Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle



Chapter 3316 My Heart Has Always Been With You

"Yes," replied Luke helplessly. "She's had several surgeries abroad, but they couldn't fully fix her skin. Now, she's planning to come back and continue treatment here."

"She still thinks her face can be restored..." Luca was rendered speechless. While the standards of cosmetic and reconstructive surgery in the country were considered good, Allison's condition was not something that could be fully healed anywhere.

Luca walked over, pulled a chair, and sat beside him. "Is she planning to bring Ms. Thomas back with her too?"

"I'm not sure." Luke suddenly chuckled. His eyes carried a hint of tease as he looked at Luca. "Are you getting jealous?"

"Why would I be jealous?" Luca felt helpless, her face flushing at his playful comment. "Even if Ms. Thomas comes back, it doesn't matter. You're not interested in her at all, so what's there to be jealous of?"

"As long as you trust me," replied Luke with a smile on his face. "You used to get jealous all the time."

"I still do, but I've learned something." Luca put on a playful smile. She used to be really jealous, especially when she saw other women fawning over Luke. It would make her uncomfortable.

However, she was different now. She was more confident. As long as Luke did not accept those women's advances, she would not feel jealous or insecure anymore. Luke was hers, and she was possessive, but she had learned not to let jealousy get the better of her.

"What have you learned?" Luke raised his hand, gently caressing her cheek. The soft, smooth feel of her skin made him reluctant to let go.

"I've learned that as long as you only have me in your heart, there's no need for jealousy," answered Luca.

Luke smiled and nodded. "Exactly. My heart has always been with you."

"But there's still one issue that's a bit of a problem. Putting Ms. Thomas aside, your mother's return is definitely going to stir up chaos and disrupt the peace. You're the one who'll have to deal with it.'

Luca and the kids would not be too affected, but it would definitely be a headache for Luke.

Allison had a knack for causing trouble.

"I didn't tell her not to come back." Luke felt helpless. Allison was indeed a troublemaker, and her return would certainly disrupt the Crawford family.

In the end, she was still part of the Crawford family, so they could not just refuse to let her come back.

"Did you tell your grandfather?" asked Luca.

"I did." Luke nodded. As soon as he found out Allison was returning, he informed his grandfather. "Grandpa said it's fine as long as she doesn't stay at Crawford Manor."

"That makes sense. After all, Louis' mother doesn't live at Crawford Manor anymore, so your mother can't either. Otherwise, there would definitely be drama." Luca held the hand that had been caressing her face. Allison had caused enough harm to people in her earlier years.

Luca was one of them, as well as her biological and adoptive parents.

Now, in Allison's later years, she was still stirring up trouble, and this time, it was for Luke.

Luca could not help but feel uncomfortable.

No matter how capable Luke was, having a mother like that had to be frustrating.

"Are you planning to have her move back into her old villa?" asked Luca.

Luke gave her a bitter smile. If Allison had agreed to that, he would not have been so stressed, and Lanie and

Rainie would not have been so upset either. When Luca saw the look on his face, she guessed what was going on and asked, "She doesn't want to?"

"Yeah, she doesn't." Luke was baffled by Allison's sudden change. She used to love living alone in a villa, enjoying a carefree life with no one to bother her.

Now that she was coming back, she had a change of heart.

"She says she'll either move back to Crawford Manor or move in with me." Luke's voice was full of helplessness.

Luca frowned. Allison did not want to live on her own anymore.

"And she won't accept having a housekeeper?" asked Luca.

Although Allison was Luke's biological mother, the thought of living with her made Luca feel a headache coming on.

"No. I think it's because I had her sign the villa over earlier this year, and she's still upset about it. This is her way of getting back at me. Her end goal is to get that villa back." Luke narrowed his eyes. Getting the villa back would be no easy task.NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

Even if she insisted on moving in, he had plenty of ways to make her leave.

It would just take some time, and Luca and the kids would have to endure some inconvenience in the meantime. "I'm guessing you're not giving her the villa back," said Luca.

"Definitely not. I'll figure out a way to get her to move out, but it might mean some trouble for you and the kids." Luke stroked her hair gently.

"It's okay. I'll just treat her like she's invisible," replied Luca. As long as she did not care about Allison's presence, no amount of sharp words could hurt her.

Still, Luca was worried about the kids. "The only thing is, the kids are nearing the end of the semester, and Lanie has his grade-skipping evaluation coming up. I'm worried this situation might affect his studies.

"If she really does move in, how about we let the kids stay at Crawford Manor for a while?"

Luca figured Luke's grandfather would agree to let the kids stay at Crawford Manor.

"Sure. Letting them stay there for a bit would be good," Luke agreed.

Old Master Crawford loved having his great-grandchildren around. If Allison insisted on moving in here, the kids could stay at Crawford Manor so that their studies would not be disrupted.

"Alright." As long as the kids were not affected, Luca did not care how much trouble Allison stirred up.

After they settled on the plan, Luca stood up and said, "I'm going to make some ice cream for the kids. Do you want some?"

"I'll have a scoop." Luke did not usually care for sweets, but Luca's desserts were an exception.

He did not crave them, but they tasted better than anything he could get elsewhere, so he was happy to have some.

"Alright, I'll make you some plain vanilla." Luca smiled warmly before leaving the room and heading downstairs. "Ms. Luca, did you and Daddy discuss? Is Grandma really going to live with us?" Rainie asked nervously. Her mind was haunted by the thought of her grandmother's frightening face.

She did not know when it started, but the once kind and loving grandmother had changed into someone entirely different. She was no longer gentle or caring.

Now, she was scary, and Rainie feared that her grandmother might harm them.

After all, it was terrifying to see what their kind grandmother had become.

"Don't worry. If she really moves in, you kids will be staying at Crawford Manor for a while. Once your dad sorts things out, you can move back," Luca reassured the three children. This was the best solution for now.

"Are you and Daddy coming with us to Crawford Manor?" asked Tommy. He wanted to stay together as a family. Luca shook her head. "No, we won't. If we all go, your grandmother will follow us there, and that'll make things even harder to deal with."

Old Master Crawford had gone through a lot of trouble to get Susan to move out of Crawford Manor. If they all moved back, Susan would demand to come back too, and Allison would surely follow.

That would turn the entire Crawford Manor into complete chaos.

Sending the kids to Crawford Manor would avoid that. Susan would not mind, and this could ensure that Old Master Crawford's peace was not disturbed.
