Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 3163 Deal A Blow To Her Reputation

"Lanie!" Tommy protested and waved his hands. "I'm not interested in raw meat."

"But when you see it, you'll imagine how delicious it'll be once it's cooked," Lanie continued to tease Tommy.

"You're so mean..." Tommy was annoyed with his words but still sat down.

He was the most gluttonous one. When he saw raw meat, he would think of how delicious it would be once cooked by Luca.

Lanie was right. At the thought of this, he gave up the idea of helping. He looked closely at Lanie and asked, "Lanie, if you're not tempted, why don't you go over and help?"

"I can't." Lanie shook his head. "I'm allergic to the kitchen, just like Daddy. I lack talent." C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

"You're just lazy." Tommy hit the nail on the head.

Finally, Lanie raised his eyes from his book. He looked at his younger brother and nodded. "I am lazy, just like Daddy."

He really did not like being near the kitchen.

He was not interested in what was happening inside the kitchen. He was not a girl, like Rainie, who was interested in baking and cooking delicious food. He was not interested in any of that. He would rather read more books instead of wasting time there.

Books were more interesting than the kitchen.

Tommy wanted to say that Daddy was not lazy, he was just busy.

However, he thought about how Luke would not enter the kitchen even when he was not working and even when their mother was not around. He would simply order takeaway from a fancy hotel.

He had never seen Luke in the kitchen.

Tommy frowned. Maybe Luke had been in the kitchen, but it seemed like it was because of Luca.

He had never cooked for them!

In the dining room, two adults and a child worked together and soon marinated all the ingredients that needed marinating.

Luca picked out some and put them aside.

"Ms. Craw, what's this for?" Aunt Neile did not understand what Luca was doing.

"Mr. Crawford said he wants to have a home-cooked meal, so I'll make lunch later with these ingredients,” replied Luca. When she asked Aunt Neile to buy ingredients, she had already written down the ingredients she needed for the dishes she wanted to make.

"Okay, should I put the remaining ingredients back in the fridge?" asked Aunt Neile.

"Yes, please wrap them in plastic wrap and put them in the fridge. We'll skewer them later in the afternoon." Luca did not choose to skewer them now because there were quite a lot of ingredients.

If they skewered them now, it would take up a lot of space, and the fridge might not be able to contain them.

When Rainie heard them, she picked up the plastic wrap on the table and helped wrap up the dishes.

"Ms. Rainie, well done!" Aunt Neile watched Rainie's actions and praised her cheerfully.

Rainie's face reddened.

After finishing all this, Luca planned to prepare lunch.

Before preparing lunch, she walked to the living room, picked up her phone, and wanted to call Luke to ask if he would be back for lunch today.

When Lanie saw Luca picking up her phone, he asked, "Ms. Luca, are you going to call Daddy?"

"Yes, I wonder if he's coming back for lunch today," replied Luca.

"You don't need to call him. Daddy said he'd come back for lunch. If he hasn't called you or Aunt Neile yet, it means he's coming back for sure," said Lanie.

When Luca heard her eldest son say so, she nodded. After putting down her phone, she returned to the kitchen to prepare lunch.

Luke said he was craving home-cooked dishes, so she planned a luxurious home-cooked meal for him.

Luca looked at the seafood, beef ribs, and various vegetables she had taken out with a smile.

Would Luke be surprised if he knew her home-cooked dishes were this luxurious?

Aunt Neile asked, "Ms. Craw, what are you planning to cook?"

She looked at the seafood, meat, and vegetables. She was unsure of what Luca was going to make.

"I plan to make a seafood platter," Luca pointed at the seafood and enoki mushrooms. "I'll be using these ingredients, and for the others, I'll stir-fry some side dishes."

"Mr. Crawford enjoys having seafood. He'll definitely go for seconds at lunch today," said Aunt Neile. Even though she did not watch Luke grow up, she knew everyone's tastes in the Crawford family over

the years.

"Yes, but it's been a while since I made seafood platters. I hope it still tastes the same as before," replied Luca. There were not many fresh seafood options back on the Island of Despair. The seafood brought in was usually frozen.

Luca did not like frozen seafood as she found the texture unpleasant, so even though she cooked often, she rarely prepared seafood.

After coming back, she did not have many opportunities to cook. Except for the lobster brought back from Crawford Manor last time, she had not dealt with seafood at other times.

Luca was worried that she might not do well and would waste the seafood.

"Don't worry. You're a cooking prodigy. The food you make is delicious. Rest assured, it won't go wrong," comforted Aunt Neile. She had full confidence in Luca's cooking skills.

Luca smiled and started cooking.

In a meeting room of T Corporation, Luke gazed icily at the two individuals seated across from him.

Facing him were a man and a woman. He did not recognize the man, but the woman was Mavis.

The man, Sylvester Pearce, reportedly the boss of Mavis' company, had come to discuss cooperation today.

Luke did not think there was any cooperation he could discuss with them.

However, Jason mentioned that the terms offered by them were very good, but the condition was that they had to talk to Luke first.

Luke did not want to talk to these two people, but they happened to come to the company when he was working overtime. When he heard what Jason said, he thought he would listen to what they had to say.

"Lu-Mr. Crawford." Mavis paused for a moment, almost calling Luke by his first name.

She was a professional in the workplace and should not be making such basic mistakes. However, whenever she faced Luke, she could not help but feel overwhelmed. She would then become prone to making errors.

Luke's charm was just too irresistible.

Whenever she saw him, her heart raced uncontrollably, and she was unable to suppress the fluttering.

Even though she knew he would never like her and never belong to her, she just could not help it. She was unable to control her emotions.

She was fine at work until she saw him, then it was like her whole being was thrown off balance. She ended up making several mistakes in her reports.

Mavis felt that the man beside her was upset because of her unprofessional behavior.

Luke's gaze remained cold as he watched her.

Mavis took a deep breath, struggling to regain her professionalism. "Our company is very sincere about partnering with T Corporation. I believe you won't find a more professional outdoor landscaping design company in A City.

"Please trust in our expertise. If we collaborate, I'm confident we can smoothly secure the suburban development bidding project."

Luke set aside their project proposal and rejected her without hesitation," Our company has already found a landscaping company to collaborate with and has signed a contract. I'm sorry, but your company isn't within our consideration for cooperation."

Mavis's expression froze. His rejection was too blunt.

It also dealt a blow to her reputation!
