Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 282 Some Men Are Ridiculously Elegant...

Leia placed the flask of chicken soup on the table and called out gently, ’ Mr. Crawford."

Her mother had said that the fastest way to a man's heart was through his stomach.

Of course, Leia did not know how to fry an egg, let alone make chicken soup. However, Queenie, her adopted mother, was a good cook.

Luke turned around. The female celebrity was dazzled by his impeccable facial features.

Undeniably, Luke was a very handsome man. He was handsome not only because of his sculpted face but also because of his mature character.

Luke might look young, but he carried the dominating and enigmatic deportment of a king.

That must have been the culmination of many years of experience in the harsh battlefield of the business world.

'Mr. Crawford, I'd like to discuss with you about our collaboration. Right, I've also brought some chicken soup for you. I hope you'll like it," Leia said.

Luke frowned slightly. "Thank you, Ms. Norman. I'm sorry, I've already had breakfast, so you shouldn't have done so much for me. Mr. Doyle, my assistant, will contact you about the details for our collaboration. You don't have to worry," he said coldly.

When she saw that Luke was acting so coldly toward her, Leia felt uncomfortable as though she had a bone stuck in her throat.

She glanced at the stacks of documents on Luke's table and cautiously asked, "Did I disturb your work, Mr. Crawford?"

Leia would sometimes feel inferior about her status, despite her father being an important politician. After all, she was only a girl who was raised in an orphanage, and not Jack and Queenie's birth daughter.

There was a possibility that their birth daughter might be alive, and she would one day return to replace Leia's position in the family.

She needed to find some insurance for the rest of her life, in case the real Ms. Norman returned to the family. Even if Jack and Queenie would abandon her in the future, she would still be able to enjoy the high life without any worries.

So what if Luke had two children?

Many beautiful and famous female celebrities married wealthy husbands, even though they made enough money to support themselves.

Leia thought that it was a wise decision.

A woman's youth and beauty could only last for so long.

Many young talents entered the industry every year. Once a celebrity grew old, how would they compete against those who were younger and more beautiful?

It was indeed a prudent choice to get hitched to a capable and wealthy man at the peak of her career.

The man in front of her checked every box in her list of requirements.

However, the man was too enigmatic. She could not understand him. Was it because he was born aloof, or was he nurtured to behave that way?

Luke seemed to have seen Bianca from Leia's dejected expression. He seemed to have understood something...

"No." His icy voice seemed to have warmed up by a little.

Leia was ecstatic when she heard that his voice had become gentler. Her gaze was brimming with admiration. "Mr. Crawford, my father has been talking about you since that dinner. I wonder if you would be free to come over to visit our house?" She ventured.

Luke remained indifferent. "I've been busy recently. When I have less work, I will find the time to may Mr. Norman a visit." 2

Leia smiled sweetly as though honey dripped from her lips. She handed a name card to Luke. "That decides it. You can call me anytime you're free, Mr. Crawford. This is my personal number."

Luke took the name card without showing any expression.

Leia felt even happier, though the smile on her face remained proper. "I won't take up any more of your precious time then. See you soon.’

She knew that she had to be patient in winning the man's heart. Succeeding on her first attempt would be impossible.

She wanted to pique his curiosity, then lure him in with her charm.

Leia's movements were natural, and her mannerisms were impeccable, the sure signs of a wealthy upbringing. Somehow, Luke thought that she was pretentious.

He had seen so many women like her, and he had detested every one of them.

However, he did not say anything to Leia because of her father.

After the celebrity left the office, Luke smiled coldly, then tossed the gold- stamped card into the trash without hesitation...

Leia calmly stepped out of the office. Once the door closed behind her, she shed her pretense.

The floor clacked as she stepped on it excitedly with her high heels. Her smile bloomed like a flower, and she could not help it but shriek in excitement!

The elevator doors opened, and she walked into it. At the moment before the doors closed completely, she seemed to notice a beautiful figure dressed in all white at the corner of the corridor.

That figure seemed familiar, though her long, black hair covered her face and could not be seen clearly...

Leia guessed that it might have been just a regular female employee. She did not have to worry about it.

However, she nonetheless felt uneasy when she saw her beautiful figure.

Perhaps when she became Mrs. Crawford, she would have to get rid of all the good-looking female employees in the company...

Leia wore sunglasses, and Bianca could not discern her expression.

However, she did notice Leia's lips that were curled upward.

Bianca wondered what Luke had said to her that made her happy. Was it something personal between them?

She dashed her nonsensical thoughts and knocked on the door.

"Come in." The man's voice was crisp and resonant.

Bianca opened the door and immediately choked on smoke. She frowned as she looked at the source of the smoke. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

The unbelievably handsome man sat casually on his leather chair. Between his finger was a cigar with a glowing tip.

The color of the cigar was a pale green, like a budding tobacco leaf. The scent of the smoke was refreshing like soil after the rain. It suited Luke's temperament very well. At that moment, Bianca thought that Luke seemed like a flammable work of art...
