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

"Okay." Lanie's cool face lit up with a faint smile as he scampered upstairs.

"Don't run when you're on the stairs. Be careful,” warned Luca when she saw that.

Even though Lanie had his own thoughts, he heeded Luca's advice and switched to walking. He gripped the staircase railing with his right hand.

"Ms. Luca, let's go wash our hands!" said Rainie with a bright smile on her face.

Luca nodded and walked into the bathroom with Rainie. After they washed their hands, they saw Luke and Lanie coming downstairs together.

"Time for dinner." Luca turned to look at Luke, her eyes filled with tenderness.

"Yes." Luke nodded, and they all sat down at the dining table.

Aunt Neile brought out a delicious spread of four dishes and a bowl of soup, which made for a very hearty meal.

Everyone was happily enjoying their meal. Meanwhile, the atmosphere in Mallory Manor was quite somber.

Old Master Mallory sat in the living room, with Karen sitting on the sofa next to him. He was staring at her with a cold expression on his face.

After the chauffeur brought Karen back, she hid in her bedroom and refused to come out. It was not until now that she stepped out of her bedroom.

Old Master Mallory was even more unhappy now.

Karen almost got into trouble. She did not come back as she was afraid that she would be scolded. Now that she had returned, she remained reluctant to admit her mistakes. Instead, she stayed in her room and refused to come out.

If she did not know Percy would be bringing Nina over for dinner later, she likely would not come out anytime soon.

Karen looked at the fruits placed on the coffee table by Mr. Bennet. When she was about to pick up a grape, Old Master Mallory's gaze became sharp as he fixed it on her.

Karen could sense the old man's gaze. She could not decide whether to pull her hand back or pick up the grape.
