Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle novel Chapter 53

Next morning, it was a surprise that the boy did not laze in bed.

Thud, thud, thud. He ran back to his room, took his little toothbrush, and started washing up for the morning. He had a row of neat and white teeth which he carefully brushed. Once done, he ran to look for Rainie. When he opened the door, he announced to her, “Our mommy is still alive.”

Rainie’s hair was tied into a neat braid. She cocked her head to the side, “Big Bro, what are you talking about?”

“I said, our mother is still alive!” Blanche said as he marched forward and knelt on the floor to help his sister wear her shoes before bringing her to another house within the mansion.

Their nanny was not bothered by what the kids were doing.

Blanche got his sister to be on the lookout while he sneaked into Uncle Louis’ room quietly. He took his uncle’s phone and turned around to sneak out of the room...

“Did you get it Big Bro?” Rainie widened her eyes to ask.

Blanche nodded and went to a secluded corner with his sister. They used the phone to dial a number.

At the same time, Charles Finn’s phone rang.

At one housing estate within the City Center Fifth Ring, Charles was having a morning run with his wife. When his phone rang, both of them paused their steps.

When Charles reached for his phone, he frowned at the sight of the Caller ID and said to his wife Faye Thomas, “It’s Crawford’s second young master, Louis.”

“Why is he calling you?” Faye was puzzled.

The couple used to work with the Crawfords 20 years ago. Old Master Crawford had retired and handed the company to his son. Unfortunately, a few years later, his son had fallen severely ill and passed away thus Old Master Crawford had to come out of retirement.

It was until Luke Crawford returned to the family that they started to work for Luke.

Luke was a born leader and inherited the best genes the family had. His intelligence was above others. As of now, the couple believed that he did not inherit his father’s negative personalities.

His father was a promiscuous and fickled philanderer. They had not seen Luke carrying such an attitude thus far.

in a blink of an eye, since Luke came back at the age of 16, until now, it had been 13 years. Both Charles and Faye could no longer work even if they wanted to. They no longer had the strength to continue supporting this young man that was once being ostracized as an illegitimate son. Fortunately, Luke had built up his capabilities and could stand independently that nobody could threaten his position.

The two retirees were worried that any Crawford member would come looking for them.

Anyone that came looking for them did not have simple intentions. For the past five years, they have been asked regarding the identity of the twin’s biological mother countless times.

“Young Master Louis?” Charles eventually answered the call.

What replied to him was not Louis’ voice, but a soft cute voice. “Grandpa Charles...”

“Yo... Young Master Blanche?” Charles was puzzled.

“Grandpa Charles, I have a question for you. May I?” The boy asked politely.

“Of course you can. I’d tell you if I know about it.”

The boy knew that Charles was merely being courteous. The old man would not tell him everything...

“Last night, daddy finally told me that my mommy is still alive...” Blanche’s mood became low as he spoke. “Grandpa Charles, everyone said that you and Grandma Faye knew my mommy. Could you tell me if my mommy would come back looking for me?”

That was a difficult question for Charles.

“Will daddy remarry my mommy?”

While Charles had his breakfast, he began to analyze the situation with his wife.

Faye said, “Luke is not like his father. He’s not a womanizer. Back then I was shocked as well. A self-reserving young man coming to the mansion every night like a cat that was addicted to stealing fishes. He’d come into the mansion and begin the act without even informing her. How rough of him.

“The time when we wanted to go for our vacation, Luke got his staff to arrange for our flight and accommodation and kept trying to subtly convince us to go to England. Now that I think about it, it wasn’t because of the beautiful scenery but because there was somebody that he missed there.’

Faye took a sip of warm milk and chuckled. “Let’s ignore the fact that Ms. Rayne has a boyfriend. Even if she doesn’t, Luke would need to wait a few lifetimes before he could marry the mother of his children with his introverted character.”

Charles agreed with everything his wife had said. His usual stern look could not hold back a smile. “The main thing is, this chap is also arrogant and prideful. I would know that since I watched him grow up.”

Faye shook her head. “This is going to be a difficult task. Back then, I noticed that the girl was shy and quiet. If Luke doesn’t make the first move, there would be no hope between both of them.”

“I think the boy has seen Bianca.” Charles wiped his hand, and with a stoic expression, he said, “From various aspects, we can tell that Luke is extremely possessive and a control-freak. If he saw Bianca and her boyfriend, yet he didn’t know how to put down his pride to court her, wouldn’t he die suffocating from his jealousy?”

...

On the other end, at the Crawford Mansion.

The two kids deleted the call history and quietly returned the phone inside Louis’ room.

“Would dad allow it if we request for a phone?” Rainie asked as she followed behind Blanche.

Blanche thought about it for some time and decided against it because he was worried that it would anger their father.

‘After all, Uncle Louis always sleeps like a log. We can always take his phone to use.’
