Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

"Yes." Luke nodded. He knew Old Master Crawford wanted to see photos of Nyla. He slowly pulled out his phone, "It's a girl, and she looks a lot like Luca."

"There must be photos. Show me." Old Master Crawford's eyes sparkled with excitement.

To him, having many children was a sign of a flourishing family.

Zachary only had two children. Old Master Crawford felt it was a little unfortunate for him. However, Luke and Luca had brought good news now. They had already blessed him with three adorable greatgrandkids.

After learning about the existence of the fourth child, Old Master Crawford was extremely excited. He had been wanting to ask about the fourth child, but Luke had been busy. That was why he had not seen the photos yet.

"Yes." Luke opened the photo album and handed his phone to the old master.

After Old Master Crawford took the phone from him, he looked at the photos. He felt his vision turn slightly blurry. He picked up the reading glasses beside him and wore them. He could finally see Nyla's appearance clearly.

"Oh dear, such a beautiful child. She's carved from the same mold as her mother. What a lovely child. Once those features fully develop, she's going to be a real beauty, just like Rainie."

Old Master Crawford exclaimed joyfully, gently stroking the phone screen as though he was caressing the child.

Luke nodded, agreeing with what he said.

Their sons looked like him, and their daughters looked like her.

While people often said that sons resembled their mothers, their daughters looked like their mother and their sons looked like him. All four children followed this pattern.

"Such a gorgeous child. Even though she takes after her mother, her nose is just like ours. It's tall and straight." Old Master Crawford, looking at the side profile of the child in the photo, noticed her nose and could not help but smile.

Luke walked behind Old Master Crawford and looked at the photo of the child when he heard this.

He nodded in agreement.

Previously, he had only focused on the child's overall appearance without paying attention to these details. Now, when he looked at the photos closely, Nyla's nose did indeed resemble the Crawford family's.

"Grandpa, I'll do everything in my power to bring this child back," Luke said in a low voice, which sounded like a promise.

"Yes, make sure to bring our Crawford family's child back. This child didn't grow up in our family but in that kind of environment. It must've been tough for her..." Old Master Crawford's heart could not help but ache at the thought of Luke's fourth child growing up on the Island of Despair.

A child would likely be frightened growing up in such an environment.

As he handed Luke's phone back to him, Old Master Crawford added, "Ensure the child's safety when you're doing things. We must be careful since we know the child is under the other party's control. Got it?"

"Yes, I understand." Luke's eyes slightly darkened as he looked at the child's smiling face in the photo.

He had to ensure the child's safety.

It would be much more difficult, but regardless of the challenges, he had to guarantee the child's safety.

"I hope you bring the child back soon and reunite the family." Old Master Crawford let out a sigh.

Luke remained silent. His eyes showed even more determination.

He had to be extra cautious, but he also needed to act quickly. Only by fully mastering the Island of Despair could he rescue the child.

The Crawford family was enjoying a peaceful atmosphere. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

On the other hand, the Mallory family was in a bit of turmoil.

Old Master Mallory sat in the living room, waiting for news. He did not get the information he was waiting for, and Karen even came back.

As he watched Karen enter in a flurry, Old Master Mallory put a dull expression on his face. "Why are you here at this hour?"

Karen was stunned for a moment. She had just moved out today, and Old Master Mallory was already asking her such a question?

This place had been her home for over 30 years. After being forced to move out for just half a day, Old Master Mallory was questioning why she had come over?

Did moving out for half a day mean she was not part of the Mallory family anymore? Was she no longer his daughter-in-law?

What was Old Master Mallory trying to say?

"Father, why didn't you tell me about it?" Karen did not have time to ask him what he meant by that sentence. Instead, she questioned Old Master Mallory about why he had not informed her that Pierre

would be released today.

"What's the big deal? He's still in that hospital. What's the fuss about a manageable injury?" asked Old Master Mallory. Pierre was officially released today, so he no longer needed to stay in the hospital's detainment ward.

However, considering the superior medical standards at Central Hospital, Old Master Mallory had arranged for him to be moved there.

After Pierre was sent out of the detainment ward, he was taken to the VIP ward at Central Hospital to avoid unnecessary hassle.

"Of course, this is a big deal. Pierre leaving the detainment ward means everything's resolved, no?" Karen stamped her foot. She affirmed that Pierre was fine when the old master said so.

If she had known about this earlier, she would have gone to the hospital to wait for Pierre to come out of the detainment ward.

"Things are resolved, but because of you, the Mallory family's reputation has been tarnished," criticized Old Master Mallory.

It was only after leaving Crawford Manor today that he learned Karen had slapped Silas across his face, which meant he would not be able to clarify those online reports to the journalists.

The news of Karen's past relationships was still online.

While such reports would be overshadowed by subsequent inquiries into other celebrities, clarification was still necessary. The sooner it was done, the better.

If the clarification came much later, it would not only be hard to believe, but it would also stir up memories among the public.

It would repeatedly deepen their impression of the matter, which would not be beneficial for the Mallory family.

If Karen had not slapped Silas, the news could have been clarified today. However, they had to wait a few more days just because she could not control her actions.

Old Master Mallory felt upset at the thought of this.

Karen wanted to argue, but considering what happened today and Pierre's matter, she felt it was more prudent to stay silent for now. She awkwardly asked, "Father, is Pierre out now?"

“The lawyer will only handle the procedures at five o'clock. How could it be so fast?" The phone on the table rang as soon as Old Master Mallory finished his sentence.

Old Master Mallory did not answer but instead gave a meaningful look to Mr. Bennet.

Mr. Bennet picked up the phone. "Hello."

"Yes, yes. Okay, I got it. Thank you."

After ending the call, Mr. Bennet informed Old Master Mallory, "Old Master Mallory, Master Pierre has been sent out of the detainment ward. As per your arrangement, he has been moved into the VIP ward."

"Pierre is out!" Karen's heart was filled with joy. Before Old Master Mallory could speak, the words rushed out of her mouth.

Mr. Bennet nodded.

"I'm heading to the hospital now." Karen thought Pierre must have endured a lot during his time in the detainment ward. She felt sorry for him and wanted to check on him immediately.

Mr. Bennet watched Karen leave and subconsciously shot a glance at Old Master Mallory.

The old master's face was terribly gloomy.

After Karen left, Old Master Mallory finally uttered a few words. It was as though he was filled with endless regret and helplessness. "I chose her as a wife for Daryl, but in the end, I made the wrong choice."
