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

Tina could not help but complain in her heart that men were truly cruel creatures.

They could just leave without any hesitation.

The more they showed their love for a city, the more heartless they were when they had to leave.

Tina's eyes teared a little when she thought of what Amur had said about A City.

Her infatuation was only from her first impression of him when he saved her. It was only after that she got to know

him that she realized how well their values aligned.

That was when she fell in love with that handsome face.

In the end, it was just her alone who was hurting. Oh, the irony...

Tina thought about Amur and was in a trance as she took a sip of coffee. Coffee without a little sugar was bitter, but

it was nothing compared to the bitterness she felt in her heart...

She was bitter about not having the chance to express her love.

"Tina?" Luca was worried when she saw her drinking her coffee in a trance.

Tina snapped out of it and forced a smile. "Dr. Craw, what's wrong?"

"Are you okay?" Luca asked softly.

"I'm fine. Nothing to worry about." Tina smiled and shook her head. "You know that I'm optimistic. These negative

emotions will soon pass. There'll be nothing left but a tiny sense of regret."

Luca was stunned. If others had any regrets, they could solve the problem with a phone call.

However, she could not even call Amur to talk about her regrets because Amur had already returned to the Island

of Despair, where they were not allowed to bring cell phones.

She could not contact Amur and could only wait for Amur to contact her.

"Dr. Craw, I'm fine..." Tina could not stand the pity in Luca's eyes, so she quickly stood up and took a deep breath as

she paced around. "How can a relationship that hasn't even started hurt me? No one will believe it. Don't you think

so?"

"Maybe..." Luca shook her head. She had used such methods to numb her feelings.

It still did not relieve her pain effectively.

Tina left in a hurry after lunch.

Luca had a cold and did not want to risk it getting worse, so Aunt Neile sent Tina off.

Tommy looked at Luca and asked softly, "Ms. Luca, why does Aunt Tina look so unhappy?"

"Yeah..." Luca smiled helplessly. Even the child could see that Tina's happiness was a mask that hid her true

feelings.

"Why is she upset? Also, why does she force herself to laugh when she's upset? I pout when I'm upset..." Tommy

asked another series of questions.

Luca did not know how to explain Tina's situation to him.

'They love each other but can't be together... Or does she regret not being able to express her love?'

Nevertheless, the kids would not understand.

Lanie noticed that she seemed distressed, so he stepped in and said, "Not only do you like to pout, but you're a little

crybaby as well."

"I'm not! I just pout. The TV told me that a man should never shed his tears. Why would I cry?" Tommy was

distracted by Lanie and waved his hand in protest.

"You're the biggest crybaby in this home." Lanie's tease successfully diverted Tommy's attention.

Aunt Neile returned from outside the house. She could not help but rub her hands because of the cold weather. "It's

almost New Year's. The weather is getting colder and colder."

"Yeah, the weather is the coldest during New Year's," Luca agreed.

"Ms. Craw, are you going to prepare New Year's goods?" Aunt Neile asked. In two weeks, it would be New Year's

Eve.

Luca was stunned. 'New Year's goods?'

The madam of the family was usually the one who purchased New Year's goods. She was not the madam, so she

said, "You should ask Mr. Crawford about this. He should know a little better than me since I've been abroad. We

celebrate New Year's differently than in Russia."

Aunt Neile nodded and said nothing more.

After lunch, Luca took another round of medicine under Tommy's watchful eyes.

She felt drowsy almost immediately and kept yawning. She was even tearing a little.

"Ms. Luca, go take a nap if you're sleepy," Rainie, who was sitting on the other sofa, said.

"What about you?" Luca looked at Rainie. Lanie and Tommy went back upstairs to read after lunch, leaving Rainie

alone in the living room with her.

"Lanie and Tommy are both reading. They'll go take a nap if they're tired," Rainie said. Although she also liked to

read, she was not as addicted to reading as Lanie.

"Okay, let's go take a nap, then." Luca stood up and walked up the stairs.

Rainie followed behind her, and they slowly walked up to the second floor.

Luca did not head to her bedroom immediately. Instead, she walked to Lanie's bedroom, knocked on the door,

looked at the two children who were seriously reading books, and reminded them, "It's nap time. Take a break from

reading and go to sleep. Give your eyes a rest."

"Okay, Ms. Luca." Lanie put away his book obediently.

Tommy followed suit and looked at Luca. "Ms. Luca, can I take a nap here with Lanie?"

"Of course. Make sure you're tucked in tight so you don't catch a cold." After Luca finished speaking, she watched

as the kids climbed into the bed.

They tucked themselves in after they laid down.

Luca smiled, closed the door for them, and looked at Rainie, who was standing not far away.

She intended to keep a distance from the children so she did not think too much of it. She said, "Rainie, you should

also take your nap."

"Okay, Ms. Luca." Rainie walked back to her bedroom and closed the door.

Luca let out a sigh of relief and went to her bedroom.

After she caught a cold and fever, she felt that her strength had yet to recover. It seemed like a minor illness could

also seriously affect various mechanisms of her body.

Luca slept for almost an afternoon.

When she woke up, she glanced at the time with a blank expression.

She thought that it was a short nap but saw that it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon when she fixed

her eyes on the time on the phone.

There were even unread messages.

Luca hurriedly opened them. They were both from Luke.

He was checking in on her.

Luca replied to him. [I'm fine. I took some medicine and slept until now...]

[Mm, I see.] Luke replied almost in seconds.

Luca did not know what to reply to him. After all, it was not suitable for her to bring up topics that were too

intimate. She put down the phone, put her hands under her chin, and stared at the snow outside the window in a

daze.

She thought of what Aunt Neile said about getting some goods to prepare for New Year's.

In the previous years, she used to take the kids to the department store to buy new clothes and ask Luke to

accompany her to buy some goods.

To save Luke's time, she would always prepare a list and buy everything all at once so that Luke had more time to

deal with work.
