Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle
Chapter 1132 No One Had Cuddled Him for a Very Long Time

Luca came out of the kitchen with a plate of sliced apples.

Tommy was sitting on the couch wagging his legs while watching the cartoon on the television. He behaved as though he was at home instead of a stranger's house.

Luca smiled and put the plate on the coffee table. "I only have apples in my fridge. I'll go to the supermarket tomorrow and buy your favorite fruits.”

"Thank you, Ms. Luca!" Tommy said. He picked up an apple slice with a toothpick but did not eat it. Instead, he handed it to Luca. "You should eat some too!"

Luca smiled sweetly seeing how sensible Tommy was. She took the toothpick and said, "Thank you, Tommy."

Tommy could see the warm glow in Luca's eyes and could not help but lean closer. "Ms. Luca, can I lean on you?"

Luca was taken aback, but she soon knew what Tommy wanted. She smiled and nodded. "Of course.”

Tommy inched closer to her carefully in case she was uncomfortable.

Luca ate the apple and picked him up with both hands. "Come and lean on me."

Tommy grinned and snuggled in her lap. "You're so warm, Ms. Luca," he said.

Luca tousled the little boy's hair. She held the plate in her hand so that Tommy could access the fruit easily.

Tommy was not worried at all as he sat on Luca's lap and watched the cartoon.

An hour later, the cartoon ended. Luca lowered her head and looked at the child on her lap.

"Are you sleepy?” She asked softly when she saw that Tommy was already rubbing his eyes.

"Mm." Tommy nodded. He had stayed up late the night before he had to run away from home. Naturally, he was already feeling sleepy.

Luca could not bear to watch him wear himself out. She said, "How about you go take a shower, and we'll go to bed. Alright?”

"Yes, Ms. Luca.” Tommy nodded again and looked at her. "Ms. Luca, can I sleep with you?"

"Of course you can.” Luca took out his pajamas from his backpack. Abel had prepared a two-room apartment for Luca, but the other bedroom was turned into a laboratory.

Tommy took the pajamas and skipped toward the bathroom.

After he took his shower, Luca brought him to the bedroom. The sparsely-furnished bedroom with gray walls was cold and harsh.

The bed was not high, and Tommy climbed onto it easily. "Your bed is so soft, Ms. Luca.”

Luca let Tommy bounce on it twice before holding his hand. "That's too dangerous. You'd better lie down.”

Tommy did what he was told. He blinked and said, "When are you sleeping, Ms. Luca?"

"After I take a shower," Luca said while spreading the blanket. "You'll sleep first, alright?"

Tommy lay down on the bed and pouted. "Alright, Ms. Luca. I'll wait for you."

Luca patted his head, tucked him in, then went to the closet to take out her pajamas before going to the bathroom.

After her shower, her phone began to ring.

Luca saw the long string of numbers on her call notification. Her gaze turned cold as she answered the call. "Yes?"

"Why did you bring that kid home, Ivana?" Abel's sinister voice was heard from the other end of the call.

Luca knew that she could not hide anything from him. "My daughter is still in your hands. What can I possibly do?"

Nyla was still on the Island of Despair. Because of that, she could not tell Tommy her real identity. Abel laughed coldly and said, "Yes, I'm glad that you remember that your daughter is in my hands. Don't think of doing anything stupid if you want your daughter to live."

Luca gripped her phone tightly. She was growing tired of his threats, but she could not afford to ignore them.

"Is there anything else?" she asked.

"That's all," Abel said matter-of-factly. "I'm just reminding you about your daughter in case you forgot about her after seeing your son. Right, do you want to talk to Nyla?"

"There's no need.” Luca ended the call and stood in the living room in a daze.

'“Nyla..."

Tommy could hear Luca talking in the living room. He clambered out of bed because he was curious and saw her standing there. "What's wrong, Ms. Luca?"

Luca came to her senses. She turned her head and smiled at him. "It's nothing. I just received a scam call."

Tommy nodded and said seriously, "Daddy said that if you receive a scam call, you should immediately hang up and block the number. You don't have to talk to them because they're bad people.”

Luca smiled when she looked at his serious face. She took his hand and said, "Alright. Didn't you say that you're sleepy? Let's go to bed."

Tommy had grown a lot taller in three years. It was much easier to take his hand.

"I'm worried about you!" Tommy explained.

"I know, but I won't be so easily deceived. Don't worry." Luca placed him on the bed and took off her slippers. She slept close to the edge while Tommy slept next to the wall in case he rolled over and fell in the night.

Luca turned off the light and covered herself with the blanket.

As Tommy lay by her side, he could feel the warmth from her.

"Ms. Luca," he mumbled. He wanted to sleep closer to her, but he was afraid that she might be uncomfortable.

Luca smiled and hugged him. "Is this okay?"

"You're so warm, Ms. Luca,” Tommy mumbled. "No one has cuddled me in bed for a long time." "Doesn't your Daddy cuddle you while you sleep?” Luca asked. She did not hope that the impostor Bianca would cuddle Tommy.

"Daddy promised that he'd me, but he'd always go back on his word. He's always busy, and he'll work in the study until very late at night,” Tommy complained.

Luca suddenly felt uneasy. She could not keep calm after thinking that Luke had been living together with the impostor Bianca for so long.

Seeing that Luca did not reply, Tommy continued, "Whenever I wake up in the middle of the night, I'd find Daddy sleeping in the study. He always promises to sleep with me, but he never does, so I've already given up hope. Ms. Luca, you're the first person to cuddle with me in three years."

Luca's heart skipped a beat. "Tommy, did you say that your father has been sleeping in the study?" "Mm!" Tommy nodded. "Great-Grandpa placed a sofa bed in the study for him. He's been sleeping there for three years.”

Luca hugged him even more tightly.

Did that mean that Luke had never been physically intimate with the impostor Bianca?

She suddenly became flustered when thinking of that possibility.

Tommy was not uncomfortable even when she was hugging him so tightly. Instead, he felt more confident. He took her hand and mumbled, "I hope that you can be my godmother, Ms. Luca.” Luca lowered her head and looked at his sparkling eyes in the darkness. "Don't you already have a godmother?”

Tommy flipped over and looked at her. "How did you know that, Ms. Luca?"

Tommy's godmother was Nina. She was the one who had found a godmother for Tommy, but she could not tell Tommy that.
