Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle



Chapter 3357 Do You Have A Death Wish Or Something

When Luca felt like she was about to suffocate, Luke finally released her lips.

His gaze burned intensely, his deep eyes locked onto her red lips.

Luca could clearly sense what he was thinking. The desire in Luke's eyes was so overwhelming it felt as though it would completely consume her. She trembled slightly, her own body betraying her, longing to be devoured by him.

"Luca," Luke murmured huskily, his voice thick with desire.

Luca softly responded with a faint hum. Just then, Luke's phone rang. It was his alarm. Luke helplessly silenced it.

Clarity returned to Luca's gaze. "Do you have a meeting to attend?"

She knew full well that it was usually for something important whenever Luke set an alarm. An important meeting meant it could not be postponed.

Luca let out a chuckle.

No wonder Luke had not carried her straight to the lounge. He had something pressing to attend to.

Luke heard her laughter and replied helplessly, "I really don't want to."

Luca shook her head and told him that work had to come first. "You'd better go to your meeting. Also, I need to go to X City for a while. Can you come up with a reason for me to take leave from Watson?"Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

She truly could not think of an excuse herself.

If her identity was revealed, taking leave would not be an issue. However, with her identity still under wraps now, she had no special privileges to fall back on.

Luke pondered for a moment before saying, "Just put in your request. I'll take care of the rest."

Luca nodded.

At that moment, there was a knock on the office door.

Luke's expression darkened slightly. "What is it?"

Jason's voice came through from outside. "Boss, it's time for the meeting."

Luca's smile deepened.

Luke felt helpless, already thinking about how he wished Luca had come by an hour earlier. He cupped her face in his hands.

Luca gently reminded him, "You have a meeting to attend."

"I know," rasped Luke with his hoarse voice. He pressed a warm kiss to her forehead. It was just a light touch, but it carried endless affection. The heat of his lips lingered on her skin, making her cheeks flush even redder.

"Go to your meeting." Luca gave him a gentle push.

Luke replied in a low voice, "Just one more kiss." Then, his lips found her forehead again.

Luca smiled, lightly tapping his shoulder.

The knocking on the door came again. Luke opened the door with a dark expression.

Jason stood nervously at the door. When he saw the look on Luke's face, he froze for a moment before stammering an apology. "Boss, I'm sorry, but it's time for the meeting..."

Without saying a word, Luke strode toward the elevators, still wearing a grim expression on his face.

Jason noticed his boss was empty-handed and could not help but think of one phrase, " Beauty brings ruin."

Luca had cried, and now, Luke had forgotten to even grab his laptop before heading to the meeting.

Jason glanced back into the office at Luca, and suddenly, it clicked. It was not just tears, there must have been something more.

"Uh, Dr. Craw, I'll just grab the boss' laptop," said Jason.

Luca nodded. As she realized Jason might have pieced together something, she left with reddened cheeks.

Jason pursed his lips, grabbed Luke's laptop, and followed after him.

After learning about Luke's plan, the anxiety in Luca's heart disappeared entirely. She left T Corporation and quickly hailed a cab, heading straight for the high-speed rail station.

While in the cab, she booked the next train ticket to X City.

Luca arrived at X City's high-speed rail station five hours later. Just as she stepped outside, Luke called.

"Have you arrived in X City?" asked Luke with concern.

"I just left the station. Did you finish your meeting?" Luca glanced at the time, realizing the meeting had lasted over four hours.

"Yes, it's done. Be careful over there. I've sent Gale to assist you. If anything happens, just call him. He'll handle it," replied Luke. He wanted to be there himself, but with the bidding project in A City starting soon, he had to stay.

Even though Jack was not directly involved in the bidding, he had made it clear that T Corporation securing the project would benefit not only the company's growth but also A

City's development.

"Got it," said Luca. Her thoughts wandered back to the villa. She could not help but feel uneasy about Allison and Sophian being there.

It was not that she did not trust Luke, but she knew Sophian might resort to any means to get into his bed.

Luke would not let it happen, of course, but dealing with her relentless attempts would still be exhausting.

Sensing her worries, Luke reassured her, "I won't go back to the villa while you're away. I plan to stay in the office for now. Focus on your task. We'll resolve this issue together."

They would deal with the Island of Despair and rescue their precious daughter.

"Okay, I trust you," said Luca as she flagged down another cab.

Once inside, she added, "I'm in a cab now. I'll be there in about ten minutes."

Her words implied she would soon arrive at the base.

"Got it. Let me know when you arrive. I have a small meeting to attend here, but don't worry, I'll stay at the office until you're back," promised Luke, emphasizing his

commitment to her.

"Alright, I'll handle everything as quickly as I can." Luca ended the call with a smile playing

on her lips.

Ten minutes later, the cab pulled up to her destination.

After getting out, she made her way through several turns and finally arrived at the entrance

of the base.

She was slightly surprised by what she saw. In front of her stood a three-story villa with a

garden, looking like a standalone residence.

When had the base moved to a place like this?

Why did she not know about this?

Feeling puzzled, Luca pressed the doorbell.

"Who is it?" There came a low, raspy voice from the other side.

"It's Ivana," replied Luca.

"A moment, please," replied the person. After a while, the door opened.

The man who opened it had ethnic features. His body was broad and muscular. He was

clearly a Russian.

He sized Luca up, and his gaze gradually turned lecherous.

Luca snapped impatiently, "Seen enough?"

"Where's your ID?" asked the man. He clearly did not recognize her.

Luca frowned. ID?

She had come in such a rush that she had not brought anything.

"I didn't bring it," answered Luca.

"No ID?" The man's expression hardened as he blocked the doorway. "No ID, no entry."

A flicker of irritation crossed Luca's eyes. "I was sent by Abel to assist Mr. Shanks with his experiments. I didn't bring my ID because of the urgency, and I'm based in A City, so it's impossible to get it now. If you doubt me, just inform Mr. Shanks that Ivana was sent to help with his experiments. Then you'll know if I'm lying."

"How do I know this isn't some trick? You're not welcome here. Leave," the man replied

coldly.

Luca's patience wore thin, and she stepped forward.

The man's eyes widened. His gaze darkened with a clear warning. If she took another step,

he would not hesitate to act. "Lady, you don't get it, do you? Do you have a death wish or

something?"
