Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 2967

After being embraced by Luke, a rush of warmth gradually spread from behind and enveloped her whole body.

As Luca's heart found solace, her cold hands and feet grew considerably warmer.

She could not tell if it was the presence of Luke behind her that made her feel at ease, or if it was the effect of melatonin. In his embrace, she slowly drifted into a dream.

As he listened to Luca's steady breathing, Luke was unusually sleepless.

He was still thinking about what he had done last night, wondering if he had done something wrong to make Luca so upset.

He truly wished to keep her carefree, happy, and content.

Luke snuggled closer to Luca, who seemed to possess a magical effect. Just being near her allowed him to find peace and sleep soundly.

However, given the current situation, tonight was sure to be a sleepless night...

The following day, Luca woke up and blinked her eyes. It was only then that she realized she had fallen asleep last night.

She thought she would have a sleepless night, but to her surprise, Luke had easily comforted her.

Luca sat up, stretched lazily, and glanced at the empty spot beside her bed. She instinctively reached out to feel the temperature of the bed.

She did not know when this habit started. Whenever she woke up and Luke was not beside her, she would touch the spot to estimate how long he had been awake. The spot had already cooled, so Luca

assumed Luke had risen long ago.

When she thought of Nina, who had also spent the night here, she quickly got up. After freshening up, she left the bedroom.

Luke was in the opposite bedroom, attending to work. When he heard the door open, he glanced in her direction.

Luca gave him a sweet smile.

Luke lifted the corner of his lips, offering a smile in response to her. However, due to the international conference he was engaged in, his focus returned to the computer screen.

Luca knew he was busy, so she did not disturb him. She decided to check on Nina, but thinking that she might not have woken up yet, she went downstairs instead.

Nina and the children were already sitting at the dining table.

When she saw Luca coming down, Nina quickly stood up, walked over to her, and said, "Good morning, Luca."

“Good morning. Did you rest well yesterday?" asked Luca. She could not help but feel a bit guilty. She had to ask Nina to leave Percy behind and cto look after her children just because of her personal matters.

"It's not like I've never stayed here before. I had a good rest." Nina knew Luca was worried. She replied with a cheerful smile while observing Luca's face.

Luca seemed to be in good spirits, with no dark circles or signs of illness. She looked much better compared to last night.

It seemed like she had rested well.

Nina did not ask how her night had been as she did not want to unintentionally bring up anything that might make Luca upset. Then, she said, "I went to bed early yesterday, and I woke up early today. I just couldn't resist the breakfast prepared by Aunt Neile."

Luca smiled. "Then you must eat plenty."

"Oh, I definitely won't hold back. Aunt Neile's breakfast is super delicious!" replied Nina, taking Luca's hand and then releasing it as they both sat down at the dining table.

Aunt Neile cout to serve breakfast. When she heard Nina's compliments on her cooking, she happily responded, "Oh, Ms. Langdon, stop with the praise. All the dishes I make are based on Ms. Craw's recipes."

"Is that so? I kept thinking that the food you both make tastes quite similar. So, it's the srecipe! I really love the food Luca makes. Little ones, you're so lucky. I envy you," Nina said to the three kids, who were already seated and ready to eat.

"I'm really jealous of you having such delicious food every day."

Her words were slightly exaggerated, but they were true. Everyone in the dining room burst into laughter.

Luca joined in as well.

While the heaviness in her heart had not completely dissipated, Nina, with her cheerful demeanor, managed to ease sof Luca's inner sorrow.

Tommy realized that Nina was trying to lighten the mood.

He and his siblings had been surprised to see Nina downstairs after waking up. They could tell something was wrong.

They had learned a bit of what had happened to Luca and knew that she was in a bad mood. Thus, they had to behave themselves.

Hence, when Nina made her comment, Tommy invited her with a smiling face, "Ms. Nina, you can cover for meals every day. If you think it's too much trouble, you can just leave Mr. Percy and clive in our house. We'd all welcyou."

"Really? Great, I'll pack my bags when I go back today. Wait for me, Tommy. You'd better keep your word. I'm going to stay at your place from now on, and I'll enjoy Aunt Neile's cooking every day!"

Nina replied with a beaming smile on her face as she rubbed the child's nose.

These three kids were truly endearing.

If she and Percy could have smart and endearing children like them, it would be wonderful. "You're welcome," Tommy nodded and turned to look at Luca with a smile on his face.

"Alright, let's eat. It's getting late." Luca met Tommy's eyes and gently smiled.

With her deep affection for Luke and the children, how could she bear to leave?

The balance in Luca's heart seemed to tilt in a certain direction without her realizing it.

After breakfast, Nina left first.

Luca was not in a hurry to return to the office. She saw the children off to Zander's car and then headed back upstairs.

Luke was still busy with work in the bedroom.

Luca leaned against the doorframe, watched his slender fingers dance across the keyboard. It seemed that he was engaged in a conversation with someone. She did not rush inside.

After sending an email, Luke gave her a side-glance, and his gaze settled on her. "Have you had breakfast?"

"Yes, I have.” Only then did Luca enter the bedroom.

Luke picked up his cup of coffee and took a sip. Aunt Neile had prepared it and brought it upstairs for him, knowing he was busy.

Luca could not help but notice that Aunt Neile seemed to have learned sof her coffee-making techniques. The taste was similar to the coffee she prepared, but when one really delved into it deeper, it was still a little lacking.

Luke did not want to burden Luca, so he could accept this slight difference.

"Are you still busy?" asked Luca.

"No, I'm getting ready to head back to the company." Luke smiled at her. As she approached, he rose to his feet, pulled her into his arms, and planted a kiss on her fair cheek.

"Nina mentioned sthings toyesterday," said Luke.

Luca held onto his waist, resting her head on his chest. She listened to the rhythmic beating of his heart.

"Mhm." Luca did not ask, but she had a general idea of what Nina had talked to him about.

It was probably about why she had suddenly beclike that...

"Whenever there's anything on your mind, you can always talk to me. Luca, I'll always be by your side. I can bear anything, no matter what it is," Luke assured her.

Bianca used to be gentle, but when faced with challenges, she could handle them on her own. She would grit her teeth and shoulder the burden.

However, the current Luca appeared indestructible. If something happened, she would want to rely on herself, not him.

These changes left Luke feeling both frustrated and compassionate.

He wondered how many trials and tribulations she had gone through on the Island of Despair to becthe person she was today.

Though he was her husband, she seemed to silently bear the weight of everything that happened without considering sharing the burden with him.

She loved him, yet she did not want to burden him.
