Like a proud princess, Leia held Luke's elbow and walked along the soft red carpet into the hall.

All the guests were gathered there.

Luke smiled elegantly and nodded at the people who greeted him.

He pressed his lips in response to the congratulatory messages, but there was a hint of mockery in his smile.

Countless cameras captured the loving scene, bearing witness to the union of the two influential families.

The Crawford and Norman families sat at separate tables. Every one of them was joyous.

Old Master Crawford, dressed in a navy blue suit, seemed to be in good spirits. The joy on his face was evident.

Originally, he had thought that his grandson would not proceed with the engagement after negotiations failed. That had made him unreasonably angry.

He was a control freak. He even thought of resorting to underhanded means so that his grandson would comply.

To him, a union of the Crawford and Norman families could only bring them benefits. He would not allow Luke to

    When Leia looked at Luke's icy gaze and heard the whispers among the guests, she realized that the man was not joking! No one would make such a tasteless joke at their own engagement ceremony. Leia's face turned pale at an instant. She did not expect that sudden turn of events at all. She was expecting bliss, but it turned out to be ridicule. All her hope had turned into despair! She stiffly lifted her dress, walked in front of Luke, and begged him softly, "Luke, we've never quarreled or fought. If there's a problem, treat it as all my fault. If you don't like any aspect of me, I'll change for you, alright? Don't call off the engagement. After we're engaged, you can do anything you want. Please… there are so many guests and media reporters here. I don't know what they'd say. Can't you spare some dignity for me and my family?" Leia had a pitiful expression as she stared at Luke. Tears were almost falling from her eyes. She admitted that she loved the man in an undignifie

    After the people from the Norman family left, the media reporters flocked to Luke. They bombarded him with questions, and their cameras did not stop flashing! "Mr. Crawford, will the cancellation of the engagement today negatively affect the relationship between the Crawford and the Norman families?" "Mr. Crawford, it goes without saying that you are the perfect match for Ms. Norman. What is the real reason for the cancellation of the engagement?" "Mr. Crawford, T Corporation will be launching a series of products soon. Aren't you worried that the cancellation might affect its sales?" The reporters shoved their microphones in Luke's face. Their cameras accurately captured his expression. Luke loosened his tie, and his Adam's apple moved. The impatience on his sculpted face was evident. His grandfather had passed out. He was not in the mood to deal with all the reporters. He shot an icy gaze toward the reporters that were taking his photos. Instantly, everyone fell silen

    Luke faced the people from the Public Integrity Committee with an indifferent expression. He loosened his tie and ignored them. A group of bodyguards surrounded him and prepared to escort him away. "Hold it right there, Mr. Crawford! You are suspected to be involved in a major bribery case. Please cooperate with us and follow us back to the headquarters for investigation." Amid the tumult, a young officer squeezed past the crowd and stood in Luke's way. Jason was standing next to Luke. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and smiled gently, but the words that came out of his mouth were a stark contrast to his expression. "Mind your words, Sir. Mr. Crawford has always been honest in his dealings, and slander is a serious crime." Jason quickly sized up the officer from the Public Integrity Committee. He seemed young, perhaps in his mid-twenties, and he had a round and plump face. Jason could tell that he was a new recruit. He could not help but be impressed by how that new

    In the hospital. "Unforgivable! This is unforgivable!" Right after Old Master Crawford came to, he saw that every channel on the television was reporting negatively on his grandson. He was so angry that he flung the bowl of medicine that the nurse brought in. The black liquid splashed all over the floor. The nurse stood there stiffly and helplessly, not sure what to do. "You've just woken up, Father. The doctor said that you shouldn't be emotionally agitated…" Susan was trying her best to comfort his father-in-law, but she was laughing up her sleeve. Her decades-long existence in the Crawford family was fraught with misery. She blamed Old Master Crawford for not controlling his son. If Old Master Crawford had been strict with Zachary, he would not have been so brazen to bring Allison back home. What was worse than accepting Allison into the family was that the old man had allowed that b*stard child to take over the family business. Luke's control over T Corporation was

  • Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle   Chapter 528 Why Would “Luke Crawford” Turn Himself In?

    The setting sun was like a burning flame, shrouding the lake surface with color and lighting up the mansion like the scene of a dream. Bianca sat peacefully next to the artificial lake, resting her cheek on her hands. She felt bored as she looked at the fish swimming in the lake. The nurse quietly stood by her side. A string of footsteps walking toward Bianca broke the silence. Bianca saw Luke walking toward her while facing away from the sun. She smiled happily, but her tone was doubtful. "Why are you back so early?" Bianca knew that Luke had been very busy lately. He would usually come home almost close to midnight, and sometimes he would reek of alcohol because of the business dinners he had to attend. She felt sorry for him. The nurse nodded politely when she saw her employer approach. Then, she discreetly went away and gave the space to the lovers. Luke walked in front of Bianca's rattan chair and sat down. He loved to hug her in his arms. He thought that it was an

    They were in utter disbelief when they found out that the man in the conference room was not Luke Crawford, the CEO of T Corporation, but Luke Crowford, the general manager of a medium-scale company. 'How uncanny! 'How could two people look and sound so alike, and how could their names be so suspiciously similar?' With the facts laid in front of them, they had no choice but to believe it. Half an hour later, a group of police officers entered the conference room, bringing with them the disgraced Mr. Schmidt in handcuffs. Peyton Schmidt was a man in his fifties. He still carried the demeanor of someone in a position of power for a long time, but his face was haggard, his eyes were lifeless, and his body was shriveled. It seemed that prison life took a toll on his physical and mental health. "Look at that man, Peyton Schmidt. Is he the Luke Crawford whom you have dealings with?" The male officer asked sternly. Peyton lifted his head weakly and started to carefully examine t

    The major case involved Luke Crawford, A City's business mogul, and Peyton had provided conflicting statements. The higher-ups of the Public Integrity Committee paid a lot of attention to the case. However, they could not find anything that pointed to Luke Crawford. The man in the incriminating video matched Luke Crowford's appearance. Also, Peyton insisted multiple times that the name on the contract was Luke Crowford with an "o." Of course, Luke Crowford's identity was genuine. He was an orphan without any relations, and his background and work experience were plain for all to see. GC Corporation, the implicated company, had existed for ten years. The legally appointed representative for the company was indeed Luke Crowford. Gordan produced the contracts that proved the transfer of ownership of those plots of land from Luke Crowford of GC Corporation to Luke Crawford of T Corporation. Gordan spoke eloquently in front of the judge and jury, describing the details of the tr

    There was a reason why Peyton Schmidt changed his statement abruptly. Even though he was in prison, a large portion of his property had disappeared, and no one had been able to find its whereabouts. However, Luke managed to find out that Peyton had a mistress and an illegitimate child. Before he was arrested, Peyton had secretly moved the mother and child to Switzerland and had transferred his property under the child's name. That was how Luke threatened Peyton, saying that if Peyton did not follow his instructions, he would expose the whereabouts of his property, and the mother and child's lives would be put in danger. Peyton was resentful toward the threat, but he had no choice. Luke had taken extreme care in ensuring that there were no flaws in every step of his plan. Any flaw would result in his plan's failure. After Bianca listened to the concise but comprehensive narration, she could not help but be impressed by the man's attention to detail. Ten years ago, Bianca

    Kassy’s eye donor was Hera, the one Abel had brought over.Even though Hera’s eyes resembled Kassy’s, they did not meet the criteria for a transplant. However, Hera’s blood type matched Kassy’s exactly.Hence, Abel decided to use Hera’s eyes. His belief was that her eyes were specifically meant for Kassy.Shanks knew he would not be able to change Abel’s mind, so he did not try. Abel’s stubbornness was something even Kassy herself could not sway.Luca remained silent for a while, not saying anything further. She understood that using a cadaver was the best option as it would not harm anyone.However, the eyes Abel wanted for Kassy were not from a cadaver. He intended to take them from Hera.Luca certainly would not participate in such a surgery. It was too cruel.“What are you thinking?” Shanks suddenly asked.Luca shook her head. “I’m just thinking about the volunteer’s situation.”“You’re wondering if this solution will be marketed, aren’t you?” Shanks suddenly asked.L

    “I’m still a bit worried. Let me take a look in your room and change the dressing while I’m at it.” Luca knew Luke would not want her to worry. Therefore, she needed to see for herself that everything was fine before she could feel at ease.“Alright.” Luke knew she was worried about him, so the two of them headed into the room.He took off his shirt, revealing the bandage wrapped around his torso.Luca could not help but chuckle at the sight. The wrapping was done by Gerald, and it was hilariously sloppy. It was haphazardly bound—overly tight in some places and entirely uneven. It looked like it was just meant to cover the wounds, with no thought for neatness.“Stop laughing.” Luke was clearly rendered speechless by Gerald’s lackluster bandaging skills as well.If it were not for the fact that it was difficult to bandage himself, he would never have let Gerald do it.“With it wrapped like this, how are you supposed to sleep at night?” Luca asked as she began unwrapping the ba

    Abel chuckled. His voice was low and gravelly.“Hera, let’s agree on something. Don’t use threats of leaving to manipulate me anymore, or I won’t be happy,” said Abel in a low voice.What might have sounded like a plea or a compromise came across to Hera as a veiled threat.The cool sensation of his fingers brushed against her eyelids, and she could not help but shiver. His touch felt as cold as death itself. She could not feel a trace of warmth.Her hands clenched tightly together. The tension in her grip was the only thing keeping her from trembling further.“Alright,” Hera murmured obediently.Abel withdrew his hand. Hera opened her eyes. A strange unease stirred within her. For reasons she could not quite explain, Abel’s behavior filled her with an unsettling dread…“Will you stay at the hospital with me tonight?” Hera could not help but crave some semblance of comfort.Abel frowned slightly. “Stay here with you? And what about Luca?”“You could just send her home. I onl

    Luca's expression was serious, and Hera realized she was not just trying to scare her. Ignoring her warnings had already caused her to suffer once.Unwillingly, Hera sipped on the cereal. Her resentment was evident in every movement.Luca noticed it was not difficult for her to handle. She quietly sat down and ate her own bowl of cereal.Hera did not have much of an appetite.Hera took a couple of bites before growing bored. She glanced at Luca and asked, “How did you end up working for Abel?”Luca did not respond. She calmly blew on her cereal and ate in silence, showing no intention of engaging in conversation.“I’m talking to you. Are you deaf?” snapped Hera.Luca lifted her gaze briefly and replied, “You should finish your cereal before it gets cold.”“I’m not even hungry.” Hera really had no appetite and was not planning to eat the cereal.“It’s still better if you eat something. Otherwise, when hunger strikes later, don’t expect me to help you,” said Luca, “I’m only he

    Luke had never taken the medicine that could speed up healing, so his recovery was nowhere near as fast as the others from the Island of Despair.Luca did not respond to Gerald’s comment. Her gaze fixed on him with intensity.“No stitches,” said Luke, “I trust you.”Luca bit her lower lip.“But if you don’t stitch it, it might tear open,” insisted Gerald, staring at Luke’s wounds.Luke glanced at his injuries and shrugged, seemingly unconcerned, as though the wounds had nothing to do with Luca.“Stitches will leave scars.”“Are you afraid of scars? What kind of man doesn’t have a few scars on him? Scars are a symbol of manhood,” teased Gerald with a playful tone, “Scars show you’re reliable, that you can protect a woman.”Luke gave him a look as though he were an idiot, then his gaze shifted to Luca. “I don’t want too many scars. I’m worried my future wife might dislike them.”Luca’s heart sank at his words, but his lighthearted remark eased her sadness. Despite the severity

    Luca could not help but tremble with heartache. She fought hard to resist the urge to rush forward.Everyone in the room had survived brutal training to make it out of the Island of Despair, and they could not help but shudder when they saw the scene. The sound of the whip felt like it was landing on their own bodies.Gerald closed his eyes, unable to watch any longer. It was too cruel for him to watch.The ten lashes felt like an eternity, stretching on for what seemed like a century.Luca looked at the drenched clothes on Luke. His eyes were red, and his shirt was so soaked that you could wring out the blood from it. Her hands were clenched so tightly into fists that the veins were bulging.Abel tossed the whip aside, looking at Luke’s disheveled state with satisfaction. He enjoyed the thrill of this bloody scene.He turned to Luca, noticing her reddened eyes, and smiled even more devilishly. “Hera is in the hospital now. You’ll go take care of her for the next few da

    Luca instantly understood the situation. It was about Hera.Hera was someone Abel valued, possibly as a future corneal donor for Kassy. While Abel might not love Hera now, he certainly took her health seriously.In a calm tone, Luca explained, “She was hospitalized due to inflammation that caused a fever.”Abel furiously flung his half-smoked cigar at her. The glowing embers singed her clothes, leaving a small burn mark.She instinctively stepped aside.Abel roared, “What kind of care is this?! I told you to look after her! Is this how you handle things?”Luca was perplexed. When did he ever tell her to look after Hera?Besides, she did take care of her.”When Ms. Sanchez fainted last night, she already had a low-grade fever. I diagnosed her condition as inflammation and prescribed anti-inflammatory and fever-reducing medication. I also emphasized that she needed to take oral anti-inflammatory drugs. She didn’t trust me and threw out Mr. Shanks’ medication, which led to her con

    Luca placed her hand on Hera’s other wrist, checking her pulse. “Her condition is worsening. The inflammation in her body has intensified.“I prescribed her medication. Those are Mr. Shanks’ formulations, and they're highly effective for reducing inflammation. It shouldn’t be getting worse.” Gerald pursed his lips before finally speaking up. “Luca, when I was cleaning yesterday, I saw that Ms. Sanchez had thrown all the medication you prescribed into the trash. She didn’t take any of it.”Luca was speechless.She had been questioning whether the medicine was ineffective or if she had made an error in diagnosis. It turned out that it was Hera herself who had sabotaged her treatment.“What should we do now?” asked Gerald.“There’s no other option. She needs to go to a hospital,” Luca decided firmly. “Her condition is serious, and since she doesn’t trust my treatment, the hospital is her best choice.”“Can’t you help her just this once?” pleaded Gerald, “I mean, she looks really b

    Luke stayed silent, letting the chilled beer cool him down, washing away some of the lingering heat.Gerald glanced around to make sure no one was nearby before leaning in and speaking softly to Luke. “Actually, I’ve seen it.”“Seen what?” Luke could not be bothered.Lowering his voice even further, Gerald whispered just loud enough for the two of them to hear, “I’ve seen you going into Ms. Craw’s room quite often.”Luke’s expression sharpened instantly. A cold glint flashed in his eyes.He had been so cautious. How had Gerald noticed? Was he bluffing?Luke narrowed his eyes and said nothing.His aura grew colder by the second.Gerald, sensing the rising tension, shrank back slightly and quickly added, “Relax, I’m not going to tell anyone. If I wanted to report you, I would’ve done it already.”Luke’s expression eased slightly.Gerald continued to reassure him, “I’m not one to meddle. Look, I haven’t said a word about you, and I even stood up for you during that whole thing
