Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle novel Chapter 1343

Luca lifted her head, and the two pairs of eyes met, which caused her to shudder involuntarily.

Sue took out a bottle of red wine from the cabinet. She smiled and said, "I'm in the mood today. Shall we all have a drink? I know it's weird to pair red wine with fish, but we're all friends here, and we don't really mind that, do we?"

Luca's alcohol capacity was quite high now, and she did not have to drive herself home later, so she had no problems with drinking during dinner. She nodded and said, "Alright."

Luke did not voice his opinion.

Jason said, "Let's not, Sue. Ms. Crawford drove here. If he drank wine, how is he going to drive home later?"

"If he can't drive home, he can spend the night here," Sue said matter-of-factly. "Mr. Crawford, if you don't want to spend the night here, I'll get some freshly-squeezed orange juice for you. That's what the children are drinking too."

Luke glanced at the bottle of red wine in her hands. He knew that Jason had bought some bottles while on a business trip in France a few years ago, and Jason had planned to save them for a special occasion.

"Red wine is fine." Luke made his decision. He did not want to be drinking orange juice together with the children.

Sue nodded and asked the caretaker to bring four wine glasses. "That's more like it. It's a special occasion today, and we ought to drink some wine to celebrate it. If you can't drive, I'll get a cab for you."

Jason massaged his temples when he heard what Sue said.

The caretaker brought four wine glasses to the table. Sue uncorked the wine and poured it into the glasses. "We don't have time to decant the wine, so let's just drink it straight from the bottle. This wine has a great texture, and it's quite good even if you don't decant it."

"Thank you," Luca said with a smile as she took the wine glass from Sue's hand.

"Don't be a stranger, Dr. Craw," Sue said magnanimously. "Right, calling you 'Dr. Craw' sounds too formal. Is it okay if I call you by your name?"

Luca nodded and said, "Of course."

"Luca sounds better anyway," Sue said while pouring the wine into Luke's glass. "Have a taste, Mr. Crawford. Jason bought the wine while he was on a business trip to France, and I heard that you bought a case too. Have you finished it?"

Jason shook his head again. Sue had not touched a drop of alcohol yet, but she spoke as though she were already drunk. 'Doesn't she know who she's speaking to?' He thought.

"Not yet." Luke took the glass and shook it gently.

Sue said, "Fine wine is meant for drinking. You should drink yours soon. It might taste richer the longer you store it, but it won't taste as unique."

Jason stood up and took the bottle from Sue's hands. "Let me do it."

Sue did not try to snatch the bottle back from Jason. She sat down, smiled, and looked at Luca as Luca took a sip of wine. "What do you think of the wine, Luca?" She asked.

"I don't drink wine often, but I like the taste and texture. This should be suitable for women," Luca said after rolling the wine in her mouth for a while.

"That's right, Dr. Craw. This wine is suitable for women." Jason poured a glass of wine for Sue, then poured himself a glass.

Luke turned his gaze toward Luca and said, "I didn't expect that you know quite a bit about wine, Dr. Craw."

"My parents like to drink wine," Luca said and took another sip.

Luke raised his eyebrows. "I thought that Russians like to drink vodka. What about you, Dr. Craw?"

"As long as it's good quality," Luca said with a smile.

Luke was the one who drank the least.

Sue glanced at the clock and saw that it was almost eleven o'clock. She said, "You shouldn't go home today, Luca. It's already so late, and it'll be hard for you to catch a cab."

"I don't think I should impose on you. It might be late, but I know that I can get cabs easily in this area." Luca shook her head. She took out her phone and prepared to book a cab.

When Luke saw that, he said, "I'll send you home. It's along the way."

Luca frowned slightly when she looked at the wine glass in his hand. "You drank quite a lot of wine, Mr. Crawford. I don't think you should drive."

"My driver is already waiting for us outside," Luke said. He knew that he was going to drink wine, so he had already sent a message to Sean. Currently, Sean was waiting outside the mansion for the dinner to end.

Now that someone was sending Luca home, Sue did not intend to keep her there. Even though she did not like Luke, she trusted his character.

After finishing the last of the wine, they said goodbye to each other.

Luca took her handbag and left the living room. Luke was walking next to her.

They walked out of the small mansion with only two parking lots. Luke's car was waiting for them across the road, and they had to step out of the gate.

Jason was walking in front of them, leading the way.

Luca stole a glance at the man next to her. His well-built body should have given her a sense of safety, but at that moment, Luca wanted nothing more than to run away.
