all throughout?'

She returned to Luca's bedroom, closed the door, and said, "Don't worry, Lanie and the others are sound asleep.

They didn't roll off the bed."

Luca opened her eyes and looked at Nina. A slight smile appeared on her face. She knew that Nina was going to

stay here tonight and did not want to turn her kind gesture down. She said, "I have a new blanket in my closet. If

you want to sleep here, you can share the bed with me as long as you're okay with the smell of blood on me."

"I don't mind it, but I'm not going to sleep here tonight. I'm afraid that I'll accidentally hurt you when I'm asleep. I'll

sleep on the sofa. The sofa in your bedroom is the right size," Nina said. She opened Luca's closet and took out the

blanket.

Luca did not say anything. She knew that Nina wanted to stay only because she was worried about her.

"Thank you, Nina," she said.

"At times like these, you don't have to be polite with me. Rest early. You look very weak. You've lost so much blood.

I'm sure you're not feeling the best," Nina stepped forward and touched Luca's forehead. She was relieved to find

that Luca did not have a fever.

"Mm, good night." Luca closed her eyes again. Nina was right. She had lost too much blood and was not doing well.

Nina watched her close her eyes and left a small night light on so that she could check in on her in the middle of the

night.

The next day.

When Luca opened her eyes, the sun was up.

The sun rose later in winter. She glanced out the window and knew that she had woken up late.

She got up in a hurry and accidentally tugged on the wound. She could not help but frown. She was only thinking

about preparing breakfast for the kids and forgot that she was injured...

Luca glanced at the bedroom. Nina was not there.

She got out of bed and lifted her nightdress in front of the full-length mirror. Looking at the gauze, she did not seem

to have bled. The bleeding had probably stopped after she stitched her wound.

Luca carefully walked to the dresser, opened the drawer, took out the gauze and powder, and walked into the

bathroom.

She carefully undid the gauze and glanced at the sutured wound. It was covered with scabs and looked like a

centipede.

She was used to this kind of wound. She picked up a towel and soaked it in some hot water. She wrung it dry and

wiped off the blood around the wound before slowly wiping the rest of her body as well.

She was used to these injuries from her days on the Island of Despair. Even though it slowed down her movements,

she could handle everything herself.

After Luca wiped herself, she felt that the smell of blood on her body was fainter. She then sprinkled medicinal

powder on the wound and wrapped it with gauze again.

She had to go to the office, so she deliberately wrapped an extra layer of gauze around the wound before she

changed into her work clothes.

After she was done, Luca cleaned up a little and slowly walked downstairs.

At this moment, Nina was going upstairs with her breakfast. She bumped into Luca in the middle of the stairs and

exclaimed, "Why did you get out of bed?"

"I'm much better now. I'll be okay," Luca said. She knew that Nina had been busy since early in the morning when

she saw the breakfast that Nina prepared for her.

“Still, you shouldn't have gotten out of bed in case..." She looked back and made sure the maid was not in the living

room before she whispered, "What if the wound opens?"

Luca shook her head and explained while holding onto the handrail of the stairs. "I took a look at the wound just

now. It didn't open and has started to scab. Don't worry..."

Nina looked at her. Luca's face and lips were pale, but other than that, she looked like a normal person in office

attire. She asked, "Your clothes... You're going to work?"

"Yeah, there's a lot of work that I need to attend to. I have no choice..." Luca said helplessly. She did not want to ask

for time off. Luke would know if she did.

Although she could say she was sick, she was unwilling to do that for fear that he would investigate.

Nina sighed and said, "Wait a minute."

She went downstairs, put her breakfast on the table in the dining room, and walked up the stairs again. She

reached out to support her. "Come on, I'll help you downstairs."

"I'm not that weak." Luca pursed her lips and smiled but still put her hand in Nina's.

"I know you're not weak after seeing what you did yesterday. You almost scared me to death," Nina said while

recalling the wound on Luca's body. Without any anesthesia, Luca sutured her wound herself to stop the bleeding.

Nina was very frightened. She did not get a good sleep last night and woke up several times to check on Luca. She

was afraid that something would happen to her.

"Sorry..." Luca was a little embarrassed.

"Don't apologize. Just make sure that you'll be careful," Nina told her to be careful.

The maid came out of the kitchen, saw them, and asked, "Ms. Craw, what's the matter with you?"

"I'm not feeling well. It's fine," Luca explained to her after successfully stepping down from the last step.

"Not feeling well? Do you want me to call the family doctor?" the maid asked quickly.

Luca shook her head.

Nina helped her and said to the maid, "No, she just caught a cold and had a fever last night. Didn't I tell you all

about it? Her fever subsided in the middle of the night."

The maid looked at Luca's still pale face and nodded. "I'll go upstairs to clean up the rooms now."

"Okay. By the way, you don't need to clean my bedroom," Luca said while looking at Nina.

Nina winked at her, and the two walked into the dining room together.

"Have the kids gone to school?" Luca looked at the empty dining room. There were no children in the living room

either.

"Yeah, they were picked up by Zander a while ago. Don't worry, I told them you got a cold so you needed to rest.

You were deeply asleep and didn't wake up even when Lanie and the others stood at the door to confirm that you

were in your room," Nina said. She lied to everyone on Luca's behalf because she knew that Luca did not want

others to know what had happened last night.

"Thank you, Nina," Luca said.

"You don't need to thank me. If you want to thank me, teach me how to cook once you've recovered. The maid

hadn't come then, so I decided to prepare breakfast myself. But the kids all disliked what I made. They still prefer

your cooking. In the end, I had no choice but to ask them to call the maid, so the maid bought them breakfast from

outside. They ate before they went to school,” Nina said while placing a plate in her In front of Luca. "Eat it. The

maid made it. It's not bad.”

Luca smiled and said, "Thank you."
