Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle



Chapter 3265 Rear-Ended

After Luca left the hotel, she let out a sigh of relief.

She glanced at the car parked across the street, knowing that Luke's men were definitely watching her from inside.

Luca sent a message to Luke, letting him know she was fine and briefly explaining to him what had just happened. She then drove over to Watson.

She had only taken the morning off, so she still had to work in the afternoon.

Luca was not about to miss work over something so minor. When she got back to the company, it was already the afternoon shift. She headed straight to the lab and started working on experiments with her team.

Just before it was time to clock out, Luca stood up and suddenly felt dizzy. She quickly grabbed the table to steady herself.

Rhett noticed this and quickly asked, "Dr. Craw, are you feeling unwell?"

"I'm feeling a bit dizzy." Luca felt her vision darken for a moment, but after a while, the feeling passed. "I'm fine now."

*If you're not feeling well, I can take you to the hospital," offered Rhett, noticing how pale she had looked just moments ago, though she seemed to be doing better now.

*No need, I'm okay." Luca shook her head. "I just skipped lunch, so my blood sugar is a bit low."

A researcher heard this and pulled a candy out of his pocket. "Dr. Craw, have some candy. It'll help.*

*Thank you." Luca did not hesitate and took the candy.

One of the researchers teased, "Didn't expect you to carry candy around! Trying to win over some women?"

*Stop joking around. My girlfriend makes me keep some on me. She says we work so hard on research that we often forget to eat, and it's easy to get low blood sugar, so she'd put candy in my pocket," explained the researcher.

"That's a strong flex!"

*If it were any other researcher, that might be true, but we're working with Dr. Craw. We rarely have to work late," another researcher chimed in.

They hardly ever had to stay late since they worked with Luca.

It was because when they followed her lead and pace in the experiments, they hardly encountered any issues. Therefore, that researcher's girlfriend's concern was not really an issue for them.

*I told her the same thing, but she didn't believe me. She's my girlfriend, so I just let her be. It's just candy, no big deal. It shows she cares about me," replied the researcher.

Rhett could not help but laugh too. "Oh, you're getting that single guy's side-eye."

"Alright, alright, enough teasing. It's time to clock out," said Luca. Even though she had been out of the office for almost 24 hours, their experiment progress had not fallen behind. 

Hence, it was time to wrap up for the day.

"Got it. See you tomorrow, Dr. Craw." The other researchers tidied up their desks and left one by one.

Luca sat in the lab chair for a while longer before finally getting up to leave.

She found some snacks in the car and ate them before driving back to the villa.

Luca drove carefully, worried that her low blood sugar might act up again, so she kept her speed slow.

Ironically, the more cautious she was, the more likely she became a target for someone with bad intentions.

With a sudden bang, her car was rear-ended.

The impact pushed her into another car in front of her. The collision was so strong that the airbags deployed, and with a muffled groan, Luca lost consciousness.

When she woke up, she was already in the hospital.

She felt parched and uncomfortable, eager to quench her thirst.

Luke immediately leaned in when he heard her, his voice filled with concern. "Luca, are you feeling better?"

"What happened to me?" Luca tried to remember what had happened before, but no matter how hard she thought, she could not recall anything.

Her mind felt like it had frozen, and she could not remember why she was here.

*You were in a car accident. Karen was driving behind you at high speed and rear-ended you. Then, you hit the car in front. Do you remember any of that?" asked Luke.

Luca tried to shake her head, but the dizziness hit her again.

As Luca struggled to speak, she said, "I forgot... I'm thirsty."

"Wait a moment." Luke picked up a cup of lukewarm water, inserted a straw, and helped her drink.

Luca sipped the water slowly, and after finishing a full cup, she started to feel a bit better.

"What did the doctor say?" The sharp smell in her nose made her realize where she was.

Since she was in a hospital, the doctor must have already examined her.

She wanted to know what they had found.

"You have a mild concussion, nothing else," explained Luke.

According to the traffic police who investigated the scene, it was fortunate that Luca was not driving fast, so even though the car behind rear-ended her at a high speed, it did not cause her car to speed up too much.

She just hit her head, which was lucky considering the circumstances.

Luca raised her hand, familiar with the feeling of a concussion.

Sure enough, a wave of dizziness hit her, making her feel like the world was spinning. It was as though the sky and ground had switched places. She closed her eyes again. "I'm dizzy."

*Hang in there," Luke comforted her.

Luca knew this was just a side effect of the concussion. She had to endure it, and it would get better by the next

day.

"What time is it?" Luca asked with her eyes still closed.

"It's already eight in the evening," answered Luke.

"You didn't leave the kids home alone, did you?" asked Luca, worried that the kids might be in danger if left by themselves.

Although Lanie and Rainie could take care of Tommy, they were still kids.

"Nina is watching them," Luke reassured her. He had not told anyone else about the accident.

Not even Old Master Crawford.

The only reason Nina knew was because of Percy.

After Karen intentionally hit Luca, the police were called, and they informed Percy.

Nina knew Luke would be at the hospital to take care of Luca, so she volunteered to look after the kids. This allowed him to come to the hospital without having to bring the kids along, which would have been quite troublesome.

"Okay." Luca paused for a moment, feeling more comfortable speaking with her eyes closed. She then asked, "Did the police detain Karen?"

She thought to herself that Karen must have lost her mind to crash into her like that.

If Karen had fled the scene, things would have gotten much worse.

*She's been detained, but her mental state is unstable," Luke replied helplessly. He did not expect Karen to cause such trouble, just like Allison.

One had disfigured herself while the other ended up in police custody.

The dignified wife of the Mallory family, accused of intentionally ramming someone with her car, was taken away by the police.

Even though Karen's unstable mental state was being used as an excuse, this incident was still a bad mark for the Mallory family.

Luke was furious, and Percy promised to give him an explanation.

*Claiming mental instability is a convenient excuse," remarked Luca. She did not know what Karen's mental state was at the time of the crash, but she was certain that Karen's emotions were extremely unstable.

She wanted Luca dead.
