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

Chapter 284 Am I Scary?

When Jason stepped into the office, he saw that his boss was leaning against his chair.

The man's tie was slightly undone. Jason was surprised to see that he seemed dejected, as though the

world had abandoned him.

Jason thought that his boss had overworked himself.

After handling the incident in Western Europe, the boss immediately took a flight back to A City.

Back at the company, he attended several meetings in which he had to make important decisions.

Perhaps he had not slept well for a few days in a row; after all, he was a workaholic. However, Jason

could not remember that his boss was ever so dejected.

"Mr. Crawford..." Jason took out his notebook and prepared to report business updates to Luke.

He instantly shut his mouth when he noticed that Luke's eyes were closed, perhaps resting.

Jason looked at Luke's face carefully. His gaze was filled with admiration and respect.

As CEO of T Corporation, Luke Crawford had always been resolute and assertive.

Not only did he have natural-born intelligence, but he also had acquired leadership and management

skills.

When he took over T Corporation at twenty-one years old, it was on the brink of ruin.

In a few years, Jason witnessed with his own eyes how his boss had increased the company's profits

by several hundred times and grown it to be a multinational conglomerate.

At the same time, he also witnessed how Luke had changed from a positive and gentle youth to

become a cold and ruthless man. He regained some of his humanity after meeting Ms. Rayne, though

last night's incident seemed to have reversed things.

Jason could not understand why Bianca would end up pinned under Xavier's body, despite his boss

loving her so much.

He knew that Bianca was set up and drugged, but he was uneasy that she had been gullible enough to

fall into Xavier's trap. She would not be able to stand beside Luke at the peak of his career.

Luke needed an intelligent and assertive woman so that they could grow T Corporation to greater

heights. Bianca was not like that.

'Mr. Doyle." Luke's resonant voice broke the silence of the office and also brought Jason out of his quiet

contemplation.

"Yes, Mr. Crawford." Jason stood up straight and took out his notebook once more.

Luke opened his eyes and said coldly, "Get HR to send an email to all employees that Manager Olson

of the work safety department shall be terminated with immediate effect for neglecting his duty and

nearly causing an accident in the newly-constructed Friendship Mall."

Jason jotted it down in his notebook without hesitation. “Yes." 'Tell the executive directorthat I'm very

interested inTeskell Corporation's newly developed energy source, and I want a dossier on that

company in a week. Also, prepare a merger and acquisition proposal forthat company." "Yes."

The boss was usually interested in two types of companies. Either they were very profitable, or that

their boss had offended Luke.

The former would usually end in acquisition, while the latter in complete annihilation.

T Corporation spent a lot of money on charity activities, but Luke was not a charitable man. The

business world was a harsh one. If one did not crush another while the latter thrived, the former would

eventually be crushed.

"Don't set up any appointments for me in the next few days, and cancel the meeting with JK Corp this

afternoon. Contact Percy Mallory and tell him that I have something to discuss with him.' Luke's eyes

were fully open.

The gloom on his face became more and more intense. It was a spine- chilling sight.

Jason was caught by surprise. He nearly dropped the notebook in his hands.

Luke remembered how Bianca had feared him. He glared at Jason and said, "Am I scary, Mr. Doyle?"

He had to save Nina today.

Otherwise, Bianca would remember that grudge forever.

He was indeed culpable for what happened last night. Bianca had been a victim, yet he continued to

bully her.

He was not sure how to placate Bianca yet.

Even though Luke might be a force to be reckoned with in the business world, he was helpless against

Bianca.

'No, you're not scary." Jason was almost breaking out in cold sweat. "I'll contact Mr. Mallory right now,

Mr. Crawford."

At almost forty years old, Jason was more mentally resilient than most other people, and he quickly

resumed his composure. However, he almost could not withstand his boss's terrifying expression

earlier.

Luke's gaze could kill. Even if one did not die, they would be horribly maimed.

Moreover, what was most painful was the process and not the result.

At the hospital.

Xavier was heavily injured. His head was wrapped in blood-stained bandages, his youthful and

handsome face was bruised, and his eyes were swollen shut.

Even his parents could not recognize him at first glance.

His most serious injuries were internal.

Luke had broken four of Xavier’s ribs and had impaled his palm with the wine glass. The doctor spent

more than half an hour trying to remove all the glass shards with a pair of tweezers.

Xavier was lying on the bed hooked to an IV drip. Not a single trace of vitality could be seen.

Daniel and Lacey, his parents, sat by the bed, worrying so much about their only son that their hair was

turning white, i

Lacey felt as though someone had scooped a bloody hole in her heart with a knife. No matter how

misbehaved Xavier might be, he was nevertheless her son, and she could not bear to see him suffer.

Lacey wiped tears off her face with a handkerchief. "Who is the merciless wretch that did this to my

son?" She wailed.

Daniel was livid.

Xavier had been causing trouble ever since he knew how to walk, and Daniel had to clean up after him.

He had even burned several bridges to protect his son. He gnashed his teeth when he saw his son in

that pathetic state. If he knew that Xavier was going to end up like that, he should have come into a

sock!

"That's enough of your wailing. You're the one who spoiled him! I told you that you shouldn't have

pampered him, but you don’t listen. He wouldn’t have ended up like this if you hadn't spoiled him. He

just got out of prison, and what did he get himself into this time? Do you think he'd be like this if he

hadn't made those friends?" Daniel wanted to throw something out of the window when he saw that

Lacey was inconsolable.

He was angry when he remembered how Lacey had pampered his son.

It was too late to discipline the child now. The bad habits were already rooted in his personality.

Daniel thought that Xavier's good-for-nothing friends had landed him into trouble again...
