Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Evan said, "Originally, this was just a small industry networking event, but I got wind of the news that

Mr. Crawford is confirmed to attend. This has made many other company's bosses take notice and

express their intention to join as well.

"So, the number of participants in this event is definitely going to be higher than other large-scale

industry events."

Luke nodded. He was already aware of this.

"There'll be a lot of people attending this event, Mr. Turner. I need you to help me with something," said

Luke.

Evan knew there must be another reason why Luke suddenly decided to attend this event. Perhaps he

had something else that needed to be done.

However, as an employee, he was not allowed to pry into the boss' privacy. "Mr. Crawford, please go

ahead.”

"I need you to gather information about every herbalist and pharmaceutical vendor at the conference.

Find out what herbs they have on their sales lists," said Luke.

Evan thought Luke would assign him a challenging task, but he did not expect it to be this...

Typically, when herbal merchants and farmers participated in such industry networking events, they

would have a detailed list of the medicinal herbs they were offering for sale.

As soon as someone approached their booth, they would hand out these lists to everyone. They aimed

to attract more business opportunities.

Therefore, the task Luke gave him was not difficult.

"Yes, sir." Evan immediately agreed. He could not refuse it anyway since it was a task assigned by the

boss.

Luke saw him agree readily and reminded him, "I'm not just interested in the herbs openly sold by

these merchants but also those they keep hidden. If you can, find out about those too."

Only now did Evan realize that Luke's task was not as simple as he thought.

To know what treasures the merchants had, he would need to converse with them.

There would be many booths at the industry networking event, teeming with people inside and out.

He would have to engage in conversations, exchange business cards, and probe them for information.

Evan suddenly felt the pressure, but pressure brought motivation. This was the first task assigned by

Luke, and he attached great importance to its outcome. He had to do it well.

"Mr. Crawford, rest assured. Although I don't know what herbs you're interested in, I'll handle it well,"

promised Evan.

If he could not handle such a small task well, there was no point in competing for the inheritance rights

with the other heirs of the Turner family.

Everything in the Turner family must belong to him and no one else...

Evan secretly swore to himself.

As Evan accepted the task, Luke knew it was not something he could do alone. Hence, he added,

"Don't worry, I'll send someone to help. You'll only have to follow their lead and gather information from

the corresponding merchants."

"Yes, sir." Evan let out a sigh of relief when he heard that someone would assist him.

Luca listened to their conversation without saying a word.

She knew Luke had a different purpose in assigning this task to Evan.

She had mentioned Shanks before she took her nap.

Shanks had left the Island of Despair now. Even though they did not know if he was in X City or A City,

there must be a reason why Abel was appearing at this networking event.

They did not know why Abel would show up here, but at least they had a direction to follow now. No

matter how they looked at it, it was not a waste of effort.

Luke talked with Evan again.

Evan studied abroad, so they had some common topics. Luke also discussed matters about the Turner

family with Evan.

Evan expressed his intentions.

There was a reason why he chose to apply for the general manager position at Watson.

Luke was influential, and T Corporation was also powerful.

Being a senior executive at Watson meant there would be a chance to build a relationship with Luke.

The Turner family's companies would have more opportunities for cooperation in the future.

This was his biggest advantage when facing his competitors.

Having the opportunity to establish stable cooperation with T Corporation was equivalent to telling

others that this was a business opportunity.

Luke listened to him and also indicated that if he could manage the Turner family's companies in the

future, there might indeed be opportunities for cooperation.

Evan was very excited. He raised his glass and toasted Luke with it. He almost finished his drink in one

gulp.

Luke also took a hearty swig of his drink when he saw that.

Luke and Evan talked about many things when they were having the meal. Just like that, they finished

a bottle of wine.

Of course, most of the time, it was Evan toasting Luke. The remaining part was Luke responding to

Evan's toasts.

However, this amount of alcohol was nothing for them.

After the meal, Luke paid the bill.

After that, the three of them got into Warren's car together. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

Luke said to Warren, "Take us back to the Crawfords' ancestral home. You can go back to the hotel

after that."

"Yes, sir," replied Warren. When he was about to drive, he noticed that Evan, who was sitting in the

front passenger seat, had not fastened his seatbelt. Thus, he reminded him, "Mr. Turner, please fasten

your seatbelt."

Evan glanced down and realized he had not fastened his seatbelt. He smiled awkwardly and said, "I

got a bit carried away with the drinking. Thanks for reminding me."

Warren nodded.

After Evan fastened his seatbelt, Warren drove off. He first took Luke and Luca back to the Crawfords'

ancestral home before leaving.

There were still people in the car, so Luke asked Warren to stop at the gate.

After Luke and Luca got out of the car, they walked hand-in-hand toward the house.

It was a summer night. The breeze gently swept away the daytime heat, bringing a hint of coolness.

However, Luke had been drinking, and the alcohol fermenting in his body still made him feel a bit warm.

He unbuttoned the top two buttons with one hand.

"Feeling hot?" Luca understood why he did that. After all, he had just been drinking high-proof liquor

with Evan.

Even though both of them had a good tolerance for alcohol, strong liquor would definitely make one

feel hot.

"Yeah, a bit," admitted Luke. There was no need to pretend in front of her. He straightforwardly said,

"The alcohol content of the liquor was too high."

"Why did you choose it, then? Do you know drinking this type of liquor can easily upset your stomach?"

asked Luca as she looked at the fine beads of sweat on his forehead. She stopped walking and wiped

them away for him.

The liquor was ordered by Luke. If he did not want to drink such strong liquor, he could have chosen

another type of liquor.

There were plenty of other options in the restaurant.

"I didn't wish to order it either. It's just that Evan loves this kind of liquor," explained Luke, enjoying her

gentle touch while also winking at her.

Luca's stray hair on the side of her ear danced in the wind before landing on her cheek. Luke lifted his

hand and tucked the stray hair behind her ear.

"The restaurant didn't have that kind of liquor, so I had Warren specifically buy it from the supermarket

and bring it to the restaurant."

"You even found out what kind of liquor he likes..." Luca was a bit surprised. The Crawford family did

not need to please the Turner family at all. Hence, she found Luke's behavior a little surprising.
