Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle
Chapter 625 Telling Queenie the Entire Truth

In the private room of a restaurant.

The guests guzzled bottles upon bottles of alcohol. They had to hide their true feelings and maintain smiles on their faces even though the bitter taste lingered in their mouths.

Luke was drinking with Mr. Norman and his men. He had drunk a lot of alcohol.

He had a high tolerance for alcohol. Though he managed to decline most of the offers to drink, there were too many people toasting him.

Everyone at the table was an influential politician or government official. Luke dared not decline too many of their toasts.

He felt a little tipsy, though his mind was still sound. "There's something that I'd like to ask, Mr. Norman. T Corporation has always obeyed the law, and we only start a project only after we obtain the requisite permits. We have checked every document, permit, and schedule at least three times, and we have not found any problems. I would like to know if the company has done something wrong to deserve the stop-work order.”

He poured a glass of alcohol for Jack. "Please let me know if there's something I can work on."

The handsome man seemed drunk, but his gaze remained stubbornly sharp, as though he was determined to find out the truth,

Jack did not drink that glass of alcohol, neither did he answer Luke's question. Instead, he gazed profoundly at Luke. "Let's not talk about business today, Luke. How about we chat about our personal lives?"

Luke knew very well that Mr. Norman was not one to engage in small talk. Neither was he.

For people like them, time was money.

However, Luke considered Mr. Norman's status and agreed to his suggestion.

He lifted his glass and clinked it with Mr. Norman's class. "Alright, let's not talk about business today. Bottoms up, Mr. Norman.”

Half an hour later.

Without talking about business, Luke managed to find out the reason why Jack Norman had tried to trip up T Corporation.

Mr. and Mrs. Norman had found out that his mother had swapped their baby, and they were using this opportunity to threaten Allison to tell them the truth about the incident.

Luke knew that Mr. and Mrs. Norman were honest and considerate people who would not resort to threats. However, they had abandoned their principles just so that they could reunite with their birth daughter. It seemed that they were desperate.

However, he hesitated to tell them the truth.

Personally, he did not want to see Bianca reunite with the Norman family. On the other hand, he could see that the couple seemed to be obsessed with finding their birth daughter. He could also see that Mr. Norman's hair was turning white from worry, and he did not know if not telling them the truth was the right thing to do.

Now that he knew Mr. Norman's intentions, it would be a lot easier to deal with it.

Allison went to T Corporation for an “investigation.” What she found was exactly like what Jason had told her.

The company was in a financial crisis because of the stop-work order.

She became very nervous.

She did not want to see her son's company in financial trouble.

All those years of living luxuriously had made her a spendthrift. She did not want to return to a life of poverty.

After her investigation, she walked out of T Corporation, clutching her brand new handbag.

She was about to make a call to her son when an eye-catching car stopped in front of the building. A bodyguard dressed in black opened the car door, and Luke stepped out of the car.

"Luke!" Allison called out her son's name agitatedly.

Luke frowned imperceptibly when he saw her mother appear at T Corporation. "Why are you here, Mother?"

Allison was instantly unhappy. "You are my son. What's wrong with me coming here and visiting you?"

She could smell the alcohol in Luke's breath. Instead of feeling sorry for him, she started to reprimand him. "Why are you drinking during the day? Don't you know that alcohol is bad for your health? Don't tell me that you're not worried at all about your company?"

Luke glanced at his mother impatiently. He did not respond to his mother. Instead, he rubbed his temples and stepped away toward the revolving door at the entrance.

Allison felt hurt when she saw how her son had disrespected her in public. "You child..."

Luke continued walking away while Allison chased him from behind. "Wait for me, my son.”

The two people were mother and son, but they were as distant as strangers.

Allison continued to ramble as she followed behind Luke. "I'm asking you a question, my son. Why aren't you answering? Would the stop-work order affect the operations of T Corporation? Mr. Doyle said that the company can't even afford to give me ten million dollars. Don't tell me that it's real? Is the company going bankrupt? Say something..."

She was still talking when they arrived at the CEO's office.

Luke could not take it anymore. He got someone to write a check of ten million dollars and stuffed it in his mother's hands. "Don't worry about the company, Mother. I'll handle it. Here's ten million dollars for you.”

Allison did not show any joy when she took the check. Instead, she was worried.

"Is the financial crisis very serious, my son?" She asked with great difficulty.

Luke lowered his gaze and replied not very truthfully, "It is quite serious, and I'm not sure when the company will get out of this rut. I have to work, Mother. You can leave if there's nothing else.”

He could not wait for his mother to leave.

It was the first time that Allison did not want to take the money. "Luke... if it's that serious, then maybe... you should keep the money?" She said hesitantly.

Allison looked at her son hard at work. She noticed that beard stubble was growing on Luke's chin, and eye bags were forming around his animated eyes. There was a hint of lethargy in his eyes.

She felt sad and helpless.

All this time, she had asked for many things from her son based on the fact that she gave birth to him. She had never given anything back.

She decided that she would tell Queenie the truth.

After all, the truth could not possibly be hidden forever.

So what if Queenie knew about it?

She did not care if the Normans would accept Bianca, but she could not let T Corporation get in trouble because of her!
