Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle
Chapter 3074 Fake Nice Guy

After Luke put on the clothes, Luca helped him arrange the accessories, such as cufflinks, handkerchiefs, and pens. He placed them where they belonged. At last, she frowned and looked up at him. "Isn't it too formal?"

"Let's skip the handkerchief," replied Luke.

"That's a good idea. I'll just put some wet wipes in my bag later." Luca agreed and took away the handkerchief. "That's much better. Let me help you with your tie."

She picked up a neatly ironed tie and skillfully tied it for him. She then smiled in satisfaction. "You look handsome."

"Really?" Luke had been hearing compliments about his looks countless times since he was young, but Luca's praise always made him the happiest.

Luca nodded. "Yes, my man is undeniably handsome."

She could clearly see a hint of a smile in Luke's eyes when she praised him, so she continued praising him.

Luke was very pleased.

"Bea, praise me more in the future, okay?" Luke's eyes sparkled as he spoke.

"Sure, I'll give you more compliments in the future," replied Luca. She thought of giving him a kiss but stopped when she remembered she had just applied lipstick.

She took the initiative to hold his hand and said, "Let's go. Warren is already waiting for us."

"Yes, and Evan," replied Luke. When Warren received his instructions to pick them up, Evan also came along in the car.

As they reached the door, Warren was already waiting there.

"Mr. Crawford, Ms. Craw, please get in the car," said Warren as he opened the two rear doors.

Luca and Luke got into the car together.

Evan sat in the passenger seat and greeted them cheerfully, "Mr. Crawford, Dr. Craw, good morning."

"Good morning, Mr. Turner," greeted Luca. Since he still addressed her as Dr. Craw, she decided to call him Mr. Turner.

Evan smiled and heard Luke say, "Morning."

Evan raised an eyebrow. Indeed, Luke was a man of few words...

He was completely different from last night's dinner. It seemed that alcohol could make people talk more than usual.

Warren did not engage in conversation with them. After Luke and Luca got into the car, he followed suit and drove toward the venue.

Evan remained quiet for a few minutes but could not resist asking, "Mr. Crawford, who are you sending to help me? I still don't know who it is. How should I contact him later?"

"Someone will contact you later. Don't worry," replied Luke. Gale had everything arranged.

As for whether Gale or someone else from the venue would handle it, Luke was not sure. That was why he did not introduce Gale to Evan.

Gale was one of his trusted assistants. Evan probably did not know about him yet.

Luke did not want to expose Gale in front of Evan.

However, everything depended on the situation at the venue later.

They had a plan, but executing it depended on the specific circumstances.

"Okay." Evan did not ask further. Since someone would contact him later, he was not worried about it. He only had to pay more attention later.

The venue for the event was half an hour's drive from the Crawfords' ancestral home.

There were outsiders present, so Luke and Luca did not exchange any intimate words to avoid being overheard.

During this half-hour journey, Luke was engrossed in his phone. He was handling work while Luca looked out of the window and admired the scenery of X City.

Even though the scenery passing by in reverse was just some street views, it had some of X City's unique features, which brought a sense of novelty.

Evan glanced back and noticed that Luca was not doing anything else but looking out of the window. He could not help but say, "Dr. Craw."

Luca came back to her senses. For some reason, she always felt that if Evan was initiating a conversation with her, it would definitely lead to something.

It was not entirely unwarranted for her to think so. Last time, when she had a conversation with him in the office, he ended up suggesting that she should teach at Capital University.

She had rejected the offer before, but after Evan started managing the company, he still wanted her to do it.

Luca felt quite helpless about it.

She had also noticed that while it was easy to reject Dr. Jackson, Evan would not let her off so easily.

However, now that Evan had called her, she could not pretend not to hear. She could only brace herself and replied, "Yes, Mr. Turner?"

"Dr. Craw, how have you been considering the teaching position at Capital University that I mentioned last time?" Evan's voice carried a warm smile.

Yet, it was precisely this kind of fake nice-guy talk that was the hardest to turn down.

If Luca refused, she would feel like a terrible person.

Luca shot a glance at Luke and noticed that he was also looking at them.

She knew she could not rely on Luke's influence to reject this matter, so she replied, "Mr. Turner, I've considered it, but I'm really busy...

"Besides, it doesn't have to be me, right? It's been a while, and Capital University might have already found a substitute professor, no?"

Students had set school hours, so even if a lecturer could not make it to class due to an unexpected circumstance, another lecturer would step in immediately. It would not result in the students missing the class altogether.

Luca had been thinking about this for days, and since Evan had not come to push her, Luca thought that Capital University probably had a solution in place. She thought that they would not bother her anymore.

That was what Luca thought, but reality was not as she imagined.

Evan smiled and said, "Our company has yet to agree, and the school can't pause this course. So, they've temporarily found another professor to teach them.

"But that professor hasn't taught this course before, and the quality of teaching is indeed subpar. The students also have complaints.

"Therefore, Capital University contacted me yesterday, hoping that we could send a professor over as soon as possible to teach the students."

Luca was rendered speechless.

Evan continued, "Actually, I've asked other research professors for their opinions, but they're all deeply involved in crucial experiments and can't spare the time to prepare teaching materials and give lectures. "Moreover, those research professors are also getting older, and I'm reluctant to have them go through the hassle."

Luca was even more speechless.

What Evan said left her with no way to refute.

Capital University, teaching, giving lectures to students...

No matter how she thought about it, she did not feel up to the task.

"Mr. Turner, I think I still need some time to consider..." replied Luca. She thought that if she could delay a bit longer, Capital University might find a suitable lecturer to take over the classes.

"Dr. Craw, please give me a response as soon as possible..." Evan's voice trailed off, and Warren's voice chimed in.

"Mr. Crawford, we've arrived." After that, he found a parking spot and parked the car.

Luke glanced out of the window. It was the venue for the industry networking event. He nodded to Luca and said, "We're here. Let's go."
