Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Old Master Mallory heard that Old Master Crawford had long kicked out another daughter-in-law. Now, he was the only one in the big Crawford Manor, but he did not feel lonely. Instead, he was enjoying his time.

Old Master Mallory thought that maybe if Karen moved out too, he could be at peace without her bothering him. Hence, he decided to take this opportunity to ask Karen to move out.

His idea of living together as a big family had undergone a change over time due to the constant whirlwind of affairs within the family.

Karen tightly pursed her lips as she watched Old Master Mallory leave from behind. Even when Mr. Bennet returned, she still stood there with a defiant look.

Mr. Bennet sighed and said, "Madam, you should rest early."

"How can I rest?" Karen glared at him, thinking about the humiliation she endured at Crawford Manor and the incident with Nina.

Even though she slapped that woman's face, she felt embarrassed to be escorted out of the neighborhood by the security team. She was even blacklisted.

Upon returning home, she got scolded by Old Master Mallory. He was even making her apologize to the Crawford family tomorrow and move out immediately.

Karen wanted to vent her anger on Mr. Bennet, but considering he was close to Old Master Mallory, it would be like venting on the old master himself. She dared not to do so...

It was not that she did not have the guts, but Pierre's current situation required Old Master Mallory's involvement. Offending the old master would not only harm her but also bring misfortune to Pierre.

"Madam, given the circumstances, you can only follow Old Master Mallory's arrangements. The villa he assigned for you on Blossom Avenue is ready with the necessary items. You only have to pack some clothes, jewelry, and cosmetics.

"If you find it troublesome, the maid will help you tomorrow," said Mr. Bennet. He understood that Karen was angry, but he was helpless about it.

This matter made Old Master Mallory even angrier, as he had lost face in front of his old friends.

Ever since Pierre provoked Luke, Old Master Mallory had only been losing face in front of Old Master Crawford. Despite the cheerful banter among old friends, there was still a sense of rivalry.

Old Master Mallory had never managed to regain his dignity, and Karen had even repeatedly tarnished his reputation.

Therefore, Mr. Bennet could understand the old master's anger and could not speak up for Karen.

"Hmph, Blossom Avenue? Looks like Old Master Mallory can't wait for me to get as far away as possible!" Karen narrowed her eyes menacingly.

The villa on Blossom Avenue was not bad, but it was far from Mallory Manor.

Even though both were in A City, driving from Mallory Manor to the villa on Blossom Avenue would take at least 40 minutes. Karen knew well what those 40 minutes meant.

If it were not for the fear of gossip, Old Master Mallory might have arranged for her to stay on the outskirts.

"Please don't misunderstand, Madam. The villa on Blossom Avenue is newly renovated, and the style is to your liking. He thought you'd be happier living there. That's why he made this arrangement," Mr. Bennet spoke up for the old master.

Karen refused to believe what he said. She let out a cold snort and replied, "Summon my maid."

At this time, the maid had already finished work for the day, but for the convenience of taking care of the house, both the maid and the butler stayed here.

As Mr. Bennet watched Karen go upstairs, he shook his head helplessly. She was quite a handful...

"Yes, Madam." Even though he thought she was troublesome, Mr. Bennet could not openly criticize her actions.

Even in front of Old Master Mallory, he had to be cautious when serving him.

Luke, done with his tasks at T Corporation, returned to the villa. It was already midnight.

The lights were still on in the villa. He knew it was Luca who left them on for him, a gesture that had never changed in the past.

Whenever he returned late, she would keep the lights on.

Luke felt a warm sensation in his chest. He wished he could rush to Luca's side immediately and hold her in his arms, easing the tiredness in his body. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

As he entered the living room, he noticed Nina sitting on the couch. He could not help but raise an eyebrow and ask, "You're not asleep at this hour?"

When Luca planned for Nina to stay here, she had informed him in advance, so her presence was not surprising. What surprised him was that it was already midnight, and Nina was still sitting in the living room.

"Luca said you were working overtime, and I was waiting for you specifically," Nina replied in a soft voice. It was to accommodate the swelling on her face and to avoid waking up anyone upstairs.

Even though the soundproofing in the villa was excellent, she was currently a guest. That was why she was mindful of such things.

She would try not to cause trouble.

"Is there something you want to talk about?" Luke adjusted his tie. Even though she had not brought up a topic yet, he had a general idea of what she might say.

"Please don't tell Percy about this," answered Nina.

Luke nodded. He had no intention of getting involved in women's affairs.

He took Nina in because he promised Percy. As long as Nina could stay peacefully here while Percy was on his business trip, other matters were not his concern.

His promise was within Nina's expectations, and she continued, "Does Luca have another identity?"

"No," Luke denied. Deep down, he could not help but wonder if the kids accidentally let something slip, leading to Nina's suspicion.

"I have this inexplicable sense of familiarity with her. If you know anything, you can tell me. I promise I won't tell anyone about it." Nina sounded like she wanted to know something.

"There's nothing like that. It's getting late. Rest early." Luke glanced at the time. It was 12:05 in the morning. He quickly took a shower, and by 12:30, he should be able to fall asleep with Luca in his arms.

He cherished the time spent sleeping with her.

Luke ended the conversation, and Nina slightly parted her lips, as though she had something to say. However, she hesitated. As she watched him make his way up the stairs, she shook her head

helplessly and headed upstairs too.

When they reached the second floor, they went to different rooms—one on the left and one on the right.

After Luke finished taking a shower in the bedroom across the room, he returned to the master bedroom. He initially did not want to disturb Luca, but she was a light sleeper. The moment he got into bed, she woke up before he could lie down.

"Luke?" Luca's voice carried a hint of drowsiness and sleepiness.

"Yes, it's me. Go back to sleep." Luke lay down, pulling her into his arms.

Luca found a comfortable sleeping position in his arms and closed her eyes. Then, she heard him ask, "Did the kids accidentally spill the beans in front of Nina today?"

"What do you mean by spilling the beans?" Luca, feeling drowsy, did not immediately grasp the situation. After asking for clarification, she understood what Luke meant and added, "The kids are clever. They didn't say anything."
